WARRANT AGREEMENT
between
GLENDALE FEDERAL BANK,
FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK
and
CHEMICAL TRUST COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA
as Warrant Agent
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock
-------------------------------------------------------------
Dated as of August 15, 1993
WARRANT AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT, dated as of August 15, 1993, between GLENDALE FEDERAL BANK,
FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK, a federally chartered stock savings bank (the "Bank"), and
----
CHEMICAL TRUST COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA, as Warrant Agent (the "Warrant Agent").
-------------
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization entered into among the
Bank, GLENFED, Inc. and Glendale Investment Corporation (the "Reorganization
--------------
Plan"), the Bank proposes to conduct several interdependent transactions for the
----
purpose of increasing the regulatory capital of the Bank; and
WHEREAS, in connection with the Reorganization Plan, the Bank proposes to
issue and deliver its warrant certificates (the "Warrant Certificates")
--------------------
evidencing warrants (the "Warrants") to acquire, under certain circumstances, an
--------
aggregate of up to approximately 10.85 million shares, subject to adjustment, of
its common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Bank Common Stock"), and
-----------------
WHEREAS, each such Warrant will entitle the owner of record thereof to
acquire one share of Bank Common stock, subject to adjustment.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and for the purpose of
defining the terms and provisions of the Warrants and the respective rights and
obligations thereunder of the Bank and the record holders of the Warrants, the
Bank and the Warrant Agent each hereby agrees as follows:
ARTICLE I
ISSUANCE AND EXECUTION OF WARRANTS
Section 1.01 Form of Warrant Certificates. The text of each Warrant
----------------------------
Certificate (and the related forms of exercise and assignment) shall be
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and may have such legends
---------
and endorsements typed, stamped, printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as
the Bank may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of
this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or
regulation pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities
exchange or over-the-counter market on which the Warrants may be listed or
quoted, or to conform to customary usage.
Section 1.02 Execution and Countersignature of Warrant Certificates.
------------------------------------------------------
Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Bank by its Chief
Executive Officer, President or any Vice President and attested by its Secretary
or an Assistant Secretary, and delivered to the Warrant Agent, and shall be
countersigned and delivered by the Warrant Agent, upon the written order of the
Bank signed by any such officer of the Bank. Each Warrant Certificate shall be
dated the date of its counter-signature by the Warrant Agent either upon initial
issuance or upon division, exchange, substitution or transfer. Warrant
Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Bank either manually or by
facsimile signature printed thereon. The Warrant Agent shall countersign the
Warrant Certificate manually, and no Warrant Certificate shall be valid for any
purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer whose signature has been
placed upon any Warrant Certificate ceases to be such before such Warrant
Certificate is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if such officer
had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.
ARTICLE II
EXERCISE PRICE, TERM, REDEMPTION
AND METHOD OF EXERCISE
Section 2.01 Exercise Price. Each Warrant Certificate shall, when
--------------
countersigned by the Warrant Agent, entitle the registered holder thereof (the
"Warrant Holder"), subject to the provisions thereof and of this Agreement, to
--------------
purchase one share of Bank Common Stock for each Warrant represented thereby at
an exercise price of Twelve Dollars ($12.00) per share in lawful money of the
United States of America (such exercise price per share, as adjusted from time
to time as provided herein, is referred to herein as the "Exercise Price").
--------------
Section 2.02 Warrant Rights. Each Warrant shall entitle the Warrant
--------------
Holder, upon exercise thereof and payment of the Exercise Price (and any taxes
as contemplated in this Agreement) within the period described in Section 2.03,
------------
and subject to the provisions of the Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrant
and this Agreement, including provisions relating to adjustments upon the
occurrence of certain events as set forth in Article III hereof, to receive one
-----------
fully paid and nonassessable share of Bank Common Stock.
Section 2.03 Period of Exercise; Expiration. Each Warrant may be
------------------------------
exercised on any business day during the period commencing on the day following
the first anniversary of the completion of the Recapitalization (as defined in
the Reorganization Plan) and
- 2 -
ending at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the seventh anniversary of the date
of the initial issuance of the Warrants or, if such date is not a business day
in the City of New York, then on the next succeeding business day (the
"Expiration Date"). Each Warrant not exercised by 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and
all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall thereupon cease.
