2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT
2.1. MANNER OF EXERCISE. From and after the Closing Date and
until 5:00 P.M., New York time, on the Expiration Date, Holder may exercise this
Warrant, on any Business Day, for all or any part of the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable hereunder.
In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, Holder
shall deliver to the Company at its principal office at 0000 Xxxxxxxxx 000
Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000 (i) a written notice of Holder's
election to exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of
shares of Common Stock to be purchased, (ii) payment of the Warrant Price in
cash or by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank and
(iii) this Warrant. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of the
subscription form appearing at the end of this Warrant as Exhibit A, duly
executed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon receipt of the items referred
to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the Company shall, as promptly as
practicable, execute or cause to be executed and deliver or cause to be
delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate
number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, together with
cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided. The stock
certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in
such denomination or denominations as Holder shall request in the notice and
shall be registered in the name of Holder or, subject to Section 7 hereof, such
other name as shall be designated in the notice. This Warrant shall be deemed to
have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have
been issued, and Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein
shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all
purposes, as of the date the notice, together with the cash or check or checks
and this Warrant, is received by the Company as described above and all taxes
required to be paid by Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2.2 prior to the
issuance of such shares have been paid. If this Warrant shall have been
4
exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate
or certificates representing Warrant Stock, deliver to Holder a new Warrant
evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares of Common
Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects
be identical with this Warrant, or, at the request of Holder, appropriate
notation may be made on this Warrant and the same returned to Holder.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be
required to register shares in the name of any Person who acquired this Warrant
(or part hereof) or any Warrant Stock otherwise than in accordance with this
Warrant.
At any time prior to the Expiration Date, Holder may, at its
option, exchange this Warrant, in whole or in part (a "Cashless Exchange"), into
the number of shares of Warrant Stock determined in accordance with this Section
2.1, by surrendering this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or at
the office of its stock transfer agent, accompanied by a notice stating such
Holder's intent to effect such exchange, the number of shares of Warrant Stock
to be exchanged and the date on which a Holder requests that such Cashless
Exchange occur (the "Notice of Exchange"). The Cashless Exchange shall take
place on the date specified in the Notice of Exchange or, if later, the date the
Notice of Exchange is received by the Company or its stock transfer agent (the
"Exchange Date"). Upon any such exchange, the amount paid for this Warrant shall
be deemed to constitute payment of the par value of the Warrant Shares so issued
in exchange. Certificates for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
Cashless Exchange and, if applicable, a new warrant of like tenor evidencing the
balance of the shares of Common Stock remaining subject to this Warrant, shall
be issued as of the Exchange Date and delivered to the Holder as promptly as
practicable following the Exchange Date. In connection with any Cashless
Exchange, this Warrant shall represent the right to subscribe for and acquire
the number of shares of Warrant Stock (rounded to the next highest integer)
equal to (i) the number of shares of Warrant Stock specified by Holder in its
Notice of Exchange (the "Total Number") less (ii) the number of shares of
Warrant Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the product of the
Total Number and the existing Exercise Price by (B) the Current Market Price on
the Exchange Date.
2.2. PAYMENT OF TAXES AND CHARGES. All shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be
validly issued, fully
5
paid and nonassessable, freely tradeable and without any preemptive rights. The
Company shall pay all documentary stamp taxes and other governmental charges
attributable to the issuance of the Warrant Stock, unless such tax or charge is
imposed by law upon Holder, in which case such taxes or charges shall be paid by
Holder. The Company shall not be required, however, to pay any tax or other
charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue of any
certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in
any name other than that of Holder, and in such case the Company shall not be
required to issue or deliver any stock certificate until such tax or other
charge has been paid or it has been established to the satisfaction of the
Company that no such tax or other charge is due. The Holder shall be responsible
for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or
transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Stock upon exercise hereof.
2.3. FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to
issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any
fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon
such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Current Market Price per
share of Common Stock on the Closing Date.
3. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION
3.1. TRANSFER. Subject in all respects to compliance with
Section 7, transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in
part, shall be registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such
purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company
