countersignature by the Warrant Agent and issue and delivery thereof, such
Warrant Certificates, nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Warrant Agent,
issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though the person who
signed such Warrant Certificates had not ceased to be such officer of the
Company.
SECTION 4. Exercise.
(a) Warrants may be exercised commencing at any time
on or after the Initial Warrant Exercise Date, but not after the Warrant
Expiration Date, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein
(including the provisions set forth in Sections 5 and 9 hereof) and in the
applicable Warrant Certificate. A Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised
immediately prior to the close of business on the Exercise Date, provided that
the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrant, with the exercise form
thereon duly executed by the Registered Holder thereof with such Registered
Holder's signature guaranteed, together with payment in cash or by bank or
cashier's check made payable to the order of the Company, of an amount in lawful
money of the United States of America equal to the applicable Purchase Price has
been received in good funds by the Warrant Agent. The person entitled to receive
the securities deliverable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes
as the holder of such securities as of the close of business on the Exercise
Date. As soon as practicable on or after the Exercise Date and in any event
within five business days after such date, the Warrant Agent on behalf of the
Company shall cause to be issued to the person or persons entitled to receive
the same a Common Stock certificate or certificates for the shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon such exercise, and the Warrant Agent shall deliver the
same to the person or persons entitled thereto. Upon the exercise of Warrants,
the Warrant Agent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of such fact and
of the number of securities delivered upon such exercise and, subject to
subsection (b) below, shall cause all payments of an amount in cash or by check
made payable to the order of the Company, equal to the Purchase Price, to be
deposited promptly in the Company's bank account.
6
(b) At any time upon the exercise of Warrants after
one year and one day from the date hereof, (i) the Market Price (as hereinafter
defined) of the Company's Common Stock in equal to or greater than the Purchase
Price, (ii) the exercise of the Warrant is solicited by an Underwriter at such
time as such Underwriter is a member of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), (iii) the Warrant is not held in a discretionary
account, (iv) disclosure of the compensation arrangement is made in documents
provided to the holders of the Warrants, and (v) the solicitation of the Warrant
is not in violation of Rule 10b-6 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, then the soliciting Underwriter shall be entitled to receive from the
Company upon exercise of each of the Warrants so exercised, a fee of five
percent (5%) of the aggregate price of the Warrants so exercised (the "Exercise
Fee"). Within five (5) day after the end of each month, commencing in _____
1997, the Warrant Agent will notify Representative of each Warrant Certificate
which has been properly completed for exercise by holders of Warrants during the
last month. The Warrant Agent will provide Representative with such information,
in connection with the exercise of each Warrant, as Representative shall
reasonably request. The Company hereby authorizes and instructs the Warrant
Agent to deliver to the soliciting Underwriters if known to Warrant Agent, or to
Representative if not so known, the Exercise Fee promptly after receipt by the
Warrant Agent from the Company of a check payable to the order of the
appropriate Underwriter in the amount of the Exercise Fee. The Warrant Agent
shall not issue the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants until receipt and forwarding of such check. In the event that an
Exercise Fee is paid to an Underwriter with respect to a Warrant which was not
properly completed for exercise or in respect of which such Underwriter is not
entitled to an Exercise Fee, such Underwriter will return such Exercise Fee to
the Warrant Agent which shall forthwith return such fee to the Company.
Representative and the Company may at any time after ____ 1997, and during
business hours, examine the records of the Warrant Agent, including its ledger
of original Warrant Certificates returned to the Warrant Agent upon exercise of
Warrants. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the provisions of this
7
Section 4(b) may not be modified, amended or deleted without the prior consent
of Representative.
(c) The Company shall not be obligated to issue any
fractional share interests or fractional warrant interests upon the exercise of
any Warrant or Warrants, nor shall it be obligated to issue scrip or pay cash in
lieu of fractional interests. Any fractional interest shall be eliminated.
(d) Anything in this Section 4 notwithstanding, no
Warrant will be exercisable unless at the time of exercise the Company has filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933 covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of such Warrant and such shares have been so registered or qualified or
deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the
holder of such Warrant.
