Subscription Form and deliver this Warrant to the Company, together with cash in
an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the shares of the Stock then
being purchased, at its office or agency provided for in Section 2. The exercise
of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected, and the Purchase Price
and the number of shares of the Stock issuable in connection with such exercise
shall be determined, as of the close of business on the business day prior to
the date on which the last to be delivered of such completed Subscription Form
and all other items required to be delivered in connection with such exercise by
the registered Warrantholder hereof pursuant to Section 5.B shall have been
delivered at such office or agency. Upon receipt of such Subscription Form and
other items, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable and in any event
within five days thereafter, execute or cause to be executed and deliver to said
Warrantholder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of
shares of the Stock specified in such Form. Each Stock certificate so delivered
shall be in such denomination as may be requested by the registered
Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of said Warrantholder or such
other name as shall be designated by said Warrantholder, and, to the extent
permitted by law, the person in whose name any such Stock certificate shall be
issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to have become the holder of record
of the shares represented thereby as of the time when the exercise of this
Warrant with respect to such shares shall be deemed to have been effected. If
this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at its
expense at the time of delivery of said Stock certificate or certificates,
deliver to such holder a new Warrant of like tenor evidencing the rights of such
holder to purchase the remaining shares of the Stock covered by this Warrant.
The Company shall pay all taxes, other expenses and charges payable in
connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of Stock certificates
pursuant to this Section 4, except that, in case such Stock certificates shall
be registered in a name or names other than the name of the registered holder of
this Warrant, funds sufficient to pay all stock transfer taxes which shall be
payable upon the execution and delivery of such Stock certificate or
certificates shall be paid by the registered holder of this Warrant to the
Company at the time of delivery of such Stock certificates to the Company as
mentioned above.
B. Transfer Restriction Legend. Each certificate representing Warrant
Shares initially issued upon exercise of this Warrant, unless at the time of
exercise such Warrant Shares are registered under the Securities Act, shall bear
a legend in substantially the following form (and any additional legend required
by any securities exchange on which the Warrant Shares may at the time be
listed) on the face thereof:
The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state
securities laws. The transfer of said securities is subject to the
restrictions set forth in Section 5 hereof
4
and no transfer of said securities shall be valid or effective unless
and except in compliance with the terms and conditions of said Section
5.
Any certificate issued at any time upon transfer of, or in exchange for or
replacement of, any certificate bearing such legend (except a new certificate
issued upon completion of a public distribution of the securities represented by
such certificate pursuant to a registration under the Securities Act) shall also
bear such legend unless, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, addressed
and delivered to the Company and such holder, the securities represented by such
certificate no longer need to be subject to the restrictions contained in
Section 5. The provisions of Section 5 shall be binding upon all subsequent
holders of certificates bearing the above legend, and shall also be applicable
to all subsequent holders of this Warrant.
C. Acknowledgment of Continuing Obligation. Upon request of the
registered holder hereof at the time of the exercise of this Warrant but at the
expense of the Company, the Company will, in whole or in part, acknowledge in
writing its continuing obligation to said holder in respect of any rights to
which said holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in
accordance with this Warrant, provided that the failure of said holder to make
any such request shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to
said holder in respect of such rights.
D. Character of Warrant Shares. All shares of the Stock issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant shall, when issued, have been duly authorized and
validly issued and shall be fully paid and non-assessable.
SECTION 5. RESTRICTIONS ON EXERCISE AND TRANSFER.
A. Restrictions in General. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in
this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant shall not be exercisable or
transferable and the related Warrant Shares shall not be transferable except
upon the conditions specified in this Section 5, which conditions are intended,
among other things, to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities
Act in respect of the exercise or transfer of this Warrant or transfer of such
Warrant Shares. The registered holder of this Warrant agrees that it will not
transfer this Warrant, exercise this Warrant or transfer any related Warrant
Shares unless (i) the registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities laws of the Warrants (if Warrants are being transferred) or the
Warrant Shares (if Warrants are being exercised or Warrant Shares are being
transferred) has become effective, or (ii) such transfer or exercise shall be
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any
applicable state securities laws and, if required by the Company at the
Company's expense, counsel to the Company shall deliver to the Company the
opinion of counsel referred to in Section 5.B below.
