Notwithstanding the foregoing conversion price terms (or the exercise price terms of the warrants described in 3.2 below), in the event that Lender fails to provide the total agreed funding aggregating $750,000, any Note issued hereunder shall automatically and without further action by either party be deemed amended to substitute a fixed conversion price of $0.75 per share, and any warrant attached to such Note as described below in 3.2 will automatically be deemed amended to substitute a fixed exercise price of $1.00 per share.
 
3.2  
The Warrants. The Company has duly authorized and will issue to the Lender concurrently with each incremental closing (being the date of advance of funds under each separate Note) common stock purchase warrants aggregating 625,000 shares each, at an exercise price of $0.80 per share. Additionally, the Company has authorized and agreed to issue conditionally to the Lender a common stock purchase warrant to acquire an aggregate 1,875,000 shares at an exercise price of $1.00, in the event that, but only in the event that: (i) Lender has fulfilled its commitment to advance an aggregate $750,000, and (ii) the Company has requested and Lender has concurrently released pursuant to the Company’s request, Lender’s Collateral pledged hereunder to secure the loans evidenced by the Notes as an accommodation for purposes described in Section 2 above. In the event that such conditional warrant is required to be issued, it shall be dated on the date Lender effectively releases Lender’s security interest in the Collateral and will be exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time during the period commencing on the date of issuance thereof and ending on the fifth (5th) consecutive anniversary of the Closing Date.

SMART MOVE, INC.
12% Secured Convertible Note (“Note”)
Due April [May]  _____  , 2011
Smart Move, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Maker” or the “Company”), for value received, promises to pay to the order of Thomas P. Grainger, an individual residing in the State of Wyoming whose address is Post Office Box 7 Saratoga, WY 82331 (the “Holder”), the principal sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand ($250,000) Dollars with an annualized rate of interest from the date hereof of twelve percent (12%) per annum until maturity. Interest shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of July, October, January and April of each year and at the Maturity Date or upon any prepayment or acceleration of the maturity of this Note. Such interest payments shall be made in cash or, subject to the Company’s right in its sole discretion with respect to all interest that accrues and becomes payable during the initial twelve (12) months after the date of this Note, to pay such interest by means of the issuance of a number of shares of restricted common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company to the Holder corresponding to an aggregate market value that is 110% of the amount of interest otherwise payable in cash. The market value of such shares shall be established by the five day average closing price for a share of the common stock of the Company through and including the five trading days immediately prior to the date on which the quarterly interest payment is due. Maker may at any time or from time to time, upon giving Holder at least thirty (30) days advance written notice of Maker’s intention to do so, make a voluntary prepayment, whether in full or in part, of this Note, without premium or penalty.

1.  
NOTE
This Note in the principal amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand ($250,000) Dollars is being issued to evidence indebtedness of the Company to the Holder pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of that certain Operating Loan and Security Agreement dated April  _____  , 2008. This Note is secured by a security interest granted to the Holder in and to the following specific equipment:
Five hundred (500) existing proprietary shipping containers (“Smart Vaults™”) used to transport household goods and other goods, and manufactured by Orbis Corporation (“Collateral”).
2.  
CONVERSION AT OPTION OF HOLDER; AUTOMATIC CONVERSION
  A.  
Conversion at Option of Holder. The Holder shall have the right (the “Conversion Right”) at any time or from time to time prior to the day this Note is paid in full, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note as shall remain unpaid at the effective date of the conversion, into, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share, at a conversion price of $0.40 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Right may be exercised notwithstanding Maker’s issuance of a notice of intention to make a voluntary prepayment, and the effective date of an elective conversion is the date of Holder’s delivery of a “Conversion Notice” in the form attached hereto.
 
  B.  
Automatic Conversion. The Note will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common stock on the date when closing bid price of a share of the Company’s common stock equals $3.75 per share or greater for twenty (20) of thirty (30) consecutive trading days on the American Stock Exchange, provided that the underlying shares have either been registered for resale by the holders of the securities or are eligible to be sold under and subject to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933.
 
  C.  
Mechanics of Conversion. The Holder shall effect any elective conversions by delivering to the Company a completed notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A” (a “Conversion Notice”). Unless the Holder is converting the entire principal amount outstanding under this Note or an Automatic Conversion has occurred, the Holder is not required to physically surrender this Note to the Company in order to effect conversions. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon paid in equity securities in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount converted and the date of such conversions and will promptly notify Holder if an Automatic Conversion occurs. Upon conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note and any accrued, unpaid interest, whether in connection with a conversion at the option of Holder pursuant to exercise of the Conversion Right or pursuant to an Automatic Conversion, this Note shall be surrendered by the Holder to the Company for cancellation and a certificate representing the Common Stock issued to Holder therefor shall be delivered to Holder. No fractional shares or scrip shall be issued upon any conversion of this Note. Instead of any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to that fractional interest of the Conversion Price at which the Note was converted.