SECTION 5. Reservation of Shares; Listing; Payment of Taxes; etc.
(a) The Company covenants that it will at all times
reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the
purpose of issuance upon exercise of Warrants, such number of shares of Common
Stock as shall then be issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants.
The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable
upon exercise of the Warrants shall, at the time of delivery thereof, be duly
and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive
or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance
thereof, and that upon issuance such shares shall be listed on each securities
exchange, if any, on which the other shares of outstanding Common Stock of the
Company are then listed.
8
(b) The Company covenants that, so long as any
unexpired Warrants remain outstanding, the Company will file such post-effective
amendments to the registration statement, Form SB-2, Registration No. 333-_____
(the "Registration Statement"), filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933
(the "Act") with respect to the Warrants (or other appropriate registration
statements or post-effective amendment or supplements) as may be necessary to
permit it to deliver to each person exercising a Warrant, a prospectus meeting
the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and otherwise complying
therewith, and will deliver such a prospectus to each such person. To the extent
that during any period it is not reasonably likely that the Warrants will be
exercised, due to market price or otherwise, the Company need not file such a
post-effective amendment during such period. The Company will use its reasonable
efforts to obtain appropriate approvals or registrations under state "blue sky"
securities laws. With respect to any such securities, however, Warrants may not
be exercised by, or shares of Common Stock issued to, any Registered Holder in
any state in which such exercise would be unlawful.
(c) The Company shall pay all documentary, stamp or
similar taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to
the issuance of Warrants, or the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common
Stock upon exercise of the Warrants; provided, however, that if shares of Common
Stock are to be delivered in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder
of the Warrant Certificate representing any Warrant being exercised, then no
such delivery shall be made unless the person requesting the same has paid to
the Warrant Agent the amount of transfer taxes or charges incident thereto, if
any.
(d) The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably
authorized as the Transfer Agent to requisition from time to time certificates
representing shares of Common Stock or other securities required upon exercise
of the Warrants, and the Company will comply with all such requisitions.
9
SECTION 6. Exchange and Registration of Transfer.
(a) Warrant Certificates may be exchanged for other
Warrant Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants or may
be transferred in whole or in part. Warrant Certificates to be so exchanged
shall be surrendered to the Warrant Agent at its Corporate Office, and the
Company shall execute and the Warrant's Agent shall countersign, issue and
deliver in exchange therefor the Warrant Certificate or Certificates which the
Registered Holder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive.
(b) The Warrant Agent shall keep, at such office,
books in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it
shall register Warrant Certificates and the transfer thereof. Upon due
presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant Certificate at such
office, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall issue and deliver
to the transferee or transferees a new Warrant Certificate or Certificates
representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants.
(c) With respect to any Warrant Certificates
presented for registration of transfer, or for exchange or exercise, the
subscription or exercise form, as the case may be, on the reverse thereof shall
be duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of
transfer and subscription, in form satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant
Agent, duly executed by the Registered Holder thereof with such Registered
Holder's signature guaranteed.
(d) A $10 service charge shall be made for any
exchange, registration or transfer of Warrant Certificates. However, the Company
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
(e) All Warrant Certificates surrendered for exercise
or for exchange shall be promptly canceled by the Warrant Agent.
(f) Prior to due presentment for registration or
transfer thereof, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the
10
Registered Holder of any Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner thereof of
each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or
writing thereon made by anyone other than the Company or the Warrant Agent) for
all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
SECTION 7. Loss or Mutilation. Upon receipt by the Company and
the Warrant Agent of evidence satisfactory to them of the ownership of and the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate and (in the
case of loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity satisfactory to them, and (in
case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation thereof, the Company shall
execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver in lieu thereof a
new Warrant Certificate representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants.
Applicants for a substitute Warrant Certificate shall also comply with such
other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable costs and expenses as
the Warrant Agent may impose.
SECTION 8. Adjustment of Purchase Price and reasonable charges
as the Warrant Agent may prescribe.
