WARRANT AGREEMENT, dated as of ______ __, 1999 (the "Effective Date"),
between EDUCATIONAL VIDEO CONFERENCING, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), and PRIME CHARTER LTD., a Delaware corporation ("Prime Charter").
The Company proposes to sell to Prime Charter and/or its designee(s)
warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase an aggregate of _______ shares (the
"Warrant Shares") of the Company's common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the
"Common Stock"), in connection with a public offering by the Company of ______
shares of Common Stock (the "Offering") pursuant to a registration statement
(the "Registration Statement") on Form SB-2 (File No. 333-66085) filed by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual undertakings contained
herein, the Company and Prime Charter hereby agree as follows:
1. Issuance of Warrants. Concurrently with the initial closing (the
"Closing") under the Underwriting Agreement of even date herewith between the
Company and Prime Charter, as representative of the several underwriters named
therein (the "Underwriting Agreement"), related to the Offering, the Company
shall issue, sell and deliver the Warrants to Prime Charter and/or, at Prime
Charter's direction, to one or more underwriters or other members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. that participate in the
Offering and/or the bona fide officers or partners of Prime Charter or such
other participants (each a "Permitted Designee") for a purchase price of $.001
per Warrant. Each certificate for Warrants (a "Warrant Certificate") shall be
substantially in the form of Annex A attached hereto.
2. Registration. The Company shall maintain a register for the
Warrants at its principal executive offices for the registration of the issuance
and transfer of Warrants. The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered
holder of any Warrant (the "Holder") as the owner in fact thereof for all
purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or
interest in such Warrant on the part of any other person. The Warrants shall be
registered initially in the name of Prime Charter and/or one or more Permitted
Designees in such denominations as Prime Charter may request not less than two
business days prior to the scheduled date of the Closing as set forth in the
Underwriting Agreement.
3. Transfer and Exchange of Warrants. Any Warrant shall be
transferable only upon surrender thereof at the Company's principal executive
offices duly endorsed by its Holder or by such Holder's duly authorized attorney
or representative, or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment
or authority to transfer. Upon any registration of transfer, the Company shall
deliver a new Warrant or Warrants to the persons entitled thereto. In addition,
a Warrant Certificate may be exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for
another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of different denominations,
of like tenor and representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a like
number of Warrant Shares upon surrender at the Company's principal executive
offices. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrants may not be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of until after the
first anniversary of the Effective Date, except to a Permitted Designee, by
operation of law or by reason of a reorganization of the Company. Thereafter,
the Warrants and any Warrant Shares shall be freely transferable, subject only
to compliance with applicable securities laws.
4. Exercise of Warrants.
4.1 Exercise Price and Term. Each Warrant shall entitle the Holder
thereof to purchase from the Company one Warrant Share at a purchase price per
share of $ ____ (the "Exercise Price"), as such purchase price and number of
Warrant Shares may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of
Section 8 hereof, payable in full at the time of exercise of such Warrant. The
Warrants may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time
during the four-year period commencing on the first anniversary of the Effective
Date and ending at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth anniversary of
the Effective Date (the "Expiration Date"). After the Expiration Date, any
unexercised Warrants shall be void and all rights of the Holders with respect
thereto shall cease.
4.2 Payment of Exercise Price. At the election of any Holder, the
aggregate Exercise Price for any Warrants being exercised may be paid: (a) in
cash in the amount of the aggregate Exercise Price then in effect for the number
of Warrants being exercised, (b) by surrender to the Company of shares of Common
Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined below) on the date of
exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price then in effect for the number of
Warrants being exercised, (c) by a surrender of Warrants covering a number of
Warrant Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value, net of the applicable
aggregate Exercise Price therefor, equal to the aggregate Exercise Price then in
effect for the number of Warrants being exercised, or (d) by a combination of
the aforementioned methods of payment. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Fair
Market Value" per share of Common Stock on a given date shall be: (i) if the
Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or included on the
Nasdaq National Market, the closing price per share of Common Stock on such date
(or, if there was no trading on such date, on the next preceding day on which
there was trading); (ii) if the Common Stock is not listed on a national
securities exchange or included on the Nasdaq National Market, the average of
the closing bid and asked quotations per share of Common Stock as reported by
Nasdaq (or the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or any similar
organization) on such date (or, if there were no quotations for the Common Stock
on such date, on the next preceding day on which there were quotations) as
provided by such organization; and (iii) if the Common Stock is not traded on a
national securities exchange or included on the Nasdaq National Market and bid
and asked quotations are not provided by Nasdaq (or the National Quotation
Bureau Incorporated or any similar organization), as determined by the agreement
of the parties in good faith or, in the absence of such agreement, as determined
pursuant to arbitration under the auspices of the American Arbitration
Association.
