3. Exercise of Warrant.

 

(a) In accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1(c) below, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time during the period commencing on the date that is three hundred and sixty-six (366) days following the Warrant Issue Date (the “One Year Exercise Date”).

 

(b) During the period that this Warrant is exercisable in accordance with Sections 1(a) above, the Holder may exercise this Warrant by presentation and surrender of this Warrant and the delivery of the Notice of Exercise Form duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and, if the date of exercise is prior to an Initial Public Offering, the Shareholders Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit B, duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, at the principal office of the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company), accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price for the number of shares specified in such Notice of Exercise Form.  Payment may be made (i) in cash or by certified or official bank check, payable to the order of the Company, (ii) by cancellation by the Holder of indebtedness or other obligations of the Company to the Holder, or (iii) by a combination of the consideration described in sub-clauses (i) and (ii) above.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company undertakes undergoes a sale or merger transaction, then (A) if the Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 3(d) below) of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to Section 3(d) below or (B) if the Fair Market Value of one Share is less than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect.

 

(c) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided above, and the person entitled to receive the Warrant Shares shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on such date.  As promptly as practicable on or after such date and in any event within ten (10) days thereafter, the Company at its expense shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates

 

 

 

 

(d) Net Issue Exercise.  Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of making payment of the consideration provided for in Section 3(a) above upon the exercise of all or any part of this Warrant, the Holder may surrender this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with the duly executed Notice of Exercise Form and, if the date of exercise is prior to the Initial Public Offering, the duly executed Shareholders Agreement, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

 

X =           Y (A – B)

A

X =	the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon exercise
Y =	the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)
A =	the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company's Common Stock (at the date of such calculation)
B =	the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)

For purposes of the above calculation, the term “Fair Market Value” shall mean (i) if the principal market for the Common Stock is The NASDAQ Stock Market or any other national securities exchange, the last sales price of the Common Stock on such day as reported by such exchange or market, or on a consolidated tape reflecting transactions on such exchange or market, (ii) if the principal market for the Common Stock is not a national securities exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market and the Common Stock is quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System, the mean between the closing bid and the closing asked prices for the Common Stock on such day as quoted on such System or (iii) if the Common Stock is not quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System, the mean between the highest bid and lowest asked prices for the Common Stock on such day as reported by Pink Sheets LLC; provided, however, that if none of (i), (ii) or (iii) above is applicable, or if no trades have been made or no quotes are available for such day, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock shall be reasonably determined, in good faith, by the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip.  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional share to which

 

 

 

5. Replacement of Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

 

6. Rights of Shareholders.  Subject to Sections 12, 14 and 16 of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until the Warrant shall have been exercised as provided herein.

(ii) Subject to compliance with Section 7(c)(i) above and the provisions of Section 9(f) of this Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred by the Holder with respect to any or all of the shares purchasable hereunder.  Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company, together with the Assignment Form, attached hereto as Exhibit C duly executed, and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified in the Assignment Form and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned.  Thereafter, this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.

15. Piggyback Registration Rights

 

15.1.  If at any time during the period commencing on the Six Month Post-IPO Exercise Date and ending on the Expiration Date (the “Piggyback Registration Period”), the Company proposes to register any shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act on any form for registration thereunder (the “Registration Statement”) for its own account or the account of shareholders (other than a registration solely relating to (i) shares of Common Stock underlying a stock option, restricted stock, stock purchase or compensation or incentive plan or of stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such plan, or a dividend investment plan; (ii) a registration of securities proposed to be issued in exchange for securities or assets of, or in connection with a merger or consolidation with, another corporation or other entity; or (iii) a registration of securities proposed to be issued in exchange for other securities of the Company), it will at such time give prompt written notice to the Holder of its intention to do so (the “Section 15.1 Notice”).  Upon the written request of the Holder given to the Company within ten (10) days after the giving of any Section 15.1 Notice setting forth the number of shares of Warrant Shares intended to be disposed of by the Holder and the intended method of disposition thereof, the Company will include or cause to be included in the Registration Statement the shares of Warrant Shares which the Holder has requested to register, to the extent provided in this Section 15 (a “Piggyback Registration”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, at any time, withdraw or cease proceeding with any registration pursuant to this Section 15.1 if it shall at the same time withdraw or cease proceeding with the registration of all of the Common Stock originally proposed to be registered.  The Company shall be obligated to file and cause the effectiveness of only one (1) Piggyback Registration; provided however, that to the extent that shares for which registration is requested pursuant hereto are excluded under Section 15.5, such shares shall be eligible for Piggyback Registration, notwithstanding the one Piggyback Registration limit.  The shares of Warrant Shares set forth in the Section 15.1 Notice are referred

