Form of Common Stock Warrant Agreement
COMMON STOCK WARRANT AGREEMENT, dated as of between United HealthCare
Corporation, a Minnesota corporation (hereinafter called the "Company"), and
____________ having a corporate trust office in ____________, as warrant agent
(hereinafter called the "Warrant Agent").
WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue [Class ____] Purchase Warrants
(hereinafter called the "Warrants") entitling the holders thereof to purchase an
aggregate of ____ shares of Common Stock of the Company (par value $____ per
share) (hereinafter called the "Shares") at an initial cash purchase price of
$____ per Share at any time [after __________ and] prior to [____] p.m., [City]
time, on _______ (hereinafter called the "Expiration Date") (unless extended as
provided in Section 9A hereof); and
[IF WARRANTS ARE ATTACHED TO OTHER SECURITIES, INSERT -
WHEREAS, the Warrants will be offered in Units, each of which consists of
___________ and Warrants to purchase ________ Shares; and]
WHEREAS, the Company desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the
Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing so to act, in connection with the
issuance, registration, transfer, exchange and exercise of Warrants to be issued
from time to time by the Company,
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements
herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Appointment of Warrant Agent. The Company hereby appoints the
Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company in accordance with the
instructions hereinafter in this Agreement set forth, and the Warrant Agent
hereby accepts such appointment.
SECTION 2. Form of Warrant. The text of the Warrants and the form of
election to purchase Shares to be set forth on the reverse thereof shall be
substantially as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. Each Warrant shall,
subject to the terms of this Warrant Agreement, entitle the registered holder
thereof to initially purchase the number of Shares specified therein at an
initial exercise price of $_____ per Share; provided, however, that the Warrant
Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants are
subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events, all as hereinafter
provided. The Warrants shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the manual
or facsimile signature of the present or any future Chairman of the Board,
President or Vice President of the Company, under its seal, affixed or in
facsimile, and by the manual or facsimile signature of the present or any future
Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company.
The Company shall promptly notify the Warrant Agent from time to time in
writing of the number of Warrants to be issued and furnish written instructions
in connection therewith signed by an executive officer of the Company; such
notification and instructions may, but need not be, in the form of a general or
continuing authorization to the Warrant Agent.
The Warrants shall be dated by the Warrant Agent as of the date of each
initial issuance, and as of the date of issuance thereof upon any transfer or
exchange thereof.
SECTION 3. Countersignature and Registration. The Warrant Agent shall
maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrants. Upon the
initial issuance of the Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall issue and register the
Warrants in the names of the respective registered holders thereof. The Warrants
shall be countersigned by the Warrant Agent (or by any successor to the Warrant
Agent then acting as warrant agent under this Agreement) and shall not be valid
for any purpose unless so countersigned. Such Warrants may be so countersigned,
however, by the Warrant Agent (or by its successor as warrant agent) and be
delivered by the Warrant Agent, notwithstanding that the persons whose manual or
facsimile signatures appear thereon as proper officers of the Company shall have
ceased to be such officers at the time of such countersignature or delivery.
Upon issuance of any Warrant, the Company will present the same, or cause the
same to be presented, to the Warrant Agent for countersignature of such Warrant.
SECTION 4. Transfers and Exchanges. The Warrant Agent shall transfer, from
time to time, any outstanding Warrants upon the books to be maintained by the
Warrant Agent for that purpose, upon the surrender thereof for transfer properly
endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer. Upon any such
transfer, a new Warrant of like tenor shall be issued to the transferee and the
surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Warrant Agent. All such Warrants so
canceled shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Company from time to
time. The Warrants may be exchanged at the option of the holder thereof, when
surrendered at the office in of the Warrant Agent, for another Warrant, or other
Warrants of different denominations, of like tenor and representing in the
aggregate the right to purchase a like number of Shares. The Warrant Agent is
hereby irrevocably authorized to countersign and deliver, in accordance with the
provisions of this Section and Section 3 of this Agreement, such new Warrants
required pursuant to the provisions of this Section, and the Company, whenever
required by the Warrant Agent, will supply the Warrant Agent with Warrants duly
executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.
[IF THE WARRANTS ARE ATTACHED TO OTHER SECURITIES, INSERT -
Notwithstanding the foregoing, until ____________, the Warrants shall not
be transferable apart from the __________ to which they are attached, any
transfer of the ___________ shall be deemed a transfer of the Warrants attached
thereto, and any attempt to transfer the Warrants apart from the _________ shall
be void and of no effect. Each Warrant shall contain a legend to the foregoing
effect.]
