1. PURCHASE OPTION.
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, in consideration of $100.00 duly paid by or on behalf
of Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Incorporated ("HOLDER"), as registered owner of this
Purchase Option, to Acquisition Corp. ("COMPANY"), Holder is entitled, at any
time or from time to time upon the later of the consummation of a Business
Combination or ____________, 2007 ("COMMENCEMENT DATE"), and at or before 5:00
p.m., New York City local time, ____________, 2011 ("EXPIRATION DATE"), but not
thereafter, to subscribe for, purchase and receive, in whole or in part, up to
Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) units ("UNITS") of the Company, each Unit
consisting of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $.0001 per
share ("COMMON STOCK"), and two warrants ("WARRANT(S)") expiring four years from
the effective date ("EFFECTIVE DATE") of the registration statement
("REGISTRATION STATEMENT") pursuant to which Units are offered for sale to the
public ("OFFERING"). Each Warrant is the same as the warrants included in the
Units being registered for sale to the public by way of the Registration
Statement ("PUBLIC WARRANTS"). If the Expiration Date is a day on which banking
institutions are authorized by law to close, then this Purchase Option may be
exercised on the next succeeding day which is not such a day in accordance with
the terms herein. During the period ending on the Expiration Date, the Company
agrees not to take any action that would terminate the Purchase Option. This
Purchase Option is initially exercisable at $7.50 per Unit so purchased;
provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in
Section 6 hereof, the rights granted by this Purchase Option, including the
exercise price per Unit and the number of Units (and shares of Common Stock and
Warrants) to be received upon such exercise, shall be adjusted as therein
specified. The term "EXERCISE PRICE" shall mean the initial exercise price or
the adjusted exercise price, depending on the context.
2. EXERCISE.
2.1 Exercise Form. In order to exercise this Purchase Option, the exercise
form attached hereto must be duly executed and completed and delivered to the
Company, together with this Purchase Option and payment of the Exercise Price
for the Units being purchased payable in cash or by certified check or official
bank check. If the subscription rights represented hereby shall not be exercised
at or before 5:00 p.m., New York City local time, on the Expiration Date this
Purchase Option shall become and be void without further force or effect, and
all rights represented hereby shall cease and expire.
2.2 Legend. Each certificate for the securities purchased under this
Purchase Option shall bear a legend as follows unless such securities have been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("ACT"):
"The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("ACT") or applicable state law.
The securities may not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred except
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act, or pursuant to an
exemption from registration under the Act and applicable state law."
2.3 Cashless Exercise.
2.3.1 Determination of Amount. In lieu of the payment of the Exercise Price
multiplied by the number of Units for which this Purchase Option is exercisable
and in lieu of being entitled to receive Units in the manner required by Section
2.1, the Holder shall have the right (but not the obligation) to convert any
exercisable but unexercised portion of this Purchase Option into Units
("CONVERSION RIGHT") as follows: upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the
Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any of the
Exercise Price in cash) that number of Units equal to the quotient obtained by
dividing (x) the "Value" (as defined below) of the portion of the Purchase
Option being converted by (y) the "Current Market Price" (as defined below). The
"Value" of the portion of the Purchase Option being converted shall equal the
remainder derived from subtracting (a) (i) the Exercise Price of a Unit
multiplied by (ii) the number of Units underlying the portion of this Purchase
Option being converted from (b) the Current Market Price of a Unit multiplied by
the number of Units underlying the portion of the Purchase Option being
converted.
The "Current Market Price" of a Unit at any date shall mean: (i) if the
Units are listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq
National Market, Nasdaq SmallCap Market or NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor
such as the Bulletin Board Exchange), the average closing price of a Unit for
the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the date of determination of
the Current Market Price in the principal trading market for the Units as
reported by the exchange, Nasdaq or the NASD, as the case may be; (ii) if the
Units are not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq
National Market, Nasdaq SmallCap Market or the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or
successor such as the Bulletin Board Exchange), but is traded in the residual
over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for a Unit on the last trading
day preceding the date in question for which such quotations are reported by the
Pink Sheets, LLC or similar publisher of such quotations; and (iii) if the fair
market value of the Units cannot be determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii)
above, such price as the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in
good faith.
