If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of the registry of the Issued Warrant Shares in accordance with Section 2(b)(i) or 2(b)(ii) below, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised.

 

(b)               Registry of Shares; Payment of Purchase Price.

 

(i)              As soon as practicable after surrender of this Warrant and receipt of the Election to Purchase Shares and payment of the Purchase Price, the Company shall promptly register with the Transfer Agent, the number of shares of Common Stock set forth in the Election to Purchase Shares, in such name or names as may be designated by such Holder in the Election to Purchase Shares. Payment of the Purchase Price may be made in United States currency by cash or delivery of certified check, bank draft or postal or express money order payable to the order of the Company.

 

(i)             Alternative Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in lieu of exercising this Warrant as set forth in Section 2(b)(i) above, the Holder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by electing to receive that number of shares of Common Stock as determined below by surrendering to the Company at its principal office this Warrant along with the applicable Election to Purchase Shares duly executed by the Holder and the number of shares of Common Stock set forth therein, without payment of any cash consideration, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

  

CS = WCS x (MP-PP)

MP

  

 

where: 

 

CS equals the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder. 

 

WCS equals the Issuable Warrant Shares the Holder has elected to purchase under this Warrant. 

 

MP equals the Common Stock Current Market Price per share (on the Exercise Date).

 

PP equals the Purchase Price per share. 

 

Current Market Price on any date shall be deemed to be the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days commencing fifteen (15) Trading Days before the cashless Exercise Date.

 

Following the surrender of this Warrant and the number of shares of Common Stock set forth in the Election to Purchase Shares pursuant to this Section 2(b)(ii), the Company shall promptly register with the Transfer Agent, the number of Issued Warrant Shares, as calculated above, in such name or names as may be designated by the Holder.

 

(c)               When Exercise is Effective. The exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effective (each of (i) and (ii) below, an “Exercise Date”):

 

(i)                 pursuant to Section 2(b)(i) herein, immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which this Warrant is surrendered to the Company with the applicable Election to Purchase Shares and the Purchase Price is received by the Company as provided in this Section 2, at which time the Holder shall be deemed to be the record holder of the Issued Warrant Shares for all purposes on the Exercise Date, or

 

 

 3 

 

 

(ii)              pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii) herein, immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day in which this Warrant is surrendered to the Company along with the applicable Election to Purchase Shares electing cashless exercise pursuant to such section, duly executed by the Holder, and the number of shares of Common Stock set forth therein, at which time the Holder shall be deemed to be the record holder of the Issued Warrant Shares for all purposes on the Exercise Date.

 

(d)               Issued Warrant Shares Fully Paid, Non-assessable. The Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that following exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2, the Issued Warrant Shares issued hereunder shall, without further action by the Holder, be fully paid and non-assessable.

 

3.                  Adjustment of Purchase Price and Number of Shares. The Purchase Price and the Issuable Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time in the following manner upon the occurrence of the following events:

 

(a)               If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then the number of Issuable Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to the date upon which such change shall become effective, shall be adjusted by the Company so that the Holder thereafter exercising the Warrant shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock which, if the Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such event, (i) the Holder would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, distribution or subdivision, or (ii) in the case of a combination, equals the lower number of shares the Holder would have owned upon such exercise as a result of such combination. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant is adjusted as provided in this Section 3(a), then the Purchase Price shall also be adjusted by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of Issuable Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and the denominator of which shall equal the number of shares subject to this Warrant immediately after such adjustment. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. The Company will, in any adjustment made hereunder, also adjust the par value of the Common Stock proportionally (for example, in a 1 for 2 reverse split, the par value shall be doubled, and in a 2 for 1 forward split, the par value shall be reduced by half). The Company shall not otherwise adjust the par value of the Common Stock without consent of the Holder.

 

(b)               In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock (other than as provided in Section 3(a) above), recapitalize, consolidate with, or merge with or into, another corporation (collectively, a “Reorganization”), and pursuant to the terms of such Reorganization, stock, securities, property or other assets is to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock in lieu of or with respect to shares of Common Stock, then in each such case, the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be entitled to receive in lieu of the Issuable Warrant Shares or other securities and property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant prior to the consummation of such Reorganization, or if the Common Stock is not changed, exchanged or extinguished in such Reorganization transaction then in addition to the rights specified herein, the stock or other securities, property or assets to which the Holder would have been entitled had it exercised this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization, by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such Reorganization, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities of the Company hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3(b). The foregoing provisions of this Section 3(b) shall similarly apply to successive Reorganizations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Warrant shall grant the Holder any protection for dilution in the event of an issuance of Common Stock or other equity interests by the Company other than as set forth in Section 3(a) and this Section 3(b).

