conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after --------- (the
"Initial Exercise Date") and on or prior to the close of business on the
35th business day after the Initial Exercise Date (the "Termination Date")
but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Cavion
Technologies, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the "Company"), up to --------
------ (---------) shares (the "Warrant Shares") of Common Stock, $.0001
par value, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The purchase price of one
share of Common Stock (the "Exercise Price") under this Warrant shall be $-
---- (the weighted average of the Purchase Prices of the Common Stock
purchased on the applicable Settlement Date). The Exercise Price and the
number of shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to
adjustment as provided herein. In the event of any conflict between the
terms of this Warrant and the Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated July
21, 2000 pursuant to which this Warrant has been issued (the "Purchase
Agreement"), the Purchase Agreement shall control. Capitalized terms used
and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for
such terms in the Purchase Agreement.
1. TITLE TO WARRANT. Prior to the Termination Date and
subject to compliance with applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights
hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency
of the Company by the holder hereof in person or by duly authorized
attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form
annexed hereto properly endorsed.
2. AUTHORIZATION OF SHARES. The Company covenants that all
shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of rights
represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the rights represented
by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the
issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring
contemporaneously with such issue).
3. EXERCISE OF WARRANT. Except as provided in Section 4
herein, exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be
made at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and before
the close of business on the Termination Date. Exercise of this Warrant
or any part hereof shall be effected by the surrender of this Warrant and
the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of
the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may
designate by notice in writing to the registered holder hereof at the
address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company) and upon
payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire
transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank, the holder of
this Warrant shall be entitled to receive delivery of the number of shares
of Common Stock so purchased through the Depository Trust Company DWAC
system, if possible, or in the form of one or more certificates. Shares
purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the holder hereof within three
(3) Trading Days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been
exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been
exercised and such shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder
or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to
have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the
date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the
Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by Holder, if any,
pursuant to Section 5 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been
paid. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company
shall, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a
new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased
shares of Common Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall
in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
4. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP. No fractional shares or
scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of
this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise
be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash
adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to the
Exercise Price.
5. CHARGES, TAXES AND EXPENSES. Issuance of shares of Common
Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
the Holder hereof for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental
expense in respect of the issuance of such Shares, all of which taxes and
expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be
issued in the name of the Holder of this Warrant or in such name or names
as may be directed by the Holder of this Warrant; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
in the event the shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name other
than the name of the Holder of this Warrant, this Warrant when surrendered
for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto
duly executed by the Holder hereof; and the Company may require, as a
condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any
transfer tax incidental thereto.
6. CLOSING OF BOOKS. The Company will not close its
shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely
exercise of this Warrant.
7. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION. (a) Subject to
compliance with any applicable securities laws, transfer of this Warrant
and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be registered on the
books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of
this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with a
written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached
hereto duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney and funds
sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such
transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the
assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified
in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new
Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this
Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may
be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of shares of Common Stock
without having a new Warrant issued.
(b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants
upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together
with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new
Warrants are to be issued, signed by Holder or its agent or attorney.
Subject to compliance with Section 7(a), as to any transfer which may be
involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and
deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants
to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice.
(c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own
expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this
Section 7.
(d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office,
books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the
Warrants.
8. NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER UNTIL EXERCISE. This Warrant does
not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the
surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price,
the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to
such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business
on the later of the date of such surrender or payment.
9. LOSS, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OR MUTILATION OF WARRANT. The
Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
Warrant certificate or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant
Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or
security reasonably satisfactory to it (which shall not include the
posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant
or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a
new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
10. SATURDAYS, SUNDAYS, HOLIDAYS, ETC. If the last or
appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right
required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday,
then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next
succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
11. ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES.
(a) STOCK SPLITS, ETC. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon
the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the following.
In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or
make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to holders of its
outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of
Common Stock or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a
reclassification of the Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall
be adjusted so that the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to
receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the
Company which he would have owned or have been entitled to receive had
such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such adjustment
of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the
Company which are purchasable hereunder, the holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other
securities resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant
Share or other security obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment
and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the
Company resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to
this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date
of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.