 

15


 

3.  
RESERVATION OF AUTHORIZED SHARES; EFFECT OF RECAPITALIZATION
  A.  
Reservation of Authorized Shares. The Company agrees and represents that until this Note is paid in full or converted, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Company further agrees and represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and that the Company will instruct its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note.
 
  B.  
Effect of Capital Reorganization or Reclassification. If the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be increased or decreased as a result of a stock split, a reverse stock split or similar recapitalization or reclassification of stock not involving any change in the shareholder’s equity or the aggregate market value of shares outstanding as a result thereof, the per share Conversion Price shall be proportionately adjusted so that the percentage of the Common Stock acquirable by the Holder upon conversion immediately prior to the event and immediately following the event remains the same.
4.  
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
A default shall be defined as one or more of the following events (“Event of Default”) occurring and continuing:
  (a)  
The Maker shall fail to pay any interest payment on this Note when due for a period of thirty (30) days after notice of such default has been sent by the Holder to the Maker.
 
  (b)  
The Maker shall dissolve or terminate the existence of the Maker.
 
  (c)  
The Maker shall file a petition in bankruptcy, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of a receiver for all or substantially all of its property, or a petition for the appointment of a receiver shall be filed against the Maker and remain unstayed for at least ninety (90) days.
 
  (d)  
If the Company issues any new securities to any investor other than to the Holder or to Professional Offshore Opportunity Fund, Ltd. (and its co-investors) under January 2008 notes convertible into shares of its common stock, $0.0001 par value, at a conversion price which is below $0.32 per share (adjusted to reflect any stock splits or recapitalization transactions) such issuance will constitute an Event of Default hereunder unless the Company in its discretion adjusts the conversion price hereunder or other terms hereof acceptable to the Holder.

 

16


 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Holder of this Note may, by written notice to the Maker given by certified mail, return receipt requested, declare the unpaid principal amount and all accrued interest of the Note immediately due and payable.
5.  
SECURITY FOR PAYMENT OF THE NOTE(S)
This Note is secured by a security interest granted to the Holder as described in that certain Operating Loan and Security Agreement dated April  _____  , 2008, covering the Collateral therein described.
6.  
EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE NOTE
The Effective Date of this Note for purposes of its status as a binding legal obligation of the Maker is the date hereof, which is also the date on which funds have been advanced by the Holder and after which interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance hereof.
7.  
STATUS OF HOLDER
The Maker may treat the Holder of this Note as the absolute owner of this Note for the purpose of making payments of principal or interest and for all other purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, unless the Maker so consents in writing.
8.

The number of Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price per Share shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in Section 4 below if the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be increased or decreased as a result of a stock split, a reverse stock split or similar recapitalization or reclassification of stock not involving any change in the shareholder’s equity or the aggregate market value of shares outstanding as a result thereof,
SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS.
In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, the terms set forth on the Definitions Schedule to this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth on such Schedule.

 

21


 

SECTION 2. COVERED SHARES; EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
Subject to the conditions set forth in this Warrant, the Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part during the Exercise Period, but in no event subsequent to the end of the Exercise Period, by the surrender of the Warrant (with the subscription form attached to this Warrant duly completed and executed) at the principal office of the Company at 5990 Greenwood Plaza Blvd, Suite 390, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111, and upon payment of the applicable Exercise Price in cash or other immediately available funds. At the option of the exercising Holder, payment may be made by (a) cash or other immediately available funds.
The right granted by the Warrant to acquire Shares shall expire at the end of the Exercise Period, and such right shall be wholly null and void to the extent the Warrant is not exercised before that time. The Company shall pay all reasonable expenses, taxes and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of any certificates or other documents evidencing the Shares under this §2. Notwithstanding the surrender of the Warrant upon its exercise, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Holders as set forth in this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect.
SECTION 3. RESERVATION.
At all times during the Exercise Period, the Company shall reserve and keep available the maximum number of authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuing, upon the exercise of the Warrant, a number of Shares equal to the number of Underlying Shares.
SECTION 4. ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES.
The number of Warrant Shares and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment if the number of outstanding Shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be increased or decreased as a result of a stock split, a reverse stock split or similar recapitalization or reclassification of stock not involving any change in the shareholder’s equity or the aggregate market value of shares outstanding as a result thereof. The Warrant Price and number of Shares shall be proportionately adjusted so that the percentage of the Common Stock acquirable by the Holder upon exercise immediately prior to the event and immediately following the event remains the same.
SECTION 5. DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION; DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS.
Upon any proposed distribution of the assets of the Company in dissolution or liquidation, the Company shall mail notice of such distribution to each Holder and shall make no distribution to its shareholders until the expiration of forty five (45) days from the date of mailing of such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, each Holder may exercise the Warrant at any time prior to the expiration of such 45-day period and thereafter receive any distributions made to shareholders of the Company in connection with such dissolution or liquidation.

