WARRANT AGREEMENT
THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT, made this 13th day of October, 1993, by and
between TMP Worldwide Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and BNY
Financial Corporation, a New York corporation ("BNY").
W I T N E S S E T H :
WHEREAS, BNY and the Company have entered into an amended Financing
Agreement dated October 13, 1993 (the "Financing Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, in connection with the Financing Agreement, the Company has
agreed to issue to BNY the Warrant; and
WHEREAS, the parties desire to establish the terms upon which the
Warrant are to be issued and the obligations with respect thereto.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. As used herein, the following terms shall have the
following meanings, unless the context otherwise requires:
"Act" refers to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
"Common Stock" refers to the common stock, $.01 par value, of
the Company.
"Exercise Price" refers to an exercise price of $.01 per share
for each share of Underlying Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the
Warrant.
"Expiration Date" shall mean January 2, 1997.
"Initial Registration Notice" shall mean a notice given by the
Company to BNY of a proposed initial public offering by the Company of shares of
its Common Stock, as more fully described in Section Annex A.
"Warrant" shall mean the warrant issued to BNY on the date
hereof granting BNY the right to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock, at
the Exercise Price, equal to one percent of the number of issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock upon the sale of all the shares of Common Stock which
are included in the registration which is the subject of the Initial
Registration Notice, and any warrant or warrants issued in replacement thereof.
"Underlying Common Stock" refers to the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.
2. Issuance of Warrants. The Company hereby issues and delivers to
BNY a Warrant Certificate evidencing the Warrant. This Warrant shall become void
and all rights hereunder and all rights in respect hereof shall cease as of the
Expiration Date.
3. Exercise of Warrants. The Warrant may be exercised in whole or in
part by BNY in accordance with this Agreement at any time after the closing of
the sale of more than 90% of the shares of Common Stock which are included in
the registration statement which is the subject of the Initial Registration
Notice. Exercise shall be effected by surrender of the Warrant Certificate with
the form of subscription at the end thereof duly executed by BNY to the Company
at its principal offices, Attention: Corporate Secretary, accompanied by
payment, in cash or by certified or official bank check, to the order of the
Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common
Stock to be received on exercise by the Exercise Price. Upon any partial
exercise, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to BNY,
a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor in the name of
BNY, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the number of such shares stated on the face of
the Warrant Certificate being exercised minus the number of such shares
designated for exercise by BNY in the subscription at the end thereof. The
Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock; if
any fraction of a share of Common Stock would otherwise be issuable on the
exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall purchase such fraction for an amount
in cash equal to the same fraction of the Exercise Price.
4. Delivery of Certificates on Exercise. As soon as reasonably
practicable after the exercise of the Warrant, in whole or in part, and in any
event within ten (10) days thereafter, the Company, at its expense (including
the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes, federal or state), will cause
to be issued in the name of and delivered to BNY, a certificate or certificates
for the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which
BNY shall be entitled upon such exercise, plus in lieu of any fractional shares
to which BNY would otherwise be entitled, if any, cash equal to such fraction
multiplied by the then Exercise Price. Such certificate or certificates shall be
deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein
shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares as of the date
of surrender of such Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price.
2
5. Surrender of Unexercised Warrant. BNY shall have the right, in
the event that this Warrant shall not become exercisable prior to 10:00 a.m.
E.S.T. on the Expiration Date, to surrender the unexercised Warrant to the
Company at any time thereafter on the Expiration Date (or on any business day
subsequent thereto on at least ten day's prior notice to the Company) against
payment by the Company in immediately available funds of the sum of $500,000,
which amount may be paid by a charge to the Company's account at BNY.
6. Covenants of BNY. BNY represents that it is an "accredited
investor" (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the
Securities Act) and that it is purchasing the Warrant solely for its own account
and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with any distribution
of the Warrant or the Underlying Common Stock.
