COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase __________ Shares of Common Stock of
SECURED SERVICES, INC.
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the "WARRANT") certifies
that, for value received, _____________ (the "HOLDER"), is entitled, upon the
terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter
set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the "INITIAL EXERCISE DATE")
and on or prior to the close of business on the four year anniversary of the
Initial Exercise Date (the "TERMINATION DATE") but not thereafter, to subscribe
for and purchase from Secured Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"COMPANY"), up to ______ shares (the "WARRANT SHARES") of Common Stock, par
value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the "COMMON STOCK"). The purchase price
of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise
Price, as defined in Section 2(b).
SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities
Purchase Agreement (the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), dated June 13, 2005, among the
Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.
SECTION 2. EXERCISE.
a) EXERCISE OF WARRANT. Exercise of the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any
time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before
the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed
facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto (or such
other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in
writing to the registered Holder at the address of such Holder
appearing on the books of the Company);
1
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, within 5 Trading Days of the date said Notice of
Exercise is delivered to the Company, the Holder shall have surrendered
this Warrant to the Company and the Company shall have received payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire
transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank.
b) EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price of the Common Stock
under this Warrant shall be $1.2791, subject to adjustment hereunder
(the "EXERCISE PRICE").
c) CASHLESS EXERCISE. If at any time after one year from the
date of issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration
Statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the
resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also
be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which
the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of
Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)]
by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the
date of such election;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant by means of a cash exercise rather than a
cashless exercise.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless the
Company provides the Holder written notice, setting forth the
forthcoming Termination Date, at least 10 Trading Days prior to the
Termination Date, then, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be
automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section
2(c).
d) EXERCISE LIMITATIONS; HOLDER'S RESTRICTIONS. The Holder
shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant,
pursuant to Section 2(c) or otherwise, to the extent that after giving
effect to such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together with the
Holder's affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of
Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect
to such issuance. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its
affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination
of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares
of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the
remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by
the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of
the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the
Company (including, without limitation, any other shares of Debentures
or Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise
analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding
sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(d), beneficial ownership shall
be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, it
being acknowledged
2
by Xxxxxx that the Company is not representing to Holder that such
calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in
accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in
this Section 2(d) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is
exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder) and
of which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole
discretion of such Xxxxxx, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise
shall be deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this
Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such
Holder) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each
case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company
shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such
determination. For purposes of this Section 2(d), in determining the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on
the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x)
the Company's most recent Form 10-QSB or Form 10-KSB, as the case may
be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any
other notice by the Company or the Company's Transfer Agent setting
forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the
written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two
Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of
shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving
effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company,
including this Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date
as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was
reported. The provisions of this Section 2(d) may be waived by the
Holder, at the election of the Holder, upon not less than 61 days'
prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of this Section 2(d)
shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as
determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such notice of
waiver).
e) MECHANICS OF EXERCISE.
i. AUTHORIZATION OF WARRANT 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).
ii. DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES UPON EXERCISE.
Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be
transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to
the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder's
prime broker with the Depository Trust Company
through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission
("DWAC") system if the Company is a participant in
such system, and otherwise by physical delivery to
the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of
Exercise within 3 Trading Days from the delivery to
the Company of the Notice of Exercise Form, surrender
of this Warrant and payment of the aggregate Exercise
Price as set forth above ("WARRANT SHARE DELIVERY
DATE"). This Warrant shall be
3
deemed to have been exercised on the date the
Exercise Price is received by the Company. The
Warrant Shares 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 Exercise Price and all taxes required
to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section
2(e)(vii) prior to the issuance of such shares, have
been paid.
iii. DELIVERY OF NEW WARRANTS UPON EXERCISE.
