SYSVIEW TECHNOLOGY, INC.
WARRANT
Warrant No. o Date of Original Issuance: August __, 2006
Sysview Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"),
hereby certifies that, for value received, ? or its registered assigns (the
"HOLDER"), has the right to purchase from the Company up to a total of ? shares
of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), of the Company
(each such share, a "WARRANT SHARE" and all such shares, the "WARRANT SHARES")
at an exercise price equal to $1.50 per share (as adjusted from time to time as
provided in Section 8, the "EXERCISE PRICE"), at any time and from time to time
from and after the date hereof and through and including August __, 2009 (the
"EXPIRATION DATE"), and subject to the following terms and conditions. The
Warrant Shares possess certain registration rights pursuant to that certain
Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August __, 2006, by and between the
Company and the investors signatory thereto (the "REGISTRATION RIGHTS
AGREEMENT").
1. REGISTRATION OF WARRANT. The Company shall register this Warrant,
upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "WARRANT
REGISTER"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The
Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute
owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the
Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
-1-
2. REGISTRATION OF TRANSFERS. The Company shall register the transfer
of any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this
Warrant, with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed,
to the Company's transfer agent or to the Company at its address specified
herein. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common
Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a "NEW
WARRANT"), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued
to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this
Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder.
The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the
acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder
of a Warrant.
3. EXERCISE AND DURATION OF WARRANTS.
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder
at any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof to and including
the Expiration Date. At 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time on the Expiration Date, the
portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and
of no value.
(b) If on any date after the effectiveness of the initial
Registration Statement (as defined below), the closing price of the Common
Stock, as quoted on the OTC, any stock exchange, market or trading facility on
which the Common Stock is then listed, for 20 consecutive trading days equals at
least $3.00 (subject to adjustment in the event of any subdivision, combination
or reclassification affecting the Common Stock), the Company shall have the
right, at its option and upon 30 days written notice to the Holder, to terminate
this Warrant; provided that (i) the Holder shall have the right to exercise this
Warrant pursuant to Section 3(a) at any time prior to the termination of the
30-day notice period, and (ii) the Registration Statement shall be effective at
all times during such 30-day notice period, except if Holder may sell all
Warrant Shares covered hereby pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act.
Upon such termination, the Holder shall have no further rights hereunder.
(c) At any time after August __, 2007 that a Registration
Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the resale
of the Warrant Shares is not effective or is suspended, or that the related
Prospectus (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is outdated,
defective or requires a supplement or amendment for any reason, including upon
the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 6(e) of the Registration
Rights Agreement, the Holder may, at its option during such time, elect to pay
some or all of the Exercise Price payable upon an exercise of this Warrant by
canceling a portion of this Warrant exercisable for such number of Warrant
Shares as is determined by dividing (i) the total Exercise Price payable in
respect of the number of Warrant Shares being purchased upon such exercise by
(ii) the excess of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the
effective date of exercise, as determined pursuant to Section 3(d) below (the
"Exercise Date") over the Exercise Price per share. If the Holder wishes to
exercise this Warrant pursuant to this method of payment with respect to the
maximum number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to this method, then the
number of Warrant Shares so purchasable shall be equal to the total number of
Warrant Shares, minus the product obtained by multiplying (x) the total number
of Warrant Shares by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
Exercise Price per share and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock as of the Exercise Date.
-2-
(d) For purposes of this Warrant, "Fair Market Value" shall
mean, on any day:
(i) the closing price of the Common Stock on a
national securities exchange or as quoted on the Nasdaq National Market or the
Nasdaq SmallCap Market on such day, as reported by the Wall Street Journal; or
(ii) if the Common Stock is quoted on the Nasdaq
National Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market but no sale occurs on such day,
the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Common Stock on the
Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market on such day, as reported by
the Wall Street Journal; or
(iii) if the Common Stock is not so listed or quoted,
the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Common Stock in the U.S.
over-the-counter market; or
(iv) if no such trading market is readily available,
the fair market value of the Common Stock as determined in good faith and
certified by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company.
