pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 2(e)), and (iii) the

certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares.
(b) Unless the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or
shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and
in no event later than five business days after any exercise and at its own
expense, issue a new Warrant identical in all respects to this Warrant exercised
except it shall represent rights to purchase the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant exercised,
less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such Warrant is
exercised.
(c) No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock issued
upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole
number.
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
holder of this Warrant may, at its election exercised in its sole discretion,
exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash
payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in
payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such
exercise the "Net Number" of shares of Common Stock determined according to the
following formula (a "Cashless Exercise"):
Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
-----------------
B
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
3
A= the total number shares with respect to which this
Warrant is then being exercised.
B= the last reported sale price (as reported by
Bloomberg) of the Common Stock on the date
immediately preceding the date of the Exercise
Notice.
C= the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect at the
time of such exercise.
Section 3. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company hereby covenants
and agrees as follows:
(a) This Warrant is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or
replacement of this Warrant will upon issuance be, duly authorized and validly
issued.
(b) All Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect
to the issue thereof.
(c) During the period within which the rights represented by this
Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and
reserved at least 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide
for the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par
value of said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable
Warrant Exercise Price.
(d) The Company shall promptly secure the listing of the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon each national
securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of
Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance upon
exercise of this Warrant) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of
Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock from
time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall
so list on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, as
the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital
stock of the Company issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long
as any shares of the same class shall be listed on such national securities
exchange or automated quotation system.
(e) The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation
or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid
or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the
taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this
4
Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant
against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of
this Warrant. The Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of
Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Warrant
Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue
fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this
Warrant.
(f) This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the
Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of
the Company's assets.
Section 4. Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be
payable with respect to ----- the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon
exercise of this Warrant.
Section 5. Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. Except as otherwise
specifically provided herein, no holder, as such, of this Warrant shall be
entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the
Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be
construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a
stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any
corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification
of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of
meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the
issuance to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he or she is
then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition,
nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities
on such holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or
otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are
asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this
Section 5, the Company will provide the holder of this Warrant with copies of
the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company
generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.
Section 6. Representations of Holder. The holder of this Warrant, by
the acceptance hereof, represents that it is acquiring this Warrant and the
Warrant Shares for its own account for investment only and not with a view
towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution of
this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, except pursuant to sales registered or
exempted under the Securities Act; provided, however, that by making the
representations herein, the holder does not agree to hold this Warrant or any of
the Warrant Shares for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right
to dispose of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares at any time in accordance with
or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities
Act. The holder of this Warrant further represents, by acceptance hereof, that,
as of this date, such holder is an "accredited investor" as such term is defined
in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act (an "Accredited Investor"). Upon exercise of
5
this Warrant, the holder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing,
in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are
being acquired solely for the holder's own account and not as a nominee for any
other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale
and that such holder is an Accredited Investor. If such holder cannot make such
representations because they would be factually incorrect, it shall be a
condition to such holder's exercise of this Warrant that the Company receive
such other representations as the Company considers reasonably necessary to
assure the Company that the issuance of its securities upon exercise of this
Warrant shall not violate any United States or state securities laws.
Section 7. Ownership and Transfer.
(a) The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or
such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the
holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record
the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued,
as well as the name and address of each transferee. The Company may treat the
person in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the owner and
holder thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, but
in all events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with the terms of
this Warrant.
(b) This Warrant and the rights granted to the holder hereof are
transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant, together with
a properly executed warrant power in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto;
provided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall be subject to the
conditions set forth in Section 7(c) below.
(c) The holder of this Warrant understands that this Warrant has not
been and is not expected to be, registered under the Securities Act or any state
securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred
unless (a) subsequently registered thereunder, or (b) such holder shall have
delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in generally acceptable form, to
the effect that the securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold,
assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration;
provided that (i) any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act may be made only in accordance with the
terms of said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of
such securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through
whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is
defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with some other exemption
under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission thereunder; and (ii) neither the Company nor any other
person is under any obligation to register the Warrants under the Securities Act
or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any
exemption thereunder.
Section 8. Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price and Number of Shares.
----------------------------------------------------------
(a) The Warrant Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted from time to time as
follows:
6
(i) Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price upon Subdivision or
Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time after the date of
issuance of this Warrant subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and
the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant
will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time after the date of
issuance of this Warrant combines (by combination, reverse stock split or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares
of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately
decreased.
(ii) Adjustment for Common Stock Dividends and Distributions.
