Company, par value $0.0001 per share ("COMMON STOCK") at an exercise price of
$0.37883 per share, subject to adjustment hereunder (such exercise price, as
adjusted from time to time, the "EXERCISE PRICE").
As used herein the following terms, unless the context otherwise requires,
have the following respective meanings:
(a) The term "COMPANY" shall include General Devices, Inc. and any
corporation which shall succeed, or assume the obligations of, General Devices,
Inc. hereunder.
(b) The term "COMMON STOCK" includes (a) the Company's Common Stock, par

any of the securities described in clause (a) may be converted or exchanged
pursuant to a plan of recapitalization, reorganization, merger, sale of assets
or otherwise.
(c) The term "OTHER SECURITIES" refers to any stock (other than Common
Stock) and other securities of the Company or any other person (corporate or
otherwise) which the holder of the Warrant at any time shall be entitled to
receive, or shall have received, on the exercise of the Warrant, in lieu of or
in addition to Common Stock, or which at any time shall be issuable or shall

Securities pursuant to Section 3 or 4 or otherwise.
1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
1.1 NUMBER OF SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE. From and after the date
hereof through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder shall be entitled
to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, by delivery of an
original or fax copy of an exercise notice in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A (the "EXERCISE NOTICE"), up to _______ shares of Common Stock of the
Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 (such number of
shares of Common Stock, as adjusted from time to time, the "WARRANT SHARES
NUMBER").
1.2 COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The Company will, at the time of the
exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof acknowledge in
writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which
such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with
the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such
request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company
to afford to such Holder any such rights.
2. PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISE.
2.1 DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC. ON EXERCISE. The Company
agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as
of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered and payment made for such shares in accordance herewith. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any
event within three (3) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense
(including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be
issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as such Holder (upon
payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in
compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for
the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on
such exercise.
2.2 CASH EXERCISE. Payment shall be made in cash or by certified or
official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable
aggregate Exercise Price, for the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) specified in such Exercise Notice (as such exercise number shall be
adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and
the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized,
validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) determined as provided herein.
2.3 CASHLESS EXERCISE. In lieu of payment of the Exercise Price as
provided above, the Holder may elect a cashless net exercise. In the case of
such cashless net exercise, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant for
cancellation and receive in exchange therefor the full number of duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) as is computed using the following formula:
X = Y * (A - B)
----------
A
where:
X = the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to be
issued to the Holder upon cashless exercise of this Warrant
Y = the total number of shares Common Stock (or Other Securities)
covered by this Warrant which the Holder has surrendered at such
time for cashless exercise (including both shares to be issued to
the Holder upon cashless exercise of this Warrant and shares to be
cancelled as payment therefor)
A = the Current Market Value as of the business day on which the
Holder surrenders this Warrant to the Company
B = the Exercise Price then in effect under this Warrant at the time
at which the Holder surrenders this Warrant to the Company
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that
the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued in a cashless exercise transaction
shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for
the Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall be deemed to have commenced, on the
date this Warrant was originally issued.
2.4 LIMITATION ON EXERCISE. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, from and after the date on which the Company shall have registered the
Common Stock (or Other Securities) under the Securities Act, in no event shall
the Holder be entitled to exercise any portion of this Warrant in excess of that
portion of this Warrant upon exercise of which the sum of (i) the number of
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) beneficially owned by the Holder
and its Affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised
portion of the Warrant or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other
security of the Holder subject to a limitation on conversion analogous to the
limitations contained herein) and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) issuable upon the exercise of the portion of this Warrant with
respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result
in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its Affiliates of more than 4.99% of
the then outstanding shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities). As used
herein, the term "AFFILIATE" means any person or entity that, directly or
indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or
is under common control with a person or entity, as such terms are used in and
construed under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. For purposes of the proviso
to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in
clause (1) of such proviso. The Holder may waive the limitations set forth
herein by sixty-one (61) days written notice to the Company.
3. EFFECT OF MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC.; ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.
3.1 ADJUSTMENT FOR MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. If there shall
occur any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or
merger involving the Company
in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or
other property, then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization,
reclassification, consolidation or merger, this Warrant shall thereafter be
exercisable in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was exercisable prior to
such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which
a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such reorganization,
recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger would have been
entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate
adjustment (as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company
(the "Board")) shall be made in the application of the provisions of Section 3,
4 and 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holders of
this Warrant, to the end that the provisions set forth in Section 3, 4 and 5
(including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the
Exercise Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be,
in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the
exercise of this Warrant.