Section 2.04 Method of Exercise. Exercise of Warrants shall be effected
------------------
by: (a) surrender of the Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrants to the
Warrant Agent, with one of the forms on the reverse of or attached to the
Warrant Certificate duly completed and executed by the Warrant Holder thereof or
by a duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized
attorney (and with any signatures guaranteed as may be required pursuant to the
Warrant Certificate); and (b) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the
shares of Bank Common Stock to which such exercise relates. Warrant
Certificates representing Warrants being exercised (accompanied by payment
therefor) shall be surrendered at the office of the Warrant Agent. In the event
that any Warrant Holder shall exercise less than all of the Warrants evidenced
by a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon exercise of Warrants, a new Warrant
Certificate for the balance of such Warrants shall be countersigned and
delivered to, or in accordance with the instructions of, such Warrant Holder.
Promptly upon surrender of a Warrant Certificate in conformity with the
foregoing provisions, the Warrant Agent (after requisitioning any certificates
for shares of Bank Common Stock from the Bank's transfer agent, if necessary)
shall deliver to, or in accordance with the instructions of, the Warrant Holder
certificates for the total number of whole shares of Bank Common Stock for which
the Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificates are being exercised (subject
to the provisions of Section 4.04) in such names and denominations as the
------------
Warrant Holder has directed; provided, however, that, if, on the date of
-------- -------
surrender of such Warrant Certificate, the transfer books for the Bank Common
Stock shall be closed, the certificates for the shares of Bank Common Stock
shall be issuable as of the date on which such books shall next be open (whether
before, on or after the Expiration Date) at the Exercise Price and upon the
other conditions in effect on the date of such surrender.
Section 2.05 Disposition of Proceeds on Exercise of Warrants. The Warrant
-----------------------------------------------
Agent shall account promptly to the Bank with respect to Warrants exercised and
concurrently pay to the Bank all moneys received by the Warrant Agent for the
purchase of shares of Bank Common Stock through the exercise of such Warrants.
- 3 -
Section 2.06. Cancellation of Warrants. In the event the Bank shall
------------------------
purchase or otherwise acquire Warrants, the same shall thereupon be delivered
to the Warrant Agent and be cancelled by it and retired. The Warrant Agent
shall cancel any Warrant surrendered for exchange, substitution, transfer or
exercise in whole or in part.
ARTICLE III
ADJUSTMENTS TO WARRANTS UPON CERTAIN EVENTS
Section 3.01. Adjustments to Warrant Shares or Exercise Price. The number
-----------------------------------------------
of shares of Bank Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant (such
shares being referred to in this Article III as the "Warrant Shares") and the
----------- --------------
Exercise Price, as applicable, shall be subject to adjustment solely as follows:
(a) In case the Bank shall at any time after the date of this Agreement
(i) declare a dividend on, or make a distribution with respect to, Bank Common
Stock which is payable in shares of Bank Common Stock, (ii) subdivide the
outstanding shares of Bank Common Stock, (iii) combine the outstanding shares of
Bank Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issue any shares of
capital stock of the Bank in a reclassification of the Bank Common Stock, the
number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted so that the holder of each Warrant
shall be entitled to receive upon payment of the Exercise Price the aggregate
number and kind of shares of Bank Common Stock or other capital stock of the
Bank which, if such Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the
occurrence of such event, such holder would have owned or have been entitled to
receive immediately after the occurrence of such event. The time of occurrence
of an event giving rise to an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3.01(a)
---------------
shall, in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification, be the
effective date thereof and shall, in case of a dividend or distribution, be the
record date thereof.
(b) If at any time after the date hereof, the Bank shall, to or for the
account or benefit of all holders of the outstanding shares of Bank Common
Stock, make, without any charge, any distribution of rights to subscribe or
warrants to purchase Bank Common Stock at a price per share less than the
Current Market Price (as defined below) of such Bank Common Stock (not
including, in any event, the rights to purchase Bank Common Stock to be issued
pursuant to the Reorganization Plan) on the record date for such distribution or
issuance, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately thereafter so that it
shall equal the price determined in accordance with the following formula:
- 4 -
WP' = WP X A + B(SP/CMP)
------------------
A + B
Where:
WP' = Adjusted Exercise Price;
WP = Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to adjustment;
A = Number of shares of Bank Common Stock outstanding on the
record date for such distribution or issuance;
B = Number of shares of Bank Common Stock so offered for
subscription or purchase;
SP = Subscription or purchase price per share issuable upon
exercise of such rights or warrants; and
CMP = Current Market Price on the record date for such distribution or
issuance
An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3.01(b) shall become effective
---------------
immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled
to receive such distribution or issuance.
(c) Upon each adjustment of the number or kind of shares of capital
stock purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant pursuant to Section 3.01(a),
---------------
the Exercise Price shall also be adjusted such that upon the exercise of a
Warrant by a Warrant Holder thereafter, and payment of an amount equal to the
Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment, such Warrant Holder shall
be entitled to receive the number and kind of such shares of capital stock that
such Warrant Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive immediately
after the occurrence, and as a result, of the event giving rise to such
adjustment had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the occurrence
of such event. If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section
-------
3.01(a), a Warrant Holder shall become entitled to receive, upon exercise of its
-------
Warrants and payment therefor, shares of two or more classes of capital stock,
the Board of Directors of the Bank (whose determination with respect to the
matter shall be conclusive and shall be described in a resolution adopted with
respect thereto) shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price
between or among shares of such classes of capital stock. After each adjustment
of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3.01(b), the total number of Warrant
---------------
- 5 -
Shares or fractional part thereof purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant
shall not be proportionately adjusted.
(d) Except for adjustments required by Section 3.01(e), no adjustment in
---------------
the Exercise Price or in the number of Warrant Shares shall be required unless
such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent
(1%) in such Exercise Price or in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable;
provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 3.01(d)
-------- ------- ---------------
are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in
any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 3.01 shall be
------------
made to the nearest cent and to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the
case may be.
(e) In case of any consolidation of the Bank with, or merger of the Bank
into, another corporation or in case of any sale or conveyance to another
corporation or entity of the property of the Bank as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety (such successor or purchaser corporation or entity
being referred to for purposes of this Section 3.01(e) as the "Acquiring
--------------- ---------
Corporation"), the Bank or the Acquiring Corporation, as the case may be, shall
-----------
execute with the Warrant Agent an agreement that each Warrant Holder shall have
the right, upon exercise of each of its Warrants and payment, prior to 5:00
p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, of the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, to
purchase upon exercise of such Warrant or Warrants the kind and amount of shares
or other securities or property (including cash) that such holder would have
owned or have been entitled to receive immediately after the happening of such
action, had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto. The Bank
shall mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each
Warrant Holder, notice of the execution of any such agreement. Such agreement
shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as may
be practicable to the adjustments provided for herein. The provisions of this
Section 3.01(e) shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers,
---------------
sales or conveyances. The Warrant Agent shall be under no responsibility to
determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any such agreement
relating either to the kind or amount of shares or other securities or property
receivable upon exercise of Warrants or with respect to the method employed and
provided therein for any adjustments and shall be entitled to rely upon the
provisions contained in any such agreement.
