FOR VALUE RECEIVED, subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, the undersigned, Biodel Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer”), hereby certifies that [                    ] and its registered assigns is entitled to subscribe for and purchase, during the period specified in this Warrant, up to [                    ] shares (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided) of the duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Issuer (the “Preferred Stock”), or if all of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock have been converted in accordance with its terms into Common Stock of the Issuer (the “Common Stock”), into such number of shares of Common Stock as the Preferred Stock would have been convertible into (the Preferred Stock or Common Stock into which this Warrant is exercisable for, the “Warrant Stock”), at an exercise price per share equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, subject, however, to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Capitalized terms used in this Warrant and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings specified in Section 7 hereof.

 


 

     1. Term. The right to subscribe for and purchase shares of Warrant Stock represented hereby shall commence on the date of issuance of this Warrant and shall expire at 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on the seventh anniversary of the date of issuance (such period being the "Term").
2. Method of Exercise Payment; Issuance of New Warrant; Transfer and Exchange.
     (a) Time of Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time during the Term.
     (b) Method of Exercise. The Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the exercise form attached hereto duly executed) at the principal office of the Issuer, together with the payment to the Issuer of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised, payable at such Holder’s election (i) by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Issuer (ii) by “cashless exercise” by surrender to the Issuer for cancellation of a portion of this Warrant representing that number of unissued shares of Warrant Stock which is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the product obtained by multiplying the Warrant Price by the number of shares of Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise by (B) the Per Share Market Value as of the date of such exercise, or (iii) by a combination of the foregoing methods of payment selected by the Holder of this Warrant. In any case where the consideration payable upon such exercise is being paid in whole or in part pursuant to the provisions of clause (ii) of this subsection (b), such exercise shall be accompanied by written notice from the Holder of this Warrant specifying the manner of payment thereof and containing a calculation showing the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which rights are being surrendered thereunder and the net number of shares to be issued after giving effect to such surrender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that the Per Share Market Value on the last day this Warrant is exercisable is greater than the Warrant Price then in effect, without any further action this Warrant shall be automatically exercised on such date by “cashless exercise”.
     (c) Issuance of Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) Trading Days after such exercise, and the Holder hereof shall be deemed for all purposes to be the Holder of the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of the date of such exercise, and (ii) unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant representing the number of shares of Warrant Stock, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised (less any amount thereof which shall have been canceled in payment or partial payment of the Warrant Price as hereinabove provided) shall also be issued to the Holder hereof at the Issuer’s expense within such time.

     (d) Transferability of Warrant. Subject to Section 2(e), this Warrant may be transferred, in whole or in part, by a Holder without the consent of the Issuer. If transferred pursuant to this paragraph and subject to the provisions of subsection (e) of this Section 2, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer, properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment in the form attached hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable at the principal office of the issuer for Warrants for the purchase of the same aggregate number of shares of Warrant Stock, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase such number of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder hereof shall designate at the time of such exchange. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Original Issue Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant hereto.
     (e) Compliance with Securities Laws.
     (i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant or the shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other Person, and for investment and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
     (ii) Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all certificates representing shares of Warrant Stock issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE ISSUER MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

3


 

