each Guarantor to guarantee payment of the Additional Indebtedness, as evidenced
by such Guarantor's execution of the First Amendment, the Company shall execute
and deliver to such Guarantor a warrant or warrants, in the form annexed hereto
as Exhibit 1 (individually a "Warrant" and collectively the "Warrants") to

the Guarantors agree that for federal, state and local income tax as well as for
financial accounting purposes, the issuance of the Warrants by the Company to

the issuance of the Warrants in such manner for all such purposes, all to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
II.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY
The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
Guarantors as follows:
Section 2.001. Organization. The Company is a corporation duly
incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State
of Delaware and is duly licensed or qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation in good standing in each of the jurisdiction in which it owns or
leases any real property or in which the nature of business transacted by it
makes such licensing or qualification necessary and where the failure to be so
licensed or qualified would have a material adverse affect on the business,
operations or financial condition
2
of the Company. The Company has the corporate power and authority to own and
hold its properties and to carry on its business as currently conducted, to
execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and the Warrants and to issue, sell
and deliver the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the
Warrants (the "Warrant Shares").
Section 2.002. Authorization of Agreement, etc. (a) The
execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the
Warrants, and the issuance, sale and delivery of the Warrant Shares upon
exercise of the Warrants, have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate
action and will not (i) violate any provision of law, any order of any court or
other agency of government, the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the
Company, or any provision of any indenture, agreement or other instrument by
which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective
properties or assets is bound or affected; (ii) conflict with, result in a
breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default any
such indenture, agreement or other instrument; or (iii) result in the creation
or imposition of any lien, charge or incumbrance of any nature upon any of the
properties or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
(b) The Warrant Shares have been duly reserved for issuance
upon exercise of the Warrants and, when so issued, will be duly authorized,
validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non assessable shares of Common
Stock. Neither the execution and delivery of the Warrants nor the issuance and
delivery of the Warrant Shares upon exercise thereof is subject to any
preemptive rights of shareholders of the Company or to any right of first
refusal or other similar right in favor of any person.
Section 2.003. Validity. This Agreement has been duly executed
and delivered by the Company and constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms. The
Warrants, when executed in accordance with this Agreement, will constitute
legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance
with their respective terms.
III.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE GUARANTORS
Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Company that it
is acquiring the Warrants, and will, upon exercise thereof, acquire the Warrant
Shares, for its own account for purpose of investment and not with a view to or
for sale in connection with any distribution thereof. Each Guarantor further
represents that it understands (i) that neither the Warrants nor the Warrant
Shares have been registered under the Securities Act
3
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), by reason of their issuance in
transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, (ii) the Warrants and, upon exercise thereof,
the Warrant Shares must be held indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition
thereof is registered under the Securities Act or is otherwise exempt from such
registration, (iii) the Warrants and the Warrant Shares will bear a legend to
such effect and (iv) the Company will make a notation on its transfer books to
such effect. Each Guarantor further understands that the exemption from
registration afforded by Rule 144 under the Securities Act depends on the
satisfaction of various conditions and that, if applicable, affords the basis of
sales of the Warrants and/or the Warrant Shares in limited amounts under certain
conditions. Each Guarantor (i) acknowledges that it has had a full opportunity
to request from the Company to review and has received all information deemed
relevant in making a decision to enter into this Agreement and consummate the
transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) will comply with the restrictions on
transferability of the Warrants and Warrant Shares contained in the Warrant.
Each Guarantor is an "Accredited Investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of
the Securities Act.
IV.
AGREEMENTS AMONG THE GUARANTORS
The Guarantors agree with one another that all payments made
by them pursuant to their respective guarantees hereunder shall be allocated
between them in the proportions shown opposite their respective names on Exhibit
2, regardless of whether claims shall have been asserted under one Guarantor's
guarantee and not the other, and without regard to any release of any guarantee
by any beneficiary thereof.
V.
AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY
The Company covenants and agrees that any right to payment
received by the Guarantors in respect of the Credit Agreement, as amended, and
their guaranty thereof, whether by way of purchase, subrogation or otherwise,
and regardless whether and to what extent the same shall be subordinated to
other indebtedness to the Banks or shall have been waived pending certain
events, may be applied, both as to principal and accrued and unpaid interest,
dollar for dollar, by the Guarantors, or any of them, as the purchase price of
any equity securities offered by the Company to investors for cash. In addition,
in the event that the Company shall be unable to make a payment under the Credit
Agreement, as amended, the Guarantors shall have the right
4
(but not the obligation) (i) to purchase additional equity securities of the
Company and (ii) to require the Company to use the net proceeds of such purchase
to make such payment under the Credit Agreement, as amended. The right set forth
in the preceding sentence may only be exercised upon joint approval by the
Guarantors, and the securities so purchased shall be issued at fair value, based
upon current market conditions for the issuance of equity securities. The
Company shall use its best efforts to provide the Guarantors with sufficient
notice in advance of a payment default under the Credit Agreement, as amended,
to enable the Guarantors to exercise their rights under this Article V.
VI.

agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Warrants and the issuance, sale

THIS WARRANT HAS BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE UPON THE REPRESENTATION OF THE
HOLDER THAT IT HAS BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A

MEDE AMERICA CORPORATION
Stock Subscription Warrant
Warrant to Subscribe January 10, 1997
for 33,600 shares
Void After January 10, 2007
---------------------------
---------------------
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, WELSH, CARSON,
XXXXXXXX & XXXXX V, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Holder"), or its
registered assigns, is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from MEDE AMERICA
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the "Corporation"), at
the price of $1.25 per share (such price as from time to time to be adjusted as
hereinafter provided being hereinafter called the "Warrant Exercise Price"), at
any time prior to January 10, 2007, up to THIRTY-THREE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED
(33,600) (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided) fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value, of the Corporation
(hereinafter called the "Common Stock"), subject, however, to the provisions and
upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. This Warrant and any
warrant or warrants subsequently issued upon exchange or transfer hereof and
each other warrant issued pursuant to the Agreement, dated as of January 10,
1997 (the "Agreement"), among the Corporation and the stockholders of the
Corporation named therein, and any warrant or warrants subsequently issued upon
exchange or transfer thereof, are hereinafter collectively called the
"Warrants".
Section 1. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) Method of Exercise. The rights represented by this Warrant
may be exercised by the holder hereof, in whole at any time or from
time to time in part, but not as to a fractional share of Common Stock,
by the surrender of this Warrant (properly endorsed) at the office of
the Corporation as it may designate by notice in writing to the holder
hereof at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the
Corporation, and as further provided below in this Section 1:
(i) Cash Exercise. By payment to the Corporation of the
Warrant Exercise Price in cash or by certified or offi- cial bank
check, for each share being purchased;
(ii) Surrender of Indebtedness of or Claims Against
Corporation. By surrender to the Corporation for cancellation of any
indebtedness of or claim against the Corporation (including without
limitation any claim against the Corporation as subrogee in the event
the Holder shall have performed under its guarantee under the First
Amendment, as contemplated by the Agreement), or of any portion
thereof, for which credit shall be given toward the Warrant Exercise
Price for each share being acquired on a dollar-for-dollar basis with
reference to the principal amount canceled;
(iii) Net Issue Exercise. By an election to receive shares the
aggregate fair market value of which as of the date of exercise is
equal to the fair market value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof
being exercised) on such date, in which event the Corporation, upon
receipt of notice of such election, shall issue to the holder hereof a
number of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock equal to (A) the
number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of all or any
portion of this Warrant being exercised, as at such date, multiplied by
(B) the balance remaining after deducting (x) the Warrant Exercise
Price, as in effect on such date, from (y) the fair market value of one
share of the Corporation's Common Stock as at such date and dividing
the result by (C) such fair market value; or
(iv) Combined Payment Method. By satisfaction of the Warrant
Exercise Price for each share being acquired in any combination of two
or more of the methods described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above.
(b) Mandatory Exercise. Upon the consummation of an
underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as
2
amended (the "Securities Act"), covering the sale of the Corporation's
Common Stock at a price to the public of $3.00 or more (such price as
from time to time to be adjusted in the manner provided for in
paragraphs (d), (h) and (j) for the adjustment of the Warrant Exercise
Price), this Warrant, to the extent not previously exercised, shall be
surrendered (properly endorsed) at the office of the Corporation as it
may designate by notice in writing to the holder hereof at the address
of such holder appearing on the books of the Corporation, accompanied
by payment to the Corporation of the Warrant Exercise Price by one or
more of the methods specified in clauses (a)(i)-(iv) above; and to the
extent not so surrendered, it shall be deemed exercised in the manner
provided in clause (a)(iii) above and, upon delivery of the shares of
Common Stock determined in accordance therewith, this Warrant shall be
canceled.
