Genesys, Inc.
Form
of Depositary Shares Warrant
Agreement
DEPOSITARY
SHARES WARRANT AGREEMENT,
dated as of
between Cell Genesys, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “COMPANY”) and
,
a [corporation] [national banking association] organized and existing under
the
laws of
and having a corporate trust office in
,
as warrant agent (the “WARRANT AGENT”).
WHEREAS,
the Company proposes to
sell [if Warrants are sold with other securities — [title of such other
securities being offered] (the “OTHER SECURITIES”) with] warrant certificates
evidencing one or more warrants (the “WARRANTS” or, individually, a “WARRANT”)
representing the right to purchase [title of Depositary Shares purchasable
through exercise of Warrants] (the “WARRANT SECURITIES”), such warrant
certificates and other warrant certificates issued pursuant to this Agreement
being herein called the “WARRANT CERTIFICATES”; and
WHEREAS,
the Company desires the
Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing
so to act, in connection with the issuance, registration, transfer, exchange,
exercise and replacement of the Warrant Certificates, and in this Agreement
wishes to set forth, among other things, the form and provisions of the Warrant
Certificates and the terms and conditions on which they may be issued,
registered, transferred, exchanged, exercised and replaced;
NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of
the premises and of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto
agree as follows:
ARTICLE
1
ISSUANCE
OF WARRANTS AND EXECUTION
AND
DELIVERY
OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES
1.1
ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS. [If
Warrants alone — Upon issuance, each Warrant Certificate shall evidence one or
more Warrants.] [If Other Securities and Warrants — Warrants shall be
[initially] issued in connection with the issuance of the Other Securities
[but
shall be separately transferable on and after
(the “DETACHABLE DATE”)] [and shall not be separately transferable] and each
Warrant Certificate shall evidence one or more Warrants.] Each Warrant evidenced
thereby shall represent the right, subject to the provisions contained herein
and therein, to purchase one Warrant Security. [If Other Securities and Warrants
— Warrant Certificates shall be initially issued in units with the Other
Securities and each Warrant Certificate included in such a unit shall evidence
Warrants for each
[$
principal amount]
[
shares] of Other Securities included in such unit.]
1.2
EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF
WARRANT CERTIFICATES. Each Warrant Certificate, whenever issued, shall be in
registered form substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, shall
be dated the date of its countersignature by the Warrant Agent and may have
such
letters, numbers, or other marks of identification or designation and such
legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as the
officers of the Company executing the same may approve (execution thereof to
be
conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law
or
with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation
of any securities exchange on which the Warrants may be listed, or to conform
to
usage. The Warrant Certificates shall be signed on behalf of the Company by
any
of its present or future chief executive officers, presidents, senior vice
presidents, vice presidents, chief financial officers, chief legal officers,
treasurers, assistant treasurers, controllers, assistant controllers,
secretaries or assistant secretaries under its corporate seal reproduced
thereon. Such signatures may be manual or facsimile signatures of such
authorized officers and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant
Certificates. The seal of the Company may be in the form of a facsimile thereof
and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant
Certificates.
No
Warrant Certificate shall be
valid for any purpose, and no Warrant evidenced thereby shall be exercisable,
until such Warrant Certificate has been countersigned by the manual signature
of
the Warrant Agent.
1
Such
signature by the Warrant Agent
upon any Warrant Certificate executed by the Company shall be conclusive
evidence that the Warrant Certificate so countersigned has been duly issued
hereunder.
In
case any officer of the Company
who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates either manually or by
facsimile signature shall cease to be such officer before the Warrant
Certificates so signed shall have been countersigned and delivered by the
Warrant Agent, such Warrant Certificates may be countersigned and delivered
notwithstanding that the person who signed
Warrant
Certificates ceased to be
such officer of the Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf
of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such
Warrant Certificate, shall be the proper officers of the Company, although
at
the date of the execution of this Agreement any such person was not such
officer.
The
term “holder” or “holder of a
Warrant Certificate” as used herein shall mean any person in whose name at the
time any Warrant Certificate shall be registered upon the books to be maintained
by the Warrant Agent for that purpose [If Other Securities and Warrants are
not
immediately detachable — or upon the registration of the Other Securities prior
to the Detachable Date. Prior to the Detachable Date, the Company will, or
will
cause the registrar of the Other Securities to, make available at all times
to
the Warrant Agent such information as to holders of the Other Securities as
may
be necessary to keep the Warrant Agent’s records up to date].
