WARRANT
-----------------
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, Liolios Group, Inc. (the
"Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations
on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, to subscribe for
and purchase from Synergy Resources Corporation, (the "Company"), up to
50,000 shares (the "Warrant Shares") of Common Stock of the Company
(the "Common Stock"). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock
(the "Exercise Price") under this Warrant is $2.69.
Warrants to purchase 25,000 Warrant Shares must be exercised prior to
September 30, 2015 and Warrants to purchase 25,000 Warrant Shares must
be exercised prior to December 31, 2015. September 30, 2015 and
December 31, 2015 are each a "Termination Date".
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 in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant
to the Company.
2. Authorization of Shares. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares
which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase 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. Exercise of this Warrant may be made on or before
the Termination Date 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
1
registered Holder 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 or by means of
a cashless exercise, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for
the number of Warrant Shares so purchased.
Exercise of this Warrant may also by made by means of a "Cashless
Exercise" as provided in Section 4 of the Financial Public Relations Agreement
between the Company and the Holder dated July 1, 2012.
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 such fraction multiplied by
the Exercise Price.
5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares
shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or
other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of
which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates
shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be
directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder,
this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the
Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder; and the Company may
require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it
for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
Transfer, Division and Combination. 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 the Holder or its
agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon
the making of such transfer. In the event that the Holder wishes to transfer a
portion of this Warrant, the Holder shall transfer at least 1,000 shares
underlying this Warrant to any such transferee. 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 Warrant Shares without
having a new Warrant issued.
7. No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle
the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company
prior to the exercise hereof.
8. 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 or any stock
2
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.
9. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. 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) subdivide its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (ii) combine
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common
Stock, or (iii) 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
shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other
securities of the Company which it 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 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.
10. 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 the 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
3
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 Warrant Shares
for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 10.
11. Arbitration. Any dispute in any way involving this Warrant will be
settled by binding arbitration in Denver, Colorado in accordance with the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by
its officer thereunto duly authorized.
This Warrant is effective: July 1, 2012