4. DELIVERY OF WARRANT SHARES.
(a) Upon delivery of the Form of Election to Purchase to the
Company (with the attached Warrant Shares Exercise Log) at its address for
notice set forth in Section 14 and upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied
by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder,
the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three trading days after
the Date of Exercise (as defined herein)) issue and deliver to the Holder, a
certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise free of all
restrictive or other legends, other than as required under Section 4(d).
Notwithstanding, at any time when there is an effective Registration Statement,
certificates for Warrant Shares shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of
the Company to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder's prime broker
with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent
Commission (DWAC) system, if the Company's transfer agent is a participant in
such system. The Company agrees to cause its transfer agent to be a participant
in such system (or engage a new transfer agent which is a participant in such
system) within 60 days after the date hereof. Any person so designated by the
Holder to receive Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have become holder of record
of such Warrant Shares as of the Date of Exercise of this Warrant.
A "DATE OF EXERCISE" means the date on which the Holder shall
have delivered to the Company (i) the Form of Election to Purchase attached
hereto (with the Warrant Exercise Log attached to it), appropriately completed
and duly signed and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant
Shares so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.
(b) If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a
certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares issuable upon an
exercise by the third trading day after the Date of Exercise, then the Holder
will have the right to rescind such exercise.
-3-
(c) The Company's obligations to issue and deliver Warrant
Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional,
irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any
waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any
judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged
breach by the Holder or any other person of any obligation to the Company or any
violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and
irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such
obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of
Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue any other
remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver certificates representing
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the
terms hereof. If the Company breaches its obligations under this Warrant, then,
in addition to any other liabilities the Company may have hereunder and under
applicable law, the Company shall pay or reimburse the Holder on demand for all
costs of collection and enforcement (including reasonable attorneys fees and
expenses).
(d) Transfer Restrictions.
(i) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares may only be
disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act, to the Company or pursuant to an available exemption from or in a
transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act,
and in compliance with any applicable federal and state securities laws. In
connection with any transfer of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares other than
pursuant to an effective registration statement or to the Company, except as
otherwise set forth herein, the Company may require the transferor to obtain an
opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that such
transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company, without requiring a legal opinion as described in
the immediately preceding sentence, hereby consents to and agrees to register on
the books of the Company and with any transfer agent for the securities of the
Company any transfer of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares by the Holder to an
Affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Holder or to
one or more funds or managed accounts under common management with such Holder,
and any transfer among any such Affiliates or one or more funds or managed
accounts, provided that the transferee certifies to the Company that it is an
"accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and
that it is acquiring the Warrant and the Warrant Shares solely for investment
purposes (subject to the qualifications hereof).
(ii) Warrant Shares issued while there is not an
effective registration statement covering the resale by the Holder of the
Warrant Shares (a "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") or while the Holder may not resell
such Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act shall be
issued with the following legend:
-4-
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN
RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD
EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO,
THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH
SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. HOWEVER, THESE SECURITIES MAY BE
PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY
SUCH SECURITIES.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Warrant Shares issued when there is an effective Registration
Statement, or at a time when the Holder may resell such Warrant Shares under
Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act, or when such legend is not required under
the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued
by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission) shall be issued free of
all restrictions and other legends. The Company agrees that following the date
on which a Registration Statement is first declared effective by the Securities
and Exchange Commission and the date on which Warrant Shares may be resold under
144(k), it will, no later than five trading days following the delivery by a
Holder to the Company of a certificate or certificates representing any Warrant
Shares issued with a restrictive legend, deliver to such Holder certificates
representing such Warrant Shares which shall be free from all restrictive
legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give
instructions to any transfer agent of the Company which enlarge the restrictions
of transfer set forth in this Section.
5. CHARGES, TAXES AND EXPENSES. Issuance and delivery of certificates
for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without
charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer
agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such
certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which
may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any
certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the
Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may
arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant
Shares upon exercise hereof.
6. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen
or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and
substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution
for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction, if requested.
Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with
such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable
third-party costs as the Company may prescribe.
-5-
7. RESERVATION OF WARRANT SHARES. The Company covenants that it will at
all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but
unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein
provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable
upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any
other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into
account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 8). The Company covenants
that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the
payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be
duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.
8. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to
time as set forth in this Section 8.