(a) Except as hereinafter provided, in the event the
Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, sell any
shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the greater of
(i) 85% of the closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported on NASDAQ on
the trading date next preceding such sale (the "Market Price"), or (ii) 85% the
Purchase Price then in effect, or issue any shares of Common Stock as a stock
dividend to the holders of Common Stock, or subdivide or combine the outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares (any such sale,
issuance, subdivision or combination being herein called a "Change of Shares"),
then, and thereafter immediately before the date of such sale or the record date
for each Change of Shares, the Purchase Price for the Warrants (whether or not
the same shall be issued and outstanding) in effect immediately prior to such
Change of Shares shall be changed to a price (including any applicable fraction
of a cent to the nearest cent) determined by dividing (1) the product of (a) the
Purchase Price in effect immediately before such Change of Shares and (b) the
11
sum (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to such Change of Shares, and (ii) the number of shares determined by dividing
(A) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such sale,
issuance, subdivision or combination, by (B) the lesser of (x) the Market Price,
and (y) the Purchase Price, in effect immediately prior to such Change of
Shares; by (2) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such Change of Shares.
(b) For the purposes of any adjustment to be made in
accordance with this Section 8(a) the following provisions shall be applicable:
(A) In case of the issuance or sale of
shares of Common Stock (or of other securities deemed hereunder to
involve the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock) for a
consideration part or all of which shall be cash, the amount of the
cash portion of the consideration therefor deemed to have been received
by the Company shall be (i) the subscription price (before deducting
any commissions or any expenses incurred in connection therewith), if
shares of Common Stock are offered by the Company for subscription, or
(ii) the public offering price (before deducting therefrom any
compensation paid or discount allowed in the sale, underwriting or
purchase thereof by underwriters or dealers or others performing
similar services, or any expenses incurred in connection therewith), if
such securities are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering
without a subscription offering, or (iii) the gross amount of cash
actually received by the Company for such securities, in any other
case.
(B) In case of the issuance or sale
(otherwise than as a dividend or other distribution on any stock of the
Company, and otherwise than on the exercise of options, rights or
warrants or the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable
securities) of shares of Common Stock (or of other securities deemed
hereunder to involve the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock)
for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the
12
amount of the consideration therefor other than cash deemed to have
been received by the Company shall be the value of such consideration
as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(C) Shares of Common Stock issuable by way
of dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company shall be
deemed to have been issued immediately after the opening of business on
the day following the record date for the determination of shareholders
entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution and shall be
deemed to have been issued without consideration.
(D) The reclassification of securities of
the Company other than shares of Common Stock into securities including
shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to involve the issuance of such
shares of Common Stock for a consideration other than cash immediately
prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination
of security holders entitled to receive such shares, and the value of
the consideration allocable to such shares of Common Stock shall be
determined as provided in subsection (B) of this Section 8(a).
(E) The number of shares of Common Stock at
any one time outstanding shall be deemed to include the aggregate
maximum number of shares issuable (subject to readjustment upon the
actual issuance thereof) upon the exercise of options, rights or
warrants and upon the conversion or exchange of convertible or
exchangeable securities.
(ii) Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price
pursuant to this Section 8, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be the number derived by multiplying the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable immediately prior to such
adjustment by the Purchase Price in effect prior to such adjustment and dividing
the product so obtained by the applicable adjusted Purchase Price.
