4. Representations
and Warranties of the Company.
The
Company hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the
Holder that:

and Authority.

existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
incorporation, and (i) each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has all
requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties
and to carry on its business as described in the SEC Reports and as currently
conducted, and (ii) the Company has all requisite corporate power and authority
to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Amendment Transaction
Documents to be executed and delivered by the Company in connection herewith,
and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; and the

the Subsidiaries listed in the SEC Reports and (y) Subsidiaries which do not,
individually or in the aggregate, have any material revenue, assets or
liabilities.
(b) Qualifications.
The
Company and each of the Subsidiaries are duly qualified to do business as
foreign corporations and are in good standing in all jurisdictions where such
qualification is necessary and where failure so to qualify could have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(c) Amendment
Transaction Documents.
The
Amendment Transaction Documents have been duly and validly authorized by the
Company; this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and,
assuming due execution and delivery by the Holder, this Agreement is, and the
Amended Security Agreements will be, when duly executed and delivered by the
Company, and the Amended Note and Amended Warrant will be, when executed and
delivered by the Company, valid and binding obligations of the Company
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as the
enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws now or hereafter in
effect relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and general
principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law.
10
(d) Concerning
the Shares and the Common Stock.
The
Shares have been duly authorized and the Conversion Shares and the Preferred
Shares, if any, when issued upon conversion of the Amended Note, and the Warrant
Shares, when issued upon exercise of the Amended Warrant and the Underlying
Shares when issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, in each such case
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not
subject the holder thereof to personal liability by reason of being such holder.
The Company has duly reserved 13,207,564 shares of Common Stock exclusively for
issuance upon conversion of the Amended Note and the Other Amended Notes or the
Preferred Shares, as the case may be, and exercise of the Amended Warrant and
the Other Amended Warrants, and such shares shall remain so reserved, and the
Company shall from time to time reserve such additional shares of Common Stock
as shall be required to be reserved pursuant to the Amended Note, the Other
Amended Notes, the Certificate of Designations, and the Amended Warrant, so long
as the Amended Note, the Other Amended Notes or the Amended Warrant are
outstanding. The Common Stock is trading on the OTCBB. The Company knows of no
reason that the Shares will not be eligible for quotation on the OTCBB. The
Company acknowledges that the Securities may be pledged in connection with a
bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the
Securities and such pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer,
sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and the Holder shall not be
required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any
delivery to the Company pursuant to the Amendment Transaction Documents; provided, however, that in
order to make any sale, transfer or assignment of Securities in connection with
a foreclosure or realization on such pledge, the Holder or its pledgee shall
make such disposition in accordance with, or pursuant to a registration
statement or an exemption under, the 1933 Act.
(e) Non-contravention.
The
execution and delivery of the Amendment Transaction Documents by the Company and
the consummation by the Company of the issuance of the Securities and the other
transactions contemplated by the Amendment Transaction Documents do not and will
not, with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, (i)
result in any violation of any provision of the certificate of incorporation or
by-laws of the Company or any subsidiary, (ii) conflict with or result in a
breach by the Company or any Subsidiary of any of the terms or provisions of, or
constitute a default under, or result in the modification of, or result in the
creation or imposition of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance
(other than pursuant to the Security Agreements) upon any of the properties or
assets of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to, any indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any
Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their
respective properties or assets are bound or affected, in any such case which
would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) violate or
contravene any applicable law, rule or regulation or any applicable decree,
judgment or order of any court, United States federal or state regulatory body,
administrative agency or other governmental body having jurisdiction over the
Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets, in
any such case which could have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) have any
material adverse effect on any permit, certification, registration, approval,
consent, license or franchise necessary for the Company or any Subsidiary to own
or lease and operate any of its properties and to conduct any of its business or
the ability of the Company or any Subsidiary to make use thereof.
11
(f) Approvals.
No
authorization, approval or consent of, or filing with, any court, governmental
body, regulatory agency, self-regulatory organization, or stock exchange or
market or the stockholders of the Company is necessary to be obtained or made by

Amendment Transaction Documents and the consummation of the other transactions

been obtained and are in effect, (2) the requirement for the SEC to declare

or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the
Company, the Common Stock or any of the Subsidiary or any of the Company’s or
Subsidiary’s officers or directors in their capacity as such wherein an
unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would have a material adverse effect on
the business, properties, operations, financial condition or results of
operations of the Company or the transactions contemplated by the Amendment
Transaction Documents or which could adversely affect the validity or
enforceability of, or the authority or ability of the Company to perform its
obligations under, this Agreement or any of the other Amendment Transaction
Documents.

Provided.
The
information provided by or on behalf of the Company to the Holder in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement does not contain any untrue

may increase in certain circumstances. The Company further acknowledges that,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Amendment Transaction Documents, its
obligation to issue Shares upon conversion of the Note and the Preferred Shares,
as the case may be, and upon exercise of the Warrant in accordance with this
Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Note, the Certificate of
Designations and the Warrant is, in each case, absolute and unconditional

interests of other stockholders of the Company.

liability, development, circumstance or transaction has occurred or exists, with
respect to the Company or any Subsidiary or their respective business,