(c) Definition of Fair Market Value. For the purposes of this
Section 1, "fair market value" shall mean, as to any security, as
follows: if that security is listed or admitted to trading on one or
more national securities exchanges, the average of the last reported
sales prices per share regular way or, in case no such reported sales
takes place on any such day, the average of the last reported bid and
asked prices per share regular way, in either case on the principal
national securities exchange on which that security is listed or
admitted to trading, for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the
date upon which the fair market value is determined (the "Determination
Date"); if that security is not listed or admitted to trading on a
national securities exchange but is quoted by the NASD Automated
Quotation System ("NASDAQ"), the average of the last reported sales
prices per share regular way or, in case no reported sale takes place
on any such day or the last reported sales prices are not then quoted
by NASDAQ, the average for each such day of the last reported bid and
asked prices per share, for the 20 trading days immediately preceding
the Determination Date as furnished by the National Quotation Bureau
Incorporated or any similar successor organization; and if that
security is not listed or admitted to trading on a national securities
exchange or quoted by NASDAQ or any other nationally recognized
quotation service, the "fair market value" shall be the fair value
thereof determined jointly by the Corporation and the registered
holders of Warrants outstanding representing a majority of the shares
of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of the Warrants, provided,
however, that if such parties are unable to reach agreement within a
reasonable time, the "fair market value" shall be determined in good
faith by an independent investment banking firm selected jointly by the
Corporation and the registered holders of Warrants outstanding
representing a majority of the shares of Common Stock
3
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or, if that selection cannot be
made within 15 days, by an independent investment banking firm selected
by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its rules.
Anything in this paragraph (c) to the contrary notwithstanding, the
fair market value of this Warrant or any portion thereof as of any
Determination Date shall be equal to (i) the fair market value of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or such
portion thereof), (determined in accordance with the foregoing
provisions of this paragraph (c)), minus (ii) the aggregate Warrant
Exercise Price of this Warrant (or such portion thereof).
(d) Delivery of Certificates, Etc. In the event of any
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a certificate or
certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased, registered in
the name of the holder, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within
a reasonable time, not exceeding ten days, after the rights represented
by this Warrant shall have been so exercised; and, unless this Warrant
has expired, a new Warrant representing the number of shares (except a
remaining fractional share), if any, with respect to which this Warrant
shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to the holder
hereof within such time. The person in whose name any certificate for
shares of Common Stock is issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall
for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such
shares on the date on which the Warrant was surrendered and payment of
the Warrant Exercise Price and any applicable taxes was made, except
that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date on which the
stock transfer books of the Corporation are closed, such person shall
be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of
business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books
are open.
Section 2. Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each
adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price as provided in Section 3, the holder of
this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Warrant Exercise
Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares (calculated to the
nearest tenth of a share) obtained by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares purchasable
pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product
thereof by the Warrant Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
4
Section 3. Adjustment of Price Upon Issuance of Common Stock.
If and whenever the Corporation shall issue or sell any shares of its Common
Stock for a consideration per share less than the Warrant Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then, forthwith upon
such issue or sale the Warrant Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price
(calculated to the nearest $.01) determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to
the sum of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issue or sale (including as outstanding all shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Convertible Securities (as
hereinafter defined) or exercise of outstanding Warrants multiplied by the then
existing Warrant Exercise Price, and (b) the consideration, if any, received by
the Corporation upon such issue or sale, by (ii) the total number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale (including as
outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all
outstanding Convertible Securities or exercise of outstanding Warrants). No
adjustments of the Warrant Exercise Price, however, shall be made in an amount
less than $.01 per share, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried
forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent
adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount
to $.01 per share or more.
For purposes of this Section 3, the following paragraphs (a)
to (p), inclusive, shall also be applicable:
(a) Issuance of Rights or Options. In case at any time the
Corporation shall in any manner grant (whether directly or by
assumption in a merger or otherwise) any rights to subscribe for or to
purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or any stock
or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such
rights or options being herein called "Options", and such convertible
or exchangeable stock or securities being herein called "Convertible
Securities") whether or not such Options or the right to convert or
exchange any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable,
and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the
exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if
any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the
granting of such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of
additional consideration payable to the Corporation upon the exercise
of all such Options, plus, in the case of such Options which relate to
Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable upon the issue or sale of such
Convertible Securities and upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by
(ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of such Options
5
or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities
issuable upon the exercise of such Options) shall be less than the
Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the
granting of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon
conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible
Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed
to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of granting
of such Options and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding.
Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c), no adjustment of the
Warrant Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such
Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such
Options or upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion
or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(b) Issuance of Convertible Securities. In case the
Corporation shall in any manner issue (whether directly or by
assumption in a merger or otherwise) or sell any Convertible
Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder
are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common
Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange (determined by
dividing (i) the total amount received or receivable by the Corporation
as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities,
plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any,
payable to the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Warrant Exercise Price
in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the
total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have
been issued for such price per share as of the date of the issue or
sale of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to
be outstanding, provided that (i) except as otherwise provided in
paragraph (c) below, no adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price shall
be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities, and (ii) if any such issue or
sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Option
to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which adjustments of
the Warrant Exercise Price have been or are to be made pursuant to
other provisions of this Section 3, no further adjustment of the
Warrant Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
(c) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. Upon the
happening of any of the following events, namely, if the purchase price
provided for in any Option referred to in paragraph (a), the additional
consideration, if any, payable
6
upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred
to in paragraph (a) or (b), or the rate at which any Convertible
Securities referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) are convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock shall change at any time (other than
under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution),
the Warrant Exercise Price in effect at the time of such event shall
forthwith be readjusted to the Warrant Exercise Price which would have
been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities
still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional
consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold; and on the expiration of any such
Option or the termination of any such right to convert or exchange such
Convertible Securities, the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect
hereunder shall forthwith be increased to the Warrant Exercise Price
which would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or
termination had such Option or Convertible Security, to the extent
outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never
been issued, and the Common Stock issuable thereunder shall no longer
be deemed to be outstanding.
If the purchase price provided for in any such Option referred to in
paragraph (a) or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred
to in paragraph (a) or (b) are convertible into or exchangeable for
Common Stock, shall be reduced at any time under or by reason of
provisions with respect thereto designed to protect against dilution,
then in case of the delivery of Common Stock upon the exercise of any
such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any such Convertible
Security, the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall
forthwith be adjusted to such respective amount as would have been
obtained had such Option or Convertible Security never been issued as
to such Common Stock and had adjustments been made upon the issuance of
the shares of Common Stock delivered as aforesaid, but only if as a
result of such adjustment the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect
hereunder is thereby reduced.
(d) Stock Dividends. In case the Corporation shall declare a
dividend or make any other distribution upon any stock of the
Corporation payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities,
any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may
be, issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution shall be
deemed to have been issued in a subdivision of outstanding shares as
provided in paragraph (h) below.
(e) Consideration for Stock. In case any shares of Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for
cash, the consideration received therefor
7
shall be deemed to be the amount received by the Corporation therefor,
without deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any
underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the
Corporation in connection therewith. In case any shares of Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for a
consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other
than cash received by the Corporation shall be deemed to be the fair
value of such consideration as determined by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation, without deduction of any expenses incurred or any
underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the
Corporation in connection therewith. The amount of consideration deemed
to be received by the Corporation pursuant to the foregoing provisions
of this paragraph (e) upon any issuance and/or sale, pursuant to an
established compensation plan of the Corporation, to directors,
officers or employees of the Corporation in connection with their
employment of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities, shall be increased by the amount of any tax benefit
realized by the Corporation as a result of such issuance and/or sale,
the amount of such tax benefit being the amount by which the Federal
and/or State income or other tax liability of the Corporation shall be
reduced by reason of any deduction or credit in respect of such
issuance and/or sale. In case any Options shall be issued in connection
with the issue and sale of other securities of the Corporation,
together comprising one integral transaction in which no specific
consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, such
Options shall be deemed to have been issued without consideration. In
case any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities
shall be issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which
the Corporation is the surviving corporation, the amount of
consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value as
determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation of such portion
of the assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as such
Board shall determine to be attributable to such Common Stock, Options
or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. In the event of any
consolidation or merger of the Corporation in which the Corporation is
not the surviving corporation or in the event of any sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Corporation for stock or other
securities of any corporation, the Corporation shall be deemed to have
issued a number of shares of its Common Stock for stock or securities
of the other corporation computed on the basis of the actual exchange
ratio on which the transaction was predicated and for a consideration
equal to the fair market value on the date of such transaction of such
stock or securities of the other corporation, and if any such
calculation results in adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price, the
determination of the number of shares of Common Stock
8
receivable under this Warrant immediately prior to such merger,
consolidation or sale, for purposes of paragraph (j), shall be made
after giving effect to such adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price.
