Section 2. Term
of Warrants; Exercise of Warrant.
2.1. Exercise of
Warrant. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Holder
shall have the right, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., Spokane Time, on the
Expiration Date, to purchase from the Company up to the number of fully paid and
nonassessable Shares to which the Holder may at the time be entitled to purchase
pursuant to this Agreement, upon surrender to the Company, at its principal
office, of the Warrant to be exercised, together with the purchase form on the
reverse thereof, or the Warrant Conversion Exercise Form in the case of a
warrant conversion pursuant to Section 2.3 herein, duly filled in and signed,
and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price for the number of Shares
in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised, but in no event for less
than 100 Shares (unless fewer than an aggregate of 100 shares are then
purchasable under all outstanding Warrants held by a
Holder).
2.2 Payment of Exercise
Price. The payment of the Exercise Price shall be made in cash
or by check or any combination thereof. Warrant holders may also make payment of
the Exercise Price by Warrant conversion. Warrant holders wishing to pay all or
any part of the Exercise Price by Warrant conversion should contact the Company
for further information and the appropriate forms.
2.3. Conversion
Right. In addition to and without limiting the rights of the
Warrantholder under the terms of the Warrant, the Holder shall have the right
(the “Conversion Right”) to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof into
Shares as provided in this Section 2.3 at any time or from time to time prior to
its expiration.
(a) Upon
exercise of the Conversion Right with respect to a particular number of Warrants
(the "Converted Warrants"), the Company shall deliver to the Holder, without
payment by the Holder of any Exercise Price or any cash or other consideration,
that number of Shares computed using the following formula:
X = Y(A-B)
A
Where:
|
X
= the
number of Shares and/or Warrants to be issued to the
Holder;
|
Y
= the
number of Shares and/or Warrants to be converted under this
Warrant;
A = the Current Market Price of one share of Common Stock; and
B = the Share Exercise Price.
A = the Current Market Price of one share of Common Stock; and
B = the Share Exercise Price.
2
No
fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right, and
if the number of Shares to be issued in accordance with the foregoing formula is
other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash
equal to such fraction multiplied by the Current Market Price.
b. The
Conversion Right may be exercised by the Holder by the surrender of the Warrant
at the principal office of the Company or at the office of the Company’s stock
transfer agent, if any, together with a written statement specifying that the
Holder thereby intends to exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the
number of Shares subject to the Warrant which are being surrendered on the
reverse side of the Warrant, in exercise of the Conversion
Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company
of the Warrant, or on such later date as is specified therein (the “Conversion
Date”), but not later than the Expiration Date. Certificates for the
Converted Shares issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right, together with a
check in payment of any fractional Warrant Share and, in the case of a partial
exercise a new Warrant evidencing the Warrant Shares remaining subject to the
Warrant, shall be issued as of the Conversion Date and shall be delivered to the
Holder within seven (7) days following the Conversion
Date.
2.4. Issuance of
Shares. Upon such surrender of the Warrants and payment of
such Exercise Price as aforesaid, the Company shall issue and cause to be
delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the
Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or
certificates for the number of full Shares so purchased upon the exercise of the
Warrant, together with cash, as provided in Section 13 hereof, in respect of any
fractional Shares otherwise issuable upon such
surrender.
2.5. Holder of
Shares. Upon receipt of the Warrant by the company as
described in Sections 2.1.or 2.3. above, the Holder shall be deemed to be the
holder of record of the Shares issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that
the transfer books of the Company may then be closed or that certificates
representing such Shares may not have been prepared or actually delivered to the
Holder.
Section 3. Transferability
and Form of Warrant.
3.1. Limitation on
Transfer. Any assignment or transfer of a Warrant shall be
made by the presentation and surrender of the Warrant to the Company at its
principal office or the office of its transfer agent, if any, accompanied by a
duly executed Assignment Form. Upon the presentation and surrender of
these items to the Company, the Company, at its sole expense, shall execute and
deliver to the new Holder or Holders a new Warrant or Warrants, in the name of
the new Holder or Holders as named in the Assignment Form, and the Warrant
presented or surrendered shall at that time be
canceled.
3.2. Exchange of
Certificate. Any Warrant may be exchanged for another
certificate or certificates entitling the Warrantholder to purchase a like
aggregate number of Shares as the certificate or certificates surrendered then
entitled such Warrantholder to purchase. Any Warrantholder desiring
to exchange a Warrant shall make such request in writing delivered to the
Company, and shall surrender, properly endorsed, with signatures guaranteed, the
certificate evidencing the Warrant to be so exchanged. Thereupon, the
Company shall execute and deliver to the person entitled thereto a new Warrant
as so requested.
3.3. Mutilated, Lost,
Stolen, or Destroyed
Certificate. In case the
certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrants shall be mutilated, lost,
stolen or destroyed, the Company shall, at the request of the Warrantholder,
issue and deliver in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the
mutilated certificate or certificates, or in lieu of and substitution for the
certificate or certificates lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant or
certificates of like tenor and representing an equivalent right or interest, but
only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or
destruction of such Warrant and a bond of indemnity, if requested, also
satisfactory in form and amount, at the applicant’s cost. Applicants
for such substitute Warrant shall also comply with such other reasonable
regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may
prescribe.

Section
4. Adjustment of Number
of Shares.
The number and kind of securities purchasable
upon the exercise of the Warrants and the Warrant Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as
follows:
4.1. Adjustments. The
number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be subject
to adjustments as follows:
(a) In case the Company
shall (i) pay a dividend in Common Stock or make a distribution to its
stockholders in Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock, (iii)
combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common
Stock, or (iv) issue by classification of its Common Stock other securities of
the Company, the number of Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants
immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Warrantholder shall be
entitled to receive the kind and number of Shares or other securities of the
Company which it would have owned or would have been entitled to receive
immediately after the happening of any of the events described above, had the
Warrants been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event or any
record date with respect thereto. Any adjustment made pursuant to
this subsection 4.1.(a) shall become effective immediately after the effective
date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such
event.
(b) In case the Company
shall issue rights, options, warrants, or convertible securities to all or
substantially all holders of its Common Stock, without any charge to such
holders, entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per
share which is lower at the record date mentioned below than the then Current
Market Price, the number of Shares thereafter purchasable upon the exercise of
each Warrant shall be determined by multiplying the number of Shares theretofore
purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants by a fraction, of which the numerator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
the issuance of such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities plus
the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or
purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such rights, options,
warrants, or convertible securities plus the number of shares which the
aggregate offering price of the total number of shares offered would purchase at
such Current Market Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever
such rights, options, warrants, or convertible securities are issued, and shall
become effective immediately and retroactively to the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options,
warrants, or convertible securities.
(c) In case the Company
shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock
evidences of its indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends or
distributions out of earnings) or rights, options, warrants, or convertible
securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock
(excluding those referred to in subsection 4.1(b) above), then in each case the
number of Shares thereafter purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall
be determined by multiplying the number of Shares theretofore purchasable upon
exercise of the Warrants by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the then
Current Market Price on the date of such distribution, and of which the
denominator shall be such Current Market Price on such date minus the then fair
value (determined as
provided in subparagraph (e) below) of the portion of the assets or
evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such subscription rights,
options, warrants, or convertible securities applicable to one
share. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution
is made and shall become effective on the date of distribution retroactive to
the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution.
(d) No adjustment in the
number of Shares purchasable pursuant to the Warrants shall be required unless
such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent in
the number of Shares then purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants or, if
the Warrants are not then exercisable, the number of Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of the Warrants on the first date thereafter that the Warrants become
exercisable; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this
subsection (4.1(d)) are not required to be made immediately shall be carried
forward and taken into account in any subsequent
adjustment.
(e) Whenever the number
of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein
provided, the Exercise Price payable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be
adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment
by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares
so purchasable immediately thereafter.
