[NUMBER] |
THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT for value received by Gold Run Inc. (the “Company”) on May 8, 2006 [name & address] (the “Warrantholder”) has the right to purchase in respect of each whole warrant (the “Warrants”) represented by this certificate or by a replacement certificate (in either case this “Warrant Certificate”), at any time up to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on May 8, 2009 (the “Expiry Time”), one fully paid and non-assessable common share (the “Shares” and which term shall include any shares or other securities to be issued in addition thereto or in substitution or replacement therefor as provided herein) of the Company (the “Company”), a company incorporated under the laws of Delaware, as constituted on the date hereof at a purchase price (the “Exercise Price”) of $1.00 per Share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.
The Company agrees that the Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants shall be and be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant Certificate shall have been surrendered and payment made for such Shares as aforesaid.
Nothing contained herein shall confer any right upon the Warrantholder to subscribe for or purchase any Shares at any time after the Expiry Time and from and after the Expiry Time the Warrants and all rights under this Warrant Certificate shall be void and of no value.
The above provisions are subject to the following:
| 1. | Exercise: In the event that the Warrantholder desires to exercise the right to purchase Shares conferred hereby, the Warrantholder shall (a) complete in the manner indicated and execute a subscription form attached as Schedule “A” to this Warrant Certificate, (b) surrender this Warrant Certificate to the Company at 330 Bay Street, Suite 820, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2S8 Canada, and (c) pay the amount payable on the exercise of such Warrants in respect of the Shares subscribed for either in cash or by bank draft or certified check payable to the Company. Upon such surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Warrantholder shall be deemed for all purposes to be the holder of record of the number of Shares to be so issued and the Warrantholder shall be entitled to delivery of a certificate or certificates representing such Shares and the Company shall cause such certificate or certificates to be delivered to the Warrantholder at the address specified in the subscription form within three (3) business days of such surrender and payment as aforesaid. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon any exercise of the Warrants and the Warrantholder shall not be entitled to any cash payment or compensation in lieu of a fractional Share. |
| 2. | Partial Exercise: The Warrantholder may, at any time without notice and from time to time subscribe for and purchase any lesser number of Shares than the number of Shares expressed in this Warrant Certificate. In the event that the Warrantholder subscribes for and purchases any such lesser number of Shares prior to the Expiry Time, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive a replacement certificate representing the unexercised balance of the Warrants. |
| 3. | Not a Shareholder: The holding of the Warrants shall not constitute the Warrantholder a shareholder of the Company or entitle the Warrantholder to any right or interest in respect thereof except as expressly provided in this Warrant Certificate. |
| 4. | Covenants and Representations: The Company hereby represents and warrants that it is authorized to create and issue the Warrants and covenants and agrees that it shall cause the Shares from time to time subscribed for and purchased in the manner provided in this Warrant Certificate and the certificate representing such Shares to be issued and that, at all times prior to the Expiry Time, it shall reserve and there shall remain unissued a sufficient number of Shares to satisfy the right of purchase provided for in this Warrant Certificate. The Company hereby further covenants and agrees that it shall at its expense |
expeditiously use its best efforts to obtain the listing of such Shares (subject to issue or notice of issue) on each stock exchange or over-the-counter market on which the Shares may be listed from time to time. All Shares which are issued upon the exercise of the right of purchase provided in this Warrant Certificate, upon payment therefor of the amount at which such Shares may be purchased pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant Certificate, shall be and be deemed to be fully paid and non-assessable common shares and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Company hereby represents and warrants that this Warrant Certificate is a valid and enforceable obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Certificate.
| 5. | Anti-Dilution Protection: If this Warrant shall be exercised subsequent to any stock dividend, split-up, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of Shares, reorganization or liquidation of the Company occurring after the date hereof, as a result of which shares of any class shall be issued in respect of outstanding Shares of the Company (or shall be issuable in respect to securities convertible into Shares) or upon exercise of rights (other than this Warrant) to purchase Shares or Shares shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes, the Warrantholder exercising this Warrant shall receive, for the aggregate price paid upon such exercise, the aggregate number and class of shares which such Warrantholder would have received thereafter if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the first such stock dividend, split-up, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares, reorganization or liquidation of the Company. |
| 6. | Further Assurances: The Company hereby covenants and agrees that it shall do, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all and every such other act, deed and assurance as the Warrantholder shall reasonably require for the better accomplishing and effectuating of the intentions and provisions of this Warrant Certificate. |
| 7. | Time of Essence: Time shall be of the essence of this Warrant. |
| 8. | Governing Laws: This Warrant shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. |
