beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the shares of Common Stock or 9.99% of
the shares of DSW Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such
exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares
of Common Stock or DSW Stock, as the case may be, beneficially owned by such
Person and its affiliates shall include the number of such shares of Common
Stock or DSW Stock, as applicable, issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with
respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall

the Company or DSW beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates

to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding
sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be
calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of

outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in the most recent of the
following: (1) the Company's most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Current Report on
Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as
the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company of which
the Holder is informed or (3) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer
Agent to the Holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of
outstanding
10
shares of DSW Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of

recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (2) a more
recent public announcement by DSW or (3) any other notice by the DSW or its
transfer agent to the Holder setting forth the number of shares of DSW Stock
outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the
Holder, the Company shall within one Business Day confirm orally and in writing
to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding or similarly
use its reasonable best efforts to cause DSW to confirm the number of shares of
DSW Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock or DSW Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the
conversion or exercise of securities of the Company or DSW, as the case may be,,
including the Conversion Warrants, by the Holder and its affiliates since the
date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock or DSW Stock
was reported.] [For Cerberus Warrant only.]

issued or deemed to be issued by the Company or DSW, respectively, is less than
the greater of the Current Market Price and the Fair Market Value of such
security on the date of, and immediately prior to, the issue of such Additional
Shares of Common Stock or Additional Shares of DSW Stock, as the case may be.
Upon each adjustment pursuant to Section 3 of the Common Stock Purchase Price or
the DSW Stock Purchase Price as a result of the issuance of Additional Shares of
Common Stock by the Company or Additional Shares of DSW Stock by DSW,
respectively, for a consideration per share that is less than the greater of the
Current Market Price and the Fair Market Value of such security on the date of,
and immediately prior to, such issuance, this Warrant shall thereafter evidence
the right to receive, at the adjusted Purchase Price, that number of shares of
Common Stock or DSW Stock, as the case may be, (calculated to the nearest one
hundredth) obtained by dividing (i) the product of the aggregate number of such
shares covered by this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the
applicable Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment of the
Purchase Price by (ii) the applicable Purchase Price in effect immediately after
such adjustment of the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, Additional
Shares of Common Stock and adjustments in the case of Common Stock shall result
only in an adjustment to the Common Stock Exercise Amount and issuances of
Additional Shares of DSW Stock and adjustments in the case of DSW Stock shall
result only in an adjustment of the DSW Stock Exercise Amount. In addition, for
the avoidance of doubt, after the consummation of a Spin-Off and satisfaction of
the Company's obligations to make the distribution to the Holder required by
Section 3.7(b), no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 3.1 as a
result of an issuance of Additional Shares of DSW Stock.
3.2. Issue of Securities Deemed an Issue of Additional Shares.
11
(a) Options and Convertible Securities. In the event the Company or
DSW, at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date shall issue any
Options or Convertible Securities or shall fix a record date for the
determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such
Options or Convertible Securities (other than those excluded from the definition
of Additional Shares of Common Stock or the definition of Additional Shares of
DSW Stock), then the maximum number of shares (as set forth in the instrument
relating thereto without regard to any provisions contained therein for a
subsequent adjustment of such number) of, in the case of an issuance by or
fixing of a record date by the Company, Common Stock or, in the case of an
issuance or fixing of a record date by DSW, DSW Stock, issuable upon the
exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options
therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be
deemed to be, in the case of the Company, Additional Shares of Common Stock or,
in the case of an issuance or fixing of a record date by DSW, Additional Shares
of DSW Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date
shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date;
provided, that such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Additional Shares of
DSW Stock, as the case may be, shall not be deemed to have been issued unless
the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof) of such
shares would be less than the applicable Purchase Price in effect on the date of
and immediately prior to such issue, or such record date, as the case may be,
and provided, further, that in any such case in which Additional Shares of
Common Stock or Additional Shares of DSW Stock, as the case may be, are deemed
to be issued:
(i) no further adjustment in the applicable Purchase Price shall be
made upon the subsequent issue of Convertible Securities or shares of
Common Stock or, in the case of an issuance or fixing of a record date by
DSW, DSW Stock upon the exercise of such Options or conversion or exchange
of such Convertible Securities;
(ii) if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms
provide, with the passage of time, pursuant to any provisions designed to
