COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase __________ Shares of Common Stock of
XXXXXX EQUIPMENT, INC.
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the "Warrant") certifies
that, for value received, _____________ (the "Holder"), is entitled, upon the
terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter
set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the "Initial Exercise Date")
and on or prior to the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the Initial
Exercise Date (the "Termination Date") but not thereafter, to subscribe for and
purchase from Xxxxxx Equipment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), up
to ______ shares (the "Warrant Shares") of Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The purchase price of one share of
Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined
in Section 2(b).
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities
Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), dated April , 2005, among the
Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.
Section 2. Exercise.
a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or times on or
after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date
by delivery to the Company of a duly executed facsimile copy of the
Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto (or such other office or agency
of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the
registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books
of the Company); provided, however, within 5 Trading Days of the date
said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, the Holder shall
have surrendered this Warrant to the Company and the Company shall have
received payment of the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby
purchased by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States
bank.
b) Exercise Price. The exercise price of the Common Stock
under this Warrant shall be $3.75, subject to adjustment hereunder (the
"Exercise Price").
c) Cashless Exercise. If at any time after one year from the
date of issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration
Statement registering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder,
then this Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a
"cashless exercise" in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a
certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the
date of such election;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant by means of a cash exercise rather than a
cashless exercise.
d) Exercise Limitations.
i. Holder's Restrictions. The Holder shall not have the
right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to
Section 2(c) or otherwise, to the extent that after giving
effect to such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together
with the Holder's affiliates), as set forth on the applicable
Notice of Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99%
of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding
immediately after giving effect to such issuance. For purposes
of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates
shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the
determination of such sentence is being made, but shall
exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be
issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised
portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or
any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the
unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of
the Company (including, without limitation, any other
Preferred Stock or Warrants) subject to a limitation on
conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained
herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its
affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for
purposes of this Section 2(d), beneficial ownership shall be
calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act, it being acknowledged by Holder that the Company is not
2
representing to Holder that such calculation is in compliance
with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Holder is solely
responsible for any schedules required to be filed in
accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation
contained in this Section 2(d) applies, the determination of
whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other
securities owned by the Holder) and of which a portion of this
Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of such
Xxxxxx, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be
deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this
Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned
by such Holder) and of which portion of this Warrant is
exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage
limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify
or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of
this Section 2(d), in determining the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the
Company's most recent Form 10-QSB or Form 10-KSB, as the case
may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company
or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company's
Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of the
Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm
orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of
Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after
giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of
the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its
affiliates since the date as of which such number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The
provisions of this Section 2(d) may be waived by the Holder
upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days'
prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of this
Section 2(d) shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or
such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be
specified in such notice of waiver).
ii. Trading Market Restrictions. If the Company has not
obtained Shareholder Approval (as defined below) if required,
then the Company may not issue upon exercise of this Warrant
in the aggregate, in excess of 19.999% of the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding on the Trading Day immediately
preceding the Closing Date, less any shares of Common Stock
issued upon conversion of or as payment of dividends on the
Preferred Stock or upon prior exercise of this or any other
Warrant issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (such number
of shares, the "Issuable Maximum"). If on any attempted
exercise of this Warrant, the issuance of Warrant Shares would
exceed the Issuable Maximum and the Company shall not have
previously obtained the vote of shareholders (the "Shareholder
Approval"), if any, as may be required by the applicable rules
and regulations of the Trading Market (or any successor
entity) to approve the issuance of shares of Common Stock in
excess of the Issuable Maximum pursuant to the terms hereof,
then the Company shall issue to the Holder requesting a
Warrant exercise such number of Warrant Shares as may be
issued below the Issuable Maximum and, with respect to the
remainder of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares, this
Warrant shall not be exercisable until and unless Shareholder
Approval has been obtained.
3
e) Mechanics of Exercise.
i. Authorization of Warrant Shares. The Company
covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the
exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant
will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in
respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of
any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue). The
Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is
outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued
Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the
issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any
purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further
covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute
full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty
of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the
necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The
Company will take all such reasonable action as may be
necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as
provided herein without violation of any applicable law or
regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon
which the Common Stock may be listed.
ii. Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise.
Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be
transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Holder
by crediting the account of the Holder's prime broker with the
Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent
Commission ("DWAC") system if the Company is a participant in
such system, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address
specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise within 3
Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of
Exercise Form, surrender of this Warrant and payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above ("Warrant Share
Delivery Date"). This Warrant shall be deemed to have been
exercised on the date the Exercise Price is received by the
Company. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been
issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be
named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of
record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the
Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the
Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by the
Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(e)(vii) prior to the
issuance of such shares, have been paid.
iii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this
Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall,
at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates
representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant
evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased
Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant
shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
4
iv. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause
its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to this
Section 2(e)(iv) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the
Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
v. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver
Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights
available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause its
transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an
exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if
after such date the Holder is required by its broker to
purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares
of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the
Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such exercise (a "Buy-In"), then the Company
shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x)
the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage
commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so
purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A)
the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to
deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue
times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to
such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option
of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and
equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise
was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares
of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company
timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations
hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock
having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In
with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common
Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such
purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the
immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required
to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company
written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in
respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations
and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company.
Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue any
other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific
performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the
Company's failure to timely deliver certificates representing
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as
required pursuant to the terms hereof.
5
vi. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares
or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon
the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share
which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such
exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect
of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction
multiplied by the Exercise Price.
vii. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of
certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge
to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other
incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such
certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by
the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name
of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by
the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates
for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the
name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise
shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto
duly executed by the Holder; and the Company may require, as a
condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to
reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
viii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its
stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the
timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 3. Certain Adjustments.
a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or
otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common
Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in
shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not
include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to
this Warrant), (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
larger number of shares, (C) combines (including by way of reverse
stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number
of shares, or (D) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common
Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the
Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury
shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the
denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
after such event and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made
pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after
the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective
immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
combination or re-classification.
6
b) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time prior
to the Termination Date, shall distribute to all holders of Common
Stock (and not to Holders of the Warrants) evidences of its
indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase any security other than the Common Stock, then in each such
case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by
a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of
the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be
such VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value
at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of
indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the
Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In
either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided
to the Holders of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so
distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of
Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such
distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the
record date mentioned above.
c) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall
be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the
case may be. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any
given time shall not includes shares of Common Stock owned or held by
or for the account of the Company, and the description of any such
shares of Common Stock shall be considered on issue or sale of Common
Stock. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common
Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be
the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury
shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
d) Notice to Holders.
i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise
Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section 3, the Company
shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the
Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Xxxxxx. If (A) the
Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution)
on the Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special
nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common
Stock; (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all
holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of
any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of the
Company shall be required in connection with any
reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or
merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of
any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is
converted into other securities, cash or property; (E) the
Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the
Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be
mailed to the Holder at its last addresses as it shall appear
upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 10 calendar
days prior to the applicable record or effective date
hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which
a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record
is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the
Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend,
distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be
determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is
expected to become effective or close, and the date as of
which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of
record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the
Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale, transfer or share exchange; provided, that the failure
to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing
thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action
required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is
entitled to exercise this Warrant during the 10-day period
commencing the date of such notice to the effective date of
the event triggering such notice.
7
e) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant
is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of
the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company effects any
sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of
related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether
by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which
holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their
shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company
effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory
share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively
converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in
any such case, a "Fundamental Transaction"), then, upon any subsequent
conversion of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive,
for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise
absent such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder, (a)
upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of
the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the
surviving corporation, and Alternate Consideration receivable upon or
as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such event or (b) cash equal to the value of this
Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes option
pricing formula (the "Alternate Consideration"). For purposes of any
such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be
appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based
on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one
share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company
shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in
a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different
components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock
are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be
received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given
the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any
exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. To the
extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor
to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction
shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing
provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to exercise such warrant
into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to
which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms
requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the
provisions of this paragraph (f) and insuring that this Warrant (or any
such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any
subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
8
f) Exempt Issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
adjustments, Alternate Consideration nor notices shall be made, paid or
issued under this Section 3 in respect of an Exempt Issuance.
g) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. The Company may at any
time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise
Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by
the Board of Directors of the Company.
Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.
a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable
securities laws and the conditions set forth in Sections 5(a) and 4(d)
hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement,
this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in
part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the
Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant
substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder
or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes
payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if
required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the
denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of
assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing
the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall
promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be
exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without
having a new Warrant issued.
b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with
other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the
Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and
denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the
Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section
4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or
combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or
combined in accordance with such notice.
c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant,
upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the
"Warrant Register"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time
to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this
Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise
hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes,
absent actual notice to the contrary.
9
d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of
this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the
transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under
applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require,
as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or
transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company
a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance
and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions)
to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under
the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky
laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the
Company an investment letter in form and substance acceptable to the
Company and (iii) that the transferee be an "accredited investor" as
defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7), or (a)(8)
promulgated under the Securities Act or a qualified institutional buyer
as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject
to compliance with applicable laws and Section 4 of this Warrant, this
Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part,
at the office or agency of the Company by the Holder in person or by
duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant together with
the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed. The transferee
shall sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Company.
b) No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does
not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a
shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the
surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise
Price (or by means of a cashless exercise), the Warrant Shares so
purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the
record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of
the date of such surrender or payment.
c) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The
Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the
Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity
or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the
Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender
and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated,
the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of
like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant
or stock certificate.
d) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed
day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right
required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal
holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised
on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
10
e) Authorized Shares.
The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is
outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the
Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this
Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this
Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged
with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the
necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the
purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such
reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant
Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any
applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading
Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the
Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without
limitation, amending 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 of this
Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be
necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth
in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any
Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise
immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares
upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from
any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be
necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this
Warrant.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment
in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable
or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such
authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be
necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction
thereof.
f) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction,
validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
g) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant
Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered,
will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal
securities laws.
11
h) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay
or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall
operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Xxxxxx's
rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights
hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully
and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which
results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to
Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and
expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees,
including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in
collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing
any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
i) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or
permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall
be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase
Agreement.
j) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the
absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or
purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or
privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for
the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the
Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by
creditors of the Company.
k) Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise
all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be
entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The
Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation
for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of
this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for
specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
l) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities
laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the
Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The
provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all