CONVERSION
6.1 Right
to Convert. Subject to and upon compliance with
the provisions of this Note, the Holder shall have the right, at the Holder's
option, at any time prior to the close of business on the Maturity Date (except
that, if the Holder shall have exercised repurchase rights under Sections 5.1
and 5.2, such conversion right shall terminate with respect to the portion of
this Note to be repurchased, at the close of business on the last Trading Day
prior to the later of (x) the date the Company is required to make such
repurchase and (y) the date the Company pays or deposits in accordance with
Section 7.10 the applicable Repurchase Price unless in any such case the Company
shall default in payment due upon repurchase or) to convert the principal amount
of this Note, or any portion of such principal amount which is at least $1,000
(or such lesser principal amount of this Note as shall be outstanding at such
time), plus accrued and unpaid interest, into that number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as such shares shall then be constituted)
obtained by dividing (1) the sum of (x) the principal amount of this Note or
portion thereof being converted plus (y) accrued and unpaid interest on the
portion of the principal amount of this Note being converted to the applicable
Conversion Date plus (z) accrued and unpaid Default
Interest, if any, on the amount referred to in the immediately preceding clause
(y) to the applicable Conversion Date by (2) the Conversion Price in effect on
the applicable Conversion Date, by giving a Conversion Notice in the manner
provided in Section 6.2; provided, however,
that, if at any time this
Note is converted in whole or in part pursuant to this Section 6.1, the Company
does not have available for issuance upon such conversion as authorized and
unissued shares or in its treasury at least the number of shares of Common Stock
required to be issued pursuant hereto, then, at the election of the Holder made
by notice from the Holder to the Company, this Note (or portion hereof as to
which conversion has been requested), to the extent that sufficient shares of
Common Stock are not then available for issuance upon conversion, shall be
converted into the right to receive from the Company, in lieu of the shares of
Common Stock into which this Note or such portion hereof would otherwise be
converted and which the Company is unable to issue, payment in an amount equal
to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Common Stock
which the Company is unable to issue times (y) the arithmetic average of the
Market Price for the Common Stock during the five consecutive Trading Days
immediately prior to the applicable Conversion Date. Any such payment shall, for
all purposes of this Note, be deemed to be a payment of principal plus a premium
equal to the total amount payable less the principal portion of this Note
converted as to which such payment is required to be made because shares of
Common Stock are not then available for issuance upon such conversion. The
Holder is not entitled to any rights of a holder of Common Stock until the
Holder has converted this Note to Common Stock, and only to the extent this Note
is deemed to have been converted to Common Stock under this Article VI. For
purposes of Sections 6.5 and 6.6, whenever a provision references the shares of
Common Stock into which this Note (or a portion hereof) is convertible or the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note (or a portion
hereof) or words of similar import, any determination required by such provision
shall be made as if a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock were then
available for issuance upon conversion in full of this Note.
24
6.2 Exercise
of Conversion Privilege; Issuance of Common Stock on Conversion; No Adjustment
for Interest or Dividends. (a) In order to exercise the
conversion privilege with respect to this Note, the Holder shall give a
Conversion Notice (or such other notice which is acceptable to the Company) to
the Company and the Transfer Agent or to the office or agency designated by the
Company for such purpose by notice to the Holder. A Conversion Notice may be
given by telephone line facsimile transmission to the numbers set forth on the
form of Conversion Notice.
(b) As promptly as practicable, but in no
event later than three Trading Days, after a Conversion Notice is given, the
Company shall issue and shall deliver to the Holder or the Holder's designee the
number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of this Note
or portion hereof in accordance with the provisions of this Article and deliver
a check or cash in respect of any fractional interest in respect of a share of
Common Stock arising upon such conversion, as provided in Section 6.2(f) and, if
applicable, any cash payment required pursuant to the proviso to the first
sentence of Section 6.1 (which payment, if any, shall be paid no later than
three Trading Days after the applicable Conversion Date). In lieu of delivering
physical certificates for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon any
conversion of this Note, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating
in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer
(“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder, the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent electronically to transmit such
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder (or its designee),
by crediting the account of the Holder’s (or such designee’s) broker with DTC
through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (provided that the same
time periods herein as for stock certificates shall apply).
(c) Each conversion of this Note (or
portion hereof) shall be deemed to have been effected on the applicable
Conversion Date, and the person in whose name any certificate or certificates
for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be
deemed to have become on such Conversion Date the holder of record of the shares
represented thereby; provided, however,
that if a Conversion Date
is a date on which the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed such
conversion shall constitute the person in whose name the certificates are to be
issued as the record holder thereof for all purposes on the next succeeding day
on which such stock transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the
Conversion Price in effect on the applicable Conversion Date. Upon conversion of this Note or any
portion hereof, the accrued and unpaid interest on this Note (or portion hereof)
to (but excluding) the applicable Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid to
the Holder of this Note through receipt of such number of shares of Common Stock
issued upon conversion of this Note or portion hereof as shall have an aggregate
Current Fair Market Value on the Trading Day immediately preceding such
Conversion Date equal to the amount of such accrued and unpaid
interest.
(d) A Conversion Notice shall be deemed for
all purposes to be in proper form absent timely notice from the Company to the
Holder of manifest error therein. The Company shall notify the Holder of any
claim by the Company of manifest error in a Conversion Notice within two Trading
Days after the Holder gives such Conversion Notice (which notice from the
Company shall specify all defects in the Conversion Notice) and no such claim of
error shall limit or delay performance of the Company's obligation to issue upon
such conversion the number of shares of Common Stock which are not in dispute.
Time shall be of the essence in the giving of any such notice by the Company.
Any Conversion Notice containing any such defect shall nonetheless be effective
on the date given if the Holder promptly undertakes to correct all such defects.
The Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect
of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock
or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other than
that of the Holder, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver
any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or
persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the full
amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Company that such tax has been paid. The Holder shall be responsible for the
amount of any withholding tax payable in connection with any conversion of this
Note.
25
(e) (1) If the Holder shall have given a
Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms of this Note, the Company's
obligation to issue and deliver the shares of Common Stock upon such conversion
shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by
the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any
provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action
to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other
obligation of the Company to the Holder, or any setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the
Holder or any other person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or
alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and irrespective of
any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the
Company to the Holder in connection with such conversion; provided, however,
that nothing herein shall
limit or prejudice the right of the Company to pursue any such claim in any
other manner permitted by applicable law. The occurrence of an event which
requires an adjustment of the Conversion Price as contemplated by Section 6.3
shall in no way restrict or delay the right of the Holder to receive
certificates for Common Stock upon conversion of this Note and the Company shall
use its best efforts to implement such adjustment on terms reasonably acceptable
to the Holder within two Trading Days of such occurrence.
(2) If in any case the Company shall fail
to issue and deliver the shares of Common Stock to the Holder in connection with
a particular conversion of this Note within five Trading Days after the Holder
gives the Conversion Notice for such conversion, in addition to any other
liabilities the Company may have hereunder and under applicable law (A) the
Company shall pay or reimburse the Holder on demand for all out-of-pocket
expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of legal
counsel, incurred by the Holder as a result of such failure, (B) if as a result
of such failure the Holder shall suffer any direct damages or liabilities from
such failure (including, without limitation, margin interest and the cost of
purchasing securities to cover a sale (whether by the Holder or the Holder's
securities broker) or borrowing of shares of Common Stock by the Holder for
purposes of settling any trade involving a sale of shares of Common Stock made
by the Holder during the period beginning on the Issuance Date and ending on the
date the Company delivers or causes to be delivered to the Holder such shares of
Common Stock), then the Company shall upon demand of the Holder pay to the
Holder an amount equal to the actual direct, out-of-pocket damages and
liabilities suffered by the Holder by reason thereof which the Holder documents
to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company, and (C) the Holder may by written
notice (which may be given by mail, courier, personal service or telephone line
facsimile transmission), given at any time prior to delivery to the Holder of
the shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with such exercise of the
Holder's conversion right, rescind such exercise and the Conversion Notice
relating thereto, in which case the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to
convert that portion of this Note as to which such exercise is so rescinded and
to exercise its other rights and remedies with respect to such failure by the
Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing the Company shall not be liable to the
Holder under clause (B) of the immediately preceding sentence to the extent the
failure of the Company to deliver or to cause to be delivered such shares of
Common Stock results from fire, flood, storm, earthquake, shipwreck, strike,
war, acts of terrorism, crash involving facilities of a common carrier, acts of
God, or any similar event outside the control of the Company (it being
understood that the action or failure to act of the Transfer Agent shall not be
deemed an event outside the control of the Company except to the extent
resulting from fire, flood, storm, earthquake, shipwreck, strike, war, acts of
terrorism, crash involving facilities of a common carrier, acts of God, or any
similar event outside the control of the Transfer Agent or the bankruptcy,
liquidation or reorganization of the Transfer Agent under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law). In the case of the Company’s failure to issue
and deliver or cause to be delivered the shares of Common Stock to the Holder
within three Trading Days of a particular conversion of the Note, the amount
payable by the Company pursuant to clause (B) of this Section 6.2(e)(2) with
respect to such conversion shall be reduced by the amount of payments previously
paid by the Company to the Holder pursuant to Section 8(a)(4) of the Purchase
Agreement with respect to such conversion. The Holder shall notify the Company
in writing (or by telephone conversation, confirmed in writing) as promptly as
practicable following the third Trading Day after the Holder gives a Conversion
Notice if the Holder becomes aware that such shares of Common Stock so issuable
have not been received as provided herein, but any failure so to give such
notice shall not affect the Holder's rights under this Note or otherwise. If the
Holder shall have exercised the conversion right in any particular instance and
either (1) the Company shall notify the Holder on or after the date the Holder
gives such Conversion Notice that the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion might not be delivered within three Trading Days after the date the
Holder gives such Conversion Notice or (2) the Holder learns after the date
which is three Trading Days after the date the Holder gives such Conversion
Notice that the Holder has not received such shares of Common Stock, then,
without releasing the Company of its obligations with respect thereto, from and
after the Trading Day next succeeding the earlier of the events described in the
preceding clauses (1) and (2) of this sentence the Holder shall make reasonable
efforts not to sell shares of Common Stock in anticipation of receipt of such
shares of Common Stock in a manner which is likely to increase materially the
liability of the Company under clause (B) of the first sentence of this Section
6.2(e)(2).
26
(f) No fractional shares of Common Stock
shall be issued upon conversion of this Note but, in lieu of any fraction of a
share of Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable in respect of such
conversion, the Company may round the number of shares of Common Stock issued on
such conversion up to the next highest whole share or may pay lawful money of
the United States of America for such fractional share, based on a value of one
share of Common Stock being equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock on the
applicable Conversion Date.
6.3 Adjustment
of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted
from time to time by the Company as follows:
(a) Adjustments
for Certain Dividends and Distributions in Common Stock. In case the Company shall on or after
the Issuance Date pay a dividend or make a distribution to all holders of the
outstanding Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in
effect at the opening of business on the date following the date fixed for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other
distribution shall be reduced by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
at the close of business on the Record Date fixed for such determination and the
denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of
shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such reduction to
become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following
the Record Date. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this
Section 6.3(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall
again be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such
dividend or distribution had not been declared.
27
(b) Weighted
Adjustments for Certain Issuances of Rights or Warrants. In case the Company shall on or after
the Issuance Date issue rights or warrants (other than any rights or warrants
referred to in Section 6.3(d)) to all holders of its outstanding shares of
Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after the date
fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or
warrants) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per
share less than the Current Market Price on the Record Date fixed for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, the
Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price
determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of
business on the date after such Record Date by a fraction of which the numerator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of
business on the Record Date plus the number of shares which the aggregate
offering price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at such
Current Market Price, and the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding on the close of business on the Record Date plus the
total number of additional shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or
purchase. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening
of business on the day following the Record Date fixed for determination of
stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that
shares of Common Stock are not delivered pursuant to such rights or warrants,
upon the expiration or termination of such rights or warrants, the Conversion
Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect
had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made
on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually
delivered. In the event that such rights or warrants are not so issued, the
Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would
then be in effect if such date fixed for the determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such rights or warrants had not been fixed. In determining
whether any rights or warrants entitle the holder to subscribe for or purchase
shares of Common Stock at less than such Current Market Price, and in
determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there
shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights or
warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined
by the Board of Directors.
(c) Adjustments
for Certain Subdivisions of the Common Stock. In case the outstanding shares of
Common Stock shall on or after the Issuance Date be subdivided into a greater
number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening
of business on the earlier of the day following the day upon which such
subdivision becomes effective and the day on which “ex-” trading of the Common
Stock begins with respect to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced,
and conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined
into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect
at the opening of business on the earlier of the day following the day upon
which such combination becomes effective and the day on which “ex-” trading of
the Common Stock with respect to such combination begins shall be
proportionately increased, such reduction or increase, as the case may be, to
become effective immediately after the opening of business on the earlier of the
day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes
effective and the day on which “ex-” trading of the Common Stock begins with
respect to such subdivision or combination.
28
(d) Adjustments
for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In case the Company shall on or after
the Issuance Date, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its
Common Stock shares of any class of capital stock of the Company (other than any
dividends or distributions to which Section 6.3(a) applies) or evidences of its
indebtedness, cash or other assets (including securities, but excluding any
rights or warrants referred to in Section 6.3(b) and dividends and distributions
paid exclusively in cash and excluding any capital stock, evidences of
indebtedness, cash or assets distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which
Section 6.6 applies) (the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 6.3(d) called
the “Securities”)), then, in each such case, subject to the second paragraph of
this Section 6.3(d), the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same
shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in
effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date with
respect to such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the
Current Market Price on such date less the fair market value (as determined by
the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in
a Board Resolution) on such date of the portion of the Securities so distributed
applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such
Current Market Price, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to
the opening of business on the day following the Record Date; provided, however,
that in the event the then
fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Securities so
distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than
the Current Market Price on the Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing
adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that the Holder shall have the
right to receive upon conversion of this Note (or any portion hereof) the amount
of Securities such holder would have received had such holder converted this
Note (or portion hereof) immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event
that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price
shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect
if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Board of
Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of
this Section 6.3(d) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for
any Securities comprising all or part of such distribution, it must in doing so
consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the
Current Market Price, to the extent possible.
Rights or
warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the
holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company's capital
stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or
warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger
Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (ii)
are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of
Common Stock, shall not be deemed to have been distributed for purposes of this
Section 6.3 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 6.3
will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event. If any
such rights or warrants, including any such existing rights or warrants
distributed prior to the Issuance Date, are subject to Trigger Events, upon the
satisfaction of each of which such rights or warrants shall become exercisable
to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets,
then the occurrence of each such Trigger Event shall be deemed to be such date
of issuance and record date with respect to new rights or warrants (and a
termination or expiration of the existing rights or warrants without exercise by
the holder thereof) (so that, by way of illustration and not limitation, the
dates of issuance of any such rights shall be deemed to be the dates on which
such rights become exercisable to purchase capital stock of the Company, and not
the date on which such rights may be issued, or may become evidenced by separate
certificates, if such rights are not then so exercisable). In addition, in the
event of any distribution of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event with
respect thereto, that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution
amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 6.3
was made (1) in the case of any such rights or warrants which shall all have
been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the
Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to
give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though
it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase
price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such
rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants),
made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or
repurchase, and (2) in the case of such rights or warrants which shall have
expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the
Conversion Price shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been
issued.
29
For
purposes of this Section 6.3(d) and Sections 6.3(a) and (b), any dividend or
distribution to which this Section 6.3(d) is applicable that also includes
shares of Common Stock, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
shares of Common Stock to which Section 6.3(b) applies (or both), shall be
deemed instead to be (1) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of
indebtedness, assets, shares of capital stock, rights or warrants other than
such shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants to which Section 6.3(b)
applies (and any Conversion Price reduction required by this Section 6.3(d) with
respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately
followed by (2) a dividend or distribution of such shares of Common Stock or
such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Price reduction required by
Sections 6.3(a) and (b) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then
be made), except (A) the Record Date of such dividend or distribution shall be
substituted as “the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such dividend or other distribution”, “Record Date fixed for such
determination” and “Record Date” within the meaning of Section 6.3(a) and as
“the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
rights or warrants”, “the Record Date fixed for the determination of the
stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants” and “such Record Date”
within the meaning of Section 6.3(b) and (B) any shares of Common Stock included
in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed “outstanding at the close
of business on the Record Date fixed for such determination” within the meaning
of Section 6.3(a).
(e) Adjustments
for Certain Cash Dividends. In case the Company shall on or after
the Issuance Date, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its
Common Stock cash (excluding any cash that is distributed upon a merger or
consolidation to which Section 6.5 applies or as part of a distribution referred
to in Section 6.3(d)) in an aggregate amount that, combined with (1) the
aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of its Common
Stock made exclusively in cash within the 12 months preceding the date of
payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to
this Section 6.3(e) has been made, and (2) the aggregate of any cash plus the
fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination
shall be conclusive and set forth in a Board Resolution) of consideration
payable in respect of any Tender Offer by the Company or any Subsidiary for all
or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the 12 months preceding the
date of payment of such distribution, exceeds 1% of the product of (x) the
Current Market Price on the Record Date with respect to such distribution
times
(y) the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case,
immediately after the close of business on such date, unless the Company elects
to reserve such cash for distribution to the Holder upon the conversion of this
Note (and shall have made adequate provision) so that the Holder will receive
upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock to which the
Holder is entitled, the amount of cash which the Holder would have received if
the Holder had, immediately prior to the Record Date for such distribution of
cash, converted this Note into Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be
reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such
Record Date by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to the
Current Market Price on the Record Date less an amount equal to the quotient of
(x) the excess of such combined amount over such 1% and (y) the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date and (ii) the denominator of which
shall be equal to the Current Market Price on the Record Date; provided, however,
that in the event the
portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is
equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Common Stock on the
Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be
made so that the Holder shall have the right to receive upon conversion of this
Note (or any portion hereof) the amount of cash the Holder would have received
had the Holder converted this Note (or portion hereof) immediately prior to such
Record Date. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or
made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price
which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been
declared.
30
(f) Adjustments
for Certain Issuances of Newly Issued Shares. (1) In case at any time on or after
the Issuance Date the Company issues shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents (collectively, the “Newly Issued Shares”) at a price per share at
which the Company sells such shares of Common Stock or the price per share at
which the holders of such Common Stock Equivalents are entitled to acquire
shares of Common Stock upon conversion or exercise thereof which is less than
the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issuance, then following such
issuance the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the lowest price per share at
which such shares of Common Stock are issued or at which such Common Stock
Equivalents may be exercised, if the same is lower than the Conversion Price in
effect immediately prior to such issuance.
(2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
adjustment shall be made under this Section 6.3(f) by reason
of:
(A) the issuance by the Company of shares
of Common Stock pro rata to all holders of the Common Stock so long as (i) any
adjustment required by Section 6.3(a) is made and (ii) the Company shall have
given notice thereof to the Holder pursuant to Section 6.6;
(B) the issuance by the Company of the
Notes, the Other Notes, the Warrants or the Other Warrants or the issuance by
the Company of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note or the Other
Notes or upon exercise of the Warrants or the Other Warrants in accordance with
the terms hereof and thereof;
(C) the issuance by the Company of shares
of Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion of the Notes or Other Notes or
shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock in
accordance with the terms thereof;
(D) the issuance by the Company of Newly
Issued Shares upon grant or exercise of options for employees, directors and
consultants under the 2003 Stock Option Plan, 2004 Non-Employee Stock
Compensation Plan and the 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan or any other stock
compensation plan that has been duly adopted by the Board of Directors and duly
approved by the Company’s stockholders;
(E) the issuance by the Company of Newly
Issued Shares upon conversion or exercise of Common Stock Equivalents that are
outstanding on the Issuance Date in accordance with the sum of such Common Stock
Equivalents in effect on the Issuance Date; or
31
(F) the issuance by the Company of Newly
Issued Shares in connection with a strategic alliance, collaboration, joint
venture, partnership or similar arrangement of the Company with another Person
which strategic alliance, collaboration, joint venture, partnership or similar
arrangement relates to the Company’s business as conducted immediately prior
thereto and which Person is engaged in a business similar or related to the
business of the Company so long as (x) the price per Newly Issued Share is not
less than 85 percent of the Current Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the
date of issuance of such Newly Issued Shares and (y) the consideration other
than cash which the Company receives in connection with such strategic alliance,
collaboration, joint venture, partnership or similar arrangement has a value, as
determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable judgment and set forth in
a Board Resolution, at least equal to the amount by which (i) the product of the
Newly Issued Shares so issued times the Current Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock on the date such Newly issued Shares are issued exceeds (ii) the
aggregate cash consideration received by the Company for such Newly Issued
Shares at the time of issuance thereof and (z) such issuance has been duly
approved by the Board of Directors as set forth in a Board
Resolution.
(g) Adjustment
in Connection Sales by a Designated Person. (1) If at any time on or after the
Issuance Date any Designated Person, directly or indirectly, sells, transfers or
disposes of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than a
Permitted Designated Person Sale and on the Measurement Date for such sale,
transfer or disposition the Conversion Price in effect on such Measurement Date
is greater than the Computed Market Price on such Measurement Date, then,
subject to the next succeeding sentence, the Conversion Price shall be reduced
to such Computed Market Price, such adjustment to become effective immediately
after the opening of business on the day following the Measurement
Date.
(2) The Company shall enter into an
agreement with each Designated Person, on or before the date that is 30 days
after the Issuance Date, pursuant to which each Designated Person shall agree
that upon the written request of the Company or any Holder, the Designated
Person shall provide the Company and such Holder, a written statement setting
forth the dates, if any, upon which the Designated Person has sold, transferred
or disposed of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents during
such period as shall be reasonably requested by the Company or such Holder to
determine whether or not a sale, transfer or disposition that requires an
adjustment pursuant to Section 6.3(g)(1) has occurred. The Company shall
instruct the Transfer Agent to inform the Company immediately upon the sale,
transfer or disposition of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents by any Designated Person. The Company shall inform the Holder
immediately by phone and electronic transmission upon becoming aware of any
sale, transfer or disposition of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents by any Designated Person and will follow up with formal written
notice to the Holder pursuant to Section 7.2.
(h) Additional
Reductions in Conversion Price. The Company may make such reductions
in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by Sections 6.3(a), (b),
(c), (d), (e), (f) and (g), as the Board of Directors considers to be advisable
to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to
purchase Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or
rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax
purposes.
(i) De
Minimus Adjustments. No
adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment
would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided, however,
that any adjustments which
by reason of this Section 6.3(i) are not required to be made shall be carried
forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations
under this Article VI shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the
nearest cent or to the nearest one hundredth of a share, as the case may
be.
32
No
adjustment need be made for a change in the par value of the Common Stock or
from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value.
(j) Company
Notice of Adjustments.
Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall
promptly, but in no event later than five days thereafter, give a notice to the
Holder setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting
forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, but which
statement shall not include any information which would be material non-public
information for purposes of the 1934 Act. Failure to deliver such notice shall
not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.
(k) Effectiveness
of Certain Adjustments. In
any case in which this Section 6.3 provides that an adjustment shall become
effective immediately after a Record Date for an event, the Company may defer
until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Holder in connection with
any conversion of this Note after such Record Date and before the occurrence of
such event the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion
by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Common
Stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and
(ii) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant
to Section 6.2(f).
(l) Outstanding
Shares. For purposes of
this Section 6.3, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding
shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include
shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of
shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any
distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company other
than dividends or distributions payable only in shares of Common
Stock.
6.4 Effect
of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. (a) If any of the following events
occur, namely:
(i) any reclassification or change of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (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 combination),
(ii) any consolidation, merger or
combination of the Company with another corporation as a result of which holders
of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or other property
or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock,
or
(iii) any sale or conveyance of the
properties and assets of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety to any
other corporation as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled
to receive stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash) with
respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock,
then the
Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute
with the Holder a written agreement providing that:
(w) this Note shall be convertible into the
kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property or assets
(including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation,
merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance by the holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note in full
(assuming, for such purposes, a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common
Stock available to convert this Note) immediately prior to such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
combination, sale or conveyance assuming such holder of Common Stock did not
exercise such holder's rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of
securities, cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger,
statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance (provided that, if the kind or amount of
securities, cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger,
statutory exchange, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common
Stock in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised
(“non-electing share”), then for the purposes of this Section 6.4 the kind and
amount of securities, cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation,
merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance for each
non-electing share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per
share by a plurality of the non-electing shares),
33
(x) the Conversion Price of this Note
shall, upon such consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or
conveyance, thereafter be the lower of (1) the Conversion Price then in effect
and (2) the price paid or deemed to have been paid for one share of Common Stock
in such consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or
conveyance (subject to further adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent
as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this
Article),
(y) in the case of any such successor or
purchasing Person, upon such consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
combination, sale or conveyance such successor or purchasing Person shall be
jointly and severally liable with the Company for the performance of all of the
Company's obligations under this Note and the Note Purchase Agreement,
and
(z) if registration or qualification is
required under the 1933 Act or applicable state law for the public resale by the
Holder of such shares of stock and other securities so issuable upon conversion
of this Note, such registration or qualification shall be completed prior to
such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
combination, sale or conveyance.
Such
written agreement shall provide for adjustments in the Conversion Price which
shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided
for in this Article. If, in the case of any such reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance, the
stock or other securities and assets receivable thereupon by a holder of shares
of Common Stock includes shares of stock or other securities and assets of a
corporation other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may
be, in such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
combination, sale or conveyance, then such written agreement shall also be
executed by such other corporation and shall contain such additional provisions
to protect the interests of the Holder as the Board of Directors shall
reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including, to the
extent practicable, the provisions providing for the repurchase rights set forth
in Article V herein.
(b) The above provisions of this Section
shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations,
mergers, statutory exchanges, combinations, sales and
conveyances.
(c) If this Section 6.4 applies to any
event or occurrence, Section 6.3 shall not apply.
6.5 Reservation
of Shares; Shares to Be Fully Paid; Listing of Common Stock.
(a) The Company shall reserve and keep
available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock or shares of Common Stock held in treasury, solely for
issuance upon conversion of this Note, and in addition to the shares of Common
Stock required to be reserved by the terms of the Other Notes, Warrants and the
Other Warrants, sufficient shares to provide for the conversion of this Note
from time to time as this Note is converted.
(b) Before taking any action which would
cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the then par value, if
any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, the
Company will take all corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel,
be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue shares of
such Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price.
(c) The Company covenants that all shares
of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note will be fully paid and
non-assessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with