BNY further represents that it is knowledgeable, sophisticated
and experienced in business and financial matters; that it fully understands the
limitations on transfer in this Agreement; that it is able to bear the economic
risk of its investment in the Warrants and the Underlying Common Stock and is
presently able to afford the complete loss of such investment; that it has been
afforded access to information about the Company and the Company's financial
condition, results of operations, business, property, management and prospects
sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment in the Warrants and the
Underlying Common Stock; and that the Warrant Certificate and any Common Stock
issued upon exercise may bear substantially the following legend:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
"SECURITIES ACT") OR QUALIFIED UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS (THE "STATE ACTS"), HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY
NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT
PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND
QUALIFICATION UNDER THE STATE ACTS OR EXEMPTIONS FROM SUCH
REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS (INCLUDING, IN THE CASE
OF THE SECURITIES ACT, THE EXEMPTION AFFORDED BY RULE 144). UNLESS
WAIVED BY THE COMPANY, THE COMPANY SHALL BE FURNISHED WITH AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL OPINING AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF EXEMPTIONS FROM
SUCH REGISTRATION AND QUALIFICATION AS A PRECONDITION TO ANY SUCH
TRANSFER.
3
7. Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees that
the Company will reserve and keep available a sufficient number of shares of
Common Stock solely for issuance and delivery upon exercise of the Warrant by
BNY; that such shares, when issued and delivered, will have been duly authorized
and issued, fully paid and non-assessable; and that BNY shall have, in respect
of such shares, the registration rights set forth in Annex A.
The Company further covenants and agrees that if the product
of (a) the number of shares of Underlying Common Stock on the date this Warrant
first becomes exercisable and (b) the initial public offering price as set forth
in the effective registration statement which is the subject of the Initial
Registration Notice is less than $1,000,000 then the Company shall pay to BNY
within ten days thereafter an amount equal to such deficiency.
8. Adjustment of Exercise Price and the Number of Shares. The number
and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant shall be
subject to appropriate adjustment following the date on which the Warrant first
becomes exercisable to reflect dividends payable in Common Stock, stock splits
and combinations, recapitalizations and the like. No adjustment need be made for
shares or rights to acquire shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Company plan
for executive or employee incentive compensation or for reinvestment of
dividends or for a change in the par value of the Common Stock. No adjustment
need be made for any dividends payable other than in Common Stock.
8.1. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of shares of
Underlying Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is
adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail by first class
mail, postage prepaid, to BNY notice of such adjustment or adjustments and shall
deliver with such notice a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting
forth the number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and the
Exercise Price of such shares 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 certificate shall be
conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment unless there is
manifest error in the calculation.
8.2. Rights Upon Merger, Consolidation, etc. In case of any
consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company into a corporation or
other person, the successor corporation shall execute an agreement that BNY
shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Exercise Price, to purchase
upon exercise of the Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities
and property (including cash) which it would have owned or have been entitled to
receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action.
4
9. No Limitation on Corporation Action. No provisions of this
Warrant and no right or option granted or conferred hereunder shall in any way
limit, affect or abridge the exercise by the Company of any of its corporate
rights or powers to recapitalize, amend its Articles of Incorporation,
reorganize, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation, or to
transfer all or any part of its property or assets, or the exercise of any other
of its corporate rights and powers.
10. Transfer of Warrant. In addition to the other transfer
restrictions set forth herein, the Warrant shall not be pledged, transferred or
otherwise disposed of in whole or in part, nor any rights hereunder or under
Annex A assigned or transferred, except to an entity controlling, controlled by
or under common control with BNY.
11. Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the
Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery
of an indemnity bond reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company
or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such
Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof,
a new Warrant or new Warrants of like tenor.
12. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
Company and its successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit
of BNY and its successors and permitted assigns.
13. Notices. Any notice from one party to the other shall be in
writing and either delivered personally or by certified or registered mail,
postage prepaid, or by telegram, telecopier, or by overnight mail delivery by a
nationally recognized courier, and shall be deemed given when so delivered
personally or, if mailed or given by telegram or telecopier or overnight mail,
upon receipt thereof by the addressee.
