WARRANT NO. TO PURCHASE
SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
($0.001 PAR VALUE)
CLASS "AC" WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES
OF COMMON STOCK OF
PROBEX CORP.
(A DELAWARE CORPORATION)
PURCHASE PRICE PER SHARE: $1.9625
EXPIRATION DATE: 5:00 P.M., DALLAS, TEXAS TIME, ON NOVEMBER 2, 2005
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received,
is the registered owner and is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions of
this Warrant, until the Expiration Date, to purchase the number of shares set
forth above of the Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), of
Probex Corp. (the "Corporation") from the Corporation at the purchase price set
forth above. The number of shares of Common Stock which may be received upon the
exercise of the Warrants and the price to be paid for each share of Common Stock
are subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth.
1. EXERCISE OF WARRANTS. Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be
exercised in whole or in part until the Expiration Date, by delivery of this
Warrant to the Corporation with the exercise form duly executed and payment of
the purchase price (in cash or by certified or bank cashier's check made payable
to the order of the Corporation) for each share purchased.
2. CORPORATION'S COVENANTS AS TO COMMON STOCK. Shares deliverable on the
exercise of this Warrant shall, at delivery, be fully paid and non-assessable,
free from taxes, liens, and charges with respect to their purchase. The
Corporation shall at all times reserve and hold available sufficient shares of
Common Stock to satisfy all conversion and purchase rights of outstanding
convertible securities, options and warrants.
3. REDUCTION IN WARRANT. If the Secured Promissory Note, dated as of November 2,
2000, by and between the Corporation and ___________________, is repaid on or
prior to December 2,
2
Class "AC" Warrant No__
Page 2
2000, then the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder
shall be reduced to three-fifths (3/5ths) of the shares of Common Stock
specified on the face of this Warrant.
4. METHOD OF EXERCISE; FRACTIONAL SHARES. The purchase rights represented by
this Warrant are exercisable at the option of the registered owner in whole at
any time, or in part, from time to time, within the period above specified,
provided, however, that purchase rights are not exercisable with respect to a
fraction of a share of Common Stock. In lieu of issuing a fraction of a share
remaining after exercise of this Warrant as to all full shares covered hereby,
the Corporation shall either (1) pay therefor cash equal to the same fraction of
the then current Warrant purchase price per share or, at its option, (2) issue
scrip for the fraction, in registered or bearer form approved by the board of
directors of the Corporation, which shall entitle the holder to receive a
certificate for a full share of Common Stock on surrender of scrip aggregating a
full share. Scrip may become void after a reasonable period (but not less than
six months after the expiration date of this Warrant) determined by the board of
directors and specified in the scrip. In case of the exercise of this Warrant
for less than all the shares purchasable, the Corporation shall cancel this
Warrant and execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date for the
balance of the shares purchasable.
5. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. If on or prior to January 15, 2003, the
Corporation shall (i) issue, (ii) enter into any binding agreement to issue, or
(iii) commence any public or private offering for the issuance of, shares of
Common Stock, warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock or debt or equity
securities which are convertible into shares of Common Stock, in an aggregate
amount of at least 100,000 shares of Common Stock (excluding any options to
purchase Common Stock issued pursuant to any employee stock option plan of the
Corporation), and the issuance, exercise or conversion price (the "Issuance
Price") of such Common Stock is less than $1.9625 per share, then the exercise
price per share pursuant to this Warrant shall be adjusted (and the Corporation
shall, after occurrence of any event requiring such adjustment, notify the
holder of this Warrant of the adjustment) so that the exercise price shall be
equal to the Issuance Price. For purposes of this section, a public or private
offering shall be deemed to have commenced if the there is substantial agreement
as to the material terms of such offering.
6. REDEMPTION. The Corporation has no redemption rights pursuant to this
Warrant.
7. LIMITED RIGHTS OF OWNER. This Warrant does not entitle the owner to any
voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Corporation, or to any
other rights whatsoever except the rights herein expressed. No dividends are
payable or will accrue on this Warrant or the shares purchasable hereunder
until, and except to the extent that, this Warrant is exercised.
8. EXCHANGE FOR OTHER DENOMINATIONS. This Warrant is exchangeable, on its
surrender by the registered owner to the Corporation, for new Warrants of like
tenor and date representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of
shares purchasable hereunder in denominations designated by the registered owner
at the time of surrender.
9. TRANSFER. Except as otherwise above provided, this Warrant is transferable
only on the books of the Corporation by the registered owner in person or by
attorney, on surrender of this Warrant, properly endorsed. However, because this
Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and applicable state securities laws, this Warrant may not be sold or
transferred in the absence of an effective registration of it under such Act and
all other applicable securities laws or an opinion of counsel acceptable to the
Corporation or its representatives that such sale or transfer would not violate
applicable securities laws or regulations. Any Common Stock purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant shall also be subject to the same restrictions on
transfer and will contain the same transfer legend found on the face of this
Warrant.

10. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
(1) Each time that the Corporation proposes for any reason to register
any of its Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with the proposed
offer and sale of its Common Stock for money either for its own account or on
behalf of any other security holder ("Proposed Registration"), other than
pursuant to a registration statement on Form X-0, X-0 or any successor thereto,
the Corporation shall promptly give written notice of such Proposed Registration
to the holder hereof and shall offer such holder hereof the right to request
inclusion of the shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in
the Proposed Registration.
(2) The holder hereof shall have thirty (30) days from the receipt of
such notice to deliver to the Corporation a written request specifying the
number of shares such holder hereof intends to sell and the holder's intended
method of disposition.
