From and after the Warrant Issuance Date and until 5:00 P.M., Joplin, Missouri time, on the Expiration Date, Holder may exercise this Warrant, on any Business Day, for all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, Holder shall:
(a) deliver to the Company at the office or agency designated by the Company pursuant to Section 13, (i) a written notice of Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased, (ii) payment by cash, check or bank draft payable to the Company of the Warrant Price in cash or by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank for all shares then being purchased and (iii) this Warrant. Such notice shall be substantially in the form of the subscription form appearing at the end of this Warrant as Exhibit 1, duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon receipt of the items referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, execute or cause to be executed and deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as Holder shall request in the notice and shall be registered in the name of Holder or, subject to Section 9, such other name as shall be designated in the notice. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates 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 Warrant Price. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Stock, 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.
The Holder shall be entitled to exercise the Warrant notwithstanding the commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C. § 101 et seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”). In the event the Company is a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. § 362 in respect of the Holder’s exercise right. The Company hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. § 362 in respect of the exercise of the Warrant. The Company agrees, without cost or expense to the Holder, to take or consent to any and all action necessary to effectuate relief under 11 U.S.C. § 362.
2.2. Payment of Taxes and Charges. All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and without any preemptive rights. The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issue or delivery thereof.

2.3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of any 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 same fraction of the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the relevant exercise date.
2.4. Continued Validity. A holder of shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part (other than a holder who acquires such shares after the same have been publicly sold pursuant to a Registration Statement under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144 thereunder), shall continue to be entitled with respect to such shares to all rights to which it would have been entitled as Holder under Sections 9, 10 and 15 of this Warrant. The Company will, at the time of exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, upon the request of Holder, acknowledge in writing, in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, its continuing obligation to afford Holder all such rights; provided, however, that if Holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to Holder all such rights.
3. |
TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION |
3.1. Transfer. Subject to compliance with Section 9, 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 referred to in Section 2.1 or the office or agency designated by the Company pursuant to Section 13, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form of Exhibit 2 hereto duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon such surrender, the Company shall, subject to Section 9, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination 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 in compliance with Section 9, may be exercised by a new Holder for the purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.
3.2. Division and Combination. Subject to Section 9, this Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office or agency 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 3.1 and with Section 9, 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.
3.3. Expenses. The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 3.

4. |
ADJUSTMENTS |
The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, or the price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Company shall give Holder notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 at the time of such event.
4.1. Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. If at any time the Company shall:
(a) take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, Additional Shares of Common Stock,
(b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or
(c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock,
then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event, and (ii) the Current Warrant Price shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Current Warrant Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.
4.2. Certain Other Distributions. In case the Company shall issue any Common Stock or any rights, options or warrants to all holders of record of its Common Stock entitling all holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such issue, the Current Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for such determination shall be reduced to the amount determined by multiplying such Current Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such Market Price and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such reduced amount to become effective immediately after the close of business on the date fixed for such determination. For the purposes of this clause (i) the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the
6
Company and (ii) in the case of any rights, options or warrants which expire by their terms not more than 60 days after the date of issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof, no adjustment of the Current Warrant Price shall be made until the expiration or exercise of all rights, options or warrants, whereupon such adjustment shall be made in the manner provided in this clause, but only with respect to the shares of Common Stock actually issued pursuant thereto. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event specified above shall occur. In the event that any or all rights, options or warrants covered by this clause are not so issued or expire or terminate before being exercised, the Current Warrant Price then in effect shall be appropriately readjusted.
4.3 Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Current Warrant Price provided for in this Section 4:
(a) When Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.
(b) Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to the nearest 1/10th of a share.
(c) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.
(d) Challenge to Good Faith Determination. Whenever the Board of Directors of the Company shall be required to make a determination in good faith of the fair value of any item under this Section 4, such determination may be challenged in good faith by the Holder, and any dispute shall be resolved by an investment banking firm of recognized national standing selected by the Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company.
(e) Proceeding Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, the Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock which the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise hereof.
4.4. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate
7
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 the 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, subject to the Holder’s consent, 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 4. For purposes of this Section 4.4, “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 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
4.5. Other Action Affecting Common Stock. In case at any time or from time to time the Company shall take any action in respect of its Common Stock, other than any action taken in the ordinary course of the Company’s business or any action described in this Section 4, which would have a material adverse effect upon the rights of the Holder, the number of shares of Common Stock and/or the purchase price thereof shall be adjusted in such manner as may be equitable in the circumstances, as determined in good faith by an investment bank selected by Holder.
4.6. Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company agrees not to enter into any transaction which, by reason of any adjustment hereunder, would cause the Current Warrant Price to be less than the par value per share of Common Stock.
4.7. No Stockholder Rights. Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Warrant Stock, including (without limitation) the right to vote such Warrant Stock, receive dividends or other distributions thereon, exercise preemptive rights or be notified of stockholder meetings, and such Holder shall not be entitled to any notice or other communication concerning the business or affairs of the
8
Company by reason of this Warrant. However, nothing in this Section 4.7 shall limit the right of the Holder to be provided the notices required under this Warrant.
