Xxxxxxx Trust, whose address is 000 Xxxxxxxx Xx., Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 or registered assigns (the “Holder”), the sum of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) in lawful money of the United States of America on or before the Maturity Date as defined herein, with all Interest thereon as defined and specified herein.
In connection with this Note, the Company will issue Holder a warrant (the “Warrant”) exercisable to purchase five hundred (1,000) shares of its common stock (the “Common Stock”) for every one thousand dollars ($1,000) principal amount of the Note at a price of $1.50 per share for a term of five years. The Warrant is attached as Exhibit A to this Note.
1. Interest and Fees. This Note shall bear interest (“Interest”) equal to eight percent (8%) per annum. Interest will be calculated on a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year. The Company shall pay the Interest on or before the Maturity Date, as defined below. In no event shall the rate of Interest payable on this Note exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law.
2. Payments. All payments under this Note shall be made by the Company hereunder, whether on account of principal or Interest, without set-off or counterclaim and shall first be credited against costs and expenses provided for in this Note, second to the payment of any penalties, third to the payment of accrued and unpaid Interest, if any, and the remainder shall be credited against principal. All payments due hereunder shall be payable in legal tender of the United States of America, and in same day funds delivered to Holder by cashier’s check, certified check, or bank wire transfer to the mailing address provided below, or at such other place as Holder shall designate in writing for such purpose from time to time made prior to noon, Kansas City, Kansas time, on the Maturity Date.

-3- |
3. Maturity Date. This Note shall be due and payable in full, including all accrued Interest thereon, on October 14, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”), subject to Paragraph 4, “Pre-Payments.”
4. Pre-Payments. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Company shall have the right to prepay this Note, in whole or in part without penalty, on ten (10) days’ advance notice to Holder. On such prepayment date, the Company will pay in respect of this Note cash equal to the face amount plus accrued Interest on the Note (or portion thereof) being prepaid.
5. Conversion of Note
5.1 Conversion of Note/Conversion Price. This Note is convertible as to principal and any accrued Interest, at the option of Holder, into shares of the company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) at any time after the issue Date and prior to the close of business on the Business Day preceding the Maturity Date at the rate of One Dollar Fifty Cents ($1.50) per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. The Company will provide written notice of its intent to prepay the Note in whole or in part prior to the Maturity Date. In such case, Holder will have five (5) Business Days following the date on which Holder receives such written notice to determine whether Holder will convert all or part of the Note into Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued. In lieu thereof, the Company will pay cash for fractional share amounts equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock as quoted as the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the date of conversation. If the Company fails to pay the Note when due, whether on the Maturity Date or earlier acceleration thereof upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, without any action on the part of the Company or the Holder, the Conversion Price shall automatically be reduced to Fifty Cents ($0.50) per Share.
5.2 Adjustment to Conversion Price.
5.2.1 The Conversion Price shall be adjusted if the Company shall at any time (i) pay a stock dividend on the Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; (iv) issue by reclassification of its Common Stock any other special capital stock of the Company; or (v) distribute to all holders of Common Stock evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for Common Stock (other than those mentioned above). No adjustment of the Conversion Price will be required until cumulative adjustments amount to One Dollar ($1.00) per Note or more. Upon the occurrence of an event requiring adjustment of the Conversion Price, and thereafter, Holder, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company that Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had this Note been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event.
-4- |
5.3 Adjustment Based Upon Merger or Consolidation. In case of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party (other than a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the outstanding Common Stock of the Company), or in case of any sale or conveyance to another person, firm, or corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, Holder shall have the right to convert this Note into the kind and amount of securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Note might have been converted immediately prior thereto.
5.4 Exercise of Conversion Privilege.
5.4.1 The Conversion Privilege provided for in this Note shall be exercisable by Holder by written notice to the Company or its successor and the surrender of this Note in exchange for the number of shares (or other securities and property, including cash, in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) into which this Note is convertible based upon the Conversion Price.
5.4.2 Holder’s conversion right set forth in this Paragraph 5.4 may be exercised at any time and from time to time but prior to payment in full of the principal amount of the accrued interest on this Note. Conversion rights will expire at the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Maturity Date or redemption date of this Note.
5.4.3 Holder may exercise the right to convert all or any portion of the principal amount and accrued Interest on this Note by delivery of (i) this Note and (ii) a completed Conversion Notice in the form attached as Exhibit A on a Business Day to the Company’s principal executive offices. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day of such delivery a conversion notice (the “Conversion Date”), and Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the shares of Common Stock into which this Note is converted as of such date.
