This Repricing Amendment to Common Share Purchase Warrants (this
"Amendment") is entered into effective as of October 18, 2001, by and between
Altair International, Inc. an Ontario corporation (the "Company") Xxxxx Xxxxxx,
an individual, and Toyota on Western, Inc., an Illinois corporation and
affiliate of Xxxxx Xxxxxx. Xxxxx Xxxxxx and Toyota on Western Inc., are
collectively referred to as the "Holders" and separately referred to as a
"Holder."
Background
A. The Holders are affiliated parties, and Xxxxx Xxxxxx is a primary
owner and President of Toyota on Western, Inc.
B. Between December 1999 and August 2000, one or the other of the
Holders purchased the following warrants to purchase common shares of the
Company (1) a Series K-1 Warrant dated December 6, 1999 for 25,000 common
shares, (2) a Series L-1 Warrant dated January 24, 2000 for 25,000 common
shares, (3) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated July 8, 2000 for 15,500 common
shares, (4) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated July 17, 2000 for 9,000 common
shares, (5) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated July 20, 2000 for 25,500 common
shares, (6) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated July 28, 2000 for 34,500 common
shares, (7) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated July 31, 2000 for 13,000 common
shares, (8) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated August 7, 2000 for 26,500 common
shares, (9) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated August 14, 2000 for 30,000 common
shares, and (10) a Series 0000X-0 Xxxxxxx dated August 22, 2000 for 51,000
common shares (the "1999 Warrants"). The offer and sale by the Company of the
1999 Warrants were registered under Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), pursuant to Registration Statement on Form S-3, No.
333-70763, and each such offer and sale was proceeded by a Prospectus dated
March 17, 1999 and a related prospectus supplement.
C. During March 2000 and August 2000, one or the other of the Holders
purchased (1) a Series M-1 Warrant dated March 3, 2000 for 83,333 common shares,
(2) a Series 2000B-1 Warrant dated August 4, 2000 for 187,500 common shares of
the Company, and (3) a Series 2000C-1 Warrant dated August 4, 2000 for 187,500
common shares of the Company (the "2000 Warrants"; collectively with the 1999
Warrants, the "Warrants") from the Company in a private offering exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. The 2000 Warrants are
"restricted securities," as defined under Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act. The resale of the common shares issuable upon exercise of the
2000 Warrants, however, has been registered under the Securities Act pursuant to
Registration Statement on Form S-3, No. 333-54902 (the "Resale Registration
Statement").
D. In order to provide incentive for the Holders to exercise the
Warrants as soon as possible, the Company has agreed to reduce the exercise
price of each of the Warrants to $1.00 for a limited period, after which the
exercise price will again increase to the exercise price set forth in the
respective Warrant, all on and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Amendment.
Agreement
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants set forth
herein and in the Warrants and other good and valuable consideration, the