     (iii) The restrictions imposed by this subsection (e) upon the transfer of this Warrant or the shares of Warrant Stock to be purchased upon exercise hereof shall terminate (A) when such securities shall have been resold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (B) upon the Issuer’s receipt of an opinion of counsel, which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, addressed to the Issuer to the effect that such restrictions are no longer required to ensure compliance with the Securities Act and state securities laws or (C) upon the Issuer’s receipt of other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required. Whenever such restrictions shall cease and terminate as to any such securities, the Holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Issuer (or its transfer agent and registrar), without expense (other than applicable transfer taxes, if any), new Warrants (or, in the case of shares of Warrant Stock, new stock certificates) of like tenor not bearing the applicable legend required by paragraph (ii) above relating to the Securities Act and state securities laws.
     (f) Continuing Rights of Holder. The Issuer will at the time of or at any time after each exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, provided that if any such Holder shall fail to make any such request the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford such rights to such Holder.
     3. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation and Listing of Shares; Covenants.
     (a) Stock Fully Paid. The Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all shares of Warrant Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or otherwise hereunder will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by or through Issuer. The Issuer further covenants and agrees that during the period within which this Warrant may he exercised the Issuer will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of the issue upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares of Preferred Stock, or in the event that all of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock have been converted into Common Stock, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock, to provide for the exercise of this Warrant.
     (b) Reservation. If any shares of Warrant Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder require registration or qualification with any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its commercially reasonable efforts expeditiously at its expense to cause such shares to be duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer shall list any shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange or market it will, at its expense, list thereon, maintain and increase when necessary such listing of all shares of Common Stock from time to time issued upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder, and, to the extent permissible under the applicable securities exchange rules, all unissued shares of Common Stock which are at any time issuable

4


 

hereunder, so long as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed. The Issuer will also so list on each securities exchange or market, and will maintain such listing of, any other securities which the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant if at the time any securities of the same class shall be listed on such securities exchange or market by the Issuer.
     (c) Covenants. The Issuer shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the Certificate of Incorporation or the by-laws of the Issuer, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other 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 the Holder hereof against dilution (to the extent specifically provided herein) or impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer will (i) not permit the par value, if any, of its Warrant Stock to exceed the then effective Warrant Price, (ii) not amend or modify any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of the Issuer in any manner that would adversely affect in any way the powers, preferences or relative participating, optional or other special rights of the Warrant Stock or which would adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Warrants, (iii) take all such action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the Issuer may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Warrant Stock, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions (other than as provided herein) upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iv) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
     (d) Loss, Theft. Destruction of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory to the Issuer or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Issuer will make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same number of shares of Warrant Stock.
     (e) Registration Rights. The Holders of the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock comprising the Warrant Stock, or if all of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock have been converted into Common Stock, the Common Stock comprising the Warrant Stock shall be entitled to one (1) demand registration, and unlimited piggyback registrations, on the terms and subject to the conditions, mutatis mutandis, contained in that certain Subscription and Rights Agreement. The demand shall be initiated the Majority Holders.

     4. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Warrant Share Number. The number of shares of Warrant Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, and the price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Issuer shall give the Holder notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 in accordance with Section 5.
     A. Until such time as the Preferred Stock shall be converted in accordance with its terms into Common Stock:
          (a) Stock Splits and Combinations. If outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such stock dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If outstanding Preferred Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Warrant Price pursuant to this subsection A(a), the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Warrant Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
          (b) Adjustment for Dividends or Distributions of Stock or Other Securities or Property. If the Issuer shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Preferred Stock payable in (a) securities of the Issuer or (b) assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings), (the “Distribution”) then, in each such case, the Holders of this Warrant on exercise hereof at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, shall receive, in addition to the shares of Preferred Stock (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefor, the securities or such other assets of the Issuer to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the date hereof

6


 

and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares or all other additional stock available by it as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by Section 4A.
          (c) Reclassification, Etc. In case there occurs any reclassification or change of the outstanding securities of the Issuer or of any reorganization of the Issuer (or any other corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) or any similar corporate reorganization on or after the date hereof, then and in each such case the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such reclassification, change, or reorganization shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 4A.
          (d) Conversion of Preferred Stock. If all of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock have been converted into shares of Common Stock, then this Warrant shall automatically become exercisable for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and the shares of Preferred Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such event, and the Warrant Price shall be automatically adjusted to equal the number obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate Warrant Price of the shares of Preferred Stock for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such redemption or conversion, by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such redemption or conversion, in all such cases, subject to further adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 4B.
B. At any time in which only Common Stock shall be purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant:
     (a) Recapitalization, Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
          (i) In case the Issuer shall do any of the following (each, a "Triggering Event”): (a) consolidate with or merge into any other Person