(a) STOCK DIVIDENDS AND SPLITS. If the Company, at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock
or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable
in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price
shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which
the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this
paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution,
and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall
become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or
combination.
(b) PRO RATA DISTRIBUTIONS. If the Company, at any time while
this Warrant is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (i)
evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of
Common Stock covered by the preceding paragraph), (iii) rights or warrants to
subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) any other asset (in each case,
"DISTRIBUTED PROPERTY"), then in each such case the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such distribution shall be adjusted (effective on such
record date) to equal the product of such Exercise Price times a fraction of
which the denominator shall be such Exercise Price and of which the numerator
shall be such Exercise Price less the then fair market value of the Distributed
Property distributed in respect of one outstanding share of Common Stock, as
determined by the Company's independent certified public accountants that
regularly examine the financial statements of the Company (an "APPRAISER"). In
such event, the Holder, after receipt of the determination by the Appraiser,
shall have the right to select an additional appraiser (which shall be a
nationally recognized accounting firm), in which case such fair market value
shall be deemed to equal the average of the values determined by each of the
Appraiser and such appraiser. As an alternative to the foregoing adjustment to
the Exercise Price, at the request of the Holder delivered before the 90th day
after such record date, the Company will deliver to such Holder, within five
trading days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of such
distribution), the Distributed Property that such Holder would have been
entitled to receive in respect of the Warrant Shares for which this Warrant
could have been exercised immediately prior to such record date.
-6-
(c) SUBSEQUENT SALES. If the Company at any time prior to the
Effectiveness Date shall sell shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible
into shares of Common Stock) at a price per share (or having a conversion price
per share, if a security convertible into Common Stock) which is less than
$1.50, then the Warrant Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the lower
offering price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions
of this Section 8(c) shall not apply to any such securities issued or to be
issued pursuant to: (i) employees, consultants, officers or directors of the
Company pursuant to any stock option, stock purchase or stock bonus plan,
agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors; (ii) the
acquisition of another business entity or business segment of any such entity by
the Company by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets or other
reorganization whereby the Company will own more than fifty (50%) of the voting
power of such business segment of any such entity; (iii) vendors or customers or
to other persons in similar commercial situations with the Company if such
issuance is approved by the Board of Directors; (iv) corporate partnering
transactions on terms approved by the Board of Directors; (v) the terms of any
of the Company's preferred stock, warrants or other convertible securities
outstanding on the date hereof; (vi) borrowings, direct or indirect, from
financial institutions regularly engaged in the business of lending money,
whether or not presently authorized which include an equity component which is
not a major component of such borrowing; (vii) a merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization, sale of assets, stock purchase, contribution
or other similar transaction that involves the Company, on the one hand, and any
corporation or other entity that controls, directly or indirectly, the Company,
on the other hand; or (viii) other non-cash transactions.
(d) FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS. If, at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of
the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of
all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related
transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company
or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are
permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or
property, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock
or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is
effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property
(in any such case, a "FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION"), then the Holder shall have the
right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and
kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive
upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately
prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of Warrant
Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the "ALTERNATE
CONSIDERATION"). The aggregate Exercise Price for this Warrant will not be
affected by any such Fundamental Transaction, but the Company shall apportion
such aggregate Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable
manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the
Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to
the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction,
then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental
-7-
Transaction. In addition, at the Holder's request, any successor to the Company
or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a
new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's
right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price
upon exercise thereof. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a
Fundamental Transaction is affected shall include terms requiring any such
successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph
(c) and insuring that the Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be
similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental
Transaction. If any Fundamental Transaction constitutes or results in a Change
of Control, then at the request of the Holder delivered before the 90th day
after such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or any such successor or
surviving entity) will purchase the Warrant from the Holder for a purchase
price, payable in cash within five trading days after such request (or, if
later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), equal to the Black
Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date
of such request. As used in this Warrant, "CHANGE OF CONTROL" means the
occurrence of any of (i) an acquisition after the date hereof by any Person or
"GROUP" (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act) of
more than one-third of the voting rights or equity interests in the Company,
(ii) a replacement of more than one-half of the members of the Company's board
of directors that is not approved by those individuals who are member of the
board of directors on the date hereof in one or a series of related
transactions, (iii) a merger or consolidation of the Company or any subsidiary
or a sale of more than one-third of the assets of the Company in one or a series
of related transactions, unless following such transactions or series of
transactions, the holders of the Company's securities prior to the first such
transaction continue to hold at least two-thirds of the voting rights and equity
interests in of the surviving entity or acquirer of such assets, or (iv) the
execution by the Company of an agreement to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound, providing for any of the events set forth above in (i), (ii)
or (iii).
