(b)           Right to Convert Warrant into Stock: Net Issuance.

 

(i)            Net Issuance Right. In addition to and without limiting the rights of the Holder under the terms of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the “Net Issuance Right”) into shares of Applicable Stock as provided in this Section 3(b) at any time or from time to time during the term of this Warrant. Upon exercise of the Net Issuance Right with respect to a particular number of shares subject to this Warrant (the “Converted Warrant Shares”), the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any exercise price or any cash or other consideration) that number of shares of fully paid and nonassessable Applicable Stock as is determined according to the following formula:

 

X= A - B

 

 

 

        Y

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where:

X =

 

the number of shares of Applicable Stock that shall be issued to Holder

 

 

 

 

 

Y =

 

the fair market value of one share of Applicable Stock

 

 

 

 

 

A =

 

the aggregate fair market value of the specified number of Converted Warrant Shares (i.e., the number of Converted Warrant Shares multiplied by the fair market value of one Converted Warrant Share)

 

 

 

 

 

B =

 

the aggregate Exercise Price of the specified number of Converted Warrant Shares immediately prior to the exercise of the Net Issuance Right (i.e., the number of Converted Warrant Shares multiplied by the Exercise Price)

 

No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Net Issuance Right, and, if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting fractional share on the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of Section 10 of this Warrant, shares issued pursuant to the Net Issuance Right shall be treated as if they were issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

(ii)           Exercise of Net Issuance Right. The Net issuance Right may be exercised by the Holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with a written statement (substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A or Exhibit B) specifying that the Holder thereby intends to exercise the Net Issuance Right and indicating the number of shares subject to this Warrant which are being surrendered (referred to in Section 3(b)(i) hereof as the Converted Warrant Shares) in exercise of the Net Issuance Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement, or on such later date as is specified therein (the “Conversion Date”), and, at the election of the Holder, may be made contingent upon the closing of the sale of the Company’s Common Stock to the public in a public offering (a “Public Offering”) pursuant to a Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, amended (the “Act”). Certificates for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Net Issuance Right and, if applicable, a new warrant evidencing the balance of the shares remaining subject to this Warrant, shall be issued as of the Conversion Date and shall be delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time following the Conversion Date.

 

(iii)          Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 3(b), “fair market value” of a share of Applicable Stock (which shall be Common Stock if the Applicable Stock has been converted into Common Stock) as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean:

 

(1)           If the Net Issuance Right is exercised in connection with and contingent upon a Public Offering, and if the Company’s Registration Statement relating to such Public Offering (“Registration Statement”) has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, then the initial “price to the public” specified in the final prospectus with respect to such offering.

 

(2)           If the Net Issuance Right is not exercised in connection with and contingent upon a Public Offering, then as follows:

 

(A)          If traded on a securities exchange, then the fair market value shall be the average of the closing prices of the Common Stock on such exchange over the five trading days immediately prior to the Determination Date;

 

3



 

(B)           If traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market or other over-the-counter system, then the fair market value shall be the average of the closing bid prices of the Common Stock over the five trading days immediately prior to the Determination Date; and

 

(C)           If there is no public market, then fair market value shall be determined by the Board of Directors in good faith.

 

In making a determination under clauses (A) or (B) above, if on the Determination Date, five trading days have not passed since the Company’s Initial Public Offering then the fair market value of the Common Stock shall be the average closing prices or closing bid prices, as applicable, for the shorter period beginning on and including the date of the Initial Public Offering and ending on the trading day prior to the Determination Date (or if such period includes only one trading day the closing price or closing bid price, as applicable, for soda trading day). If closing prices or closing bid prices are no longer reported by a securities exchange or other trading system, the closing price or closing bid price shall be that which is reported by such securities exchange or other trading system at 4:00 p.m. New York City time on the applicable trading day.

 

(c)           Exercise Prior to Expiration. To the extent this Warrant is not previously exercised as to all of the Shares subject hereto, and if the fair market value of one share of the Applicable Stock is greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, this Warrant shall be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to Section 3(b) (even if not surrendered) immediately before its expiration, including but not limited to expiration pursuant to clause (b) of Section 2. For purposes of such automatic exercise, the fair market value of one share of the Applicable Stock upon such expiration shell be determined pursuant to Section 3(b)(iii). To the extent this Warrant or any portion thereof is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this Section 3(c), the Company agrees to promptly notify the Holder of the number of Shares, if any, the Holder is to receive by reason of such automatic exercise.

 

4.             Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. All Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance pursuant to the terms and conditions herein, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all preemptive rights and taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of the issue upon exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of its Applicable Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant and, while the Applicable Stock is convertible preferred stock, a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the conversion of the Applicable Stock into Common Stock.