5.4.4 Upon conversion of the entire principal amount and accrued Interest of this Note and the delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 21, “Representations and Warranties to Survive Closing,” the Company shall be forever released from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Note.
5.5 Corporate Status of Common Stock to be Issued. All Common Stock (or other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) which may be issued upon the conversion of this Note shall, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable.
5.6 Issuance of Certificates. Upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days of such conversion, issue to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of the Common Stock (or other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) to which the conversion relates.

6. Unsecured Indebtedness. This Note is unsecured.
7. Status of Holder of Note. This Note shall not entitle Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company or to any rights whatsoever except the rights herein expressed, and no dividends shall be payable or accrue in respect of this Note or the securities issuable upon the conversion hereof unless and until this Note shall be converted. Upon the conversion of this Note, Holder shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered.
8. Reserve of Shares of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, and other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price, a number of shares sufficient to enable it to comply with its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock, and other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price, upon the conversion of this Note.
9. Transfer Restrictions; Exemption from Registration.
9.1 Holder is an Accredited Investor, as such term is defined Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Holder has conducted its own due diligence regarding this investment and the Company. Holder understands and can bear the risks associated with this investment, including the loss of its entire investment in the Note and the underlying Common Stock. Holder agrees that (i) this Note and the shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of Interest and upon conversion have not been registered under the Act and may not be sold or transferred without registration under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available; (ii) Holder has acquired this Note and will acquire the Common Stock for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view toward resale or distribution; and (iii) if a registration statement that includes the Common Stock is not effective at the time Common Stock is issued to Holder upon conversion under this Note, and the Common Stock is not exempt from registration under Rule 144, then the Common Stock shall be inscribed with the following legend:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF HOLDER’S COUNSEL, IN A CUSTOMARY FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.
9.2 If an opinion of counsel of Holder provides that registration is not required for the proposed conversion or transfer of this Note or the proposed transfer of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion and that the proposed conversion or transfer in the absence of registration would require the Company to take any action including executing and filing forms or other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any state securities agency, or delivering to Holder any form or document in order to establish the right of Holder to effectuate the proposed conversion or transfer, the Company agrees promptly, at its expense, to take any such action; and provided, further, that the Company will reimburse Holder in full for any expenses (including but not limited to the fees and disbursements of such counsel, but excluding brokers’ commissions) incurred by Holder or owner of shares of Common Stock on his, her or its behalf in connection with such conversion or transfer of the Note or transfer of the shares of Common Stock.

31. Conversion of Note
31.1 Conversion of Note/Conversion Price. This Note is convertible as to principal and any accrued Interest, at the option of Holder, into shares of the company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) at any time after the issue Date and prior to the close of business on the Business Day preceding the Maturity Date at the rate of One Dollar ($1.00) per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. The Company will provide written notice of its intent to prepay the Note in whole or in part prior to the Maturity Date. In such case, Holder will have five (5) Business Days following the date on which Holder receives such written notice to determine whether Holder will convert all or part of the Note into Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued. In lieu thereof, the Company will pay cash for fractional share amounts equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock as quoted as the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the date of conversation. If the Company fails to pay the Note when due, whether on the Maturity Date or earlier acceleration thereof upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, without any action on the part of the Company or the Holder, the Conversion Price shall automatically be reduced to Fifty Cents ($0.50) per Share.
31.2 Adjustment to Conversion Price.

No adjustment of the Conversion Price will be required until cumulative adjustments amount to One Dollar ($1.00) per Note or more. Upon the occurrence of an event requiring adjustment of the Conversion Price, and thereafter, Holder, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company that Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had this Note been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event.
31.3 Adjustment Based Upon Merger or Consolidation. In case of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party (other than a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the outstanding Common Stock of the Company), or in case of any sale or conveyance to another person, firm, or corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, Holder shall have the right to convert this Note into the kind and amount of securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Note might have been converted immediately prior thereto.

Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day of such delivery a conversion notice (the “Conversion Date”), and Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the shares of Common Stock into which this Note is converted as of such date.