If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part,
the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the
certificate or certificates representing Warrant
Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing
the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased
Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new
Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with
this Warrant.
iv. RESCISSION RIGHTS. If the Company fails
to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder
a certificate or certificates representing the
Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 2(e)(iv) by
the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will
have the right to rescind such exercise.
v. COMPENSATION FOR BUY-IN ON FAILURE TO
TIMELY DELIVER CERTIFICATES UPON EXERCISE. In
addition to any other rights available to the Holder,
if the Company fails to cause its transfer agent to
transmit to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an
exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery
Date, and if after such date the Holder is required
by its broker to purchase (in an open market
transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to
deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of
the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such exercise (a "BUY-IN"), then the
Company shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the
amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the
shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the
amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of
Warrant Shares that the Company was required to
deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise
at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order
giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed,
and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate
the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of
Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not
honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares
of Common Stock that would have been issued had the
Company timely complied with its exercise and
delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the
Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase
price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an
attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an
aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase
obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the
immediately preceding sentence the Company shall
4
be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder
shall provide the Company written notice indicating
the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the
Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and
other evidence reasonably requested by the Company.
Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue
any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law
or in equity including, without limitation, a decree
of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver
certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon
exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the
terms hereof.
vi. 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.
vii. 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.
viii. CLOSING OF BOOKS. The Company will not
close its stockholder books or records in any manner
which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
SECTION 3. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.
a) STOCK DIVIDENDS AND SPLITS. If the Company, at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or
otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common
Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in
shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not
include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to
this Warrant), (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
larger number of shares, (C) combines (including by way of reverse
stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number
of shares, or (D) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common
Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the
Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator
shall be the
5
number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such event and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made
pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after
the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective
immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
combination or re-classification.
b) SUBSEQUENT EQUITY SALES. If the Company or any Subsidiary
thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding,
shall offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or offer, sell or grant
any right to reprice its securities, or otherwise dispose of or issue
(or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other
disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any
Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at an effective price per
share less than the then Exercise Price (such lower price, the "BASE
SHARE PRICE" and such issuances collectively, a "DILUTIVE ISSUANCE"),
as adjusted hereunder (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of
purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion,
exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options
or rights per share which is issued in connection with such issuance,
be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per
share which is less than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be
deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price), then, the
Exercise Price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal the Base
Share Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall
be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder,
after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be
equal to the aggregate Exercise Price prior to such adjustment. Such
adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments
shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 3(b) in respect of an
Exempt Issuance. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no
later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this section, indicating therein
the applicable issuance price, or of applicable reset price, exchange
price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice the
"DILUTIVE ISSUANCE NOTICE"). For purposes of clarification, whether or
not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this
Section 3(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, after the
date of such Dilutive Issuance the Holder is entitled to receive a
number of Warrant Shares based upon the Base Share Price regardless of
whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the
Notice of Exercise.
c) PRO RATA DISTRIBUTIONS. If the Company, at any time prior
to the Termination Date, shall distribute to all holders of Common
Stock (and not to Holders of the Warrants) evidences of its
indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or
warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the
Common Stock (which shall be subject to Section 3(b)), then in each
such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by
6
a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of
the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be
such VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value
at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of
indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the
Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In
either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided
to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so
distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of
Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such
distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the
record date mentioned above.
d) FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION. If, at any time while this Warrant
is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of
the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company effects any
sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of
related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether
by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which
holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their
shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company
effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory
share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively
converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in
any such case, a "FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION"), then, upon any subsequent
exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive,
for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise
immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at
the option of the Holder, (a) 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 any additional
consideration (the "ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION") 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 or (b) if the Company is acquired in an all cash transaction,
cash equal to the value of this Warrant as determined in accordance
with the Black-Scholes option pricing formula. For purposes of any such
exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be
appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based
on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one
share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company
shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in
a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different
components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock
are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be
received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given
the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any
exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. To the
extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor
to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction
shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing
provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to exercise such warrant
into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to
which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms
requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the
provisions of this Section 3(d) and insuring that this Warrant (or any
such replacement
7
security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction
analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
e) CALCULATIONS. All calculations under this Section 3 shall
be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the
case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of
Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date
shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
f) VOLUNTARY ADJUSTMENT BY COMPANY. The Company may at any
time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise
Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by
the Board of Directors of the Company.