1.3
ISSUANCE OF WARRANT
CERTIFICATES. Warrant Certificates evidencing the right to purchase Warrant
Securities may be executed by the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent
upon the execution of this Warrant Agreement or from time to time thereafter.
The Warrant Agent shall, upon receipt of Warrant Certificates duly executed
on
behalf of the Company, countersign such Warrant Certificates and shall deliver
such Warrant Certificates to or upon the order of the Company.
ARTICLE

WARRANT
PRICE, DURATION AND EXERCISE
OF WARRANTS
2.1
WARRANT PRICE. During the period
specified in Section 2.2, each Warrant shall, subject to the terms of this
Warrant Agreement and the applicable Warrant Certificate, entitle the holder
thereof to purchase the number of Warrant Securities specified in the applicable
Warrant Certificate at an exercise price of
$
per Warrant Security, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain
events, as hereinafter provided. Such purchase price per Warrant Security is
referred to in this Agreement as the “WARRANT PRICE.”
2.2
DURATION OF WARRANTS. Each
Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time, as specified herein,
on or after [the date thereof]
[ ]
and at or before
[ ]
p.m., [City] time, on
or such later date as the Company may designate by notice to the Warrant Agent
and the holders of Warrant Certificates mailed to their addresses as set forth
in the record books of the Warrant Agent (the “EXPIRATION DATE”). Each Warrant
not exercised at or before
[ ]
p.m., [City] time, on the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights
of
the holder of the Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrant under this
Agreement shall cease.
2.3
EXERCISE OF WARRANTS.
(a)
During the period specified in
Section 2.2, the Warrants may be exercised to purchase a whole number of
Warrant Securities in registered form by providing certain information as set
forth on the reverse side of the Warrant Certificate and by paying in full,
in
lawful money of the United States of America, [in cash or by certified check
or
official bank check in New York Clearing House funds] [by bank wire transfer
in
immediately available funds] the Warrant Price for each Warrant Security with
respect to which a Warrant is being exercised to the Warrant Agent at its
corporate trust office, provided that such exercise is subject to receipt within
five business days of such payment by the Warrant Agent of the Warrant
Certificate with the form of election to purchase Warrant Securities set forth
on the reverse side of the Warrant Certificate properly completed and duly
executed. The date on which payment in full of the Warrant Price is received
by
the Warrant Agent shall, subject to receipt of the Warrant Certificate as
aforesaid, be deemed to
2
be
the date on which the Warrant is
exercised; provided, however, that if, at the date of receipt of such Warrant
Certificates and payment in full of the Warrant Price, the transfer books for
the Warrant Securities purchasable upon the exercise of such Warrants shall
be
closed, no such receipt of such Warrant Certificates and no such payment of
such
Warrant Price shall be effective to constitute the person so designated to
be
named as the holder of record of such Warrant Securities on such date, but
shall
be effective to constitute such person as the holder of record of such Warrant
Securities for all purposes at the opening of business on the next succeeding
day on which the transfer books for the Warrant Securities purchasable upon
the
exercise of such Warrants shall be opened, and the certificates for the Warrant
Securities in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised shall be
issuable as of the date on such next succeeding day on which the transfer books
shall next be opened, and until such date the Company shall be under no duty
to
deliver any certificate for such Warrant Securities. The Warrant Agent shall
deposit all funds received by it in payment of the Warrant Price in an account
of the Company maintained with it and shall advise the Company by telephone
at
the end of each day on which a payment for the exercise of Warrants is received
of the amount so deposited to its account. The Warrant Agent shall promptly
confirm such telephone advice to the Company in writing.
(b)
The Warrant Agent shall, from
time to time, as promptly as practicable, advise the Company of (i) the
number of Warrant Securities with respect to which Warrants were exercised,
(ii) the instructions of each holder of the Warrant Certificates evidencing
such Warrants with respect to delivery of the Warrant Securities to which such
holder is entitled upon such exercise, (iii) delivery of Warrant
Certificates evidencing the balance, if any, of the Warrants for the remaining
Warrant Securities after such exercise, and (iv) such other information as
the Company shall reasonably require.
(c)
As soon as practicable after the
exercise of any Warrant, the Company shall issue to or upon the order of the
holder of the Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrant the Warrant Securities
to which such holder is entitled, in fully registered form, registered in such
name or names as may be directed by such holder. If fewer than all of the
Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificate are exercised, the Company shall
execute, and an authorized officer of the Warrant Agent shall manually
countersign and deliver, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing Warrants for
the
number of Warrant Securities remaining unexercised.
