STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
RIGHT TO PURCHASE 571,429 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
THIS CERTIFIES THAT Xxxxxxx Corporate Finance, Inc. and all registered and
permitted assigns (collectively, "Holder") is entitled to purchase, on or before
June 3, 2001, five hundred seventy one thousand four hundred twenty nine
(571,429) shares of the common stock ("Common Stock") of Xxxxxx Communications,
Inc. (the "Corporation" or "Company") upon exercise of this Warrant along with
presentation of the full purchase price as provided herein. The purchase price
of the common stock upon exercise of this Warrant ("Warrant Shares") is equal to
eight and three-quarter cents ($0.0875) per share (the "Exercise Price"). The
purchase price of this Warrant is $100.00.
1. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part on any business day on or
before the expiration date listed above by presentation and surrender hereof to
the Company at its principal office of an exercise request and the Exercise
Price in lawful money of the United States of America in the form of a wire
transfer or check, subject to collection, for the number of Warrant Shares
specified in the exercise request. If this Warrant should be exercised in part
only, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant, execute and deliver a
new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder thereof to purchase the balance
of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this
Warrant and an exercise request and representations, together with proper
payment of the Exercise Price, at such office, the Holder shall be deemed to be
the holder of record of the Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that the stock
transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates
representing such Warrant Shares shall not then be actually delivered to the
Holder. The Company shall pay any and all transfer agent fees, documentary stamp
or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery
of the Warrant Shares.
(b) At any time during the Exercise Period, the Holder may, at its option,
exchange this Warrant, in whole or in part (a "Warrant Exchange"), into the
number of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with this Section (1)(b), by
surrendering this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, accompanied by
a written notice stating such Holder's intent to effect such exchange, the
number of Warrant Shares to be exchanged and the date on which the Holder
requests that such Warrant Exchange occur (the "Notice of Exchange"). The
Warrant Exchange shall take place on the date the Notice of Exchange is received
by the Company or such later date as may be specified in the Notice of Exchange
(the "Exchange Date"). Certificates for the shares issuable upon such Warrant
Exchange and, if applicable, a new Warrant of like tenor evidencing the balance
of the shares remaining subject to this Warrant, shall be issued as of the
Exchange Date and delivered to the Holder within seven (7) days following the
Exchange Date. In connection with any Warrant Exchange, this Warrant shall
represent the right to subscribe for and acquire the number of Warrant Shares
(rounded to the next highest integer) equal to (i) the number of Warrant Shares
specified by the Holder in its Notice of Exchange (the "Total Number") less (ii)
the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the
product of the Total Number and the existing Exercise Price by (B) the current
market value of a share of Common Stock. Current market value shall be the
average closing price for the 5-day period prior to the Exchange Date.
2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares Deliverable Upon Exercise
of Warrant.
1
2
The Exercise Price and the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of
this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of
the events enumerated in this paragraph.
(a) In case the Corporation shall at any time after the date of this Warrant:
(i) Pay a dividend of its shares of its Common Stock or make a
distribution in shares, or rights or warrants to purchase shares of its Common
Stock with respect to its outstanding Common Stock;
(ii) Subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock;
(iii) Combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock; or
(iv) Issue any other shares of capital stock by reclassification of its
shares of Common Stock
the Exercise Price in effect and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at the
time of the record date of such dividend, subdivision, combination, or
reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that Holder shall be
entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares which, if this
Warrant had been exercised prior to such event, Holder would have owned upon
such exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend,
subdivision, combination, or reclassification. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.
(b) In case of any reorganization of the Corporation, or in case of any
reclassification or change of outstanding Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant (other than a change in par value. or from par value to no par
value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or
split-up or combination of the Common Stock), or in case of any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another entity (other than a consolidation or
merger with a subsidiary or a continuing corporation), or in case of any sale or
conveyance to another entity of all or substantially all of the property of the
Corporation, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance, the Corporation or such
successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, shall forthwith provide to
Holder a supplemental warrant (the "Supplement Warrant") which will make lawful
and adequate provision whereby Holder shall have the right thereafter to
receive, upon exercise of such Supplemental Warrant, the kind and amount of
shares and other securities and property which would have been received upon
such reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale, or
conveyance by a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number
of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale, or
conveyance. Such Supplemental Warrant shall include provisions for adjustments
which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this paragraph. The above provisions of this paragraph shall
similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, or conveyances.
3. Registration Rights.
If the shares underlying this Warrant can be registered within the same
registration statement selected by the Company for the securities issued in

the Company, other than a Registration Statement filed with respect to any
employee benefit plan or an offering solely related to an acquisition for which

include in any such registration statement the number of Warrant Shares holder

underwriter for any said registration advises the Company that the inclusion of
the Warrant
2

a period of up to 120 days following such offering, not to sell or otherwise
dispose of the Warrant Shares. The Company shall supply prospectuses and other

shall continue in effect regardless of the exercise and surrender of this
Warrant.