4
(f) Whenever the number
of Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants is adjusted as herein
provided, the Company shall cause to be promptly mailed to the Warrantholder by
first class mail, postage prepaid, notice of such adjustment and a certificate
of the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth the number of Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants after such adjustment, a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation by which
such adjustment was made.
(g) For the purpose of
this Section 4.1, the term “Common Stock” shall mean (i) the class of stock
designated as the Common Stock of the Company at the date of this Agreement, or
(ii) any other class of stock resulting from successive changes or
reclassifications of such Common Stock consisting solely of changes in par
value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par
value. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment
made pursuant to this Section 4, the Warrantholder shall become entitled to
purchase any securities of the Company other than Common Stock, (y) if the
Warrantholder’s right to purchase is on any other basis than that available to
all holders of the Company’s Common Stock, the Company shall obtain an opinion
of an independent investment banking firm valuing such other securities and (z)
thereafter the number of such other securities so purchasable upon exercise of
the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on
terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the
Shares contained in this Section 4.
(h) Upon the expiration
of any rights, options, warrants, or conversion privileges, if such shall have
not been exercised, the number of Shares purchasable upon exercise of the
Warrants, to the extent the Warrants have not then been exercised, shall, upon
such expiration, be readjusted and shall thereafter be such as they would have
been had they been originally adjusted (or had the original adjustment not been
required, as the case may be) on the basis of (i) the fact that the only shares
of Common Stock so issued were the shares of Common Stock, if any, actually
issued or sold upon the exercise of such rights, options, warrants, or
conversion privileges, and (ii) the fact that such shares of Common Stock, if
any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company
upon such exercise plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the
Company for the issuance, sale or grant of all such rights, options, warrants,
or conversion privileges whether or not exercised; provided, however, that no
such readjustment shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Shares
purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants by an amount in excess of the amount
of the adjustment initially made in respect of the issuance, sale, or grant of
such rights, options, warrants, or conversion rights.
4.2. No Adjustment for
Dividends. Except as provided in Section 4.1, no adjustment in
respect of any dividends or distributions out of earnings shall be made during
the term of the Warrants or upon the exercise of the
Warrants.
4.3. No Adjustment in
Certain Cases. No adjustments shall be made pursuant to
Section 4 hereof in connection with the issuance of the Common Stock upon
exercise of the Warrants. No adjustments shall be made pursuant to
Section 4 hereof in connection with grant or exercise of presently authorized or
outstanding options to purchase, or the issuance of shares of Common Stock under
the Company’s director or employee benefit plan.
4.4. Preservation of
Purchase Rights upon Reclassification, Consolidation, etc. In
case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company into
another corporation, or in case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation
of the property, assets, or business of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, the Company or such successor or purchasing
corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholder an
agreement that the Warrantholder shall have the right thereafter upon payment of
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to purchase, upon
exercise of the Warrants, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and
property which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the
happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, or conveyance had the Warrants
been exercised immediately prior to such action. In the event of a
merger described in Section 368(a)(2)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the right to purchase Shares
under the Warrants shall terminate on the date of such merger and thereupon the
Warrants shall become null and void, but only if the controlling corporation
shall agree to substitute for the Warrants, its warrants which entitle the
holder thereof to purchase upon their exercise the kind and amount of shares and
other securities and property which it would have owned or been entitled to
receive had the Warrants been exercised immediately prior to such
merger. Any such agreements referred to in this Section 4.4 shall
provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in Section 4 hereof. The
provisions of this Section (4.4) shall similarly apply to successive
consolidations, mergers, sales, or conveyances.
5
4.5. Par Value of Shares
of Common Stock. Before taking any action which would cause an
adjustment effectively reducing the portion of the Exercise Price allocable to
each Share below the par value per share of the Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants, the Company will take any corporate action which may,
in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock upon
exercise of the Warrants.
4.6. Independent Public
Accountants. The Company may retain a firm of independent
public accountants of recognized national standing (which may be any such firm
regularly employed by the Company) to make any computation required under this
Section 4, and a certificate signed by such firm shall be conclusive evidence of
the correctness of any computation made under this Section
4.
