WARRANT
This certifies that, for value received, _________________, or registered
assigns (the "Holder"), is entitled to purchase at a price of _______________
($________) per share (the "Exercise Price"), subject to the provisions of this
Warrant, from XXXXXXXXXX.XXX INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware corporation, (the
"Company"), ______________________ (________________) shares of the unregistered
Common Stock of the Company (the "Warrant Stock").
1. Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part
at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof, but not later than
5:00 p.m., Mountain Standard Time, on , , or if such date is a day on which
federal or state chartered banking institutions are authorized by law to close,
then on the next succeeding day which shall not be such a day, by presentation
and surrender thereof to the Company at its principal office or at the office of
its stock transfer agent, if any, with the Purchase Form annexed hereto duly
executed and accompanied by payment, in cash or by certified or official bank
check, payable to the order of the Company, of the Exercise Price for the number
of shares of Warrant Stock specified in such form, together with all taxes
applicable upon such exercise. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only,
the Company shall upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, execute and
deliver a new Warrant of the same tenor evidencing the right of the Holder to
purchase the balance of the shares of Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder upon
the same terms and conditions as herein set forth. Upon and as of receipt by the
Company of this Warrant at the office or stock transfer agent of the Company, in
proper form for exercise, and accompanied by payment as herein provided, the
Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Warrant Stock
issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of
the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such shares
of Warrant Stock shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder.
2. Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that at
all times during the period this Warrant is exercisable it shall reserve from
its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for issuance and delivery
upon exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of its Warrant Stock as
shall be required for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant. The
Company agrees that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority
to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to
execute and issue the necessary certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant.
3. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or stock representing fractional
shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any
fractional shares which would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash
equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of one
share of the Warrant Stock on the date of exercise, as determined in good faith
by the Company's Board of Directors.
4. Transfer, Exchange, Assignment or Loss of Warrant.
(a) This Warrant may not be assigned or transferred except as provided
herein and in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Securities
Act of 1933 and the Rules and Regulations promulgated thereunder (said Act and
such Rules and Regulations being hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Act"). Any purported transfer or assignment made other than in accordance with
this Section 4 and Section 8 hereof shall be null and void and of no force and
effect.
(b) This Warrant may be transferred or assigned only with the written
consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition,
this Warrant shall be transferable only upon the opinion of counsel satisfactory
to the Company, which may be counsel to the Company, that (i) the transferee is
a person to whom the Warrant may be legally transferred without registration
under the Act; and (ii) such transfer will not violate any applicable law or
governmental rule or
36
14
regulation including, without limitation, any applicable federal or state
securities law, as further referenced in Section 8 below. Prior to the transfer
or assignment, the assignor or transferor shall reimburse the Company for its
reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the
transfer or assignment.
(c) Any assignment permitted hereunder shall be made by surrender of
this Warrant to the Company at its principal office with the Assignment Form
annexed hereto duly executed and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax. In
such event the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant
in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this
Warrant shall promptly be canceled. This Warrant may be divided or combined with
other Warrants which carry the same rights upon presentation thereof at the
principal office of the Company together with a written notice signed by the
Holder thereof, specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are
to be issued. The terms "Warrant" and "Warrants" as used herein includes any
Warrants in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant, or into which this
Warrant may be divided or exchanged.
(d) Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of
loss, theft or destruction) of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and upon
surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will
execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date and any such lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall thereupon become void. Any such new
Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute an additional contractual
obligation on the part of the Company, whether or not the Warrant so lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
(e) Each Holder of this Warrant, the shares of Warrant Stock issued
hereunder or any other security issued or issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and
officers, and each person, if any, who controls the Company, against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or any
such director, officer or any such person may become subject under the Act or
statute or common law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
or actions in respect thereof, arise out of or are based upon the disposition by
such Holder of the Warrant, the shares of Warrant Stock acquired under the
Warrant, or other such securities in violation of this Warrant.
5. Rights of the Holder. The Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be
entitled to any rights of a shareholder in the Company, either at law or equity,
and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and
are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein.
6. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The number and kind
of securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price
of such securities shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of certain events as follows:
(a) Adjustment for Dividends in Stock. In case at any time or from time
to time on or after the date hereof the holders of the Common Stock of the
Company (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon
the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received, or, on or after the record
date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become
entitled to receive without payment therefor, other or additional stock of the
Company by way of dividend, then and in each case, the Holder of this Warrant
shall, upon the exercise hereof be entitled to receive, in addition to the
number of shares of Warrant Stock receivable thereupon, and without payment of
any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional
stock of Company which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had
it been the holder of record of such shares of Warrant Stock on the date hereof
and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the
additional stock receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect
to all adjustments called for during such period by paragraphs (a) and (b) of
this Section 6.
(b) Adjustment for Reclassification, Reorganization or Merger. In case
of any reclassification or change of the outstanding securities of the Company
or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or
securities of which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) on or after the date hereof, or in case, after such date, the Company
(or any such other corporation) shall merge with or into another corporation or
convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then and
in each such case the Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof at any
time after the consummation of such reclassification, change, reorganization,
merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or
other securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such
consummation, the stock or other securities or property which such Holder would
have been entitled upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised this
Warrant immediately prior thereto. In each such case, the terms of this Section
6 shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities properly
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.
37
15
(c) Stock Splits and Reverse Stock Splits. If at any time on or after
the date hereof the Company shall subdivide its outstanding shares of Warrant
Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such subdivision shall thereby be proportionately reduced and the
number of shares of Warrant Stock receivable upon exercise of the Warrant shall
thereby be proportionately increased; and, conversely, if at any time on or
after the date hereof the outstanding number of shares of Warrant Stock shall be
combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination shall thereby be proportionately increased
and the number of shares of Warrant Stock receivable upon exercise of the
Warrant shall thereby be proportionately decreased.
7. Officer's Certificate. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of
shares of Warrant Stock that may be acquired under the Warrant shall be adjusted
as required by the provisions of Section 6 hereof, the Company shall forthwith
file with its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary at its principal office, and
with its stock transfer agent, if any, an officer's certificate showing the
adjusted Exercise Price and shares of Warrant Stock determined as herein
provided and setting forth in reasonable detail the facts requiring such
adjustment. Each such officer's certificate shall be made available at all
reasonable times for inspection by the Holder, and the Company shall, forthwith
after each such adjustment, deliver a copy of such certificate to the Holder.
8. Transfer to Comply with the Securities Act of 1933.
(a) This Warrant and the shares of Warrant Stock issued hereunder or
any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may not be
sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, except to a person who, in the
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, is a person to whom
this Warrant or such shares of Warrant Stock may legally be transferred pursuant
to Section 4 hereof without registration and without the delivery of a current
prospectus under the Act with respect thereto and then only against receipt of
an agreement of such person to comply with the provision of this Section 8 with
respect to any resale or other disposition of such securities unless, in the
opinion of such counsel, such agreement is not required.
(b) The Company may cause the following legend to be set forth on each
certificate representing shares of Warrant Stock acquired under this Warrant or
any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless
counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such certificate that such
legend is unnecessary:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933 (THE "ACT") OR APPLICABLE STATE LAW AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED
UNDER THE ACT OR STATE LAW OR, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE
SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES, SUCH OFFER, SALE, OR TRANSFER,
PLEDGE, OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH.
9. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Utah excluding that body of law
pertaining to conflicts of law.
10. Notice. Notices and other communications to be given to the Holder of
the Warrants evidenced by this certificate shall be delivered by hand or mailed,