(f) Record Date. In case the Corporation shall take a record
of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them
(i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, or (ii) to subscribe for or
purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such
record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the
shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the
declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution
or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase,
as the case may be.
(g) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by
or for the account of the Corporation, and the disposition of any such
shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock for the
purposes of this Section 3.
(h) Subdivision or Combination of Stock. In case the
Corporation shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced, and conversely, in case the outstanding shares
of Common Stock of the Corporation shall be combined into a smaller
number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.
(i) Certain Issues of Common Stock Excepted. Anything herein
to the contrary notwithstanding, the Corporation shall not be required
to make any adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price in the case of the
issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of employee stock
options approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
(j) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or
Sale. If any capital reorganization or reclassi- fication of the
capital stock of the Corporation or any consolidation or merger of the
Corporation with another corporation, or the sale of all or
substantially all of its assets to another corporation shall be
effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled
to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange
for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger or
9
sale, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby each holder
of the 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 Common Stock of the Corporation immediately theretofore
receivable upon the exercise of such Warrant or Warrants, such shares
of stock, securities or assets (including cash) as may be issued or
payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding
shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such stock
immediately theretofore so receivable had such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale not taken place, and in
any such case appropriate provision 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 adjustments of the
Warrant Exercise Price) 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 exercise rights
(including an immediate adjustment, by reason of such reorganization or
reclassification, of the Warrant Exercise Price to the value for the
Common Stock reflected by the terms of such reorganization or
reclassification if the value so reflected is less than the Warrant
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such reorganization or
reclassifica- tion). In the event of a merger or consolidation of the
Corporation as a result of which a greater or lesser number of shares
of common stock of the surviving corporation are issuable to holders of
Common Stock of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior to such
merger or consolidation, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such merger or consolidation shall be adjusted in
the same manner as though there were a subdivision or combination of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation. The
Corporation will not effect any such consolidation, merger or any sale
of all or substantially all of its assets of properties, unless prior
to the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than
the Corporation) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the
corporation purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument
executed and mailed or delivered to each holder of the Warrants at the
last address of such holder appearing on the books of the Corporation,
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.
(k) Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Warrant
Exercise Price, then and in each such case, the Corporation shall give
written notice thereof, by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed
to each holder of the Warrants at the address of such holder as shown
on the books
10
of the Corporation, which notice shall state the Warrant Exercise Price
resulting from such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the
method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is
based.
(l) Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which in the
opinion of the Board of Directors of the Corporation the other
provisions of this Section 3 are not strictly applicable or if strictly
applicable would not fairly protect the exercise rights of this
Warrant, in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such
provisions to protect against dilution, then such Board of Directors
shall in good faith make an adjustment in the application of such
provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, so
as to protect such exercise rights as aforesaid.
(m) Stock to Be Reserved. The Corporation will at all times
reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock or its
treasury shares, solely for the purpose of issue upon the exercise of
this Warrant as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock
as shall then be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The
Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be so
issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect
to the issue thereof, and, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Corporation covenants that it will from time to time
take all such action as may be requisite to assure that the par value
per share of the Common Stock is at all times equal to or less than the
effective Warrant Exercise Price. The Corporation will take all such
action as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common
Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or
regulation, or of any requirements of any national securities exchange
upon which the Common Stock of the Corporation may be listed. The
Corporation will not take any action which results in any adjustment of
the Warrant Exercise Price if the total number of shares of Common
Stock issued and issuable after such action upon exercise of this
Warrant would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then
authorized by the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation. The
Corporation has not granted and will not grant any right of first
refusal with respect to shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant,
and there are no preemptive rights associated with such shares.
(n) Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants shall be made without charge
to the holders of such Warrants for any issuance tax in respect thereof
provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax
which may be
11
payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and
delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of any holder of
the Warrants.