(c) In case the Company shall at any time after the date
hereof issue options, rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Common
13
Stock, or issue any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of
Common Stock, for a consideration per share (determined as provided in Section
8(a) and as provided below) less than the greater of (i) 85% of the Market
Price, or (ii) 85% of the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of such options, rights or warrants, or such convertible or
exchangeable securities, or without consideration (including the issuance of any
such securities by wazzu way of dividend or other distribution), the Purchase
Price for the Warrants (whether or not the same shall be issued and outstanding)
in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such options, rights or warrants,
or such convertible or exchangeable securities, as the case may be, shall be
reduced to a price determined by making the computation in accordance with the
provisions of Section 8(a) hereof, provided that:
(A) The aggregate maximum number of shares
of Common Stock, as the case may be, issuable or that may become
issuable under such options, rights or warrants (assuming exercise in
full even if not then currently exercisable or currently exercisable in
full) shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding at the time such
options, rights or warrants were issued, for a consideration equal to
the minimum purchase price per share provided for in such options,
rights or warrants at the time of issuance, plus the consideration, if
any, received by the Company for such options, rights or warrants;
provided, however, that upon the expiration or other termination of
such options, rights or warrants, if any thereof shall not have been
exercised, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and
outstanding pursuant to this subsection (A) (and for the purposes of
subsection (E) of Section 8(a) hereof) shall be reduced by the number
of shares as to which options, warrants and/or rights shall have
expired, and such number of shares shall no longer be deemed to be
issued and outstanding, and the Purchase Price then in effect shall
forthwith be readjusted and thereafter be the price that it would have
been had adjustment been made on the basis of the issuance only of the
shares actually issued plus the shares remaining issuable upon the
14
exercise of those options, rights or warrants as to which the exercise
rights shall not have expired or terminated unexercised.
(B) The aggregate maximum number of shares
of Common Stock issuable or that may become issuable upon conversion or
exchange of any convertible or exchangeable securities (assuming
conversion or exchange in full even if not then currently convertible
or exchangeable in full) shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding
at the time of issuance of such securities, for a consideration equal
to the consideration received by the Company for such securities, plus
the minimum consideration, if any, receivable by the Company upon the
conversion or exchange thereof; provided, however, that upon the
expiration or other termination of the right to convert or exchange
such convertible or exchangeable securities (whether by reason of
redemption or otherwise), the number of shares of Common Stock deemed
to be issued and outstanding pursuant to this subsection (B) (and for
the purposes of subsection (E) of Section 8(a) hereof) shall be reduced
by the number of shares as to which the conversion or exchange rights
shall have expired or terminated unexercised, and such number of shares
shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding, and the
Purchase Price then in effect shall forthwith be readjusted and
thereafter be the price that it would have been had adjustment been
made on the basis of the issuance only of the shares actually issued
plus the shares remaining issuable upon conversion or exchange of those
convertible or exchangeable securities as to which the conversion or
exchange rights shall not have expired or terminated unexercised.
(C) If any change shall occur in the
exercise price per share provided for in any of the options, rights or
warrants referred to in subsection (A) of this Section 8(b), or in the
price per share or ratio at which the securities referred to in
subsection (B) of this Section 8(b) are convertible or exchangeable,
such options, rights or warrants or conversion or exchange rights, as
the case may be, to the extent not theretofore exercised, shall be
15
deemed to have expired or terminated on the date when such price change
became effective in respect of shares not theretofore issued pursuant
to the exercise or conversion or exchange thereof, and the Company
shall be deemed to have issued upon such date new options, rights or
warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities.
(d) In case of any reclassification or change of
outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (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 subdivision or combination), or in case of
any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation
(other than a merger with a subsidiary in which merger the Company is the
continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or
change of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or other capital stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) or in case of any sale or conveyance to
another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, then, as a condition of such reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, the Company, or such
successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall make lawful and
adequate provision whereby the Registered Holder of each Warrant then
outstanding shall have the right thereafter to receive on exercise of such
Warrant the kind and amount of securities and property receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder
of the number of securities issuable upon exercise of such Warrant immediately
prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance and shall forthwith file at the Corporate Office of the Warrant Agent
a statement signed by its President or a Vice President and by its Treasurer or
an Assistant Treasurer or its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary evidencing
such provision. Such provisions shall include provision for adjustments which
shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided
for in Section 8(a) and (b). The above provisions of this Section 8(c) shall
similarly apply to successive reclassifications and changes of shares of Common
Stock and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.
