NEOMAGIC CORPORATION
Issue Date: August 20, 2004 |
| Warrant No. 2004-1B |
THIS CERTIFIES that SATELLITE STRATEGIC FINANCE ASSOCIATES, LLC or any subsequent holder hereof (the Holder), has the right to purchase from NEOMAGIC CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the Company), up to 1,000,000 fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the Common Stock), subject to adjustment as provided herein, at a price per share equal to the Exercise Price (as defined below), at any time and from time to time beginning on the date that this Warrant is originally issued (the Issue Date) and ending at 6:00 p.m., eastern time, on the date that is the ninetieth (90th) day following the Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) or, if such date is not a Business Day, then on the Business Day immediately following such date (the Expiration Date). This Warrant is issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 19, 2004 (the Securities Purchase Agreement). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
1. Exercise.
(a) Right to Exercise; Exercise Price. The Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant at any time and from time to time during the period beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the Expiration Date as to all or any part of the shares of Common Stock covered hereby (the Warrant Shares). The Exercise Price for each Warrant Share purchased by the Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be equal to $1.60, subject to adjustment for the events specified in Section 6 below.
(b) Exercise Notice. In order to exercise this Warrant, the Holder shall send by facsimile transmission, at any time prior to 6:00 p.m., eastern time, on the Business Day on which the Holder wishes to effect such exercise (the Exercise Date), to the Company an executed copy of the notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the Exercise Notice), and a copy of the original Warrant, and, in the case of a Cash Exercise (as defined below), shall forward to the Company the Exercise Price. The Exercise Notice shall also state the name or names (with address) in which the shares of Common Stock that are issuable on such exercise shall be issued. In the case of a dispute as to the calculation of the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder (including, without limitation, the calculation of any adjustment pursuant to Section 6 below), the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and shall submit the disputed calculations to a certified public accounting firm of national recognition (other than the Companys independent accountants) within two (2) Business Days following the date on which the Exercise Notice is delivered to the Company. The Company shall cause such accountant to calculate the Exercise Price and/or the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder and to notify the Company and the Holder of the results in writing no later than three (3) Business Days following the day on which such accountant received the disputed calculations (the Dispute Procedure). Such accountants calculation shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error. The fees of any such accountant shall be borne by the party whose calculations were most at variance with those of such accountant.
(c) Holder of Record. The Holder shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares specified in an Exercise Notice on the Exercise Date specified therein, irrespective of the date of delivery of such Warrant Shares. Except as specifically provided herein, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof any rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the Exercise Date.
(d) Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon its exercise and, if this Warrant is exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time that it delivers Warrant Shares to the Holder pursuant to such exercise as provided herein, issue a new warrant, and deliver to the Holder a certificate representing such new warrant, with terms identical in all respects to this Warrant (except that such new warrant shall be exercisable into the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant shall remain unexercised); provided, however, that the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all or any portion of such new warrant at any time following the time at which this Warrant is exercised, regardless of whether the Company has actually issued such new warrant or delivered to the Holder a certificate therefor.
2
2. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. Upon receipt of an Exercise Notice pursuant to Section 1 above, the Company shall, (A) in the case of a Cash Exercise no later than the close of business on the later to occur of (i) the third (3rd) Business Day following the Exercise Date set forth in such Exercise Notice and (ii) such later date on which the Company shall have received payment of the Exercise Price, (B) in the case of a Cashless Exercise (as defined below), no later than the close of business on the third (3rd) Business Day following the Exercise Date set forth in such Exercise Notice, and (C) with respect to Warrant Shares that are the subject of a Dispute Procedure, the close of business on the third (3rd) Business Day following the determination made pursuant to Section 1(b) (each of the dates specified in (A), (B) or (C) being referred to as a Delivery Date), issue and deliver or caused to be delivered to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares as shall be determined as provided herein. As long as the Companys transfer agent (Transfer Agent) participates in the Depository Trust Company (DTC) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program (FAST), and except as otherwise provided in the next following sentence of this Section 2, the Company shall effect delivery of Warrant Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder or its nominee at DTC (as specified in the applicable Exercise Notice) with the number of Warrant Shares required to be delivered, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date. In the event that the Transfer Agent is not a participant in FAST, or if the Warrant Shares are not otherwise eligible for delivery through FAST, or if the Holder so specifies in an Exercise Notice or otherwise in writing on or before the Exercise Date, the Company shall effect delivery of Warrant Shares by delivering to the Holder or its nominee physical certificates representing such Warrant Shares, no later than the close of business on such Delivery Date.