7


 

and the Issuer shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (b) permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Issuer and the Issuer shall be the continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with such consolidation or merger, either the Common Stock or the Preferred Stock of the Issuer shall be changed into or exchanged for Securities of any other Person or cash or any other property, or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person, or (d) effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of its Capital Stock, then, and in the case of each such Triggering Event, proper provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner provided in this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled (x) upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such Triggering Event, to the extent this Warrant is not exercised prior to such Triggering Event, to receive at the Warrant Price in effect at the time immediately prior to the consummation of such Triggering Event in lieu of the Common Stock issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant prior to such Triggering Event, the Securities, cash and property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such Triggering Event if such Holder had exercised the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior thereto, subject to adjustments (subsequent to such corporate action) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for elsewhere in this Section 4B or (y) to sell this Warrant (or, at such Holder’s election, a portion hereof) concurrently with the Triggering Event to the Person continuing after or surviving such Triggering Event, or to the Issuer (if Issuer is the continuing or surviving Person) at a sales price equal to the amount of cash, property and/or Securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise have been delivered upon the exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled upon the effective date or closing of any such Triggering Event (the “Event Consideration”), less an amount equal to the aggregate Warrant Price applicable to this Warrant or the portion hereof so sold.
          (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Issuer will not effect any Triggering Event unless, prior to the consummation thereof, each Person (other than the Issuer) which may he required to deliver any Securities, cash or property upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory to the Holder of this Warrant, (A) the obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant (and if the Issuer shall survive the consummation of such Triggering Event, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release the Issuer from, any continuing obligations of the Issuer under this Warrant) and (B) the obligation to deliver to such

8


 

Holder such shares of Securities, cash or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this subsection (a), such Holder shall be entitled to receive, and such Person shall have similarly delivered to such Holder an opinion of counsel for such Person, which counsel and opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, stating that this Warrant shall thereafter continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof (including, without limitation, all of the provisions of this subsection (a)) shall be applicable to the Securities, cash or property which such Person may be required to deliver upon any exercise of this Warrant or the exercise of any rights pursuant hereto.
          (iii) If with respect to any Triggering Event, the Holder of this Warrant has exercised its right as provided in clause (y) of subparagraph (i) of this subsection (a) to sell this Warrant or a portion thereof, the Issuer agrees that as a condition to the consummation of any such Triggering Event the Issuer shall secure such right of Holder to sell this Warrant to the Person continuing after or surviving such Triggering Event and the Issuer shall not effect any such Triggering Event unless upon or prior to the consummation thereof the amounts of cash, property and/or Securities required under such clause (y) are delivered to the Holder of this Warrant. The obligation of the Issuer to secure such right of the Holder to sell this Warrant shall be subject to such Holder’s cooperation with the Issuer, including, without limitation, the giving of customary representations and warranties to the purchaser in connection with any such sale. Prior notice of any Triggering Event shall be given to the Holder of this Warrant in accordance with Section 11 hereof.
          (b) Stock Dividends. Subdivisions and Combinations. If the Issuer shall:
          (i) take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, Additional Shares of-Common Stock,
          (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or
          (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then (1) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable

9


 

immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event, and (2) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.
          (c) Certain Other Distributions. If the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or other distribution of:
          (i) cash (other than a cash dividend payable out of earnings or earned surplus legally available for the payment of dividends under the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Issuer),
          (ii) any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents or Additional Shares of Common Stock), or
          (iii) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents or Additional Shares of Common Stock),
then (1) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Per Share Market Value of Common Stock at the date of taking such record and (B) the denominator of which shall be such Per Share Market Value minus the amount allocable to one share of Common Stock of any such cash so distributable and of the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer and supported by an opinion from an investment banking firm of recognized national or regional standing reasonably acceptable to the Holder) of any and all such evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or other subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (2) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares

10


 

of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Issuer to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4B(c) and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section 4B(b).
          (d) Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.
          (i) If at any time the Issuer shall issue or sell any Additional Shares of Common Stock to a third party other than the Holder of this Warrant (or any transferees of this Warrant) in exchange for consideration in an amount per Additional Share of Common Stock which is less than the Warrant Price at the time the Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or sold, the adjustment required under Section 4B(d) shall he made in accordance with the formula in paragraph (ii) below. The provisions of paragraph (i) of Section 4B(d) shall not apply to any issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock for which an adjustment is provided under Section 4B(b) or 4B(c). No adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant shall be exercisable shall be made under this paragraph (i) of Section 4B(d) upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other subscription or purchase rights or pursuant to the exercise of any conversion or exchange rights in any Common Stock Equivalents, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights or upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents (or upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor) pursuant to Section 4B(f).
          (ii) If the Issuer at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall issue any Additional Shares of Common Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (a) through (c) of this Section 4B), at a price per share less than the Warrant Price then in effect or without consideration, then the Warrant Price upon each such issuance shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a fraction:

11


 

          (A) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock plus (y) provided that such Additional Shares of Common Stock are not included in (x), the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at a price per share equal to the greater of the Per Share Market Value then in effect and the Warrant Price then in effect, and
          (B) the denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock plus (y) provided such number of shares of Additional shares of Common Stock are not included in (x), the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock.
          (e) Intentionally Omitted.
          (f) Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents. If the Issuer shall take a record of the Holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is the surviving corporation) issue or sell, any Common Stock Equivalents, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted as provided in Section 4B(d) on the basis that the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock necessary to effect the conversion or exchange of all such Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have been issued and outstanding and the Issuer shall have received all of the consideration payable therefor, if any, as of the date of actual issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents. No further adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents.
          (g) Superseding Adjustment. If, at any time after any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall have been made pursuant to Section 4B(f) as the result of any issuance of warrants, other rights or Common Stock Equivalents, and (i) such warrants or other

12


 

rights, or the right of conversion or exchange in such other Common Stock Equivalents, shall expire, and all or a portion of such warrants or other rights, or the right of conversion or exchange with respect to all or a portion of such other Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be shall not have been exercised, or (ii) the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable pursuant to such Common Stock Equivalents, shall have been increased solely by virtue of provisions therein contained for an automatic increase in such consideration per share upon the occurrence of a specified date or event, then for each outstanding Warrant such previous adjustment shall be rescinded and annulled and the Additional Shares of Common Stock which were deemed to have been issued by virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such computation. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in this Section 4B(g) above, there shall be a recomputation made of the effect of such Common Stock Equivalents on the basis of: (i) treating the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock or other property, if any, theretofore actually issued or issuable pursuant to the previous exercise of any such warrants or other rights or any such right of conversion, or exchange, as having been issued on the date or dates of any such exercise and for the consideration actually received and receivable therefor, and (ii) treating any such Common Stock Equivalents which then remain outstanding as having been granted or issued immediately after the time of such increase of the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock or other property are issuable under such Common Stock Equivalents; whereupon a new adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made, which new adjustment shall supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled.
          (h) Purchase of Common Stock by the Issuer. If the Issuer at any time while this Warrant is outstanding shall, directly or indirectly through a Subsidiary or otherwise, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of Common Stock at a price per share greater than the Per Share Market Value, then the Warrant Price upon each such purchase, redemption or acquisition shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such purchase, redemption or acquisition minus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration for the total number of such shares of Common Stock so purchased, redeemed or acquired would purchase at the Per Share Market Value; and (ii) the

