1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
1.1. NUMBER OF SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE. From and after the
Issue Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder hereof shall be
entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole in accordance with
the terms of Subsection 1.2 or upon exercise of this Warrant in part in
accordance with Subsection 1.3, shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject
to adjustment pursuant to Section 3.
1.2. FULL EXERCISE. This Warrant may be exercised in full by the
Holder hereof by delivery of an original or facsimile copy of the form of
subscription attached as Exhibit A hereto (the "Subscription Form") duly
executed by such Holder and surrender of the original Warrant within seven (7)
days of exercise, to the Company at its principal office or at the office of its
Warrant Agent (as provided hereinafter), accompanied by payment, in cash, wire
transfer, or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the
Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable by the Purchase Price then in
effect.
1.3. PARTIAL EXERCISE. This Warrant may be exercised in part (but
not for a fractional share) by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at
the place provided in Subsection 1.2 except that the amount payable by the
Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a)
the number of whole shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the
Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect. On any such partial
exercise, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or
upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of
the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may request, the whole number of shares of Common
Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.
1.4. NET ISSUE EXERCISE. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to
the contrary, if the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater
than the Purchase Price at the Determination Date, in lieu of exercising this
Warrant for cash in the manner set forth in Sections 1.2 or 1.3 or in exchange
for other shares of Common Stock in the manner set forth in Section 1.5, the
Holder may elect to receive shares of Common Stock equal to the value (as
determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with
the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise and notice of such election in which
event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock
computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A-B)
-------
A
Where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the
Holder
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant
is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being
canceled at the Determination Date
A = the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company's
Common Stock at the Determination Date
B = Purchase Price as of the Determination Date
-2-
1.5. PAYMENT UTILIZING SHARES. Notwithstanding any provisions herein
to the contrary, in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash in the manner set
forth in Sections 1.2 or 1.3 or in utilizing the net issue exercise method in
the manner set forth in Section 1.4, the Holder may elect to receive that number
of shares of Common Stock equivalent to the Fair Market Value at the
Determination Date of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock delivered
by the Holder to the Company (in certificated form, with the Holder's signature
bearing a medallion guarantee, all in a form that will enable the Company, then
and there, to return such shares to its treasury for cancellation) in payment
for the shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a
portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being
canceled at the Determination Date. For purposes of this Subsection 1.6, the
Determination Date shall be as of the date on which the Holder delivers the
Subscription Form and the share certificates with medallion guarantees, as
referenced below, in the manner and to the place referenced in Sections 1.2 or
1.3.
1.6. FAIR MARKET VALUE. Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock
as of a particular date (the "Determination Date") shall mean:
(a) If the Company's Common Stock is traded on a national
exchange or on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated
Quotation ("NASDAQ") National Market or the NASDAQ SmallCap Market, then the
closing or last sale price, respectively, reported for the last business day
immediately preceding the Determination Date;
(b) If the Company's Common Stock is not traded on a national
exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market or the NASDAQ SmallCap Market, but is
quoted in the over-the-counter market, then the average of the closing bid and
ask prices reported for the last business day immediately preceding the
Determination Date;
(c) Except as provided in clause (d) below, if the Company's
Common Stock is not publicly traded or quoted, then as the Holder and the
Company agree, or in the absence of such an agreement, by arbitration in
accordance with the rules then standing of the American Arbitration Association,
before a single arbitrator to be chosen from a panel of persons qualified by
education and training to pass on the matter to be decided; or
(d) If the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up pursuant to the Company's charter, then all amounts
to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter
in the event of such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, plus all other
amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in liquidation
under the charter, assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that all of the
shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all of the Warrants are
outstanding at the Determination Date.
1.7. COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The Company will, at the time of the
exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof acknowledge in
writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which
such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with
the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such
request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company
to afford to such Holder any such rights.
1.8. TRUSTEE FOR WARRANT HOLDERS. In the event that a bank or trust
company shall have been appointed as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants
pursuant to Subsection 2.2, such bank or trust company shall have all the powers
and duties of a warrant agent (as hereinafter described) and shall accept, in
its own name for the account of the Company or such successor person as may be
entitled thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such
successor,
-3-
as the case may be, on exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 1.