3. Failure to Deliver Warrant Shares.
(a) In the event that the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Exercise Notice on or before the Delivery Date therefor (an Exercise Default), the Company shall pay to the Holder payments (Exercise Default Payments) in the amount of (i) (N/365) multiplied by (ii) the aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrant Shares which are the subject of such Exercise Default multiplied by (iii) the lower of fifteen percent (15%) and the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the Default Interest Rate), where N equals the number of days elapsed between the original Delivery Date of such Warrant Shares and the date on which all of such Warrant Shares are issued and delivered to the Holder. Cash amounts payable hereunder shall be paid on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day of each calendar month following the calendar month in which such amount has accrued.
(b) In the event of an Exercise Default, the Holder may, upon written notice to the Company (an Exercise Default Notice), regain on the date of such notice the rights of the Holder under the exercised portion of this Warrant that is the subject of such Exercise Default, in which case the Exercise Price upon any subsequent exercise of such portion of this Warrant will be equal to the lesser of (x) the lowest Exercise Price occurring during the period beginning on related Delivery Date and ending on the date on which the Exercise Default Notice is delivered to the Company and (y) the Exercise Price in effect on the applicable Exercise Date (it being understood that the Holder may deliver an Exercise Notice at any time following delivery of an Exercise Default Notice to the Company). In such event, the Holder shall retain all of the Holders rights
3
and remedies with respect to the Companys failure to deliver such Warrant Shares (including without limitation the right to receive the cash payments specified in Section 3(a) above).
(c) The Holders rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative, and no right or remedy is exclusive of any other. In addition to the amounts specified herein, the Holder shall have the right to pursue all other remedies available to it at law or in equity (including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief). Nothing herein shall limit the Holders right to pursue actual damages for the Companys failure to issue and deliver Warrant Shares on the applicable Delivery Date (including, without limitation, damages relating to any purchase of Common Stock by the Holder to make delivery on a sale effected in anticipation of receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise, such damages to be in an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount paid by the Holder for the Common Stock so purchased minus (B) the aggregate amount of net proceeds, if any, received by the Holder from the sale of the Warrant Shares issued by the Company pursuant to such exercise).
4. Exercise Limitations. In no event shall a Holder be permitted to exercise this Warrant, or part hereof, if, upon such exercise, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder (other than shares which would otherwise be deemed beneficially owned except for being subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 4), would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding. As used herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4 applies, the submission of an Exercise Notice by the Holder shall be deemed to be the Holders representation that this Warrant is exercisable pursuant to the terms hereof and the Company shall be entitled to rely on such representation without making any further inquiry as to whether this Section 4 applies. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a Holder to exercise this Warrant, or part thereof, at such time as such exercise will not violate the provisions of this Section 4(a). This Section 4 may not be amended unless such amendment is approved by the holders of a majority of the Common Stock then outstanding; provided, however, that the limitations contained in this Section 4(a) shall cease to apply (x) upon sixty (60) days prior written notice from the Holder to the Company, or (y) immediately upon written notice from the Holder to the Company at any time after the public announcement or other disclosure of a Major Transaction (as defined below).
5. Payment of the Exercise Price; Cashless Exercise. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in either of the following forms or, at the election of Holder, a combination thereof:
(a) through a cash exercise (a Cash Exercise) by delivering immediately available funds, or
(b) through a cashless exercise (a Cashless Exercise), as hereinafter provided. The Holder may effect a Cashless Exercise by surrendering this Warrant to the Company and noting on the Exercise Notice that the Holder wishes to effect a Cashless Exercise, upon which the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:
4
X = Y x (A-B)/A
where: X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;
Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised;
A = the Market Price (as defined in the Certificate) as of the Exercise Date; and
B = the Exercise Price.
For purposes of Rule 144, it is intended and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares required by Rule 144 shall be deemed to have been commenced, on the Issue Date.
6. Anti-Dilution Adjustments; Distributions; Other Events. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 6. In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price required herein results in a fraction of a cent, the Exercise Price shall be rounded up or down to the nearest one hundredth of a cent.