(f) Upon the expiration of any rights or warrants pursuant to which an
adjustment in the Exercise Price has been made pursuant to Section 3.01(b)
---------------
hereof, if any of such rights or warrants shall not have been exercised, the
Exercise Price in
- 6 -
effect upon such expiration shall be readjusted in the following manner: (i)
the adjusted Exercise Price determined in respect of the original distribution
of the expired rights or warrants pursuant to Section 3.01(b) hereof (the
---------------
"Original Adjusted Exercise Price") shall be replaced with a revised Exercise
--------------------------------
Price (the "Revised Exercise Price")determined by applying the formula set forth
----------------------
in Section 3.01(b) hereof, using the same values for each of the variables in
---------------
such formula as were used in calculating the Original Adjusted Exercise Price,
except that the value for variable "B" shall equal the number of shares of Bank
Common Stock, if any, actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such rights
or warrants, rather than the number of shares of Bank Common Stock offered for
subscription or purchase; and (ii) if any further adjustments shall have been
made to the Original Adjusted Exercise Price pursuant to either Section 3.01(b)
---------------
or (c) subsequent to the original distribution of the expired rights or
---
warrants, then each such subsequent adjustment shall be recalculated in the same
manner as originally determined, using as a starting point for such subsequent
adjustments the Revised Exercise Price in place of the Original Adjusted
Exercise Price.
(g) Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares shall be
adjusted as provided in this Section 3.01, the Bank shall forthwith file with
------------
the Warrant Agent a certificate, signed by the chief financial officer of the
Bank, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise
Price and the number of Warrant Shares that will be effective after such
adjustment. The Warrant Agent shall have no duty with respect to any certificate
filed with it except to keep the same on file and available for inspection by
Warrant Holders during reasonable business hours. The Warrant Agent shall not at
any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Warrant Holder to determine
whether any facts exists which may require any adjustment of the Exercise Price
or in the number of Warrant Shares, or with respect to the nature of any
adjustment of the Exercise Price or in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
upon the exercise of each Warrant when made, or with respect to the method
employed in making such adjustment, and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of
any such adjustment unless and until it shall receive such certificate.
(h) In case the Bank after the date hereof shall propose to take any action
of the type described in this Section 3.01 (except for actions which, pursuant
------------
to Section 3.01(d), would not require an adjustment of the Exercise Price or the
---------------
number of Warrant Shares), the Bank shall give notice thereof to the Warrant
Agent by filing with the Warrant Agent a certificate, signed by the Chairman or
Vice Chairman of the Board of directors, the President or any Vice President of
the Bank and the Bank's Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer or Secretary or any
Assistant Secretary, specifying the date on which such action
- 7 -
shall take place, and shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as
shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the
extent such facts may be known on the date of such notice) on the Exercise Price
and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which
shall be purchaseable upon exercise of Warrants. The Bank also shall cause a
notice setting forth any such proposed adjustments to be sent by mailing first
class, postage prepaid, to each Warrant Holder as of a date within ten (10) days
of the date of such notice at its address appearing on the Warrant register.
Failure to give such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the legality
or validity of such action. Such notices shall be given, in the case of any
action of the type specified in Sections 3.01(a) and (b), at least ten (10) days
---------------- ---
prior to the effective date or the record date, as applicable, with respect
thereto and in the case of any action of the type specified in Sections 3.01(e)
----------------
and (f), at least ten (10) days prior to the taking of such proposed action.
---
(i) Irrespective of any of the adjustments in the Exercise Price or the
number of Warrant Shares, Warrant Certificates shall continue to express on the
face thereof the same price and number of Warrant Shares as stated in a similar
Warrant Certificate issuable initially pursuant to this Agreement and such
number of Warrant Shares and price specified therein shall be deemed to have
been so adjusted.
(j) For purposes of this Section 3.01, the "Current Market Price" per
------------ --------------------
share of Bank Common Stock on any date shall be deemed to be the arithmetic
average of the Market Price per share of Bank Common Stock (as defined below)
for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days (as defined below) ending of the
Trading Day immediately preceding the day in question. "Market Price" for each
------------
Trading Day shall be the closing sale price for the Bank Common Stock of the New
York Stock Exchange, or if no such sale has taken place on such day, then the
average of the closing bid and ask prices for the Bank Common Stock on the New
York Stock Exchange. If the Bank Common Stock hereafter ceases to be listed or
admitted for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, but is listed or admitted
for trading on a national securities exchange, the Market Price shall be the
closing price (or if no such sale has taken place on such day, then the average
of the closing bid and ask prices) on the principal national securities exchange
on which the Bank Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading. If the Bank
Common Stock is not, or hereafter ceases to be, listed or admitted for trading
on any national securities exchange, the Market Price shall be the closing sale
price quoted (or, if no such price is quoted for such day, then the average of
the closing bid and ask prices quoted) for the Bank Common Stock on the NASDAQ
National Market System, or, if the Bank Common Stock is not quoted on such
National Market System, the average
- 8 -
of the closing bid and ask prices as furnished by any New York Stock Exchange
member firm selected from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Bank for
such purposes (other than the Bank or any affiliate thereof). In the event that
it is impracticable for the Board of Directors of the Bank to establish the
Market Price of the Bank Common Stock as contemplated herein, Market Price shall
mean the fair market value of the Bank Common Stock as determined in good faith
by the Board of Directors of the Bank. "Trading Day" shall be each Monday
-----------
through Friday, other than any day on which securities are not traded in the
system or on the exchange that is the principal market for the Bank Common
Stock, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Bank.
(k) For the purposes of this Section 3.01, the term "Bank Common Stock"
------------ -----------------
shall mean (i) the class of capital stock designated as the Common Stock, par
value $1.00 per share, of the Bank, at the date of this Agreement or (ii) any
other class of stock resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of
such capital stock consisting solely of changes in par value, or from par value
to no par value, or from no par value to par value. In the event that at any
time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or (e),
--------------- ---
shares of the Bank other than shares of Bank Common Stock are issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants, thereafter the number and Exercise Price of such other
shares so issuable shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner
and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect
to the Bank Common Stock contained in this Section 3.01, as may be determined in
------------
good faith by the Board of Directors of the Bank, and all other provisions of
this Agreement with respect to Bank Common Stock shall apply on like terms to
any such other shares. Subject to the foregoing, and unless the context
requires otherwise, all references to Bank Common Stock and Warrant Shares in
this Agreement and in the Warrant Certificates shall, in the event of an
adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.01, be deemed to refer also to any other
------------
securities or property then issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as a result
of such adjustment.
Section 3.02 No Adjustment for Cash Dividends. No adjustment shall be
--------------------------------
made in the Exercise Price or in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon
exercise of the Warrants in respect of any cash dividends paid or payable on
shares of Bank Common Stock or other securities of the Bank.
ARTICLE IV
RIGHTS OF WARRANT HOLDERS
Section 4.01 No Rights as Stockholders. No Warrant Holder, as such, shall
-------------------------
be entitled to vote or to receive dividends or shall otherwise be deemed to be
the holder of shares of Bank Common Stock for any purpose, nor shall anything
contained herein or in any Warrant Certificate be construed to confer upon any
Warrant Holder, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Bank or any
right to vote upon or give or withhold consent to any action of the Bank
(whether upon any reorganization, issuance of securities, reclassification or
conversion of Bank Common Stock, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance
or otherwise), receive notice of meetings or other action affecting stockholders
(except for notices expressly provided for in this Agreement) or receive
dividends or subscription rights, unless and until such Warrant Certificate
shall have been surrendered for exercise as provided in this Agreement, payment
in respect of such exercise shall have been received by the Warrant Agent, and
shares of Bank Common Stock thereunder shall have become issuable and such
person shall have been deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares.
If, at the date of surrender of such Warrant Certificate, the transfer books for
the Bank Common Stock shall be closed, certificates for the shares of Bank
Common Stock shall be issuable on the date on which such books shall next be
open (whether before, on or after the Expiration Date) and, until such date, the
Bank shall be under no duty to deliver any certificate for such shares of Bank
Common Stock. No Warrant Holder shall, upon the exercise of Warrants, be
entitled to any dividends if the record date with respect to payment of such
dividends shall be a date prior to the date such shares of Bank Common Stock
became issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants.
Section 4.02 Lost Warrants. If any Warrant Certificate is lost, stolen,
-------------
mutilated or destroyed, the Warrant Agent may, upon receipt of evidence
satisfactory to the Bank and the Warrant Agent of such loss, theft, mutilation
or destruction and on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as the Bank and
the Warrant Agent may in their discretion require (which shall, in the case of a
mutilated Warrant Certificate, include the surrender thereof), issue a new
Warrant Certificate of like denomination and tenor as the lost, stolen,
mutilated or destroyed Certificate, and the Warrant Agent shall countersign and
deliver such new Certificate. Applicants for such substitute Warrant
Certificates shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay
such reasonable charges as the Bank or the Warrant Agent may prescribe. In the
event any Warrant Certificate is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, and the
owner thereof desires to exercise the Warrants evidenced thereby, the Bank may,
in lieu of issuing a substitute Warrant Certificate, authorize the exercise
thereof upon receipt of the above evidence and on such terms of indemnity as it
may require.
- 10 -
Section 4.03 Maintenance of Sufficient and Proper Shares of Bank Common
----------------------------------------------------------
Stock; Listing; Continuing Registration.
---------------------------------------
(a) The Bank shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of
authorized shares of Bank Common stock (and any other securities that may become
issuable upon the exercise of Warrants) sufficient to permit the exercise in
full of all outstanding Warrants and will cause to be available to the Warrant
Agent a sufficient number of certificates therefor. The transfer agent for the
Bank Common Stock is hereby irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to
reserve such number of authorized shares of Bank Common Stock (or other
securities) for such purpose. The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably
authorized to requisition from time to time from such transfer agent
certificates for shares of Bank Common stock issuable upon exercise of
outstanding Warrants and the Bank shall supply such transfer agent with duly
executed certificates for such purpose.
(b) The Bank covenants and agrees that it will use its best efforts to
secure the listing of shares of Bank Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
the Warrants upon any and all securities exchanges on which the Bank Common
Stock shall be listed at the dates of exercise of such Warrants.
(c) So long as any unexpired Warrants remain outstanding and to the
extent required in order to comply with the applicable regulations of the Office
of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS Rules"), the Bank covenants and agrees to file
---------
such post-effective amendments to the offering circular filed with respect to
the Warrants under cover of Form OC pursuant to the OTS Rules (OTS No. 3088), or
such other offering circulars, post-effective amendments or supplements, as may
be necessary to permit the Bank to offer and sell in accordance with the OTS
Rules shares of Bank Common Stock upon the exercise of Warrants pursuant to this
Agreement. The Bank further covenants and agrees that, so long as any unexpired
Warrants remain outstanding, it shall exercise its reasonable diligence to
obtain and keep effective any other permits, consents and approvals of other
governmental authorities, and to qualify the shares of Bank Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of Warrants, and maintain such qualification, under
the securities laws of such of the States of the United States, as may be
necessary to permit the offer and sale of shares of Bank Common Stock upon the
exercise of Warrants pursuant to this Agreement. The Bank shall not be required
to issue any shares of Bank Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of Warrants
for any period during which the Bank is endeavoring to obtain such continuing
registration, permits, consents, approvals or qualifications.
Section 4.04 Fractional Shares and Warrants.
------------------------------
- 11 -
(a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Bank
shall not be required to issue any fraction of a share of Bank Common Stock in
connection with the exercise of Warrants. Warrants may not be exercised in such
number as would result (except for the provisions of this Section) in the
issuance of a fraction of a share of Bank Common Stock unless the Warrant Holder
is presenting for exercise Warrant Certificates representing all Warrants then
owned of record by such Warrant Holder. In such event, the Bank shall, upon the
exercise of all of such Warrants, issue to such Warrant Holder the aggregate
number of shares of Bank Common Stock called for thereby, rounded to the nearest
whole number of shares.
(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Bank shall not
be required to issue fractions of Warrants on any distribution of Warrants to
Warrant Holders or to distribute Warrant Certificates that evidence fractional
Warrants. In such event, the Bank shall issue to such Warrant Holders the
aggregate number of Warrants to which such Warrant Holders are entitled, in each
case rounded to the nearest whole Warrant.
Section 4.05 Transfer and Exchange of Warrants. The Warrant Certificates
---------------------------------
shall be issued in registered form only. The Bank shall cause to be kept at the
office of the Warrant Agent a register in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Warrant Agent may prescribe, the Bank shall provide for the
registration of Warrant Certificates and of transfers or exchanges of Warrant
Certificates as herein provided.
At the option of the Warrant Holder, Warrant Certificates may be exchanged
at such office, and upon payment of the charges hereinafter provided. Whenever
any Warrant Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Bank shall
execute, and the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver, the Warrant
Certificates that the Warrant Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
All Warrant Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Warrant Certificates shall be the valid obligations of the Bank,
evidencing the same obligations, and entitled to the same benefits under this
Agreement, as the Warrant Certificates surrendered for such registration of
transfer or exchange.
Every Warrant Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall (if so required by the Bank of the Warrant Agent) be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Bank and the Warrant Agent, duly executed by the Warrant
Holder thereof by a duly appointed legal representative or by a duly authorized
- 12 -
attorney (and with any signatures guaranteed as may be required pursuant to the
Warrant Certificate).
No service charge shall be made by the Warrant Agent for any registration
of transfer or exchange of Warrant Certificates. The Bank may require payment of
a sum sufficient to cover certain taxes or other governmental charges as
provided in Section 6.03.
------------
Any Warrant Certificate when duly endorsed in blank shall be deemed
negotiable and when a Warrant Certificate shall have been so endorsed, the
holder thereof may be treated by the Bank, the Warrant Agent and all other
persons dealing therewith as the absolute owner thereof for any purpose and as
the person entitled to exercise the rights represented thereby, or to transfer
thereof on the register of the Bank maintained by the Warrant Agent, any notice
to the contrary notwithstanding; but until such transfer on such register, the
Bank and the Warrant Agent may treat the Warrant Holder thereof as the owner for
all purposes.
ARTICLE V
WARRANT AGENT
Section 5.01 Nature of Duties and Responsibilities Assumed. The Bank hereby
---------------------------------------------
appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent of the Bank as set forth in this
Agreement. The Warrant Agent hereby accepts the appointment as agent of the Bank
and agrees to perform that agency upon the terms and conditions herein set
forth, by all of which the Bank and conditions herein set forth by all of which
the Bank and the Warrant Holders, by their acceptance of the Warrants, shall be
bound.
Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Warrant
Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or
established by the Bank prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such
fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a
certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Vice
President or the Secretary of the Bank and delivered to the Warrant Agent; and
such certificate shall be full authorization to the Warrant Agent for any action
taken or suffered in good faith by it under the provisions of this Agreement in
reliance upon such certificate.
The Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own negligence,
bad faith or willful misconduct. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for or by
reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this Agreement
or in the Warrant Certificates (except its countersignature on the Warrant
- 13 -
Certificates and such statements or recitals as describe the Warrant Agent or
action taken or to be taken by it) or be required to verify the same, but all
such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the
Bank only. The Warrant Agent shall not have any liability or responsibility in
respect of the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the
execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by the Warrant
Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any Warrant Certificate
(except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible or liable for
any breach by the Bank of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement
or in any Warrant Certificate; nor shall it be responsible or liable for the
making of any change in the number of shares of Bank Common Stock required under
the provisions of Article III or responsible for the manner, method or amount of
-----------
any such change or the ascertaining of the existence of any facts that would
require any such adjustment or change; nor shall it by any act hereunder be
deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or
reservation of any shares of Bank Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this
Agreement or any Warrant Certificate or as to whether any shares of Bank Common
Stock will, when issued, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
The Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to institute any action,
suit or legal proceeding or take any other action likely to involve expense
unless the Bank or one or more Warrant Holders shall furnish the Warrant Agent
with reasonable security and indemnity for any costs and expenses which may be
incurred. All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of the Warrants
may be enforced by the Warrant Agent without the possession of any of the
Warrants or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative
thereto, and any such action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Warrant Agent
shall be brought in its name as Warrant Agent, and any recovery of judgement
shall be for the ratable benefit of the Warrant Holders, as their respective
rights or interests may appear. The Warrant Agent shall promptly notify the Bank
in writing of any claim made or action, suit or proceeding instituted against it
arising out of or in connection with this Agreement.
The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept written
instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder from the
Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Vice President or the Secretary of
the Bank, and to apply to any such officer for advice or instructions in
connection with the Warrant Agent's duties, and it shall not be liable for any
action taken or suffered to be taken or omitted by it in good faith in
accordance with the instructions of any such officer.
- 14 -
The Warrant Agent will not be responsible or liable for any failure of the
Bank to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or in the
Warrant Certificates to be complied with by the Bank. The Warrant Agent will
not incur any liability or responsibility to the Bank or to any Warrant Holder
for any action taken, or any failure to take action, in reliance on any notice,
resolution, waiver, consent, order, certificate, or other paper, document or
instrument reasonably believed by the Warrant Agent to be genuine and to have
been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties.
The Warrant Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights and powers
hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through
its attorneys, agents or employees, provided reasonable care has been exercised
in the selection and in the continued employment of any such attorney, agent or
employee.
The Bank will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be
performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further acts,
instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent in
order to enable it to carry out or perform its duties under this Agreement.
The Warrant Agent will act hereunder solely as agent of the Bank in a
ministerial capacity, and its duties will be determined solely by the provisions
hereof. The Warrant Agent will not be liable for anything which it may do or
refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement except for its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event
shall the Warrant Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or
damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even
if the Warrant Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage
and regardless of the form of action.
Section 5.02 Right to Consult Counsel. The Warrant Agent may at any time
------------------------
consult with legal counsel satisfactory to it (who may be legal counsel for the
Bank), and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection to the Warrant Agent as to any action taken, suffered or omitted
by it in good faith in accordance with such opinion; provided, however, that the
-------- -------
Warrant Agent shall have exercised reasonable care in the selection of such
counsel.
Section 5.03 Compensation and Reimbursement. The Bank agrees to pay to
------------------------------
the Warrant Agent from time to time compensation for all services rendered by it
hereunder as the Bank and the Warrant Agent may agree from time to time, and to
reimburse the
- 15 -
Warrant Agent for reasonable expenses and disbursements incurred in connection
with the execution and administration of this Agreement (including the
reasonable compensation and the expenses of its counsel), and further agrees to
indemnify the Warrant Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss,
liability or expense incurred without negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance and
administration of this Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending
itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.
Section 5.04 Warrant Agent May Hold Bank Securities. The Warrant Agent
--------------------------------------
and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Warrant Agent may buy,
sell or deal in any of the Warrants or other securities of the Bank or its
affiliates or have a pecuniary interest in any transaction in which the Bank or
its affiliates may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Bank or
its affiliates or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not the
Warrant Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant
Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Bank or for any other legal
entity.
Section 5.05 Change of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may resign and be
-----------------------
discharged from its duties under this Agreement upon 60 days' prior notice in
writing mailed, by registered or certified mail, to the Bank. The Bank may
remove the Warrant Agent upon 60 days' prior notice in writing, mailed to the
Warrant Agent by registered or certified mail. If the Warrant Agent shall
resign or be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Bank
shall appoint a successor to the Warrant Agent (the "Successor Warrant Agent")
-----------------------
and shall, within 30 days following such appointment, give notice thereof in
writing to each Warrant Holder. If the Bank shall fail to make such appointment
within a period of 30 days after giving notice of such removal or after it has
been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or
incapacitated Warrant Agent, then the Bank agrees to perform the duties of the
Warrant Agent hereunder until the Successor Warrant Agent is appointed. After
appointment, the Successor Warrant Agent shall be vested with the same powers,
rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as
Warrant Agent without further act or deed; but the Warrant Agent shall deliver
and transfer to the Successor Warrant Agent any property at the time held by it
hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or
deed necessary for the purpose. Failure to give any notice provided for in this
Section, however, or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or
validity of the registration or removal of the Warrant Agent or the appointment
of the Successor Warrant Agent, as the case may be.