(d)
The Company shall not be
required to pay any stamp or other tax or other governmental charge required
to
be paid in connection with any transfer involved in the issue of the Warrant
Securities, and in the event that any such transfer is involved, the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver any Warrant Security until such tax
or
other charge shall have been paid or it has been established to the Company’s
satisfaction that no such tax or other charge is due.
(e)
Prior to the issuance of any
Warrants there shall have been reserved, and the Company shall at all times
through the Expiration Date keep reserved, out of its authorized but unissued
Warrant Securities, a number of shares sufficient to provide for the exercise
of
the Warrants.
ARTICLE

OTHER
PROVISIONS RELATING TO RIGHTS
OF
HOLDERS OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES
3.1
NO RIGHTS AS WARRANT
SECURITYHOLDER CONFERRED BY WARRANTS OR WARRANT CERTIFICATES. No Warrant
Certificate or Warrant evidenced thereby shall entitle the holder thereof to
any
of the rights of a holder of Warrant Securities, including, without limitation,
the right to receive the payment of dividends or distributions, if any, on
the
Warrant Securities or to exercise any voting rights, except to the extent
expressly set forth in this Agreement or the applicable Warrant Certificate.
3.2
LOST, STOLEN, MUTILATED OR
DESTROYED WARRANT CERTIFICATES. Upon receipt by the Warrant Agent of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it and the Company of the ownership of and the loss,
theft,
3
destruction
or mutilation of any
Warrant Certificate and/or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant
Agent and the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender of the
mutilated Warrant Certificate to the Warrant Agent for cancellation, then,
in
the absence of notice to the Company or the Warrant Agent that such Warrant
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall
execute, and an authorized officer of the Warrant Agent shall manually
countersign and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of the lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate of the
same tenor and evidencing Warrants for a like number of Warrant Securities.
Upon
the issuance of any new Warrant Certificate under this Section 3.2, the
Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Warrant Agent) in connection
therewith. Every substitute Warrant Certificate executed and delivered pursuant
to this Section 3.2 in lieu of any lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant
Certificate shall represent an additional contractual obligation of the Company,
whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificate shall be at
any
time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits of this
Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Warrant
Certificates duly executed and delivered hereunder. The provisions of this
Section 3.2 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all
other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement of mutilated, lost,
stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificates.
3.3
HOLDER OF WARRANT CERTIFICATE
MAY ENFORCE RIGHTS. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement,
any
holder of a Warrant Certificate, without the consent of the Warrant Agent,
the
holder of any Warrant Securities or the holder of any other Warrant Certificate,
may, in such holder’s own behalf and for such holder’s own benefit, enforce, and
may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company
suitable to enforce, or otherwise in respect of, such holder’s right to exercise
the Warrants evidenced by such holder’s Warrant Certificate in the manner
provided in such holder’s Warrant Certificate and in this Agreement.
3.4
ADJUSTMENTS.
(a)
In case the Company shall at any
time subdivide its outstanding shares of [title of Depositary Shares purchasable
through exercise of Warrants] into a greater number of shares, the Warrant
Price
in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced
and the number of Warrant Securities purchasable under the Warrants shall be
proportionately increased. Conversely, in case the outstanding shares of [title
of Depositary Shares purchasable through exercise of Warrants] of the Company
shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and
the
number of Warrant Securities purchasable under the Warrants shall be
proportionately decreased.