2.3.2 Mechanics of Cashless Exercise. The Cashless Exercise Right may be
exercised by the Holder on any business day on or after the Commencement Date
and not later than the Expiration Date by delivering the Purchase Option with
the duly executed exercise form attached hereto with the cashless exercise
section completed to the Company, exercising the Cashless Exercise Right and
specifying the total number of Units the Holder will purchase pursuant to such
Cashless Exercise Right.
3. TRANSFER.
3.1 General Restrictions. The registered Holder of this Purchase Option, by
its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or
hypothecate this Purchase Option for a period of one year following the
Effective Date to anyone other than (i) FBW or an underwriter or a selected
dealer in connection with the Offering, or (ii) a bona fide officer or partner
of FBW or of any such underwriter or selected dealer. On and after the first
anniversary of the Effective Date, transfers to others may be made subject to
compliance with or exemptions from applicable securities laws. In order to make
any permitted assignment, the Holder must deliver to the Company the assignment
form attached hereto duly executed and completed, together with the Purchase
Option and payment of all transfer taxes, if any, payable in connection
therewith. The Company shall within five business days transfer this Purchase
Option on the books of the Company and shall execute and deliver a new Purchase
Option or Purchase Options of like tenor to the appropriate assignee(s)
expressly evidencing the right to purchase the aggregate number of Units
purchasable hereunder or such portion of such number as shall be contemplated by
any such assignment.
3.2 Restrictions Imposed by the Act. The securities evidenced by this
Purchase Option shall not be transferred unless and until (i) the Company has
received the opinion of counsel for the Holder that the securities
2
may be transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act and
applicable state securities laws, the availability of which is established to
the reasonable satisfaction of the Company (the Company hereby agreeing that the
opinion of Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx shall be deemed satisfactory evidence
of the availability of an exemption), or (ii) a registration statement or a
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement relating to such
securities has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") and compliance with
applicable state securities law has been established.
4. NEW PURCHASE OPTIONS TO BE ISSUED.
4.1 Partial Exercise or Transfer. Subject to the restrictions in Section 3
hereof, this Purchase Option may be exercised or assigned in whole or in part.
In the event of the exercise or assignment hereof in part only, upon surrender
of this Purchase Option for cancellation, together with the duly executed
exercise or assignment form and funds sufficient to pay any Exercise Price
and/or transfer tax, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Holder
without charge a new Purchase Option of like tenor to this Purchase Option in
the name of the Holder evidencing the right of the Holder to purchase the number
of Units purchasable hereunder as to which this Purchase Option has not been
exercised or assigned.
4.2 Lost Certificate. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Purchase Option and
of reasonably satisfactory indemnification or the posting of a bond, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Option of like tenor and date. Any such
new Purchase Option executed and delivered as a result of such loss, theft,
mutilation or destruction shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation
on the part of the Company.
5. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
6. ADJUSTMENTS.
6.1 Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Securities. The Exercise
Price and the number of Units underlying the Purchase Option shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth:
6.1.1 Stock Dividends -- Split-Ups. If after the date hereof, and subject
to the provisions of Section 6.4 below, the number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock
or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the
effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock underlying each of
the Units purchasable hereunder shall be increased in proportion to such
increase in outstanding shares. In such case, the number of shares of Common
Stock, and the exercise price applicable thereto, underlying the Warrants
underlying each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted in
accordance with the terms of the Warrants. For example, if the Company declares
a two-for-one stock dividend and at the time of such dividend this Purchase
Option is for the purchase of one Unit at $7.50 per whole Unit (each Warrant
underlying the Units is exercisable for $6.25 per share), upon effectiveness of
the dividend, this Purchase Option will be adjusted to allow for the purchase of
one Unit at $7.50 per Unit, each Unit entitling the holder to receive two shares
of Common Stock and four Warrants (each Warrant exercisable for $3.125 per
share).