ten Trading Days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice
stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such
dividend, distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be

Ownership Percentage Limitation. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be
acquired at any time by the Holder upon conversion of the Note shall not exceed
a number that, when added to the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed
beneficially owned by such Holder (other than by virtue of the ownership of
securities or rights to acquire securities (including the Warrants) that have
limitations on the holder's right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to
the limitation set forth herein (the “Excluded Shares”)), together with all
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned at such time (other than by virtue of
the ownership of Excluded Shares) by Persons whose beneficial ownership of
Common Stock would be aggregated with the beneficial ownership by the Holder for
purposes of determining whether a group exists or for purposes of determining
the Holder’s beneficial ownership (the “Aggregation Parties”), in either such
case for purposes of Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Regulation 13D-G
thereunder (including, without limitation, as the same is made applicable to
Section 16 of the 1934 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder), would result
in beneficial ownership by the Holder or such group of more than 9.9% of the
shares of Common Stock for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the 1934
Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (as the same may be modified by a
particular Holder as provided herein, the “Restricted Ownership Percentage”).
The Holder shall have the right at any time and from time to time to reduce its
Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon notice to the Company in the
event and only to the extent that Section 16 of the 1934 Act or the rules
promulgated thereunder (or any successor statute or rules) is changed to reduce
the beneficial ownership percentage threshold thereunder to a percentage less
than 10% and (y) at any time and from time to time, to increase its
Restricted Ownership Percentage unless such Holder shall have, by written
instrument delivered to the Company, irrevocably waived its rights to so
increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage]. If at any time the limits in this
Section 6.7 make the Note inconvertible in whole or in part, the Company shall
not by reason thereof be relieved of its obligation to issue shares of Common
Stock at any time or from time to time thereafter upon conversion of the Note as
and when shares of Common Stock may be issued in compliance with such
restrictions.
(b) For purposes of this Section 6.7, in
determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock at any time the
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected
in (1) the Company's then most recent Form 10-Q, Form 10-K or other public
filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (2) a public announcement by the
Company that is later than any such filing referred to in the preceding clause
(1) or (3) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth
the number shares of Common Stock outstanding and knowledge the Holder may have
about the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversions or exercises
of this Note, the Other Notes, the Warrants, the Other Warrants or other Common
Stock Equivalents by any Person, including the Holder, which are not reflected
in the information referred to in the preceding clauses (1) through (3). Upon
the written request of any Holder, the Company shall within three Business Days
confirm in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall
be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of Common Stock
Equivalents, including the Notes and the Warrants, by the Holder or its
Affiliates, in each such case subsequent to, the date as of which such number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.

such conversion of this Note shall be the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the
sum of (1) the principal amount of the portion of this Note being converted plus

conversion, computed at the Applicable Rate, to the date of such conversion by

A Preferred Stock and to thereby be entitled to shares of Series A Preferred
Stock the Holder shall give a Preferred Share Conversion Notice (or such other
notice which is acceptable to the Company) to the Company stating therein the
principal amount of this Note to be converted. A Preferred Share Conversion
Notice may be given by telephone line facsimile transmission to the numbers set
forth on the form of Preferred Share Conversion Notice. to the Company The
Company shall, promptly thereafter, but in no event later than three Trading
Days issue and deliver to the Holder at the address specified by the Holder, a
certificate for the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to which the Holder shall
be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made
immediately prior to the close of business on the date the Company receives
notice of such conversion as provided above, and the Person entitled to receive
the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be
treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Series A
Preferred Stock as of such date. The Holder shall not be required to deliver the
original Note in order to effect a conversion hereunder. Execution and delivery
of the Preferred Share Conversion Notice shall have the same effect as
cancellation of the original Note and issuance of a new Note representing the
remaining outstanding principal amount. Upon surrender of this Note following
one or more partial conversions, the Company shall promptly deliver to the
Holder a new Note representing the remaining outstanding principal
amount.

executed by the Holder) to the Company, (y) making payment, in cash or by

will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder a new
Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder
(upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request,
providing in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the purchase of the

specified in writing to the Holder by the Company; provided, however,

form is given to the Company by telephone line facsimile transmission the Holder

provided

7
(b) Net
Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Section 2(a), if the Holder shall exercise this Warrant
(1) during the period beginning one year after the Issuance Date and at a time
when a Registration Statement covering the resale by the Holder of shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant is not
effective or is not available for use by the Holder or (2) an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, then in either such case in the preceding
clause (1) or (2) the Holder may elect to exercise this Warrant, in whole at any
time or in part from time to time, by receiving upon each such exercise a number
of shares of Common Stock as determined below, upon submission of the
subscription form annexed hereto (duly executed by the Holder) to the Company
(followed by surrender of this Warrant to the Company within three Trading Days
after such submission of a subscription form), in which event the Company shall
issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the

exercised
|
A
=
|
the
Current Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock calculated as of
the latest Trading Day immediately preceding the exercise of this
Warrant
|