(b)
If at any time or from time to
time the holders of [title of Preferred Stock underlying the Depositary Shares
purchasable through exercise of Warrants] (or any shares of stock or other
securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants) shall
have
received or become entitled to receive, without payment therefore,
(i)
[title of Preferred Stock
underlying Depositary Shares purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or any
shares of stock or other securities which are at any time directly or indirectly
convertible into or exchangeable for [title of Preferred Stock underlying
Depositary Shares purchasable through exercise of Warrants], or any rights
or
options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing
by
way of dividend or other distribution;
(ii)
any cash paid or payable
otherwise than in accordance with the terms of [title of Preferred Stock
underlying Depositary Shares purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or
otherwise than as a cash dividend paid or payable out of the Company’s current
or retained earnings;
(iii)
any evidence of the Company’s
indebtedness or rights to subscribe for or purchase the Company’s indebtedness;
or
4
(iv)
[title of Preferred Stock
underlying Depositary Shares purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or
additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of
spinoff, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate
rearrangement (other than shares of [title of Depositary Shares purchasable
through exercise of Warrants] issued as a stock split or adjustments in respect
of which shall be covered by the terms of Section 3.4(a) above),
then
and in each such case, the
holder of each Warrant shall, upon the exercise of the Warrant, be entitled
to
receive, in addition to the number of Warrant Securities receivable thereupon,
and without payment of any additional consideration therefore, the amount of
stock and other securities and property (including cash and indebtedness (or
rights to subscribe for or purchase indebtedness) which such holder would hold
on the date of such exercise had he been the holder of record of such Warrant
Securities as of the date on which holders of [title of Preferred Stock
underlying Depositary Shares purchasable through exercise of Warrants] received
or became entitled to receive such shares or all other additional stock and
other securities and property.
(c)
In case of (i) any
reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the [title of Depositary
Shares purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or [title of Preferred Stock
underlying Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants]
of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock
dividend provided for in Section 3.4(a) or Section 3.4(b) above),
(ii) share exchange, merger or similar transaction of the Company with or
into another person or entity (other than a share exchange, merger or similar
transaction in which the Company is the acquiring or surviving corporation
and
which does not result in any change in the [title of Depositary Shares
purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or [title of Preferred Stock
underlying Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants]
other than the issuance of additional shares of [title of Depositary Shares
purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or [title of Preferred Stock
underlying Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants])
or (iii) the sale, exchange, lease, transfer or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company as an entirety
(in
any such case, a “REORGANIZATION EVENT”), then, as a condition of such
Reorganization Event, lawful provisions shall be made, and duly executed
documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be
delivered to the holders of the Warrants, so that the holders of the Warrants
shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of the Warrants to
purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of the
Warrants, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable in connection with such Reorganization Event by a holder
of
the same number of shares of [title of Depositary Shares purchasable through
the
exercise of the Warrants] as were purchasable by the holders of the Warrants
immediately prior to such Reorganization Event. In any such case appropriate
provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the holders
of the Warrants so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable
with respect to any shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable
upon exercise the Warrants, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the
Warrant Price payable hereunder provided the aggregate purchase price shall
remain the same. In the case of any transaction described in clauses
(ii) and (iii) above, the Company shall thereupon be relieved of any
further obligation hereunder or under the Warrants, and the Company as the
predecessor corporation may thereupon or at any time thereafter be dissolved,
wound up or liquidated. Such successor or assuming entity thereupon may cause
to
be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company,
any or all of the Warrants issuable hereunder which heretofore shall not have
been signed by the Company, and may execute and deliver securities in its own
name, in fulfillment of its obligations to deliver Warrant Securities upon
exercise of the Warrants. All the Warrants so issued shall in all respects
have
the same legal rank and benefit under this Agreement as the Warrants theretofore
or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as though
all of such Warrants had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. In
any
case of any such Reorganization Event, such changes in phraseology and form
(but
not in substance) may be made in the Warrants thereafter to be issued as may
be
appropriate.
5
The
Warrant Agent may receive a
written opinion of legal counsel as conclusive evidence that any such
Reorganization Event complies with the provisions of this Section 3.4.
(d)
The Company may, at its option,
at any time until the Expiration Date, reduce the then current Warrant Price
to
any amount deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company for
any
period not exceeding twenty consecutive days (as evidenced in a resolution
adopted by such Board of Directors), but only upon giving the notices required
by Section 3.5 at least ten days prior to taking such action.
(e)
Except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, no adjustment in the Warrant Price shall be made by reason
of the issuance of any securities of the Company or for any other reason
whatsoever.