4.7. Statement on
Warrants. Irrespective of any adjustments in the number of
securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, Warrants theretofore or
thereafter issued may continue to express the same number of securities as are
stated in the similar Warrants initially issuable pursuant to this
Agreement. However, the Company may, at any time in its sole
discretion (which shall be conclusive), make any change in the form of Warrant
that it may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof; and
any Warrant thereafter issued, whether upon registration of transfer of, or in
exchange or substitution for, an outstanding Warrant, may be in the form so
changed.
4.8. Treasury
Stock. For purposes of this Section 4, shares of Common Stock
owned or held at any relevant time by, or for the account of, the Company, in
its treasury or otherwise, shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of
the calculations and adjustments described.
Section
5. Reserved.
Section
6. Notice to
Holders.
If, prior to the expiration of this Warrant
either by its terms or by its exercise in full, any of the following shall
occur:
|
(a)
|
the
Company shall declare a dividend or authorize any other distribution on
its Common Stock; or
|
(b)
|
the
Company shall authorize the granting to the shareholders of its Common
Stock of rights to subscribe for or purchase any securities or any other
similar rights; or
|
(c)
|
any
reclassification, reorganization or similar change of the Common Stock, or
any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, or the sale,
lease, or exchange of any significant portion of the assets of the
Company; or
|
(d)
|
the
voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the
Company; or
|
(e)
|
any
purchase, retirement or redemption by the Company of its Common
Stock;
|
then, and
in any such case, the Company shall deliver to the Holder or Holders written
notice thereof at least 30 days prior to the earliest applicable date specified
below with respect to which notice is to be given, which notice shall state the
following:
6
(x)
|
the
date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or rights, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of
which the shareholders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such
dividend, distribution or rights are to be
determined;
|
(y)
|
the
date on which such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation,
merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or purchase,
retirement or redemption is expected to become effective, and the date, if
any, as of which the Company's shareholders of Common Stock of record
shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other
property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding
up, purchase, retirement or redemption;
and
|
(z)
|
if
any matters referred to in the foregoing clauses (x) and (y) are to be
voted upon by shareholders of Common Stock, the date as of which those
shareholders to be entitled to vote are to be
determined.
|
Section
7. Officers'
Certificate.
Whenever the Exercise Price or the aggregate
number of Warrant Securities purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall be
adjusted as required by the provisions of Section 4 above, the Company shall
promptly file with its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary at its principal
office, and with its transfer agent, if any, an officers' certificate executed
by the Company's President and Secretary or Assistant Secretary, describing the
adjustment and setting forth, in reasonable detail, the facts requiring such
adjustment and the basis for and calculation of such adjustment in accordance
with the provisions of this Warrant. Each such officers' certificate shall
be made available to the Holder or Holders of this Warrant for inspection at all
reasonable times, and the Company, after each such adjustment, shall promptly
deliver a copy of the officers' certificate relating to that adjustment to the
Holder or Holders of this Warrant. The officers' certificate described in
this Section 7 shall be deemed to be conclusive as to the correctness of the
adjustment reflected therein if, and only if, no Holder of this Warrant delivers
written notice to the Company of an objection to the adjustment within 30 days
after the officers' certificate is delivered to the Holder or Holders of this
Warrant. The Company will make its books and records available for
inspection and copying during normal business hours by the Holder so as to
permit a determination as to the correctness of the adjustment. If written
notice of an objection is delivered by a Holder to the Company and the parties
cannot reconcile the dispute, the Holder and the Company shall submit the
dispute to arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Section 20 below.
Failure to prepare or provide the officers' certificate shall not modify the
parties' rights hereunder.
Section
8. Reservation of
Warrant Securities.
There has been reserved, and the Company shall
at all times keep reserved so long as the Warrants remain outstanding, out of
its authorized and unissued Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock
as shall be subject to purchase under the Warrants. Every transfer
agent for the Common Stock and other securities of the Company issuable upon the
exercise of the Warrants will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all
times to reserve such number of authorized shares and other securities as shall
be requisite for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this
Agreement on file with every transfer agent for the Common Stock and other
securities of the Company issuable upon the exercise of the
Warrants. The Company will supply every such transfer agent with duly
executed stock and other certificates, as appropriate, for such purpose and will
provide or otherwise make available any cash which may be payable as provided in
Section 13 hereof.