16
(e) Irrespective of any adjustments or changes in the
Purchase Price or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise
of the Warrants, the Warrant Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued
shall, unless the Company shall exercise its option to issue new Warrant
Certificates pursuant to Section 2(e) hereof, continue to express the Purchase
Price per share and the number of shares purchasable thereunder as the Purchase
Price per share and the number of shares purchasable thereunder were expressed
in the Warrant Certificates when the same were originally issued.
(f) After each adjustment of the Purchase Price
pursuant to this Section 8, the Company will promptly prepare a certificate
signed by the Chairman or President, and by the Treasurer or an Assistant
Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, of the Company setting
forth: (i) the Purchase Price as so adjusted, (ii) the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant, after such adjustment,
and (iii) a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment. The
Company will promptly file such certificate with the Warrant Agent and cause a
brief summary thereof to be sent by ordinary first class mail to each Registered
Holder at his last address as it shall appear on the registry books of the
Warrant Agent. No failure to mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the
mailing thereof shall affect the validity thereof except as to the holder to
whom the Company failed to mail such notice, or except as to the holder whose
notice was defective. The affidavit of an officer of the Warrant Agent or the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company that such notice has been
mailed shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts
stated therein.
(g) No adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made
as a result of or in connection with (A) the issuance or sale of the
Underwriter's Warrants or the Securities underlying the Underwriter's Warrants,
(B) the issuance or sale of the securities pursuant to the Initial Public
Offering, including the securities underlying the Securities, (C) the issuance
or sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to options, warrants, stock purchase
agreements and convertible or exchangeable securities outstanding or in effect
on the date hereof, or (D) the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock if the
17
amount of said adjustment shall be less than $.02 for one share of Common Stock,
provided, however, that in such case, any adjustment that would otherwise be
required then to be made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time
of and together with the next subsequent adjustment that shall amount, together
with any adjustment so carried forward, to at least $.02 for one share of Common
Stock. In addition, Registered Holders shall not be entitled to cash dividends
paid by the Company prior to the exercise of any Warrant or Warrants held by
them.
SECTION 9. Redemption.
(a) Commencing on the Initial Warrant Redemption
Date, the Company may, on thirty (30) days prior written notice redeem all the
Redeemable Warrants at $.05 per Redeemable Warrant, provided, however, that
before any such call for redemption of Warrants can take place, the (A) average
closing bid price for the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market as
reported by the NASD Automated Quotation System or (B) the average closing sale
price on the primary exchange on which the Common Stock is traded, if the Common
Stock is traded on a national securities exchange, shall have for thirty (30)
consecutive trading days ending on the 15th day prior to the notice of
redemption exceeded 150% of the Purchase Price (initially $____ per share of
Common Stock) (subject to adjustment in the event of any stock splits or other
similar events as provided in Section 8 hereof). All Redeemable Warrants must be
redeemed if any are redeemed.
(b) In the event the Company exercises its right to
redeem all of the Redeemable Warrants, it shall give or cause to be given notice
to the Registered Holders of the Redeemable Warrants, by mailing to such
Registered Holders a notice of redemption, first class, postage prepaid, within
30 calendar days of the aforementioned thirty (30) consecutive trading days and
not later than the twenty-fifth (25th) day before the date fixed for redemption,
at their last address as shall appear on the records of the Warrant Agent. Any
notice mailed in the manner provided herein shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given whether or not the Registered Holder receives such notice.
At the time of the mailing to the Registered Holders of the Warrants of the
18
notice of redemption, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
Representative a similar notice telephonically and confirmed in writing together
with a list of the Registered Holders (including their respective addresses and
number of Warrants beneficially owned) to whom such notice of redemption has
been or will be given.
(c) The notice of redemption shall specify (i) the
redemption price, (ii) the date fixed for redemption, (iii) the place where the
Warrant Certificate shall be delivered and the redemption price shall be paid,
and (iv) that the right to exercise the Warrant shall terminate at 5:00 p.m.