Limitation.
(1) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be
acquired by the Holder upon exercise pursuant to the terms hereof at any time
shall not exceed a number that, when added to the total number of shares of
Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by the Holder (other than by virtue of
the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have
limitations on the Holder's right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to
the limitation set forth herein (the “Excluded Shares”), together with all
shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned at such time (other than by
virtue of the ownership of the Excluded Shares) by Persons whose beneficial
ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the beneficial ownership by
the Holder for purposes of determining whether a group exists or for purposes of
determining the Holder’s beneficial ownership (the “Aggregation Parties”), in
either such case for purposes of Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Regulation
13D-G thereunder (including, without limitation, as the same is made applicable
to Section 16 of the 1934 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder), would
result in beneficial ownership by the Holder or such group of more than 9.9% of
the shares of Common Stock for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the
1934 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (as the same may be modified by
the Holder as provided herein, the “Restricted Ownership Percentage”). The
Holder shall have the right (x) at any time and from time to time to reduce its
Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon notice to the Company in the
event and only to the extent that Section 16 of the 1934 Act or the rules
promulgated thereunder (or any successor statute or rules) is changed to reduce
the beneficial ownership percentage threshold thereunder to a percentage less
than 10% [FOR RAINBOW
GATE/STILLWATER /GINOLA WARRANTS ONLY: and (y) at any time and from time to
time, to increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage unless the Holder shall
have, by written instrument delivered to the Company, irrevocably waived its
rights to so increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage]. If at any time the limits in this
Section 2(c) make this Warrant unexercisable in whole or in part, the Company
shall not by reason thereof be relieved of its obligation to issue shares of
Common Stock at any time or from time to time thereafter but prior to the
Expiration Date upon exercise of this Warrant as and when shares of Common Stock
may be issued in compliance with such restrictions.
8
(2) For purposes of this Section 2(c), in
determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock at any time the
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected
in (1) the Company's then most recent Form 10-Q, Form 10-K or other public
filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (2) a public announcement by the
Company that is later than any such filing referred to in the preceding clause
(1) or (3) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth
the number shares of Common Stock outstanding and knowledge the Holder may have
about the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise of
Common Stock Equivalents by any Person, including the Holder, which are not
reflected in the preceding clauses (1) through (3). Upon the written request of
the Holder, the Company shall within three Business Days confirm in writing to
the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case,
the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after
giving effect to the conversion or exercise of Common Stock Equivalents,
including the Warrants, by the Holder or its Affiliates, in each such case
subsequent to, the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock was reported.
3. Delivery
of Stock Certificates, etc., on Exercise. (a) As soon as practicable after the
exercise of this Warrant and in any event within three Trading Days thereafter,
upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Warrant, the Company at its
expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue or stamp taxes)
will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as the
Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct,
a certificate or certificates for the number of fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which the Holder shall be
entitled on such exercise, in such denominations as may be requested by the
Holder, which certificate or certificates shall be free of restrictive and
trading legends (except to the extent permitted under Section 5(b) of the Note
Purchase Agreement), plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder
would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then
Current Fair Market Value of one full share of Common Stock, together with any
other stock or Other Securities or any property (including cash, where
applicable) to which the Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to
Section 2 or otherwise. In lieu of delivering physical
certificates for the shares of Common Stock or (Other Securities) issuable upon
any exercise of this Warrant, provided the Company's transfer agent is
participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities
Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder, the Company shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent electronically to
transmit such shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon
conversion to the Holder (or its designee), by crediting the account of the
Holder’s (or such designee’s) broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission system (provided that the same time periods herein as for stock
certificates shall apply). The Company shall pay any taxes and other
governmental charges that may be imposed under the laws of the United States of
America or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein in
respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
or payment of cash upon exercise of this Warrant (other than income taxes
imposed on the 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 (or Other Securities)
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or payment of cash to any Person other
than the Holder, and in case of such transfer or payment the Company shall not
be required to deliver any certificate for shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) upon such exercise or pay any cash until such tax or charge has been
paid or it has been established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that no
such tax or charge is due.
9
(b) If in any case the Company shall fail
to issue and deliver or cause to be delivered the shares of Common Stock to the
Holder within five Trading Days of a particular exercise of this Warrant, in
addition to any other liabilities the Company may have hereunder, under the Note
Purchase Agreement and under applicable law, (A) the Company shall pay or
reimburse the Holder on demand for all out-of-pocket expenses, including,
without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel, incurred by
the Holder as a result of such failure; (B) if as a result of such failure the
Holder shall suffer any direct damages or liabilities from such failure
(including, without limitation, margin interest and the cost of purchasing
securities to cover a sale (whether by the Holder or the Holder's securities
broker) or borrowing of shares of Common Stock by the Holder for purposes of
settling any trade involving a sale of shares of Common Stock made by the Holder
during the period beginning on the Issuance Date and ending on the date the
Company delivers or causes to be delivered to the Holder such shares of Common
Stock), then, in addition to any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3(a), the
Company shall upon demand of the Holder pay to the Holder an amount equal to the
actual, direct, demonstrable out-of-pocket damages and liabilities suffered by
the Holder by reason thereof which the Holder documents, and (C) the Holder may
by written notice (which may be given by mail, courier, personal service or
telephone line facsimile transmission) or oral notice (promptly confirmed in
writing), given at any time prior to delivery to the Holder of the shares of
Common Stock issuable in connection with such exercise of the Holder's right,
rescind such exercise and the subscription form relating thereto, in which case
the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to exercise that portion of this Warrant
as to which such exercise is so rescinded and to exercise its other rights and
remedies with respect to such failure by the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing the Company shall not be liable to the Holder under clauses (A) or (B)
of the immediately preceding sentence to the extent the failure of the Company
to deliver or to cause to be delivered such shares of Common Stock results from
fire, flood, storm, earthquake, shipwreck, strike, war, acts of terrorism, crash
involving facilities of a common carrier, acts of God, or any similar event
outside the control of the Company (it being understood that the action or
failure to act of the Company's Transfer Agent shall not be deemed an event
outside the control of the Company except to the extent resulting from fire,
flood, storm, earthquake, shipwreck, strike, war, acts of terrorism, crash
involving facilities of a common carrier, acts of God, or any similar event
outside the control of such Transfer Agent or the bankruptcy, liquidation or
reorganization of such Transfer Agent under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law). The Holder shall notify the Company in writing (or by telephone
conversation, confirmed in writing) as promptly as practicable following the
third Trading Day after the Holder exercises this Warrant if the Holder becomes
aware that such shares of Common Stock so issuable have not been received as
provided herein, but any failure so to give such notice shall not affect the
Holder's rights under this Warrant or otherwise. In the case of the Company’s
failure to issue and deliver or cause to be delivered the shares of Common Stock
to the Holder within five Trading Days of a particular exercise of this Warrant,
the amount payable by the Company pursuant to clause (B) of this Section 3(b)
with respect to such exercise shall be reduced by the amount of payments
previously paid by the Company to the Holder pursuant to Section 8(a)(4) of the
Note Purchase Agreement with respect to such exercise.
4. Adjustment
for Dividends in Other Stock, Property, etc.; Reclassification, etc. In case at any time or from time to
time on or after the Issuance Date, all holders of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) shall have received, or (on or after the record date fixed for the
determination of stockholders eligible to receive) shall have become entitled to
receive, without payment therefor,
10
(a) other or additional stock, rights,
warrants or other securities or property (other than cash) by way of dividend,
or
(b) any cash (excluding cash dividends
payable solely out of earnings or earned surplus of the Company),
or
(c) other or additional stock, rights,
warrants or other securities or property (including cash) by way of spin-off,
split-up, reclassification, recapitalization, combination of shares or similar
corporate rearrangement, other than (i) additional shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) issued as a stock dividend or in a stock-split (adjustments in
respect of which are provided for in Section 6) and (ii) rights or warrants to
subscribe for Common Stock at less than the Current Fair Market Value
(adjustments in respect of which are provided in Section 7), then and in each
such case the Holder, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2, shall be
entitled to receive the amount of stock, rights, warrants and Other Securities
and property (including cash in the cases referred to in subdivisions (b) and
(c) of this Section 4) which the Holder would hold on the date of such exercise
if on the date of such action specified in the preceding clauses (a) through (c)
(or the record date therefor) the Holder had been the holder of record of the
number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face of this Warrant and had
thereafter, during the period from the date thereof to and including the date of
such exercise, retained such shares and all such other or additional stock,
rights, warrants and Other Securities and property (including cash in the case
referred to in subdivisions (b) and (c) of this Section 4) receivable by the
Holder as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called
for during such period by Section 5.
11
5. Exercise
upon a Reorganization Event. In case of any Reorganization Event
the Company shall, as a condition precedent to the consummation of the
transactions constituting, or announced as, such Reorganization Event, cause
effective provisions to be made so that the Holder shall have the right
thereafter, by exercising this Warrant (in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of
the Company and Other Securities or property purchasable and receivable upon
exercise of the rights represented hereby immediately prior to such
Reorganization Event) to purchase the kind and amount of shares of stock and
Other Securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such
Reorganization Event by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock that
might have been received upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
Reorganization Event. Any such provision shall include provisions for
adjustments in respect of such shares of stock and Other Securities and property
that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 5 shall apply to
successive Reorganization Events.
6. Adjustment
for Certain Extraordinary Events. If on or after the Issuance Date the
Company shall (i) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify its
outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (iii) combine its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then, in each such
event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such
event, be adjusted by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior
to such event by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be
the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be
readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or
events described herein in this Section 6. The Holder shall thereafter, on the
exercise hereof as provided in Section 2, be entitled to receive that number of
shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common
Stock which would be issuable on such exercise immediately prior to such
issuance, subdivision or combination, as the case may be, by a fraction of which
(i) the numerator is the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such
issuance and (ii) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of
such exercise.
7. Issuance
of Rights or Warrants to Common Stockholders at less than Current Fair Market
Value. If the Company
shall on or after the Issuance Date issue rights or warrants to all holders of
its outstanding shares of Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or
purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Current Fair
Market Value on the record date fixed for the determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such rights or warrants, then
12
(a) the Purchase Price shall be adjusted so
that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Purchase Price
in effect at the opening of business on the day after such record date by a
fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at the close of business on such record date plus the number of
shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so
offered would purchase at such Current Fair Market Value, and the denominator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the close of
business on such record date plus the total number of additional shares of
Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase; and
(b) the number of shares of Common Stock
which the Holder may thereafter purchase upon exercise of this Warrant at the
opening of business on the day after such record date shall be increased to a
number equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Purchase
Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment in the Purchase Price
pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 7 by (y) the Purchase Price in effect
immediately after such adjustment in the Purchase Price pursuant to clause (a)
of this Section 7.
Such
adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on
the day following the record date fixed for determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent that shares of Common
Stock are not delivered pursuant to such rights or warrants, upon the expiration
or termination of such rights or warrants, the Purchase Price shall be
readjusted to the Purchase Price which would then be in effect had the
adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the
basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually
delivered and the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant may
thereafter be exercised shall be readjusted (subject to proportionate adjustment
for any intervening exercises of this Warrant) to the number which would then be
in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants
been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock
actually delivered. In the event that such rights or warrants are not so issued,
the Purchase Price shall again be adjusted to be the Purchase Price which would
then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed and the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant may thereafter be exercised shall
again be adjusted (subject to proportionate adjustment for any intervening
exercises of this Warrant) to be the number which would then be in effect if
such record date had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or
warrants entitle the Holder to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock
at less than such Current Fair Market Value, and in determining the aggregate
offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account
any consideration received for such rights or warrants, the value of such
consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of
Directors.
8. Adjustments
for Certain Issuances of Newly Issued Shares.
(a) In case at any time on or after the
Issuance Date the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents (collectively, the “Newly Issued Shares”) at a price below the
Purchase Price in effect at the time of such issuance, then following such
issuance of Newly Issued Shares the Purchase Price shall be reduced to the lower
of (x) 138% of the lowest price per share of Common Stock reflected in the price
at which such Newly Issued Shares are issued and (y) the exercise price of any
warrants to purchase Common Stock issued in connection with such transaction, in
either such case, if the same is lower than the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such issuance.
13
(b) If the Purchase Price is reduced in
connection with the issuance of Newly Issued Shares as provided in Section 8(a),
then the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant may thereafter
be exercised shall be increased at the time of such reduction in the Purchase
Price to a number equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance of Newly Issued
Shares by (y) the Purchase Price in effect
immediately after such issuance of Newly Issued Shares after such reduction in
the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 8(a).
(c) If the Newly Issued Shares are Common
Stock Equivalents, then the price per share of Common Stock at which the Newly
Issued Shares shall be deemed issued shall be the price per share of Common
Stock at which the Newly Issued Shares are convertible into, exchangeable for,
or otherwise entitle the stockholder to acquire, Common
Stock.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
adjustment shall be made under this Section 8 by reason of:
(i) the issuance by the Company of shares
of Common Stock pro rata to all holders of the Common Stock so long as (i) any
adjustment required by Section 6 is made and (ii) the Company shall have given
notice thereof to the Holder pursuant to Section 15;
(ii) the issuance by the Company of the
Notes or the Other Warrants or shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the
Notes or upon exercise of this Warrant or the Other Warrants in accordance with
the terms hereof and thereof;
(iii) the issuance by the Company of shares
of Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion of the Notes or Common Stock upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms
thereof;
(iv) the issuance by the Company of Newly
Issued Shares upon grant or exercise of options for employees, directors and
consultants under the 2003 Stock Option Plan, 2004 Non-Employee Stock
Compensation Plan and the 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan or any other stock
compensation plan that has been duly adopted by the Board of Directors and duly
approved by the Company’s stockholders;
(v) the issuance by the Company of Newly
Issued Shares upon conversion of Common Stock Equivalents that are outstanding
on the Issuance Date in accordance with the terms of such Common Stock
Equivalents in effect on the Issuance Date;
(vi) the issuance by the Company for cash of
Newly Issued Shares in connection with a strategic alliance, collaboration,
joint venture, partnership or similar arrangement of the Company with another
Person which strategic alliance, collaboration, joint venture, partnership or
similar arrangement relates to the Company’s business as conducted immediately
prior thereto and which Person is engaged in a business similar or related to
the business of the Company so long as (x) the price per Newly Issued Share is
not less than 85 percent of the Current Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on
the date of issuance of such Newly Issued Shares and (y) the consideration other
than cash which the Company receives in connection with such strategic alliance,
collaboration, joint venture, partnership or similar arrangement has a value, as
determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable judgment, at least equal
to the amount by which (i) the product of the Newly Issued Shares so issued
times the Current Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock on the date such Newly Issued Shares are issued exceeds (ii) the
aggregate cash consideration received by the Company for such Newly Issued
Shares at the time of issuance thereof and (z) such issuance has been duly
approved by the Board of Directors.
14
9. Adjustment
in Connection with Sales by a Designated Person. So long as any Note is outstanding, if
at any time on or after the Issuance Date any Designated Person, directly or
indirectly, sells, transfers or disposes of shares of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents other than a Permitted Designated Person Sale and on the
Measurement Date for such sale, transfer or disposition the Purchase Price in
effect on such Measurement Date is greater than the Computed Market Price on
such Measurement Date, then, subject to the next succeeding sentence, the
Purchase Price shall be reduced to such Computed Market Price, such adjustment
to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day
following the Measurement Date. The Company shall inform the Holder immediately
by phone and electronic transmission upon becoming aware of any sale, transfer
or disposition of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents by any
Designated Person and will follow up with formal written notice to the Holder
pursuant to Section 24.
10. Effect
of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
|
(a) If any of the following events
occur, namely:
|
(i) any reclassification or change of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (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 combination),
(ii) any consolidation, merger statutory
exchange or combination of the Company with another corporation as a result of
which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or
other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for
such Common Stock, or
(iii) any sale or conveyance of the
properties and assets of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety to any
other Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to
receive stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash) with
respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, then the Company or the
successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the
Holder a written agreement providing that:
15
(x) this Warrant shall thereafter entitle
the Holder to purchase the kind and amount of shares of stock and Other
Securities or property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
combination, sale or conveyance by the holder of a number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (assuming, for such purposes, a
sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock available to exercise
this Warrant) immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation,
merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance assuming such holder
of Common Stock did not exercise such holder's rights of election, if any, as to
the kind or amount of securities, cash or other property receivable upon such
consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance
(provided that, if the kind or amount of
securities, cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger,
statutory exchange, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common
Stock in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised
(“non-electing share”), then for the purposes of this Section 10 the kind and
amount of securities, cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation,
merger, statutory exchange, sale or conveyance for each non-electing share shall
be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of
the non-electing shares),
(y) in the case of any such successor or
purchasing Person, upon such consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
combination, sale or conveyance such successor or purchasing Person shall be
jointly and severally liable with the Company for the performance of all of the
Company's obligations under this Warrant and the Note Purchase Agreement
and
(z) if registration or qualification is
required under the 1933 Act or applicable state law for the public resale by the
Holder of such shares of stock and Other Securities so issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant, such registration or qualification shall be completed prior to
such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
combination or sale.
Such
written agreement shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this
Warrant. If, in the case of any such reclassification, change, consolidation,
merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance, the stock or other
securities or other property or assets receivable thereupon by a holder of
shares of Common Stock includes shares of stock, other securities, other
property or assets of a Person other than the Company or any such successor or
purchasing Person, as the case may be, in such reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance, then
such written agreement shall also be executed by such other Person and shall
contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holder as the
Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the
foregoing.
(b) The above provisions of this Section 10
shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations,
mergers, combinations, sales and conveyances.
16
(c) If this Section 10 applies to any event
or occurrence, Section 5 shall not apply.
11. Tax
Adjustments. The Company may make such reductions in
the Purchase Price, in addition to those required by Sections 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and
9 as the Board of Directors considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any
income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock
resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire
stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax
purposes.
12. Minimum
Adjustment. (a) No
adjustment in the Purchase Price (and no related adjustment in the number of
shares of Common Stock which may thereafter be purchased upon exercise of this
Warrant) shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or
decrease of at least 1% in the Purchase Price; provided, however,
that any adjustments which
by reason of this Section 12 are not required to be made shall be carried
forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All such
calculations under this Warrant shall be made by the Company and shall be made
to the nearest cent or to the nearest one hundredth of a share, as the case may
be.
(b) No adjustment need be made for a change
in the par value of the Common Stock or from par value to no par value or from
no par value to par value.
13. Notice
of Adjustments. Whenever
the Purchase Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly,
but in no event later than five Trading Days thereafter, give a notice to the
Holder setting forth the Purchase Price and number of shares of Common Stock
which may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant after such adjustment and
setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment but which
such statement shall not include any information which would be material
non-public information for purposes of the 1934 Act. Failure to deliver such
notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such
adjustment.
14. Further
Assurances. The Company
will take all action that may be necessary or appropriate in order that the
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
stock, free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof,
on the exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant from time to time
outstanding.
15. Notice
to Holder Prior to Certain Actions. In case on or after the Issuance
Date:
(a) the Company shall declare a dividend
(or any other distribution) on its Common Stock (other than in cash out of
retained earnings); or
(b) the Company shall authorize the
granting to the holders of its Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase any share of any class or any other rights or warrants;
or
(c) the Board of Directors shall authorize
any reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision or
combination of its outstanding Common Stock, or a change in par value, or from
par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value), or any
consolidation or merger or other business combination transaction to which the
Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the Company is
required, or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company; or
17
(d) there shall be pending the voluntary or
involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the
Company;
the
Company shall give the Holder, as promptly as possible but in any event at least
ten Trading Days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice
stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such
dividend, distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be
taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled
to such dividend, distribution or rights are to be determined, or (y) the date
on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, other business
combination transaction, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up
is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is
expected that holders of Common Stock of record who shall be entitled to
exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, other business combination
transaction, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up shall be
determined. Such notice shall not include any information which would be
material non-public information for purposes of the 1934 Act. Failure to give
such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of
such dividend, distribution, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale,
transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. In the case of any such action
of which the Company gives such notice to the Holder or is required to give such
notice to the Holder, the Holder shall be entitled to give a subscription form
to exercise this Warrant in whole or in part that is contingent on the
completion of such action.
16. Reservation
of Stock, etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrants. The Company will at all times reserve
and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of capital stock,
solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient
number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to effect the full
exercise of this Warrant and the exercise, conversion or exchange of all other
Common Stock Equivalents from time to time outstanding (or Other Securities),
and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) shall not be sufficient to effect such exercise,
conversion or exchange, the Company shall take such action as may be necessary
to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) to such number as shall be sufficient for such
purposes.
17. Transfer
of Warrant. This Warrant
shall inure to the benefit of the successors to and assigns of the Holder. This
Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, are registrable at the
office or agency of the Company referred to below by the Holder in person or by