 

 

 

15.2           Company Covenants.  Whenever required under this Section 15 to include Registrable Shares in a Registration Statement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and cause such Registration Statement to remain effective until the earlier of the Holder having completed the distribution of all its Registrable Shares described in the Registration Statement or six (6) months from the effective date of the Registration Statement (or such later date by reason of suspensions the effectiveness as provided hereunder). The Company will also use its commercially reasonable efforts to, during the period that such Registration Statement is required to be maintained hereunder, file such post-effective amendments and supplements thereto as may be required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder or otherwise to ensure that the Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading; provided, however, that if applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective amendment permits, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment that (i) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or (ii) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement, the Company may incorporate by reference information required to be included in (i) and (ii) above to the extent such information is contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) in the Registration Statement.

 

(b) Prepare and file with the Unites States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement, and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement.

 

(c) Furnish to the Holder such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus as amended or supplemented from time to time, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as it may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Shares owned by the Holder; provided that, in no event, shall the Company be required to incur printing expenses in excess of $1,000 in complying with its obligations under this Section 15.2(c).

 

(d) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other federal or state securities laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act.

 

 

 

 

(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering.

 

(f) Notify the Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, (a) when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment and supplement thereto has become effective; (b) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order or the initiation of proceedings for that purpose (in which event the Company shall make use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending effectiveness of the Registration Statement. at the earliest possible time or prevent the entry thereof); (c) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and (d) of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

 

(g) Cause all such Registrable Shares registered hereunder to be listed on each exchange or quotation service on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted.

 

(h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered pursuant hereunder and CUSIP number for all such Registrable Shares, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration.

 

15.3           Furnish Information.  In connection with a registration in which the Holder is participating, such Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter. In addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, the Holder shall provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information related to such Holder as may be required by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act.

15.4           Expenses of Company Registration.  All expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Section 15.1, including, without limitation, all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees and fees, disbursements of counsel for the Company and disbursements of counsel for the Holder up to $10,000 (the “Registration Expenses”) shall be borne by the Company.

15.5           Underwriting Requirements.  In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 15.1 to include any of the Holder’s Registrable Shares in such underwriting unless the Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only

 

 

 

15.6           Indemnification.  In the event that any Registrable Shares are included in a Registration Statement under this Section 15.

(a)           To the extent permitted by law, the Company will promptly indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for the Holder and each person, if any, who controls the Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, and the Company will pay to the Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 15.6(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action incurred by the Holder, underwriter or controlling person to the extent that such party’s loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in

 

 

 

(b)           To the extent permitted by law, the Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any underwriter, any other holder selling securities in such Registration Statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and the Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 15.6(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 15.6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 15.6(b) exceed 20% of the cash value of the gross proceeds from the offering received by the Holder.

(c)           Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 15.6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 15.6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 15.6, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 15.6.

(d)           If the indemnification provided for in this Section 15.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable

 

 

 

(e)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.

(f)           The obligations of the Company and the Holder under this Section 15.6 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Shares in a Registration Statement under this Section 15, and otherwise.

15.7.           Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  With a view to making available to the Holder the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holder to sell shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the public without registration, commencing immediately after the date on which a registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act becomes effective, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

(a)           make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