(New York time) on the business day immediately preceding the date fixed for
redemption. The date fixed for the redemption of the Warrants shall be the
Redemption Date. No failure to mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the
mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for such redemption
except as to a Registered Holder (a) to whom notice was not mailed or (b) whose
notice was defective. An affidavit of the Warrant Agent or the Secretary or
Assistant Secretary of the Company that notice of redemption has been mailed
shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated
therein.
(d) Any right to exercise a Warrant shall terminate
at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the business day immediately preceding the
Redemption Date. The redemption price payable to the Registered Holders shall be
mailed to such persons at their addresses of record.
SECTION 10. Concerning the Warrant Agent.
(a) The Warrant Agent acts hereunder as agent and in
a ministerial capacity for the Company and Representative, and its duties shall
be determined solely by the provisions hereof. The Warrant Agent shall not, by
issuing and delivering Warrant Certificates or by any other act hereunder, be
deemed to make any representations as to the validity or value or authorization
of the Warrant Certificates or the Warrants represented thereby or of any
securities or other property delivered upon exercise of any Warrant or whether
any stock issued upon exercise of any Warrant is fully paid and nonassessable.
19
(b) The Warrant Agent shall not at any time be under
any duty or responsibility to any holder of Warrant Certificates to make or
cause to be made any adjustment of the Purchase Price provided in this
Agreement, or to determine whether any fact exists which may require any such
adjustment, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment, when
made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same. It shall not
(i) be liable for any recital or statement of fact contained herein or for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it in reliance on any Warrant Certificate
or other document or instrument believed by it in good faith to be genuine and
to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties, (ii) be
responsible for any failure on the part of the Company to comply with any of its
covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement or in any Warrant
Certificate, or (iii) be liable for any act or omission in connection with this
Agreement except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(c) The Warrant Agent may at any time consult with
counsel satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company) and shall incur
no liability or responsibility for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it
in good faith in accordance with the opinion or advice of such counsel.
(d) Any notice, statement, instruction, request,
direction, order or demand of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced by an
instrument signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Vice-Chairman or
Secretary (unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically
prescribed). The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for action taken, suffered or
omitted by it in accordance with such notice, statement, instruction, request,
direction, order or demand.
(e) The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent
reasonable compensation for its services hereunder and to reimburse it for its
reasonable expenses hereunder; the Company further agrees to indemnify the
Warrant Agent and save it harmless against any and all losses, expenses and
liabilities, including judgments, costs and counsel fees, for anything done or
omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution of its duties and powers hereunder
20
except losses, expenses and liabilities arising as a result of the Warrant
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(f) The Warrant Agent may resign its duties and be
discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder (except liabilities
arising as a result of the Warrant Agent's own negligence or willful
misconduct), after giving 30 days prior written notice to the Company. At least
15 days prior to the date such resignation is to become effective, the Warrant
Agent shall cause a copy of such notice of resignation to be mailed to the
Registered Holder of each Warrant Certificate at the Company's expense. Upon
such resignation the Company shall appoint in writing a new warrant agent. If
the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after
it has been notified in writing of such resignation by the resigning Warrant
Agent, then the Registered Holder of any Warrant Certificate may apply to any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new warrant agent. Any
new warrant agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be
a bank or trust company having a capital and surplus, as shown by its last
published report to its stockholders, of not less than $10,000,000 or a stock
transfer company doing business in New York, New York. After acceptance in
writing of such appointment by the new warrant agent is received by the Company,
such new warrant agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and
responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as the warrant agent,
without any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed; but if for any reason it
shall be necessary or expedient to execute and deliver any further assurance,
conveyance, act or deed, the same shall be done at the expense of the Company
and shall be legally and validly executed and delivered by the resigning Warrant
Agent. Not later than the effective date of any such appointment the Company
shall file notice thereof with the resigning Warrant Agent and shall forthwith
cause a copy of such notice to be mailed to the Registered Holder of each
Warrant Certificate.
(g) Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent or
any new warrant agent may be converted or merged, any corporation resulting from
any consolidation to which the Warrant Agent or any new warrant agent shall be a
party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of the
21
Warrant Agent or any new warrant agent shall be a successor warrant agent under
this Agreement without any further act, provided that such corporation is
eligible for appointment as successor to the Warrant Agent under the provisions
of the preceding paragraph. Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly
cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed to the Company and
to the Registered Holders of each Warrant Certificate.