Section 9. Restrictions
on Transfer.
The Warrantholder agrees that prior to making
any disposition of the Warrants or the Shares, the Warrantholder
shall give written notice to the Company describing briefly the manner in which
any such proposed disposition is to be made; and no such disposition shall be
made if the Company has notified the Warrantholder that in the opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Warrantholder, there is no applicable
exemption from the registration requirements under the Act available for the
disposition, and a registration statement or other notification or
post-effective amendment thereto (hereinafter collectively a “Registration
Statement”) under the Act is required with respect to such disposition and no
such Registration Statement has been filed by the Company with, and declared
effective, if necessary, by, the Commission.
7
Section
10. Payment
of Taxes.
The Company will pay all
documentary stamp taxes, if any, attributable to the initial issuance
of the Warrants or the securities comprising the Shares; provided, however, the
Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of
any transfer of the Warrants or the securities comprising the
Shares.
Section 11. Transfer
to Comply With the Securities Act of 1933.
This Warrant, the Warrant Securities, and all
other securities issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, may not be
offered, sold or transferred, in whole or in part, except in compliance with the
Act, and except in compliance with all applicable state securities
laws. The Company may cause substantially the following legends, or
their equivalents, to be set forth on each certificate representing the Warrant
Securities, or any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant, not theretofore distributed to the public or sold to underwriters, as
defined by the Act, for distribution to the public pursuant to Section 8
above
(a)
|
"THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS
AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, EXCHANGED, HYPOTHECATED OR TRANSFERRED IN ANY MANNER
EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO WHICH THEY WERE
ISSUED.”
|
(b)
|
Any
legend required by applicable state securities
laws.
|
Any certificate issued at any time in exchange
or substitution for any certificate bearing such legends (except a new
certificate issued upon completion of a public distribution pursuant to a
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
or the securities represented thereby) shall also bear the above legends unless,
in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, the securities represented thereby need
no longer be subject to such restrictions.
Section 12. Fractional
Shares.
No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon
the exercise of all or any part of this Warrant. With respect to any
fraction of a share of any security called for upon any exercise of this
Warrant, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in money equal to that
fraction multiplied by the Current Market Price of that share.
Section
13. No Rights as
Stockholder; Notices to
Warrantholder.
Nothing contained in this Agreement or in the
Warrants shall be construed as conferring upon the Warrantholder or its
transferees any rights as a stockholder of the Company, including the right to
vote, receive dividends, consent or receive notices as a stockholder in respect
to any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors of the Company or
any other matter. The Company covenants, however, that for so long as
this Warrant is at least partially unexercised, it will furnish any Holder of
this Warrant with copies of all reports and communications furnished to the
shareholders of the Company. In addition, if at any time prior to the
expiration of the Warrants and prior to their exercise, any one or more of the
following events shall occur:
(a) any action which would require an
adjustment pursuant to Section 4.1 (except subsections 4.1(e) and 4.1(h) or 4.4;
or
(b) a dissolution, liquidation, or
winding up of the Company (other than in connection with a consolidation,
merger, or sale of its property, assets, and business as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety) shall be proposed:
then the
Company shall give notice in writing of such event to the Warrantholder, as
provided in Section 16 hereof, at least 20 days prior to the date fixed as a
record date or the date of closing the transfer books for the determination of
the stockholders entitled to any relevant dividend, distribution, subscription
rights or other rights or for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote
on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, or winding up. Such notice
shall specify such record date or the date of closing the transfer
books, as the case may be. Failure to mail or receive notice or any
defect therein shall not affect the validity of any action taken with respect
thereto.
8
Section 14. Charges
Due Upon Exercise.
The Company shall pay any and all issue or
transfer taxes, including, but not limited to, all federal or state taxes, that