4.3 Exercise Procedure. Warrants may be exercised by their surrender
at the Company's principal executive offices, with the Election to Purchase form
attached thereto duly completed and executed, accompanied by payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares to be purchased upon such
exercise. Payment for the Warrant Shares shall be made (a) if payment is to be
made in cash, by a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the
Company or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company, (b) if
payment is to be made through a surrender of shares of Common Stock, by
surrender of certificates duly endorsed for transfer (with all transfer taxes
paid or provided for), and (c) if payment is to be made by a surrender of
Warrants, by surrender of certificates representing such Warrants. Promptly
after the exercise of any Warrants, upon compliance with Section 5 hereof, the
Company shall issue a certificate or certificates, for the number of full
Warrant Shares to which the Holder thereof is entitled, registered in accordance
with the instructions set forth in the Election to Purchase, together with cash
as provided in Section 10 of this Warrant Agreement payable in respect of
fractional shares and (if applicable) a new Warrant Certificate or
2
Certificates representing all remaining unexercised Warrants. All Warrant Shares
shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and free of
preemptive rights, and free from all liens and charges other than those created
by the Holder. Upon compliance with Section 5 hereof, certificates representing
such Warrant Shares and remaining unexercised Warrants shall be issued by the
Company in such names and denominations, and shall be delivered to such persons,
as are specified by written instructions of the Holder.
4.4 Record Holder. Each person in whose name any such certificate for
Warrant Shares is issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the
holder of record of the Warrant Shares represented thereby on the date upon
which such Warrants were surrendered for exercise, accompanied by payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price as aforesaid, irrespective of the date of issuance or
delivery of such certificate for Warrant Shares; provided, however, that if, at
the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the aggregate Exercise
Price, the transfer books for the Common Stock or any other class of stock
purchasable upon the exercise of such Warrants shall be closed, the certificates
for the Warrant Shares or for shares of such other class of stock in respect of
which such Warrants are then exercisable shall be issuable as of the date on
which such books shall next be opened (whether before or after the Expiration
Date) and, until such date, the Company shall be under no duty to deliver any
certificate for such Warrant Shares or for shares of such other class of stock;
and, provided, further, that the transfer books of record, unless otherwise
required by law, shall not be closed at any one time for a period longer than 20
days.
5. Payment of Taxes. The Company shall promptly pay all documentary
stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of Warrants or the issuance of Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of any Warrants, except that any transfer taxes payable
in connection with the issuance of Warrants or Warrant Shares in any name other
than that of the Holder of the Warrants surrendered shall be paid by such Holder
and, if any such tax would otherwise be payable by the Company, no such issuance
or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issuance
has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or it is established to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Company that any such tax has been paid.
6. Replacement Warrants. In case any Warrant Certificate shall be
mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue and deliver in
exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant
Certificate or in lieu of and substitution for the lost, stolen or destroyed
Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an
equivalent right or interest, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant
Certificate, together with an appropriate agreement regarding indemnification of
the Company relating to the issuance of a replacement Warrant Certificate.
7. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available for issuance the number of its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock or other stock sufficient to permit the exercise
in full of the Warrants and any transfer agent for the Common Stock or other
stock issuable upon the exercise of Warrants shall be directed at all times to
reserve such number as shall be sufficient for such purpose. The Company will
keep a copy of this Warrant Agreement on file with each such transfer agent and
will supply such transfer agent with duly executed stock certificates for such
purpose and will provide or otherwise make available any cash that may be
payable as provided in Section 10 hereof. All Warrants surrendered upon the
exercise thereof shall be canceled. After the Expiration Date, no shares shall
be subject to reservation in respect of any unexercised Warrants.