6.1.2 Aggregation of Shares. If after the date hereof, and subject to the
provisions of Section 6.4, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is
decreased by a consolidation, combination or reclassification of shares of
Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date thereof, the
number of shares of Common Stock underlying each of the Units purchasable
hereunder shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding
shares. In such case, the number of shares of Common Stock, and the exercise
price applicable thereto, underlying the Warrants underlying each of the Units
purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the
Warrants.
6.1.3 Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any
reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
other than a change covered by Section 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 hereof or that solely
affects the par value of such shares of Common Stock, or in the case of any
merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization
of the
3
outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to
another corporation or entity of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved,
the Holder of this Purchase Option shall have the right thereafter (until the
expiration of the right of exercise of this Purchase Option) to receive upon the
exercise hereof, for the same aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder
immediately prior to such event, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other
securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification,
reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any
such sale or transfer, by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of
the Company obtainable upon exercise of this Purchase Option and the underlying
Warrants immediately prior to such event; and if any reclassification also
results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by Section 6.1.1 or 6.1.2,
then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Sections 6.1.1, 6.1.2 and this
Section 6.1.3. The provisions of this Section 6.1.3 shall similarly apply to
successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales
or other transfers.
6.1.4 Changes in Form of Purchase Option. This form of Purchase Option need
not be changed because of any change pursuant to this Section, and Purchase
Options issued after such change may state the same Exercise Price and the same
number of Units as are stated in the Purchase Options initially issued pursuant
to this Agreement. The acceptance by any Holder of the issuance of new Purchase
Options reflecting a required or permissive change shall not be deemed to waive
any rights to an adjustment occurring after the Commencement Date or the
computation thereof.
6.2 [Intentionally Omitted]
6.3 Substitute Purchase Option. In case of any consolidation of the Company
with, or merger of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another
corporation (other than a consolidation or merger which does not result in any
reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock), the corporation
formed by such consolidation or merger shall execute and deliver to the Holder a
supplemental Purchase Option providing that the holder of each Purchase Option
then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right thereafter (until the
stated expiration of such Purchase Option) to receive, upon exercise of such
Purchase Option, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable upon such consolidation or merger, by a holder of the number
of shares of Common Stock of the Company for which such Purchase Option might
have been exercised immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or
transfer. Such supplemental Purchase Option shall provide for adjustments which
shall be identical to the adjustments provided in Section 6. The above provision
of this Section shall similarly apply to successive consolidations or mergers.
6.4 Elimination of Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required
to issue certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock or
Warrants upon the exercise of the Purchase Option, nor shall it be required to
issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of any fractional interests, it being the intent
of the parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any
fraction up to the nearest whole number of Warrants, shares of Common Stock or
other securities, properties or rights.
7. RESERVATION AND LISTING. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep
available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose
of issuance upon exercise of the Purchase Options or the Warrants underlying the
Purchase Option, such number of shares of Common Stock or other securities,
properties or rights as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company
covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of the Purchase Options and payment of
the Exercise Price therefor, all shares of Common Stock and other securities
issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable and not subject to preemptive rights of any stockholder. The
Company further covenants and agrees that upon exercise of the Warrants
underlying the Purchase Options and payment of the respective Warrant exercise
price therefor, all shares of Common Stock and other securities issuable upon
such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
and not subject to preemptive rights of any stockholder. As long as the Purchase
Options shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause
all (i) Units and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Purchase
Options, (ii) Warrants issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Options and (iii)
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants included in the
Units issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Option to be listed (subject to
official notice of issuance) on all securities exchanges (or, if applicable on
the Nasdaq National Market, SmallCap Market, OTC Bulletin Board or any successor
trading market) on which the Units, the Common Stock or the Public Warrants
issued to the public in connection herewith may then be listed and/or quoted.

dividend or distribution on the books of the Company, or (ii) the Company shall
offer to all the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of capital
stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares
of capital stock of the Company, or any option, right or warrant to subscribe

make any other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising hereunder
that the Company and FBW may deem necessary or desirable and that the Company

provisions herein contained.
9.5 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Purchase Option shall
be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