3.2 DISSOLUTION. In the event of any dissolution of the Company
following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets,
the Company, concurrently with any distributions made to holders of its Common
Stock, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder the
stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable)
receivable by the Holder of the Warrant pursuant to Section 3.1.
3.3 CONTINUATION OF TERMS. Upon any reorganization, consolidation,
merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in
this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the
terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of
dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be
binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the
case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant. In the event this Warrant does not
continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transactions
described in this Section 3, then the Company's securities and property
(including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holders of the Warrant will
be delivered to Holder.
4. EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS REGARDING COMMON STOCK.
4.1 ADJUSTMENT FOR STOCK SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. If the Company
shall at any time or from time to time effect a subdivision of the outstanding
Common Stock (or Other Securities), the Exercise Price then in effect
immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the
Company shall at any time or from time to time combine the outstanding shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities), the Exercise Price then in effect
immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any
adjustment under this clause shall become effective at the close of business on
the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
4.2 ADJUSTMENT FOR CERTAIN DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event
the Company at any time or from time to time shall make or issue, or fix a
record date for the
determination of holders of Common Stock (or Other Securities) entitled to
receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities), then and in each such event the Exercise Price then
in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event
such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such
record date, by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction:
(i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares
of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of
business on such record date, and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of
business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) issuable in payment of such dividend or
distribution;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend
is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed
therefor, the Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of
business on such record date and thereafter the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
pursuant to this clause as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or
distributions.
4.3 ADJUSTMENTS FOR OTHER DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event
the Company at any time or from time to time shall make or issue, or fix a
record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in
securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities), then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the
Holder shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant in addition to the number of
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) receivable thereupon, the amount of
securities of the Company that it would have received had this Warrant been
exercised into Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the date of such event and
had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and
including the exercise date, retained such securities receivable by them as
aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for
during such period with respect to the rights of the Holder.
4.4 ADJUSTMENT FOR RECLASSIFICATION, EXCHANGE, OR Substitution. If
the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any
class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification,
or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock
dividend provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale
of assets provided for below), then and in each such event the Holder shall have
the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant into the kind and amount of shares
of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) into which this Warrant might have been exercised
immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all
subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
4.5 CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 4, the
Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in
accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting
forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which
such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written
request at any time of the Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such
holder a similar certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and
readjustments, (ii) the Exercise Price then in effect, and (iii) the Warrant
Shares Number and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be
received upon the exercise of this Warrant.
4.6 WARRANT SHARES NUMBER. If any event shall occur that results in
any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 4, then the
Warrant Shares Number, as in effect immediately prior to such event, shall be
adjusted such that the product of (a) the Exercise Price (as adjusted), times
(b) the Warrant Shares Number (as adjusted), in each case in effect immediately
following such event shall equal the product of (i) the Exercise Price, times
(b) the Warrant Shares Number, in each case in effect immediately prior to such
event.
5. DILUTIVE ISSUANCES.
5.1 DEEMED ISSUE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.
-------------------------------------------------
(i) If the Company at any time or from time to time after the
date of the issuance of this Warrant shall issue any Options or Convertible
Securities or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of
any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible
Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the
satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or
exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a
subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such
Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to
be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue
or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of
business on such record date.
(ii) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the
issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant
to the terms of Section 5.2 below, are revised (either automatically
pursuant to the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment
to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the
number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon the
exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security
or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Company
upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then, effective upon such
increase or decrease becoming effective, the Exercise Price computed upon
the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the
occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to
such Exercise Price as would have obtained had such revised terms been in
effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible
Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to this
clause (ii) shall have the
effect of increasing the Exercise Price to an amount which exceeds the
lower of (i) the Exercise Price on the original adjustment date, or (ii)
the Exercise Price that would have resulted from any issuances of
Additional Shares of Common Stock between the original adjustment date and
such readjustment date.
(iii) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the
issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price
pursuant to the terms of Section 5.2 below (either because the
consideration per share of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject
thereto was equal to or greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, or
because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the issuance
of this Warrant), are revised after the issuance of this Warrant (either
automatically pursuant to the provisions contained therein or as a result
of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase or
decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or
Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration
payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then
such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended, and the Additional
Shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued
effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.