referred to in Section 2.1 or the office or agency designated by the Company
pursuant to Section 10.1, together with a written assignment of this Warrant
substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto duly executed by Holder or its
agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon
the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment,
the Company shall, subject to Section 7, execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination
specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a
new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this
Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned in
compliance
6
with Section 7, may be exercised by a new Holder for the purchase of shares of
Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.
3.2. DIVISION AND COMBINATION. Subject to Section 7, this
Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof
at the aforesaid office or agency of the Company, together with a written notice
specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
signed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section
3.1 and with Section 7, as to any transfer which may be involved in such
division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice.
3.3. MAINTENANCE OF BOOKS. The Company agrees to maintain, at
its aforesaid office or agency, books for the registration and the registration
of transfer of the Warrants.
4. ADJUSTMENTS
The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable, or the price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of
this Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in
this Section 4. The Company shall give Holder notice of any event described
below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 at the time of
such event.
4.1. STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS. If at any
time the Company shall:
(a) declare a dividend payable in, or make a distribution
of, Additional Shares of Common Stock,
(b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
larger number of shares of Common Stock, or
(c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares of Common Stock,
then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted
to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same
7
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to
receive after the happening of such event, and (ii) the Warrant Price shall be
adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price by a
fraction the denomination of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after giving effect to such action, and numerator of
which shall be the number of shares outstanding immediately prior to such
action. Any adjustment made pursuant to the Section 4.1 shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately
after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination.
4.2. PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THIS SECTION.
The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the
Warrant Price provided for in this Section 4:
(a) WHEN ADJUSTMENTS TO BE MADE. The adjustments required by
this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified
event requiring an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any
adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the
close of business on the date of its occurrence.
(b) FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. In computing adjustments under this
Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into
account to the nearest 1/10th of a share.
(c) WHEN ADJUSTMENT NOT REQUIRED. If the Company shall take a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling
them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase
rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to
stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such
dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then
thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of
such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof
shall be rescinded and annulled.
4.3. RECLASSIFICATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR DISPOSITION OF
ASSETS. In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation
or merger of the Company
8
with or into another person, the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the
Common Stock is converted into other securities, case or property, then the
Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant only into the
shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon or deemed to
be held by holders of Common Stock following such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sales, transfer or share exchange, and the Holder shall
be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of securities or property
equal to the amount of Warrant Stock such Holder would have been entitled to had
such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sales, transfer or share exchange.
4.4. OTHER ACTION AFFECTING COMMON STOCK. In case at any time
or from time to time the Company shall take any action in respect of its Common
Stock, other than any action described in this Section 4, which would have a
materially adverse effect upon the rights of the Holder, the number of shares of
Common Stock and/or the purchase price thereof shall be adjusted in such manner
as may be equitable in the circumstances, as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Company.
5. NOTICES TO HOLDER
5.1. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, or whenever the price at
which a share of such Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of the
Warrants, shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall give notice
to the Holder of the adjusted Warrant Price and adjusted number of shares of
Warrant Stock and, if requested, information describing the transactions giving
rise to such adjustments. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given
if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the books of
the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 10.1.
5.2. NOTICE OF CORPORATE ACTION. If at any time
(a) the Company shall pay a dividend or make any distribution
of its Common Stock, or
(b) there shall be any capital, any reclassification or
recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any
consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or