(o) Closing of Books. The Corporation will at no time close
its transfer books against the transfer of the shares of Common Stock
issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in any manner
which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.
(p) Definition of Common Stock. As used herein the term
"Common Stock" shall mean and include the Common Stock, $.01 par value,
of the Corporation as authorized on the date hereof and also any
capital stock of any class of the Corporation hereinafter authorized
which shall not be limited to a fixed sum or percentage in respect of
the rights of the holders thereof to participate in dividends or in the
distribution of assets upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, provided, however, that
the shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall include only
shares designated as Common Stock, $.01 par value, of the Corporation
on the date hereof, or shares of any class or classes resulting from
any reclassification or reclassifications thereof which are not limited
to any such fixed sum or percentage and are not subject to redemption
by the Corporation and, in case at any time there shall be more than
one such resulting class, the shares of each class then so issuable
shall be substantially in the proportion which the total number of
shares of such class resulting from all such reclassifications bears to
the total number of shares of all such classes resulting from all such
reclassifications.
Section 4. Notices of Record Dates. In the event of
(1) any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders
of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders
thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution
(other than cash dividends out of earned surplus), or any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any
class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other
right, or
(2) any capital reorganization of the Corporation, any
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the
Corporation or any transfer of all or substantially all the assets of
the Corporation to or consolidation or merger of the Corporation with
or into any other corporation, or
12
(3) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up of the Corporation, then and in each such event the Corporation will
give notice to the holder of this Warrant specifying (i) the date on which any
such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or
right and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or
right, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification,
recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of record of Common Stock will be entitled to exchange their shares
of Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such
reorganization, reclassifi- cation, recapitalization, transfer, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be given at
least 20 days and not more than 90 days prior to the date therein specified, and
such notice shall state that the action in question or the record date is
subject to the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities
Act or to a favorable vote of stockholders, if either is required.
Section 5. [omitted]
Section 6. No Stockholder Rights or Liabilities. This Warrant
shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
stockholder of the Corporation. No provi- sion hereof, in the absence of
affirmative action by the holder hereof to purchase shares of Common Stock, and
no mere enumera- tion herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof,
shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Warrant Exercise Price
or as a stockholder of the Corporation, whether such liability is asserted by
the Corporation or by creditors of the Corporation.
Section 7. Investment Representation and Legend. The holder,
by acceptance of the Warrant, represents and warrants to the Corporation that it
is acquiring the Warrant and the shares of Common Stock (or other securities)
issuable upon the exercise hereof for investment purposes only and not with a
view towards the resale or other distribution thereof and agrees that (a) it
will not offer, sell, transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Warrant or
any of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) issuable upon the
exercise hereof unless either (i) there is an effective registration statement
under said Act relating thereto or (ii) the Corporation has received an opinion
of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation,
stating that such registration is not required; and (b) the Corporation may
affix upon this Warrant the following legend:
13
"This Warrant has been issued in reliance upon the
representation of the holder that it has been acquired for investment
purposes and not with a view towards the resale or other distribution
thereof. Neither this Warrant nor the shares issuable upon the exercise
of this Warrant have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933."
The holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, further agrees that the Corporation
may affix the following legend to certificates for shares of Common Stock issued
upon exercise of this Warrant:
"The securities represented by this certificate have been
issued in reliance upon the representation of the holder that they have
been acquired for investment and not with a view toward the resale or
other distribution thereof, and have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933. Neither the securities evidenced hereby, nor
any interest therein, may be offered, sold, transferred, encumbered or
otherwise disposed of unless either (i) there is an effective
registration statement under said Act relating thereto or (ii) the
Corporation has received an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory
in form and substance to the Corporation, stating that such
registration is not required."
Section 8. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If
this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Corporation may, on
such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its discretion reasonably
impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender
thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as the Warrant so
lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an
original contractual obligation of the Corporation, whether or not the allegedly
lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone.
Section 9. Notices. All notices, requests and other
communications required or permitted to be given or delivered hereunder shall be
in writing, and shall be delivered, or shall be sent by certified or registered
mail, postage prepaid and addressed, if to the holder to such holder at the
address shown on such holder's Warrant or at such other address as shall have
been furnished to the Corporation by notice from such holder. All notices,
requests and other communications required or permitted to be given or delivered
hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be delivered, or shall be sent by
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the Corporation
at such address as shall have been furnished to the holder by notice from the
Corporation.