- 2 -
SECTION 5. Exercise of Warrants. The registered holder of each Warrant
shall have the right, which may be exercised as in such Warrant expressed, to
purchase from the Company (and the Company shall issue and sell to such
registered holder) the number of Shares specified in such Warrants, upon
surrender to the Company, at the office in _______________ of the Warrant Agent
of such Warrant, with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof
duly filled in and signed, and upon payment to the Warrant Agent for the account
of the Company of the Warrant Exercise Price, determined in accordance with the
provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement, for the number of Shares in respect
of which such Warrant is then exercised. Payment of such Warrant Exercise Price
may be made in cash, or by certified check or bank draft or postal or express
money order, payable in United States dollars, to the order of the Warrant
Agent. No adjustment shall be made for any dividends on any Shares issuable upon
exercise of any Warrant. Subject to Section 6, upon such surrender of Warrants,
and payment of the Warrant Exercise Price as aforesaid, the Company shall issue
and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written
order of the registered holder of such Warrants, and in such name or names as
such registered holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the
number of full Shares so purchased upon the exercise of such Warrants, together
with cash, as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement, in respect of any
fraction of a Share otherwise issuable upon such surrender. Such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to
be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such
Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the
Warrant Exercise Price as aforesaid; provided, however, that if, at the date of
surrender of such Warrants and payment of such Warrant Exercise Price, the
transfer books for the Shares purchasable upon the exercise of such Warrants
shall be closed, no such surrender of such Warrants and no such payment of such
Warrant Exercise Price shall be effective to constitute the person so designated
to be named therein as the holder of record of such Shares on such date, but
shall be effective to constitute such person as the holder of record of such
Shares for all purposes at the opening of business on the next succeeding day on
which the transfer books for the Shares purchasable upon the exercise of such
Warrants shall be opened, and the certificates for the Shares in respect of
which such Warrants are then exercised shall be issuable as of the date on which
such books shall next be opened, and until such date the Company shall be under
no duty to deliver any certificate for such Shares. The rights of purchase
represented by the Warrants shall be exercisable, at the election of the
registered holders thereof, either as an entirety or from time to time for part
only of the Shares specified therein and, in the event that any Warrant is
exercised in respect of less than all of the Shares specified therein at any
time prior to the Expiration Date of the Warrants, a new Warrant or Warrants of
like tenor will be issued for the remaining number of Shares specified in the
Warrant so surrendered, and the Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized
to countersign and to deliver the required new Warrants pursuant to the
provisions of this Section and of Section 3 of this Agreement, and the Company,
whenever required by the Warrant Agent, will supply the Warrant Agent with
Warrants duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.
SECTION 6. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp
taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Shares issuable upon the exercise
of Warrants; provided,
- 3 -
however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which
may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of
any certificates for Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder
of Warrants in respect of which such Shares are issued and the Company shall not
be required to issue and deliver the certificates for such Shares unless and
until the holder has paid to the Company the amount of any tax which may be
payable in respect of any transfer involved in such issuance or shall establish
to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
SECTION 7. Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case any of the Warrants shall
be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company will issue and the Warrant
Agent will countersign and deliver in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the
Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing
an equivalent right or interest, but only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory
to the Company and the Warrant Agent of such loss, theft or destruction of such
Warrants and indemnity, if requested, also satisfactory to them. Applicants for
such substitute Warrants shall also comply with such other reasonable
regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company or the Warrant
Agent may prescribe. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original
contractual obligation of the Company whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen,
mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
SECTION 8. Reservation of Shares, etc. Prior to the issuance of any
Warrants there shall have been reserved, and the Company shall at all times
through the Expiration Date keep reserved, out of its authorized and unissued
Common Stock, a number of Shares sufficient to provide for the exercise of the
rights of purchase represented by the Warrants, and the Transfer Agent for the
Shares and every subsequent Transfer Agent for the Shares issuable upon the
exercise of any of the rights of purchase aforesaid are hereby irrevocably
authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized and
unissued Shares as shall be requisite for such purpose. The Company will keep a
copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent for the Shares and with
every subsequent Transfer Agent for the Shares issuable upon the exercise of the
rights of purchase represented by the Warrants. The Warrant Agent is hereby
irrevocably authorized to requisition from time to time from such Transfer Agent
certificates required to honor outstanding Warrants that have been exercised.