protect against dilution, or otherwise, for any increase or decrease in the
consideration payable to the Company or, if issued by DSW, DSW, or increase
or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock or, in the case of an
issuance or fixing of a record date by DSW, DSW Stock issuable, upon the
exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, the applicable Purchase Price
computed upon the original issue thereof (or upon the occurrence of a
record date with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based
thereon, shall, upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be
recomputed to reflect such increase or decrease insofar as it affects such
Options or the rights of conversion or exchange under such Convertible
Securities;
(iii) upon the expiration of any such Options or any rights of
conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities which shall not
have been exercised, the applicable Purchase Price computed upon the
original issue thereof (or upon the occurrence of a record date with
respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon
such expiration, be recomputed as if such Options or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be, were never issued;
(iv) no readjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) above shall
have the effect
12
of increasing the applicable Purchase Price to an amount which exceeds the
lower of (A) the Purchase Price on the original date on which an adjustment
was made pursuant to this Section 3.2(a), or (B) the Purchase Price that
would have resulted from any issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock
or Additional Shares of DSW Stock between such original adjustment date and
the date on which a readjustment is made pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii)
above; and
(v) if such record date shall have been fixed and such Options or
Convertible Securities are not issued on the date fixed therefor, the
adjustment previously made in the Purchase Price which became effective on
such record date shall be cancelled as of the close of business on such
record date, and thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant
to this Section 3.2 as of the actual date of their issuance.
(b) Stock Dividends, Stock Distributions and Subdivisions. In the
event the Company or DSW, at any time or from time to time after the Effective
Date shall declare or pay any dividend or make any other distribution on, in the
case of the Company, the Common Stock payable in Common Stock or, in the case of
an issuance by DSW, on the DSW Stock payable in DSW Stock, or effect a
subdivision of the outstanding shares of, in the case of the Company, Common
Stock or, in the case of DSW, DSW Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than
by payment of a dividend in Common Stock or DSW Stock), then and in any such
event, in the case of the Company, Additional Shares of Common Stock or, in the
case of an issuance by DSW, Additional Shares of DSW Stock shall be deemed to
have been issued:
(i) in the case of any such dividend or distribution, immediately
after the close of business on the record date for the determination of
holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution, or
(ii) in the case of any such subdivision, at the close of business
on the date immediately prior to the date upon which such corporate action
becomes effective.
If such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend shall
not have been fully paid on the date fixed for the payment thereof, the
adjustment previously made in the Purchase Price which became effective on such
record date shall be cancelled as of the close of business on such record date,
and thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.2
as of the time of actual payment of such dividend. For the avoidance of doubt,
after the consummation of a Spin-Off and satisfaction of the Company's
obligations to make the distribution to the Holder required by Section 3.7(b),
no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 3.2 as a result of a stock
dividend or subdivision by DSW.
3.3. Adjustment of Purchase Price upon Issuance of Additional
Shares. If at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the Company
shall issue Additional Shares of Common Stock or DSW shall issue Additional
Shares of DSW Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock or Additional
Shares of DSW Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 3.2(a), but
excluding Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to
Section 3.2(b), which event is dealt with in Section 3.5 hereof) without
consideration or for a consideration per share less than the applicable Purchase
Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, then such
Common Stock Purchase Price or DSW Stock
13
Purchase Price, as the case may be, shall be reduced, concurrently with such
issue, to the price determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the sum of (a)
the number of shares of Common Stock or DSW Stock, as the case may be,
outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale and the number of shares of
Common Stock or DSW Stock, as the case may be, issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant and upon conversion of any Convertible Securities and upon exercise of
any Options multiplied by the then existing applicable Purchase Price and (b)
the consideration, if any, received by the Company or DSW, as the case may be,
upon such issue or sale, by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock or
DSW Stock, as the case may be, outstanding immediately after such issue or sale
and the number of shares of Common Stock or DSW Stock, as the case may be,
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and upon conversion of any Convertible
Securities and upon exercise of any Options. For the avoidance of doubt,
issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock shall result in an adjustment
only to the Common Stock Purchase Price and issuances of Additional Shares of
DSW Stock shall result in an adjustment only to the DSW Stock Purchase Price. In
addition, for the avoidance of doubt, after the consummation of a Spin-Off and
satisfaction of the Company's obligations to make the distribution to the Holder
required by Section 3.7(b), no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section
3.3 as a result of an issuance of Additional Shares of DSW Stock.