 

5.             Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:

 

(a)           Reclassification or Merger. In case of any reclassification or change of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any merger of the Company with or into another entity (other than a merger with another entity in which the Company is the acquiring and the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall duty execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder), or the Company shall make appropriate provision without the issuance of a new Warrant, so that the Holder shall have the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, at a total purchase price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Applicable Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change, merger or sale by a holder of the number of shares of Applicable Stock then purchasable under this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 5(a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, mergers and sales.

 

(b)           Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its outstanding shares of Applicable Stock, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased and the number of Shares issuable hereunder shall be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares issuable hereunder shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a combination.

 

4



 

(c)           Stock Dividends and Other Distributions. If the Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall (i) pay a dividend with respect to Applicable Stock payable in Applicable Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Applicable Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Applicable Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution; or (ii) make any other distribution with respect to Applicable Stock (except any distribution specifically provided for in Sections 5(a) and 5(b)), then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company such that the Holder shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant a proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution as though it were the holder of the Applicable Stock as of the record date axed for the determination of the shareholders of the Company entitled to receive such dividend or distribution.

 

(d)           Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the Exercise Price, the number of Shares of Applicable Stock purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Shares purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment in the Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately thereafter.

 

(e)           Antidilution Rights. The other antidilution rights applicable to the Shares of Applicable Stock purchasable hereunder are set forth in the Company’s Certificate of incorporation, as amended through the Warrant Date, a true and complete copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Charter”). The Company shall promptly provide the Holder with any restatement, amendment, modification or waiver of the Charter promptly after the same has been made.

 

In each case of adjustment pursuant to this Section 5, such adjustment shall not be made with respect to the events set forth in Section 2 above.

 

6.             Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Exercise Price and the number of Shares purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder. In addition, whenever the conversion price or conversion ratio of the Applicable Stock shall be adjusted, the Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the conversion price or ratio of the Applicable Stock after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder.

 

7.             Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Applicable Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based on the fair market value of the Applicable Stock on the date of exercise as reasonably determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

8.             Compliance with Act; Disposition of Warrant or Shares of Applicable Stock.

 

(a)           Compliance with Act. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, and the shares of Applicable Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof and any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof are being acquired solely for its own account for investment and not with a view to or for sale or distribution of this Warrant or the shares of Applicable Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof or any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof. Moreover, the Holder agrees that it will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, or any shares of Applicable Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof or any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the Act or any applicable state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, unless the Shares being acquired are registered under the Act and any applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available, the Holder shall confirm in writing that the shares of Applicable Stock so purchased (and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof) are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale in violation of the Act and shall confirm such other matters related thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Company. This Warrant and all shares of Applicable Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant (unless registered under the Act and any applicable state securities laws) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(b)           Disposition of Warrant or Shares. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Warrant or any shares of Applicable Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant prior to registration of such Warrant or shares, the Holder agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing in detail the manner and circumstances surrounding thereof, together with a written opinion of counsel, if requested by the Company, or other evidence, if reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the Act as then in effect or any federal or state securities law then in effect) of this Warrant or such shares of Applicable Stock and indicating whether or not under the Act certificates for this Warrant or such shares of Applicable Stock to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with such law. Upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion or other evidence, the Company shall, no later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of the written notice, notify the Holder that the Holder may sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or such shares of Applicable Stock, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company, if a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 8(b) that the opinion of counsel or other evidence is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Holder promptly with details thereof after such determination has been made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Warrant or such shares of Applicable Stock may, as to such federal laws, be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 or 144A under the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such information as the Company may reasonably request to provide a reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 or 144A have been satisfied. Each certificate representing this Warrant or the shares of Applicable Stock thus transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144 or I44A) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with such laws, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel for the Holder, such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with such laws. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. Additionally, the Holder may dispose of all or any part of this Warrant or the shares of Applicable Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant if the Company shall have received a letter secured by the Holder from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) stating no action will be recommended to the Commission with respect to the proposed disposition.

 

(c)           Applicability of Restrictions. Neither any restrictions of any legend described in this Warrant nor the requirements of Section 8(b) above shall apply to any transfer of, or grant of a security interest in, this Warrant (or the Applicable Stock or Common Stock obtainable upon exercise thereof) or any part hereof (i) to a partner of the Holder if the Holder is a partnership or to a member of or other holder of an interest in the Holder if the Holder is a limited liability company, (ii) to a partnership of which the Holder is a partner or to a limited liability company of which the Holder Is a member or other holder of an interest, or (iii) to any affiliate of the Holder if the Holder is a corporation; provided, however, in any such transfer, if applicable, the transferee shall on the Company’s request agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Warrant as if an original holder hereof.
