1. Exercise of Warrants.

1.1 General Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part by the Holder at any time and from time to time after the Initial Exercise Date (if any) and on or prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date and (b) if Shareholder Approval is not obtained at the Shareholder Meeting, this Warrant will automatically be cancelled as of 5:00 p.m. New York time on the date of the Shareholder Meeting; provided, however, that if such exercise would result in the Holder acquiring beneficial ownership of Common Stock (together with all other Common Stock owned by the Holder at such time) with a value of or in excess of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”) notification threshold applicable to the Holder (the “HSR Threshold”), or with a value of or in excess of the notification thresholds of applicable competition or merger control laws of other jurisdictions applicable to the Holder (“Foreign Thresholds”), and no exemption to filing a notice and report form under the HSR Act or applicable competition or merger control laws of other jurisdictions, as the case may be, are applicable, then only the exercise of such portion of this Warrant, which when exercised does not exceed the HSR Threshold or Foreign Thresholds, shall be exercised and the Purchase Form and/or Notice of Exercise by Share Settlement shall be deemed to relate only to such portion of this Warrant, in which case the exercise of the remaining portion of this Warrant in excess of the HSR Threshold or Foreign Thresholds shall not occur until the expiration or early termination of the applicable waiting periods.

1.2 Exercise for Cash. This Warrant may be exercised (a “Cash Exercise”) by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Purchase Form” attached hereto as Exhibit A duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company in the amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares in respect of which this Warrant is then exercised, plus all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2.

 

3


1.3 Exercise by Net Share Settlement. This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part (a “Exercise by Net Share Settlement”), into the number of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with this Section 1.3 by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement” attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company for any taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. In the event of an exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares (rounded to the nearest whole number) computed using the following formula:

 

  Y (A - B)      
X =         A      

Where:

X = The net number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the Exercise by Net Share Settlement;

Y = The gross number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which the Exercise by Net Share Settlement is made;

A = The Market Price as of the Exercise Date; and

B = The Exercise Price.

1.4 Issuance of Certificate(s); Authorization. Upon surrender of this Warrant and full compliance with each of the other requirements in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall, promptly, either (i) issue and cause to be delivered a certificate or certificates or (ii) instruct its transfer agent to register in book entry form, in either case to the Holder, or upon the written request of the Holder, in and to such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates (or book entry shares) for the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be. Such certificate or certificates (or book entry shares) shall not be deemed to have been issued, and any person so designated to be named therein shall not be deemed to have become or have any rights of a holder of record of such Warrant Shares, until all requirements set forth in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, have been fully met by the Holder. The certificate(s) (or book entry shares) representing the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear the restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth on Exhibit C hereto; provided, that, upon the reasonable request of the Holder, at any time, and from time to time, when such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, the Company shall promptly remove such legend from any certificate representing the Warrant Shares (or issue one or more new certificates representing such Warrant Shares, which certificate(s) shall not contain a legend). The Company hereby represents and warrants that any Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Sections 1.2 and/or 1.3 will, immediately following receipt of the Shareholder Approval, be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than liens or charges created by the Holder or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price are delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Shares may not be actually delivered on such date.

1.5 Full or Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder, either in full or in part and, in the event that this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall promptly issue a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants, in a form substantially identical hereto, in the name of the Holder, and delivered to the Holder or to another person that the Holder has designated for delivery as soon as practicable, and in any event not exceeding three business days from such exercise.

2. Payment of Taxes. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names (provided the Holder has complied with the restrictions on transfer set forth herein) as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by a properly executed assignment in form attached hereto as Exhibit D; and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

3. Mutilated, Missing or Lost Warrant. In the event that this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue and countersign, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for its loss, theft or destruction, a new Warrant with identical terms, representing an equivalent number of Warrant Shares and dated the same date as this Warrant that was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence and indemnity or other security reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant.

4. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company will at all times prior to earlier of the exercise in full of this Warrant and the Expiration Date reserve and keep available, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may then be deliverable upon the Cash Exercise of this Warrant.

5. Fractional Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares, or scrip for any such fractional Warrant Shares, shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 5, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock less the Exercise Price for such fractional share.

6. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.

