STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
AVIATION HOLDINGS GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
for value received, hereby certifies that Argaman, Inc., an Isle of St. Kitts,
Nevis Corporation, or its registered assigns, is entitled to purchase from the
Company, at any time or from time to time during the period specified in Section
2 hereof, 100,000 fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, par value
$.0001, of the Company (the "Common Stock"), at an exercise price equal to $3.75
per share (the "Exercise Price"), subject to the terms, conditions and
adjustments set forth herein. As used herein, the term "Warrant Shares" means
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
1. Manner of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates; Payment for Shares.
Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder
hereof, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant, together with a
completed exercise agreement in the form attached hereto (the "Exercise
Agreement"), to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at
the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the
Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), and upon payment to
the Company in cash, by certified or offi cial bank check or by wire transfer to
an account specified by the Company of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares
specified in the Exercise Agreement. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be
deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or such holder's designee, as the
record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which
this Warrant shall have been surrendered, the completed Exercise Agreement shall
have been delivered, and payment shall have been made for such shares as set
forth above. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased, representing the
aggregate number of shares specified in the Exercise Agreement, shall be
delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding three
business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates
so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the holder
hereof and shall be registered in the name of such holder or such other name as
such holder may designate and upon payment by such holder of any applicable
transfer taxes. In the event this Warrant is exercised in part, the Company
shall also deliver a new warrant to the holder hereof, which warrant shall be
identical to this Warrant, except that the number of Warrant Shares shall be
decreased by the number of Warrant Shares so purchased.
2. Period of Exercise. This Warrant is exercisable at any time or from
time to time before 5:00 p.m., eastern time on the third anniversary of the date
hereof (the "Exercise Period").
A-1
3. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company covenants as follows:
(a) Shares to be Fully Paid. All Warrant Shares shall, upon issuance
in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be validly issued, fully paid, and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the
issue thereof.
(b) Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company
shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance
upon exercise of this Warrant, a suf ficient number of shares of Common Stock to
provide for the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company shall not, by amendment
of its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of
any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but shall at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this
Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by
the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the
holder of this Warrant against impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose
of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company
shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(d) Successors and Assigns. This Warrant shall be binding upon any
entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation, or acquisition of all
or substantially all the Company's assets.
4. Antidilution Provisions. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise
Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time
to time as provided in this Section 4.
(a) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at
any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the Common Stock into a greater
number of shares, then, after the record date for effecting such subdivision,
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares shall be
proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock
split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then, after the record date for
effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to
such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant
Shares shall be proportionately decreased.
(b) Consolidation, Merger or Sale. In case the Company after the
date hereof (a) shall consolidate with or merge into any other entity and shall
not be the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger,
(b) shall permit any other entity to consolidate with or merge into the Company
and the Company shall be the continuing or surviving entity but, in connection
with such consolidation or merger, the Common Stock shall be changed into or
exchanged for stock or other securities of any other entity or cash or any other
property, (c) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties or
assets to any other person or entity, or (d) shall effect a capital
reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a capital
reorganization or reclassification for which adjustment in the Exercise Price is
provided in Section 4(a)), then, and in the case of each such transaction,
proper provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the
manner provided in this Warrant, the holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise
hereof at any time after the consummation of such transaction, shall be entitled
to receive (at the aggregate Exercise Price in effect
A-2
at the time of such consummation for all Common Stock issuable upon such
exercise immediately prior to such consummation), in lieu of the Common Stock
issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to such consummation, the highest
amount of securities, cash or other property to which such holder would have
been entitled as a shareholder upon such consummation if such holder had
exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, subject to adjustments
(subsequent to such consummation) as nearly equivalent as possible to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 4. The Company shall not effect any
such consolidation, merger, or sale of assets, or capital reorganization or
reclassification unless prior to the consummation thereof, the continuing or
surviving corporation (if other than the Company) assumes by written instrument
the obligations under this Section 4 and the obligations to deliver to the
holder of this Warrant such securities, cash or other property as, in accordance
with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be entitled to acquire.
(c) Distribution of Assets. In case the Company shall declare or
make any distribution of its assets to holders of Common Stock as a partial
liquidating dividend, by way of return of capital or otherwise, other than a
dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or in cash out of earnings of the
Company, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled upon exercise of this
Warrant to receive the amount of cash, securities or other property that would
have been payable to the holder had such holder been the holder of such shares
of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders
entitled to such distribution.
(d) Notice of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of any event that
requires any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Company shall give notice
thereof to the holder of this Warrant, which notice shall state the Exercise
Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in
the number of Warrant Shares, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of
calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.
(e) Adjustment of Exercise Price. No adjustment of the Exercise
Price shall be made in an amount less than 1% of the Exercise Price in effect at
the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made, but any such lesser
adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together
with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments so
carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such Exercise Price. In the
event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein results in a
fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up to the nearest cent.
(f) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall
be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall pay a cash
adjustment in respect of any fractional share that would otherwise be issuable
in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price of a share of Common
Stock on the date of such exercise.
(g) Other Notices. In case at any time:
(i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon the Common
Stock payable in shares of stock of any class or make any other distribution
(other than dividends or distributions payable in cash out of retained earnings)
to the holders of the Common Stock;
(ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the
holders of the Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other
rights;
(iii) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company,
or reclassification of the Common Stock, or consolidation or merger of the
Company with or into, or sale of all or substantially all its assets to, another
entity; or
A-3
(iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company;
then, in each such case, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant
notice of (a) the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record
shall be taken for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive
any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, or for determining the
holders of Common Stock entitled to vote in respect of any such transaction, and
(b) the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable approximation thereof by the
Company) when such transaction shall occur. Such notice shall also specify the
date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such
dividend, distribution or subscription rights or to exchange their Common Stock
for stock or other securities or property deliverable upon consummation of such
transaction. Such notice shall be given at least 30 days prior to the record
date or the date on which the Company's books are closed in respect thereto.
Failure to give any such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the
validity of any action referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.
(h) Certain Events. In case any event shall occur as to which
paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 4 are not strictly applicable but the
failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the rights represented
by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent of such provisions, the
Company shall give notice of such event as provided in Section 4(d) and shall
make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant
Shares to preserve, without dilution, the rights represented by this Warrant.
5. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this
Warrant or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof;
provided that the holder shall pay all transfer taxes owed upon the issuance of
such shares in the name of any person or entity designed by the holder.
6. No Rights as a Stockholder. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant,
the holder hereof, as such, shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder
of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to consent, to
exercise any preemptive right, to receive any notice of meetings of stockholders
for the election of directors of the Company or any other matter or to receive
any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as may be specifically
provided for herein.
7. Transfer, Exchange, and Replacement of Warrant.
(a) Restriction on Transfer. Neither this Warrant (including any
replacement Warrant) nor any Warrant Shares may be sold, transferred or
otherwise disposed of prior to the first anniversary of the initial date of
issuance of this Warrant, without the prior written consent of the Company,
except for (i) the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with its terms, (ii)
pledges to bona fide financial institutions to secure the repayment of
indebtedness and (iii) in case of natural persons, transfers to immediate family
members or a trust or trusts for the benefit of such family members for estate
planning purposes. The holder of this Warrant and each such permitted transferee
shall (i) be bound by the transfer restrictions contained herein and (ii)
execute, prior to any transfer, such documents as the Company may reasonably
request to evidence and affirm their obligations hereunder. The Warrant Shares
shall be issued with a restrictive legend setting forth the above restrictions
on transfer.
(b) Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt 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, upon
delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to
the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, shall execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
A-4
(c) Cancellation; Payment of Expenses. Upon the surrender of this
Warrant in connection with any transfer or replacement as provided in this
Section 7, this Warrant shall be promptly canceled by the Company. The Company
shall pay all taxes and all other expenses (other than legal expenses, if any,
incurred by the holder or transferees) and charges payable in connection with
the preparation, execution, and delivery of Warrants pursuant to this Section 7.
(d) Register. The Company shall maintain, at its principal executive
offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by
notice to the holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company
shall record the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has
been issued, as well as the name and address of each transferee and each prior
owner of this Warrant.
(e) Exercise or Transfer Without Registration. If, at the time of
the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any exercise or transfer of
this Warrant, this Warrant (or, in the case of any exercise, the Warrant
Shares), shall not be registered under the Securities Act and under applicable
state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of
allowing such exercise or transfer, that the holder or transferee of this
Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of
counsel, which opinion and counsel are acceptable to the Company, to the effect
that such exercise or transfer may be made without registration under the
Securities Act and applicable state securities or blue sky laws.

permitted to be given or delivered hereunder to the holder of this Warrant shall