The Company will supply such Transfer Agent with duly executed certificates for
such purpose and will itself provide or otherwise make available any cash which
may be issuable as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement. All Warrants
surrendered in the exercise of the rights thereby evidenced or surrendered for
transfer, exchange or partial exercise shall be canceled by the Warrant Agent
and shall thereafter be delivered to the Company.
SECTION 9. Warrant Price; Adjustments. A. The warrant price per share at
which Shares shall be purchasable upon exercise of Warrants (herein called the
"Warrant Exercise Price") to and including the Expiration Date (unless the
Expiration Date is extended as provided below in this Section 9A) shall be $____
per share, or, if adjusted as provided in this Section, shall be such price as
so adjusted. The Warrants will not be exercisable prior to [the close of
- 4 -
business on the date of any initial issuance thereof] [______] and will expire
at [______] p.m., [City] time, on the Expiration Date; provided that the Company
reserves the right to, and may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from
time to time, at such time or times as the Company so determines, extend the
Expiration Date of the Warrants for such periods of time as it chooses; further
provided that in no case may the Expiration Date of the Warrants (as extended)
be extended beyond five years from the Expiration Date set forth above. Whenever
the Expiration Date of the Warrants is so extended, the Company shall at least
20 days prior to the then Expiration Date cause to be mailed to the Warrant
Agent and the registered holders of the Warrants in accordance with the
provisions of Section 17 hereof a notice stating that the Expiration Date has
been extended and setting forth the new Expiration Date.
B. The above provision is, however, subject to the following:
(1) The warrant purchase price, the number of Shares purchasable upon
exercise of each Warrant and the number of Warrants outstanding shall be
subject to adjustment as follows:
(a) In case the Company shall at any time after the date of this
Agreement (i) pay a dividend, or make a distribution, on the Common
Stock which is payable in shares of its capital stock (whether shares
of Common Stock or of capital stock of any other class), (ii)
subdivide or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of securities (including shares of Common Stock), or
(iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares (including shares of Common Stock),
the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant
immediately prior to the occurrence of such event shall be adjusted so
that the holder of each Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon
payment of the warrant purchase price the aggregate number of shares
of the Company which, if such Warrant had been exercised immediately
prior to the occurrence of such event, such holder would have owned or
have been entitled to receive immediately after the occurrence of such
event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subparagraph (a) shall
become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a
dividend and shall become effective immediately after the effective
date in the case of a subdivision or combination. If, as a result of
an adjustment made pursuant to this subparagraph (a), the holder of
any Warrant thereafter exercised shall become entitled to receive
shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the
Board of Directors of the Company (whose determination shall be
conclusive) shall determine the allocation between or among shares of
such classes of capital stock.
- 5 -
In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made
pursuant to this subparagraph (a), the holder of any Warrant
thereafter exercised shall become entitled to receive any shares or
other securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock,
thereafter the number of such other shares so received upon exercise
of any Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a
manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the
provisions with respect to the shares of Common Stock contained in
this paragraph, and other provisions of this paragraph 9B(1) with
respect to the shares of Common Stock shall apply on like terms to any
such other shares or other securities.
(b) In case the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance
of rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling
them (for a period expiring within 45 days after such record date) to
subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share less than
the current market price per share of Common Stock (as defined in
subparagraph (e) below) at such record date, the warrant purchase
price shall be determined by multiplying the warrant purchase price in
effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of Shares of Common Stock
outstanding on such record date plus the number of Shares of Common
Stock which the aggregate offering price of the total number of Shares
so offered would purchase at such current market price, and the
denominator of which shall be the number of Shares of Common Stock
outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Shares
of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase. Such adjustment
shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, and
shall become effective immediately after such record date. In
determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to
subscribe for or purchase shares of common stock at less than such
current market price, and in determining the aggregate offering price
of such shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration
received by the Company for such rights or warrants, the value of such
consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of
Directors of the Company. Common Stock owned by or held for the
account of the Company or any majority owned subsidiary shall not be
deemed outstanding for the purpose of any adjustment required under
this subparagraph (b).