(f)
No fractional Warrant Securities
shall be issued upon the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall
be
exercised at one time by the same holder, the number of full Warrant Securities
which shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be computed on the basis of
the
aggregate number of Warrant Securities purchased pursuant to the Warrants so
exercised. Instead of any fractional Warrant Security which would otherwise
be
issuable upon exercise of any Warrant, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment
in respect of such fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the
last
sales price (or bid price if there were no sales) per Warrant Security, in
either case as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape on the
business day which next precedes the day of exercise or, if the Warrant
Securities are not then listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock
Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the Warrant
Securities are listed or admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted
to
trading on any national securities exchange, on the National Market System
of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotations System
(“NASDAQ”), or if the Warrant Securities are not then listed or admitted to
trading on any national securities exchange or quoted on the National Market
System of NASDAQ, the average of the closing high bid and low asked prices
in
the over-the-counter market, as reported by NASDAQ, or such other system then
in
use, or if on any such date the Warrant Securities are not quoted by any such
organization, an amount equal to the same fraction of the average of the closing
bid and asked prices as furnished by any New York Stock Exchange firm selected
from time to time by the Company for that purpose at the close of business
on
the business day which next precedes the day of exercise.
(g)
Whenever the Warrant Price then
in effect is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall mail to each holder
of the Warrants at such holder’s address as it shall appear on the books of the
Company a statement setting forth the adjusted Warrant Price then and thereafter
effective under the provisions hereof, together with the facts, in reasonable
detail, upon which such adjustment is based.
3.5
NOTICE TO WARRANTHOLDERS. In
case the Company shall (a) effect any dividend or distribution described in
Section 3.4(b), (b) effect any Reorganization Event, (c) make any
distribution on or in respect of the [title of Depositary Shares purchasable
through exercise of Warrants] or [title of Preferred Stock underlying Depositary
Shares purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants] in connection with
the
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, or (d) reduce the
then current Warrant Price pursuant to Section 3.4(d), then the Company
shall mail to each holder of Warrants at such holder’s address as it shall
appear on the books of the Warrant Agent, at least ten days prior to the
applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the record date
for such dividend or distribution, or, if a record is not to be taken, the
date
as of which the holders of record of [title of Preferred Stock underlying
Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of Warrants] that will be
entitled to such dividend or distribution are to be determined, (y) the
date on which such Reorganization Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding
up
is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that
holders of [title of Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of
the
Warrants] of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of [title of
Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants] for
securities or other property deliverable upon such Reorganization Event,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or (z) the first date on which the
then current Warrant Price shall be reduced pursuant to Section 3.4(d). No
failure to mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof
shall affect any such transaction or any adjustment in the Warrant Price
required by Section 3.4.
6
3.6
[IF THE WARRANTS ARE SUBJECT TO
ACCELERATION BY THE COMPANY, INSERT — ACCELERATION OF WARRANTS BY THE COMPANY.
(a)
At any time on or after
,
the Company shall have the right to accelerate any or all Warrants at any time
by causing them to expire at the close of business on the day next preceding
a
specified date (the “ACCELERATION DATE”), if the Market Price (as hereinafter
defined) of the [title of Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise
of
the Warrants] equals or exceeds
percent ( %) of the then
effective Warrant Price on any twenty Trading Days (as hereinafter defined)
within a period of thirty consecutive Trading Days ending no more than five
Trading Days prior to the date on which the Company gives notice to the Warrant
Agent of its election to accelerate the Warrants.
(b)
“Market
Price” for each Trading
Day shall be, if the [title of Depositary Shares purchasable through the
exercise of the Warrants] is listed or admitted for trading on the New York
Stock Exchange, the last reported sale price, regular way (or, if no such price
is reported, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices, regular
way) of [title of Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of the
Warrants], in either case as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite
Tape or, if the [title of Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise
of
the Warrants] is not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock
Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the [title
of
Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants] is listed
or
admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted to trading on any national
securities exchange, on the National Market System of NASDAQ or, if not listed
or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quoted on the
National Market System of NASDAQ, the average of the closing high bid and low
asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported by NASDAQ, or such
other system then in use, or if on any such date the shares of [title of
Depositary Shares purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants] are not
quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices
as furnished by any New York Stock Exchange firm selected from time to time
by
the Company for that purpose. “Trading Day” shall be each Monday through Friday,
other than any day on which securities are not traded in the system or on the
exchange that is the principal market for the [title of Depositary Shares
purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants], as determined by the Board
of
Directors of the Company.
(c)
In the event of an acceleration
of less than all of the Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall select the Warrants
to
be accelerated by lot, pro rata or in such other manner as it deems, in its
discretion, to be fair and appropriate.
