Execution Copy
WARRANT AGREEMENT
This WARRANT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") dated September 29,
1997, is made by and between Healthy Planet Products, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx (the "Warrantholder").
Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement between the Company
and the Warrantholder dated the date hereof, the Company has agreed to issue
warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase an aggregate of 300,000 shares ("Warrant
Shares") of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Common
Shares") to the Warrantholder as follows:
(i) Warrants to purchase 100,000 of the Warrant Shares at
an exercise price of $4.00 per share;
(ii) Warrants to purchase an additional 100,000 of the
Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $4.25 per share; and
(iii) Warrants to purchase an additional 100,000 of the
Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $4.50 per share.
Each of the Warrants referred to in (i), (ii) and (iii) above and/or the Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants is separately referred to herein
as a "Warrant Tranche."
In consideration of the foregoing and for the purpose of defining
the terms and provisions of the Warrants and the respective rights and
obligations thereunder, the Company and the Warrantholder, for value received,
hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Form of Warrant Certificates; Transferability of
Warrants; Legend on Warrant Shares.
1.1 Form of Warrant Certificate. The Warrants shall be evidenced
by Warrant certificates substantially as set forth in Appendix I attached
hereto. One or more Warrant certificates will be issued with respect to each of
the separate Warrant Tranches. The Warrant certificates shall be executed on
behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, President or a Vice
President, under its corporate seal reproduced thereon, and attested by its
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary. A Warrant certificate bearing the signature
of an individual who was at any time the proper officer of the Company shall
bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual shall have ceased to hold
such office prior to the delivery of such Warrant certificate or did not hold
such office on the date of this
Agreement. Each Warrant certificate shall be numbered and registered on the
books of the Company when it is issued, and shall be dated as of the date of
signature thereof by the Company either upon initial issuance or upon division,
exchange, substitution or transfer.
1.2 Transfer. The Warrant certificate shall be transferable only
on the books of the Company maintained at its principal office in Petaluma,
California, or wherever its principal executive offices may then be located upon
delivery thereof duly endorsed by the Warrantholder or its 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 execute and deliver a new Warrant certificate to the person
entitled thereto. All transfers shall be made subject to the provisions of
Section 13 hereof. In the event the Warrants or any portion thereof is
transferred, the subsequent holder thereof shall have no greater rights than
those afforded the Warrantholder hereunder.
1.3 Division of Warrants. Subject to all Federal and state
securities laws, a Warrant certificate may be divided or combined, upon request
to the Company by the Warrantholder, into a certificate or certificates
representing the right to purchase the same aggregate number of Warrant Shares.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term "Warrantholder" shall include
any transferee or transferees of the Warrants pursuant to this subsection 1.3,
and the term "Warrants" shall include any and all Warrants outstanding pursuant
to this Agreement, including those evidenced by a certificate or certificates
issued upon division, exchange, substitution or transfer pursuant to this
Agreement.
1.4 Legend on Warrant Shares. Each certificate for Warrant Shares
initially issued upon exercise of the Warrant, unless at the time of exercise
such Warrant Shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), shall bear the following legend:
"The Shares represented by this Certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
and may not be sold, exchanged, hypothecated or transferred in any
manner in the absence of such registration or an exemption therefrom.
The Shares are subject to the terms of a certain Warrant Agreement
dated September 29, 1997 with Healthy Planet Products, Inc., pursuant
to which they were issued."
Any certificate issued at any time in exchange or substitution
for any certificate bearing such legend (except a new certificate issued upon
completion of a public distribution pursuant to a registration statement under
the Securities Act of the Warrant Shares represented thereby) shall also bear
the above legend unless, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company,
the securities represented thereby need no longer be subject to such
restrictions.
2
Section 2. Exchange of Warrant Certificate. Any Warrant
certificate may be exchanged for another certificate or certificates entitling
the Warrantholder to purchase a like aggregate number of Warrant Shares which
are part of the same Warrant Tranche as the certificate or certificates
surrendered then entitled such Warrantholder to purchase. Any Warrantholder
desiring to exchange a Warrant certificate shall make such request in writing
delivered to the Company, and shall surrender, properly endorsed, the
certificate evidencing the Warrants to be so exchanged. Thereupon, the Company
shall execute and deliver to the person entitled thereto a new Warrant
Certificate as so requested.
Section 3. Term of Warrants; Exercise of Warrants.
