CLEARWIRE CORPORATION
WARRANT TO PURCHASE CLASS A COMMON SHARES
Warrant No.:
Number of Class A Common Shares:
Date of Issuance:          (“Issuance Date”)
          Clearwire Corporation, a corporation incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Cede & Co., the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to purchase Class A Common Shares (as defined herein) (including any Warrants to purchase Class A Common Shares issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times, but not after 11:59 p.m., New York Time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below),                      fully paid nonassessable Class A Common Shares (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 16. This Warrant is one of the Warrants to purchase Class A Common Shares (the “SPA Warrants”) issued pursuant to Section 1 of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), dated as of August 5, 2005 (the “Subscription Date”), by and among the Company and the investors referred to therein (the “Buyers”).
1.   EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
  (a)   Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery by facsimile with a confirmatory written notice by overnight delivery, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant, (ii) delivery of a signed letter substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Recertification Letter”), and (iii)(A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On or before the second Business Day following the date on which the Company has received each of the Exercise Notice, the Recertification Letter and the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) (the “Exercise Delivery Documents”), the Company shall transmit by facsimile an

2


 

      acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the third Business Day following the date on which the Company has received all of the Exercise Delivery Documents (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall, subject to applicable law (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of Class A Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Class A Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and Aggregate Exercise Price referred to in clause (iii)(A) above or notification to the Company of a Cashless Exercise referred to in Section 1(d), the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional Class A Common Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of Class A Common Shares to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. If a Holder exercises a Warrant, the Company shall pay any transfer, stamp or similar taxes or duties related to the issue or delivery of Class A Common Shares upon such exercise. In addition, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. The Transfer Agent may refuse to deliver the certificate representing the Class A Common Shares being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Transfer Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because such shares are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulation.
  (b)   Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means, subject to adjustment as provided herein, the lesser of (x) $15.00 and (y) the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Class A Common Shares on the Principal Market for the first twenty (20) Trading Days after the expiration (the “Qualified IPO Lock-Up Expiration Date”) of any lock-up restrictions which the Holder entered into in connection with a Qualified IPO; provided, that,

3


 

      if (i) the Qualified IPO Lock-Up Expiration Date has not occurred or (ii) a Qualified IPO has not yet occurred on or before the date of exercise, the Exercise Price shall mean $15.00.
  (c)   Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. Subject to Section 13, if within three (3) Trading Days after the Company’s receipt of the facsimile copy of an Exercise Notice, with confirmatory notice by overnight delivery, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder and register such Class A Common Shares on the Company’s share register or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Class A Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon such holder’s exercise hereunder, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Class A Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Class A Common Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three Business Days after the Holder’s request, pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Class A Common Shares so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Class A Common Shares) shall terminate.
  (d)   Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of Class A Common Shares determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
         
Net Number =
  (A x B) - (A x C)    
 
  B    
 
       
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.
B= the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Class A Common Shares during the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.
C= the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.
  (e)   Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 13.

4


 

  (f)   Limitations on Exercises; Beneficial Ownership. Other than in contemplation of, upon and following a Change of Control, the Company shall not effect the exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Exercise Limitation”) of the Class A Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the Class A Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the Class A Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the Class A Common Shares which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of the Warrants beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its affiliates (including, without limitation, any notes or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of this Section 1(f), in determining the number of outstanding Class A Common Shares, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Class A Common Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent public filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the case may be, (y) a recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Class A Common Shares outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Class A Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Class A Common Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the SPA Warrants, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding Class A Common Shares was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase or decrease the Exercise Limitation to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified in such notice; provided that (A) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (B) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and not to any other holder of SPA Warrants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this provision shall only apply from and after the time that the Company shall have registered securities pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
2.   ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
  (a)   Adjustment Upon Subdivision or Combination of Class A Common Shares. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any stock

5


 

      split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Class A Common Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Class A Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
  (b)   Other Events. If any event (but, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding Class A Common Shares deemed to have been issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities) occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(b) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.
  (c)   Notice of Adjustments; Warrant Deemed Outstanding. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price or of the number or kind of securities into which this Warrant is exercisable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares or other securities subject to this Warrant resulting from such adjustment, as the case may be, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the method of such calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. If during the period beginning on and including August 5, 2005 and ending on the date immediately preceding the issuance date of the Predecessor Warrant, the Company entered into, or in accordance with terms of this Warrant would have been deemed to have entered into (had this Warrant been outstanding at such time), any issuance or sale, or in accordance with this Section 2 deemed issuance or sale, of any Class A Common Shares (including the issuance or sale of Class A Common Shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company), but excluding Class A Common Shares deemed to have been issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities (as defined in Section 8(a)(i) below); for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price (the “Applicable Price”) equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), subdivision, combination or any other similar event, then solely for purposes of determining any adjustment under this Section 2 as a result of such Dilutive Issuance, deemed Dilutive Issuance, subdivision, combination or other similar event, this Warrant shall be deemed to have been outstanding for purposes