(h) The Warrant Agent, its subsidiaries and
affiliates, and any of its or their officers or directors, may buy and hold or
sell Warrants or other securities of the Company and otherwise deal with the
Company in the same manner and to the same extent and with like effect as though
it were not Warrant Agent. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from
acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity.
(i) The Warrant Agent shall retain for a period of
two years from the date of exercise any Warrant Certificate received by it upon
such exercise, marked to indicate its cancellation thereof in accordance with
Section 6(e) hereof.
SECTION 12. Modification of Agreement.
The Warrant Agent and the Company may by supplemental
agreement make any changes or corrections in this Agreement without the approval
of any holders of Warrants (i) that they shall deem appropriate to cure any
ambiguity or to correct any defective or inconsistent provision or manifest
mistake or error herein contained; (ii) that they may deem necessary or
desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of
Warrant Certificates; or (iii) which may be required by law; provided, however,
that this Agreement shall not otherwise be modified, supplemented or altered in
any respect except with the consent in writing of the Registered Holders
representing not less than 50% of the Warrants then outstanding; provided,
further, that no change in the number of the securities purchasable upon the
exercise of any Warrant, or the Purchase Price therefor, shall be made without
the consent in writing of the Registered Holder of the Warrant Certificate,
other than such changes as are specifically permitted or prescribed by this
22
Agreement as originally executed. In addition, this Agreement may not be
modified, amended or supplemented without the prior written consent of
Representative, other than (i) to cure any ambiguity or to correct any provision
which is inconsistent or which is a manifest mistake or error; (ii) to make any
such change that is necessary or desirable and which shall not adversely affect
the interests of Representative; or (iii) except as may be required by law.
SECTION 13. Notices.
All notices, requests, consents and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been made when
delivered or five days after mailed first-class postage prepaid, or upon receipt
when sent by facsimile, with confirmation received, if to the Registered Holder
of a Warrant Certificate, at the address of such holder as shown on the registry
books maintained by the Warrant Agent; if to the Company at 00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx,

SECTION 14. Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to
conflicts of laws.
SECTION 15. Binding Effect.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the Company, the Warrant Agent and their respective successors and assigns
and the holders from time to time of Warrant Certificates or any of them. Except
as hereinafter stated, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be
construed to confer upon any other person any right, remedy or claim or to
23
impose upon any other person any duty, liability or obligation. Representative
is, and shall at all times irrevocably be deemed to be, a third-party
beneficiary of this Agreement, with full power, authority and standing to
enforce the rights granted to it hereunder. In the event of any conflict
relating to the Underwriter's Warrant between the terms hereof and the terms of
the Underwriter's Warrant Agreement, the terms of the Underwriter's Warrant
Agreement shall prevail.

taken together shall constitute a single document.

WARRANTS
REDEEMABLE WARRANT CERTIFICATE TO
PURCHASE ONE SHARE OF COMMON STOCK
ROOM PLUS, INC.
NO. _______ CUSIP
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, FOR VALUE RECEIVED
or registered assigns (the "Registered Holder") is the owner of the number of
Redeemable Warrants (the "Warrants") specified above. Each Warrant initially
entitles the Registered Holder to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Certificate and the Warrant Agreement (as hereinafter
defined), one fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock, $.00133 par
value, of Room Plus, Inc., a New York corporation (the "Company"), at any time
I
from ______, 1997 and prior to the Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined) upon
the presentation and surrender of this Warrant Certificate with the Subscription
Form on the reverse hereof duly executed, at the corporate office of American
Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Warrant Agent, or its successor (the "Warrant
Agent"), accompanied by payment of $____ per share, subject to adjustment (the
"Purchase Price"), in lawful money of the United States of America in cash or by
check made payable to the Warrant Agent for the account of the Company.