3.1 Term. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the
Warrantholder shall have the right, at any time during the period commencing at
9:00 a.m., California time, on the date hereof and ending at 5:00 p.m.,
California time, on September 29, 2002 (the "Termination Date"), to purchase
from the Company up to the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares
which the Warrantholder may at the time be entitled to purchase pursuant to this
Agreement, upon surrender to the Company, at its principal office in Petaluma,
California, or wherever its principal executive offices may then be located, of
the certificate evidencing the Warrants to be exercised, together with the
purchase form on the reverse thereof duly filled in and signed, and upon payment
to the Company of the applicable Exercise Price (as set forth in Section 7
hereof and as subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 8 hereof), for the
number of Warrant Shares in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised,
but in no event for less than 25 Warrant Shares, unless the Warrant entitled the
Warrantholder on exercise to less than 25 Warrant Shares, in which event the
Warrant can be exercised for such lesser number of Warrant Shares.
3.2 Exercise. Payment of the applicable Exercise Price shall be
made in cash or by check. Upon surrender of the Warrant Certificates and payment
of such Exercise Price as aforesaid, the Company shall issue and cause to be
delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the
Warrantholder and in such name or names as the Warrantholder may designate a
certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares so purchased
upon the exercise of the corresponding Warrants, together with cash, as provided
in Section 9 hereof, in respect of any fractional Warrant Shares otherwise
issuable upon such surrender. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed
to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall be
deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date
of the surrender of the Warrant certificate and the payment of the applicable
Exercise Price, as aforesaid, notwithstanding that the certificates representing
the Warrant Shares shall not actually have been delivered or that the stock
transfer books of the Company shall then be closed. The Warrants shall be
exercisable, at the election of the Warrantholder, either in full or from time
to time in part and, in the event that a certificate evidencing the Warrants is
exercised in respect of less than all of the Warrant Shares specified therein at
any time prior to the Termination Date, a new certificate
3
evidencing the remaining Warrants which are part of the same Warrant Tranche
will be issued by the Company.
Section 4. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary
stamp taxes, if any, attributable to the issuance of the Warrant Shares
hereunder.
Section 5. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificate. In case the
certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrants shall be mutilated, lost,
stolen or destroyed, the Company shall, at the request of the Warrantholder,
issue and deliver in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the
mutilated certificate or certificates, or in lieu of and substitution for the
certificate or certificates lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant certificate
or certificates of like tenor and representing an equivalent right or interest,
but only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of such loss,
theft or destruction of such Warrants and a bond of indemnity, if requested,
also satisfactory in form and amount, at the applicant's cost. Applicants for
such substitute Warrant certificate shall also comply with such other reasonable
requirements and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe.
Section 6. Reservation of Warrant Shares. There has been
reserved, and the Company shall at all times keep reserved so long as all or any
portion of the Warrants remains outstanding, out of its authorized Common
Shares, such number of Warrant Shares as shall be subject to purchase under such
portion of the Warrants which remains outstanding. Every transfer agent for the
Common Shares and other securities of the Company issuable upon the exercise of
the Warrants will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve
such number of authorized Warrant Shares and other securities as shall be
requisite for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this Agreement on
file with every transfer agent for the Common Shares and other securities of the
Company issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Company will supply such
transfer agent with duly executed stock and other certificates for such purpose
and will provide or otherwise make available any cash which may be payable as
provided in Section 9 hereof.
Section 7. Exercise Prices. The prices per Share (the "Exercise
Prices") at which Warrant Shares shall be purchasable upon the exercise of the
Warrants shall be as follows: (i) 100,000 Warrant Shares at an exercise price of
$4.00 per share; (ii) 100,000 Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $4.25 per
share; and (iii) 100,000 Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $4.50 per share.
The respective Exercise Prices for each Warrant Tranche set forth herein shall
be subject to further adjustment pursuant to Section 8 hereof.
4
Section 8. Adjustment of Exercise Prices and Number of Warrant
Shares.
8.1 General. The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of the Warrants and the Exercise Prices shall be subject to adjustment
from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows: (For
purposes of this Section 8, the requirement for any adjustment and the size of
an adjustment in any particular circumstance shall be determined separately for
each Warrant Tranche. Any reference to "Exercise Price" in this Section shall be
deemed to refer to the Exercise Price for the applicable Warrant Tranche, and
the terms "Warrants" and "Warrant Shares" in this Section 8 shall refer to the
number Warrants or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, to the extent such
Warrants have not been exercised as of the close of business on the day prior to
the date when any determination pursuant to this Section 8 is required to be
made.)