5. |
NOTICES TO HOLDER |
5.1. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, or whenever the price at which a share of such Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of the Warrants, shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall forthwith prepare a certificate to be executed by an executive officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and describing the number and kind of any other shares of stock or Other Property for which this Warrant is exercisable, and any change in the purchase price or prices thereof, after giving effect to such adjustment or change. The Company shall promptly cause a signed copy of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder in accordance with Section 15.2. The Company shall keep at its office or agency designated pursuant to Section 13 copies of all such certificates and cause the same to be available for inspection at said office during normal business hours by the Holder, its representatives, or any prospective purchaser of a Warrant designated by the Holder.
|
5.2. |
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 (whether in cash, 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 of any nature whatsoever, or to receive any warrants or other rights including, without limitation, rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its stock or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever), 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;
then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at least thirty (30) Business 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, dissolution, 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 thirty (30) Business 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
9
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 reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, 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 15.2.
A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section 4.1.
6. |
NO IMPAIRMENT |
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 its best 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.
7. |
RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK |
From and after the Closing Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issue upon the exercise of Warrants such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All shares of Common Stock which shall be so issuable, when issued upon exercise of
10
any Warrant and payment therefor in accordance with the terms of such Warrant, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive rights.
Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Current Warrant 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 Current Warrant 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 Current Warrant 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.
8. |
TAKING OF RECORD; STOCK AND WARRANT TRANSFER BOOKS |
In the case of all dividends or other distributions by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock with respect to which any provision of Section 4 refers to the taking of a record of such holders, the Company will in each such case take such a record as of the close of business on a Business Day. The Company will not at any time close its stock transfer books or Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise or transfer of any Warrant.
9. |
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY |
The Warrants and the Warrant Stock shall not be transferred, hypothecated or assigned before satisfaction of the conditions specified in this Section 9, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Transfer of any Warrant or any Warrant Stock. Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.
9.1. Restrictive Legend. The Holder by accepting this Warrant and any Warrant Stock agrees that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise hereof may not be assigned or otherwise transferred unless and until (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel for the Holder that such securities may be sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act or (ii) a registration statement relating to such securities has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the Commission.
(a) Each certificate for Warrant Stock issuable hereunder shall bear a legend substantially worded as follows unless such securities have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act:
“The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or any state securities laws. The securities may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned, offered, transferred or otherwise distributed for value except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or any state securities laws or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from registration or
11
prospectus delivery requirements under the Act or any state securities laws in respect of which the Company has received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to such effect. Copies of the agreement covering both the purchase of the securities and restricting their transfer may be obtained at no cost by written request made by the holder of record of this certificate to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company.”
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, this Warrant shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
“This Warrant and the securities represented hereby have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and may not be transferred in violation of such Act, the rules and regulations thereunder or any state securities laws or the provisions of this Warrant.”
9.2. Notice of Proposed Transfers. Prior to any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Warrants or any shares of Restricted Common Stock, the Holder shall give five (5) days’ prior written notice (a “Transfer Notice”) to the Company of Holder’s intention to effect such Transfer, describing the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer, and obtain from counsel to Holder an opinion that the proposed Transfer of such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock may be effected without registration under the Securities Act or state securities laws. After the Company’s receipt of the Transfer Notice and opinion, such Holder shall thereupon be entitled to Transfer such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Transfer Notice. Each certificate, if any, evidencing such shares of Restricted Common Stock issued upon such Transfer and the Warrant issued upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive legends set forth in Section 9.1, unless in the opinion of such counsel such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.
9.3. Termination of Restrictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 9, the restrictions imposed by this Section upon the transferability of the Warrants, the Warrant Stock and the Restricted Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) and the legend requirements of Section 9.1 shall terminate as to any particular Warrant or share of Warrant Stock or Restricted Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) (i) when and so long as such security shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and disposed of pursuant thereto or (ii) when the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel that such shares may be transferred without registration thereof under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Whenever the restrictions imposed by Section 9 shall terminate as to this Warrant, as hereinabove provided, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company upon written request of the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Warrant bearing the following legend in place of the restrictive legend set forth hereon:
“THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE WITHIN WARRANT CONTAINED IN SECTION 9 HEREOF
12
TERMINATED ON ________, 20__, AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT.”
All Warrants issued upon registration of transfer, division or combination of, or in substitution for, any Warrant or Warrants entitled to bear such legend shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon. Whenever the restrictions imposed by this Section shall terminate as to any share of Restricted Common Stock, as hereinabove provided, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, at the Company’s expense, a new certificate representing such Common Stock not bearing the restrictive legends set forth in Section 9.1.
9.4. Listing on Securities Exchange. If the Company shall list any shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange, it will, at its expense, list thereon, maintain and, when necessary, increase such listing of, all shares of Common Stock issued or, to the extent permissible under the applicable securities exchange rules, issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant so long as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed during the Exercise Period.
