SPACEDEV, INC.
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
ISSUED AS OF: FEBRUARY 1, 2000 ("DATE OF THE INITIAL ISSUANCE")
THIS CERTIFIES that for value received, Xxxxxxxx Aerospace, (the
"Holder") is entitled to purchase from SPACEDEV, INC., a Colorado corporation
(the "Corporation"), at a purchase price of One Dollar and forty-four ($1.06)
per share (the "Warrant Price"), within thirty-six (36) months from the date of
the initial issuance of this Warrant, one share of Common Stock, par value
$.0001, of the Corporation ("Common Stock") for each Warrant comprising the
total number of Warrants set forth above. The Warrant Price per share shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth herein. The shares of
Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of Warrants are referred to herein as
"Warrant Shares."
This Warrant evidencing the right to purchase an aggregate of up to
28,236 shares of Common Stock, is issued in connection with the agreement
between the Corporation and Holder regarding the purchase of certain electronic
components purchased by the Corporation from the Holder at a reduced price. The
sufficiency and adequacy of the Warrant is hereby acknowledged by Corporation.
SECTION 1
EXERCISE OF WARRANT
-------------------
The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole
at any time or from time to time in part, but not as to a fractional share of
Common Stock, by the completion of the Notice of Exercise attached hereto and by
the surrender of this Warrant (properly endorsed) at the office of the
Corporation as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder hereof at the
address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Corporation, and by payment
to the Corporation of the Warrant Price in cash or by certified or official bank
check, for each share being purchased.
In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a
certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased,
registered in the name of the Holder, or its nominee or other party designated
in the purchase form by the Holder hereof, shall be delivered to the Holder
within thirty (30) business days after the date in which the rights represented
by this Warrant shall have been so exercised; and, unless this Warrant has
expired or has been exercised in full, a new Warrant representing the number of
shares (except a remaining fractional share), if any, with respect to which this
Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder
within such time.
The person in whose name any certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued
upon exercise of this Warrant shall for all purposes be deemed to have become
the Holder of record of such shares on the date on which this Warrant was
surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price, except that, if the date of such
surrender and payment is a date on which the stock transfer books of the
Corporation are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the Holder of
such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the
stock transfer books are open. No fractional shares shall be issued upon
exercise of this Warrant and no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any
exercise on account of any cash dividends on the Common Stock issued upon such
exercise. If any fractional interest in a share of Common Stock would, except
for the provision of this Section 1, be delivered upon such exercise, the
Corporation, in lieu of delivery of a fractional share thereof, shall pay to the
Holder an amount in cash equal to the current market price of such fractional
share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation
(the "Board").
SECTION 2
STOCK SPLITS, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE
--------------------------------------------
In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be split, combined or
consolidated, by dividend, reclassification or otherwise, into a greater or
lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such combination or consolidation and the number of shares purchasable
under this Warrant shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such
combination or consolidation, be proportionately adjusted.
If there shall be effected any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with
another corporation, or a sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation's
assets to another corporation, and if the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled pursuant to the terms of any such transaction to receive stock,
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a
condition of such consolidation, merger or sale, lawful and adequate provisions
shall be made whereby the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right
to receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein
and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable
upon the exercise of such Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as
may be issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of
outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such
Common Stock immediately theretofore so receivable had such consolidation,
merger or sale not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provisions
shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end
that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be,
in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(a) STOCK TO BE RESERVED. The Corporation will at all times reserve and
keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the
purpose of issue upon the exercise of this Warrant as herein provided,
such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant. The Corporation shall from time to time
in accordance with applicable law increase the authorized amount of its
Common Stock if at any time the number of shares of Common Stock
remaining unissued and available for issuance shall not be sufficient
to permit exercise of this Warrant. The Corporation covenants that all
shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and
validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Corporation will
take all such action as may be necessary to assure that all such shares
of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or of any requirements of any national securities
exchange upon which the Common Stock of the Corporation may be listed.
(b) ISSUE TAX. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without deduction to the
Holders of this Warrant for any issuance tax in respect thereof
provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax
which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of
Holder of this Warrant.
2
(c) CLOSING OF BOOKS. The Corporation will at no time close its
transfer books against the transfer of the shares of Common Stock
issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in any manner
which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.
SECTION 3
NOTICES OF RECORD DATES
-----------------------
In the event of:
(1) any taking by the Corporation of a record of the Holders of
any class of securities for the purpose of determining the
Holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or
other distribution (other than cash dividends out of earned
surplus), or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise
acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other
securities or property, or to receive any other right;
(2) any capital reorganization of the Corporation, any
reclassification, or recapitalization of the capital stock of
the Corporation, or any transfer of all or substantially all
the assets of the Corporation to, or consolidation or merger
of the Corporation with or into any other corporation; or
(3) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up of the Corporation;
then and in each such event the Corporation will give notice to the Holder of
this Warrant specifying (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for
the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and stating the amount and
character of such dividend, distribution or right, and (ii) the date on which
any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place,
and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the Holders of record of Common
Stock will be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities
or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification,
recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up. Such notice shall be given at least 10 days and not more than 90
days prior to the date therein specified, and such notice shall state that the
action in question or the record date is subject to the effectiveness of a
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 or to a favorable vote
of shareholders, if either is required.
SECTION 4
NO SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES
------------------------------------
This Warrant shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other
rights as a shareholder of the Corporation. No provision hereof, in the absence
of affirmative action by the Holder hereof to purchase shares of Common Stock,
and no mere enumeration hereon of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof,
shall give rise to any liability of such Holder for the Warrant Price or as a
shareholder of the Corporation, whether such liability is asserted by the
Corporation or by creditors of the Corporation.