B. Statement of Intention to Exercise. The registered holder of this
Warrant, by his acceptance hereof, agrees that prior to any exercise of this
Warrant where the exercising Warrantholder requests the Company to issue Stock
certificates in a name other than such
5
Warrantholder, or prior to any transfer of this Warrant or the related Warrant
Shares, said Warrantholder will deliver to the Company a statement setting forth
either said holder's intention with respect to the retention or disposition of
any Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, or the intention of said
holder's prospective transferee with respect to its retention or disposition of
this Warrant or of said Warrant Shares (whichever is involved in such transfer),
in either such case. If required by the Company, counsel to such Warrantholder
shall deliver, at the expense of such Warrantholder, an opinion of counsel as to
the necessity or non-necessity for registration under the Securities Act in
connection with such exercise or transfer. If the proposed exercise or transfer
of this Warrant or the proposed transfer of such Warrant Shares may be effected
without registration under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities
laws of this Warrant or such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, then the
registered holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to exercise or transfer this
Warrant or to transfer such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended
method of disposition specified in the statement delivered by said holder to the
Company. If the proposed exercise or transfer of this Warrant or the proposed
transfer of such Warrant Shares may not be effected without registration under
the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws of this Warrant or
such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, the registered holder of this Warrant
shall not be entitled to exercise or transfer this Warrant or to transfer such
Warrant Shares, as the case may be.
C. Applicabilily of Rule 144. The Company shall file on or before the
date due all reports required (if any) under Section 13 or 15(d), as the case
may be, of the Exchange Act and shall use its best efforts to comply with all
other requirements so as to enable holders of Warrant Shares to transfer such
shares pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
SECTION 6. ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS. The Purchase Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 6. Upon each adjustment
of the Purchase Price, except pursuant to Section 6.F, the registered holder of
this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Purchase Price
resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of the Stock (calculated to
the nearest whole share) obtained by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of the Stock
purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing
the product thereof by the Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment.
A. Constructive Issuances of Stock. For purposes of this Section 6, the
number of shares of Stock deemed "outstanding" shall include the total maximum
number of shares of Stock issuable upon (i) the exercise of any outstanding
rights or options to subscribe for or purchase shares of Stock or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Stock and upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities, whether or not such rights, options or securities
are immediately exercisable, convertible or exchangeable and (ii) the conversion
or exchange of any outstanding security convertible into or exchangeable for
shares of Stock, whether or not such securities are immediately convertible or
exchangeable ("Convertible Securities").
6
B. Stock Dividends. In case at any time the Company shall declare a
dividend or any other distribution upon any capital stock of the Company which
is payable in shares of Stock, then the new Purchase Price in effect immediately
after the declaration of such dividend or distribution shall be the quotient
obtained by dividing (1) the product of (x) the number of shares of Stock
outstanding and deemed (in accordance with Section 6.B) to be outstanding
immediately prior to such declaration, multiplied by (y) the then effective
Purchase Price, by (2) the total number of shares of Stock outstanding and
deemed (in accordance with Section 6.B) to be outstanding immediately after such
declaration. All shares of Stock and all Convertible Securities issuable in
payment of any dividend or other distribution upon the capital stock of the
Company shall be deemed after such declaration to have been issued or sold
without consideration.
C. Extraordinary Dividends and Distributions. In case at any time the
Company shall declare a dividend or any other distribution upon the shares of
Stock payable otherwise than out of current net earnings or earned surplus and
otherwise than in shares of Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable
for shares of Stock, then the new Purchase Price in effect immediately after
such declaration shall be the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such
declaration reduced by an amount equal, in the case of a dividend or
distribution in cash, to the amount of such dividend or distribution payable per
share of Stock or, in the case of any other dividend or distribution, to the
fair value of such dividend or distribution per share of Stock at the time such
dividend or distribution was declared, as determined by the Board of Directors
of the Company. For the purposes of the foregoing, a dividend or distribution
other than in cash shall be considered payable out of current net earnings or
earned surplus only to the extent that such current net earnings or earned
surplus are charged an amount equal to the fair value of such dividend or
distribution at the time of the declaration of such dividend or distribution, as
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. Such reductions shall take
effect as of the date set for the purposes of such dividend or distribution, or,
if a record date is not set, the date as of which the holders of record of
shares of Stock entitled to such dividend or distribution are to be determined.