8. Adjustments.
8.1 Adjustment of Exercise Price.
8.1.1 Initial Exercise Price. The Exercise Price, which
initially will be as provided in Section 4.1, shall be adjusted and readjusted
from time to time as provided in this Section 8.1 and, as so adjusted or
readjusted, shall remain in effect until a further adjustment or readjustment
thereof is required by this Section 8.1.
8.1.2 Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In case
the Company, at any time after the date of the Closing, shall issue additional
shares of Common Stock for no consideration in connection with a dividend, stock
split or other distribution on the Common Stock (including, without limitation,
any distribution of Common Stock by way of spin-off, reclassification or
corporate rearrangement), then, and in each such case, the Exercise Price shall
be reduced concurrently with such issuance to a price (calculated to the nearest
cent) determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction of which:
(a) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, and
(b) the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such issuance.
8.1.3 Dividends and Distributions. In case the Company, at any
time after the Effective Date, shall pay or make a dividend or other
distribution on the Common Stock (including, without limitation, any
distribution of stock (other than Common Stock) or other securities, including
securities that are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common
Stock, property or options by way of dividend, spin-off, reclassification or
corporate rearrangement) then, and in each such case, the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for
the determination of the holders of the Common Stock entitled to receive such
dividend or other distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of
business on such record date, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent)
determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction of which:
(a) the numerator shall be the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the close of business on such record date minus the value
of such dividend or other distribution (as determined in good faith by the Board
of Directors of the Company) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and
(b) the denominator shall be such Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the close of business on such record date;
provided, however, that no such reduction shall be made pursuant to this Section
8.1.3 for a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock (which is subject to
Section 8.1.2) or payable in cash or other property and declared out of the
earned surplus (i.e., retained earnings) of the Company (excluding any portion
thereof resulting from a revaluation of property) or which is declared but is
then not paid or made. For purposes of the foregoing, a dividend or distribution
payable other than in cash shall be considered payable out of earned surplus
only to the extent that such earned surplus is charged an
4
amount equal to the fair value of such dividend or distribution at the time of
payment as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. If
a dividend or distribution covered under this Section 8.1.3 is declared prior to
the Expiration Date but not paid by such date, the Expiration Date shall be
extended until the payment thereof
8.1.4 Adjustments for Combinations, etc. In case the outstanding
shares of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or
otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall be
proportionately increased concurrently with the effectiveness of such
combination or consolidation.
8.1.5 Minimum Adjustment of Exercise Price. If the amount of any
adjustment of the Exercise Price required pursuant to this Section 8.1 would be
less than $.01, such amount shall be carried forward, and an adjustment with
respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent
adjustment that, together with such amount an any other amount or amounts so
carried forward, shall aggregate at least $.01.
8.1.6 Minimum Exercise Price. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth herein, no adjustment provided for in this Section 8.1 shall
reduce the Exercise Price below the par or stated value of the Common Stock and
the Company shall have no obligation to change such value to permit a further
reduction of the Exercise Price; provided, however, that, except in the event of
any transactions of the type contemplated under Section 8.1.4 hereof, the
Company agrees not to change the par or stated value of the Common Stock.
8.2 Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares. Upon each adjustment of
the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.1, the number of
Warrant Shares that the Holder of a Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon
exercise thereof shall be adjusted to equal that number of Warrant Shares
determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
such Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment of the Exercise Price by a
fraction of which:
(a) the numerator shall be the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment of the Exercise Price, and
(b) the denominator shall be the Exercise Price in effect
immediately following such adjustment of the Exercise Price.
8.3 Notice, Evidence of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price is
adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly cause a notice setting
forth the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number of Warrant Shares,
issuable upon exercise of each Warrant to be mailed to the Holders, at their
last addresses appearing in the Warrant register, and shall cause a copy thereof
to be mailed to each transfer agent for the Common Stock. The Company shall
retain a firm of independent public accountants of recognized standing selected
by the Board of Directors (who may be the regular accountants employed by the
Company) to make any computation required by this Section 8, and a certificate
signed by such firm shall accompany said notice and shall be conclusive evidence
of the correctness of such adjustments.
5
9. Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets, Reorganization, etc.
