To Purchase Shares of Common Stock of
SPECTRX, INC.
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, (the "Investor"), is entitled,
upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time
on or after the date hereof and on or prior to November 6, 2000, but not
thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase, from SPECTRX, INC. a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), _______________ shares of Common Stock. The
purchase price per share shall be equal to twenty percent (20%) of the price
per share of equity securities paid in the Company's next private offering of
equity securities, the aggregate gross proceeds from which exceeds $5,000,000
(whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions). The purchase price
and the number of shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject
to adjustment as provided herein.
1. Title of Warrant. Prior to the expiration hereof and subject to
compliance with applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company,
referred to in Section 2 hereof, by the holder hereof in person or by duly
authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant together with the
Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed.
2. Exercise of Warrant. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant
are exercisable by the registered holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any
time before the close of business on November 6, 2000 by the surrender of this
Warrant and the Subscription Form annexed hereto duly executed at the office of
the Company, in Norcross, Georgia (or such other office or agency of the
Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered holder
hereof at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company),
and upon payment of the purchase price of the shares thereby purchased (by cash
or by check or bank draft payable to the order of the Company or by
cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the holder hereof, if any, at
the time of exercise in an amount equal to the purchase price of the shares
thereby purchased); whereupon the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to
receive a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock so
19
purchased. The Company agrees that if at the time of the surrender of this
Warrant and purchase the holder hereof shall be entitled to exercise this
Warrant, the shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such
holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the
date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid.
Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the
holder hereof within a reasonable time after the date on which this Warrant
shall have been exercised as aforesaid.
The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which may be issued
upon the exercise of rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of
the rights represented by this Warrant, be fully paid and nonassessable and
free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other
than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such
issue).
3. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. With respect to any fraction of a share called for upon the exercise
of this Warrant, an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the then
current price at which each share may be purchased hereunder shall be paid in
cash to the holder of this Warrant.
4. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
the holder hereof 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 of this Warrant or in such name or names as may be directed by
the holder of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event certificates
for shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than the name of
the holder of this Warrant, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be
accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the holder
hereof; and provided further, that upon any transfer involved in the issuance
or delivery of any certificates for shares of Common Stock, the Company may
require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse
it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
5. No Rights as Shareholders. This Warrant does not entitle the holder
hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company
prior to the exercise thereof.
6. Exchange and Registry of Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon
the surrender hereof by the registered holder at the above-mentioned office or
agency of the Company, for a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such
exchange.
The Company shall maintain at the above-mentioned office or agency a
registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this Warrant.
This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange, transfer or exercise, in
accordance with its terms, at such office or agency of the Company,
-2-
20
and the Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects, prior to written
notice to the contrary, upon such registry.
7. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt by the
Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon
reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and
upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will
make and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation,
in lieu of this Warrant.
8. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the
taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein
shall be a Saturday or a Sunday or shall be a legal holiday, then such action
may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a
legal holiday.
9. Early Termination and Dilution.
(a) Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If at any time the Company proposes
to (i) effect a merger, reorganization or sale of substantially all of the
assets of the Company in which the stockholders of the Company immediately
prior to the transaction will hold less than 50% of the surviving entity (or
its parent) immediately after the transaction, or (ii) effect a registered
public offering of the Company's shares, then the Company shall give the holder
of this Warrant thirty days notice of the proposed effective date of such
transaction and if the Warrant has not been exercised by the effective date of
such transaction it shall terminate.
(b) Reclassification, etc. If the Company at any time shall, by
subdivision, combination or reclassification of securities or otherwise, change
any of the securities to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into
the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this
Warrant shall thereafter be to acquire such number and kind of securities as
would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the
securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant
immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, reclassification or other
change. If shares of the Company's Common Stock are subdivided or combined into
a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the purchase price under
this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares
or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in both
cases by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock to be
outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(c) Cash Distributions. No adjustment on account of cash dividends or
interest on the Company's Common Stock or other securities purchasable
hereunder will be made to the purchase price under this Warrant.
-3-
21
(d) Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period
the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued
Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of
Common Stock upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The
Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute
full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of the
Company's Common Stock upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this
Warrant.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a) Issue Date. The provisions of this Warrant shall be construed and
shall be given effect in all respect as if it had been issued and delivered by
the Company on the date hereof. This Warrant shall be binding upon any
successors or assigns of the Company. This Warrant shall constitute a contract
under the laws of the State of Delaware and for all purposes shall be construed
in accordance with and governed by the laws of said state.
(b) Restrictions. The holder hereof acknowledges that the Common
Stock acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant may have restrictions upon its
resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
(c) Waivers and Amendments. With the consent of the Holders (as
defined below) holding rights to purchase more than 50% of the shares issuable
upon exercise of the then outstanding Warrants (as defined below), the
obligations of the Company and the right of the Holders may be waived (either
generally or in a particular instance, either retroactively or prospectively
and either for a specified period of time or indefinitely), and with the same
consent the Company may enter into a supplementary agreement for the purpose of
adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of the Warrants; provided, however, that no such waiver or
supplemental agreement shall reduce the aforesaid percentage which is required
for consent to any waiver or supplemental agreement, without the consent of all
of the Holders of the then outstanding Warrants. As used in this Section 10(c),
(i) the "Warrants" shall be the warrants issued pursuant to the Company's Note
and Warrant Purchase Agreement of even date herewith, as amended before or
after the date hereof, and (ii) the "Holders" shall be the record holders of
the Warrants.
(d) Investment Representation Statement. If requested by the Company,
the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, agrees to execute an investment
representation statement containing representations substantially similar to
those set forth in Section 3 of the Company's Note and Warrant Purchase
Agreement of even date herewith.