13


 

denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such purchase, redemption or acquisition. For the purposes of this subsection (h), the date as of which the Per Share Market Price shall be computed shall be the date used to determine the price of such purchase, redemption or acquisition of Common Stock. For the purposes of this subsection (h), a purchase, redemption or acquisition of a Common Stock Equivalent shall be deemed to be a purchase of the underlying Common Stock, and the computation herein required shall he made on the basis of the full exercise, conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalent on the date as of which such computation is required hereby to be made, whether or not such Common Stock Equivalent is actually exercisable, convertible or exchangeable on such date.
          (i) Other Provisions applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect provided for in this Section 4B.
                    (i) Computation of Consideration. To the extent that any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (or any warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued for cash consideration, the consideration received by the Issuer therefor shall be the amount of the cash received by the Issuer therefor, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are offered by the Issuer for subscription, the consideration received by the Issuer shall be the subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the consideration received by the Issuer shall be the initial public offering price (in any such case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest or accrued dividends and without taking into account any compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Issuer for and in the underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof). To the extent that such issuance shall be for a consideration other than cash, then, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the amount of such consideration shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration at the time of such issuance as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer. In case any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (or any warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued in connection with any merger in which the Issuer issues any securities, the amount of consideration

14


 

therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the issuer, of such portion of the assets and business of the nonsurviving corporation as such Board in good faith shall determine to be attributable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents, or any warrants or other rights therefor, as the case may be. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such warrants or other rights plus the additional consideration payable to the Issuer upon exercise of such warrants or other rights. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any Common Stock Equivalents shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase such Common Stock Equivalents, plus the consideration paid or payable to the Issuer in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such Common Stock Equivalents, plus the additional consideration, if any, payable to the Issuer upon the exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in such Common Stock Equivalents. In case of the issuance at any time of any Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents in payment or satisfaction of any dividends upon any class of stock other than Common Stock, the Issuer shall be deemed to have received for such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents a consideration equal to the amount of such dividend so paid or satisfied.
          (ii) When Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 4B shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable that would otherwise be required may be postponed (except in the case of a subdivision or combination of shares of the Common Stock, as provided for in Section 4B(b)) up to, but not beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made adds or subtracts less than one percent (1%) of the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount (except as aforesaid) which is postponed shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 4B and not previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.

15


 

          (iii) Fractional interests. In computing adjustments under this Section 4B, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to the nearest one one-hundredth (1 /100th) of a share.
          (iv) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled. In addition, no adjustment shall be required under Section 4B(d)(i) hereof in the event the Issuer issues or sells Additional Shares in a transaction whose primary purpose is to establish a relationship with the recipient thereof for strategic reasons and not to raise capital.
     (k) Form of Warrant after Adjustments. The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustments in the Warrant Price or the number and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
     (1) Escrow of Warrant Stock. If after any property becomes distributable pursuant to this Section 4B by reason of the taking of any record of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the occurrence of the event for which such record is taken, and the Holder exercises this Warrant, any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise by reason of such adjustment shall be deemed the last shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised (notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein) and such shares or other property shall be held in escrow for the Holder by the Issuer to be issued to the Holder upon and to the extent that the event actually takes place, upon payment of the current Warrant Price. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein. if the event for which such record was taken fails to occur or is rescinded, then such escrowed shares shall be cancelled by the Issuer and escrowed property returned.
     5. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Price or Warrant Share Number shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 A or B hereof (for purposes of this Section 5, each an “adjustment”), the issuer shall cause its Chief Financial Officer to prepare and execute a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated

16


 

(including a description of the basis on which the Board made any determination hereunder), and the Warrant Price and Warrant Share Number after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant promptly after each adjustment. Any dispute between the Issuer and the Holder of this Warrant with respect to the matters set forth in such certificate may at the request of the Holder of this Warrant, be submitted to one of the national accounting firms currently known as the “big four” selected by the Issuer and reasonably acceptable to the Holder. The firm so selected as provided in the preceding sentence shall be instructed to deliver a written opinion as to such matters to the Issuer and such Holder within thirty (30) days after submission to it of such dispute. Such opinion shall be final and binding the parties hereto. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be paid by the Issuer.
     6. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Stock will be issued in connection with an exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional shares, the Issuer shall make a cash payment therefor equal in amount to the product of the applicable fraction multiplied by the Per Share Market Value then in effect.