accompanied by an assignment form in the form attached to this Warrant, or other customary
form, duly executed by the transferring Holder.
18. Register

shall maintain, at the principal office of the Company (or such other office as
it may designate by notice to the Holder), a register in which the Company shall
record the name and address of the Person in whose name this Warrant has been
issued, as well as the name and address of each successor and prior owner of
such Warrant. The Company shall be entitled to treat the Person in whose name
this Warrant is so registered as the sole and absolute owner of this Warrant for
all purposes.
18
19. Exchange
of Warrant. This Warrant
is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the office or agency
of the Company referred to in Section 17, for one or more new Warrants of like
tenor representing in the aggregate the right to subscribe for and purchase the
number of shares of Common Stock which may be subscribed for and purchased
hereunder, each of such new Warrants to represent the right to subscribe for and
purchase such number of shares as shall be designated by the Holder at the time
of such surrender.
20. Replacement
of Warrant. On receipt by
the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (a) in the case
of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity from the Holder reasonably
satisfactory in form to the Company (and without the requirement to post any
bond or other security), or (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver to the Holder
a new Warrant of like tenor without charge to the Holder.
21. Warrant

written notice to the Holder, appoint the transfer agent and registrar for the
Common Stock as the Company's agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or
Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 2, and the
Company may, by written notice to the Holder, appoint an agent having an office
in the United States of America for the purpose of exchanging this Warrant
pursuant to Section 19, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 20, or
any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such exchange or replacement, as the
case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.
22. Remedies. The Company stipulates that the
remedies at law of the Holder in the event of any default or threatened default
by the Company in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this
Warrant are not and will not be adequate, and that such terms may be
specifically enforced (x) by a decree for the specific performance of any
agreement contained herein, including, without limitation, a decree for issuance
of the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant or (y) by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms
hereof or (z) otherwise.
23. No
Rights or Liabilities as a Stockholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the
Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company.
Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the
Holder the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder of
the Company on any matters or with respect to any rights whatsoever as a
stockholder of the Company. No dividends or interest shall be payable or accrued
in respect of this Warrant or the interest represented hereby or the Common
Stock (or Other Securities) purchasable hereunder until, and only to the extent
that, this Warrant shall have been exercised in accordance with its
terms.
19

has not been and is not being registered under the provisions of the 1933 Act or
any state securities laws and this Warrant may not be transferred prior to the

reference in such prospectus as of the date of such transfer. If such transfer
is intended to assign the rights and obligations of the Holder under Section
5,8,9 and 10 of the Note Purchase Agreement, such transfer shall otherwise be
made in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Note Purchase
Agreement.
26. Rule

or 15(d) under the 1934 Act, make available to the Holder and the holder of any
shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant which continue to be
Restricted Securities in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective
purchaser of this Warrant from the Holder, the information required pursuant to
Rule 144A(d)(4) under the 1933 Act upon the request of the Holder and it will
take such further action as the Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent
required from time to time to enable the Holder to sell this Warrant without

request of the Holder, the Company will deliver to the Holder a written
statement as to whether it has complied with such
requirements.

Note Purchase Agreement and the related definitions of capitalized terms used
therein and defined in the Note Purchase Agreement are by this reference
incorporated herein as if set forth in full at this place.

and any terms hereof may be changed, modified or amended only by an instrument
in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change,
modification or amendment is sought. [TO BE DELETED IN
[RAINBOW GATE][STILLWATER][GINOLA] WARRANTS ONLY: Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, no amendment or waiver shall increase or eliminate

Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Company's By-laws by holders of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at a meeting or by
written consent in lieu of such meeting.]
20
(b) Any term or condition of this Warrant
may be waived by the Holder or Company at any time if the waiving party is
entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver will be effective unless set
forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the party waiving
such term or condition. No waiver by any party of any term or condition of this
Warrant, in any one or more instances, will be deemed to be or construed as a
waiver of the same or any other term or condition of this Warrant on any future
occasion.
29. Miscellaneous. This Warrant shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of
New York. The headings, captions and footers in this Warrant are for purposes of
reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way

Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder, the Corporation shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent electronically to
transmit such shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder (or
its designee), by crediting the account of the Holder’s (or such designee’s)
broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (provided
that the same time periods herein as for stock certificates shall
apply).
16
(3) Each conversion of shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been effected on the
applicable Conversion Date, and the person in whose name any certificate or
certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion
shall be deemed to have become on such Conversion Date the holder of record of
the shares represented thereby; provided, however,
that if a Conversion Date
is a date on which the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall be closed
such conversion shall constitute the person in whose name the certificates are
to be issued as the record holder thereof for all purposes on the next
succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open, but such conversion
shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the applicable Conversion Date.
Upon conversion of any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the
accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock to (but excluding) the applicable Conversion Date shall be deemed to be
paid to the Holder through receipt of such number of shares of Common Stock
issued upon conversion of such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as
shall have an aggregate Current Fair Market Value on the Trading Day immediately
preceding such Conversion Date equal to the amount of such accrued and unpaid
dividends.
(4) A Conversion Notice shall be deemed for
all purposes to be in proper form absent timely notice from the Corporation to
the Holder of manifest error therein. The Corporation shall notify the Holder of
any claim by the Corporation of manifest error in a Conversion Notice within two
Trading Days after the Holder gives such Conversion Notice (which notice from
the Corporation shall specify all defects in the Conversion Notice) and no such
claim of error shall limit or delay performance of the Corporation 's obligation
to issue upon such conversion the number of shares of Common Stock which are not
in dispute. Time shall be of the essence in the giving of any such notice by the
Corporation. Any Conversion Notice containing any such defect shall nonetheless
be effective on the date given if the Holder promptly undertakes to correct all
such defects. The Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be
payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of
shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of shares
of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in a name other than that of such
Holder, and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver any such
shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons
requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of
any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation
that such tax has been paid. The converting Holder shall be responsible for the
amount of any withholding tax payable in connection with any conversion of
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
17
(5) (A) If a Holder shall have given a
Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of
Designations, the Corporation's obligation to issue and deliver the certificates
for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action
or inaction by such Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with
respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person
or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of
any other obligation of the Corporation to any Holder, or any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged
breach by any Holder or any other person of any obligation to the Corporation or
any violation or alleged violation of law by any Holder or any other person, and
irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such
obligation of the Corporation to such Holder in connection with such conversion;
provided, however,
that nothing herein shall
limit or prejudice the right of the Corporation to pursue any such claim in any
other manner permitted by applicable law. The occurrence of an event which
requires an adjustment of the Conversion Price as contemplated by Section 10(c)
shall in no way restrict or delay the right of any Holder to receive
certificates for Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall use its best efforts to implement such
adjustment on terms reasonably acceptable to the Holder within two Trading Days
after such occurrence.
(B) If the Corporation fails to issue and
deliver the shares of Common Stock to a converting Holder in connection with a
particular conversion of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock within
five Trading Days after such Holder gives the Conversion Notice for such
conversion, in addition to any other liabilities the Corporation may have
hereunder and under applicable law (i) the Corporation shall pay or reimburse
such Holder on demand for all out-of-pocket expenses, including, without
limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel, incurred by the
Holder as a result of such failure, (ii) if as a result of such failure such
Holder shall suffer any direct damages or liabilities from such failure
(including, without limitation, margin interest and the cost of purchasing
securities to cover a sale (whether by such Holder or such Holder's securities
broker) or borrowing of shares of Common Stock by such Holder for purposes of
settling any trade involving a sale of shares of Common Stock made by such
Holder during the period beginning on the Issuance Date and ending on the date
the Corporation delivers or causes to be delivered to such Holder such shares of
Common Stock, then the Corporation shall upon demand of such Holder pay to the
Holder an amount equal to the actual direct, out-of-pocket damages and
liabilities suffered by such Holder by reason thereof which such Holder
documents to the reasonable satisfaction of the Corporation, and (iii) the
Holder may by written notice (which may be given by mail, courier, personal
service or telephone line facsimile transmission) or oral notice (promptly
confirmed in writing), given at any time prior to delivery to such Holder of the
shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with such exercise of the Holder's
conversion right, rescind such exercise and the Conversion Notice relating
thereto, in which case such Holder shall thereafter be entitled to convert, in
accordance with this Section 10 that portion of such shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock as to which such exercise is so rescinded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be liable to such
Holder under clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence to the extent the
failure of the Corporation to deliver or to cause to be delivered such shares of
Common Stock results from fire, flood, storm, earthquake, shipwreck, strike,
war, acts of terrorism, crash involving facilities of a common carrier, acts of
God, or any similar event outside the control of the Corporation (it being
understood that the action or failure to act of the Transfer Agent shall not be
deemed an event outside the control of the Corporation except to the extent
resulting from fire, flood, storm, earthquake, shipwreck, strike, war, acts of
terrorism, crash involving facilities of a common carrier, acts of God, the
bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Transfer Agent under any
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or any similar event outside the
control of the Transfer Agent). A converting Holder shall notify the Corporation
in writing (or by telephone conversation, confirmed in writing) as promptly as
practicable following the third Trading Day after such Holder gives a Conversion
Notice if such Holder becomes aware that such shares of Common Stock so issuable
have not been received as provided herein, but any failure so to give such
notice shall not affect the Holder's rights under this Certificate of
Designations or otherwise. If the Holder shall have exercised the conversion
right in any particular instance and either (1) the Corporation shall notify the
Holder on or after the date the Holder gives such Conversion Notice that the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion might not be delivered
within three Trading Days after the date the Holder gives such Conversion Notice
or (2) the Holder learns after the date which is three Trading Days after the
date the Holder gives such Conversion Notice that the Holder has not received
such shares of Common Stock, then, without releasing the Corporation of its
obligations with respect thereto, from and after the Trading Day next succeeding
the earlier of the events described in the preceding clauses (1) and (2) of this
sentence the Holder shall make reasonable efforts not to sell shares of Common
Stock in anticipation of receipt of such shares of Common Stock in a manner
which is likely to increase materially the liability of the Corporation under
clause (B) of the first sentence of this Section 10(b)(5).
18
(6) No fractional shares of Common Stock
shall be issued upon conversion of any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock but, in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock which would
otherwise be issuable in respect of such conversion, the Corporation shall pay
lawful money of the United States of America for such fractional share, based on
a value of one share of Common Stock being equal to the Market Price of the
Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date.
(c) Adjustment
of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted
from time to time by the Corporation as follows:
(1) Adjustments
for Certain Dividends and Distributions in Common Stock. In case the Corporation shall on or
after the Issuance Date pay a dividend or make a distribution to all holders of
the outstanding Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in
effect at the opening of business on the date following the date fixed for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other
distribution shall be reduced by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
at the close of business on the Record Date fixed for such determination and the
denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of
shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such reduction to
become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following
such Record Date. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this
Section 10(c)(1) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall
again be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such
dividend or distribution had not been declared.
19
(2) Weighted
Adjustments for Certain Issuances of Rights or Warrants. In case the Corporation shall on or
after the Issuance Date issue rights or warrants (other than any rights or
warrants referred to in Section 10(c)(4)) to all holders of its outstanding
shares of Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days
after the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive
such rights or warrants) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at
a price per share less than the Current Market Price on the Record Date fixed
for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or
warrants, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal
the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect at the
opening of business on the date after such Record Date by a fraction of which
the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the
close of business on the applicable Record Date plus the number of shares which
the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered would
purchase at such Current Market Price, and the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the close of business on such Record
Date plus the total number of additional shares of Common Stock so offered for
subscription or purchase. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately
after the opening of business on the day following the Record Date fixed for
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To
the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered pursuant to such rights
or warrants, upon the expiration or termination of such rights or warrants, the
Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be
in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants
been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock
actually delivered. In the event that such rights or warrants are not so issued,
the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which
would then be in effect if such Record Date had not been fixed. In determining
whether any rights or warrants entitle the holder to subscribe for or purchase
shares of Common Stock at less than such Current Market Price, and in
determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there
shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights or
warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined
by the Board of Directors.
(3) Adjustments
for Certain Subdivisions of the Common Stock. In case the outstanding shares of
Common Stock shall on or after the Issuance Date be subdivided into a greater
number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening
of business on the earlier of the day following the day upon which such
subdivision becomes effective and the day on which “ex-” trading of the Common
Stock begins with respect to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced,
and conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined
into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect
at the opening of business on the earlier of the day following the day upon
which such combination becomes effective and the day on which “ex-” trading of
the Common Stock with respect to such combination begins shall be
proportionately increased, such reduction or increase, as the case may be, to
become effective immediately after the opening of business on the earlier of the
day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes
effective and the day on which “ex-” trading of the Common Stock begins with
respect to such subdivision or combination.
20
(4) Adjustments
for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In case the Corporation shall on or
after the Issuance Date, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of
its Common Stock shares of any class of capital stock of the Corporation (other
than any dividends or distributions to which Section 10(c)(1) applies) or
evidences of its indebtedness, cash or other assets (including securities, but
excluding any rights or warrants referred to in Section 10(c)(2) and dividends
and distributions paid exclusively in cash and excluding any capital stock,
evidences of indebtedness, cash or assets distributed upon a merger or
consolidation to which Section 10(d) applies) (the foregoing hereinafter in this
Section 10(c)(4) called the “Securities”)), then, in each such case, subject to
the second paragraph of this Section 10(c)(4), the Conversion Price shall be
reduced so that the same shall be equal to the price determined by multiplying
the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the
Record Date with respect to such distribution by a fraction of which the
numerator shall be the Current Market Price on such date less the fair market
value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be
conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) on such date of the portion of
the Securities so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and the
denominator shall be such Current Market Price, such reduction to become
effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following such
Record Date; provided, however,
that in the event the then
fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Securities so
distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than
the Current Market Price on the Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing
adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that the Holders shall have the
right to receive upon conversion of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock the amount of Securities such Holder would have received had such Holder
converted such Holder's shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event that such dividend or
distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be
adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such
dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors
determines the fair market value of any distribution for purposes of this
Section 10(c)(4) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for
any Securities comprising all or part of such distribution, it must in doing so
consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the
Current Market Price to the extent possible.
Rights or
warrants distributed by the Corporation to all holders of Common Stock entitling
the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Corporation's
capital stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or
warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger
Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (ii)
are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of
Common Stock, shall not be deemed to have been distributed for purposes of this
Section 10(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section
10(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event. If
any such rights or warrants, including any such existing rights or warrants
distributed prior to the Issuance Date are subject to Trigger Events, upon the
satisfaction of each of which such rights or warrants shall become exercisable
to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets,
then the occurrence of each such Trigger Event shall be deemed to be such date
of issuance and record date with respect to new rights or warrants (and a
termination or expiration of the existing rights or warrants without exercise by
the holder thereof) (so that, by way of illustration and not limitation, the
dates of issuance of any such rights shall be deemed to be the dates on which
such rights become exercisable to purchase capital stock of the Corporation, and
not the date on which such rights may be issued, or may become evidenced by
separate certificates, if such rights are not then so exercisable). In addition,
in the event of any distribution of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event
with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution
amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 10(c)
was made (1) in the case of any such rights or warrants which shall all have
been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the
Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to
give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though
it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase
price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such
rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants),
made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or
repurchase, and (2) in the case of such rights or warrants which shall have
expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the
Conversion Price shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been
issued.
21
For
purposes of this Section 10(c)(4) and Sections 10(c)(1) and (2), any dividend or
distribution to which this Section 10(c)(4) is applicable that also includes
shares of Common Stock, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
shares of Common Stock to which Section 10(c)(2) applies (or both), shall be
deemed instead to be (1) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of
indebtedness, assets, shares of capital stock, rights or warrants other than
such shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants to which Section 10(c)(2)
applies (and any Conversion Price reduction required by this Section 10(c)(4)
with respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately
followed by (2) a dividend or distribution of such shares of Common Stock or
such rights or warrants (and any further Conversion Price reduction required by
Sections 10(c)(1) and (2) with respect to such dividend or distribution shall
then be made), except (A) the Record Date of such dividend or distribution shall
be substituted as “the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such dividend or other distribution”, “Record Date fixed for such
determination” and “Record Date” within the meaning of Section 10(c)(1) and as
“the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
rights or warrants”, “the Record Date fixed for the determination of the
stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants” and “such Record Date”
within the meaning of Section 10(c)(2) and (B) any shares of Common Stock
included in such dividend or distribution shall not be deemed “outstanding at
the close of business on the Record Date fixed for such determination” within
the meaning of Section 10(c)(1).
(5) Adjustments
for Certain Cash Dividends. In case the Corporation shall on or
after the Issuance Date, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of
its Common Stock cash (excluding any cash that is distributed upon a merger or
consolidation to which Section 10(d) applies or as part of a distribution
referred to in Section 10(c)(4)) in an aggregate amount that, combined with (1)
the aggregate amount of any other such distributions to all holders of its
Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the 12 months preceding the date of
payment of such distribution, and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to
this Section 10(c)(5) has been made, and (2) the aggregate of any cash plus the
fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination
shall be conclusive and set forth in a Board Resolution) of consideration
payable in respect of any Tender Offer by the Corporation or any Subsidiary for
all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the 12 months preceding
the date of payment of such distribution, exceeds 1% of the product of (x) the
Current Market Price on the Record Date with respect to such distribution
times
(y) the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding on such date, then, and in each such case,
immediately after the close of business on such date, unless the Corporation
elects to reserve such cash for distribution to the Holders upon the conversion
of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (and shall have made adequate
provision) so that the Holders will receive upon such conversion, in addition to
the shares of Common Stock to which the Holders are entitled, the amount of cash
which the Holders would have received if the Holders had, immediately prior to
the Record Date for such distribution of cash, converted their shares of Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be
reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such
Record Date by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to the
Current Market Price on such Record Date less an amount equal to the quotient of
(x) the excess of such combined amount over such 1% and (y) the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding on such Record Date and (ii) the denominator of
which shall be equal to the Current Market Price on such Record Date;
provided, however,
that in the event the
portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock is
equal to or greater than the Current Market Price of the Common Stock on such
Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be
made so that the Holders shall have the right to receive upon conversion of
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock the amount of cash the Holders
would have received had the Holders converted all of their shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such Record Date. In the event
that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price
shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in effect
if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
22
(6) Adjustments
for Certain Issuances of Newly Issued Shares. (A) In case at any time on or before
after the Issuance Date the Corporation issues shares of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents (collectively, the “Newly Issued Shares”) at a price per share
at which the Corporation sells such shares of Common Stock or the price per
share at which the holders of such Common Stock Equivalents are entitled to
acquire shares of Common Stock upon conversion or exercise thereof which is less
than the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issuance, then following
such issuance the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the lowest price per
share at which such shares of Common Stock are issued or at which such Common
Stock Equivalents may be exercised, if the same is lower than the Conversion
Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance.
(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
adjustment shall be made under this Section 10(c)(6) by reason
of:
(i) the issuance by the Corporation of
shares of Common Stock pro rata to all holders of the Common Stock so long as
(i) any adjustment to the Conversion Price that is required by Section 10(c)(1)
is made and (ii) the Corporation shall have given notice of such issuance
thereof to the Holders pursuant to Section 10(f);
(ii) the issuance by the Corporation of the
Notes or the Warrants or the issuance by the Corporation of shares of Common
Stock upon conversion of the Notes or upon exercise of the Warrants in
accordance with the terms thereof;
(iii) the issuance by the Corporation of
shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion of the Notes or Other Notes
or shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock in
accordance with the terms hereof and thereof;
23
(iv) the issuance by the Corporation of
Newly Issued Shares upon grant or exercise of options for employees, directors
and consultants under the 2003 Stock Option Plan, 2004 Non-Employee Stock
Compensation Plan and the 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan or any other stock
compensation plan that has been duly adopted by the Board of Directors and duly