business of the Company to, another corporation, or
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at
least 30 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be
selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to
vote in respect of any such reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale,
transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the
case of any such reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer,

right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any

of the Company (excluding cash dividends or distributions out of earned
surplus), then the Company shall give to Holder at least 30 days' prior written

determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants,
evidences of indebtedness or assets of the Company.

6. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK
From and after the Closing Date, the Company shall at all
times reserve and keep available for issue upon the exercise of Warrants such
number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All
shares of Common Stock which shall be so issuable, when issued upon exercise of
any Warrant and payment therefor in accordance with the terms of such Warrant,
shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and not
subject to preemptive rights.
7. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY
The Warrants and the Warrant Stock shall not be transferred,
hypothecated or assigned before satisfaction of the conditions specified in this

any Warrant Stock. Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by
the provisions of this Section 7.
7.1. RESTRICTIVE LEGEND. (a) The Holder by accepting this
Warrant and any Warrant Stock agrees that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock
issuable upon exercise hereof may not be assigned or otherwise transferred
unless and until (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel for the
Holder that such securities may be sold pursuant to an exemption from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")
or (ii) a registration statement relating to such securities has been filed by
the Company and declared effective by the Commission.
Each certificate for Warrant Stock issuable hereunder shall
bear a legend as follows unless such securities have been sold pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act:
"The securities represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").
The securities may not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise
transferred except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Act or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from registration under
the Act in respect of which the Company has
11
received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to such
effect. Copies of the agreement covering both the purchase of the
securities and restricting their transfer may be obtained at no cost by
written request made by the holder of record of this certificate to the
Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the
Company."
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7, the
Warrant shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially
the following form:
"This Warrant and the securities represented hereby have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may
not be transferred in violation of such Act, the rules and regulations
thereunder or the provisions of this Warrant."
7.2. NOTICE OF PROPOSED TRANSFERS. Prior to any Transfer or
attempted Transfer of any Warrants or any shares of Restricted Common Stock, the
Holder shall give ten days' prior written notice (a "Transfer Notice") to the
Company of Holder's intention to effect such Transfer, describing the manner and
circumstances of the proposed Transfer, and obtain from counsel to Holder who
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, an opinion that the proposed
Transfer of such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock may be effected
without registration under the Securities Act. After receipt of the Transfer
Notice and opinion, the Company shall, within five days thereof, notify the
Holder as to whether such opinion is reasonably satisfactory and, if so, such
holder shall thereupon be entitled to Transfer such Warrants or such Restricted
Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Transfer Notice. Each
certificate, if any, evidencing such shares of Restricted Common Stock issued
upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive legend set forth in Section
7.1(a), and the Warrant issued upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive
legend set forth in Section 7.1(b), unless in the opinion of such counsel such
legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.
The Holder shall not be entitled to Transfer such Warrants or such Restricted
Common Stock until receipt of notice from the Company under this Section 7.2
that such opinion is reasonably satisfactory.
7.3. REQUIRED REGISTRATION. Pursuant to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall
prepare and file with the
12
Commission not later than March 31, 1999, a Registration Statement relating to

and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Commission to declare
such Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act as promptly as
practicable but no later than May 31, 1999.
7.4. TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of Section 7, the restrictions imposed by this Section upon
the transferability of the Warrants, the Warrant Stock and the Restricted Common
Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) and the
legend requirements of Section 7.1 shall terminate as to any particular Warrant
or share of Warrant Stock or Restricted Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of the Warrants) (i) when and so long as such security shall
have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of
pursuant thereto or (ii) when the Company shall have received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that such shares may be transferred
without registration thereof under the Securities Act. Whenever the restrictions
imposed by Section 7 shall terminate as to this Warrant, as hereinabove
provided, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company upon
written request of the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Warrant
bearing the following legend in place of the restrictive legend set forth
hereon:
"THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE WITHIN
WARRANT CONTAINED IN SECTION 7 HEREOF TERMINATED ON
________, ____, AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT."
All Warrants issued upon registration of transfer, division or combination of,
or in substitution for, any Warrant or Warrants entitled to bear such legend
shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon. Whenever the restrictions imposed
by this Section shall terminate as to any share of Restricted Common Stock, as
hereinabove provided, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the
Company, a new certificate representing such Common Stock not bearing the
restrictive legend set forth in Section 7.1(a).
8. SUPPLYING INFORMATION
The Company shall cooperate with Holder in supplying such
information as may be reasonably necessary
13
for Holder to complete and file any information reporting forms presently or
hereafter required by the Commission as a condition to the availability of an
exemption from the Securities Act for the sale of any Warrant or Restricted
Common Stock.
9. LOSS OR MUTILATION
Upon receipt by the Company from Holder of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (it being
understood that the written agreement of the Holder shall be sufficient
indemnity), and in case of mutilation upon surrender and cancellation hereof,
the Company will execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor
to Holder; PROVIDED, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be required
if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for
cancellation.