(c) In case the Company shall fix a record date for making a
distribution to all holders of its Common Stock of evidences of its
indebtedness or assets (excluding regular quarterly or other periodic
or recurring cash dividends or distributions and cash dividends or
distributions paid from retained earnings or referred to in
subparagraph (a) above) or rights or warrants to subscribe or warrants
to purchase
- 6 -
(excluding those referred to in subparagraph (b) above), then in each
such case the warrant purchase price shall be determined by
multiplying the warrant purchase price in effect immediately prior to
such record date by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be
such current market price (as defined in subparagraph (e) below) per
Share of Common Stock on such record date, less the then fair market
value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose
determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of the assets or
evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such subscription
rights or warrants applicable to one share of the Common Stock and (y)
the denominator of which shall be the current market price per share
of the Common Stock on such record date. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever such a record date is fixed and shall become
effective immediately after such record date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Company shall distribute any rights
or warrants to acquire capital stock ("Rights") pursuant to this
subparagraph (c), the distribution of separate certificates
representing such Rights subsequent to their initial distribution
(whether or not such distribution shall have occurred prior to the
date of the issuance of such Warrants) shall be deemed to be the
distribution of such Rights for purposes of this subparagraph (c),
provided that the Company may, in lieu of making any adjustment
pursuant to this subparagraph (c) upon a distribution of separate
certificates representing such Rights, make proper provision so that
each holder of such Warrants who exercises such Warrants (or any
portion thereof) (A) before the record date for such distribution of
separate certificates shall be entitled to receive upon such exercise
shares of Common Stock issued with Rights and (B) after such record
date and prior to the expiration, redemption or termination of such
Rights shall be entitled to receive upon such exercise, in addition to
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, the same
number of such Rights as would a holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock that such Warrants so exercised would have entitled the
holder thereof to purchase in accordance with the terms and provisions
of and applicable to the Rights if such Warrants were exercised
immediately prior to the record date for such distribution. Common
Stock owned by or held for the account of the Company or any majority
owned subsidiary shall not be deemed outstanding for the purpose of
any adjustment required under this subparagraph (c).
(d) After each adjustment of the number of shares purchasable
upon exercise of each Warrant pursuant to subparagraph 9B(1)(a), the
Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying such Warrant
Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction of
which the numerator shall be the number of Shares purchasable upon
exercise of
- 7 -
each Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and the denominator
of which shall be the number of Shares so purchasable immediately
thereafter. After each adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price
pursuant to subparagraph 9B(1)(b) or (c), the total number of Shares
or fractional part thereof purchasable upon the exercise of each
Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted to such number of shares or
fractional parts thereof as the aggregate Warrant Exercise Price of
the number of shares or fractional part thereof purchasable
immediately prior to such adjustment will buy at the adjusted Warrant
Exercise Price.
(e) For the purpose of any computation under subparagraphs
9B(1)(b) and (c) above, the current market price per Share of Common
Stock at any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily
closing prices for the 30 consecutive business days commencing 45
business days before the day in question. The closing price for each
day shall be (i) if the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading
on the New York Stock Exchange, the last sale price (regular way), or
the average of the closing bid and ask prices (regular way), if no
sale occurred, of Common Stock, in either case as reported on the New
York Stock Exchange Composite Tape or, if the Common Stock is not
listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange, on the
principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is
listed or admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted to trading
on any national securities exchange, on the National Market System of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated
Quotations System ("NASDAQ") or, (ii) if not listed or quoted as
described in (i), the mean between the closing high bid and low asked
quotations of Common Stock reported by NASDAQ, or any similar system
for automated dissemination of quotations of securities prices then in
common use, if so quoted, or (iii) if not quoted as described in
clause (ii), the mean between the high bid and low asked quotations
for Common Stock as reported by the National Quotation Bureau
Incorporated if at least two securities dealers have inserted both bid
and asked quotations for Common Stock on at least 5 of the 10
preceding days. If none of the conditions set forth above is met, the
closing price of Common Stock on any day or the average of such
closing prices for any period shall be the fair market value of Common
Stock as determined by a member firm of the New York Stock Exchange
selected by the Company.
(f) (A) Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require an
adjustment as a result of the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to, or
the granting or exercise of any rights under, the Company's [List
employee and shareholder plans, if any, that might otherwise result in
adjustments].
- 8 -
(B) In addition, no adjustment in the Warrant Exercise Price
shall be required unless and until the earlier of the following
shall have occurred: (x) such adjustment would require an
increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Warrant Exercise Price
or (y) a period of 3 years shall have elapsed from the date of
the occurrence of any event requiring any such adjustment
pursuant to subparagraphs 9B(1)(a), (b) or (c) above. All
adjustments shall be made to the nearest one hundredth of a Share
and the nearest cent, and any adjustments which by reason of this
subparagraph (f) are not required to be made shall be carried
forward cumulatively and taken into account in any subsequent
adjustment which (including such carry-forward) is required to be
made under this subparagraph (f).