31.4.4 Upon conversion of the entire principal amount and accrued Interest of this Note and the delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 21, “Representations and Warranties to Survive Closing,” the Company shall be forever released from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

Common Stock Purchase Warrant
INFINITY ENERGY RESOURCES, INC. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, hereby certifies that, for value received of $0.001 per Warrant, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx Trust, whose address is 000 Xxxxxxxx Xx., Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 or registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, at any time, or from time to time, after the date hereof and before the Expiration Date (as defined below), to purchase from the Company Two Hundred Fifty Thousand (250,000) shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”), of the Company at a price of One Dollar and no Cents ($1.00) per Share. The purchase price per Share, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, is referred to as the “Exercise Price.” The Company is issuing this Warrant in connection with two 8% Promissory Notes (and extensions thereon) in the total principal amount of $150,000 (the “Note”) issued to the Holder by the Company and this Warrant supersedes and terminates all previous Warrants issued to the Holder on April 14, 2014 and October 2. 2014.
Term of the Warrant.
1.1 Time of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of Sections 1.5, “Transfer and Assignment,” and 3.1, “Registration and Legends,” this Warrant may be exercised at any time and from time to time after 9:00 a.m., local time, on October 2, 2014 (the “Exercise Commencement Date”), but no later than 5:00 p.m., local time, October 2, 2019 (the “Expiration Date”), at which point it shall become void and all rights under this Warrant shall cease.
1.2 Manner of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of Section 1.4, “Holder as Owner,” the Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part on the date hereof or by presentation and surrender thereof to the Company at its principal executive office or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, the subscription form annexed hereto (the “Subscription Form”) duly executed and accompanied by payment as follows:
1.2.1 in cash or by certified or official bank check, payable to the order of the Company, in the amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Shares specified in such form, together with all taxes applicable upon such exercise;
-29- |
1.2.2 by surrendering to the Company that number of Shares owned by the Holder whose value is equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Shares specified in the Subscription Form;
1.2.3 by surrendering the right to acquire a number of Shares having an aggregate value such that the amount by which the aggregate value of such Shares exceeds the aggregate Exercise Price is equal to the Exercise Price;
1.2.4 any combination of the foregoing; or
1.2.5 any other manner acceptable to the Company.
For purposes of surrendering Shares to satisfy the Exercise Price, the value of the Shares shall be equal to the current market price for Common Stock (the “Market Price”) on the relevant date of such exercise of this Warrant from time to time (the “Exercise Date”).
Y (A - B) | |
X = | A |
Where
X — The number of Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y — The number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant.
A — The Market Price of one Share.
B — The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations).
For purposes of this Section 1, the Market Price of a Share shall mean the average of the closing bid and asked prices of Shares quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market or in the over-the-counter market in which the Shares are traded or the closing sale price quoted on any exchange on which the Shares are listed, whichever is applicable, for the ten (10) trading days prior to the date of determination of Market Price (or such shorter period of time during which such stock was traded over-the-counter or on such exchange). If the Shares are not traded on the over-the-counter market or on an exchange, the Market Price shall be the price per Share at which the Company sold Common Stock previous to the date of exercise.
1.2.6 Upon receipt of this Warrant, with the Subscription Form duly executed and accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Shares for which this Warrant is then being exercised, the Company shall cause to be issued certificates or other evidence of ownership for the total number of whole Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised in such denominations as are required for delivery to the Holder, and the Company shall thereupon deliver such documents to the Holder or its nominee.
1.2.7 If the Holder exercises this Warrant with respect to fewer than all of the Shares that may be purchased under this Warrant, the Company shall execute a new Warrant for the balance of the Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant and deliver such new Warrant to the Holder.
-30- |
1.2.8 The Company covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all transfer taxes which may be payable in respect of the issue of this Warrant, or the issue of any Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any transfer or other tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of this Warrant or of the Shares in a name other than that of the Holder at the time of surrender, and until the payment of such tax, the Company shall not be required to issue such Shares.
1.2.9 The Company shall, at the time of any exercise of all or part of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holders shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant, provided that if the Holder of this Warrant shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligations of the Company to afford to such Holder any such rights.
1.3 Exchange of Warrant. This Warrant may be split-up, combined or exchanged for another Warrant or Warrants of like tenor to purchase a like aggregate number of Shares. If the Holder desires to split-up, combine or exchange this Warrant, he shall make such request in writing delivered to the Company at its corporate office and shall surrender this Warrant and any other Warrants to be so split-up, combined or exchanged, the Company shall execute and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Warrant or Warrants, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company shall not be required to effect any split-up, combination or exchange that will result in the issuance of a Warrant entitling the Holder to purchase upon exercise a fraction of a Share. The Company may require the Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any split-up, combination or exchange of Warrants. The term “Warrant” as used herein includes any Warrants issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant, or into which this Warrant may be divided or exchanged.
