(c) Unless the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in any event no later than ten (10) business days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant identical in all respects to the Warrant exercised except (i) it shall represent rights to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under the Warrant exercised, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such Warrant is exercised, and (ii) the holder thereof shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the Warrant is surrendered and payment of the amount due in respect of such exercise and any applicable taxes is made, irrespective of the date of delivery of certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are properly closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Warrant Shares at the opening of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open. Upon presentation of a duly executed Exercise Notice, the holder shall be entitled to exercise this Warrant in whole or in part, if the holder shall have previously exercised and surrendered this Warrant and the Company shall not have issued a new Warrant representing the number of shares issuable following such prior exercise.

 

(d) No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number.

 

Section 3. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

 

(a) This Warrant is duly authorized and validly issued.

 

(b) All Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

 

(c) During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved at least the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par value of said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Warrant Exercise Price.

 

(d) The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

(e) This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.

 

Section 4. Taxes.

Section 5. Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no holder, as such, of this Warrant shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he or she is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant.

 

In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on such holder to purchase any securities or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

Section 6. Representations of Holder. The holder of this Warrant, by the acceptance hereof, represents (and any assignor shall represent) that it is acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution hereof, and not with any present intention of distributing any of the same. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the holder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired solely for the holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. If such holder cannot make such representations because they would be factually incorrect, it shall be a condition to such holder’s exercise of the Warrant that the Company receive such other representations as the Company considers reasonably necessary to assure the Company that the issuance of its securities upon exercise of the Warrant shall not violate any United States Federal or state securities laws.

 

Section 7. Ownership and Transfer.

 

(a) The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well as the name and address of each permissible transferee. The Company may treat the person in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, but in all events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.

 

(b) This Warrant and the rights granted to the holder hereof are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant, together with a properly executed warrant power in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto; provided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall be subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6 above and Section 7(c) below.

 

(c) The holder of this Warrant understands that this Warrant has not been and is not expected to be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (a) there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws covering any such transaction involving the securities, (b) the Company receives an opinion of legal counsel for the holder, in form, substance and scope reasonably acceptable to the Company, that registration is not required under the Securities Act, or (c) the Company, at its option, otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is exempt from registration. Any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act may be made only in accordance with the terms of said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder; and neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder.

 

Section 8. Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price. In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

 

(a) Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this Warrant, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, re-capitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this Warrant combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately decreased.

 

-5-

 

 

(b) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Any re-capitalization, reorganization reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person or other similar transaction which is effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred to herein as an “Organic Change.” Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that, upon the consummation of such Organic Change, the holder hereof will thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of the Common Stock, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place. In any such case, the Company will make appropriate provision with respect to such holders’ rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 8(b) will thereafter be applicable to this Warrant.

 

(c) Notices.

 

(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 8, the Company will give written notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.

 

(ii) The Company will give written notice to the holder of this Warrant at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change, dissolution or liquidation, except that in no event shall such notice be provided to such holder prior to such information being made known to the public.

 

(iii) The Company will also give written notice to the holder of this Warrant at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which any Organic Change, dissolution or liquidation will take place.

 

Section 9. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company shall, on receipt of an indemnification undertaking, issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.