 

22


 

SECTION 6. FULLY PAID SHARES; TAXES; FRACTIONAL SHARES.
The Company covenants and agrees that the Warrant Shares will, at the time of delivery upon the exercise of the Warrant, be validly issued and outstanding and be fully paid and nonassessable. The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state issuance taxes that may be payable in respect of the Warrant or any Warrant Shares or certificates issued upon the exercise of the Warrant. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any Transfer involving a Transfer of Warrant Shares in the name other than that of a Holder, and any such tax shall be paid by the Holder requiring such Transfer. Fractional Warrant Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of the Warrant in any case in which the Underlying Shares are not a whole number and the Holder does not agree to accept cash in lieu of such fractional Warrant Shares.
SECTION 7. NOTIFICATION OF SHAREHOLDER MATTERS.
Prior to the exercise in full of the Warrant, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause any notice submitted to the shareholders of the Company also to be provided to the Holder, but shall have no liability to the Holder for failure to provide any such notice with respect to any matters which are disclosed by the Company to its shareholders or which are available to shareholders pursuant to the Company’s electronic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
SECTION 8.
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF WARRANTS AND SHARES; COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
8.1. In General. Neither the Warrant nor any Warrant Shares shall be Transferred except upon the conditions specified in this Warrant, which conditions are intended to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act (or any similar federal statute at the time in effect) and any applicable state securities laws in respect of any such Transfer.
8.2. Restrictive Legend. The Warrant Shares shall be represented by certificates, and, unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this §8.2, shall be marked with a legend reading substantially as follows:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM, SUBSTANCE AND SCOPE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT. ANY SUCH SALE, ASSIGNMENT OR TRANSFER MUST ALSO BE MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 

23


 

If a registration statement covering the Warrant or any Warrant Shares shall become effective under the Securities Act and under any applicable state securities laws, or if the Company shall receive an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which shall include counsel to the Company and counsel to the original Holder of the Warrant) that, in the opinion of such counsel, such legend is not required (including, without limitation, because of the availability of an exemption afforded by Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act), the Company shall, or shall instruct its transfer agents and registrars to, remove such legend or issue new Warrants or certificates without such legend. Upon the reasonable written request of a Holder, the Company shall forthwith request counsel to render an opinion with respect to the matters covered in this paragraph, and the Company shall pay all expenses in connection with such matters.
SECTION 9. LOST, STOLEN WARRANTS, ETC.
If the Warrant or any certificates evidencing Warrant Shares shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue a new Warrant or certificate of like date, tenor and denomination and deliver the same in exchange and substitution for and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant or certificate, or in lieu of the Warrant or certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company (an affidavit of the Holder shall be deemed sufficient) of the loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant or certificate.
SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS.
10.1. Holder Not A Shareholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Warrant, prior to the exercise of the Warrant no Holder shall be entitled to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including the right as a shareholder to (a) vote or consent or (b) receive dividends or any other distributions made in respect of Shares.
10.2. Notices. Any notice, demand or delivery to be made pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant shall be in writing and (a) shall be deemed to have been given or made one day after the date sent (i) if by the Company, by prepaid overnight delivery addressed to each Holder at its last known address appearing on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose or (ii) if by a Holder, by prepaid overnight delivery, addressed to the Company at the Company’s address as set forth in §2; and (b) if given by courier or confirmed facsimile transmission shall be deemed to have been made or given when received. Each Holder and the Company may each designate a different address by notice to the other in the manner provided in this §11.2.