9.1 General Provisions. In case the Company at any time after the
Effective Date (a) shall consolidate with or merge into any other person and not
be the continuing or surviving person of such consolidation or merger, or (b)
shall permit any other person to consolidate with or merge into the Company and
the Company shall be the continuing or surviving person but, in connection with
such consolidation or merger, the Common Stock or other securities then issuable
upon exercise of the Warrants shall be changed into or exchanged for cash, stock
or other securities or property, or (c) shall transfer, directly or indirectly,
all or substantially all its properties and assets to any other person, or (d)
shall effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock or
other securities then issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (other than a
capital reorganization or reclassification resulting in an adjustment of the
Exercise Price as provided in Section 8.1), then, and in the case of each such
transaction, the Company shall make proper provision such that, upon the terms
and in the manner provided in this Warrant Agreement, the Holder of each
Warrant, upon the exercise thereof at any time after the consummation of such
transaction, shall be entitled to receive, at the Exercise Price then in effect,
in lieu of the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such exercise
immediately prior to such transaction, the amount of cash, stock or other
securities or property to which such Holder would have been entitled if such
Warrant had been exercised in full immediately prior to such transaction,
subject to adjustments subsequent to such transaction as nearly equivalent as
possible to the adjustments provided for in Section 8 and this Section 9.
9.2 Assumption of Obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained in
this Warrant Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not effect any of the
transactions described in Section 9.1(a), (b), (c) or (d) unless, prior to the
consummation thereof, the person (other than the Company) that may be required
to deliver any cash, stock or other securities or property upon exercise of any
Warrant as provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to the
Holders of the Warrants, (a) the obligations of the Company under this Warrant
Agreement and the Warrants (and if the Company shall survive the consummation of
any such transaction, such assumption shall not release the Company from any
continuing obligations of the Company under this Warrant Agreement and the
Warrants) and (b) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such cash, stock or
other securities or other property as such Holder may be entitled to receive in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 9; provided, however, that this
Section 9.2 shall not be applicable to any transaction described in Section 9.1
if all such cash, stock, property or other consideration receivable upon
consummation of such transaction is delivered to the Company at such time. Such
person shall similarly deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel to the
effect that this Warrant Agreement and the Warrants shall continue in full force
and effect after any such transaction and that the terms hereof (including,
without limitation all of the provisions of Section 8 and this Section 9.2) and
thereof shall be applicable to the cash, stock or other securities or property
that such person may be required to deliver upon any exercise of the Warrants.
9.3 No Dilution or Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of
its certificate of incorporation or by-laws or through any consolidation,
merger, reorganization, transfer of assets, dissolution, issue, sale, grant or
assumption of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid
the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant Agreement or
the Warrants, but will at all times, whether or not requested to do so, in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the
Holders against dilution or other impairment. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Company agrees that it shall take all such reasonable action
as may be necessary
6
or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully
paid and non-assessable shares of stock upon the exercise of all Warrants from
time to time outstanding.
10. Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue
fractions of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any Warrants. If more
than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise at the same time by the same
Holder, the number of Warrant Shares that shall be issuable upon the exercise
thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares
purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a share
of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 10, be issuable
on the exercise of any Warrant, the Company shall purchase such fraction for an
amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the Fair Market Value of one share
of Common Stock on the date of exercise.
11. Restrictions on Dispositions. The Warrants and the Warrant Shares
have been registered under the Act pursuant to the Registration Statement;
however, Prime Charter acknowledges that the Warrants and the Warrant Shares may
not be transferred except pursuant to (i) a post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement, (ii) an effective registration statement under the Act
or (iii) any available exemption from registration under the Act permitting such
disposition of securities and upon delivery to the Company of an opinion of
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Company, that such exemption
from registration is available. Prime Charter agrees that the certificates
representing the Warrants and Warrant Shares shall bear an appropriate
restrictive legend to such effect.