approved by the Corporation’s stockholders;
(v) the issuance by the Corporation of
Newly Issued Shares upon conversion of Common Stock Equivalents that are
outstanding on the Issuance Date in accordance with the terms of such Common
Stock Equivalents in effect on the Issuance Date; or
(vi) the issuance by the Corporation for
cash of Newly Issued Shares in connection with a strategic alliance,
collaboration, joint venture, partnership or similar arrangement of the
Corporation with another Person which strategic alliance, collaboration, joint
venture, partnership or similar arrangement relates to the Corporation’s
business as conducted immediately prior thereto and which Person is engaged in a
business similar or related to the business of the Corporation so long as (x)
the price per Newly Issued Share is not less than 85 percent of the Current Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of issuance of such Newly Issued
Shares and (y) the consideration other than cash which the Corporation receives
in connection with such strategic alliance, collaboration, joint venture,
partnership or similar arrangement has a value, as determined by the Board of
Directors in its reasonable judgment and set forth in a Board Resolution, at
least equal to the amount by which (i) the product of the Newly Issued Shares so
issued times the Current Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock on the date such Newly issued Shares are issued exceeds (ii) the
aggregate cash consideration received by the Corporation for such Newly Issued
Shares at the time of issuance thereof and (z) such issuance has been duly
approved by the Board of Directors as set forth in a Board
Resolution.
(7) Adjustment
in Connection Sales by a Designated Person. (A) If at any time on or after the
Issuance Date any Designated Person, directly or indirectly, sells, transfers or
disposes of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than a
Permitted Designated Person Sale and on the Measurement Date for such sale,
transfer or disposition the Conversion Price in effect on such Measurement Date
is greater than the Computed Market Price on such Measurement Date, then,
subject to the next succeeding sentence, the Conversion Price shall be reduced
to such Computed Market Price, such adjustment to become effective immediately
after the opening of business on the day following the Measurement
Date.
(B) The Corporation shall instruct the
Transfer Agent to inform the Corporation immediately upon the sale, transfer or
disposition of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents by any
Designated Person. The Corporation shall inform the Holders immediately by phone
and electronic transmission upon becoming aware of any sale, transfer or
disposition of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents by any
Designated Person and will follow up with formal written notice to the Holders
pursuant to Section 15(a).
(8) Additional
Reductions in Conversion Price. The Corporation may make such
reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by Sections
10(c)(1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6) or (7) as the Board of Directors considers to
be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or
rights to purchase Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of
stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income
tax purposes.
24
(9) De
Minimus Adjustments. No
adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment
would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided, however,
that any adjustments which
by reason of this Section 10(c)(9) are not required to be made shall be carried
forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations
under this Section 10 shall be made by the Corporation and shall be made to the
nearest cent or to the nearest one hundredth of a share, as the case may be. No
adjustment need be made for a change in the par value of the Common Stock or
from par value to no par value or from no par value to par
value.
(10) Corporation
Notice of Adjustments.
Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Corporation
shall promptly, but in no event later than five days thereafter, give notice to
the Holders setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting
forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, but which
statement shall not include any information which would be material non-public
information for purposes of the 1934 Act. Failure to deliver such notice shall
not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.
(11) Effectiveness
of Certain Adjustments. In
any case in which this Section 10(c) provides that an adjustment shall become
effective immediately after a Record Date for an event, the Corporation may
defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Holders in
connection with any conversion of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
after such Record Date and before the occurrence of such event the additional
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment
required by such event over and above the Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (ii) paying to such
Holders any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section
10(b)(6).
(12) Outstanding
Shares. For purposes of
this Section 10(c), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding
shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Corporation but shall
include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of
fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Corporation will not pay any dividend
or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the
Corporation other than dividends or distributions payable only in shares of
Common Stock.
(d) Effect
of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. (1) If any of the following events
occur, namely:
(A) any
reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (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 combination),
25
(B) any
consolidation, merger or combination of the Corporation with another corporation
or other entity as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled
to receive stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash) with
respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, or
(C) any
sale or conveyance of the properties and assets of the Corporation as, or
substantially as, an entirety to any other corporation or other entity as a
result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock,
securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in
exchange for such Common Stock,
then the
Corporation or the successor or purchasing corporation or other entity, as the
case may be, shall prior to such transaction:
(w) amend its certificate of incorporation
or comparable instrument to provide that the shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock shall be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock
and other securities or property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance
by the holder of a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance
assuming such holder of Common Stock did not exercise such holder's rights of
election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other property
receivable upon such consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, sale or
conveyance (provided that, if the kind or amount of securities,
cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, statutory
exchange, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common Stock in
respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised
(“non-electing share”), then for the purposes of this Section 10(d) the kind and
amount of securities, cash or other property receivable upon such consolidation,
merger, statutory exchange, sale or conveyance for each non-electing share shall
be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of
the non-electing shares);
(x) the Conversion Price shall, upon such
consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance,
thereafter be the lower of (1) the Conversion Price then in effect and (2) the
price paid or deemed to have been paid for one share of Common Stock in such
consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, combination, sale or conveyance
(subject to further adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section
10),
(y) in the case of any such successor or
purchasing Person, such Person shall execute with each Holder a written
agreement providing that upon such consolidation, merger, combination, sale or
conveyance such successor or purchasing Person shall be jointly and severally
liable with the Corporation for the performance of all of the Corporation's
obligations under this Certificate of Designations and the other Transaction
Documents; and
(z) if registration or qualification is
required under the 1933 Act or applicable state law for the public resale by the
Holder of such shares of stock and other securities so issuable upon conversion
of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, such registration or
qualification shall be completed prior to such reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, combination or sale.
26
Such
amendment shall provide for, among other things, adjustments in the conversion
rights of the Holders which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable
to the adjustments provided for in this Section 10. If, in the case of any such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or
conveyance, the stock or other securities and assets receivable thereupon by a
holder of shares of Common Stock includes shares of stock or other securities
and assets of a corporation or other entity other than the successor or
purchasing corporation or other entity, as the case may be, in such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or
conveyance, then such other corporation or other entity shall also so amend its
certificate of incorporation or comparable instrument and enter into such
written agreement with each Holder. The certificate(s) of incorporation or
comparable instruments so amended and such written agreement(s) of each such
corporation or other entity shall also contain such additional provisions to
protect the interests of the Holders as the Board of Directors shall reasonably
consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including the provisions
providing for the redemption rights set forth in Section 11.
(2) The provisions of this Section 10(d)
shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations,
mergers, combinations, sales and conveyances.
(3) If this Section 10(d) applies to any
event or occurrence, Section 10(c) shall not apply.
(e) Reservation
of Shares; Shares to Be Fully Paid; Listing of Common Stock.
(1) The Corporation shall reserve and keep
available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock or shares of Common Stock held in treasury, solely for
issuance upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, sufficient
shares to provide for the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
from time to time as shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are
converted.
(2) Before taking any action which would
cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the then par value, if
any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall take all corporate action
which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the
Corporation may validly and legally issue shares of such Common Stock at such
adjusted Conversion Price.
(3) The Corporation covenants that all
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Corporation and
free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue
thereof.
(4) The Corporation covenants that if any
shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of the
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock require registration with or approval of
any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may
be validly issued upon conversion, the Corporation will in good faith and as
expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure such registration or approval, as
the case may be.
27
(5) The Corporation covenants that, so long
as the Common Stock shall be listed on the AMEX, the NYSE or any other national
securities exchange or Nasdaq or Nasdaq Capital Market or the OTCBB, the
Corporation shall obtain and, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on
such market or exchange, maintain approval for listing thereon of all Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock.
(f) Notice
to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case on or after the Issuance
Date:
(1) the Corporation shall declare a
dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common Stock (other than in cash out
of retained earnings); or
(2) the Corporation shall authorize the
granting to the holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase any share of any class or any other rights or warrants;
or
(3) the Board of Directors shall authorize
any reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision or
combination of the outstanding Common Stock, or a change in par value, or from
par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value), or any
consolidation or merger or other business combination transaction to which the
Corporation is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the
Corporation is required, or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Corporation; or
(4) there shall be pending the voluntary or
involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the
Corporation;
the
Corporation shall give the holders of record of the Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock, as promptly as possible but in any event at least ten Trading
Days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date
as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such
dividend, distribution or rights are to be determined, or (y) the date on which
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, other business combination
transaction, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected
to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that
holders of Common Stock of record who shall be entitled to exchange their Common
Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, other business combination transaction, sale, transfer,
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up shall be determined. Such notice shall
not include any information which would be material non-public information for
purposes of the 1934 Act. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein,
shall not affect the legality or validity of such dividend, distribution,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up. In the case of any such action of which the
Corporation gives such notice to the holders of record of the Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock or is required to give such notice to such holders,
such holders shall be entitled to give a Conversion Notice which is contingent
on the completion of such action.
28
(g) Restricted
Ownership Percentage Limitation. (1) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be
acquired at any time by a Holder upon conversion of shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock shall not exceed a number that, when added to the
total number of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by such Holder
(other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire
securities (including the Notes and the Warrants) that have limitations on the
holder's right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set
forth herein (the “Excluded Shares”)), together with all shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned at such time (other than by virtue of the ownership of
Excluded Shares) by Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be
aggregated with the beneficial ownership by such Holder for purposes of
determining whether a group exists or for purposes of determining the Holder’s
beneficial ownership (the “Aggregation Parties”), in either such case for
purposes of Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Regulation 13D-G thereunder
(including, without limitation, as the same is made applicable to Section 16 of
the 1934 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder), would result in beneficial
ownership by such Holder or such group of more than 9.9% of the shares of Common
Stock for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the 1934 Act and the rules
promulgated thereunder (as the same may be modified by a particular Holder as
provided herein, the “Restricted Ownership Percentage”). A Holder shall have the
right (x) at any time and from time to time to reduce its Restricted Ownership
Percentage immediately upon notice to the Corporation in the event and only to
the extent that Section 16 of the 1934 Act or the rules promulgated thereunder
(or any successor statute or rules) is changed to reduce the beneficial
ownership percentage threshold thereunder to a percentage less than 9.9% and (y)
at any time and from time to time, to increase its Restricted Ownership
Percentage unless such Holder shall have, by written instrument delivered to the
Corporation, irrevocably waived its rights to so increase its Restricted
Ownership Percentage. If at any time the limits in this Section 10(g) make the
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by any Holder inconvertible
in whole or in part, the Corporation shall not by reason thereof be relieved of
its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock at any time or from time to time
thereafter upon conversion of such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock as and when shares of Common Stock may be issued in compliance with such
restrictions.
(2) For purposes of this Section 10(g), in
determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock at any time a
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected
in (1) the Corporation's then most recent Form 10-Q, Form 10-K or other public
filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (2) a public announcement by the
Corporation that is later than any such filing referred to in the preceding
clause (1) or (3) any other notice by the Corporation or its transfer agent
setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and knowledge the
Holder may have about the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon
conversions or exercises of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or other Common
Stock Equivalents by any Person, including such Holder, which are not reflected
in the information referred to in the preceding clauses (1) through (3). Upon
the written request of any Holder, the Corporation shall within three Business
Days confirm in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall
be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of Common Stock
Equivalents, including the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the
Notes and the Warrants, by the Holder or its affiliates, in each such case
subsequent to, the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock was reported.
29
Section
11. Redemption
at Option of Holders.
(a) Redemption
Right. If an Optional Redemption Event
occurs, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of any holder of shares
of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, each holder of shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right, at such holder's option, to
require the Corporation to redeem all of such holder's shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock, or any portion thereof, on the date that is five
Business Days after the date such holder gives the Corporation a Holder Notice
with respect to such Optional Redemption Event at any time while any of such
holder's shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, at a
price equal to the Optional Redemption Price.
(b) Notices;
Method of Exercising Optional Redemption Rights, Etc. (1) On or before the fifth Business
Day after the occurrence of an Optional Redemption Event, the Corporation shall
give to each Holder a Corporation Notice of the occurrence of such Optional
Redemption Event and of the redemption right set forth herein arising as a
result thereof. The Corporation Notice shall set forth:
(i) the date by which the optional
redemption right must be exercised, and
(ii) a description of the procedure (set
forth in this Section 11) which each such Holder must follow to exercise such
Holder's optional redemption right,
and shall
be accompanied by a Corporation Certificate with the information set forth
therein being provided as of a date not more than 5 Business Days prior to the
date the Corporation gives such Corporation Notice. No failure of the
Corporation to give such notice or defect therein shall limit the right of any
holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to exercise the
optional redemption right or affect the validity of the proceedings for the
redemption of such holder's shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock.
(2) To exercise its optional redemption
right, a Holder shall deliver to the Corporation on or before the 30th day after
the notice required by Section 11(b)(1) is given to such Holder (or if no such
notice has been given by the Corporation to such Holder, within 40 days after
such Holder first learns of such Optional Redemption Event) a Holder Notice to
the Corporation. At the Corporation's option, a Holder Notice may be revoked by
such Holder giving such Holder Notice by giving notice of such revocation to the
Corporation at any time prior to the time the Corporation pays the Optional
Redemption Price to such Holder.
(3) If a Holder shall have given a Holder
Notice, on the date which is five Business Days after the date such Holder
Notice is given (or such later date as such Holder surrenders such Holder's
certificates for the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to be
redeemed) the Corporation shall make payment in immediately available funds of
the applicable Optional Redemption Price to such account as specified by such
Holder in writing to the Corporation at least one Business Day prior to the
applicable redemption date.
30
(c) Other. (1) In connection with a redemption
pursuant to this Section 11 of less than all of the shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock evidenced by a particular certificate, promptly, but
in no event later than three Business Days after surrender of such certificate
to the Corporation, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such Holder a
replacement certificate for the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
evidenced by such certificate which have not been redeemed.
(2) A Holder Notice given by a holder of
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be deemed for all purposes
to be in proper form unless the Corporation notifies such holder in writing
within three Business Days after such Holder Notice has been given (which notice
shall specify all defects in such Holder Notice), and any Holder Notice
containing any such defect shall nonetheless be effective on the date given if
such Holder promptly undertakes to correct all such defects. No such claim of
error shall limit or delay performance of the Corporation's obligation to redeem
all shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock not in dispute whether or not
such Holder makes such undertaking.
(3) If on or before a particular Optional
Redemption Date the Corporation shall have failed to pay in full the Optional
Redemption Price for all shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to be
redeemed to the Holder entitled thereto or to deposit the same with an Eligible
Bank in accordance with Section 15(c), then without in any way relieving the
Corporation of its obligation to pay such amount in accordance herewith (except
to the extent expressly provided in this Section 11(d)(3)), the Holder of any
such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall continue to have the
right to convert such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into Common
Stock in accordance with Section 10 at any time prior to the date on which the
Corporation pays the Optional Redemption Price of such share of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock to such Holder (together with any amount due to such
holder pursuant to Section 15(d)) or so deposits the same (together with any
amount due to such Holder pursuant to Section 15(d)) and gives notice to such
Holder of such deposit; provided,
however, that the shares of Common Stock received by
such Holder upon any such conversion in certain circumstances may be subject to
restrictions on resale by such Holder arising under applicable securities laws
to the extent not registered for resale by such Holder pursuant to the
Registration Statement. If a Holder converts all or any portion of such Holder's
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as permitted by this Section
11(d)(3), the amount of the Optional Redemption Price due to such Holder with
respect to the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so
converted shall be reduced by $1,000 for each share of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock so converted.
Section
12. Voting
Rights; Certain Restrictions and Covenants.
(a) Voting
Rights. The Holder of each
share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a number of
votes per share at any time equal to (1) in any case in which the Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock votes together with the Common Stock or any other
class or series of stock of the Corporation, the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of such share of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock at such time (determined without regard to the shares of Common Stock so
issuable upon such conversion in respect of accrued and unpaid dividends on such
share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock) and (2) in any case not covered
by the immediately preceding clause (1), one vote per share of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock. Each Holder shall be entitled to notice of any
shareholders’ meeting in accordance with the bylaws of the Corporation and shall
vote with holders of Common Stock upon the election of directors and upon any
other matter submitted to a vote of shareholders, except those matters required
by law to be submitted to a vote of holders of Preferred Stock or Series A