(b) REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR
DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where
there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of
the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation
and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification,
merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of
the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or
other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants
or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of
common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other Property"),
are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the
Company, then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon
exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of common stock of the
successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the
surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result
of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or
disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In
case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation
or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other
than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance
and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant
to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and
liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed
appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as
nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this
Section 11. For purposes of this Section 11, "common stock of the
successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock of such
corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets
over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject
to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares
of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable
for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified
date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other
rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing
provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive
reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition
of assets.
12. VOLUNTARY ADJUSTMENT BY THE COMPANY. The Company may at
any time during the term of this Warrant, reduce the then current Exercise
Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the
Board of Directors of the Company.
13. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant
Shares or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon
the exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein
provided, the Company shall promptly mail by registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, to the Holder of this Warrant notice of such
adjustment or adjustments setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (and
other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other
securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the
computation by which such adjustment was made. Such notice, in the
absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness
of such adjustment.
14. NOTICE OF CORPORATE ACTION. If at any time:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or
other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any
evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any
other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the
Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of
the Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any
sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the
property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation or,
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company;
(d) then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company
shall give to Holder (i) at least 30 days' prior written notice of the
date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend,
distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any
such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale,
transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of
any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale,
transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 30
days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place.
Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i)
the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such
dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common
Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and
the amount and character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer,
disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and
the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of
Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock
for securities or other property deliverable upon such disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be
sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder
appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with
Section 16(d).
15. AUTHORIZED SHARES. The Company covenants that during the
period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and
unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the
issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights
under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of
this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are
charged with the duty of executing stock certificates or instructing the
Company's transfer agent to execute and issue the necessary certificates
for, or to instruct the Company's transfer agent to issue the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The
Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure
that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without
violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of
the Principal Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
The Company shall not by any action, including, without
limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek
to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this
Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of
all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary
or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder against impairment.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not
increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the
exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor upon such
exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all
such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company
may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use all
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations,
exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction
thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its
obligations under this Warrant.
Upon the request of Holder, the Company will at any time during
the period this Warrant is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in form
reasonably satisfactory to Holder, the continuing validity of this Warrant
and the obligations of the Company hereunder.
Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment
reducing the current Exercise Price below the then par value, if any, of
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the
Company shall take any corporate action which may be necessary in order
that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-
assessable shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted Exercise Price.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations
or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any
public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
15. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) JURISDICTION. This Warrant shall be binding upon any
successors or assigns of the Company. This Warrant shall constitute a
contract under the laws of New York without regard to its conflict of law
principles or rules, and be subject to arbitration pursuant to the terms
set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
(b) RESTRICTIONS. The Holder hereof acknowledges that the
Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not
registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and
federal securities laws.
(c) NONWAIVER AND EXPENSES. No course of dealing or any
delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder
shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder's
rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate
on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully fails to comply with
any material provision of this Warrant, the Company shall pay to Holder
such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any reasonable out of pocket
costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys'
fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in
collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any
of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
(d) NOTICES. Any notice, request or other document
required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder hereof by the
Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the
Purchase Agreement.
(e) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. No provision hereof, in the
absence of affirmative action by Holder to purchase shares of Common
Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder
hereof, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price
of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such
liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
(f) REMEDIES. Holder, in addition to being entitled to
exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be
entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The
Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation
for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of
this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for
specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(g) SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to applicable
securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced
hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of
the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The
provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all
Holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by any
such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
(h) INDEMNIFICATION. The Company agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless Holder from and against any liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs,
attorneys' fees, expenses and disbursements of any kind which may be
imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Holder in any manner
relating to or arising out of any failure by the Company to perform or
observe in any material respect any of its covenants, agreements,
undertakings or obligations set forth in this Warrant; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the Company will not be liable hereunder to the extent that any
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, claims, costs, attorneys' fees, expenses or disbursements are found
in a final non-appealable judgment by a court to have resulted from
Holder's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in its capacity as a
stockholder or warrantholder of the Company.
(i) AMENDMENT. This Warrant may be modified or amended or
the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and
the Holder.
(j) SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of
this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions
of this Warrant.
(k) HEADINGS. The headings used in this Warrant are for
the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be
deemed a part of this Warrant.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be
executed by its officer thereunto duly authorized.
