----------
THIS WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK is being issued pursuant to that
certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the "Purchase
Agreement") between World Golf League, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company") and DLC Capital Group, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company
("Holder").
1.1 Warrants. The Company hereby grants to Holder the right to purchase
--------
500,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Shares" or "Warrant
Shares") at a price per share equal to the Exercise Price set forth in section
2.4 below. Defined terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to
them in the Debenture or the Securities Purchase Agreement. This Warrant shall
expire and Holder shall no longer be able to purchase the Warrant Shares on the
Expiration Date.
ARTICLE 2
EXERCISE
--------
2.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering a
-------------------
duly executed Warrant Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as
Appendix 1 to the principal office of the Company's Transfer Agent, along with
----------
the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares being purchased.
2.2 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. As promptly as practicable
-----------------------------------------
after the receipt of the Warrant Notice of Exercise, but in any event not more
than two (2) Business Days after the Company's receipt of the Warrant Notice of
Exercise, the Company through its Transfer Agent shall issue the Shares and
cause to be delivered via DWAC electronic delivery, or if unavailable, mailed
for delivery by overnight courier to Holder a certificate representing the
Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not
expired, a new Warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant representing
the right to acquire the portion of the Shares not so acquired.
2.3 Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
-----------------------
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity
agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company and the
posting of a reasonable bond as may be required or permitted by the applicable
Uniform Commercial Code or, in the case of mutilation, or surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall execute and
deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor.
2.4 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares shall be
---------------
equal to the lesser of (i) $0.25, or (ii) 70% of the average of the 5 lowest
Volume Weighted Average Prices during the 20 Trading Days prior to exercise
date. For purpose of this Warrant, "Volume Weighted Average Price" per Common
Share means the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares during any
Trading Day as reported on the NASDAQ OTCBB; provided that, if such security is
not listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ OTCBB, as reported on the
principal national security exchange or quotation system on which such security
is quoted or listed or admitted to trading, or, if not quoted or listed or
admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quotation system, the
volume weighted average price of the Common Shares during any Trading Day on the
over-the-counter market as reported by Bloomberg LP or a similar generally
accepted reporting service, as the case may be.
2.5 Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
------------------
in this Warrant, if the Warrant Shares are not registered pursuant to an
effective Registration Statement within one year from the Issue Date, this
Warrant may be exercised by presentation and surrender of this Warrant to the
Company at its principal executive offices with a written notice of Holder's
intention to effect a cashless exercise, including a calculation of the number
of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise in accordance with the
terms hereof ( a "Cashless Exercise"). In the event of a Cashless Exercise, in
lieu of paying the Exercise Price in cash, Holder shall surrender this Warrant
for that number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the number
of Warrant Shares to which it otherwise would be entitled by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the difference between the then current Market Price
per share of the Common Stock and the Exercise Price, and the denominator or
which shall be the then current Market Price per share of Common Stock.
ARTICLE 3
ADJUSTMENT TO THE SHARES
------------------------
The number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:
3.1 Reclassification. In case of any reclassification or change of
----------------
outstanding securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then,
and in any such case, the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the
consummation of such reclassification or change, shall be entitled to receive in
lieu of each Share theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind
and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and/or property received
upon such reclassification or change by a holder of one Share. The provisions of
this Section 2.1 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or
changes.
3.2 Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while
-----------------------------------
this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its
Shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a
subdivision or increased in the case of a combination.
3.3 Stock Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
---------------
outstanding shall pay a dividend with respect to its Shares payable in Shares,
or make any other distribution of Shares with respect to Shares (except any
distribution specifically provided for in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 above),
then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, effective from and after the date of
determination of shareholders entitled to received such dividend or
distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction, (a) the
numerator of which shall be the total number of Shares outstanding immediately
prior to such dividend or distribution, and (b) the denominator of which shall
be the total number of Shares outstanding immediately after such dividend or
distribution.
3.4 Non-Cash Dividends. If the Company at any time while this Warrant is
-------------------
outstanding shall pay a dividend with respect to Shares payable in securities
other than Shares or other non-cash property, or make any other distribution of
such securities or property with respect to Shares (except any distribution
specifically provided for in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 above), then this
Warrant shall represent the right to acquire upon exercise of this Warrant such
securities or property which a holder of Shares would have been entitled to
receive upon such dividend or distribution, without the payment by the Holder of
any additional consideration for such securities or property.
3.5 Effect of Reorganization and Asset Sales. If any (i) reorganization or
----------------------------------------
reclassification of the Common Stock (ii) consolidation or merger of the Company
with or into another corporation, or (iii) sale or all or substantially all of
the Company's operating assets to another corporation followed by a liquidation
of the Company (any such transaction shall be referred to herein as an "Event"),
is effected in such a way that holders of common Stock are entitled to receive
securities and/or assets as a result of their Common Stock ownership, the
Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be entitled to receive such shares
of stock securities or assets which the Holder would have received had it fully
exercised this Warrant on or prior the record date for such Event. The Company
shall not merge into or consolidate with another corporation or sell all of its
assets to another corporation for a consideration consisting primarily of
securities of such corporation, unless the successor or acquiring corporation,
as the case may be, shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and
performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be
performed or observed by the Company and all of the obligations and liabilities
hereunder, subject to such modification as shall be necessary to provide for
adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 2. The foregoing provisions shall
similarly apply to successive mergers, consolidations or sales of assets.
3.6 Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the Exercise
--------------------------------
Price, the number of Shares shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole share, to
the product obtained by multiplying the number of Shares, purchasable
immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be the Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator
of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately thereafter.
3.7 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its articles of
--------------
incorporation or through a 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 to be
observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times
in good faith assist in carrying out all of the provisions of this Warrant and
in taking all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to
protect Holder's rights hereunder against impairment. If the Company takes any
action affecting its Common Stock other than as described above that adversely
affects Holder's rights under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
downward and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be adjusted upward in such a manner that the aggregate Exercise Price of this
Warrant is unchanged.
3.8 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon the
------------------
exercise of this Warrant, and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded
down to the nearest whole Share.
3.9 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise
--------------------------------
Price, the Company, at its expense, shall compute such adjustment and furnish
Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such
adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall,
upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Exercise
Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to
such Exercise Price.
3.10 No Rights of Shareholders. This Warrant does not entitle Holder to any
------------------------
voting rights or any other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the
exercise of Holder's right to purchase Shares as provided herein.
3.11 Anti-dilution Adjustment. If and whenever after the date hereof, the
-------------------------
Company shall issue or sell any shares of its common stock for a consideration
per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time
of issue or sale, then forthwith the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the
prices (calculated to the nearest tenth of a cent) determined by dividing (1) an
amount equal to the sum of (aa) the number of Common Shares outstanding
immediately prior to such issue or sale (assuming the conversion and exercise of
all securities convertible or exercisable into Common Shares) multiplied by the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale, and (bb) the
consideration, if any, received and deemed received by the Company upon such
issue or sale, by (2) the total number of Common Shares outstanding and deemed
outstanding immediately after such issue or sale. No adjustment of the Exercise
Price, however, shall be made in an amount less that $.01 per share, but any
such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time
and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any
adjustments so carried forward shall amount to $.01 per share or more.
