VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, StatSure Diagnostic Systems, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer”),
hereby certifies that IM US Holdings, LLC or its registered assigns (the
“Holder”)
is
entitled to subscribe for and purchase, during the Term (as hereinafter
defined), up to One Million Seventy-One Thousand Four Hundred Twenty-Eight
(1,071,428) shares (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided) of the duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of the
Issuer, at an exercise price per share equal to the Warrant Price then in
effect, subject, however, to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth. Capitalized terms used in this Warrant and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the respective meanings specified in Section 9
hereof.
1. Term.
The
term of this Warrant shall commence on October 15, 2007 and shall expire at
5:00
p.m., Eastern Time, on October14, 2012 (such period being the “Term”).
2. Method
of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of New Warrant; Transfer and
Exchange.
(a) Time
of Exercise.
The
purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in
part
during the Term beginning on December 19, 2007.
(b) Method
of Exercise.
The
Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by the surrender
of this Warrant (with the exercise form attached hereto duly executed) at the
principal office of the Issuer, and by the payment to the Issuer of an amount
of
consideration therefor equal to the Warrant Price in effect on the date of
such
exercise multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to
which this Warrant is then being exercised, payable by (i) by certified or
official bank check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Issuer,
(ii) by “cashless exercise” in accordance with the provisions of subsection (c)
of this Section 2, but only when a registration statement under the Securities
Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Stock is not then in effect, or
(iii) by a combination of the foregoing methods of payment selected by the
Holder of this Warrant.
(c) Cashless
Exercise.
Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, commencing upon the
earlier
of (i)
one (1) year following the Original Issue Date, and (ii) the first date on
which
the Holder shall be entitled to sell any Warrant Shares under Rule 144, in
lieu
of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash, the Holder may exercise this
Warrant by a cashless exercise and shall receive the number of shares of Common
Stock equal to an amount (as determined below) by surrender of this Warrant
at
the principal office of the Issuer together with the properly endorsed Notice
of
Exercise in which event the Issuer shall issue to the Holder a number of shares
of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
X
= Y -
(A)(Y)
B
Where
|
X = | the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder. |
Y
=
|
the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of all
of the
Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised,
the
portion of the Warrant being exercised.
|
|
A = | the Warrant Price. | |
B = | the Per Share Market Value of one share of Common Stock. |
(d) Issuance
of Stock Certificates.
In the
event of any exercise of this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, (i) certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock
so
purchased shall, (A) to the extent practicable, be dated the date of such
exercise and (B) delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not
exceeding three (3) Trading Days after such exercise (the “Delivery
Date”)
or, at
the request of the Holder (provided that a registration statement under the
Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Stock is then in effect),
issued and delivered to the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
account on the Holder’s behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission
System (“DWAC”)
within
a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) Trading Days after such exercise,
and
the Holder hereof shall be deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the
shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of the date of such exercise and (ii)
unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant representing the number of shares
of Warrant Stock, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then
have
been exercised (including by way of cashless exercise, if any) shall also be
issued to the Holder hereof at the Issuer’s expense within such time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer or its transfer agent
shall only be obligated to issue and deliver the shares to the DTC on a holder’s
behalf via DWAC if such exercise is in connection with a sale and the Issuer
and
its transfer agent are participating in DTC through the DWAC
system.
2
(e) Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon
Exercise.
In
addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Issuer fails to
cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Stock pursuant to an exercise on or before the Delivery
Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase
(in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver
in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Stock which the Holder
anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”),
then
the Issuer shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the
Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the
shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by
multiplying (A) the number of shares of Warrant Stock that the Issuer was
required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue
times
(B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation
was executed, and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion
of the Warrant and equivalent number of shares of Warrant Stock for which such
exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common
Stock that would have been issued had the Issuer timely complied with its
exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder
purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a
Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with
an
aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under
clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Issuer shall be required
to
pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Issuer written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together
with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the
Issuer. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other
remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the Issuer’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to
the
terms hereof.
(f) Transferability
of Warrant.
Subject
to Section 2(h) hereof, this Warrant may be transferred by a Holder without
the
consent of the Issuer. If transferred pursuant to this paragraph, this Warrant
may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by the Holder hereof in person
or
by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal
office of the Issuer, properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment
in the form attached hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax
or
other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer. This Warrant is
exchangeable at the principal office of the Issuer for Warrants to purchase
the
same aggregate number of shares of Warrant Stock, each new Warrant to represent
the right to purchase such number of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder
hereof shall designate at the time of such exchange. All Warrants issued on
transfers or exchanges shall refer to the Original Issue Date and shall be
identical with this Warrant except as to the number of shares of Warrant Stock
issuable pursuant thereto.