(e) NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. Simultaneously with any
adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this
Section, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such
adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the increased or
decreased number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 8 in respect of any
grant of options or warrants, or the issuance of additional securities, under
any duly authorized Company stock option, restricted stock plan or stock
purchase plan.
(f) CALCULATIONS. All calculations under this Section 8 shall
be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable.
The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not
include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the
disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common
Stock.
(g) NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment pursuant to this Section 8, the Company at its expense will promptly
compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare
a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the
adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other
securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing
the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts
upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will
promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the
Company's transfer agent.
-8-
(h) NOTICE OF CORPORATE EVENTS. If the Company (i) declares a
dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in
respect of its Common Stock, including without limitation any granting of rights
or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any
subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating
or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction or (iii)
authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs
of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice describing
the material terms and conditions of such transaction, at least 20 calendar days
prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to
hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such
transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order
to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to exercise this
Warrant prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to such
transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any
defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to
be described in such notice. Until the exercise of this Warrant or any portion
of this Warrant, the Holder shall not have nor exercise any rights by virtue
hereof as a stockholder of the Company (including without limitation the right
to notification of stockholder meetings or the right to receive any notice or
other communication concerning the business and affairs of the Company other
than as provided in this Section 8(h)).
(i) PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 3(c), the Holder shall pay the Exercise Price in cash, by certified or
bank check, or by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in lawful money
of the United States.
9. LIMITATION ON EXERCISE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by
the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof)
shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise
(or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then
beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates under Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial
ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Each delivery of an
Exercise Notice hereunder will constitute a representation by the Holder that it
has evaluated the limitation set forth in this paragraph and determined that
issuance of the full number of Warrant Shares requested in such Exercise Notice
is permitted under this paragraph. The restrictions set forth in this Section 9
shall not apply in determining the consideration and the number of shares or
other securities, and other property to which Holder may be entitled upon any
adjustment or event contemplated in Section 8 of this Warrant.
10. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Warrant Shares will
be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any
fractional shares which would, otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash
equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the closing price of one
Warrant Share as reported on the OTC, any stock exchange, market or trading
facility on which the Common Stock is then listed on the date of exercise.
-9-
11. EXCHANGE ACT FILINGS. The Holder agrees and acknowledges that it
shall have sole responsibility for making any applicable filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13 and 16 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as a result of its acquisition of
this Warrant and the Warrant Shares and any future retention or transfer
thereof.
12. PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS. If at any time during after the Original
Issue Date and through the Expiration Date there is not an effective
Registration Statement covering all of the Warrant Shares and the Company shall
determine to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a
registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the
account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities,
other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities
Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely
in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity
securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit
plans, then the Company shall send to each Holder written notice of such
determination and, if within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice, any
such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such
registration statement all or any of the Warrant Shares such holder requests to
be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all
holders of registration rights.
13. NOTICES. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries
hereunder (including without limitation any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing

transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the
facsimile number specified in this Section at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern
Time) on a trading day, (ii) the next trading day after the date of

later than 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on any trading day, (iii) the trading day
following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight

or (ii) if to the Holder, to the address or facsimile number appearing on the
Warrant Register or such other address or facsimile number as the Holder may
provide to the Company in accordance with this Section.
14. WARRANT AGENT. The Company shall serve as warrant agent under this
Warrant. Upon 30 days' notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new
warrant agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent
may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the
Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any corporation to which
the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its
corporate trust or shareholders services business shall be a successor warrant
agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any such successor warrant
agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be
mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder's last
address as shown on the Warrant Register.
-10-
15. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to
the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to
any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right,
remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only
in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and their successors and
assigns.
(b) All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and
