COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase __________ Shares of Common Stock of
DAUGHERTY RESOURCES, INC.
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT CERTIFIES that, for value
received, _____________ (the "Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject
to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any
time on or after June 13, 2003 (the "Initial Exercise Date") and on or prior to
the close of business on the third anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date (the
"Termination Date") but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from
Daugherty Resources, Inc., a corporation incorporated in the Province of British
Columbia (the "Company"), up to ____________ shares (the "Warrant Shares") of
Common Stock, no par value per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The
purchase price of one share of Common Stock (the "Exercise Price") under this
Warrant shall be $4.80, subject to adjustment hereunder. The Exercise Price and
the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be
subject to adjustment as provided herein. CAPITALIZED TERMS USED AND NOT
OTHERWISE DEFINED HEREIN SHALL HAVE THE MEANINGS SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN
SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (THE "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), DATED JUNE 10, 2003,
BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE INVESTORS SIGNATORY THERETO.
1. Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject
to compliance with applicable laws and Section 7 of this Warrant, this Warrant
and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or
agency of the Company by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney,
upon surrender of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto
properly endorsed. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
2. Authorization of Shares. The Company covenants that all
Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, 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. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) Except as provided in Section 4 herein,
exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made
at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or
before the Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant and the
Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of
the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may
designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address
of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company) and upon payment
of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer
or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank or by means of a
cashless exercise pursuant to Section 3(d), the Holder shall be
entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares so
purchased. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be
delivered to the Holder within five (5) Trading Days (three (3) Trading
Days after the Company reincorporates in Delaware and has a U.S. based
transfer agent) after the date on which this Warrant shall have been
exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been
exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have
been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named
therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such
shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised
by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required
to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 5 prior to the
issuance of such shares, have been paid. If the Company fails to
deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the
Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a) by the fifth Trading Day
(or third Trading Day, as applicable) after the date of exercise, then
the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise. In addition to
any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to
deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the
Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise by the fifth Trading Day (or
third Trading Day, as applicable) after the date of exercise, and if
after such fifth Trading Day (or third Trading Day, as applicable) the
Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market
transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the
Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a "Buy-In"), then the
Company shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the
Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any)
for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount
obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the
Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the
exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order giving
rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of
the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent
number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored or
deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would
have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and
delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases
Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In
with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an
aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of
$10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the
Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall
provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to
the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable
confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company.
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.
2
(b) If this Warrant shall have been
exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the
certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to
Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the
unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new
Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, in no event shall the Holder be permitted to exercise this
Warrant for Warrant Shares to the extent that (i) the number of shares
of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder, together with any
affiliate thereof (other than Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant) plus (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant, would be equal to or exceed 4.9999% of the
number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding, including
shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant held by such Holder after
application of this Section 3(c). As used herein, beneficial ownership
shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act and the rules promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the
limitation contained in this Section 3(c) applies, the determination of
whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities
owned by the Holder) and of which a portion of this Warrant is
exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the
submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be such Holder's
determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to
other securities owned by such Holder) and of which portion of this
Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate
percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to
verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a Holder to exercise
this Warrant into Warrant Shares at such time as such exercise will not
violate the provisions of this Section 3(c). The provisions of this
Section 3(c) may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the
Holder, not less than 61 days' prior notice to the Company, and the
provisions of this Section 3(c) shall continue to apply until such 61st
day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be
specified in such notice of waiver). No exercise of this Warrant in
violation of this Section 3(c) but otherwise in accordance with this
Warrant shall affect the status of the Warrant Shares as validly
issued, fully-paid and nonassessable.
(d) IF AT ANY TIME AFTER ONE YEAR FROM THE
DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS WARRANT THERE IS NO EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
STATEMENT REGISTERING THE RESALE OF THE WARRANT SHARES BY THE HOLDER,
this Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless
exercise" in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a
certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day preceding the date of such
election;
(B) = the Exercise Price of the Warrants, as adjusted; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
of the Warrants in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant.
4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or
scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled
to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in
respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Exercise Price.
5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. 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
3
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 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 the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the
Holder; and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a
sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
6. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its
stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of
this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
7. Transfer, Division and Combination.
(a) Subject to compliance with any applicable
securities laws and the conditions set forth in Sections 1 and 7(f)
hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement,
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 duly executed by the Holder
or its agent or attorney 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 or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the
denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of
assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing
the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall
promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be
exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without
having a new Warrant issued.
(b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with
other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the
Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and
denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the
Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section
7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or
combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or
combined in accordance with such notice.
(c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at
its own expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants
under this Section 7.
(d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid
office, books for the registration and the registration of transfer of
the Warrants.
(e) If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant
in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this
Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state
securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of
allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of this
Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion
of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope
customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the
effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the
Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws,
(ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company
an investment letter in form and substance acceptable to the Company
and (iii) that the transferee be an "accredited investor" as defined in
Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act.
4
8. No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise. This Warrant does
not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of
the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and
the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (or by means of a cashless
exercise), the Warrant 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 later of the date of such surrender or payment.
9. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The
Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss,
theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it
(which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond),
and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if
mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate
of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or
stock certificate.
10. 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, Sunday or a legal holiday, then
such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
11. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant
Shares. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
upon the happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a
dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common
Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common
Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of
the Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder
shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other
securities of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to
receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such
adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the
Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled
to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting from such
adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by
multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to
such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities
of the Company resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to
this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of
such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.
12. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or
Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there
is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company),
or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property,
assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any
cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or
in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other
Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock
of the Company, then the Holder shall have
5
the right thereafter to receive, at the option of the Holder, upon exercise of
this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring
corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other
Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the
due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and
condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all
the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may
be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares
for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. For purposes of
this Section 12, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall
include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to
dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which
is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or
exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a
specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other
rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of
this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
13. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at
any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price
to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of
Directors of the Company.
14. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant
Shares or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the
exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided,
the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state
the number of Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon
the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and
other securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the
computation by which such adjustment was made.
15. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the
holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for
or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of
any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other
right, or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization of
the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital
stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company
with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or
substantially all the property, assets or business of the Company to,
another corporation or,
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at
least 20 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be
selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to
vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation,
6
sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of
any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale,
transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 20 days'
prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in
accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which
any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or
right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any
such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and
(ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding
up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares
for securities or other property deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given
if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the books of
the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 17(d).
16. 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 the Warrant Shares 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
the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant.
The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure
that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of
any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market
upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by
the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
amending 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 of this Warrant, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant
Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to
such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid
and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or
consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be
necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
Before taking any action which would result in an
adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable
or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or
exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public
regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
17. Miscellaneous.
(a) Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall constitute a
contract under the laws of New York, without regard to its conflict of
law, principles or rules.
(b) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the
Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not
registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and
federal securities laws.
7
(c) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or
any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of
Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice
Holder's rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights
hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully
and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which
results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to
Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and
expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees,
including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in
collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing
any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
(d) Notices. Any notice, request or other document
required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the
Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of
the Purchase Agreement.
(e) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in
the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this
Warrant or purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the
rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of
Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder
of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by
creditors of the Company.
(f) Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled
to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages,
will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this
Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate
compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the
provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in
any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be
adequate.
(g) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable
securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced
hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors
of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The
provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all
Holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by
any such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
(h) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or
amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the
Company and the Holder.
(i) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision
of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective
and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant
shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision
shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity,
without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining
provisions of this Warrant.
(j) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are
for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose,
be deemed a part of this Warrant.