D. Stock Splits and Reverse Splits. In case at any time the Company
shall subdivide its outstanding shares of Stock into a greater number of shares,
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced to the new Purchase Price and the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant immediately prior to such
subdivision shall be proportionately increased, and conversely, in case at any
time the Company shall combine the outstanding shares of Stock into a smaller
number of shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination shall be proportionately increased to the new Purchase Price and the
number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant
immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately reduced.
E. Reorganizations and Asset Sales. If any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger
of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all
of its assets to another corporation, shall be
7
effected in such a way that holders of shares of Stock shall be entitled to
receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of
Stock, then, prior to and as a condition of such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, lawful and adequate provision
shall be made whereby each registered holder of Warrants shall thereafter have
the right to receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified
herein and in lieu of the shares of Stock immediately theretofore receivable
upon the exercise of such Warrants, such shares of Stock, securities or assets
as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of
outstanding shares of Stock equal to the number of shares of Stock immediately
theretofore so receivable had such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger or sale not taken place, and in any such case appropriate
provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such holder
to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions
for adjustment of the Purchase Price and of the number of shares issuable upon
exercise and for the registration of the Registrable Securities to the extent
and as provided in Section 5, shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may
be, in relation to any shares of Stock, securities or assets thereafter
deliverable upon the exercise of such Warrants. The Company shall not effect any
such consolidation, merger or sale unless prior to or simultaneously with the
consummation thereof the survivor or successor corporation (if other than the
Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument, executed and
delivered to each registered holder of the Warrants, the obligation to deliver
to such holder such shares of Stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with
the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to receive, and containing
the express assumption of such successor corporation of the due and punctual
performance and observance of every provision of this Warrant to be performed
and observed by the Company and of all liabilities and obligations of the
Company hereunder.
F. Sale or Issuance of Stock or Securities Convertible into Stock. In
case the Company shall, at any time, issue or sell any shares of Stock or
securities convertible into Stock other than pursuant to stock options granted
to officers, directors or employees of the Company pursuant to a stock incentive
plan approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (a "Diluting Issuance"),
the Company shall, immediately after such Diluting Issuance, grant and issue to
the holder of this Warrant such number of additional stock purchase warrants so
that after such Diluting Issuance, the holder of this Warrant would be entitled
to purchase the same percentage of Stock (on a fully diluted basis in accordance
with Section 6.B) after such Diluting Issuance as such holder was entitled to
purchase immediately prior to such Diluting Issuance.
G. Accountants' Opinion. Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price,
and in the event of any change in the rights of the holder of this Warrant by
reason of other events herein set forth, then and in each such case, the Company
will promptly obtain an opinion of a firm of independent certified public
accountants selected by the Company's Board of Directors, stating the adjusted
Purchase Price and the new number of shares so issuable, or specifying the other
shares of Stock, securities or assets and the amount thereof receivable as a
result of such change in rights, and setting forth in reasonable detail the
method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. The
Company will promptly mail a copy of such accountants'
8
opinion to the registered holder of this Warrant. The opinion of such firm of
independent public accountants shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness
of the computation with respect to any such adjustment of the Purchase Price and
any such change in the number of such shares so issuable.
SECTION 7. OPTIONAL REDUCTION OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. The Company shall
have the right, at any time or from time to time, at its election, to reduce,
pro rata, the Purchase Price then in effect with respect to all the Warrants
then outstanding for such period or periods of time as a majority of the
disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company may determine. In
each such case, the Company shall deliver to all Warrantholders a certificate of
an officer of the Company stating the election of the Company to reduce the
Purchase Price in accordance with this Section 7 and specifying (i) the Purchase
Price so reduced, (ii) the period in which such reduced Purchase Price shall be
in effect, which period shall commence not less than 30 days after such
certificate is delivered to the Warrantholders; and (iii) that such election is
irrevocable during such period. Failure to receive such certificate, or any
defect therein, shall not affect the validity of the reduction of the Purchase
Price during such period.