(d)
Notice of an acceleration
specifying the Acceleration Date shall be sent by mail first class, postage
prepaid, to each registered holder of a Warrant Certificate representing a
Warrant accelerated at such holder’s address appearing on the books of the

CERTIFICATES
4.1
EXCHANGE AND TRANSFER OF WARRANT
CERTIFICATES. [If Other Securities with Warrants which are immediately
detachable — Upon] [If Other Securities with Warrants which are not immediately
detachable — Prior to the Detachable Date, a Warrant Certificate may be
exchanged or transferred only together with the Other Security to which the
Warrant Certificate was initially attached, and only for the purpose of
effecting or in conjunction with an exchange or transfer of such Other Security.
Prior to any Detachable Date, each transfer of the Other Security shall operate
also to transfer the related Warrant Certificates. After the Detachable Date,
upon] surrender at the corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent, Warrant
Certificates evidencing Warrants may be exchanged for Warrant Certificates
in
other denominations evidencing such Warrants or the transfer thereof may be
registered in whole or in part; provided that such other Warrant Certificates
evidence Warrants for the same aggregate number of Warrant Securities as the
Warrant Certificates so surrendered. The Warrant Agent shall keep, at its
corporate trust office, books in which, subject to such reasonable regulations
as it may prescribe, it shall register Warrant Certificates and exchanges and
transfers of outstanding Warrant Certificates, upon surrender of the Warrant
Certificates to the Warrant Agent at its corporate trust office for exchange
or
registration of transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate
instruments of registration of transfer and written instructions for transfer,
all in form satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant Agent. No service charge
shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Warrant
Certificates, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any stamp or other tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any such exchange or registration of transfer. Whenever any
Warrant Certificates are so surrendered for exchange or registration of
transfer, an authorized officer of the Warrant Agent shall manually countersign
and deliver to the person or persons entitled thereto a Warrant Certificate
or
Warrant Certificates duly authorized and executed by the Company, as so
requested. The Warrant Agent shall not be required to effect any exchange or
registration of transfer which will result in the issuance of a Warrant
Certificate evidencing a Warrant for a fraction of a Warrant Security or a
number of Warrants for a whole number of Warrant Securities and a fraction
of a
Warrant Security. All Warrant Certificates issued upon any exchange or
registration of transfer of Warrant Certificates shall be the valid obligations
of the Company, evidencing the same obligations and entitled to the same
benefits under this Agreement as the Warrant Certificate surrendered for such
exchange or registration of transfer.
4.2
TREATMENT OF HOLDERS OF WARRANT
CERTIFICATES. [If Other Securities and Warrants are not immediately detachable
—
Prior to the Detachable Date, the Company, the Warrant Agent and all other
persons may treat the owner of the Other Security as the owner of the Warrant
Certificates initially attached thereto for any purpose and as the person
entitled to exercise the rights represented by the Warrants evidenced by such
Warrant Certificates, any notice to the contrary notwithstanding. After the
Detachable Date and prior to due presentment of a Warrant Certificate for
registration of transfer, the] [T]he Company, the Warrant Agent and all other
persons may treat the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate as the absolute
owner thereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights
represented by the Warrants evidenced thereby, any notice to the contrary
notwithstanding.
4.3
CANCELLATION OF WARRANT
CERTIFICATES. Any Warrant Certificate surrendered for exchange, registration
of
transfer or exercise of the Warrants evidenced thereby shall, if surrendered
to
the Company, be delivered to the Warrant Agent and all Warrant Certificates
surrendered or so delivered to the Warrant Agent shall be promptly canceled
by
the Warrant Agent and shall not be reissued and, except as expressly permitted
by this Agreement, no Warrant Certificate shall be issued hereunder in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof. The Warrant Agent shall deliver to the Company
from
time to time or otherwise dispose of canceled Warrant Certificates in a manner
satisfactory to the Company.

performance of its covenants or agreements contained herein or in the Warrant
Certificates or in the case of the receipt of any written demand from a holder
of a Warrant Certificate with respect to such default, including, without

Warrant Agent hereunder may be removed at any time by the filing with it of
an
instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of the Company and specifying
such
removal and the intended date when it shall become effective. Such resignation
or removal shall take effect upon the appointment by the Company, as hereinafter
provided, of a successor Warrant Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company
authorized under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization to exercise
corporate trust powers) and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor
Warrant Agent. The obligation of the Company under Section 5.2(a) shall

successor Warrant Agent of such appointment, the Warrant Agent shall cease
to be
Warrant Agent hereunder.

Any successor Warrant Agent
appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor
and to the Company an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and
thereupon such successor Warrant Agent, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall
10
become
vested with all the