(a) In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in
Common Shares or make a distribution in Common Shares, (ii) subdivide its
outstanding Common Shares, (iii) combine its outstanding Common Shares into a
smaller number of Common Shares (by way of a reverse stock split or otherwise)
or (iv) issue by reclassification of its Common Shares other securities of the
Company, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants
immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Warrantholder shall be
entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of
the Company which it would have owned or would have been entitled to receive
after the happening of any of the events described above, had the Warrants been
exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event or any record date
with respect thereto. Any adjustment made pursuant to this subsection 8.1(a)
shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event
retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.
(b) In case the Company shall issue rights, options,
warrants or convertible securities to all or substantially all of the holders of
its Common Shares, without any charge to such holders, entitling them to
subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share which is lower at
the record date mentioned below than the Exercise Price, the number of Warrant
Shares thereafter purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be
determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares theretofore purchasable
upon the exercise of the Warrants by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be
the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of
such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities plus the number of
additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the
denominator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior
to the issuance of such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities plus
the number of Common Shares which the aggregate offering price of the total
number of Common Shares offered would purchase at the Exercise Price. Such
adjustment shall be made whenever such rights, options, warrants or convertible
securities are issued, and shall become effective immediately and retroactively
after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive
such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities.
5
(c) In case the Company shall distribute to all or
substantially all of the holders of its Common Shares evidences of its
indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends or distributions out of
earnings) or issue, to all or substantially all of such holders, without any
charge to such holders, rights, options, warrants or convertible securities
containing the right to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (excluding those
referred to in paragraph (b) above), then in each case the number of Warrant
Shares thereafter purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be
determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares theretofore purchasable
upon exercise of the Warrants by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the
Exercise Price on the date of such distribution, and of which the denominator
shall be the Exercise Price on such date minus the then fair value of the
portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such
rights, options, warrants or convertible securities applicable to one share.
Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall
be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective on the
date of distribution retroactive to the record date for the determination of
shareholders entitled to receive such distribution.
(d) No adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable hereunder shall be required unless such adjustment would require an
increase or decrease of at least one percent in the aggregate number of Warrant
Shares then purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants or, if the Warrants
are not then exercisable, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of the Warrants on the first date thereafter that the Warrants become
exercisable; provided however, that any adjustments which by reason of this
subsection 8.a(d) are not required to be made immediately shall be carried
forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
(e) Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted as herein provided in this
subsection 8.1, the Exercise Price payable upon exercise of the Warrants shall
be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such
adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares
so purchasable immediately thereafter.
(f) To the extent not covered by paragraphs (b) or (c)
hereof, in case the Company shall sell and issue Common Shares or rights,
options, warrants or convertible securities containing the right to subscribe
for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share (determined, in the case of
such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities, by dividing (i) the
total amount received or receivable by the Company in consideration of the sale
and issuance of such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities, plus
the total consideration payable to the Company upon exercise or conversion
thereof, by (ii) the total number of shares covered by such rights, options,
warrants or convertible securities) lower than the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such sale and issuance, then the Exercise Price shall be
reduced to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by
6
dividing (i) an amount equal to the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares
outstanding immediately prior to such sale and issuance multiplied by the then
existing Exercise Price, plus (B) the consideration received by the Company upon
such sale and issuance, by (ii) the total number of Common Shares outstanding
immediately after such sale and issuance. The number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be that number determined by
multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise immediately
prior to such adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator is the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator is the
Exercise Price as so adjusted. For the purposes of such adjustments, the Common
Shares which the holders of any such rights, options, warrants or convertible
securities shall be entitled to subscribe for or purchase shall be deemed to be
outstanding as of the date of such sale and issuance and the consideration
received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the consideration
received by the Company for such rights, options, warrants or convertible
securities, plus the consideration stated in such rights, options, warrants or
convertible securities to be paid for the Common Shares covered thereby. In case
the Company shall sell and issue Common Shares or rights, options, warrants or
convertible securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase Common
Shares for a consideration consisting, in whole or in part, of property other
than cash or its equivalent, then in determining the "price per share" of Common
Shares and the "consideration received by the Company" for purposes of the first
sentence of this paragraph (f), the Board of Directors shall determine the fair
value of said property, and such determination, if reasonable and based upon the
Board of Directors' good faith business judgment, shall be binding upon the
Warrantholder. There shall be no adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to
this paragraph (f) if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $.01 per
Warrant Share; provided, however, that any adjustment which by reason of this
provision is not required to be made immediately shall be carried forward and
taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
(g) Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
upon the exercise of the Warrants or the Exercise Price is adjusted as herein
provided in this subsection 8.1, the Company shall cause to be promptly mailed
to the Warrantholder in accordance with the provisions of Section 12 hereof,
notice of such adjustment or adjustments and a certificate of a firm of
independent public accountants selected by the Board of Directors of the Company
(who may be the regular accountants employed by the Company) setting forth the
number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants and the
Exercise Price after such adjustment, a brief statement of the facts requiring
such adjustment and the computation by which such adjustment was made.