If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of issuance of
this Warrant makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of
Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in
additional shares of Common Stock, in each such event the Warrant Exercise Price
in effect immediately prior to such issuance or, in the event such record date
is fixed as of the close of business on such record date will be proportionately
decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of
this Warrant will be proportionately increased as of the time of such issuance
or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such
record date.
(iii) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange and
Substitution. If at any time or from time to time after the date of issuance of
this Warrant, the Common Stock is changed into the same or a different number of
shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization,
reclassification or otherwise (other than an acquisition, asset transfer,
subdivision or combination of shares, stock dividend, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this Section 8(a)),
in any such event the holder hereof shall have the right thereafter to convert
such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property
receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by
holders of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares
of Common Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such
recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment
as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the
terms thereof.
(iv) Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or Sales of
Assets. If at any time or from time to time after the date of issuance of this
Warrant, there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than an
acquisition, asset transfer, recapitalization, or subdivision, combination,
reclassification, exchange, or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in
this Section 8(a)), as a part of such capital reorganization, provision shall be
made so that the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to receive
upon exercise hereof the number of shares of stock or other securities or
property of the Company to which a holder of the number of shares of Common
7
Stock deliverable upon exercise immediately prior to such event would have been
entitled as a result of such capital reorganization, subject to adjustment in
respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of
this Section 8(a) with respect to the rights of the holder hereof after the
capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 8 shall be
applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practical.
(v) Sale of Common Stock Below Current Market Value. If at any
time or from time to time on or after the date of issuance of this Warrant, the
Company shall sell, issue or dispose of any shares of Common Stock at a price
per share that is less than 95% of the Current Market Value thereof or shall
issue or distribute any options, warrants, or other Convertible Securities
providing for the issuance of Common Stock at a price per share less than 95% of
the Current Market Value, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be proportionately
decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be proportionately increased as of the date of such offering.
(vi) Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustment. All
calculations under this Section 8(a) shall be made to the nearest cent. Any
provision of this Section 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in
the Warrant Exercise Price shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would
be less than one percent, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an
adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with
any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount
or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate one percent or more.
(vii) Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon
Certain Adjustments. In any case in which the provisions of this Section 8(a)
shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a
record date for an event, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such
event issuing to the holder of this Warrant after such record date and before
the occurrence of such event the additional shares of Common Stock or other
property issuable or deliverable upon exercise by reason of the adjustment
required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock or other
property issuable or deliverable upon such exercise before giving effect to such
adjustment; provided, however, that the Company upon request shall deliver to
such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder's
right to receive such additional shares or other property, and such cash, upon
the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
(b) Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Exercise
Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section 8(a), and upon each change in the
number of shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the
Company shall forthwith file, at the office of any transfer agent for this
Warrant and at the principal office of the Company, a statement showing in
detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Warrant Exercise Price and
new number of shares issuable that shall be in effect after such adjustment, and
the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be given to the holder
of this Warrant. Each such statement shall be signed by the Company's chief
financial or accounting officer. Where appropriate, such copy may be given in
advance and may be included as part of a notice required to be mailed under the
provisions of Section 8(c).
8
(c) Notice to Holders. In the event the Company shall propose to take
any action of the type described in clause (iii) or (iv) of Section 8(a), the
Company shall give notice to the holder of this Warrant, in the manner set forth
in Section 11, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect
to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take
place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall
be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent
such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Warrant Exercise
Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property
which shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any
action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be
given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other
action, such notice shall be given at least 15 days prior to the taking of such
proposed action. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not
affect the legality or validity of any such action.
(d) Current Market Price. The "Current Market Price" shall mean, as of
any date, the average, for each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days immediately
prior to such date, of either: (i) the high and low sales prices of the Common
Stock on such Trading Day as reported on the composite tape for the principal
national securities exchange on which the Common Stock may then be listed, or
(ii) if the Common Stock shall not be so listed on any such Trading Day, the
high and low sales prices of Common Stock in the over-the-counter market as
reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market for National Market Securities, or (iii) if
the Common Shares shall not be included in the Nasdaq Stock Market as a National
Market Security on any such Trading Day, the representative bid and asked prices
at the end of such Trading Day in such market as reported by the Nasdaq Stock
Market or (iv) if there be no such representative prices reported by the Nasdaq
Stock Market, the lowest bid and highest asked prices at the end of such Trading
Day in the over-the-counter market as reported by the OTC Electronic Bulletin
Board or National Quotation Bureau, Inc., or any successor organization. For
purposes of determining Current Market Price, the term "Trading Day" shall mean
a day on which an amount greater than zero can be calculated with respect to the
Common Stock under any one or more of the foregoing categories (i), (ii), (iii)
and (iv), and the "end" thereof, for the purposes of categories (iii) and (iv),
shall mean the exact time at which trading shall end on the New York Stock
Exchange. If the Current Market Price cannot be determined under any of the
foregoing methods, Current Market Price shall mean the fair value per share of
Common Stock on such date as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith,
irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(e) Treasury Stock. For the purposes of this Section 3.1, the sale or
other disposition of any Common Stock of the Company theretofore held in its
treasury shall be deemed to be an issuance thereof.