 

(c)               An adjustment to the Purchase Price or the number or type of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment.

 

(d)               In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 3(b), the Holder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Issuable Warrant Shares contained in this Warrant.

 

 

 4 

 

 

4.                  Certificate as to Adjustments. Whenever the Purchase Price or the Issuable Warrant Shares, or the securities or other property deliverable, upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Holder, in accordance with Section 13, in the form of a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board, President or one of the Vice Presidents of the Company, and by the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer or one of the Assistant Treasurers of the Company, stating the adjusted Purchase Price, the Issuable Warrant Shares, or the securities or other property deliverable, upon exercise of the Warrant and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such calculation is based. Each adjustment shall remain in effect until a subsequent adjustment is required.

 

5.                  Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding an adjustment pursuant to Section 3 in the number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant or any other provision of this Warrant, the Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares upon exercise of this Warrant or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional shares. In the event of fractional shares the number of shares of Common Stock will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

 

6.                  No Dilution or Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of this Warrant against dilution (to the extent required hereby) or other impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) will not increase the par value of any shares of stock receivable on the exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor on such exercise, (b) will at all times reserve and keep available the maximum number of its authorized shares of Common Stock, free from all preemptive rights, right of first refusal, dissenter’s rights of appraisal, anti-dilution adjustment or similar rights, which will be sufficient to permit the full exercise of this Warrant, and (c) will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that all shares of Common Stock as may be issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes (other than any taxes based on income to be imposed on the Holder in connection with the exercise of the Warrant and any tax or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that of the Holder), liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof (and the Company shall be responsible for the payment of any such taxes, liens and charges; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any legal expenses incurred by the Holder in connection with the issuance hereunder.

 

7.                  Replacement of Warrants. On receipt by the Company of an affidavit of an authorized representative of the Holder stating the circumstances of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant (and in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant), the Company at its expense will promptly execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor which shall be exercisable for a like number of shares of Common Stock. If required by the Company, such Holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity sufficient in the judgment of the Company to protect the Company from any loss which it may suffer if a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant is replaced.

 

8.                  Restrictions on Transfer.

 

(a)               Subject to the provisions of this Section 8, this Warrant may be transferred or assigned, in whole or in part, by the Holder at any time, and from time to time. The term “Holder” as used herein shall also include any transferee of this Warrant whose name has been recorded by the Company in the Warrant Register (as hereinafter defined). Each transferee of the Warrant or the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant shall agree and acknowledge in writing that the Warrant or the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act and may be transferred only pursuant to an effective registration under the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

 

(b)               The Company shall maintain a register (the “Warrant Register”) in its principal office for the purpose of registering the Warrant and any transfer thereof, which register shall reflect and identify, at all times, the ownership of any interest in the Warrant. Upon the issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall record the name of the initial purchaser of this Warrant in the Warrant Register as the first Holder. Upon surrender for registration of transfer or exchange of this Warrant together with a properly executed Form of Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B at the principal office of the Company, the Company shall, at its expense, execute and deliver one or more new Warrants of like tenor which shall be exercisable for a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, registered in the name of the Holder or a transferee or transferees.

 

9.                  No Voting Rights or Liability as a Shareholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company, except for dividend rights as set forth in Section 10 below. No provisions hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder hereof to purchase Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder shall give rise to any liability of such Holder as a shareholder of the Company.

 

 

 5 

 

 

10.              Dividend Right. Each time a cash dividend is paid on the Common Stock, the Holder will be entitled to receive (such entitlement, the “Dividend Right”) an amount equal to the amount of the dividend paid per share multiplied by the maximum number shares of Common Stock that would be issued to Holder if this Warrant were exercised in full immediately prior to the record date for any such dividend, as provided in Sections 2 and 3 above, as if such shares of Common Stock had been issued to and held by Holder. Holder will receive any amount payable in respect of the Dividend Right in a lump sum cash payment as and when the dividend is paid to the Company’s shareholders.