1.4 Holder as Owner. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Warrant, the Company may deem and treat the Holder as the absolute owner of this Warrant (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon) for the purpose of any exercise hereof and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. Irrespective of the date of issue and delivery of certificates for any Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant, each person in whose name any such certificate is issued shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Shares represented thereby on the date on which all or a portion of the Warrant surrendered in connection with the subscription therefor was surrendered and payment of the Exercise Price was tendered. No surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, however, shall be effective to constitute the person or persons entitled to receive Shares upon such surrender as the record holder of such Shares on such date, but such person or persons shall be constituted the record holder or holders of such Shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are opened. Each person holding any Shares received upon exercise of Warrant shall be entitled to receive only dividends or distributions payable to holders of record on or after the date on which such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Shares.
-31- |
1.5 Transfer and Assignment. This Warrant may not be sold, hypothecated, exercised, assigned or transferred except in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Act”).
1.6 Method for Assignment. Any assignment permitted under this Warrant shall be made by surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal office with the form of assignment attached hereto duly executed and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax. In such event, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the assignee designated in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants that carry the same rights upon presentation thereof at the corporate office of the Company together with a written notice signed by the Holder, specifying the names and denominations in which such new Warrants are to be issued.
1.7 Rights of Holder. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder the right to vote or consent or receive notice as a stockholder in respect of any meetings of stockholders for the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant and prior to its exercise, any of the following shall occur:
1.7.1 The Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution on the books of the Company; or
1.7.2 The Company shall offer to the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, or any option, right or warrant to subscribe therefor; or
1.7.3 There shall be proposed any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or a consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity; or
1.7.4 There shall be proposed a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder, at the earliest practicable time (and, in any event, not less than thirty (30) days before any record date or other date set for definitive action), written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken to determine the stockholders entitled to such dividend, distribution, convertible or exchangeable securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such reorganization, reclassification, sale, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, as the case may be. Such notice shall also set forth such facts as shall indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Exercise Price and the kind and amount of the Common Stock and other securities and property deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record shall participate in said distribution or subscription rights or shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, sale, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, as the case may be (on which date, in the event of voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, the right to exercise this Warrant shall terminate). Without limiting the obligation of the Company to provide notice to the holder of actions hereunder, the failure of the Company to give notice shall not invalidate such action of the Company.
-32- |
1.8 Lost Warrant Certificate(s). Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, including a surety bond if required by the Company, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will cause to be executed and delivered a new Warrant of like tenor and date. Any such new Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute an additional contractual obligation on the part of the Company, whether or not this Warrant so lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
1.9 Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees as follows:
1.9.1 At all times it shall reserve and keep available for the exercise of this Warrant into Common Stock such number of authorized shares of Common Stock as are sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant into Common Stock; and
1.9.2 All Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrant shall be duly authorized, validly issued and outstanding, fully-paid and non-assessable.
2. Adjustment of the Exercise Price and Number of Shares Purchasable Upon Exercise
2.1 Default in Payment of the Note. If the Company fails to pay the Note when due whether on the Maturity Date or earlier acceleration thereof upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as such terms are defined in the Note, without any action on the part of the Company or the Holder, the Exercise Price shall automatically be reduced to Fifty Cents ($0.50) per Share.
2.2 Recapitalization. The number of Shares purchasable on exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price therefor shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in the event that the Company shall: (i) pay a dividend in, or make a distribution of, shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) spin-off a subsidiary by distributing, as a dividend or otherwise, shares of the subsidiary to its stockholders. In any such case, the total number of shares purchasable on exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive, at the same aggregate purchase price, the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would have owned or would have been entitled to receive immediately following the occurrence of any of the events described above had this Warrant been exercised in full immediately prior to the occurrence (or applicable record date) of such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2 shall, in the case of a stock dividend or distribution, be made as of the record date and, in the case of a subdivision or combination, be made as of the effective date thereof. If, as a result of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2, the Holder shall become entitled to receive shares of two or more classes of series of securities of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company shall equitably determine the allocation of the adjusted purchase price between or among shares or other units of such classes or series and shall notify the Holder of such allocation.
-33- |
2.3 Merger or Consolidation. In the event of any reorganization or recapitalization of the Company or in the event the Company consolidates with or merges into another entity or transfers all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, then and in each such event, the Holder, on exercise of this Warrant as provided herein, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger or transfer, shall be entitled, and the documents executed to effectuate such event shall so provide, to receive the stock or other securities or property to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if the Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto. In such case, the terms of this Warrant shall survive the consummation of any such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger or transfer and shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities or property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation and as an exchange for a larger or smaller number of shares, as the case may be.