1.9. DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC. ON EXERCISE. The Company
agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof as the record owner of such
shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have
been surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any
event within five (5) days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the
payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name
of and delivered to the Holder hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such
Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with
applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly
and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, free
and clear of any liens or encumbrances, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to
which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction
multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share of Common Stock,
together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash,
where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant
to Section 1 or otherwise.
2. ADJUSTMENT FOR REORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC.
2.1. REORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC. In case at any time
or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b)
consolidate with or merge into any other person, (c) reclassify its shares of
capital stock in such a manner as would effect its Common Stock, or (d) transfer
all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under
any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in
each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper
and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this
Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the
consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger, or reclassification
or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in
lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior
to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and
property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon
such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if
such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all
subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 3.
2.2. DISSOLUTION. In the event of any dissolution of the Company
following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets,
the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to
be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants after the effective date of
such dissolution pursuant to this Section 2 to a bank or trust company (a
"Trustee") having its principal office in New York, New York, or in Los Angeles,
California, as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants, all as if such Holder had
so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior to such dissolution, all subject to
further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 3.
2.3. CONTINUATION OF TERMS. Upon any reorganization, consolidation,
merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in
this Section 2, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the
terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable
on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization,
consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such
transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other
Securities, including, in the case of any such
-4-
transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or
assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed
the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 3. In the event this Warrant
does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the
transaction described in this Section 2, then only in such event will the
Company's securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable
by the Holder of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by
Section 2.2.
2.4 SHARE ISSUANCE. If, on or before the Expiration Date of this
Warrant and prior to the complete exercise hereof, the Company shall issue any
shares of Common Stock (except for Excepted Issuances) for a consideration less
than the Purchase Price in effect at the time of such issuance, then, and
thereafter successively upon each such issuance, the Purchase Price shall be
reduced as follows: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance shall be multiplied by the Purchase Price in
effect at the time of such issuance and the product shall be added to the
aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance of
additional shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the sum so obtained shall be divided
by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
issuance. The resulting quotient shall be the adjusted Purchase Price. For
purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security of the Company
carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of
any warrant, right, or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an
adjustment to the Purchase Price upon the issuance of security, whether or not
the underlying shares of Common Stock have been issued due to the exercise of
such conversion or purchase rights; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, upon the expiration
of any such conversion or purchase rights that were not so exercised, the
Purchase Price then in effect shall be equitably increased (in the same manner
as was previously utilized) by an amount to reflect such lack of exercise.
3. EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS REGARDING COMMON STOCK. In the event that the
Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such
event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such
event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The
Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the
happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 3.
The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to
receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of
shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 3) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator
is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 3) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect
on the date of such exercise. The Company will use commercially reasonable
efforts to provide notice of any such extraordinary event not less than ten (10)
days prior to effective date of such event.
4. CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. In each case of any adjustment or
readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the
exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its
Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment
or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail
the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a
statement of (a) the consideration
-5-
received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b)
the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed
to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common
Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior
to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in
this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to
the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed
pursuant to Section 9 hereof).
5. RESERVATION OF STOCK, ETC. ISSUABLE ON EXERCISE OF WARRANT. The
Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and
delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.
6. ASSIGNMENT; EXCHANGE OF WARRANT. Subject to compliance with
applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may
be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor"). On the
surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor's endorsement in the
form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the "Transferor Endorsement Form") and
together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that
the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable securities
laws, the Company at its expense, twice, only, but with payment by the
Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes, will issue and deliver to or on the
order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the
name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor
Endorsement Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on the face or
faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or
faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor. No such transfers shall
result in a public distribution of the Warrant.
7. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT. On receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of
this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft, or destruction of this
Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such
mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its
expense, twice only, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of
like tenor.
8. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Holder of this Warrant has been granted
certain registration rights by the Company, as set forth in the Registration
Rights Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference.
9. WARRANT AGENT. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of
the Warrant, appoint an agent (a "Warrant Agent") for the purpose of issuing
Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to
Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 6, and replacing this
Warrant pursuant to Section 7, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such
issuance, exchange, or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such
office by such Warrant Agent.
10. TRANSFER ON THE COMPANY'S BOOKS. Until this Warrant is transferred
on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof
as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary.
11. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted under this Warrant shall
