The person or persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing the shares of Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant 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 shares of Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within twenty (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 exercised shall also be issued to the Holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within such twenty-day period.
4. 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.
2
5. 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 any subsection of this Section 5 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 Warrant Shares 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 or the surviving entity shall deliver such new warrant as soon as possible and in any event within twenty (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 5. The provisions of this subparagraph (a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or changes.
(b) Share 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 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 Warrant Shares 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) Share Dividends and Other Distributions. If the Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall (i) pay a dividend with respect to Warrant Shares payable in Warrant Shares, then (A) the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of shareholders 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 (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Warrant Shares outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Warrant Shares outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution and (B) the number of shares of Warrant Shares 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 Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder immediately prior to such Record Date by a fraction (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Warrant Shares outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution, and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Warrant Shares outstanding immediately prior to
3
such dividend or distribution; or (ii) make any other distribution with respect to Warrant Shares (except any distribution specifically provided for in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) hereof), then, in each such case, provision shall to this Warrant be made by the Company such that the Holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant (in addition to the number of shares of stock receivable upon exercise of this Warrant) a proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution (without payment of any additional consideration therefor) as though it were the holder of all shares of Warrant Shares remaining issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as of the Record Date fixed for the determination of the shareholders of the Company entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. The provisions of this subparagraph (c) shall similarly apply to successive stock dividends and other distributions by the Company.
(d) Issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares. In the event that the Company shall at any time make an issuance of Additional Ordinary Shares (as such term is defined in the Company’s Memorandum of Association, as may be amended from time to time, the “Memorandum of Association”) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the per share conversion price of the Warrant Shares in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, then the price at which the Warrant Shares may be converted into Ordinary Shares shall be subject to the same adjustment as set forth in the then current Memorandum of Association.
6. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Exercise Price or the number of shares of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Company shall issue a certificate signed by its Chief Executive Officer, or such other executive officer of the Company as the Chief Executive Officer may designate, 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 Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant within five (5) days after the occurrence of the event resulting in such adjustment at such Holder’s last known address in accordance with Section 14 hereof.
7. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall pay the Holder in cash or by check the amount determined by multiplying such fractional share by the fair market value of one share of Warrant Shares as determined in accordance with Section 11(c) hereof.
8. 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, and the shares of Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired for investment and that such holder will not offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, or any such shares except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and any applicable state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, unless the 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 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 shares of Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant (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, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE ISSUER OF THESE SHARES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”
4
Said 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 8(c) hereof, which provisions are intended to ensure compliance with applicable federal and states securities laws, this Warrant and the shares of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be transferred by the Holder hereof, in whole or in part and from time to time together with the transfer of the Credit Facility entered into in connection herewith to the extent any amount under such Credit Facility remains outstanding.
(c) Method of Transfer. With respect to any offer, sale, transfer or other disposition of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant prior to registration of such Warrant or shares, the Holder hereof shall prior to such offer, sale, transfer or other disposition:
(i) surrender this Warrant 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 and an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company,
(ii) pay any applicable transfer taxes or establishing 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 duly completed and executed prior to transfer, describing briefly the manner thereof, and
(iv) deliver a written opinion of such Holder’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 this Warrant or the shares of Warrant Shares.
As promptly as practicable and no later than five (5) days after receiving the items set forth above, the Company shall notify the Holder that it may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or such shares, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 8(c) that the opinion of counsel for the Holder or other
5
evidence is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Holder promptly with details of such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Warrant or such underlying Warrant Shares may, as to such federal laws, be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, 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 such 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 for the Holder, 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 twenty (20) days after such transfer.
9. No Rights as Shareholders; Information. No holder of this Warrant, as such, prior to exercise hereof shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of 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 Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.
10. “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Holder, and its successors and assigns, agrees in connection with the Company’s firm commitment underwritten initial public offering of the Company’s securities not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any of the Company’s securities (other than those included in the registration or acquired in a public market transaction) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the underwriters, provided, however, that all officers, directors and five percent (5%) shareholders of the Company agree to a similar restriction. Each Holder, and its successors and assigns, further agrees to enter into a separate agreement providing for the foregoing, as may be required by the underwriters.
11. Right to Convert Warrant into Shares; Non-Cash Net Exercise.
(a) Right to Convert. In addition to and without limiting the rights of the Holder under the terms of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the “Net Exercise Right”) into shares of Warrant Shares as provided in this Section 11 at any time or from time to time during the term of this Warrant. Upon exercise of the Net Exercise Right with respect to a particular number of shares of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant (the “Converted Warrant Shares”), the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any exercise price or any cash or other consideration) (X) that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Warrant Shares equal to the (Y) Converted Warrant Shares multiplied by the quotient obtained by dividing the result of (B) fair market value of one share of Warrant Shares less (A) the Warrant Exercise Price per share by (B) the fair market value of one share of Warrant Shares all on the Conversion Date (as herein defined).
6
Expressed as a formula such conversion shall be computed as follows:
Where: | X | = | the number of shares of Warrant Shares that maybe issued to holder | |||||
Y | = | the number of shares of Warrant Shares that are being surrendered pursuant to this Net Exercise Right (i.e., the Converted Warrant Shares) | ||||||
A | = | the Warrant Exercise Price per share | ||||||
B | = | the fair market value of one share of Warrant Shares |
No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Net Exercise Right, and, if the number of shares of Warrant Shares issued or to be issued determined in accordance with the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting fractional share on the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Section 11, shares issued pursuant to the Net Exercise Right shall be treated as if they were issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(b) Method of Exercise. The Net Exercise Right may be exercised by the Holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the notice of exercise substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly completed and executed, specifying that the Holder thereby intends to exercise the Net Exercise Right and indicating the number of shares subject to this Warrant which are being surrendered (referred to in Section 11(a) hereof as the Converted Warrant Shares) in exercise of the Net Exercise Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement, or on such later date as is specified therein (the “Conversion Date”).
(c) Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 11, “fair market value” of one share of Warrant Shares as of a particular date shall be deemed to be the price per share which the Company could obtain from a willing third-party buyer (not an existing shareholder, director or employee) for the Company’s authorized but unissued shares, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
12. Certain Definitions. As used in this Warrant, “Change of Control” shall mean sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or a merger or reorganization of the Company with or into any other corporation or corporations, in which transaction the Company’s shareholders immediately prior to such transaction own immediately after such transaction less than fifty percent (50%) of the equity securities of the surviving corporation or its parent, provided, however, that an equity financing with the principal purpose of raising capital shall not be deemed a Change of Control.
13. 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 approved by a duly authorized officer of the Company and
7
the Holder. Any waiver or amendment effected in accordance with this Section 13 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.
14. 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, request, communications or other documents shall be deemed to have been received by the recipient (i) in the case of personal delivery, on the date of such delivery, (ii) in the case of delivery by a nationally recognized courier service, on the next business day subsequent to deposit with the courier and (iii) in the case of mailing, on the fourth business day following the date of deposit in the United States mails, first-class postage prepaid.
15. Lost Warrants or Share 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.
16. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the several paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Warrant. The language in this Warrant shall be construed as to its fair meaning without regard to which party drafted this Warrant.
17. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the laws of the State of California, without reference to principles governing choice or conflicts of laws.
18. No Impairment. The Company will not, by an voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of this Warrant against impairment, subject to amendment of this Warrant by approval of the Company and the Holder.
19. Issue Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all issue and other taxes payable in respect of any issue or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant that may be imposed under the laws of the United States of America or by any state, political subdivision or taxing authority of the United States of America; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of any Warrant or certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of such Warrant, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person or entity requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
8
20. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Warrant shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision(s) shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Warrant and such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant, which shall remain in full force and effect.
21. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
22. Attorneys’ Fees. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Warrant, the prevailing party in such dispute shall be entitled to collect its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.
22. Company Information. The Company shall deliver to Holder (so long as Holder holds all or any portion of the Warrant or all of the Warrant Shares upon exercise thereunder) all of the financial information required to be delivered by the Company to any Major Shareholder (as such term is defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated Members Agreement dated June 30, 2006, as may be amended from time to time, the “Members Agreement”). The Company’s obligations under this Section 22 shall terminate on and be of no further force or effect upon the earliest to occur of (i) the closing of the first underwritten public offering in connection with the listing of any of the securities of the Company on a stock exchange, (ii) the date the Company first becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (iii) a Change of Control.
23. Registration Rights. Holder shall be entitled to all of the rights and subject to all of the obligations set forth in Section 2 of the Members Agreement, on the terms and conditions set forth therein, as if such terms and conditions were set forth in this Warrant. Simultaneously with the exercise of this Warrant, Holder shall execute a counterpart signature page to such Members Agreement, which document shall add Holder as a party thereto (with respect to Section 2 thereof only) and give Holder all registration rights as and to the extent provided in Section 2 thereof.
