COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase __________ Shares of Common Stock of
Medialink Worldwide Incorporated
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 fifth anniversary of the Initial Exercise
Date (the "Termination Date") but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase
from Medialink Worldwide Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
up to ______ shares (the "Warrant Shares") of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per
share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The purchase price of one share of
Common Stock (the "Exercise Price") under this Warrant shall be $3.99, subject
to adjustment hereunder.
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 November 8, 2004, 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 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); 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.
-1-
b) Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of each share of Common Stock
under this Warrant shall be $3.99, subject to adjustment hereunder.
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 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 average of the VWAPs on the 20 Trading Days 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.
d) Exercise Limitations.
i. Holder's Exercise 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 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)(i), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act, it being acknowledged by Holder 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)(i) 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 Holder, 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)(i), 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-Q or Form 10-K, 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.
-2-
e) Mechanics of Exercise.
i. Authorization of Warrant 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 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 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). 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.
ii. Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise. Certificates for shares
purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Holder 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 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 deliver 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. Buy-In Compensation. In addition to any other rights available to
the Holder, if the Company fails to deliver 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 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.
-3-
vi. Fractional Shares. 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 number of shares of
Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event
and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding after such event. 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.
-4-
b) Subsequent Equity Sales. At any time after Shareholder Approval has
been obtained, 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 to equal the sum of (i) such Base Share Price
and (ii) 15% of the difference between the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such adjustment and such Base Share Price. Such adjustment shall be
made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The
Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the business 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.
c) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant
is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders)
evidences of its indebtedness or assets 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 determined by
multiplying such Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date
fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by
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 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) 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 outstanding as
of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock
(excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding.
-5-
e) 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), or the lowest possible
adjustment price in the case of an MFN Transaction (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement).
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Xxxxxx. 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 addresses 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 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 the date
of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice.
-6-
f) 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 conversion of this
Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that
would have been issuable upon such exercise absent 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 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) cash equal to the value of this Warrant as determined in accordance
with the Black-Scholes option pricing formula (the "Alternate Consideration").
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 paragraph (f) and
insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly
adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
-7-
g) Exempt Issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments,
Alternate Consideration nor notices shall be made, paid or issued under this
Section 3 in respect of (i) an Exempt Issuance or (ii) issuances of up to, in
the aggregate, 75,000 shares of Common Stock in any 12-month period.
h) 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.
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(e) 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
-8-
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 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) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) Authorized Shares.
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.
-9-
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.
e) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party
agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement
and defense of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents
(whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors,
officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and
federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the "New
York Courts"). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute
hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby
or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the
Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert
in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject
to the jurisdiction of any such court, or such New York Courts are improper or
inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such
suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the
address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such
service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right
to serve process in any manner permitted by law. The parties hereby waive all
rights to a trial by jury. If either party shall commence an action or
proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Warrant, then the prevailing party
in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its
attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,
preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
f) 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.
-10-
g) 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 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 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.
h) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to
be provided by the Holders hereunder, including, without limitation, any Notice
of Exercise, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by facsimile, sent by
