COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
-----------------------------
No. 1 Void after August 18, 2004
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, America Online, Inc. (the
"Holder") is entitled to subscribe for and purchase the Formula Number of shares
------
(as such number of shares shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 3 hereof, thus
adjusting the per share Exercise Price) of the fully paid and nonassessable
Common Stock, $0.0000125 par value (the "Shares"), of eMachines, Inc., a
------
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at the aggregate exercise price of $3.625
-------
million (the "Exercise Price"), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and
--------------
conditions hereinafter set forth. The "Formula Number" of shares shall mean
$3.625 million divided by (i) in the case of an initial public offering of
Shares pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1, the greater of (A) the
product of 1.25 and the per Share offering price of the Shares in such offering
and (B) $7.981, or (ii) in any other case, $11.823.
1. Method of Exercise; Payment.
---------------------------
(a) Cash Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this
-------------
Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, by the surrender of
this Warrant (with the notice of exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly
---------
executed) at the principal office of the Company, and by the payment to the
Company, by certified, cashier's or other check acceptable to the Company or by
wire transfer to an account designated by the Company, of an amount equal to the
aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares being purchased.
(b) Net Issue Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant, the
------------------
Holder may elect to receive Shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the
portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal
office of the Company together with notice of such election, in which event the
Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Shares computed using the
following formula:
X = Y (A-B)
-------
A
Where X = the number of the Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y = the number of the Shares purchasable under this Warrant.
A = the fair market value of one Share on the date of
determination.
B = the per share Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of
such calculation).
(c) Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 1, the per
-----------------
share fair market value of the Shares shall mean:
(i) If the Company's Common Stock is publicly traded, the
per share fair market value of the Shares shall be the average of the closing
prices of the Common Stock as quoted on the Nasdaq National Market or the
principal exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, or if not so listed then
the fair market value shall be the average of the closing bid prices of the
Common Stock as published in The Wall Street Journal, in each case for the
-----------------------
fifteen trading days ending five trading days prior to the date of determination
of fair market value;
(ii) If the Company's Common Stock is not so publicly
traded, the per share fair market value of the Shares shall be such fair market
value as is determined in good faith by
-2-
the Board of Directors of the Company after taking into consideration factors it
deems appropriate, including, without limitation, recent sale and offer prices
of the capital stock of the Company in private transactions negotiated at arm's
length.
(d) Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of the rights
------------------
represented by this Warrant, certificates for the Shares so purchased shall be
delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time and, unless this Warrant has
been fully exercised or has expired, a new Warrant representing the shares with
respect to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised shall also be issued
to the Holder within such time.
2. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. All of the Shares issuable
---------------------------------------
upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance
and receipt of the Exercise Price therefor, be fully paid and nonassessable, and
free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. During
the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised,
the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved for issuance
sufficient shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant.
3. Adjustments. Subject to the provisions of Section 11 hereof, the
---------------------------
number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and
the Exercise Price therefor shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:
(a) Reclassification. In the case of any reclassification or
----------------
change of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (other
than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par
value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case
of any merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a
merger with another corporation in which the Company is the acquiring and the
surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or
change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in
case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the
Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall
duly execute and deliver to the holder of this Warrant a new Warrant (in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the holder of this Warrant), or the
Company shall make appropriate provision without the issuance of a new Warrant,
so that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right to receive, at a total
purchase price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised
portion of this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock theretofore
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, (i) the kind and amount of shares of
stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such
reclassification, change, merger or sale by a holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock then purchasable under this Warrant, or (ii) in the case of such a
merger or sale in which the consideration paid consists all or in part of assets
other than securities of the successor or purchasing corporation, at the option
of the Holder of this Warrant, the securities of the successor or purchasing
corporation having a value at the time of the transaction equivalent to the fair
market value of the Common Stock at the time of the transaction. The provisions
of this subparagraph (a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
changes, mergers and transfers.
-3-
(b) Stock Splits, Dividends and Combinations. In the event that the
----------------------------------------
Company shall at any time subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock or
shall issue a stock dividend on its outstanding shares of Common Stock the
number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to
such subdivision or to the issuance of such stock dividend shall be
proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately
decreased, and in the event that the Company shall at any time combine the
outstanding shares of Common Stock the number of Shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately
decreased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased, effective
at the close of business on the date of such subdivision, stock dividend or
combination, as the case may be.
4. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of Shares purchasable
---------------------
hereunder or the Exercise Price thereof shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 3
hereof, the Company shall provide notice to the Holder setting forth, in
reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the
adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the number
and class of shares which may be purchased thereafter and the Exercise Price
therefor after giving effect to such adjustment.
5. Fractional Shares. This Warrant may not be exercised for fractional
-----------------
shares. In lieu of fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment
therefor based upon the Exercise Price then in effect and the fair market value
of the shares then obtaining (calculated in accordance with Section 1(c) hereof
as if the shares were the Shares referred to in such Section).
6. Representations of the Company. The Company represents that all
------------------------------
corporate actions on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and
shareholders necessary for the sale and issuance of the Shares pursuant hereto
and the performance of the Company's obligations hereunder were taken prior to
and are effective as of the effective date of this Warrant.
7. Representations and Warranties by the Holder. The Holder represents
--------------------------------------------
and warrants to the Company as follows:
(a) This Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise thereof are
being acquired for its own account, for investment and not with a view to, or
for resale in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof
within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Upon
---
exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall, if so requested by the Company,
confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the securities
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are being acquired for investment and not
with a view toward distribution or resale.
(b) The Holder understands that the Warrant and the Shares have not
been registered under the Act by reason of their issuance in a transaction
exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act
pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and that they must be held by the Holder
indefinitely, and that the Holder must therefore bear the economic risk of such
investment indefinitely, unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered
under the Act or is exempted from such registration. The Holder further
understands that the Shares have not been qualified under the California
Securities Law of 1968 (the "California Law") by reason of their issuance in a
--------------
transaction exempt from the qualification requirements of the California Law
pursuant
-4-
to Section 25102(f) thereof, which exemption depends upon, among other things,
the bona fide nature of the Holder's investment intent expressed above.
(c) The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the purchase of this Warrant and the Shares purchasable pursuant to the terms of
this Warrant and of protecting its interests in connection therewith.
(d) The Holder is able to bear the economic risk of the purchase
of the Shares pursuant to the terms of this Warrant.
8. Restrictive Legend.
