2. EXERCISE OF WARRANTS.
2.1 GENERAL.
- ----------------------------
1 Insert "A" or "B"

Shares (total of fifty percent (50%) of the Issue Date Conversion Shares for the
Series A and Series B Warrants).
3 Insert the Closing Date.

(a) This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part
at any time and from time to time commencing on the Commencement Date (as
defined below). Such exercise shall be effectuated by submitting to the Company
(either by delivery to the Company or by facsimile transmission as provided in
Section 8 hereof) a completed and duly executed Notice of Exercise
(substantially in the form attached to this Warrant Certificate) as provided in
the Notice of Exercise (or revised by notice given by the Company as
contemplated by the Section headed "NOTICES" in the Agreement). The date such
Notice of Exercise is faxed to the Company shall be the "Exercise Date,"
provided that, if such exercise represents the full exercise of the outstanding
balance of the Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant tenders this Warrant
Certificate to the Company within five (5) Trading Days thereafter. The Notice
of Exercise shall be executed by the Holder of this Warrant and shall indicate
(i) the number of shares then being purchased pursuant to such exercise and (ii)
if applicable (as provided below), whether the exercise is a cashless exercise.
(b) The provisions of this Section 2.1(b) shall only
be applicable (i) on or after the first anniversary of the Issue Date, and (ii)
if, and only if, on the Exercise Date there is no effective Registration
Statement covering the Warrant Shares (other than during a Permitted Suspension
Period, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). If the Notice of
Exercise form elects a "cashless" exercise, the Holder shall thereby be entitled
to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (w) the excess of the
Current Market Value (as defined below) over the total cash exercise price of
the portion of the Warrant then being exercised, divided by (x) the Market Price
of the Common Stock. For the purposes of this Warrant, the terms (y) "Current
Market Value" shall mean an amount equal to the Market Price of the Common
Stock, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such
Notice of Exercise Form, and (z) "Market Price of the Common Stock" shall mean
the average Closing Price (as defined below) of the Common Stock for the three
(3) Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Exercise
Date.
(c) If the Notice of Exercise form elects a "cash"
exercise (or if the cashless exercise referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph (b) is not available in accordance with its terms), the Exercise Price
per share of Common Stock for the shares then being exercised shall be payable,
at the election of the Holder, in cash or by certified or official bank check or
by wire transfer in accordance with instructions provided by the Company at the
request of the Holder..
(d) Upon the appropriate payment, if any, of the
Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock purchased, together with the
surrender of this Warrant Certificate (if required), the Holder shall be
entitled to receive a certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock
so purchased. The Company shall deliver such certificates representing the
Warrant Shares in accordance with the instructions of the Holder as provided in
the Notice of Exercise (the certificates delivered in such manner, the "Warrant
Share Certificates") within three (3) Trading Days (such third Trading Day, a
"Warrant Share Delivery Date") of (i) with
2
respect to a "cashless exercise," the Exercise Date or, (ii) with respect to a
"cash" exercise, the later of the Exercise Date or the date the payment of the
Exercise Price for the relevant Warrant Shares is received by the Company.
(e) The Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of
the shares issuable to it in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.1
on the Exercise Date.
2.2 LIMITATION ON EXERCISE. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Warrant, the Agreement or of the other Transaction
Agreements, in no event (except (i) as specifically provided in this Warrant as
an exception to this provision, (ii) during the forty-five (45) day period prior
to the Expiration Date, or (iii) while there is outstanding a tender offer for
any or all of the shares of the Company's Common Stock) shall the Holder be
entitled to exercise this Warrant, or shall the Company have the obligation to
issue shares upon such exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant to the
extent that, after such exercise the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of
Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the
unexercised portion of the Warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or
through the ownership of the unconverted portion of convertible securities), and
(2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the
Warrants with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made,
would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more
than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (after taking into account
the shares to be issued to the Holder upon such exercise). For purposes of the
proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of
such sentence. The Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, further agrees
that if the Holder transfers or assigns any of the Warrants to a party who or
which would not be considered such an affiliate, such assignment shall be made
subject to the transferee's or assignee's specific agreement to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 2.2 as if such transferee or assignee were the
original Holder hereof.
2.3 CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. As used herein, each of the
following terms has the meaning set forth below, unless the context otherwise
requires:
(a) "Commencement Date" means the date which is the
earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after the Effective Date or (ii)
the first annual anniversary of the Closing Date.
(b) "Closing Price" means the 4:00 P.M. closing bid
price of the Common Stock on the Principal Trading Market on the relevant
Trading Day(s), as reported by the Reporting Service for the relevant date.
3
(c) "Expiration Date" means the date which the last
calendar of the month in which the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date
occurs
(d) "Reporting Service" means Bloomberg LP or if
that service is not then reporting the relevant information regarding the Common
Stock, a comparable reporting service of national reputation selected by a
Majority in Interest of the Holders and reasonably acceptable to the Company.
3. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company hereby agrees that at
all times during the term of this Warrant there shall be reserved for issuance
upon exercise of this Warrant
(x) until the Final Lock-up Date, one hundred five percent (105%), and
(y) thereafter, one hundred percent (100%)
of the number of shares of its Common Stock as shall be required for issuance of
the Warrant Shares for the then unexercised portion of this Warrant. For the
purposes of such calculations, the Company should assume that the outstanding
portion of this Warrants were exercisable in full at any time, without regard to
any restrictions which might limit the Holder's right to exercise any portion of
this Warrant held by the Holder.
4. MUTILATION OR LOSS OF WARRANT. Upon receipt by the
Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction)
receipt of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and (in the case of
mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will
execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date and any such lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall thereupon become void.
5. RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER. The Holder shall not, by virtue
hereof, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law
or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this
Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set
forth herein.
6. PROTECTION AGAINST DILUTION AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS.
4
6.1 ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM. If an adjustment of the
Exercise Price is required pursuant to this Section 6 (other than pursuant to
Section 6.4), the Holder shall be entitled to purchase such number of shares of
Common Stock as will cause (i) (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock
Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to this Warrant following such
adjustment, multiplied by (y) the adjusted Exercise Price per share, to equal
the result of (ii) (x) the dollar amount of the total number of shares of Common
Stock Holder is entitled to purchase before adjustment, multiplied by (y) the
total Exercise Price before adjustment.4
6.2 CAPITAL ADJUSTMENTS. In case of any stock split
or reverse stock split, stock dividend, reclassification of the Common Stock,
recapitalization, merger or consolidation (where the Company is not the
surviving entity), the provisions of this Section 6 shall be applied as if such
capital adjustment event had occurred immediately prior to the date of this
Warrant and the original Exercise Price had been fairly allocated to the stock
resulting from such capital adjustment; and in other respects the provisions of
this Section shall be applied in a fair, equitable and reasonable manner so as
to give effect, as nearly as may be, to the purposes hereof. A rights offering
to stockholders shall be deemed a stock dividend to the extent of the bargain
purchase element of the rights. The Company will not effect any consolidation or
merger, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor or acquiring
entity (if other than the Company) and, if an entity different from the
successor or acquiring entity, the entity whose capital stock or assets the
holders of the Common Stock of the Company are entitled to receive as a result
of such consolidation or merger assumes by written instrument the obligations
under this Warrant (including under this Section 6) and the obligations to
deliver to the holder of this Warrant such shares of stock, securities or assets
as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be entitled to
acquire.
6.3 ADJUSTMENT FOR SPIN OFF. If, for any reason,
prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full, the Company spins off or
otherwise divests itself of a part of its business or operations or disposes all
or of a part of its assets in a transaction (the "Spin Off") in which the
Company does not receive compensation for such business, operations or assets,
but causes securities of another entity (the "Spin Off Securities") to be issued
to security holders of the Company, then the Company shall cause (i) to be
reserved Spin Off Securities equal to the number thereof which would have been
issued to the Holder had all of the Holder's unexercised Warrants outstanding on
the record date (the "Record Date") for determining the amount and number of
Spin Off Securities to be issued to security holders of the Company (the
"Outstanding Warrants") been exercised as of the close of business on the
Trading Day immediately before the Record Date (the "Reserved Spin Off Shares"),
and (ii) to be issued to the Holder on the exercise
- ----------------------------
4 Example: Assume 10,000 shares remain under Warrant at original stated Exercise
Price of US$1.50. Total exercise price (clause (y) in text) is (i) 10,000 x (ii)
US$1.50, or US$15,000. Company effects 2:1 stock split. Exercise Price is
adjusted to US$0.75. Number of shares covered by Warrant is adjusted to 20,000,
because (applying clause (x) in text) (i) 20,000 x (ii) US$0.75 = US$15,000.
5
of all or any of the Outstanding Warrants, such amount of the Reserved Spin Off
Shares equal to (x) the Reserved Spin Off Shares, multiplied by (y) a fraction,
of which (I) the numerator is the amount of the Outstanding Warrants then being
exercised, and (II) the denominator is the amount of the Outstanding Warrants.
6.4 ADJUSTMENT FOR CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS. Reference
is made to the provisions of Section 4(g) of the Agreement, the terms of which
are incorporated herein by reference. The number of shares covered by this
Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in the applicable
provisions of said Section 4(g) of the Agreement.
7. TRANSFER TO COMPLY WITH THE SECURITIES ACT; REGISTRATION
RIGHTS.
7.1 TRANSFER. This Warrant has not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") and has been issued to
the Holder for investment and not with a view to the distribution of either the
Warrant or the Warrant Shares. Neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant
Shares or any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
may be sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective
registration statement under the Act relating to such security or an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to the Company that registration is not required under the
Act. Each certificate for the Warrant, the Warrant Shares and any other security
issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall contain a legend on the
face thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Company,
setting forth the restrictions on transfer contained in this Section.