(iv) Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised
Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security which resulted
(either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an
adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 5.2
below, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to such Exercise Price as
would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security never been
issued.
5.2 ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE UPON ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES
OF COMMON STOCK. In the event the Company shall at any time after the issuance
of this Warrant issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional
Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 5.1), without
consideration or for a consideration per share less than the applicable Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Exercise Price shall
be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest
one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:
EP2 = EP1 * (A + B) / (A + C)
For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions
shall apply:
"EP2" shall mean the Exercise Price in effect immediately
after such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock;
"EP1" shall mean the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Common
Stock;
"A" shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) outstanding and deemed outstanding
immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares
of Common Stock (treating for
this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon exercise of
Options outstanding immediately prior to such issue or
upon conversion of Convertible Securities outstanding
immediately prior to such issue);
"B" shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) that would have been issued if such
Additional Shares of Common Stock had been issued at a
price per share equal to EP1 (determined by dividing the
aggregate consideration received by the Company in
respect of such issue by EP1); and
"C" shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of
Common Stock issued in such transaction.
5.3 DETERMINATION OF CONSIDERATION. For purposes of this Section 5,
the consideration received by the Company for the issue of any Additional Shares
of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:
(i) CASH AND PROPERTY: Such consideration shall:
(A) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the
aggregate amount of cash received by the Company,
excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued
interest;
(B) insofar as it consists of property other than
cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof
at the time of such issue, as determined in good
faith by the Board; and
(C) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are
issued together with other shares or securities or
other assets of the Company for consideration
which covers both, be the proportion of such
consideration so received, computed as provided in
clauses (A) and (B) above, as determined in good
faith by the Board.
(ii) OPTIONS AND CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. The consideration per
share received by the Company for Additional Shares of Common Stock
deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 5.1, relating to
Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing:
(A) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by
the Company as consideration for the issue of such Options or
Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of
additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating
thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a
subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company
upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible
Securities, the exercise of such
Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities, by
(B) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set
forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to
any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of
such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
5.4 MULTIPLE CLOSING DATES. In the event the Company shall issue on
more than one date Additional Shares of Common Stock that are a part of one
transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an
adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 5.2 above
then, upon the final such issuance, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to
give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first
such issuance (and without additional giving effect to any adjustments as a
result of any subsequent issuances within such period).
5.5 CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 5, the
Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in
accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting
forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which
such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written
request at any time of the Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such
holder a similar certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and
readjustments, (ii) the Exercise Price then in effect, and (iii) the Warrant
Shares Number and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be
received upon the exercise of this Warrant.
5.6 WARRANT SHARES NUMBER. If any event shall occur that results in
any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 5, then the
Warrant Shares Number, as in effect immediately prior to such event, shall be
adjusted such that the product of (a) the Exercise Price (as adjusted), times
(b) the Warrant Shares Number (as adjusted), in each case in effect immediately
following such event shall equal the product of (i) the Exercise Price, times
(b) the Warrant Shares Number, in each case in effect immediately prior to such
event.
6. RESERVATION OF STOCK, ETC. ISSUABLE ON EXERCISE OF WARRANT. The Company
will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery
on the exercise of the Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant. The Company will not,
by amendment of its charter or through 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant and (b) take all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) upon the exercise of this Warrant.
7. ASSIGNMENT; EXCHANGE OF WARRANT. Subject to compliance with applicable
securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be
transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "TRANSFEROR") in whole or in
part. On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor's
endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the "TRANSFEROR
ENDORSEMENT FORM") and together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company demonstrating compliance with applicable securities laws, which shall
include, without limitation, a legal opinion from the Transferor's counsel that
such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of applicable
securities laws, the Company at its expense but with payment by the Transferor
of any applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on the order of
the Transferor thereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the
Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement
Form (each a "TRANSFEREE"), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces
thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces
of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.
8. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on
delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form
and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender
and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
9. WARRANT AGENT. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the
Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other
Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging
this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to
Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange
or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.
10. TRANSFER ON THE COMPANY'S BOOKS. Until this Warrant is transferred on
the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as
the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary.
11. NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications from the Company to
the Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first class registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have been furnished to
the Company in writing by such Holder or, until any such Holder furnishes to the
Company an address, then to, and at the address of, the last Holder of this
Warrant who has so furnished an address to the Company.