(h) For the purpose of this subsection 8.1, the term
"Common Shares" shall mean (i) the class of shares designated as the Common
Shares of the Company at the date of this Agreement or (ii) any other class of
shares resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of such Common
Shares including changes in par value, or from par value to no par value, or
from no par value to par value. In the event that at any time, as a result of an
adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8, the Warrantholder shall become
entitled to
7
purchase any shares of the Company other than Common Shares, thereafter the
number of such other shares so purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants and the
Exercise Price of such shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions
with respect to the Shares contained in this Section 8.
(i) Upon the expiration of any rights, options, warrants
or conversion privileges referred to in this Section 8, if such shall not have
been exercised, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the
Warrants and the Exercise Price, to the extent the Warrants have not then been
exercised, shall, upon such expiration, be readjusted and shall thereafter be
such as they would have been had they been originally adjusted (or had the
original adjustment not been required, as the case may be) on the basis of (A)
the fact that the only Common Shares so issued were the Common Shares, if any,
actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such privileges, options, warrants
or conversion rights and (B) the fact that such Common Shares, if any, were
issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company upon such
exercise plus the consideration , if any, actually received by the Company for
the issuance, sale or grant of all such rights, options, warrants or conversion
rights whether or not exercised; provided, however, that no such readjustment
shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price by an amount in excess of
the amount of the adjustment initially made in respect of the issuance, sale or
grant of such rights, options, warrants or convertible rights.
8.2 No Adjustment of Dividends. Except as provided in subsection
8.1, no adjustment in respect of dividends shall be made during the term of the
Warrants or upon the exercise thereof.
8.3 No Adjustment in Certain Cases. No adjustments shall be made
hereunder in connection with the issuance of Common Shares or warrants or any
other rights to purchase Common Shares: (a) pursuant to any underwriting
agreement relating to any public offering or the issuance of Common Shares upon
exercise of an underwriter's warrant issued in connection with any public
offering, (b) in connection with the exercise of options or warrants outstanding
on the date hereof, (c) in connection with the grant and/or exercise, pursuant
to stock option plans of the Company, of stock options to employees and
consultants of the Company outstanding as of the date hereof, (d) in connection
with the conversion of any Series D Preferred Stock issued and outstanding on
the date of this Agreement, and (e) in connection with the grant and/or exercise
of stock options to non-employee directors pursuant to a director stock option
plan of the Company.
8.4 Preservation of Purchase Rights Upon Reclassification,
Consolidation, etc. In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger
of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale or conveyance to
another person of the property, assets or business of the Company as an entirety
or substantially as an entirety, the Company or such successor or purchaser, as
the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholder an
8
agreement that the Warrantholder shall have the right thereafter upon payment of
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to purchase upon
exercise of the Warrants the kind and amount of shares and other securities and
property which the Warrantholder would have owned or have been entitled to
receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
had the Warrants been exercised immediately prior to such action. In the event
of a merger described in Section 368(a)(2)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the right
to purchase Warrant Shares under the Warrants shall terminate on the date of
such merger and thereupon the Warrants shall become null and void but only if
the controlling corporation shall agree to substitute for the Warrants other
warrants which entitle the holders thereof to purchase, upon exercise thereof,
the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which the
Warrantholder would have owned or had been entitled to receive had the Warrants
been exercised immediately prior to such merger. The adjustments required by
this Subsection 8.4 shall be effected in a manner which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for elsewhere in
this Section 8. The provisions of this Subsection 8.4 shall similarly apply to
successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.