(g)
Continuing Rights of Holder.
The
Issuer will, at the time of or at any time after each exercise of this Warrant
upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if
any, of its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which
such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance
with
the terms of this Warrant, provided that if any such Holder shall fail to make
any such request, the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of
the
Issuer to afford such rights to such Holder.
3
(h) Compliance
with Securities Laws.
(i) The
Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant
and
the shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired
solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party,
and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise
dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon
exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or
an
exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable state
securities laws.
(ii) Except
as
provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all certificates
representing shares of Warrant Stock issued upon exercise hereof shall be
stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following
form:
THIS
WARRANT AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES
ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE ISSUER SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES
UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS
IS NOT REQUIRED.
(iii) The
Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or certificates representing any of the
Warrant Stock, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to
making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice
to the Issuer describing the manner and terms of such transfer. Such proposed
transfer will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received
an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that
the
registration of such securities under the Securities Act is not required in
connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under
the
Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Issuer
with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has become effective under
the
Securities Act and the Holder has represented that the Warrant Stock has been
or
will be sold, (iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the
Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the Holder
provides the Issuer with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Issuer
has
received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the
effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky”
laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition,
or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been
effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer will
respond to any such notice from a holder within three (3) business days. In
the
case of any proposed transfer under this Section 2(h), the Issuer will use
reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue
sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in
any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would
subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it
is
not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of
any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Issuer.
The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(h) shall be in addition
to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer
contained in any other section of this Warrant. Whenever a certificate
representing the Warrant Stock is required to be issued to a the Holder without
a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Warrant
Stock, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer
agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Stock to the Holder by crediting
the account of the Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its DWAC system (to
the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Warrant or the Purchase
Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer or its
transfer agent shall only be obligated to issue and deliver the shares to the
DTC on a holder’s behalf via DWAC if such exercise is in connection with a sale
and the Issuer and its transfer agent are participating in DTC through the
DWAC
system.
4
(iv) Accredited
Investor Status.
In no
event may the Holder exercise this Warrant in whole or in part unless the Holder
is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities
Act.
3. Stock
Fully Paid; Reservation and Listing of Shares; Covenants.
(a) Stock
Fully Paid.
The
Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all shares of Warrant
Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or otherwise
hereunder will, when issued in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from
all
taxes, liens and charges created by or through the Issuer. The Issuer further
covenants and agrees that during the period within which this Warrant may be
exercised, the Issuer will at all times have authorized and reserved for the
purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a number of shares of Common
Stock equal to at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this
Warrant.
(b) Reservation.
If any
shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of
this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder require registration or
qualification with any governmental authority under any federal or state law
before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its
best
efforts as expeditiously as possible at its expense to cause such shares to
be
duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer shall list any shares of Common
Stock on any securities exchange or market it will, at its expense, list
thereon, maintain and increase when necessary such listing, of, all shares
of
Warrant Stock from time to time issued upon exercise of this Warrant or as
otherwise provided hereunder (provided that such Warrant Stock has been
registered pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act then
in
effect), and, to the extent permissible under the applicable securities exchange
rules, all unissued shares of Warrant Stock which are at any time issuable
hereunder, so long as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed. The Issuer
will also so list on each securities exchange or market, and will maintain
such
listing of, any other securities which the Holder of this Warrant shall be
entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant if at the time any
securities of the same class shall be listed on such securities exchange or
market by the Issuer.
5
(c) Covenants.
The
Issuer shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the
Articles of Incorporation or the by-laws of the Issuer, or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue
or
sale of securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder
hereof against dilution (to the extent specifically provided herein) or
impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer will
(i) not permit the par value, if any, of its Common Stock to exceed the then
effective Warrant Price, (ii) not amend or modify any provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Issuer in any manner that would
adversely affect the rights of the Holder of this Warrant, (iii) take all such
action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the Issuer may validly
and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, free and
clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions (other than as
provided herein) upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iv) use its best
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably
necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
(d) Loss,
Theft, Destruction of Warrant.
Upon
receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the
loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such
loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory
to the Issuer or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Issuer will make and deliver, in lieu of
such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and
representing the right to purchase the same number of shares of Common Stock.
(e) Adjustment
of Warrant Price The price at which such shares of Warrant Stock may be
purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from
time
to time as set forth in this Section 3. The Issuer shall give the Holder notice
of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this
Section 4 in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section
4.
(f) Adjustments
for Stock Splits and Combinations.
If the
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, effect
a
stock split of the outstanding Common Stock, the Warrant Price shall be
proportionately decreased. If the Company shall at any time or from time to
time
after the Issuance Date, combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the
Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustments under this
Section 3(f) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock
split or combination becomes effective.
6
(g) Adjustments
for Certain Dividends and Distributions.
If the
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, make
or
issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common
Stock, then, and in each event, the Warrant Price shall be decreased as of
the
time of such issuance or, in the event such record date shall have been fixed,
as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Warrant
Price then in effect by a fraction:
(1) the
numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close
of
business on such record date; and
(2) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close
of
business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
in payment of such dividend or distribution.
(h) Adjustment
for Other Dividends and Distributions.
If the
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, and
prior to exercise, make or issue or set a record date for the determination
of
holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution
payable in securities of the Company other than cash or shares of Common Stock,
then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the applicable Warrant
Price
shall be made and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the Warrant Price
or otherwise) so that the Holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise
thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereon,
the number of securities of the Company which the Holder would have received
had
this Warrant been exercised on the date of such event and had thereafter, during
the period from the date of such event to and including the Exercise Date,
retained such securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during
such period), giving application to all adjustments called for during such
period under this Section 3(h) with respect to the rights of the Holder;
provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such
dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the
date
fixed therefor, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section
3(h) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and
provided further, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the Holder
simultaneously receives (i) a dividend or other distribution of shares of Common
Stock in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as the Holder
would have received if this Warrant had been exercised in full on the date
of
such event or (ii) a dividend or other distribution of shares equal to the
number of additional shares of Common Stock being issued with respect to each
share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution.
(i) Recapitalization,
Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
7
(i) In
case
the Issuer after the Original Issue Date shall do any of the following (each,
a
“Triggering
Event”):
(a)
consolidate or merge with or into any other Person and the Issuer shall not
be
the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or
(b)
permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Issuer and the
Issuer shall be the continuing or Surviving Person but, in connection with
such
consolidation or merger, any Capital Stock of the Issuer shall be changed into
or exchanged for Securities of any other Person or cash or any other property,
or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any
other Person, or (d) effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of
its
Capital Stock, then, and in the case of each such Triggering Event, proper
provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner
provided in this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled upon
the
exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such Triggering Event,
to
the extent this Warrant is not exercised prior to such Triggering Event, to
receive at the Warrant Price in effect at the time immediately prior to the
consummation of such Triggering Event in lieu of the Common Stock issuable
upon
such exercise of this Warrant prior to such Triggering Event, the Securities,
cash and property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the
consummation of such Triggering Event if such Holder had exercised the rights
represented by this Warrant immediately prior thereto (including the right
of a
shareholder to elect the type of consideration it will receive upon a Triggering
Event), subject to adjustments (subsequent to such corporate action) as nearly
equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for elsewhere in this Section
3; provided, however, in the event that the Per Share Market Value is less
than
the Warrant Price at the time of such Triggering Event, the Holder shall receive
an amount in cash equal to the value of this Warrant calculated in accordance
with the Black-Scholes formula. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary,
this Section 3(i)(i) shall only apply if the surviving entity pursuant to any
such Triggering Event is a company that has a class of equity securities
registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
its
common stock is listed or quoted on a national securities exchange, national
automated quotation system or the OTC Bulletin Board. In the event that the
surviving entity pursuant to any such Triggering Event is not a public company
that is registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
or its common stock is not listed or quoted on a national securities exchange,
national automated quotation system or the OTC Bulletin Board, then the Holder
shall have the right to demand that the Issuer pay to the Holder an amount
in
cash equal to the value of this Warrant calculated in accordance with the
Black-Scholes formula.
(ii) Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Warrant to the contrary and so long as the surviving
entity pursuant to any Triggering Event is a company that has a class of equity
securities registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and its common stock is listed or quoted on a national securities
exchange, national automated quotation system or the OTC Bulletin Board, a
Triggering Event shall not be deemed to have occurred if, prior to the
consummation thereof, each Person (other than the Issuer) which may be required
to deliver any Securities, cash or property upon the exercise of this Warrant
as
provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably
satisfactory to, the Holder of this Warrant, (A) the obligations of the Issuer
under this Warrant (and if the Issuer shall survive the consummation of such
Triggering Event, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release
the Issuer from, any continuing obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant)
and (B) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such Securities, cash or
property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(i),
such Holder shall be entitled to receive, and such Person shall have similarly
delivered to such Holder an opinion of counsel for such Person, which counsel
shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, or in the alternative, a
written acknowledgement executed by the President or Chief Financial Officer
of
the Issuer, stating that this Warrant shall thereafter continue in full force
and effect and the terms hereof (including, without limitation, all of the
provisions of this Section 3(i)) shall be applicable to the Securities, cash
or
property which such Person may be required to deliver upon any exercise of
this
Warrant or the exercise of any rights pursuant hereto.
8
(j) Other
Provisions applicable to Adjustments under this Section.
The
following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and
the
Warrant Price then in effect provided for in this Section 4:
(i) When
Adjustments to Be Made.
The
adjustments required by this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often
as
any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any
adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable that would otherwise be required may be postponed (except in the
case of a subdivision or combination of shares of the Common Stock, as provided
for in Section 3(i)) up to, but not beyond the date of exercise if such
adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made adds
or subtracts less than one percent (1%) of the shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment.
Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount (except
as
aforesaid) which is postponed shall be carried forward and made as soon as
such
adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 4 and
not
previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of
exercise. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed
to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its
occurrence.
(ii) Fractional
Interests.
In
computing adjustments under this Section 4, fractional interests in Common
Stock
shall be taken into account to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a
share.
(iii) When
Adjustment Not Required.
If the
Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose
of
entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase
rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders
thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution,
subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required
by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made
in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.
(k) Form
of Warrant after Adjustments.
The
form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustments in the
Warrant Price or the number and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant.
(l) Escrow
of Warrant Stock.
If
after any property becomes distributable pursuant to this Section 3 by reason
of
the taking of any record of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the
occurrence of the event for which such record is taken, and the Holder exercises
this Warrant, any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise by reason of
such adjustment shall be deemed the last shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercised (notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary
herein) and such shares or other property shall be held in escrow for the Holder
by the Issuer to be issued to the Holder upon and to the extent that the event
actually takes place, upon payment of the current Warrant Price. Notwithstanding
any other provision to the contrary herein, if the event for which such record
was taken fails to occur or is rescinded, then such escrowed shares shall be
cancelled by the Issuer and escrowed property returned.
9
4. Notice
of Adjustments.
Whenever the Warrant Price or Warrant Share Number shall be adjusted pursuant
to
Section 3 hereof (for purposes of this Section 4, each an “adjustment”),
the
Issuer shall cause its Chief Financial Officer to prepare and execute a
certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the
adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment
was calculated (including a description of the basis on which the Board made
any
determination hereunder), and the Warrant Price and Warrant Share Number after
giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate
to
be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant promptly after each adjustment.
Any
dispute between the Issuer and the Holder of this Warrant with respect to the
matters set forth in such certificate may at the option of the Holder of this
Warrant be submitted to a national or regional accounting firm reasonably
acceptable to the Issuer and the Holder, provided that the Issuer shall have
ten
(10) days after receipt of notice from such Holder of its selection of such
firm
to object thereto, in which case such Holder shall select another such firm
and
the Issuer shall have no such right of objection. The firm selected by the
Holder of this Warrant as provided in the preceding sentence shall be instructed
to deliver a written opinion as to such matters to the Issuer and such Holder
within thirty (30) days after submission to it of such dispute. Such opinion
shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. The costs and expenses of
the
initial accounting firm shall be paid equally by the Issuer and the Holder
and,
in the case of an objection by the Issuer, the costs and expenses of the
subsequent accounting firm shall be paid in full by the Issuer.
5. Fractional
Shares.
No
fractional shares of Warrant Stock will be issued in connection with any
exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional shares, the Issuer shall round
the number of shares to be issued upon exercise up to the nearest whole number
of shares.
6. Ownership
Cap and Exercise Restriction.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, at no time
may a Holder of this Warrant exercise this Warrant if the number of shares
of
Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such exercise would exceed, when
aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock owned by such Holder at such