(a) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company, at any time after the Issue Date, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then effective upon the close of business on the record date for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company, at any time after the Issue Date, combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then, effective upon the close of business on the record date for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionally increased.
(b) Distributions. If the Company shall declare or make any distribution of cash or any other assets (or rights to acquire such assets) to holders of Common Stock, as a partial liquidating dividend or otherwise, including without limitation any dividend or distribution to the Companys stockholders in shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary) (a Distribution), the Company shall deliver written notice of such Distribution (a Distribution Notice) to the Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to the earlier to occur of (i) the record date for determining stockholders entitled to such Distribution (the Record Date) and (ii) the date on which such Distribution is made (the Distribution Date). In the Distribution Notice to a Holder, the Company must indicate whether the Company has elected (A) to deliver to such Holder the same amount and type of assets being distributed in such Distribution as though the Holder were a holder on the Determination Date therefor of a number of shares of Common
5
Stock into which the this Warrant is exercisable as of such Determination Date (such number of shares to be determined at the Exercise Price then in effect and without giving effect to any limitations on such exercise) or (B) to reduce the Exercise Price as of the Determination Date therefor by an amount equal to the fair market value of the assets to be distributed divided by the number of shares of Common Stock as to which such Distribution is to be made, such fair market value to be reasonably determined in good faith by the independent members of the Companys Board of Directors. If the Company does not notify the Holders of its election pursuant to the preceding sentence on or prior to the Determination Date, the Company shall be deemed to have elected clause (A) of the preceding sentence.
(c) Major Transactions. In the event of a merger, consolidation, business combination, tender offer, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, redemption or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities or other assets of the Company or another entity or the Company shall sell all or substantially all of its assets (each of the foregoing being a Major Transaction), the Company will give the Holder at least thirty (30) days written notice prior to the earlier of (I) the closing or effectiveness of such Major Transaction and (II) the record date for the receipt of such shares of stock or securities or other assets, and: (i) the Holder shall be permitted to exercise this Warrant in whole or in part at any time prior to the record date for the receipt of such shares of stock or securities or other assets and shall be entitled to receive, for each share of Common Stock issuable to Holder for such exercise, the same per share consideration payable to the other holders of Common Stock in connection with such Major Transaction, and (ii) if and to the extent that the Holder retains any portion of this Warrant following such record date, the Company will cause the surviving or, in the event of a sale of assets, purchasing entity, as a condition precedent to such Major Transaction, to assume the obligations of the Company under this Warrant, with such adjustments to the Exercise Price and the securities covered hereby as may be necessary in order to preserve the economic benefits of this Warrant to the Holder.
(d) Adjustments; Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder of this Warrant shall, upon exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 6. Any adjustment made herein that results in a decrease in the Exercise Price shall also effect a proportional increase in the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant is exercisable.
7. Fractional Interests.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, but on exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If, on exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof would be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any such fractional share, pay to
6
the Holder an amount in cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying such fraction by the Market Price as of the Exercise Date.
8. Transfer of this Warrant.
The Holder may sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part, as long as such sale or other disposition is made pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Upon such transfer or other disposition, the Holder shall deliver this Warrant to the Company together with a written notice to the Company, substantially in the form of the Transfer Notice attached hereto as Exhibit B (the Transfer Notice), indicating the person or persons to whom this Warrant shall be transferred and, if less than all of this Warrant is transferred, the number of Warrant Shares to be covered by the part of this Warrant to be transferred to each such person. Within three (3) Business Days of receiving a Transfer Notice and the original of this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to the each transferee designated by the Holder a Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and terms for the appropriate number of Warrant Shares and, if less than all this Warrant is transferred, shall deliver to the Holder a Warrant for the remaining number of Warrant Shares.
9. Benefits of this Warrant.
This Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Holder of this Warrant and nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon any person other than the Holder of this Warrant any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim hereunder.
10. Loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of Warrant.
Upon receipt by the Company of evidence of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and upon surrender of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.
11. Notice or Demands.
Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by the Company or the Holder pursuant to the terms of this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission, unless such delivery is made on a day that is not a Business Day, in which case such delivery will be deemed to be made on the next succeeding Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day after timely delivery to an overnight courier and (iii) on the Business Day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed as follows:
