Warrant to Purchase Common Stock
of
AMTEC, INC.
THIS CERTIFIES that COMMUNICATIONS INVESTORS GROUP, a Florida General
Partnership ("Holder"), or any subsequent holder hereof, has the right to
purchase from AMTEC, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), not more than
600,000 (the "Exercise Amount") validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
shares of the Company's Common Stock, $0.001 par value ("Common Stock"), at the
exercise price defined below (the "Exercise Price"), at any time on or before
5:00 p.m., March 31, 2004 (the "Expiration Date", which is the fifth anniversary
of the Closing Date). This Warrant is issued pursuant to that certain
Subscription Agreement between the Company and the original Holder dated as of
March 15, 1999 (the "Subscription Agreement"). The holder of this Warrant agrees
with the Company that this Warrant is issued and all rights hereunder shall be
held, subject to all of the conditions, limitations and provisions set forth
herein.
1. Definitions. For purposes of this Warrant:
"Closing Date" means the date of the closing of the purchase of the Warrant
pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.
"Exercise Price" shall be equal to the Conversion Price of the Shares as set
forth in the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, subject to adjustment as
described in Section 5.
2. Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant may be exercised at any time or from time
to time on or before the Expiration Date to the extent of the then applicable
Exercise Amount upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Exercise Form attached
hereto as Exhibit B, duly executed, together with the full Exercise Price for
each share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is exercised, at the office
of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate
in writing, by overnight mail, with an advance copy of the Exercise Form by
facsimile (such surrender and payment hereinafter called the "Exercise"). The
"Date of Exercise" of the Warrant shall be defined as the date that a copy of
the Exercise Form is sent by facsimile to the Company, provided that the
original Warrant and Exercise Form are received by the Company within five (5)
business days thereafter. This Warrant shall be canceled upon, but only to the
extent of, its Exercise. As soon as practical thereafter, but no later than
three (3) business days
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AmTec, Inc. 1 Series G Convertible Preferred Stock
thereafter, the holder hereof shall be entitled to receive a certificate or
certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased upon such
Exercise and (if applicable) a new Warrant or Warrants (containing terms
identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this Warrant.
Each person in whose name any certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued
shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have become the holder of record of such
shares on the date the Company or Transfer Agent dispatches such Common Stock or
no later than the third business day after receipt of the original Warrant
irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate. Nothing in this
Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the holder hereof any rights as a
shareholder of the Company prior to Exercise.
3. Payment of Exercise Price. Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by cash,
certified check or cashier's check or wire transfer to the Company.
4. Transfer and Registration. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this
Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, wholly or
in part, upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed, with signature
guaranteed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and, as soon as
practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made shall be
entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of this Warrant
transferred, and the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive a new
Warrant or Warrants as to the portion hereof retained.
5. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.
(a) In the event the Company shall at any time undergo a stock split, stock
dividend or other combination or subdivision that does not involve payment of
consideration for such shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to
such change shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to
such subdivision shall be proportionately increased. In the event the Company
shall at any time combine its outstanding Common Stock, the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased
and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the
Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately
decreased. Any adjustment shall become effective at the close of business on the
date that such subdivision or combination shall become effective.
(b) If the Company shall at any time effect a recapitalization or
reclassification of such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be
changed into or become exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares,
then upon the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which
the holder hereof shall be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant
shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the
increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such
recapitalization or reclassification, and the Exercise Price shall be, in the
case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionately decreased and, in
the case of a decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased.
(c) If the Company shall at any time consolidate or merge with any other
corporation or transfer all or substantially all of its assets, then the Company
shall deliver written notice to the Holder of such merger, consolidation or sale
of assets at least thirty (30) days prior to the closing
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AmTec, Inc. 2 Series G Convertible Preferred Stock
of such merger, consolidation or sale of assets
and this Warrant shall terminate and expire immediately prior to the closing of
such merger, consolidation or sale of assets.
(d) No adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made unless such adjustment
would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more; provided, however,
that all adjustments not so made shall be deferred and made when the aggregate
thereof would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more. No
adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the
effect of increasing the total consideration payable upon Exercise of this
Warrant in respect of all the Common Stock as to which this Warrant may be
exercised.
(e) In the event that any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to
this Section 5, the holder of this Warrant shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant,
become entitled to receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than
Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of
Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other
securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other
securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a
manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of
this Section 5.
6. Fractional Interests. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant, but on Exercise of
this Warrant, the holder hereof may purchase only a whole number of shares of
Common Stock.
7. Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve for issuance
such number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (or other
securities substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be sufficient
for Exercise of this Warrant. The Company covenants and agrees that upon
Exercise of this Warrant, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise
shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and not subject to
preemptive rights of any shareholders.
8. Restrictions on Transfer. This Warrant and the Common Stock issuable on
Exercise hereof have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not
be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in the
absence of registration or the availability of an exemption from registration
under said Securities Act. In the event a holder believes an exemption from the
registration requirements of said Act is available, the holder must deliver a
legal opinion reasonably satisfactory in form and substance, to the Company and
its counsel, stating that such exemption is available. All shares of Common
Stock issued upon Exercise of this Warrant shall bear an appropriate legend to
such effect. Unless the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel) that
such a legend would be unnecessary, each share certificate for Common Stock
issued upon Exercise hereof shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a
legend in substantially the following form:
