is
entitled to subscribe for and purchase from Xxxx’x, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”),
up to
and including the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock,
par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common
Stock”)
of the
Company set forth above, at the exercise price of $7.50 per share ( the
“Warrant
Exercise Price”)
(and
as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 3 hereof), at any time or
from
time to time from the date first set forth above (the “Issue
Date”)
and
prior to or upon June 15, 2012 (the “Expiration
Date”),
subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth:
1. Method
of Exercise; Cash Payment; Issuance of New Warrant.
Subject
to the provisions of this Warrant, the purchase right represented by this
Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof, in whole or in part and from
time
to time, at the election of the Holder hereof, by the surrender of this Warrant
(with the notice of exercise substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A
duly
completed and executed) at the principal executive offices of the Company and
accompanied by payment to the Company, by (a) certified or bank check acceptable
to the Company, (b) cancellation by the Holder of indebtedness of the Company
to
the Holder, if agreed to in advance in writing by the Company in the Company’s
sole and absolute discretion, or (c) by wire transfer to an account designated
by the Company, or any combination of (a), (b) and (c), of an amount equal
to
the then applicable Warrant Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant
Shares then being purchased; or
The
person or persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing the shares
of
the Company’s capital stock to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant (the
“Warrant
Shares”)
shall
be deemed to have become the holder(s) of record of, and shall be treated for
all purposes as the record holder(s) of, the shares represented thereby (and
such shares shall be deemed to have been issued) immediately prior to the close
of business on the date or dates upon which this Warrant is exercised. In the
event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates
for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder hereof
as
soon as possible and in any event within 20 days after such exercise and, unless
this Warrant has been fully exercised or expired, a new warrant having the
same
terms as this Warrant and representing the remaining portion of such shares,
if
any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have
been
-1-
exercised
shall also be issued to the Holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event
within such 20-day period.
2. Reservation
of Shares.
During
the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised,
the Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose
of
the issuance upon exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant
a
sufficient number of shares of its capital stock to provide for the exercise
of
the rights represented by this Warrant.
3. Adjustment
of Warrant Exercise Price and Number of Shares.
The
number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant
and
the Warrant Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment to the nearest whole
share (one-half and greater being rounded upward) and nearest cent (one-half
cent and greater being rounded upward) from time to time upon the occurrence
of
certain events, as follows. Each of the adjustments provided by the
subsections below shall be deemed separate adjustments and any adjustment
of this Warrant pursuant to one subsection of this Section 3 shall preclude
additional adjustments for the same event or transaction by the remaining
subsections.
(a) Reclassification.
In case
of any reclassification or change of securities of the class issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value
to
no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision
or combination) into the same or a different number or class of securities,
the
Company shall duly execute and deliver to the Holder of this Warrant a new
warrant (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder of this
Warrant), so that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to
receive upon exercise of this Warrant, at a total purchase price not to exceed
that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant,
and
in lieu of the shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of
this
Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and
property receivable upon such reclassification or change by a holder of the
number of shares then purchasable under this Warrant. The Company shall deliver
such new warrant as soon as possible and in any event within 20 days after
such
reclassification or change. Such new warrant shall provide for adjustments
that
shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided
for in this Section 3. The provisions of this subparagraph (a) shall similarly
apply to successive reclassifications or changes.
(b) Stock
Splits or Combination of Shares.
If the
Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall
subdivide (by stock split) or combine (by reverse stock split) its outstanding
shares of capital stock of the class into which this Warrant is exercisable,
the
Warrant Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a
subdivision or increased in the case of a combination, effective at the close
of
business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective and the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be
proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or decreased in the
case
of a combination, and in each case to the nearest whole share, effective at
the
close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
The provisions of this subparagraph (b) shall similarly apply to successive
subdivisions or combinations of outstanding shares of capital stock into which
this Warrant is exercisable.
(c) Common
Stock Dividends.
If the
Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall pay
a
dividend with respect to Common Stock payable in Common Stock, then (i) the
Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution
(the “Record
Date”),
to
that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator
of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator
of
which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such dividend or distribution and (ii) the number of shares
of
-2-
Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted,
to the nearest whole share, from and after the Record Date by multiplying the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder immediately prior to
such
Record Date by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or
distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or
distribution. The provisions of this subparagraph (c) shall similarly apply
to
successive Common Stock dividends by the Company.
4. Notice
of Adjustments.
Whenever the Warrant Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 3 above, the Company
shall deliver a written notice, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event
requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which
such
adjustment was calculated, and the Warrant Exercise Price and the number of
shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such
adjustment, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause copies of
such notice to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant within twenty (20)
days after the occurrence of the event resulting in such adjustment at such
Holder’s last known address in accordance with Section 10 hereof.
5. Fractional
Shares.
No
fractional shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder,
but
in lieu of such fractional shares, the number of shares of Common Stock to
be
issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
6. Compliance
with Securities Act of 1933; Transfer of Warrant or Shares.
(a) Compliance
with Securities Act of 1933.
The
Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, the
Warrant Shares and the capital stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant
Shares (collectively, the “Securities”)
are
being acquired for investment and that such holder will not offer, sell,
transfer or otherwise dispose of the Securities except under circumstances
which
will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities
Act”)
and
any applicable state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, unless
the
Warrant Shares being acquired are registered under the Securities Act and any
applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is
available, the Holder hereof shall confirm in writing that the Warrant Shares
so
purchased are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward
distribution or resale in violation of the Securities Act and shall confirm
such
other matters related thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Company.
The
Warrant Shares (unless registered under the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities laws) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in
substantially the following form:
THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT
OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”).
THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE
OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR
AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS
NOT
REQUIRED.
Such
legend shall be removed by the Company, upon the request of a Holder, at such
time as the restrictions on the transfer of the applicable security shall have
terminated.
(b) Transferability
of the Warrant.
Subject
to compliance with Section 6(c) below, which provisions are intended to ensure
compliance with applicable federal and states securities laws, the Securities
may be transferred by the Holder hereof, in whole or in part and from time
to
time.
-3-
(c) Method
of Transfer.
With
respect to any offer, sale, transfer or other disposition of the Securities,
the
Holder hereof shall prior to such offer, sale, transfer or other
disposition:
(i) surrender
this Warrant or certificate representing Warrant Shares at the principal
executive offices of the Company or provide evidence reasonably satisfactory
to
the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant or certificate
representing Warrant Shares and an indemnity agreement reasonable satisfactory
to the Company,
(ii) pay
any
applicable transfer taxes or establish
to the satisfaction of the Company that such taxes have been paid,
(iii) deliver
a
written assignment to the Company in substantially the form attached hereto
as
Exhibit
B
or
appropriate stock power duly completed and executed prior to transfer,
describing briefly the manner thereof, and
(iv) deliver
a
written opinion of such Xxxxxx’s counsel, or other evidence, if reasonably
requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale, transfer or
other
disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the
Securities Act as then in effect and any applicable state securities law then
in
effect) of the Securities.
As
soon
as reasonably practicable after receiving the items set forth above, the Company
shall notify the Holder that it may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of
the
Securities, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the
Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 6(c) that
the
opinion of counsel for the Holder or other evidence is not reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Holder promptly
with details of such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Securities may, as to such federal laws, be offered, sold or otherwise disposed
of in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act if the Company satisfied
the provisions thereof and provided that the Holder shall furnish such
information as the Company may reasonably request to provide a reasonable
assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate
representing this Warrant or Warrant Shares thus transferred (except a transfer
pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective registration statement) shall bear a legend
as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, unless in the
aforesaid opinion of counsel to the Holder and to the reasonable satisfaction
of
the Company, such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with
such
laws. Upon
any
partial transfer of this Warrant, the Company will issue and deliver to such
new
holder a new
warrant (in form and substance similar to this Warrant) with
respect to the portion transferred and will issue and deliver to the Holder
a
new
warrant (in form and substance similar to this Warrant) with
respect to the portion not transferred as
soon
as possible and in any event within 20 days after such transfer.
7. No
Rights as Shareholders; Information.
Prior
to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant, as such, shall not
be
entitled to vote the Warrant Shares or receive dividends on or be deemed the
holder of such shares, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to
confer upon the Holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a
shareholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors
or
upon any matter submitted to shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to receive
notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise
until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided
herein.
8. Call
Option.
At any
time that the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock shall equal or exceed
$10.00 per share (and as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 3
hereof) for a period of ten
-4-
consecutive
trading days, and provided that a registration statement covering the Warrant
Shares is available for the resale of the related Warrant Shares during such
ten
trading day period, the Company shall have the right, upon twenty days written
notice to the Holders, to call the Warrants for cancellation in whole. Unless
on
or prior to the expiration of such twenty day period, a Holder exercises its
right to purchase any of the Warrant Shares covered by the Warrant pursuant
to
the terms of this Warrant, such Holder shall forfeit its right to do so, and
the
Warrants not so exercised shall automatically expire without any consideration
to the Holder or any further action by the Holder or the Company and the
Warrants shall be canceled on the books and records of the Company.
For
purposes of this Section 8, the “Closing
Sale Price”
of
one
share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the “Determination
Date”)
shall
be the average of the closing price quoted on any national securities exchange
on which such securities are listed or the closing sale prices of the Common
Stock quoted in the Over-The-Counter Market Summary, whichever is applicable,
for the five consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Determination
Date (or, if no sales take place on any such trading day, the average of the
closing bid and asked prices on such trading day).
9. Modification
and Waiver; Effect of Amendment or Waiver.
This
Warrant and any provision hereof may be modified, amended, waived, discharged
or
terminated only by an instrument in writing, designated as an amendment to
this
Warrant and executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company and the Holder
of this Warrant. Any waiver or amendment effected in accordance with this
Section 9 shall be binding upon the Holder, each future holder of this Warrant
or of any shares purchased under this Warrant (including securities into which
such shares have been converted) and the Company.
10. Notices.
Any
notice, request, communication or other document required or permitted to be
given or delivered to the Holder hereof or the Company shall be delivered by
personal delivery, or shall be sent by certified United States mail, first-class
postage prepaid or by overnight delivery using a nationally recognized courier
service, to each such holder at its address as shown on the books of the Company
or to the Company at the address indicated on the signature page of this
Warrant. All such notices, requests, communications or other documents shall

substantially all of the assets of the Company. Upon such event, the successor
entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant (or any
substitute warrant as provided hereinbefore) shall be exercisable for the
securities, cash and property of the successor entity on the terms provided
herein.
12. Lost
Warrants or Stock Certificates.
Upon
receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate and, in
the
case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity
agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or in the case of any such
mutilation upon surrender and cancellation of such mutilated Warrant or stock
certificate, the Company will issue and deliver a new warrant (containing the
same terms as this Warrant) or stock certificate, in lieu of the lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Warrant or stock certificate.
13. Descriptive
Headings.
The
descriptive headings of the several paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted
for

in