SECTION 8. SPECIAL AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company covenants and
agrees that:
A. Will Reserve Shares. The Company will authorize, reserve and have
available for issuance at all times, free from preemptive rights, that number of
shares of Stock which is deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants, and the
Company will have at all times any other rights or privileges provided for
therein sufficient to enable it at any time to fulfill all its obligations
hereunder.
B. Will Avoid Certain Actions. The Company will not, by amendment of
its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, issue or sale of securities or otherwise, avoid
or take any action which would have the effect of avoiding the observance or
performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the
Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all of the
provisions of this Warrant and in taking all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the rights of the registered holders of this
Warrant against dilution or other impairment and, in particular, will not permit
the par value, if any, of any share of Stock to be greater than the then
effective Purchase Price.
C. Will Not Issue Certain Stock. Except as disclosed in the Private
Placement Memorandum, the Company will not issue any capital stock of any class
which has rights to be preferred as to dividends or as to the distribution of
assets upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up,
unless such rights shall be limited to a fixed sum or percentage of par value in
respect of participation in dividends and in the distribution of such assets.
9
D. Will Secure Governmental Approvals. The Company will obtain the
approval of any governmental authority necessary or advisable under any federal
law (other than the Securities Act) or under any state law before the Warrant
Shares may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant.
E. Will Apply for Quotation on OTC Bulletin Board. The Company (through
a sponsoring market maker) shall, at its expense, as soon as practicable after
meeting the eligibility requirements obtain and maintain approval for quotation
of its securities on the OTC Bulletin Board.
F. Will List on Securities Exchange. The Company shall, at its expense
as soon as practicable after it qualifies to do so, obtain and maintain the

Exchange Act) or the quotation on the National Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ") upon official notice of issuance of all
shares of the Stock receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants at the time
outstanding and maintain the listing or quotation of such shares after their
issuance, and the Company will so list on such national securities exchange or
NASDAQ, as the case may be, will register under the Exchange Act (and any
similar state statute then in effect) and will maintain such listing of any
other securities that at any time are issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.
G. Will Enter into Separate Warrant Agreement . The Company shall, if
requested by the Warrantholders so disposing of such Warrants, execute and
deliver to a bank or trust company selected by the Company and reasonably
satisfactory to such Warrantholders, as Warrant Agent (herein called the
"Warrant Agent"), a separate warrant agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to such Warrantholders, providing for the issuance of warrants upon
countersignature by the Warrant Agent and for the registration, transfer,
exchange and exercise of warrants, and containing the substance of the terms and
provisions of the respective Warrants. Thereafter any Warrant may be exchanged
for a warrant or warrants issued under said separate warrant agreement
evidencing the same rights as the Warrants surrendered for exchange, and
thereafter any reference in Section 5 hereof to "this Warrant", "Warrants",
"Warrant" or any similar term shall be deemed to include the warrants so issued
under such separate warrant agreement. The Company shall pay all costs and
expenses in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of such
separate warrant agreement, including without limitation the fees and expenses
of the Warrant Agent.
H. Will Bind Successors. This Warrant will be binding upon any
corporation succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of
all or substantially all of the Company's assets.
I. Will Give Notices Of Certain Events. The Company will review its
stock ledgers, stock transfer books and other corporate records periodically
(and not less than once in each calendar quarter) in order to determine whether
any Warrantholder is or shall have become, directly or indirectly, the owner of
record of more than such percentage of any class of its equity
10
securities (as defined in the Exchange Act) as shall cause such Warrantholder to
be required to make any filings or declarations to the Company, the Commission
or any national securities exchange pursuant to the provisions of the Exchange
Act, and the Company will give prompt notice to such Warrantholder whenever it
shall have determined, upon the basis of the information disclosed by any such
review, that such Warrantholder is or has become such a holder, which notice
shall also specify the information upon which the Company bases such
determination, provided, that the Company will give such notice only once in
each fiscal year to any Warrantholder whose percentage of ownership of record of
the Company's equity securities has not changed since the date of the giving of
the immediately preceding notice.