2.4 Notice of Dissolution or Liquidation. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3, “Merger or Consolidation,” in the case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, or in the case of the dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, all rights under this Warrant shall terminate on a date fixed by the Company, such date so fixed to be not earlier than the date of the commencement of the proceedings for such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and not later than thirty (30) days after such commencement date. Notice of such termination of purchase rights shall be given to the Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination date.
2.5 Statement of Adjustment. Any adjustment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2 shall be made on the basis of the number of Shares which the Holder would have been entitled to acquire by exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the event giving rise to such adjustment and, as to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the rise to such adjustment. Whenever any such adjustment is required to be made, the Company shall forthwith determine the new number of Shares that the Holder hereof shall be entitled to purchase hereunder and/or such new Exercise Price and shall prepare, retain on file and transmit to the Holder within ten (10) days after such preparation a statement describing in reasonable detail the method used in calculating such adjustment.
2.6 No Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a Share in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, and in any case where the Holder would, except for the provisions of this Section 2.6, be entitled under the terms of this Warrant to receive a fraction of a Share upon such exercise, the Company shall upon the exercise and receipt of the Exercise Price, issue the largest number of whole Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not be required to make any cash or other adjustment in respect of such fraction of a Share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled. The Holder, by the acceptance of this Warrant, expressly waives his right to receive a certificate for any fraction of a Share upon exercise hereof.
-34- |
2.7 No Change in Form Required. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any change pursuant to this Section 2 in the Exercise Price or in the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of a Warrant, may state the same Exercise Price and the same number of shares of Common Stock as are stated in the Warrants initially issued pursuant to the Agreement.
3. Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933.
3.1 Registration and Legends. The Holder understands that (i) the Company has not registered the Warrant or the Shares under the Act, or the applicable securities laws of any state in reliance on exemptions from registration and (ii) such exemptions depend upon the Holder’s investment intent at the time the Holder acquires the Warrant or the Shares. The Holder therefore represents and warrants that it is acquiring the Warrant, and will acquire the Shares, for the Holder’s own account for investment and not with a view to distribution, assignment, resale or other transfer of the Warrant or the Shares. Because the Warrant and the Shares are not registered, the Holder is aware that the Holder must hold them indefinitely unless they are registered under the Act and any applicable securities laws or the Holder must obtain exemptions from such registration. Upon exercise, in part or in whole, of this Warrant, the Shares shall bear the following legend:
The shares of Common Stock represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Act”) or any applicable state securities laws, and they may not be offered for sale, sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated without an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under any applicable state securities laws, or an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company, that an exemption from such registration is available.
3.2 No-Action Letter. The Company agrees that it will be satisfied that no post-effective amendment or new registration is required for the public sale of the Shares if it shall be presented with a letter from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), stating in effect that, based upon stated facts which the Company shall have no reason to believe are not true in any material respect, the Staff will not recommend any action to the Commission if such Shares are offered and sold without delivery of a prospectus, and that, therefore, no Registration Statement under which such shares are to be registered is required to be filed.
3.3 Agreements. The agreements in this Section shall continue in effect regardless of the exercise and surrender of this Warrant.
-35- |
4. Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve, for the purpose of issuance on exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of Common Stock or such class or classes of capital stock or other securities as shall from time to time be sufficient to comply with this Warrant and the Company shall take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized and unissued Common Stock or such other class or classes of capital stock or other securities to such number as shall be sufficient for that purpose.
5. Survival. All agreements, covenants, representations and warranties herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Warrant and any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any parties hereto and the exercise, sale and purchase of this Warrant (and any other securities or property) issuable on exercise hereof.
6. Remedies. The Company agrees that the remedies at law of the Holder, in the event of any default or threatened default by the Company in the performance or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant, may not be adequate and such terms may, in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedy, be specifically enforced by a decree of specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.
7. Representations and Warranties by the Holder. The Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
7.1 This Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise thereof are being acquired for its own account, for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Act. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall, if so requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale;
7.2 The Holder understands that the Warrant and the Shares have not been registered under the Act or any applicable state securities laws by reason of their issuance in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and that they must be held by the Holder indefinitely, and that the Holder must therefore bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely, unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Act or any applicable state securities laws or is exempted from such registration;
7.3 The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the purchase of this Warrant and the Shares purchasable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant and of protecting its interests in connection therewith;
7.4 The Holder is able to bear the economic risk of the purchase of the Shares pursuant to the terms of this Warrant; and
7.5 The Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
