COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase __________ Shares of Common Stock of
SPECTRE GAMING, INC.
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the "Warrant") certifies
that, for value received, ____________ (the "Holder"), is entitled, upon the
terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter
set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the "Initial Exercise Date")
and on or prior to the close of business on the five year anniversary of the
Initial Exercise Date (the "Termination Date") but not thereafter, to subscribe
for and purchase from Spectre Gaming, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the
"Company"), up to ______ shares (the "Warrant Shares") of Common Stock, par
value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The purchase price
of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise
Price, as defined in Section 2(b).
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase
Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), dated October 27, 2005, among the Company
and the purchasers signatory thereto.
Section 2. Exercise.
a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented
by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on
or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date
by delivery to the Company of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice
of Exercise Form annexed hereto (or such other office or agency of the
Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder
at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company);
provided, however, within 5 Trading Days of the date said Notice of
Exercise is delivered to the Company, if this Warrant is exercised in
full, the Holder shall have surrendered this Warrant to the Company and
the Company shall have received payment of the aggregate Exercise Price of
the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on
a United States bank. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the
Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available
hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full. Partial exercises of
this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of
Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the
outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount
equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and
the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares
purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any
objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within 2 Business Days of receipt
of such notice. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of
the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of
manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this
Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this
paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares
hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder
at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
b) Exercise Price. The exercise price of the Common Stock under this
Warrant shall be $1.84, subject to adjustment hereunder (the "Exercise
Price").
c) Cashless Exercise. If at any time after one year from the date of
issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration Statement
registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the
Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised at
such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which the Holder shall be
entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal
to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date
of such election;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant by means
of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the
Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via
cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c).
d) Exercise Limitations; Xxxxxx's Restrictions. The Company shall
not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the
right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2(c) or
otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after
exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder's affiliates, and any
2
other person or entity acting as a group together with such Holder or any
of such Holder's affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of
Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to
such issuance. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its
affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of
such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of
Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining,
nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Holder or
any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or
nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including,
without limitation, any other Preferred Stock or Warrants) subject to a
limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained
herein beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its affiliates. Except
as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section
2(d)(i), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by a Holder that the Company
is not representing to such Holder that such calculation is in compliance
with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and such Holder is solely
responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance
therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section
2(d) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in
relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which a portion
of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of a
Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be
each Holder's determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in
relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which portion of
this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate
percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify
or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a
determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section
2(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as
reflected in (x) the Company's most recent Form 10-QSB or Form 10-KSB, as
the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or
(z) any other notice by the Company or the Company's Transfer Agent
setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the
written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading
Days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of
Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the
conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this
Warrant, by such Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The provisions
of this Section 2(d) may be waived by such Xxxxxx, at the election of such
Holder, upon not less than 61 days' prior notice to the Company, and the
provisions of this Section 2(d) shall continue to apply until such 61st
day (or such later date, as determined by such Holder, as may be specified
in such notice of waiver). The provisions of this paragraph shall be
implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms
of this Section 2(d) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof)
3
which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended 4.99% beneficial
ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements
necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such 4.99% limitation.
The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor
holder of this Warrant. The holders of Common Stock of the Company shall
be third party beneficiaries of this Section 2(d) and the Company may not
waive this Section 2(d) without the consent of holders of a majority of
its Common Stock.
e) Mechanics of Exercise.
i. Authorization of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that
all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of
the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than
taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with
such issue).
ii. Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise. Certificates for
shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer
agent of the Company to the Holder by crediting the account of the
Holder's prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its
Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system if the Company
is a participant in such system, and otherwise by physical delivery
to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise
within 3 Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice
of Exercise Form, surrender of this Warrant (if required) and
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above ("Warrant
Share Delivery Date"). This Warrant shall be deemed to have been
exercised on the date the Exercise Price is received by the Company.
The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder
or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be
deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all
purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment
to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be
paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(e)(vii) prior to
the issuance of such shares, have been paid.
iii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant
shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request
of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the
time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing
Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the
rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called
for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects
be identical with this Warrant.
4
iv. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause its
transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to this
Section 2(e)(iv) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder
will have the right to rescind such exercise.
v. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver
Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights
available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause its transfer
agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before
the Warrant Share 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 Shares which the Holder
anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a "Buy-In"), then the
Company 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 Warrant Shares that
the Company 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 Warrant Shares 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 Company 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 Company shall be required to pay
the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company 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 Company. Nothing herein shall
limit a 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 Company's failure to timely deliver certificates representing
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required
pursuant to the terms hereof.
vi. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or
scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder
would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the
Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the
Exercise Price.