14. Miscellaneous. This Warrant Agreement or any of the terms hereof
may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in
writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver,
discharge or termination is sought. No waiver of a breach of, or default under,
any provision of this Warrant Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of such
provisions of any subsequent breach or default of the same or similar nature or
of any provisions or condition of this Warrant Agreement. This Warrant Agreement
shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the state of New York. The headings in this Warrant Agreement are for purposes
of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms
hereof. This
5
Warrant Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one
instrument.

ANNEX A
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
(a) If, at any time prior to January 2, 1997 the Company
proposes to register in an initial public offering any of its securities under
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") (other than securities to be
issued pursuant to a stock option or other employee benefit or similar plan),
the Company shall, promptly give written notice (the "Initial Registration
Notice") to BNY of the Company's intention to effect such registration. BNY
shall have no right to have any shares of Common Stock of the Company, or any
other security of the Company which BNY may own, included in such registration
statement. If, following the completion of its initial public offering and the
sale of all of the shares of Common Stock offered, and prior to January 2, 1997,
the Company proposes to register any other offering of shares of its Common
Stock (other than securities to be issued pursuant to a stock option or other
employee benefit or similar plan) the Company shall similarly give a
Registration Notice to BNY. If, within 15 days after receipt of such notice, BNY
submits a written request to the Company specifying the number of shares of
Common Stock which it will receive upon exercise of the Warrant and which it
proposes to sell or otherwise dispose of, (the "Subject Stock") the Company
shall include the Subject Stock in such registration statement. The Company
shall keep each registration statement covering any Subject Stock in effect for
a period of not less than 90 days following the effectiveness of such
registration statement and maintain compliance with each federal and state law
and regulation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the offering of the Company's
securities pursuant to such registration statement is to be made by or through
underwriters, the Company shall not be required to include Subject Stock therein
if and to the extent that the underwriter managing the offering advises the
Company in writing that such inclusion would materially adversely affect such
offering and, in such event, the Company may delay registration of the Subject
Stock for a period of not more than 30 days after completion of the distribution
of securities being underwritten on behalf of the Company (but in no event for
more than 180 days after the registration statement first becomes effective) and
the Company shall thereupon promptly file such supplements and post-effective
amendments and take such other steps as may be necessary to permit BNY to make
its proposed offering following the end of such period of delay.
(b) In connection with any offering of shares of Subject Stock
registered pursuant to this Annex A the Company (i) shall furnish to BNY such
number of copies of each registration statement, each prospectus and each
preliminary prospectus, and of each amendment and supplement to any thereof as
BNY may reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of the
Subject Stock to be offered and sold, but only while the Company shall be
required under the provisions hereof to cause the registration statement to
remain current and (ii)
take such action as shall be necessary to qualify the shares covered by such
registration statement under such blue sky or other state securities laws for
offer and sale as BNY shall request; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corporation to do business
under the laws of any jurisdiction in which it shall not then be qualified or
to file any general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction in
which such a consent has not been previously filed. The Company shall enter
into an underwriting agreement (the "Agreement") with a managing underwriter
or underwriters selected by it containing representations, warranties,
indemnities and agreements then customarily included by an issuer in
underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions and BNY
agrees as a condition to participation in such offering to make such
representations and warranties with respect to information as to it as
selling stockholder, and as to its holdings, which is furnished in writing to
the underwriter for use in the registration statement as are customary and
appropriate. In connection with any offering of Subject Stock registered
pursuant to this Annex A, the Company shall furnish to the underwriter, at
the Company's expense, unlegended certificates representing ownership of the
Subject Stock being sold in such denominations as requested and instruct any
transfer agent and registrar of the Subject Stock to release any stop
transfer orders with respect to such Subject Stock.
