Transfer of Warrants or Warrant Shares. (a) Warrants and Warrant Shares Not Registered. The holder of this Warrant, by accepting this Warrant, represents and acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares which may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant are not being registered under the Securities Act on the grounds that the issuance of this Warrant and the offering and sale of such Warrant Shares are exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to one or more exemptions therefrom, including Section 4(2) thereof, and that the Company's reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the initial Warrantholder's representations and agreements made to and with the Company in the Securities Purchase Agreement dated on or about the date hereof. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant and the related Warrant Shares shall not be transferable except upon the conditions specified in this Section 7, which conditions are intended, among other things, to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws in respect of the transfer of this Warrant or of such Warrant Shares. (b) Notice of Intention to Transfer; Opinion of Counsel. The holder of this Warrant, by accepting this Warrant, agrees that prior to any transfer of this Warrant or any transfer of the related Warrant Shares, such holder will (i) give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, and (ii) deliver to the Company (A) an opinion of counsel for the Company or an opinion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Company, of counsel skilled in securities matters (selected by such holder and reasonably satisfactory to the Company) as to the absence of the necessity of registration under the Securities Act, or (B) an interpretative letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission to the effect that the proposed transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act, in either case accompanied by evidence that such transfer will also be in compliance with applicable state securities ("blue sky") laws; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to any Warrant or Warrant Shares as to which there is a registration statement in effect under the Securities Act at the time of the proposed transfer. By accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder agrees to indemnify the Company and hold it harmless from and against all damages, losses, liabilities (including liability for rescission), costs and expenses which the Company may incur under the Securities Act or otherwise by reason of any misrepresentation by the Warrantholder of facts concerning it or any proposed transfer of the Warrants and/or Warrant Shares with respect to the availability of any exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Section 8. Adjustment of Number of Shares and Purchase Price. (a) Adjustments for Distributions, Divisions or Consolidation or Combination of Shares. In the event of any increase or decrease in the number of shares of issued Series A Preferred Stock by reason of a distribution, division or consolidation or combination of such Shares at any time or from time to time after the date hereof such that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have had an adjustment made, without payment therefor, in the number of - 5 - shares of Series A Preferred Stock owned by them or, on or after any record date fixed for the determination of eligible holders, shall have become entitled or required to have had an adjustment made in the number of Series A Preferred Stock owned by them, without payment therefor, there shall be a corresponding adjustment as to the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock covered by this Warrant (and to the Purchase Price for each Warrant Share under this Warrant) with the result that the Warrantholder's proportionate interest in the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be maintained as before the occurrence of such event without change in the aggregate Purchase Price set forth in said Warrant. (b) Adjustments for Recapitalization, Reclassification, Reorganization or Other Like Capital Transactions or for Merger and Consolidation. In the event the Company (or any other corporation or other entity the securities of which are receivable at the time upon exercise of the Warrant) shall effect a plan of recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or other like capital transaction or shall merge or consolidate with or into another entity or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another entity at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof, then in each such case the Warrantholder upon the exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of such recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or other like capital transaction or of such merger, consolidation or conveyance shall be entitled to receive (in lieu of the securities or other property to which such holder would have been entitled to receive upon exercise prior to such consummation), the securities or other property to which the Warrantholder would have been entitled to have received upon consummation of the subject transaction if the holder hereof had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such consummation without adjustment to the aggregate Purchase Price set forth in said Warrant and all subject to further adjustment pursuant to Section 8(a) hereof. Section 9. Elimination of Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, nor shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction to the nearest whole number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock or other securities, properties or rights receivable upon exercise of this Warrant. Section 10. Special Agreements of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees that: (a) Reservation of Shares. The Company will reserve and set apart and have at all times, free from preemptive rights, a number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and it will have at all times any other rights or privileges sufficient to enable it at any time to fulfill all of its obligations hereunder. (b) Avoidance of Certain Actions. The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, issue or sale of securities or otherwise, avoid or take any action which would have the effect of avoiding the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in - 6 - carrying out all of the provisions of this Warrant and in taking all of such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Warrantholder against impairment. (c) Successors. This Warrant shall be binding upon any corporation or other entity succeeding to the Company by merger or consolidation, and the Company will not enter into any such transaction without obtaining the written agreement of any such successor to be bound by the terms of this Warrant as if it were the issuer hereof. Section 11. Notifications by the Company. In case at any time: (a) the Company shall propose to make any distribution to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock; (b) the Company shall make an offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Series A Preferred Stock of any additional securities of the Company; (c) there shall be any reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, sale of assets, equity financing or other transaction which would result in any obligation of the Company to redeem outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or to make a distribution to holders of Series A Preferred Stock; then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give written notice to Warrantholder of the date on which (i) the books of the Company shall close, or a record shall be taken for such distribution or subscription rights, or (ii) such reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, sale of assets, equity financing or other transaction shall take place, as the case may be. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall participate in such distribution or subscription rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their Series A Preferred Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon any such reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, sale of assets, equity financing or other transaction, as the case may be.