(3) In the event that the Proposed Registration by the Corporation is,
in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering, the Corporation shall so
advise the holder hereof as part of the written notice given pursuant to Section
10(1), and any request under Section 10(2) must specify that the shares of
Common Stock be included in the underwriting on the same terms and conditions as
the shares of Common Stock, if any, otherwise being sold through underwriters
under such registration.
(4) Upon receipt of a written request pursuant to Section 10(2), the
Corporation shall promptly use its best efforts to cause all such shares of
Common Stock held by the holder hereof to be registered under the Securities Act
(and included in any related qualifications under blue sky laws or other
compliance), to the extent required to permit sale or disposition as set forth
in the Proposed Registration.
(5) In the event that the offering is to be an underwritten offering,
the holder hereof proposing to distribute its shares of Common Stock through
such underwritten offering agrees to enter into an underwriting agreement with
the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the
Corporation.
(6) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in its good faith judgment, the
managing underwriter determines and advises in writing that the inclusion of all
shares of Common Stock issued or issuable with respect to this Warrant proposed
to be included in the underwritten public offering, together with any other
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock proposed to be included therein by
holders other than the holder hereof, would interfere with the successful
marketing of such securities, then the number of such shares to be included in
such underwritten public offering shall be reduced, on a pro-rata basis (except
only those shares held by holders that have the benefit of any priority rights
previously granted such holders), based upon the number of shares held by each
holder, including the holder hereof; provided that, in connection with any such
public offering, if the managing underwriter reasonably and in good faith
recommends, which recommendation and supporting reasoning shall be delivered in
writing to the holders, that no amount of shares, including shares held by the
holder hereof, should be included in the underwritten public offering, then the
Corporation shall not be required to include any such shares in such public
offering.
11. RECOGNITION OF REGISTERED OWNER. Prior to due presentment for registration
of transfer of this Warrant, the Corporation may treat the registered owner as
the person exclusively entitled to receive notices and otherwise to exercise
rights hereunder.
12. EFFECT OF STOCK SPLIT, ETC. If the Corporation, by stock dividend, split,
reverse split, reclassification of shares, or otherwise, changes as a whole the
outstanding Common Stock into a different number or class of shares, then:
4
Class "AC" Warrant No__
Page 4
(1) the number and class of shares so changed shall, for the purposes
of this Warrant, replace the shares outstanding immediately prior to the change;
and
(2) the Warrant purchase price in effect, and the number of shares
purchasable under this Warrant, immediately prior to the date upon which the
change becomes effective, shall be proportionately adjusted (the price to the
nearest cent). Irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Warrant purchase
price or the number of shares purchasable under this or any other Warrant of
like tenor, the Warrants theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to
express the Warrant purchase price per share and the number of shares
purchasable as were expressed in the Warrants when initially issued.
13. EFFECT OF MERGER, ETC. If the Corporation consolidates with or merges into
another corporation, the registered owner shall thereafter be entitled on
exercise to purchase, with respect to each share of Common Stock purchasable
hereunder immediately before the consolidation or merger becomes effective, the
securities or other consideration to which a holder of one share of Common Stock
is entitled in the consolidation or merger to assure that all the provisions of
this Warrant shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonable may be, to
any securities or other consideration so deliverable on exercise of this
Warrant. The Corporation shall not consolidate or merge unless, prior to
consummation, the successor corporation (if other than the Corporation) assumes
the obligations of this Section 13 by written instrument executed and mailed to
the registered owner at the address of the owner on the books of the
Corporation. A sale or lease of all or substantially all the assets of the
Corporation for consideration (apart from the assumption of obligations)
consisting primarily of securities is a consolidation or merger for the
foregoing purposes.
14. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. On the happening of an event requiring an adjustment
of the Warrant purchase price or shares purchasable hereunder, the Corporation
shall forthwith give written notice to the registered owner stating the adjusted
Warrant purchase price and the adjusted number and kind of securities or other
property purchasable hereunder resulting from the event and setting forth in
reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which the
calculation is based. The board of directors of the Corporation, acting in good
faith, shall determine the calculation.
15. NOTICE AND EFFECT OF DISSOLUTION, ETC. In case a voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Corporation (other than in
connection with a consolidation or merger covered by Section 13 above) is at any
time proposed, the Corporation shall give at least 10 days written notice to the
registered owner prior to the record date as of which holders of Common Stock
will be entitled to receive distributions as a result of the proposed
transaction. Such notice shall contain: (1) the date on which the transaction is
to take place; (2) the record date as of which holders of Common Stock will be
entitled to receive distributions as a result of the transaction; (3) a brief
description of the transaction; (4) a brief description of the distributions to
be made to holders of Common Stock as a result of the transaction; and (5) an
estimate of the fair value of the distributions. On the date of the transaction,
if it actually occurs, this Warrant and all rights hereunder shall terminate.
15. METHOD OF GIVING NOTICE; EXTENT REQUIRED. Notices shall be given by first
class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the registered owner at the address of
the owner appearing in the records of the Corporation. No notice to warrant
holders is required except as specified in Sections 5, 10, 14 and 15.
15. ACCESS TO INFORMATION. The Corporation will provide an opportunity to any
registered owner of this Warrant to ask questions of management of the
Corporation and to obtain information to the extent the Corporation has made
such information publicly available prior to any exercise of the owner's rights
to purchase Common Stock under this Warrant. Requests for information and any
other questions concerning the business and affairs of the Corporation should be
directed to any officer of the Corporation at its main offices.