8.5 Statement on Warrant Certificate. Irrespective of any
adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable
upon the exercise of the Warrants, the Warrant certificate or certificates
theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same price and
number and kind of shares as are stated in the Warrants initially issuable
pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 9. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required
to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of the Warrants. If any
fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 9,
be issuable on the exercise of the Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the
Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the then Current Market Price
multiplied by such fraction. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Current
Market Price" shall mean (i) if the Common Shares are traded on a national
securities exchange or on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the average for the 30
consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date in question of the daily
per share closing prices of the Common Shares on the principal securities
exchange on which they are listed or on Nasdaq, as the case may be, or (ii) if
the Common Shares are traded in the over-the-counter market and not on any
national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the average of the
mean between the per share closing bid and asked prices of the Common Shares on
the 30 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date in question, as
reported by Nasdaq or an equivalent generally accepted reporting service. The
closing price referred to in clause (i) above shall be the last reported sales
price or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such day, the average of
the reported closing bid and asked prices on such exchange or Nasdaq, as the
case may be, for the days in question.
9
Section 10. Registration Rights. Any Warrant Shares issued upon
exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to, and have the benefit of, the
registration rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement dated the
date hereof by and between the Company and the Warrantholder.
Section 11. No Rights as Shareholder; Notices to Warrantholder.
Nothing contained in this Agreement or in the Warrant Certificate shall be
construed as conferring upon the Warrantholder, or its transferees, any rights
as a shareholder of the Company, including the right to vote, receive dividends,
consent or receive notices as a shareholder in respect of any meeting of
shareholders for the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.
If, however, at any time prior to the expiration of the Warrants and prior to
the exercise thereof, any of the following events shall occur:
(a) any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to
Section 8.1 or 8.4; or
(b) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company
(other than in connection with a consolidation, merger or sale of its property,
assets and business as an entirety) shall be proposed;
then in any one or more of said events, the Company shall give notice in writing
of such event to the Warrantholder as provided in Section 11 hereof at least 20
days prior to the date fixed as a record date or the date of closing the
transfer books for the determination of the shareholders entitled to any
relevant dividend, distribution, subscription rights or other rights or for the
determination of shareholders entitled to vote on such proposed dissolution,
liquidation or winding up. Such notice shall specify such record date or the
date of closing the transfer books, as the case may be.
Section 12. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Agreement by the
Company or by the Warrantholder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have
been duly given if delivered by hand or if mailed by certified mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:
(a) If to the Warrantholder - to the address as set forth in a
certain separate Securities Purchase Agreement entered into between the
Warrantholder and the Company.

10
or to such other address as any such party may designate by notice to the other
party. Notices shall be deemed given at the time they are delivered personally
or three days after they are mailed in the manner set forth above.
Section 13. Assignment. This Agreement is binding upon and inures
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and
permitted assigns. This Agreement cannot be assigned, amended or modified by the
parties hereto, except by written agreement executed by the parties.
Section 14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 15. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.
Section 16. Merger or Consolidation of the Company. The Company
will not merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation or sell all or
substantially all of its property to another person, unless the provisions of
Section 8.4 are complied with.
Section 17. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable
to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State, without regard
to its principles of conflicts of laws.
Section 18. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement
shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof and this Agreement
shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been
contained herein.

WARRANTS TO PURCHASE 100,000 COMMON SHARES
VOID AFTER 5:00 P.M., CALIFORNIA TIME, ON THE DATE
INDICATED BELOW
HEALTHY PLANET PRODUCTS, INC.
INCORPORATED UNDER THE LAWS
OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE
This certifies that, for value received, Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, the
registered holder hereof, or assigns (the "Warrantholder"), is entitled to
purchase from Healthy Planet Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), the number of Shares set forth above, at any time during the period
commencing at 9:00 a.m., California time, on the date hereof and ending at 5:00
p.m., California time, on September 29, 2002, at the purchase price per Share
(the "Exercise Price") of $____. The number of Shares purchasable upon exercise
of the Warrants represented by this certificate and the Exercise Price per Share
shall be subject to further adjustment from time to time as set forth in the
Warrant Agreement.
The Warrants represented by this certificate may be exercised in
whole or in part by presentation of this Certificate with the Purchase Form
attached hereto duly executed and simultaneous payment of the Exercise Price
(subject to adjustment) at the principal office of the Company. Payment of such
price shall be made, at the option of the Warrantholder, in cash or by check.
This Warrant Certificate is issued under and in accordance with
the Warrant Agreement dated the date hereof (the "Warrant Agreement") among the
Company and the Warrantholder and is subject to the terms and provisions
contained in the Warrant Agreement, to all of which the Warrantholder by

value of any fraction upon the exercise of one or more Warrants. This Warrant
certificate is transferable at the office of the Company in the manner and
subject to the limitations set forth in the Warrant Agreement.