Section 9. Vesting, Termination Without Vesting. This Warrant shall not
be exercisable until the date (the "Vesting Date") on which the Company has
completed an audit of the books and records as of December 31, 2002 and for the
9
twelve months then ended and received an opinion of Heard, McElroy & Vestal, LLP
regarding the preparation of such financial statements, and shall be exercisable
from and after the Vesting Date only with respect to the following percentage of
the total Warrants represented hereby:
Percentage of Total = ($4,497,058- A) - $400,000 x 100
--------------------------------
$500,000
Where:A = the consolidated net pre-tax earning of the
Company for the 12 months ended December 31,
2002, as reported on the date hereof
pursuant to the audit performed by Heard,
McElroy & Vestal LLP
In Example: If the audited consolidated net pre-tax earnings of the Company for
the 12 months ended December 31, 2002, were adjusted to $3,997,059 the warrants
shall be exercisable as follows:
Percentage of Total = ($4,497,058-$3,997,059)-400,000 x 100 = 19.99% of the
Warrants issued hereunder $500,000
Provided, however, that in no event shall the percentage of the total pursuant
to the forgoing formula exceed 100%. Any Warrants that do not vest as set forth
in this Section on the Vesting Date shall be deemed to be void and of no further
force or effect.
Section 10. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If this
Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company shall, on receipt
of an indemnification undertaking, issue a new Warrant of like denomination and
tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.
Section 11. Notice. Any notices, consents, waivers or other
communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Warrant
must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt,
when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided
confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and
kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one business day after deposit with
a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly
addressed to the party to receive the same. The addresses and facsimile numbers

nationally recognized overnight delivery service in accordance with clause (i),
(ii) or (iii) above, respectively.
Section 12. Amendments. This Warrant and any term hereof may be
changed, waived, discharged, or terminated only by an instrument in writing
signed by the party or holder hereof against which enforcement of such change,
waiver, discharge or termination is sought.
Section 13. Limitation on Number of Warrant Shares. The Company shall
not be obligated to issue any Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant if
the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would cause the Company to exceed
that number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon exercise
of this Warrant (the "Exchange Cap") without breaching the Company's obligations
under the rules or regulations of Principal Market, except that such limitation
shall not apply in the event that the Company obtains the approval of its
stockholders as required by the Principal Market (or any successor rule or
regulation) for issuances of Common Stock in excess of such amount. In the event
the Company is prohibited from issuing Warrant Shares as a result of the
operation of this Section 13, the Company shall redeem for cash those Warrant
Shares which can not be issued, at a price equal to the difference between the
Market Price and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the
attempted exercise.
Section 14. Date. This Warrant, in all events, shall be wholly void and
of no effect after 11:59 PM Central Time on the Expiration Date, except that
notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the provisions of Section 7 shall
continue in full force and effect after such date as to any Warrant Shares or
other securities issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.
11
Section 15. Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Warrant may
only be amended upon a written instrument executed by the Company and the
holders hereof.
Section 16. Descriptive Headings; Governing Law. The descriptive
headings of the several Sections and paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for
convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Warrant. The corporate
laws of the State of Texas shall govern all issues concerning the relative
rights of the Company and its stockholders. All other questions concerning the
construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be
governed by the internal laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to
any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of
Texas or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws
of any jurisdictions other than the State of Texas.
Section 17. Successors and Assigns. This Warrant shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and
assigns, including any purchasers of this Warrant. The Company shall not assign
this Warrant or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the holder of this Warrant, including by merger, consolidation or
reorganization. The holder of this Warrant may assign some or all of its rights
hereunder to (i) without the consent of the Company, any person or entity who,
immediately prior to such assignment, is an affiliate of such holder (a
"Permitted Assignee") and (ii) with the prior written consent of the Company,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to any person or entity which
is not a Permitted Assignee; provided, however, that any such assignment shall
not release the holder of this Warrant from its obligations hereunder unless
such obligations are assumed by such assignee and the Company has consented to
such assignment and assumption, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the holder
of this Warrant shall be entitled to pledge the this Warrant and the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in connection with a bona
fide margin account.