(g) In any case in which this subparagraph 9B(1) shall require
that an adjustment be made retroactively immediately following a
record date, the Company may elect to defer (but only until five
business days following the mailing of the notice described in
subparagraph 9B(5) below) issuing to the holder of any Warrant
exercised after such record date the Shares of the Company issuable
upon such exercise over and above the Shares issuable upon such
exercise only on the basis of the Warrant Exercise Price prior to
adjustment.
(h) The Company may, at its option, at any time until the
Expiration Date, reduce the then current Warrant Exercise Price to any
amount deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company for
any period not exceeding twenty (20) consecutive days (as evidenced in
a resolution adopted by such Board of Directors), but only upon giving
the notices required by subparagraph 9(B)(5) twenty (20) days prior to
taking such action.
(i) Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, no adjustment
in the Warrant Exercise Price shall be made by reason of the issuance
of Shares, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares,
or securities carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing or
for any other reason whatsoever.
(j) Irrespective of any of the adjustments in the Warrant
Exercise Price or the number of Shares, Warrant Certificates
theretofore issued may continue to express the same prices and number
of Shares as are stated in a similar Warrant Certificate issuable
initially, or at some subsequent time, pursuant to this Agreement and
such number of Shares specified therein shall be deemed to have been
so adjusted.
- 9 -
(2) No fractional Shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the
exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be exercised at one
time by the same holder, the number of full Shares which shall be issuable
upon such exercise shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number
of Shares purchased pursuant to the Warrants so exercised. Instead of any
fractional Share of Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon
exercise of any Warrant, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect
of such fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the last sales
price (or bid price if there were no sales) per Share of Common Stock, in
either case as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape on
the business day which next precedes the day of exercise or, if the Common
Stock is not then listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock
Exchange, an amount equal to the same fraction of the market price per
share of Common Stock (as determined in a manner described by the Board of
Directors of the Company) at the close of business on the business day
which next precedes the day of exercise.
(3) In case any of the following shall occur while any Warrants are
outstanding: (a) any reclassification or change of the outstanding Shares
of Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no
par value, or from no par value to par value); or (b) any consolidation or
merger to which the Company is a party (other than a consolidation or a
merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does
not result in any reclassification of, or change in, the outstanding shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants); or (c) any sale or
conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety; then the Company, or such
successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall make
appropriate provision by amendment of this Agreement or otherwise so that
the holders of the Warrants then outstanding shall have the right at any
time thereafter, upon exercise of such Warrants, to purchase the kind and
amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon
such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance as
would be received by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of such Warrant immediately prior to such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Such
provision shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent
as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 9.
The above provisions of this subparagraph 9B(3) shall similarly apply to
successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, sales or
conveyances.
(4) Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment
decreasing the Warrant Exercise Price so that the Warrant Exercise Price is
below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock, the Company will
take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be
necessary in order that the
- 10 -
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Shares
of Common Stock at the Warrant Exercise Price as so adjusted.
(5) Whenever the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect is adjusted as
herein provided, the Company shall mail to each holder of the Warrants at
such holder's address as it shall appear on the books of the Company a
statement setting forth the adjusted Warrant Exercise Price then and
thereafter effective under the provisions hereof, together with the facts,
in reasonable detail, upon which such adjustment is based.
(6) In case (i) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution) on its Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of its
current or retained earnings, or (ii) the Company shall authorize the
granting to the holders of its Common Stock of rights to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any other rights,
or (iii) there is to be any reclassification of the Common Stock of the
Company (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares
of Common Stock), or any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a
party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Company is
required, or (iv) any distribution is to be made on or in respect of the
Common Stock in connection with the dissolution, liquidation or winding up
of the Company, then the Company shall mail to each holder of Warrants at
such holder's address as it shall appear on the books of the Company, at
least twenty days (or ten days in any case specified in clause (i) or (ii)
above) prior to the applicable record date hereinafter specified, a notice
stating (x) the record date for such dividend, distribution or rights, or,
if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common
Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution or rights are
to be determined, or (y) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected
to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders
of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of
Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up. No failure to mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the
mailing thereof shall affect any such transaction or any adjustment in the
Warrant Exercise Price required by this Section 9.
SECTION 10. Notice to Warrantholders. Nothing contained in this Agreement
or in any of the Warrants shall be construed as conferring upon the holders
thereof the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in
respect of the meetings of shareholders or the election of directors of the
Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as shareholders of the
Company.
- 11 -
SECTION 11. Certain Covenants of the Company.
A. So long as any unexpired Warrants remain outstanding and if required in
order to comply with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), the
Company covenants and agrees that it will file such post-effective amendments to
the registration statement filed pursuant to the Act with respect to the
Warrants (File No. 333- ) (or such other registration statements or
post-effective amendments or supplements) as may be necessary to permit the
Company to deliver to each person exercising a Warrant a prospectus meeting the
requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and otherwise complying therewith,
and will deliver such a prospectus to each such person. The Company further
covenants and agrees that it will obtain and keep effective all permits,
consents and approvals of governmental agencies and authorities, and will use
its best efforts to take all action which may be necessary to qualify the Shares

by or through its attorneys, agents or employees, and the Warrant Agent
shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or

the Company resulting from such neglect or misconduct, provided reasonable
care shall have been exercised in the selection and continued employment
thereof.
- 13 -
D. The Warrant Agent may consult at any time with counsel
satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company), and the Warrant
Agent shall incur no liability or responsibility to the Company or to any
holder of any Warrant in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted
by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion or the
advice of such counsel.
E. The Warrant Agent shall incur no liability or responsibility to
the Company or to any holder of any Warrant for any action taken in
reliance on any notice, resolution, waiver, consent, order, certificate, or
other paper, document or instrument believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties.
F. The Company agrees to pay to the Warrant Agent reasonable
compensation for all services rendered by the Warrant Agent in the
execution of this Agreement, to reimburse the Warrant Agent for all
expenses, taxes and governmental charges and other charges of any kind and

to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it harmless against any and all
liabilities, including judgments, costs and counsel fees, for anything done
or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement except
as a result of the Warrant Agent's gross negligence or bad faith.
G. The Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to institute any
action, suit or legal proceeding or to take any other action likely to
involve expense unless the Company or one or more registered holders of
Warrants shall furnish the Warrant Agent with reasonable security and
indemnity for any costs and expenses which may be incurred, but this
provision shall not affect the power of the Warrant Agent to take such
action as the Warrant Agent may consider proper, whether with or without
any such security or indemnity. All rights of action under this Agreement
or under any of the Warrants may be enforced by the Warrant Agent without
the possession of any of the Warrants or the production thereof at any
trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such action, suit or
proceeding instituted by the Warrant Agent shall be brought in its name as
Warrant Agent, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable
benefit of the registered holders of the Warrants, as their respective
rights or interests may appear.

employee of the Warrant Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Warrants
or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any
transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or
lend money to or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not

other legal entity.

it may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement except

SECTION 15. Change of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may resign and be
discharged from its duties under this Agreement by giving to the Company notice
in writing, and to the holders of the Warrants notice by publication, of such
resignation, specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect, which
notice shall be published at the expense of the Company at least once a week for
two consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of
[City] prior to the date so specified. The Warrant Agent may be removed by the
Company by like notice from the Company to the Warrant Agent and the holders of
Warrants at the expense of the Company. If the Warrant Agent shall resign or be
removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint
a successor to the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such
appointment within a period of 30 days after such removal or after it has been
notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or
incapacitated Warrant Agent or by the registered holder of a Warrant (who shall,
with such notice, submit his Warrant for inspection by the Company), then, at
the expense of the Company, the Warrant Agent or the registered holder of any
Warrant may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor to the Warrant Agent. Any successor Warrant Agent, whether appointed
by the Company or by such a court, shall be a bank or trust company, in good
standing, incorporated under the laws of any State or of the United States of
America, having at the time of its appointment as Warrant Agent a combined
capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000. After appointment the successor
Warrant Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and
responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Warrant Agent without
further act or deed; but the former Warrant Agent shall deliver and transfer to
the successor Warrant Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and
execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for
the purpose. Failure to file or publish any notice provided for in this Section,
however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the
resignation or removal of the Warrant Agent or the appointment of the successor
Warrant Agent, as the case may be.
SECTION 16. Identity of Transfer Agent. Forthwith upon the appointment of
any Transfer Agent for the Shares or of any subsequent Transfer Agent for Shares
issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the
Warrants, the Company will file with the Warrant Agent a statement setting forth
the name and address of such Transfer Agent.

made by the Warrant Agent or by the registered holder of any Warrant to or on

benefit of the Company and the Warrant Agent and the holders of Warrants.
SECTION 22. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to