6.1 Changes in Common Stock. In the event that at any time and from time to time the Company shall (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock or other shares of capital stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) increase or decrease the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding by reclassification of its Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant immediately after the happening of such event shall be proportionally adjusted so that, after giving effect to such adjustment, the Holder of each Warrant shall be entitled to receive the number of Warrant Shares upon exercise of such Warrant that such Holder would have owned or would have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the happening of the events described above (or, in the case of a dividend or distribution of Common Stock, immediately prior to the record date therefor). An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6 shall become effective

 

5


immediately after the distribution date, retroactive to the record date therefore in the case of a dividend or distribution in shares of Common Stock or other shares of capital stock, and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

6.2 Issuance of Rights. In the event that at any time or from time to time the Company shall issue to all holders of Common Stock rights to acquire Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock in effect immediately prior to such issuance, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant immediately after such issuance shall be determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant immediately prior to such issuance by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such rights plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock with respect to which such rights for subscription or purchase have been exercised, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such rights plus the total number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration expected to be received by the Company upon the exercise of such rights (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be evidenced by a board resolution which will be sent to Holders upon request) would purchase at the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the record date; and, subject to Section 6.3, in the event of any such adjustment, the Exercise Price immediately prior to such date of issuance shall be adjusted to a number determined by dividing the Exercise Price immediately prior to such date of issuance by the aforementioned fraction. Such adjustment shall be made, and shall only become effective, when shares of Common Stock are subscribed for or purchased in accordance with such rights, retroactive to the record date when such rights are issued. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.2 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant.

6.3 Minimum Adjustment. The adjustments required by Section 6.2 and/or 6.2 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that no adjustment of the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants that would otherwise be required shall be made unless and until such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made increases or decreases by at least 0.5% the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 6 and not previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence. In computing adjustments under this Section 10, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to the nearest one-hundredth of a share.

6.4 Adjustment to Warrant Certificate. The form of Warrant Certificate need not be changed because of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6, and Warrant Certificates issued after such adjustment may state the same Exercise Price and the same number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as are stated in the Warrant Certificates initially issued pursuant to the Exchange Agreement. The Company, however, may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of Warrant Certificate that it may deem appropriate to give effect to such adjustments and that does not affect the substance of the Warrant Certificate, and any Warrant Certificate thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant Certificate or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

7. Liquidity Event. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or other transaction, which, in each case, is effected in such a way that the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon

 

6


subsequent related liquidation) cash, stock, securities or assets (or a combination of the foregoing) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred to herein as a “Liquidity Event.” Immediately prior to the consummation of any Liquidity Event, this Warrant, and all rights of the Holder hereunder (other than the rights under this Section 7), shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any further action by any person, and in return therefor, the Holder shall automatically be deemed, without the need for any further action by any person, to have exchanged this Warrant in return for such cash, shares of stock, securities or assets (or a combination of the foregoing) as may be issued or payable in connection with the consummation of such Liquidity Event with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the Exercise by Net Share Settlement of the Holder’s Warrant had such Liquidity Event not taken place.

8. Notices.

8.1 Notices Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided hereunder, all notices referred to herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or by reputable overnight courier service, charges prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been given when so mailed or sent (i) to the Company, at its principal executive offices and (ii) to the Holder, at the Holder’s address as it appears in the stock records of the Company (unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in writing) and to such other persons identified in Exhibit E (as may be revised by the Holder in writing).

8.2 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares and other property, if any, issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall deliver to the Holders a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants after giving effect to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Holder objects to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (after giving effect to the proposed adjustment) set forth in the certificate provided by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, the Company shall promptly obtain a certificate of a firm of independent accounts selected by the Board of Directors (who may, to the extent it would not compromise its “independence”, be the regular accountants employed by the Corporation) setting forth the same information and detail as required in the immediately preceding sentence, and such certificate shall be used for the basis to effect the applicable adjustment to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

8.3 Notice of Certain Transactions. In the event the Company shall propose to (a) distribute any dividend or other distribution to all holders of its Common Stock or options, warrants or other rights to receive such dividend or distribution, (b) offer to all holders of its Common Stock rights to subscribe for or to purchase any securities convertible into shares of Common Stock or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options, (c) effect any capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, (d) effect the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or (e) make a tender offer or exchange offer with respect to the Common Stock, the Company shall promptly send to the Holders a notice of such proposed action or offer at their addresses as they appear on the register of the Company, which shall specify the record date for the purposes of such dividend, distribution or rights, or the date such issuance or event is to take place and the date of participation therein by the holders of Common Stock, if any such date is to be fixed, and shall briefly indicate the effect, if any, of such action on the Common Stock and on the number and kind of any other shares of stock and on property, if any, and the number of shares of Common Stock and other property, if any, issuable upon exercise of each Warrant and the Exercise Price after giving effect to any such adjustment pursuant to Section 6 which will be required as a result of such action. Such notice shall be given as promptly as possible and, in any case, at least fourteen (14) days prior to the date of the taking of such action, or participation therein, by the holders of Common Stock.

9. Transfer. This Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D duly executed by the Holder and the transferee and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the assignee and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.

10. No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof.

11. Termination upon Failure of Shareholder Approval. The Holder acknowledges that this Warrant and all rights and obligations hereunder shall terminate and be forfeited in the event that Shareholder Approval is not obtained at the Shareholder Meeting.

12. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and assigns.

13. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan, without giving effect to conflict of law principles.

14. Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant, but this Warrant shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

15. Change or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement is sought.

16. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.