7.2 REGISTRATION RIGHTS. (a) Reference is made to
the Registration Rights Agreement. The Company's obligations under the
Registration Rights Agreement and the other terms and conditions thereof with
respect to the Warrant Shares, including, but not necessarily limited to, the
Company's commitment to file a registration statement including the Warrant
Shares, to have the registration of the Warrant Shares completed and effective,
and to maintain such registration, are incorporated herein by reference.
(b) In addition to the registration rights referred
to in the preceding provisions of Section 7.2(a), effective after the expiration
of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement as contemplated by the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Holder shall have piggy-back registration
rights with respect to the Warrant Shares then held by the Holder or then
subject to issuance upon exercise of this Warrant (collectively, the "Remaining
Warrant Shares"), subject to the conditions set forth below. If, at any time
after the Registration Statement has ceased to be effective, the Company
participates (whether voluntarily or by reason of an obligation to a third
party) in the registration of any shares of the Company's stock (other than a
registration on Form S-8 or on Form S-4), the Company shall give written notice
thereof to the Holder and the Holder shall have the right, exercisable within
ten (10) Trading Days after receipt of such notice, to demand inclusion of all
or a portion of the Holder's Remaining Warrant Shares in such registration
statement. If the Holder exercises such election, the Remaining Warrant
6
Shares so designated shall be included in the registration statement at no cost
or expense to the Holder (other than any costs or commissions which would be
borne by the Holder under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement). The
Holder's rights under this Section 7 shall expire at such time as the Holder can
sell all of the Remaining Warrant Shares under Rule 144 without volume or other
restrictions or limit.
8. BUY-IN AMOUNT.
(a) If, by the relevant Warrant Share Delivery Date, the
Company fails for any reason to deliver the relevant Warrant Share Certificates,
and after such Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Holder who has exercised this
Warrant (an "Exercising Holder") purchases, in an arm's-length open market
transaction or otherwise, shares of Common Stock (the "Covering Shares") in
order to make delivery in satisfaction of a sale of Common Stock by the
Exercising Holder (the "Sold Shares"), which delivery such Exercising Holder
anticipated to make using the shares to be issued upon such exercise (a
"Buy-In"), the Exercising Holder shall have the right to require the Company to
pay to the Exercising Holder, in addition to and not in lieu of all other
amounts contemplated in other provisions of the Transaction Agreements, the
Warrant Share Buy-In Adjustment Amount (as defined below). The Company shall pay
the Warrant Share Buy-In Adjustment Amount to the Exercising Holder in
immediately available funds immediately upon demand by the Exercising Holder.
(b) The term "Warrant Share Buy-In Adjustment Amount" means
the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Exercising Holder's total
purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Covering Shares
over (ii) the net proceeds (after brokerage commissions, if any) received by the
Exercising Holder from the sale of the Sold Shares. By way of illustration and
not in limitation of the foregoing, if the Exercising Holder purchases shares of
Common Stock having a total purchase price (including brokerage commissions) of
$11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to shares of Common Stock it sold for net
proceeds of $10,000, the Warrant Share Buy-In Adjustment Amount which the
Company will be required to pay to the Exercising Holder will be $1,000.
9. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted hereunder
shall be given in manner provided in the Section headed "NOTICES" in the
Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
10. SUPPLEMENTS AND AMENDMENTS; WHOLE AGREEMENT. This
Warrant may be amended or supplemented only by an instrument in writing signed
by the parties hereto. This Warrant contains the full understanding of the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and there
are no representations, warranties, agreements or understandings other than
expressly contained herein and therein.
7
11. GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be deemed to be a
contract made under the laws of the State of New York for contracts to be wholly
performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof
regarding the conflict of laws. Each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction
of the federal courts whose districts encompass any part of the County of New
York or the state courts of the State of New York sitting in the County of New
York in connection with any dispute arising under this Warrant and hereby
waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any
objection based on FORUM NON CONVENIENS, to the bringing of any such proceeding
in such jurisdictions. To the extent determined by such court, the Company shall
reimburse the Holder for any reasonable legal fees and disbursements incurred by
the Buyer in enforcement of or protection of any of its rights under any of the
Transaction Agreements.
12. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. The Company and the Holder hereby
waive a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by
either of the Parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising
out or in connection with this Warrant.
13. REMEDIES. The Company stipulates that the remedies at
law of the Holder of this Warrant in the event of any default or threatened
default by the Company in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms
of this Warrant are not and will not be adequate and that, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for the
specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction
against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.
14. COUNTERPARTS. This Warrant may be executed in any number
of counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed
to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one
and the same instrument.