 

24


 

10.3. Successors and Assigns. Subject to all conditions and limitations contained herein and to the requirements of applicable law, this Warrant and the rights evidenced by the Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the lawful successors and assigns of the Company and each Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of the Holders of the Warrant or the Warrant Shares and shall be enforceable by the Holders.
10.4. Actions by Holder; Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Warrant may be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and the Holder.  Any amendment, waiver, modification or consent entered into pursuant to this Section 11.4 shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
10.5. Headings; Severability. The descriptive headings of sections of this Warrant are provided solely for convenience of reference and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant. Should any part of the Warrant or this Warrant for any reason be declared invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of any remaining portion, which shall remain in force and effect as if the Warrant and this Warrant had been executed with the invalid portion eliminated. It is the intention of the Company and the Holder that they would have executed and accepted the remaining portion of the Warrant and this Warrant without including in such remaining portion any such part, parts or portion which may, for any reason, be hereafter declared invalid.
10.6. Governing Law. The Warrant and this Warrant and all matters concerning the Warrant and this Warrant shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado for contracts entered into and to be performed in such state without regard to principles of conflicts of laws; provided however, that with respect to the Company’s internal corporate matters, the laws of the State of Delaware shall govern.
10.7. Survival of Certain Provisions. Except as otherwise provided, the provisions of this Warrant shall survive the exercise of the Warrant and shall continue in full force and effect following such exercise until all Warrant Shares are no longer restricted securities under the federal securities laws.
10.8. Specific Performance. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holders would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Warrant are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, the Company agrees that the Holders shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Warrant and to enforce specifically this Warrant and the terms and provisions of this Warrant in any action instituted in any federal or state court in the United States having jurisdiction over the parties and the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which the Holders may be entitled, at law or in equity.

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS.
In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, the terms set forth on the Definitions Schedule to this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth on such Schedule.

 

30


 

SECTION 2. COVERED SHARES; EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
Subject to the conditions set forth in this Warrant, the Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part during the Exercise Period, but in no event subsequent to the end of the Exercise Period, by the surrender of the Warrant (with the subscription form attached to this Warrant duly completed and executed) at the principal office of the Company at 5990 Greenwood Plaza Blvd, Suite 390, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111, and upon payment of the applicable Exercise Price in cash or other immediately available funds. At the option of the exercising Holder, payment may be made by (a) cash or other immediately available funds.
The right granted by the Warrant to acquire Shares shall expire at the end of the Exercise Period, and such right shall be wholly null and void to the extent the Warrant is not exercised before that time. The Company shall pay all reasonable expenses, taxes and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of any certificates or other documents evidencing the Shares under this §2. Notwithstanding the surrender of the Warrant upon its exercise, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Holders as set forth in this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect.
SECTION 3. RESERVATION.
At all times during the Exercise Period, the Company shall reserve and keep available the maximum number of authorized but unissued Shares, solely for the purpose of issuing, upon the exercise of the Warrant, a number of Shares equal to the number of Underlying Shares.
SECTION 4. ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES.
The number of Warrant Shares and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment if the number of outstanding Shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be increased or decreased as a result of a stock split, a reverse stock split or similar recapitalization or reclassification of stock not involving any change in the shareholder’s equity or the aggregate market value of shares outstanding as a result thereof. The Warrant Price and number of Shares shall be proportionately adjusted so that the percentage of the Common Stock acquirable by the Holder upon exercise immediately prior to the event and immediately following the event remains the same.
SECTION 5. DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION; DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS.
Upon any proposed distribution of the assets of the Company in dissolution or liquidation, the Company shall mail notice of such distribution to each Holder and shall make no distribution to its shareholders until the expiration of forty five (45) days from the date of mailing of such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, each Holder may exercise the Warrant at any time prior to the expiration of such 45-day period and thereafter receive any distributions made to shareholders of the Company in connection with such dissolution or liquidation.

 

31


 