This Warrant Certificate and each Warrant represented hereby
are issued pursuant to and are subject in all respects to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement (the "Warrant Agreement"), dated
______, 1996, by and between the Company and the Warrant Agent.
In the event of certain contingencies provided for in the
Warrant Agreement, the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock
subject to purchase upon the exercise of each Warrant represented hereby are
subject to modification or adjustment.
Each Warrant represented hereby is exercisable at the option
of the Registered Holder, but no fractional interests will be issued. In the
case of the exercise of less than all the warrants represented hereby, the
Company shall cancel this Warrant Certificate upon the surrender hereof and
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of
like tenor, which the Warrant Agent shall countersign, for the balance of such
Warrants.
The term "Expiration Date" shall mean 5:00 P.M. (New York
time) on _______, 2001. If each such date shall in the State of New York be a
holiday or a day on which the banks are authorized to close, then the Expiration

State of New York is not a holiday or a day on which banks are authorized to
close.
The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any securities
pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant unless a registration statement under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), with respect to such
II
securities is effective or an exemption thereunder is available. The Company has
covenanted and agreed that, if required by the Act, and unless during any period
it is not reasonably likely that the Warrants will be exercised, it will file a
registration statement under the Act, use its best efforts to cause the same to
become effective, keep such registration statement current, if required under
the Act, while any of the Warrants are outstanding, and deliver a prospectus
which complies with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act to the Registered Holder
exercising this Warrant. This Warrant shall not be exercisable by a Registered
Holder in any state where such exercise would be unlawful.
This Warrant Certificate is exchangeable, upon the surrender
hereof by the Registered Holder at the corporate office of the Warrant Agent,
for a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor representing
an equal aggregate number of Warrants, each of such new Warrant Certificates to
represent such number of Warrants as shall be designated by such Registered
Holder at the time of such surrender. Upon due presentment and payment of any
tax or other charge imposed in connection therewith or incident thereto, for
registration or transfer of this Warrant Certificate at such office, a new
Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates representing an equal aggregate
number of Warrants will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor,
subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement.
Prior to the exercise of any Warrant represented hereby, the
Registered Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a shareholder of the
Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive
dividends or other distributions, and shall not be entitled to receive any
notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided in the Warrant
Agreement.
Subject to the provisions of the Warrant Agreement, this
Warrant may be redeemed at the option of the Company, at a redemption price of
$.05 per Warrant, at any time commencing after ______, 1997, provided that (i)
the average closing bid price for the Common Stock in the over-the-counter
market as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated
Quotation System, or (ii) the average closing sale price on the primary exchange
III
on which the Common Stock is traded, if the Common Stock is traded on a national
securities exchange, or (iii) the average closing sale price on NASDAQ, if the
Common Stock is quoted on NASDAQ, shall have for thirty (30) consecutive trading
days ending on the fifteenth (15th) day prior to the Notice of Redemption, as
defined below, exceeded 150% of the exercise price (initially $____ per share)
of the Redeemable Warrants (subject to adjustment in the event of any stock
splits or other similar events). Notice of redemption (the "Notice of
Redemption") shall be given not later than the twenty-fifth day before the date
fixed for redemption, all as provided in the Warrant Agreement. On and after the
date fixed for redemption, the Registered Holder shall have no rights with
respect to this Warrant except to receive the $.05 per Warrant upon surrender of
this Certificate.
Under certain circumstances, The Thornwater Company, L.P., its
successors and assigns shall be entitled to receive an aggregate of five percent
(5%) of the Purchase Price of the Warrants represented hereby.
Prior to due presentment for registration or transfer hereof,
the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered Holder as
the absolute owner hereof and of each Warrant represented hereby
(notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone
other than a duly authorized officer of the Company or the Warrant Agent) for
all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except as
provided in the Warrant Agreement.
This Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to
conflicts of laws.
This Warrant Certificate is not valid unless countersigned by
the Warrant Agent.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant
Certificate to be duly executed, manually or in facsimile by two of its officers
thereunto duly authorized and a facsimile of its corporate seal to be imprinted