(c) In connection with any registration pursuant to this Annex
A all expenses of registration shall be borne by the Company (unless contrary to
the federal securities laws or the laws of any state where the Subject Stock is
to be offered), provided, however, in connection with any such registration, BNY
shall be obligated to pay any and all underwriter's commissions and filing fees
incurred by the Company, to the extent that such fees and commissions would not
have been so incurred in the absence of the registration of such Subject Stock.
Under no circumstances shall the company have any liability for any fees and
expenses of underwriters, counsel, accountants or other agents of BNY with
respect to any registration statement filed pursuant hereto, including but not
limited to the costs of any investigations by or on behalf of BNY of the
accuracy and completeness of such registration statement or related to the
furnishing of information by BNY in connection with such registration statement.
(d) For a period of ninety (90) days from and after the
effective date of any registration statement filed pursuant hereto in which any
of the Subject Stock is included, the Company shall from time to time amend or
supplement the registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to permit such sale and disposition and to the
extent necessary in order to keep such registration statement effective and such
prospectus current under the Act so that neither the registration statement nor
the prospectus contains any untrue statement as to any material fact, omits any
statements necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading.
(e) In the case of any offering registered pursuant to this
Annex A, the company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless BNY and each
controlling person of BNY within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act, and the directors and officers of BNY, against any and all losses, claims,
damages or liabilities to which they or any of them may become subject under the
Securities Act or any other statute or common law or otherwise, and to reimburse
them, from time to time upon request, for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them in connection with investigating any claims and defending any
actions, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions
shall arise out of or shall be based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement contained in the registration statement relating to the sale of
such Subject Stock in any preliminary prospectus or in any prospectus or in any
supplement or amendment to any of the foregoing of a material fact, or the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) any failure or
omission on the part of the Company to comply with any provision of the Act and
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (or other
Federal agency at the time charged with administration of the Act) applicable to
such offering; provided, however, that the indemnification agreement contained
in this paragraph (e) shall not apply to such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or actions which shall arise from the sale of Subject Stock if such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions shall arise out of or shall be
based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any such
omission or alleged omission, if such statement or omission shall have been made
in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the
Company by BNY specifically for use in connection with the preparation of the
registration statement or any preliminary prospectus or prospectus contained in
the registration statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto.
(f) In connection with any registration statement in which BNY
is participating, BNY will indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the
Company and its directors and officers against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses resulting solely by reason of any untrue statement of a
material fact or any omission of a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, in the registration statement or any
prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, but
only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in, or such omission
is omitted from, information so furnished to the Company by BNY in writing;
provided, however, that BNY shall not be liable in the aggregate for any amounts
exceeding the product of the sale price per share of Subject Stock of BNY sold
in such registered offering and the number of shares of Subject Stock sold
pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus by BNY.
(g) Each party indemnified under paragraph (e) or (f) of this
Annex A shall, promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any
action against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be
sought
hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof.
The omission of any indemnified party to so notify an indemnifying party of any
such action shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability in
respect of such action which it may have to such indemnified party on account of
the indemnity agreement contained in paragraph (e) or (f) of this Annex A,
unless the indemnifying party was prejudiced by such omission, and in no event
shall relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability which it may have
to such indemnified party. In case any such action shall be brought against any
indemnified party arid it shall notify an indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to
the extent that it may desire to assume the defense thereof through counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense
thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party
under paragraph (e) or (f) of this Annex A for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation (unless such indemnified
party reasonably objects to such assumption on the grounds that there may be
defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to such
indemnifying party in which event the indemnified party shall be reimbursed by
the indemnifying party for the expenses incurred in connection with retaining
separate legal counsel).
(h) Nothing in paragraph (e) or (f) of this Annex A shall
prevent the indemnified party from retaining counsel of its own choosing, at its
own expense, to defend or cooperate in the defense or investigation of any claim
in respect of which indemnification is available hereunder. No indemnifying
party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which
does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or
plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect
to such claim or litigation.
