IN ADDITION, THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED, OR BE THE SUBJECT OF ANY HEDGING, SHORT SALE, DERIVATIVE, PUT, OR CALL TRANSACTION THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE EFFECTIVE ECONOMIC DISPOSITION OF SUCH SECURITIES BY ANY PERSON, UNTIL DECEMBER 10, 2010, EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH FINRA RULE 5110(G)(2).

 

 

(hereinafter called the “Holder,” which term shall include the Holder’s legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns) by China Swine Genetics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”).  This Warrant may be transferred by the Holder only in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.

 

1.           Exercise of Warrant.  (a) For value received by the Company from the offering of preferred stock and warrants (the “Offering”), and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Holder is entitled, upon surrender of this Warrant, (with the exercise notice form annexed hereto (the “Exercise Notice”) duly executed) at the office of the Company at 077 Ala Napunani Street, Honolulu, HI, or such other office in the United States of which the Company shall notify the Holder hereof in writing, to purchase ________ shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 (“Common Stock”) at an exercise price o f $4.10 per share (the “Exercise Price”). This Warrant may be exercised by presentation and surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive offices with a written notice of the holder's intention to effect a Net Exercise, including a calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise in accordance with the terms hereof (a “Net Exercise”).  In the event of a Net Exercise, in lieu of paying the Exercise Price in cash, the holder shall surrender this Warrant for that number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares to which it would otherwise be entitled by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the difference between the then current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and the Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the then current Market Price per share of Common Stock. For example, if the holder is exercising 100,000 Warrants with a per Warrant exercise price of $0.20 per share through a Net Exercise when the Common Stock's current Market Price per share is $0.40 per share, then upon such Net Exercise the holder will receive 50,000 shares of Common Stock.  Market Price shall be defined as the average closing bid price for the three days prior to exercise. This Warrant shall have a term of five years from issuance.

 

2.           Issuance of Stock Certificates.  As promptly as practicable after surrender of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the Common Stock, in certificates of such denominations and in such names as the Holder may specify.

 

3.           Payment of Applicable Exercise Price.  If  the Holder does not utilize the “Net Exercise” provision in Paragraph 1, above, payment of the Exercise Price shall be made by check made payable to the order of the Company or wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by the Company.

 

4.           Adjustment for Dividends, Distributions, Subdivisions, Combinations, Mergers, Consolidations or Sale of Assets.

(a) During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issue upon exercise of the rights evidenced hereby, a sufficient number of shares of the class of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant to provide for the exercise of such rights.  All securities which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.  Upon surrender for exercise, this Warrant shall be canceled and shall not be reissued; provided, however, that upon the partial exercise hereof a substitute Warrant of like tenor and date representing the rights to subscribe for and purchase any such unexercised portion hereof shall be issued.

 

(b) Provided that the Common Stock underlying the Warrants have not been registered, if at any time after the date hereof the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the 1933 Act (other than by a registration in connection with an acquisition in a manner which would not permit registration of the securities for sale to the public, or a registration on Form S-8, or any successor form thereto, or a registration on Form S-4, or any successor form thereto) then the Company will at such time give prompt written notice to the Holder of its intention to do so.

7.           No Change Necessary.  The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment in the Applicable Exercise Price or in the number of shares issuable upon its exercise.  A Warrant issued after any adjustment or any partial exercise or upon replacement may continue to express the same Exercise Price and the same number of shares (appropriately reduced in the case of partial exercise) as are stated on this Warrant as initially issued, and that Exercise Price and that number of shares shall be considered to have been so changed as of the close of business on the date of adjustment.

10.           Transfer Restrictions.  This Warrant shall not be transferable by the Holder and shall be exercisable only by the Holder.  Without the prior written consent of the Company, the Warrant shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.  Any attempted transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Warrant or of any rights granted hereunder contrary to the provisions of this Section 10, or the levy of any attachment or similar process upon the Warrant or such rights, shall be null and void.

 

11.           Taxes.  The Company makes no representation about tax treatment to the Holder with respect to receipt or exercise of the Warrant or acquiring, holding or disposing of the Common Stock, and the Holder represents that the Holder has had the opportunity to discuss such treatment with the Holder’s tax advisers.

 

12.           Remedies.  Each party stipulates that the remedies at law in the event of any default or threatened default by the other party in the performance or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are and shall not be adequate, and that such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for that specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.