12. Registration Rights.
12.1 Demand Registration. Upon written request of the Holder(s) of at
least a majority of the then outstanding Warrants and Warrant Shares made at any
time within the period commencing one year and ending five years after the
Effective Date, the Company shall file within a reasonable period of time and,
in any event within the time period provided in Section 12.3(a) after receipt of
such written request on one occasion, a registration statement (or a
post-effective amendment to a registration statement) under the Act registering
the Warrant Shares. Within 15 days after receiving any such notice, the Company
shall give notice to the other Holders of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares
advising that the Company is proceeding with such registration statement or
post-effective amendment (the "Demand Registration Statement"), and offering to
include therein the Warrant Shares of such other Holders. The Company shall not
be obligated to include the Warrant Shares of any such other Holder in such
registration unless such other Holder shall accept such offer by notice in
writing to the Company within 15 days after receipt of such notice from the
Company. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file and cause the
Demand Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable and
to remain effective for the period of time provided in Section 12.3, to reflect
in the Demand Registration Statement financial statements that are prepared in
accordance with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act, and to amend or supplement the
Demand Registration Statement to reflect any facts or events arising that,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a material change in the information
set forth in the Demand Registration Statement to enable any Holders of Warrants
to exercise warrants and/or sell the underlying Warrant Shares during such time
period provided in Section 12.3. If any registration pursuant to this Section
12.1 is an underwritten offering, the Holders of a majority of the Warrant
Shares to be included in such registration will select an underwriter (or
managing underwriter if such offering should be syndicated) approved by the
Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding anything
in this Warrant Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to
postpone for a reasonable period of time (not exceeding 60 days in any 12-month
period) the filing or effectiveness of the Demand Registration Statement
otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it pursuant to
7
this Section 12.1 if the Company's Board of Directors determines, in its
reasonable discretion, that such registration and offering would adversely
affect any financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other material
transaction involving the Company and the Company promptly gives the Holders
written notice of such determination specifying the grounds therefor and an
estimate of the anticipated delay. If the Company shall so postpone the filing
of the Demand Registration Statement, a majority-in-interest of the requesting
Holders shall have the right to withdraw the request for demand registration by
giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after receipt of the notice
of postponement.
12.2 Piggyback Registration. If, at any time within the period
commencing one year and ending seven years after the Effective Date, the Company
proposes to register any voting equity securities under the Act in a primary
registration on behalf of the Company and/or in a secondary registration on
behalf of holders of such securities, and the registration form to be used may
be used for registration of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall give prompt
written notice (which, in the case of a registration pursuant to the exercise of
demand registration rights other than those provided in Section 12.1, shall be
within 10 business days after the Company's receipt of notice of such exercise
and, in any event, shall be at least 30 days prior to the date of such filing)
to the Holders of Warrants and/or Warrant Shares (regardless of whether some of
the Holders shall have theretofore availed themselves of the demand rights
provided in Section 12.1) of its intention to effect registration and shall
offer to include in such registration such number of Warrant Shares with respect
to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within
10 business days after receipt of such, notice from, the Company upon generally
the same terms and conditions as the person or persons for whom such
registration is being effected has agreed to. This Section 12.2 is not
applicable to any registration statement to be filed by the Company on Forms S-4
or S-8 or any successor forms. The Company shall not be obligated to cause to be
effective any registration statement as to which it has given notice to the
Holders of Warrants and/or Warrant Shares and shall have discretion to withdraw
any such registration without liability to Holders of Warrants and/or Warrant
Shares.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter of the
offering shall determine in good faith and advise the Company in writing that
the inclusion of the Warrant Shares and other securities being offered in such
registration would materially and adversely affect the marketability of the
offering, then the Company and the managing underwriter may reduce the number of
Warrant Shares to be registered on a pro rata basis proportionate to the
reduction of all other holders of securities participating in such registration
pursuant to the exercise of piggyback registration rights. In such event, the
Company may reduce the number of Warrant Shares to be registered to zero as long
as no other securities are registered in such registration statement pursuant to
an exercise of piggyback registration rights.
12.3 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required
by the provisions of this Section 12 to use its reasonable best efforts to
effect the registration of any Warrant Shares under the Act, the Company will,
as expeditiously as possible:
(a) in connection with any registration pursuant to Section
12.1, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement (which shall
be filed as soon as practical after receipt of requisite requests from Holders
of Warrant Shares for registration, but not more than 90 days in the case of a
registration statement on Form S-1 or SB-2, or 45 days in the case of any other
form) with respect to the Warrant Shares and use its reasonable best efforts to
cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period
of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as
8
hereinafter provided);
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for
the period specified in Section 12.3(a) and comply with the provisions of the
Act with respect to the disposition of all Warrant Shares covered by such
registration statement in accordance with the Holders' intended method of
disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period (so long as
such registration statement was filed pursuant to Section 12.1);
(c) furnish to each seller of Warrant Shares and to each
underwriter such number of copies of the registration statement and the
prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such
persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or other
disposition of the Warrant Shares covered by such registration statement;
(d) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the
Warrant Shares covered by such registration statement under such securities or
blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as each seller shall request, and do any and
all other acts and things which may be necessary under such securities or blue
sky laws to enable such seller to consummate the public sale or other
disposition in such jurisdictions of the securities to be sold by such seller,
except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify to
do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is not
qualified or to file any general consent to service of process;
(e) use its reasonable best efforts to list the Warrant Shares
covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange or automated
quotation system on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed;
(f) immediately notify each seller of Warrant Shares and each
underwriter under such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus
relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act, of the happening of
any event of which the Company has knowledge as result of which the prospectus
contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, included an untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in
light of the circumstances then existing;
(g) enter into such agreements (including an underwriting
agreement, if applicable) and take all such other actions reasonably necessary
in connection therewith in order to expedite and facilitate the disposition of
the Warrant Shares to be registered;
(h) whether or not the offering is underwritten and at the
request of any seller of Warrant Shares, furnish: (i) such representations and
warranties to such seller and the underwriters, if any, as are customary in
primary underwritten offerings, (ii) an opinion of counsel representing the
Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters, if
any, and to such seller of Warrant Shares, dated the effective date of such
registration statement and in form and substance as is customarily given to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering and to such other effect as
reasonably may be requested by counsel for the underwriters or by such seller of
Warrant Shares or its counsel and (iii) a letter dated such effective date from
the independent public accountants retained by the Company, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and to such seller of Warrant Shares, in form and
substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering, and such letter shall
additionally
9
cover such other financial matters (including information as to the period
ending no more than five business days prior to the date of such letter) with
respect to such registration as such underwriters reasonably may request;
(i) make available upon reasonable notice for inspection by each
seller of Warrant Shares, any underwriter participating in any distribution
pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other
agent retained by such seller of Warrant Shares or underwriter, all financial
and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company,
and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all
information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney,
accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement; and
(j) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its
securityholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than 18 months
after the effective date of the registration statement, an earnings statement
covering the period of at least 12 months beginning with the first full month
after the effective date of such registration statement, which earnings
statements shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act.
For purposes of Section 12.3(a) and (b), the period of
distribution of Warrant Shares in a firm commitment underwritten public offering
shall be deemed to extend until each underwriter has completed the distribution
of all securities purchased by it, and the period of distribution of Warrant
Shares in any other registration shall be deemed to extend until the earlier of
the sale of all Warrant Shares covered thereby and 120 days after the effective
date thereof.
In connection with each registration hereunder the sellers of
Warrant Shares will furnish to the Company in writing such information with
respect to themselves and the proposed distribution by them as reasonably shall
be necessary and shall be requested by the Company in order to comply with

and each other person, if any, who controls such selling Holder of Warrant
Shares or underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), against any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and expenses, joint for several, to which such selling
Holder, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement
under which such Warrant Shares were registered under the Act pursuant to
Section 12, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or
any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
will pay or reimburse each such selling Holder, each such underwriter and each
such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the Company (i) will not be liable
in any such case if and to the extent that (A) any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information
furnished by any such selling Holder, any such underwriter or any such
controlling person, as the case may be, in writing specifically for use in such
registration statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement or (B) in respect to
such statement, alleged statement omission or alleged omission with respect to
which such loss, claim, damage or liability directly relates, the final
prospectus for such registration statement corrected in all material respects
such statement alleged statement, omission or alleged omission and a copy of
such final prospectus was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder (or
otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable law or regulation) at or prior
to the confirmation of the sale of Warrant Shares of such Holder and (ii) will
not be liable for amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the
Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(b) In the event of a registration of any Warrant Shares under
the Act pursuant to this Section 12, each Holder selling Warrant Shares
thereunder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each