6


 

      of this Section 2 at the time of each such Dilutive Issuance, deemed Dilutive Issuance, subdivision, combination or other similar event, as applicable.
  (d)   Reorganization or Reclassification. Any recapitalization, reorganization or reclassification, in each case which is effected in such a way that the holders of Class A Common Shares are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Class A Common Shares is referred to herein as “Organic Change.” Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holders) to insure that each of the Holders shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Class A Common Shares immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of such Holder’s Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issued or payable in such Organic Change (if the holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such Organic Change) with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of such Holder’s Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place. In any such case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holders) with respect to such Holders’ rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 2 and Sections 3 and 4 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to the Warrant.
3.   RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. Subject to Section 4(a), if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Class A Common Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case:
  (a)   any Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Class A Common Shares entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the Closing Bid Price of the Class A Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) applicable to one Class A Common Share, and (ii) the denominator shall be the arithmetic average of the Closing Bid Price of the Class A Common Shares during the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately preceding such record date; and
  (b)   the number of Warrant Shares shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of Class A Common Shares obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Class A Common Shares entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal

7


 

      of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph (a); provided, that in the event that the Distribution is of Capital Stock (“Other Capital Stock”) of a company whose Capital Stock is traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the Holder may elect to receive a warrant to purchase Other Capital Stock in lieu of an increase in the number of Warrant Shares, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the number of shares of Other Capital Stock that would have been payable to the Holder pursuant to the Distribution had the Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an aggregate exercise price equal to the product of the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding paragraph (a) and the number of Warrant Shares calculated in accordance with the first part of this paragraph (b).
4.   PURCHASE RIGHTS; CHANGE OF CONTROL.
  (a)   Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (unless pursuant to pre-emptive rights existing on the date hereof set forth on Schedule 3(o) to the Securities Purchase Agreement) pro rata to all of record holders of Class A Common Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then, upon the Holder’s election, the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights and in lieu of any adjustments to which the Holder is otherwise entitled under Section 3 above in respect of such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Class A Common Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Class A Common Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.
  (b)   Change of Control. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Change of Control unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of this Section (4)(b) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders, including agreements to deliver to each holder of SPA Warrants in exchange for such SPA Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, an adjusted Exercise Price equal to the lesser of the Exercise Price that is then in effect and the value for the Class A Common Shares reflected by the terms of any such Change of Control (provided that if over two-thirds of the consideration for the Class A Common Shares in a Change of Control consists of cash or property other than equity securities then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to the lesser of the Exercise Price that is then in effect and the price that is 90% of the value for the

8


 

      Class A Common Shares reflected by the Change of Control), exercisable for the Adjusted Warrant Consideration (as defined below). Upon the occurrence of any Change of Control, the Successor Entity, if other than the Company, shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Change of Control, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of any Change of Control, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Change of Control, in lieu of the Class A Common Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Change of Control, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Change of Control had this Warrant been converted immediately prior to such Change of Control, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant (the “Adjusted Warrant Consideration”). In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Change of Control pursuant to which holders of Class A Common Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for Class A Common Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Change of Control but prior to the Expiration Date, in lieu of the Class A Common Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Change of Control, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Change of Control had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Change of Control. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders. In connection with any Change of Control in which all holders of Class A Common Shares and securities convertible into, exercisable for and exchangeable for Class A Common Shares are solely to receive in such Change of Control cash and/or securities of an entity that is not a publicly traded corporation whose Capital Stock is quoted on or listed on a securities exchange or quotation system in exchange for such securities, the Company shall have the right to require the Holder to sell all or any portion of its Warrants to the Company for cash payable at consummation of such Change of Control in an amount equal to the greatest of (i) the product of (a) the total number of shares for which this Warrant may be exercised and (b) $7.50, (ii) the product of (a) the total number of shares for which this Warrant may be exercised and (b) the difference between the Exercise Price then in effect and the consideration per share received in such Change of Control and (iii) the product of (a) the total number of shares for which this Warrant may be exercised and (b) the value per Warrant Share of

9


 

      the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such consummation, which value shall be determined by use of the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of this Warrant as of such date of request and (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 60% and, to the extent applicable, the 100 day volatility obtained from the historical price volatility (“HVG”) function on Bloomberg. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Change of Control and Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant.
5.   NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, scheme or plan of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any Class A Common Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Class A Common Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the SPA Warrants are outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Class A Common Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the SPA Warrants, the number of Class A Common Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of the SPA Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).
6.   WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

10


 

7.   REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.
  (a)   Transfer of Warrant. This Warrant may only be offered, sold or otherwise transferred (a) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, (b) to the Company, (c) to an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the 1933 Act, (d) to a “qualified institutional buyer” in accordance with Rule 144A of the 1933 Act, (e) outside the United States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S of the 1933 Act, (f) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the 1933 Act (if available) or (g) pursuant to another available exception from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject to the Company’s right prior to any such offer, sale or transfer pursuant to clause (g) to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certification and/or other information reasonably satisfactory to it that does not require registration under the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws, and the holder shall furnish to the Company an opinion to such effect from counsel of recognized standing reasonably satisfactory to the Company prior to such offer, sale or transfer. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less then the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred and the transferee shall agree to be bound by the terms hereof.
 
      No transfer of a Warrant to any Person shall be effective if such transfer would, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, require the Company or any of its subsidiaries to become subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act.
 
  (b)   Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.
 
  (c)   Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, that no Warrants for fractional Class A Common Shares shall be given.

11


 

  (d)   Issuance of New Warrants. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of Class A Common Shares underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant which is the same as the Issuance Date unless such Warrant was issued in connection with a transfer, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.