however, be permitted.

redemption of or payment of dividends on, any class or series of capital stock
of the Corporation or (4) any sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Corporation, or any merger, consolidation, or business

however, that any increase
in the authorized Preferred Stock of the Corporation or the creation and
issuance of any stock which is both Junior Dividend Stock and Junior Liquidation
Stock shall not be deemed to affect materially and adversely such powers,
preferences, or special rights and any such increase or creation and issuance
may be made without any such vote by the holders of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock except as otherwise required by law; and provided further,
however, that no such
amendment, alteration or repeal shall (i) reduce the Optional Redemption Price
or the amount payable to a Holder pursuant to Section 5, (ii) change the
definition of Majority Holders, (iii) change the method of calculating the
Conversion Price in a manner adverse to the Holders or reduce the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon any conversion of shares of Series A

Incorporation which effects a combination of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock and results in an adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to Section
10(c)(3)), or (iv) amend, modify or repeal any provision of this Section 12(b),

fixed conversion, exercise, exchange or purchase price that is subject to being
reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalent or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events
directly or indirectly related to the business of the Corporation or the market

Act.
(e) Concerning
the Noteholders. The Corporation shall not take any
action or engage in any transaction, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or
understanding to take any action or engage in any transaction, which would
constitute a Fundamental Change without the advance written consent of the
Majority Noteholders. So long as any Notes are outstanding, in addition to any
other consent required by the Certificate of Incorporation including this

Annex
VII
Press
Release
As
previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K of eMagin Corporation (the
“Company”) dated as of July 25, 2006, the Company entered into several
Note Purchase Agreements (the “Original Purchase Agreements”) to sell to certain
qualified institutional buyers and accredited investors $5,990,000 in principal
amount 6% Senior Secured Convertible Notes convertible into common stock at
$2.60 per share Due July 21, 2007 and January 21, 2008 (the “Notes’), together
with warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase 1,612,700 shares of the Company’s
common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at $3.60 per
share.
As
previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 13, 2007, the
Company amended its Original Purchase Agreement with a certain qualified
accredited investors to sell such investor $500,000 in Notes convertible into
common stock at $.35 per share, together with Warrants to purchase 1,000,000
shares of the Company’s Common Stock at $.48 per share (the “Other Purchase
Agreement”).
By way of
Amendment Agreements dated July 23, 2007 (the “Amendment Agreements”) between
the Company and each of the holders of the Notes (each a “Holder” and
collectively, the “Holders”), the Company agreed to issue each Holder an amended
and restated Note (the “Amended Notes”) in the principal amount equal to the
principal amount outstanding as of July 23, 2007. The changes to the Amended
Notes include the following:
·
|
The maturity
date for the outstanding Notes (totaling after conversions an aggregate of
$6,020,000) has been extended to December 21, 2008;
|
·
|
Liquidated
damages of 1% per month related to the Company’s delisting from the
American Stock Exchange will no longer accrue and the deferred interest
balance of approximately $230,000 has been
forgiven;
|
·
|
The
Company no longer has to maintain a minimum cash or cash equivalents
balances of $600,000;
|
·
|
The
Amended Notes may not be prepaid without consent of The
Holders;
|
·
|
As
of July 23, 2007 the annual interest rate was raised from 6% per
annum to 8% per annum;
|
·
|
The
Amended Notes are convertible into (i) 8,407,612 shares of the Company’s
common stock. The conversion price for $5,770,000 of principal was revised
from $2.60 to $.75 per share and was unchanged for the remaining $250,000
of principal from the Other Purchase
Agreement;
|
·
|
In
addition to the right to convert the Amended Notes into the Company's
common stock, up to $3,010,000 of the Amended Notes can be
converted into (ii) 3,010 shares of the Company’s newly formed Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred” or the “Preferred
Stock”) at a stated value of $1,000 per share. The Preferred is
convertible into common stock at the same rate as their Note, subject to
adjustment as provided for in the Certificate of Designations (discussed
below);
|
·
|
Except
for the Amended Note associated with the Other Purchase Agreement, the
Amendment Agreements adjusts the exercise price of the amended Warrants
from $3.60 to $1.03 per share for 1,553,468 shares of Common Stock and
requires the issuance of Warrants exercisable for an additional 3,831,859
shares of Common Stock at $1.03 per share with an expiration date of July
21, 2011;
|
·
|
The
Amended Notes eliminate the requirement that the Company comply with
certain covenants of management contained in Note. Specifically, among
other things, the requirements to defer management compensation and to
maintain a management committee were removed; and
|
·
|
The
Amended Notes and/or the Series A Convertible Preferred stock are subject
to certain anti-dilution adjustment rights in the event the Company issues
shares of its Common Stock or securities convertible into its Common Stock
at a price per share that is less than the Conversion Price, in which case
the Conversation Price shall be adjusted to such lower
price.
|
1
Pursuant
to the Amended Notes, the Company cannot enter into a transaction that
constitutes a Fundamental Change without the consent of the Note Holders. A
Fundamental Change includes the following:
·
|
The
consolidation or merger of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries;
|
·
|
The
acquisition by a person or group of entities acting in concert of 50% or
more of the combined voting power of the outstanding securities of the
Company; and
|
·
|
the
occurrence of any transaction or event in which all or substantially all
of the shares of the Company’s common stock is exchanged for converted
into acquired for or constitutes the right to receive consideration which
is not all or substantially all common stock which is listed on a national
securities exchange or approved for quotation on Nasdaq or any similar
United States system of automated dissemination of transaction reporting
securities prices.
|
Pursuant
to the Amendment Agreements, the Company is required to file a Certificate of
Designations of Series A Senior Secured Convertible Preferred Stock (the
“Certificate of Designations”). The Certificate of Designations designates 3,198
shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Senior Secured Convertible
Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000. The Preferred
Stock is entitled to cumulative dividends which accrue at a rate of 8% per
annum, payable on the December 21, 2008. Each share of Preferred Stock has
voting rights equal to (1) in any case in which the Preferred Stock votes
together with the Company’s Common Stock or any other class or series of stock
of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
such shares of Preferred Stock at such time (determined without regard to the
shares of Common Stock so issuable upon such conversion in respect of accrued
and unpaid dividends on such share of Preferred Stock) and (2) in any case not
covered by the immediately preceding clause one vote per share of Preferred
Stock. The Certificate of Designations prohibits the Company from entering into
a Fundamental Change without the consent of the Holders and contains
antidilution adjustments rights that are comparable to the antidilution
adjustments contained in the Amended Notes.
The
amended Warrants are subject to certain anti-dilution adjustment rights in the
event the Company issues shares of its Common Stock or securities convertible
into its Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the Strike Price,
in which case the Strike Price shall be adjusted to the lower of (1) 138% of the
price at which such common stock is issued or issuable and (2) the exercise
price of warrants, issued in such transaction."
Pursuant
to the Amendment Agreements, the Company is required to file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission by August 31, 2007
covering the resale of 100% of the sum of (a) the number of shares issuable upon
conversion of the Amended Notes and Preferred Stock, and (b) the number of
shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.
Pursuant
to the Amendment Agreement, the Company and the Collateral Agent, on behalf of
the note holders, executed Amendment No. 1 to the Pledge and Security Agreement;
Amendment No. 1 to Patent and Trademark Security Agreement; Amendment No. 1 to
Lockbox Agreement. The Pledge and Security Agreement, Trademark Security
Agreement and Lockbox Agreement were previously entered into on July 21,
2006 (collectively, the “Ancillary Agreements”). The Ancillary Agreements were
amended to cover obligations that may become payable to the holders of the
preferred stock and to delete certain definitions used in the Ancillary
Agreements and substitute definitions of terms used in the Ancillary
Agreeements.
The
summary of amendment terms contained herein does not include all information
included in the Amendment Agreement, the Amended Notes, the amended Warrants,
the Certificate of Designations or the Ancillary Agreements and, consequently,
is qualified in its entirety by reference to the entire text of the Amendment
Agreements and the forms of the Amended Notes, amended Warrants, Certificate of
Designations, Amendment No. 1 to Pledge and Security Agreement, Amendment No. 1
to Patent and Trademark Security Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to Lockbox
Agreement, each of which is attached as an Exhibit to this Current Report on
Form 8-K.

the Company’s employees and one current board member purchased Notes pursuant to
the Original Purchase Agreement. Their Notes and Warrants are as follows after
the completion of the Amended Note agreement; Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Senior VP of
Display Operations, $10,000 Note may be converted into 13,333 shares and he has