director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any
underwriter within the meaning of the Act, against all losses, claims, damages
or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer,
director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Act or
otherwise, but only to the extent that such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect
11
thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
pertaining to such selling Holder, as such, furnished in writing to the Company
by such selling Holder specifically for use in such registration statement under
which such Warrant Shares was registered under the Act pursuant to this Section
12, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereof, and will pay or reimburse the Company and each
such officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or
other expenses reasonably by them in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss, claim, damage liability or action or (ii) any statement, alleged
statement, omission or alleged omission made by the Company with respect to
which such loss, claim, damage or liability directly relates, if the final
prospectus for such registration statement corrected in all material respects
such statement, alleged statement, omission or alleged omission and a copy of
such final prospectus was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder (or
otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable law or regulation) at or prior
to the confirmation of the sale of Warrant Shares of such Holder, provided,
however, that (A) the liability of each selling Holder hereunder shall be
limited to the proportion of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense
which is equal to the proportion that the public offering price of the Warrant
Shares sold by such selling Holder under such registration statement bears to
the total public offering price of all securities sold thereunder, but not in
any event to exceed the net proceeds received by such selling Holder from the
sale of Warrant Shares covered by such registration statement and (B) no selling
Holder shall be liable for amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent
of such selling Holder, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of
written notice of any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding,
such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in
writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not
relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party,
except to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such
omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party
and the indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in
and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be
liable to such indemnified party under this Section 12.6(c) for any legal or
other professional expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party, in the defense of
any such claim or litigation against an indemnified party, shall consent to
entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation, unless such indemnified party shall otherwise consent in writing. An
indemnifying party who elects to assume the defense of a claim shall not be
obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties
indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim (in addition
to any local counsel), unless any indemnified party reasonably concludes that
there may be legal defenses available to such indemnified party with respect to
such claim which are different from or additional to those available to any
other of such indemnified parties or that a conflict of interest may exist
between such indemnified party and any other of such
12
indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying
party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such
additional counsel or counsels.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
any case in which either (i) any Holder exercising registration rights under
this Section 12, or any controlling person of any such Holder, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 12.6, but it is judicially determined
(by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction
and following the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right
of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case
notwithstanding the fact that this Section 12.6 provides for indemnification in
such case or (ii) contribution under the Act may be required on the part of any
such Holder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which
indemnification is provided under this Section 12.6, then, and in each such
case, the Company and such Holder shall contribute to the aggregate losses,
claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution
from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect both the relative
benefit received by such Holder and the relative fault of the Company and such
Holder; provided, however, that, in any such case, (A) no Holder will be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all
such Warrant Shares offered by it pursuant to such registration statement and
(B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within, the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any
person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For
purposes of the preceding sentence, the relative benefit received by the Holder
of Warrant Shares shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the public
offering price of its Warrant Shares offered by the registration statement bears
to the public offering price of all securities offered by such registration
statement; and the relative fault of the Company and such Holder shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or omission of a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or by the Holder and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.
12.7 Securities Law Compliance. The Company covenants that it will
timely file all reports required to be filed by it under the Act and the
Exchange Act. So long as the Company is subject to the periodic reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act, the Company covenants to make publicly
available such information as may be necessary to permit the sale of Warrant
Shares without registration under the Act pursuant to the exemption provided by
Rule 144 under the Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, or any
similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request
of any Holder of Warrants or Warrant Shares at any time, if applicable the
Company will deliver to such Holder or such Holder's prospective transferee such
information as may be necessary to permit the sale of Warrants or Warrant Shares
pursuant to Rule 144A under the Act, as such rule may be amended from time to
time. Upon request of any Holder of Warrants or Warrant Shares, the Company will
deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with
such information requirements.
13. Notices to Holders.
13.1 Nothing contained in this Warrant Agreement or in any of the
Warrants shall be construed as conferring upon the Holders thereof as such the

directors of the Company or any other matter or any other rights whatsoever as
stockholders of the Company.

Common Stock,

the stockholders entitled to such distribution or issuance or to vote upon such
proposed consolidation, merger, liquidation, sale or conveyance to each Holder
at its address appearing on the Warrant register, but failure to mail or to
receive such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not
affect the validity of any action taken in connection with such distribution,
issuance, consolidation, merger, liquidation, sale or conveyance.

to be given or made by any Holder to or on the Company shall be sufficiently
given or made if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by

this Warrant Agreement, of each Warrant issued hereunder and of the respective
terms and provisions thereof shall be governed by the laws of the State of New
York without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.