SECTION 6. FULLY PAID SHARES; TAXES; FRACTIONAL SHARES.
The Company covenants and agrees that the Warrant Shares will, at the time of delivery upon the exercise of the Warrant, be validly issued and outstanding and be fully paid and nonassessable. The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state issuance taxes that may be payable in respect of the Warrant or any Warrant Shares or certificates issued upon the exercise of the Warrant. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any Transfer involving a Transfer of Warrant Shares in the name other than that of a Holder, and any such tax shall be paid by the Holder requiring such Transfer. Fractional Warrant Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of the Warrant in any case in which the Underlying Shares are not a whole number and the Holder does not agree to accept cash in lieu of such fractional Warrant Shares.
SECTION 7. NOTIFICATION OF SHAREHOLDER MATTERS.
Prior to the exercise in full of the Warrant, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause any notice submitted to the shareholders of the Company also to be provided to the Holder, but shall have no liability to the Holder for failure to provide any such notice with respect to any matters which are disclosed by the Company to its shareholders or which are available to shareholders pursuant to the Company’s electronic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
SECTION 8.
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF WARRANTS AND SHARES; COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
8.1. In General. Neither the Warrant nor any Warrant Shares shall be Transferred except upon the conditions specified in this Warrant, which conditions are intended to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act (or any similar federal statute at the time in effect) and any applicable state securities laws in respect of any such Transfer.
8.2. Restrictive Legend. The Warrant Shares shall be represented by certificates, and, unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this §8.2, shall be marked with a legend reading substantially as follows:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM, SUBSTANCE AND SCOPE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT. ANY SUCH SALE, ASSIGNMENT OR TRANSFER MUST ALSO BE MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 

32


 

If a registration statement covering the Warrant or any Warrant Shares shall become effective under the Securities Act and under any applicable state securities laws, or if the Company shall receive an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which shall include counsel to the Company and counsel to the original Holder of the Warrant) that, in the opinion of such counsel, such legend is not required (including, without limitation, because of the availability of an exemption afforded by Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act), the Company shall, or shall instruct its transfer agents and registrars to, remove such legend or issue new Warrants or certificates without such legend. Upon the reasonable written request of a Holder, the Company shall forthwith request counsel to render an opinion with respect to the matters covered in this paragraph, and the Company shall pay all expenses in connection with such matters.
SECTION 9. LOST, STOLEN WARRANTS, ETC.
If the Warrant or any certificates evidencing Warrant Shares shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue a new Warrant or certificate of like date, tenor and denomination and deliver the same in exchange and substitution for and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant or certificate, or in lieu of the Warrant or certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company (an affidavit of the Holder shall be deemed sufficient) of the loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant or certificate.
SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS.
10.1. Holder Not A Shareholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Warrant, prior to the exercise of the Warrant no Holder shall be entitled to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including the right as a shareholder to (a) vote or consent or (b) receive dividends or any other distributions made in respect of Shares.
10.2. Notices. Any notice, demand or delivery to be made pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant shall be in writing and (a) shall be deemed to have been given or made one day after the date sent (i) if by the Company, by prepaid overnight delivery addressed to each Holder at its last known address appearing on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose or (ii) if by a Holder, by prepaid overnight delivery, addressed to the Company at the Company’s address as set forth in §2; and (b) if given by courier or confirmed facsimile transmission shall be deemed to have been made or given when received. Each Holder and the Company may each designate a different address by notice to the other in the manner provided in this §11.2.

 

33


 

10.3. Successors and Assigns. Subject to all conditions and limitations contained herein and to the requirements of applicable law, this Warrant and the rights evidenced by the Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the lawful successors and assigns of the Company and each Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of the Holders of the Warrant or the Warrant Shares and shall be enforceable by the Holders.
10.4. Actions by Holder; Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Warrant may be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and the Holder.  Any amendment, waiver, modification or consent entered into pursuant to this Section 11.4 shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
10.5. Headings; Severability. The descriptive headings of sections of this Warrant are provided solely for convenience of reference and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant. Should any part of the Warrant or this Warrant for any reason be declared invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of any remaining portion, which shall remain in force and effect as if the Warrant and this Warrant had been executed with the invalid portion eliminated. It is the intention of the Company and the Holder that they would have executed and accepted the remaining portion of the Warrant and this Warrant without including in such remaining portion any such part, parts or portion which may, for any reason, be hereafter declared invalid.
10.6. Governing Law. The Warrant and this Warrant and all matters concerning the Warrant and this Warrant shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado for contracts entered into and to be performed in such state without regard to principles of conflicts of laws; provided however, that with respect to the Company’s internal corporate matters, the laws of the State of Delaware shall govern.
10.7. Survival of Certain Provisions. Except as otherwise provided, the provisions of this Warrant shall survive the exercise of the Warrant and shall continue in full force and effect following such exercise until all Warrant Shares are no longer restricted securities under the federal securities laws.
10.8. Specific Performance. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holders would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Warrant are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, the Company agrees that the Holders shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Warrant and to enforce specifically this Warrant and the terms and provisions of this Warrant in any action instituted in any federal or state court in the United States having jurisdiction over the parties and the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which the Holders may be entitled, at law or in equity.