3.4. Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this Section 3,
the consideration received by the Company or DSW for the issue of any Additional
Shares of Common Stock or Additional Shares of DSW Stock, as the case may be,
shall be computed as follows:
(a) Cash and Property: Such consideration shall:
(i) insofar as it consists of cash, be the aggregate amount of cash
received by the Company or DSW, as applicable, excluding amounts paid or
payable for accrued interest or accrued dividends;
(ii) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed
at the fair value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good
faith by a committee of the Company's Board of Directors consisting of
directors who are not Affiliates of the Company, SSC or CPLP; provided,
however, that at the request of the Holder, the fair value shall be
determined in good faith by an independent investment banking firm selected
by the Company, SSC and CPLP or, if that selection cannot be made within
ten days, by an independent investment banking firm selected by the
American Arbitration Association in accordance with its rules, and
provided, further, that the Borrower shall pay all of the reasonable fees
and expenses of any third parties incurred in connection with determining
the fair value; and
(iii) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock or Additional
Shares of DSW Stock are issued together with other shares of securities or
other assets of the Company or DSW, as the case may be, for a single
undivided consideration, be the proportion of such consideration so
received allocable to such additional shares, computed as provided in
clauses (i) and (ii) above, as determined in good faith by a committee of
the Company's Board of Directors consisting of directors who are not
Affiliates of the Company, SSC or CPLP, or at the request of the Holder,
the proportion of such
14
consideration so received allocable to such additional shares value shall
be determined in good faith by an independent investment banking firm
selected by the Company, SSC and CPLP or, if that selection cannot be made
within ten days, by an independent investment banking firm selected by the
American Arbitration Association in accordance with its rules, and
provided, further, that the Company shall pay all of the reasonable fees
and expenses of any third parties incurred in connection with determining
the proportion of such consideration so received allocable to such
Additional Shares of Common Stock or Additional Shares of DSW Stock, as the
case may be.
(b) Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share
received by the Company for the Additional Shares of Common Stock or by DSW for
Additional Shares of DSW Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section
3.2(a) shall be determined by dividing:
(x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company
or DSW, as the case may be, as consideration for the issue of such
Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount
of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments
relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein
for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the
Company or DSW, as the case may be, upon the exercise of such
Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities,
the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by
(y) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock or DSW Stock, as
applicable, (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto,
without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent
adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such
Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities.
3.5. Adjustment for Stock Dividends, Stock Distributions,
Subdivisions, Combinations or Consolidations.
(a) Stock Dividends, Stock Distributions or Subdivisions. In the
event the Company shall issue Additional Shares of Common Stock or DSW shall
issue Additional Shares of DSW Stock, pursuant to Section 3.2(b) in a stock
dividend, other stock distribution or subdivision, the applicable Purchase Price
in effect immediately prior to such stock dividend, stock distribution or
subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such stock dividend,
stock distribution or subdivision, be proportionately decreased to adjust
equitably for such dividend, distribution or subdivision.
(b) Combinations or Consolidations. In the event the outstanding
shares of Common Stock or DSW Stock, as the case may be, shall be combined or
consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares
of Common Stock or DSW Stock, as applicable, the applicable Purchase Price in
effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall,
concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, be
proportionately increased to adjust equitably for such combination or
consolidation.
15
(c) No Adjustment after Spin-Off. For the avoidance of doubt, after
the consummation of a Spin-Off and satisfaction of the Company's obligations to
make the distribution to the Holder required by Section 3.7(b), no adjustment
shall be made pursuant to this Section 3.5 as a result of any issuance of
Additional Shares of DSW Stock in a stock dividend, other stock distribution or
subdivision by DSW or combination or consolidation of DSW Stock.
3.6. Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc. In case of any
consolidation or merger of the Company or DSW with or into another corporation
or the conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or
DSW to another corporation, or any reorganization or reclassification of the
Company (except a transaction for which provision for adjustment is otherwise
made in this Section 3) this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the
number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of
the number of shares of Common Stock or DSW Stock, as the case may be,
deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant for such type of Warrant Shares would
have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, reorganization
or reclassification; and, in any such case, appropriate adjustment (as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) shall be made in the
application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the rights and
interest thereafter of the Holder, to the end that the provisions set forth
herein (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of
the applicable Purchase Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as
reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other property
thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not
effect any such consolidation, merger or sale of the Company unless prior to or
simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation or
purchaser, as the case may be, shall assume by written instrument the obligation
to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder is entitled to receive.
Nothing in this Section 3 shall be deemed to authorize the Company to enter into
any transaction not otherwise permitted by this Warrant. For the avoidance of
doubt, after the consummation of a Spin-Off and satisfaction of the Company's
obligations to make the distribution to the Holder required by Section 3.7(b),
no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 3.6 as a result of any
consolidation or merger or the conveyance of all or substantially all of its
assets by DSW.
3.7. Extraordinary Dividends and Distributions.
(a) Subject to Section 3.7(b), if the Company or, prior consummation
of a Spin-Off and satisfaction of the Company's obligations pursuant to Section
3.7(b), DSW, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall
declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without
limitation, any distribution of other or additional stock or other securities or
property or Options by way of dividend or spin-off, reclassification,
recapitalization or similar corporate rearrangement) on, in the case of the
Company, the Common Stock or, in the case of DSW, DSW Stock, other than (a) a
dividend or other distribution payable in Additional Shares of Common Stock or,
in the case of a dividend or other distribution by DSW, Additional Shares of DSW
Stock, or (b) a regularly scheduled cash dividend payable out of consolidated
earnings or earned surplus, determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, adequate provision shall be made so that the Holder shall
receive, upon exercise of this Warrant for such type of Warrant Shares, a pro
rata share of
16
such dividend based upon the maximum number of shares of Common Stock or DSW
Stock, as the case may be, at the time issuable to the Holder (determined
without regard to whether the Warrant is exercisable at such time). For the
avoidance of doubt, dividends and distributions on the DSW Stock shall only be
receivable upon exercise by a Holder of this Warrant for DSW Stock (and only
with respect to the number of shares of DSW Stock for which this Warrant is
exercised) and dividends and distributions on the Common Stock (other than a
Spin-Off) shall only be receivable upon exercise by a Holder of this Warrant for
Common Stock (and only with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Warrant is exercised).
(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, if the
Company shall make any distribution of all shares of DSW Stock owned by it to
its shareholders (a "Spin-Off"), then the Holder of this Warrant shall receive,
and the Company shall deliver to the Holder, upon consummation of the Spin-Off,
that number of shares of DSW Stock which the Holder would have received in such
Spin-Off had the Holder exercised this Warrant, immediately prior to the record
date for such Spin-Off, for the greatest number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Warrant was then exercisable but only with respect to the portion of
this Warrant that remains unexercised on the date of such distribution [for
Cerberus Warrant only: without regard to any limit on exercisability set forth
in Section 2.5 or otherwise in this Warrant or any comparable provision in the
Term Loan Warrants]. Such shares of DSW Stock shall be distributed to the Holder
without payment therefor by the Holder to the Company or action of any kind
required by the Holder to the Company. Upon the consummation of a Spin-Off and
receipt by the Holder of the DSW Stock as provided for in this Section 3.7(b),
this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable for shares of DSW Stock and shall
only be exercisable for Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.1(c).
3.8. Ownership of DSW Stock. The Company shall at all times while
this Warrant is outstanding, but prior to the consummation of a Spin-Off, retain
ownership of at least that number of shares of DSW Stock sufficient to permit
exercise in full of this Warrant and any other outstanding Convertible Warrants
and Term Loan Warrants for shares of DSW Stock [For Cerberus Warrant only:
without regard to any limit on exercisability set forth in Section 2.5 or
otherwise in this Warrant or any comparable provision in the Term Loan
Warrants]. The Company shall take all actions necessary such that the shares of
DSW Stock required hereby to be owned by it shall remain free of all Liens,
other than Permitted Liens.
3.9. De Minimis Adjustments. If the amount of any adjustment of the
Purchase Price required pursuant to Section 3.3 would be less than one tenth
(1/10) of one percent (1%) of such Purchase Price in effect at the time such
adjustment is otherwise so required to be made, such amount shall be carried
forward and adjustment with respect thereto made at the time of and together
with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other
amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate a change in such Purchase
Price of at least one tenth (1/10) of one percent (1%) of such Purchase Price.
All calculations under this Warrant shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth
of a share.
3.10. Abandoned Dividend or Distribution. If the Company shall take
a record of the holders of Common Stock or, if DSW shall take a record of the
holders of DSW Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or
other distribution (which results in an adjustment to the applicable Purchase
Price under the terms of this Warrant) and shall, thereafter,
17
and before such dividend or distribution is paid or delivered to shareholders
entitled thereto, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or
distribution, then any adjustment made to the applicable Purchase Price by
reason of the taking of such record shall be reversed, and any subsequent
adjustments, based thereon, shall be recomputed; provided, however, that no
additional Purchase Price or any other adjustment shall be required with regard
to Warrant Shares that have been issued upon exercise of the Warrant prior to
such abandonment.
4. No Impairment. The Company will not, (i) by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, or (ii) prior or the consummation of a Spin-Off and
satisfaction of the Company's obligations to make the distribution to the Holder
required by Section 3.7(b), by consent to or approval of any amendment of DSW's
articles of incorporation or any consolidation, merger, reorganization, transfer
of assets, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary
action by DSW, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of Section
3 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in
order to protect the exercise rights and other rights of the Holder against
impairment.
5. Accountants' Report. In each case of any adjustment or
readjustment of the Common Stock Purchase Price or DSW Stock Purchase Price
pursuant to Section 3, the Company at its sole expense shall promptly (after
becoming aware of an adjustment with respect to the DSW Stock) compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and
prepare a report setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in
reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof and the facts upon which
such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the
consideration received or to be received by the Company for any Additional
Shares of Common Stock or by DSW for any Additional Shares of DSW Stock issued
or sold or deemed to have been issued under Section 3, (b) the number of shares
of Common Stock or DSW Stock outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c)
the Common Stock Purchase Price or DSW Stock Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such issue or sale and as adjusted and readjusted (if
required by Section 3) on account thereof. The Company shall forthwith mail a
copy of each such report to the Holder. In the event that the Holder disagrees
with such report, the Company shall cause independent certified public
accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the regular auditors
of the Company) selected by the Company to review and verify or revise such
computation (other than any computation of the Fair Market Value of property)
and report. The Company shall also keep copies of all such reports at its
principal office and shall cause the same to be available for inspection at such
office during normal business hours by the Holder.
6. Common Stock Reserved. The Company shall reserve and at all times
keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock (in the case of
Common Stock), free from preemptive or other preferential rights, restrictions,
reservations, dedications, allocations, options, other warrants and other rights
under any stock option, conversion option or similar agreement, such number of
shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect
exercise of this Warrant for such Warrant Shares [For Cerberus Warrant Only:
18
without regard to any limit on exercisability set forth in Section 2.5 or
otherwise in this Warrant or any comparable provision in the Term Loan
Warrants].
7. No Reissuance of Loan. Any portion of the principal amount of the
Holder's portion of the Loan which is reduced in connection with payment of the
Purchase Price for the Warrant Shares as provided herein shall not be reissued.
8. NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION. In the event of:
(a) any taking by the Company or, prior to the consummation of a
Spin-Off and satisfaction of the Company's obligations pursuant to Section
3.7(b), DSW, of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any
dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or
property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) any capital reorganization of the Company or, prior to the
consummation of a Spin-Off and satisfaction of the Company's obligations
pursuant to Section 3.7(b), DSW, any reclassification or recapitalization of the
capital stock of the Company or, prior to the consummation of a Spin-Off and
satisfaction of the Company's obligations pursuant to Section 3.7(b), DSW, any
consolidation or merger involving the Company or, so long as no Spin-Off shall
have occurred, DSW and any other Person, any transaction or series of
transactions in which more than 50% of the voting securities of the Company are
transferred to another Person, or any transfer, sale or other disposition of all
or substantially all the assets of the Company or, prior to the consummation of
a Spin-Off and satisfaction of the Company's obligations pursuant to Section
3.7(b), DSW to any other Person, or
(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up of the Company or, prior to the consummation of a Spin-Off and
satisfaction of the Company's obligations pursuant to Section 3.7(b), DSW, or
(d) any Spin-Off, or
(e) the exercise by the Company of any right or remedy with respect
to its Lien on the capital stock of DSW,
the Company shall mail to each holder of a Warrant a notice specifying (i) the
date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of
such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such
dividend, distribution or right, and (ii) the date or expected date on which any
such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger,
transfer, sale, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take
place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of
record of Common Stock or DSW Stock (or Other Securities) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock or DSW Stock (or Other Securities) for the
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, transfer,
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least 20
days prior to the date therein
19
specified, and in the case of a Spin-off, such notice shall be mailed at least
90 days prior to the record date of such Spin-Off.
9. Closing of Books. The Company will at no time close its transfer
books against the transfer of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise
of this Warrant, except as may otherwise be required to comply with applicable
securities laws.
10. Covenant As To Common Stock. The Company covenants that all
Warrant Shares which may be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be
newly issued shares (except where such Warrant Shares are to be DSW Stock), upon
such delivery will have been duly authorized and validly issued, will be fully
paid and nonassessable and the Company will pay all taxes, liens and charges
with respect to the issue thereof. The Company further covenants that all
governmental, corporate, shareholder and third-party approvals (including those
of any exchange on which such Warrant Shares are, or are proposed to be listed)
for the issuance of shares of Common Stock hereunder will have been duly
obtained and will be in full force and effect on or before any Warrant Shares
are or are required to be issued pursuant to this Section 10.
11. Registration of Stock. If any shares of Common Stock to be
reserved for purposes of exercise of this Warrant require registration with or
approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law (other
than the Securities Act) before such shares may be issued or transferred upon
exercise, the Company shall, at its expense and as expeditiously as possible,
use its best efforts to cause such shares to be duly registered or approved, as
the case may be. At any such time as Common Stock is listed on any national
securities exchange, the Company shall, at its expense, obtain promptly and
maintain the approval for listing on each such exchange, upon official notice of
issuance, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the then
outstanding Warrants and maintain the listing of such shares after their
issuance; and the Company shall also list on such national securities exchange,
register under the Exchange Act and maintain such listing of, any Other
Securities of the Company that at any time are issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants, if and at the time that any securities of the same class shall be
listed on such national securities exchange by the Company.
12. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.
12.1. Restrictive Legends. Except as otherwise permitted by this
Section 12, each Warrant (including each Warrant issued upon the transfer of any
Warrant) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially
the following form:
"THIS WARRANT AND ANY SECURITIES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS
WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS

OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE

EXEMPTION TO THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS. THIS
WARRANT AND SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SPECIFIED
IN THIS WARRANT.
Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 12, each certificate for Common

Warrant, and each certificate issued upon the transfer of any such Common Stock
or DSW Stock (or Other Securities), shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with
a legend in substantially the following form:

REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES
LAW OF ANY STATE, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED
OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT
AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE
EXEMPTION TO THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS."
12.2. Transfer to Comply With the Securities Act. Restricted
Securities may not be sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or in
any manner transferred or disposed of (a "Transfer"), in whole or in part,
except in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and state
securities or Blue Sky laws and the terms and conditions hereof.
12.3. Notice of Transfer. Each Holder shall, prior to any Transfer
of any Warrants, give written notice to the Company of such Holder's intention
to Transfer.
12.4. Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed by this
Section 12 on the transferability of Restricted Securities shall cease and
terminate as to any particular Restricted Securities (a) when a registration
statement with respect to the sale of such securities shall have been declared
effective under the Securities Act and such securities shall have been disposed
of in accordance with such registration statement, (b) when such securities are
sold pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in force) under the
Securities Act, or (c) when, in the reasonable opinion of both counsel for the
Holder and counsel for the Company or DSW, as applicable, such restrictions are
no longer required or necessary in order to protect the Company or DSW, as
applicable, against a violation of the Securities Act upon any sale or other
disposition of such securities without registration thereunder. Whenever such
restrictions shall cease and terminate as to any Restricted Securities that are
Common Stock, the Holder shall be entitled to receive from the Company, without
expense, new securities of like tenor not bearing the applicable legends
required by Section 12.1.
12.5. Exempt Transfers. The restrictions on the transfer of this
Warrant or the Warrant Shares set forth in this Section 12 shall not apply to
any transfer to an affiliate of the Holder or to any transfer to any other
Person, provided that such transfer is made in compliance with the provisions of
the Securities Act and state securities laws.
21
13. SECURITIES ACT MATTERS.
13.1. The Holder represents and warrants to the Company as of the
Effective Date and as of date hereof that:
(a) The Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account,
without a view to, or sale in connection with, the distribution thereof. The
Holder has no present agreement, undertaking, arrangement, commitment or
obligation providing for the disposition of the Warrant or the Warrant Shares,
all without prejudice, however, to the right of the Holder at any time, in
accordance with this Warrant, lawfully to sell or otherwise to dispose of all or
any part of the Warrant or Warrant Shares held by it;
(b) The Holder is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of
Regulation D under the Securities Act. The Holder has not retained, utilized or
been represented by any broker or finder in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Warrant;
(c) The Holder acknowledges that, subject to the Registration Rights
Agreement and the DSW Registration Rights Agreement (A) the Warrants and the
Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, in reliance on
the non-public offering exemption contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act and Regulation D thereunder; (B) because the Warrants and the Warrant Shares
are not so registered, the Holder must bear the economic risk of holding this
Warrant and the Warrant Shares for an indefinite period of time unless the
Warrants and the Warrant Shares are subsequently registered under the Securities
Act or an exemption from such registration is available with respect thereto;
(C) Rule 144 under the Securities Act may or may not be available for resales of
the Warrants or the Warrant Shares in the future and, if so, may only be
available for sales in limited amounts; (D) there is presently no trading market
for the Warrants and there is no assurance that such market will exist in the
future; and (E) while there is presently a trading market for the Warrant
Shares, there is no assurance that such market will be in existence in the
future; and
(d) If the Holder decides to dispose of this Warrant or the Warrant
Shares, which it does not now contemplate, the Holder can do so only in
accordance and in compliance with the Securities Act and Rule 144 or another
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, as then in
effect or through an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.
14. REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF WARRANTS, ETC.
14.1. Warrant Register; Ownership of Warrants. Each Warrant issued
by the Company shall be numbered and shall be registered in a warrant register
(the "Warrant Register") as it is issued and transferred, which Warrant Register
shall be maintained by the Company at its principal office or, at the Company's
election and expense, by a Warrant agent or the transfer agent. The Company
shall be entitled to treat the registered Holder of any Warrant on the Warrant
Register as the owner in fact thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to
recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Warrant on the
part of any other Person, and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary, except that, if and when any Warrant is properly assigned in blank,
the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the
22
bearer thereof as the owner of such Warrant for all purposes. Subject to Section
12, a Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder without a
new Warrant first having been issued.
14.2. Transfer of Warrants. Subject to compliance with Section 12,
if applicable, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole
or in part, without charge to the Holder hereof, upon surrender of this Warrant
with a properly executed Form of Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit C at the
principal office of the Company. Upon any partial transfer, the Company shall at
its expense issue and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the
name of the Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of
Common Stock with respect to which rights under this Warrant were not so
transferred.
14.3. Replacement of Warrants. On receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such
mutilation, on surrender of such Warrant to the Company at its principal office
and cancellation thereof, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver,
in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
14.4. Adjustments to Purchase Price and Number of Shares.
Notwithstanding any adjustment in the Purchase Price or in the number or kind of
Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, any Warrant
theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number and
kind of Warrant Shares as are stated in this Warrant, as initially issued.
14.5. Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any adjustment pursuant to
Section 3 in the number of Warrant Shares covered by this Warrant or any other
provision of this Warrant, the Company shall not be required to issue or
transfer fractions of shares upon exercise of this Warrant or to distribute
certificates which evidence fractional shares. In lieu of fractional shares, the
Company shall make payment to the Holder, at the time of exercise of this
Warrant as herein provided, in an amount in cash equal to such fraction
multiplied by the applicable Purchase Price on the date of Warrant exercise.
15. Remedies; Specific Performance. The Company stipulates that
there would be no adequate remedy at law to any Holder in the event of any
default or threatened default by the Company in the performance of or compliance
with any of the terms of this Warrant and accordingly, the Company agrees that,
in addition to any other remedy to which the Holder may be entitled at law or in
equity, the Holder shall be entitled to seek to compel specific performance of
the obligations of the Company under this Warrant, without the posting of any
bond, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Warrant in any court
of the United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction, and if any action
should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Warrant,
the Company shall not raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
Except as otherwise provided by law, a delay or omission by the Holder hereto in
exercising any right or remedy accruing upon any such breach shall not impair
the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in any such
breach. No remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies
shall be cumulative.
23
16. No Rights or Liabilities as Shareholder. Nothing contained in
this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof any rights
as a shareholder of the Company or as imposing any obligation on the Holder to
purchase any securities or as imposing any liabilities on the Holder as a
shareholder of the Company, whether such obligation or liabilities are asserted
by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
17. Notices. All notices and other communications (and deliveries)
provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery,
telecopier, any nationally-recognized courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or

prepaid, addressed as follows:

in accordance with the law of the State of New York.
21. Registration Rights Agreement. The shares of Common Stock (and
Other Securities of the Company) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
constitute Registrable Securities (as such term is defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled to all of the benefits afforded
to a holder of any such Registrable Securities under the Registration Rights
Agreement and such Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound
by and to comply with the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights
Agreement and the DSW Registration Rights Agreement, applicable to such Holder
as a holder of such Registrable Securities. In addition to the foregoing, to the
extent the Holder exercises this Warrant into DSW Stock within 180 days of a
Qualifying IPO, such Holder agrees not to transfer such Warrant Shares until the
date that is 181 days after the closing date of such Qualifying IPO.
22. Costs and Attorneys' Fees. In the event that any action, suit or
other proceeding is instituted concerning or arising out of this Warrant, the
Company agrees and the Holder, by taking and holding this Warrant agrees, that
the prevailing party shall recover from the non-prevailing party all of such
prevailing party's costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in each and
every such action, suit or other proceeding, including any and all appeals or
petitions therefrom.
23. EXPIRATION. The right to exercise this Warrant shall expire at