5
vii. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for
Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any
issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the
issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall
be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the
name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by
the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the
Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be
accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by
the Holder; and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the
payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax
incidental thereto.
viii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its
stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely
exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 3. Certain Adjustments.
a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while
this Warrant is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise make a
distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other
equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock
(which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common
Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Warrant), (B) subdivides
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (C)
combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issues by
reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock
of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied
by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately
before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section
3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective
date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
b) Subsequent Equity Sales. If the Company or any Subsidiary
thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding,
shall offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or offer, sell or grant
any right to reprice its securities, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or
announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other
disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any
Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at an effective price per share
less than the then Exercise Price (such lower price, the "Base Share
Price" and such issuances collectively, a "Dilutive Issuance"), as
adjusted hereunder (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase
6
price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or
exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per
share which is issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to
receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share which is
less than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have
occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the Dilutive
Issuance), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced and only reduced to
equal the Base Share Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable
hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price
payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise
Price, shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price prior to such
adjustment. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
adjustments shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 3(b) in
respect of an Exempt Issuance. The Company shall notify the Holder in
writing, no later than 2 Trading Days following the issuance of any Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this section, indicating
therein the applicable issuance price, or of applicable reset price,
exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice the
"Dilutive Issuance Notice"). For purposes of clarification, whether or not
the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section
3(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, after the date of such
Dilutive Issuance the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Warrant
Shares based upon the Base Share Price regardless of whether the Holder
accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the Notice of Exercise.
c) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time prior to the
Termination Date, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not
to Holders of the Warrants) evidences of its indebtedness or assets
(including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for
or purchase any security other than the Common Stock (which shall be
subject to Section 3(b)), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall
be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be
the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which
the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then per
share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets
or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding
share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good
faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement
provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of
indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one
share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such
distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the
record date mentioned above.
d) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the
Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company effects any sale of
all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related
transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the
Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of
Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other
securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any
reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange
7
pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or
exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a
"Fundamental Transaction"), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this
Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant
Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior
to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the
Holder, (a) upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common
Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it
is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the
"Alternate Consideration") receivable upon or as a result of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event or (b) if the
Company is acquired in an all cash transaction, cash equal to the value of
this Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes option
pricing formula. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of
the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such
Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration
issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental
Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the
Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative
value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If
holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or
property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder
shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it
receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental
Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing
provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such
Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent
with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to
exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any
agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall
include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply
with the provisions of this Section 3(d) and insuring that this Warrant
(or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any
subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made
to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock
deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of
the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
issued and outstanding.
f) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. The Company may at any time
during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to
any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of
Directors of the Company.
g) Notice to Holders.
i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price
is adjusted pursuant to this Section 3, the Company shall promptly
mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after
such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts
8
requiring such adjustment. If the Company issues a variable rate
security, despite the prohibition thereon in the Purchase Agreement,
the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise
price at which such securities may be converted or exercised in the
case of a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement).
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Xxxxxx. If (A) the Company
shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common
Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash
dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company
shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of
capital stock of any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any
stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any
reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to
which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory
share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other
securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the
voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of
the affairs of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall
cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall
appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20
calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date
hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a
record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not
to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of
record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption,
rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the
date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of
record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common
Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange; provided, that the failure to mail such notice or any
defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the
validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such
notice. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the
20-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective
date of the event triggering such notice.
Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.
a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable
securities laws and the conditions set forth in Sections 5(a) and 4(d)
hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement,
this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in
9
part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the
Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially
in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or
attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the
making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such
payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants
in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or
denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue
to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not
so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if
properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of
Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other
Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company,
together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in
which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or
attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer
which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall
execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant
or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice.
c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon
records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "Warrant
Register"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The
Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the
absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any
distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual
notice to the contrary.
d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this
Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of
this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities
or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such
transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case
may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion
shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in
comparable transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be made
without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state
securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute
and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance
acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an "accredited
investor" as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7), or (a)(8)
promulgated under the Securities Act or a qualified institutional buyer as
defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to
compliance with applicable laws and Section 4 of this Warrant, this
Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, at
the office or agency of the Company by the Holder in person or by duly
authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant together with the
Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed. The transferee shall
sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Company.
10
b) No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not
entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder
of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this
Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (or by means of a
cashless exercise), the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed
to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the
close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or payment.
c) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company
covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in
case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably
satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include
the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such
Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and
deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of
such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
d) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day
for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or
granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such
action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
e) Authorized Shares.
The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is
outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of
the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under
this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of
this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are
charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and
issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will
take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that
such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without
violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any
requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may
be listed.
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the
Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without
limitation, amending its articles of incorporation or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary
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
11
rights of Xxxxxx as set forth in this Warrant against impairment.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will
(a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the
amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such
increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary
or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally
issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise
of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be
necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under
this Warrant.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment
in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is
exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all
such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as
may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having
jurisdiction thereof.
f) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction,
validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
g) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares
acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have
restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
h) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or
failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall
operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Xxxxxx's rights,
powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder
terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly
fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any
material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such
amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of
appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due
pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or
remedies hereunder.
i) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or
permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be
delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase
Agreement.
j) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of
any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or purchase
Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of
Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price
of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such
liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
12
k) Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees
that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and
hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance
that a remedy at law would be adequate.
l) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws,
this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure
to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and
the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this
Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to
time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by any such Holder or holder
of Warrant Shares.
m) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the
provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the
Holder.
n) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited
by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to
the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the
remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
o) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a
part of this Warrant.