g) NOTICE TO HOLDERS.
i. ADJUSTMENT TO EXERCISE PRICE. Whenever
the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to this
Section 3, the Company shall promptly mail to each
Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price
after such adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. If
the Company issues a variable rate security, despite
the prohibition thereon in the Purchase Agreement,
the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest
possible conversion or exercise price at which such
securities may be converted or exercised in the case
of a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement).
ii. NOTICE TO ALLOW EXERCISE BY HOLDER. If
(A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any
other distribution) on the Common Stock; (B) the
Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash
dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C)
the Company shall authorize the granting to all
holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to
subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock
of any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of
any stockholders of the Company shall be required in
connection with any reclassification of the Common
Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the
Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, of
any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common
Stock is converted into other securities, cash or
property; (E) the Company shall authorize the
voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding up of the affairs of the Company; then, in
each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to
the Holder at its last address as it shall appear
upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20
calendar days prior to the applicable record or
effective date hereinafter specified, a notice
stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not
to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the
Common Stock of record to be entitled to such
dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or
warrants
8
are to be determined or (y) the date on which such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale,
transfer or share exchange is expected to become
effective or close, and the date as of which it is
expected that holders of the Common Stock of record
shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the
Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange; PROVIDED, that the failure to mail such
notice or any defect therein or in the mailing
thereof shall not affect the validity of the
corporate action required to be specified in such
notice. The Holder is entitled to exercise this
Warrant during the 20-day period commencing on the
date of such notice to the effective date of the
event triggering such notice.
SECTION 4. TRANSFER OF WARRANT.
a) TRANSFERABILITY. Subject to compliance with any applicable
securities laws and the conditions set forth in Sections 5(a) and 4(d)
hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement,
this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in
part, 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. 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.
b) NEW WARRANTS. This Warrant may be divided or combined with
other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the
Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and
denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the
Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section
4(a), 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.
c) WARRANT REGISTER. The Company shall register this Warrant,
upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the
"WARRANT REGISTER"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time
to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this
Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise
hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes,
absent actual notice to the contrary.
d) TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. If, at the time of the surrender of
this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the
transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act and
9
under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may
require, as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder
or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the
Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form,
substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be made without
registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state
securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute
and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance
acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an
"accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3),
(a)(7), or (a)(8) promulgated under the Securities Act or a qualified
institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities
Act.
SECTION 5. MISCELLANEOUS.
a) TITLE TO WARRANT. Prior to the Termination Date and subject
to compliance with applicable laws and Section 4 of this Warrant, 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 together with
the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed. The transferee
shall sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Company.
b) 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. Upon the
surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise
Price (or by means of a cashless exercise), the Warrant Shares so
purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the
record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of
the date of such surrender or payment.
c) 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 certificate relating to the
Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity
or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the
Warrant, 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.
d) SATURDAYS, SUNDAYS, HOLIDAYS, ETC. If the last or appointed
day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right
required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal
holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised
on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
e) AUTHORIZED SHARES.
The Company covenants that during the period the
Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized
and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to
provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the
10
exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The
Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant
shall constitute full authority to its officers who are
charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to
execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this
Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as
may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be
issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading
Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by
the Holder, 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 as set forth in this Warrant against
impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant
Shares 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 Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this
Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable 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.
Before taking any action which would result in an
adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this
Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise 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.
f) JURISDICTION. All questions concerning the construction,
validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
g) RESTRICTIONS. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant
Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered,
will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal
securities laws.
h) NONWAIVER AND EXPENSES. No course of dealing or any delay
or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall
operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Xxxxxx's
rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights
hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully
and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which
results in any
11
material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such
amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses
including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including
those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any
amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its
rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
i) NOTICES. Any notice, request or other document required or
permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall

absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or
purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or
privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for

Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by
creditors of the Company.
k) REMEDIES. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise
all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be
entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The

for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of
this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for
specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby

provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and
the Holder.
n) SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall
be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining
provisions of this Warrant.
o) HEADINGS. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed
