the Warrants, temporarily or permanently. Capitalized terms used and
not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”),
accepted as of November 19, 2009, entered into by the Company and the
Holder.
As used
herein the following terms, unless the context otherwise requires, have the

replacement of Common Stock or Other Securities pursuant to Section 4 or
otherwise.
1
(d) The
term “Warrant Shares”
shall mean the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
1. Exercise of
Warrant.
1.1. Number of Shares Issuable
upon Exercise. From and after the Issue Date through and
including the Expiration Date, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive,
upon exercise of this Warrant in whole in accordance with the terms of
subsection 1.2 or upon exercise of this Warrant in part in accordance with
subsection 1.3, shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to
adjustment pursuant to Section 4.
1.2. Full
Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in full by the Holder
hereof by delivery of an original or facsimile copy of the form of subscription
attached as Exhibit A
hereto (the “Subscription
Form”) duly executed by such Holder and delivery within two days
thereafter of payment, in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank
check payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable
by the Purchase Price then in effect. The original Warrant is not
required to be surrendered to the Company until it has been fully
exercised.
1.3. Partial
Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a
fractional share) by delivery of a Subscription Form in the manner and at the
place provided in subsection 1.2 except that the amount payable by the
Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying
(a) the number of whole shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in
the Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in
effect. On any such partial exercise provided the Holder has
surrendered the original Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith
issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant of
like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by
such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, the whole number of
shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be
exercised.
1.4. Fair Market Value.
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the "Determination Date") shall
mean:
(a) If
the Company's Common Stock is traded on an exchange or is quoted on the NASDAQ
Global Market, Nasdaq Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market, the New
York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, LLC, OTC Bulletin Board, or
Pink Sheets LLC, then the average of the closing or last sale prices,
respectively, reported for the ten trading days immediately preceding the
Determination Date;
(b) If
the Company's Common Stock is not traded on an exchange or on the NASDAQ Global
Market, Nasdaq Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market, the New York
Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, LLC, OTC Bulletin Board, or Pink
Sheets LLC, but is traded in the over-the-counter market, then the average of
the closing bid and ask prices reported for the ten trading days immediately
preceding the Determination Date;
(c) Except
as provided in clause (d) below and Section 3.1, if the Company's Common
Stock is not publicly traded, then as the Holder and the Company agree, or in
the absence of such an agreement, by arbitration in accordance with the rules
then standing of the American Arbitration Association, before a single
arbitrator to be chosen from a panel of persons qualified by education and
training to pass on the matter to be decided with such arbitration to be
conducted in New York City, New York; or
(d) If
the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up,
or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to
the Company's charter, then all amounts to be payable per share to holders of
the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, plus all other amounts to be payable per share in
respect of the Common Stock in liquidation under the charter, assuming for the
purposes of this clause (d) that all of the shares of Common Stock then
issuable upon exercise of all of the Warrants are outstanding at the
Determination Date.
2
1.5. Company
Acknowledgment. The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the
Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof acknowledge in writing its
continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder
shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the
provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such request,
such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford
to such Holder any such rights.
1.6. Trustee for Warrant
Holders. In the event that a bank or trust company shall have been
appointed as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants pursuant to
Subsection 3.2, such bank or trust company shall have all the powers and
duties of a warrant agent (as hereinafter described) and shall accept, in its
own name for the account of the Company or such successor person as may be
entitled thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such
successor, as the case may be, on exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this
Section 1.
1.7 Delivery of Stock
Certificates, etc. on Exercise. The Company agrees that the shares of
Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be
issued to the Holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close
of business on the date on which delivery of a Subscription Form shall have
occurred and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as practicable
after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within
ten (10) business days thereafter (“Warrant Share Delivery Date”),
the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue
taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder
hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable
transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a
certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which
such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional
share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such
fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share of Common
Stock, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including
cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise
pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise. The Company understands that
a delay in the delivery of the Warrant Shares after the Warrant Share Delivery
Date could result in economic loss to the Holder. The Company shall
not, however, be responsible for any out of pocket or potential lost profits as
a result of a decline in stock price during any delay. Furthermore,
in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Holder, in the
event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Warrant
Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Holder may revoke all or part of
the relevant Warrant exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to the
Company, whereupon the Company and the Holder shall each be restored to their
respective positions immediately prior to the exercise of the relevant portion
of this Warrant.
2. Cashless
Exercise.
(a) This
Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part either in (i) cash, wire
transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the
Company equal to the applicable aggregate Purchase Price, (ii) by delivery of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with
Section (b) below or (iii) by a combination of any of the
foregoing methods, for the number of Common Stock specified in such form (as
such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder per the terms of this
Warrant) and the holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of
duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.
3
(b) Subject
to the provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair Market Value of one share
of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation
as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the holder may
elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant
(or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the
principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Subscription
Form in which event the Company shall issue to the holder a number of shares of
Common Stock computed using the following formula:
X=Y (A-B)
A
|
Where
|
X=
|
the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the
holder
|
|
|
Y=
|
the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only
a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant
being exercised (at the date of such
calculation)
|
|
|
A=
|
the
average of the closing sale prices of the Common Stock for the ten (10)
Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date,
or Fair Market Value, whichever is
less
|
|
|
B=
|
Purchase
Price (as adjusted to the date of such
calculation)
|
For
purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, it is intended, understood
and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise
transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding
period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date
this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Subscription
Agreement.
3. Adjustment for
Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Subsequent Share Issuances
etc.
3.1. Fundamental Transaction.
If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (A) the Company
effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another entity, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or
substantially all of its assets in one or
a series of related transactions, (C)
any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the
Company or another entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common
Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their
shares for other securities, cash or property, (D) the
Company consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination
(including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or
scheme of arrangement) with one or more persons or entities whereby such other
persons or entities acquire more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by such other
persons or entities making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the
other persons or entities making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or
other business combination), (E) any "person" or "group" (as these terms are
used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act) is or shall
become the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act),
directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the
Company, or (F) 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, upon any subsequent exercise of this
Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that
would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the
occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the
Holder, (a) 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 any additional
consideration (the "Alternate
Consideration") 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 or (b) if the Company is acquired in (1) a transaction
where the consideration paid to the holders of the Common Stock consists solely
of cash, (2) a “Rule 13e-3 transaction” as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the 1934
Act, or (3) a transaction involving a person or entity not traded on a national
securities exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market
or the Nasdaq Capital Market, cash equal to the Black-Scholes
Value. For purposes of any such exercise, the
determination of the Purchase Price shall
be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate
Consideration based on the amount of
Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common
Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and
the Company shall apportion the Purchase 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 Transaction. To the extent
necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, 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 exercise such warrant into Alternate
Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a
Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such
successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of
this Section 3.1 and insuring that this Warrant (or any such
replacement security) will be
similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a
Fundamental Transaction. “Black-Scholes Value” shall be determined in
accordance with the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV”
function on Bloomberg L.P. using (i) a price per share of Common Stock equal to
the VWAP of the Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately preceding the date
of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (ii) a
risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period
equal to the remaining term of this Warrant as of the date of such request and
(iii) an expected volatility equal to the 100 day volatility obtained from the
HVT function on Bloomberg L.P. determined as of the Trading Day immediately
following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental
Transaction.
4
3.2. Dissolution. In
the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or
substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such
dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and
other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by
the Holder of the Warrants after the effective date of such dissolution pursuant
to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company (a "Trustee") having its
principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the Holder of the
Warrants. Such property shall be delivered only upon payment of the
Warrant exercise price.
3.3. Continuation of
Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or
transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this
Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the
terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable
on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization,
consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such
transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other
Securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring
all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or
not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as
provided in Section 4. In the event this Warrant does not
continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction
described in this Section 3, then only in such event will the Company's
securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the
Holder of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by
Section 3.2.
5
3.4. Anti-Dilution.
(a) Anti
Dilution. Other than in connection with an Excepted Issuance
(as defined below), if at any time while any part of the Warrants are
outstanding, the Company shall agree to or actually issue or grant the right to
receive any Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable
for shares of Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be
outstanding) (“Common Stock Equivalent”) to
any person or entity at a price per share or conversion price or exercise price
per share which shall be less than the Warrant exercise price in respect of the
Warrant Shares then in effect (“Lower Price Issuance”),
without the consent of the Holder of such Warrant, then the Warrant exercise
price shall automatically and without further action be reduced to an amount
equal to the product of the Warrant exercise price then in effect multiplied by
a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock
which the aggregate purchase price or exercise price for such Common Stock
(plus, if applicable, the aggregate consideration received from the issuance of
the Common Stock Equivalents) would purchase at the then current Warrant
exercise price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding or deemed to be outstanding immediately after such
issuance. For so long as a Warrant is outstanding upon the occurrence
of a Lower Price Issuance, the Warrant exercise price shall be reduced to an
amount equal to the product of the Warrant exercise price then in effect
multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of
Common Stock which the aggregate purchase price or exercise price for such
Common Stock (plus, if applicable, the aggregate consideration received from the
issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents) would purchase at the then current
Warrant exercise price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding or deemed to be outstanding immediately after such
issuance; provided, however, that the Warrant exercise price shall not, as a
result of a Lower Price Issuance, be reduced to below $0.10 per share (but may
be reduced below said amount as a result of stock splits, combinations, mergers
or similar organic changes as provided herein).
(b) Effective
Price. For purposes of Section 3.4 in connection with
any issuance of any Common Stock Equivalents, (A) the maximum number of shares
of Common Stock potentially issuable at any time upon conversion, exercise or
exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents (the “Deemed Number”) shall be
deemed to be outstanding or subscribed for and required to be issued upon
issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents, (B) the deemed issue price (“Effective Price”) applicable
to such Common Stock shall equal the minimum dollar value of consideration
payable to the Company to purchase such Common Stock Equivalents and to convert,
exercise or exchange them into Common stock (net of any discounts, fees,
commissions and other expenses), divided by the Deemed number, and (C) no
further adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Price upon the actual
issuance of Common Stock upon conversion exercise or exchange of such Common
Stock Equivalents if issued at or higher than the Effective
Price. Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no
consideration will be deemed to have been issued or to be issuable for $0.0001
per share of Common Stock.
(c) Excepted
Issuances. The rights of each Warrant Holder set forth
in this Section 3.4 are in addition to any other rights the Holder has pursuant
to this Agreement, any Transaction Document, and any other agreement referred to
or entered into in connection herewith or to which such Holder and Company are
parties. For purposes of Section 3.4, “Excepted Issuance” shall mean
(i) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent described
in Reports filed not later than five business days before the Closing Date, (ii)
as a result of the conversion of any the Notes or exercise of any of
the Warrants issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement or any of securities
or warrants issued to the Placement Agent acting in connection with the sale of
these Warrants (including the exercise or conversion of any of the foregoing),
(iii) other notes or convertible indebtedness or convertible securities existing
or otherwise disclosed at or before the issuance hereof, (iv) any securities
issued in connection with a bonafide acquisition of a business, intellectual
property or business assets, or exercise of Warrants or conversion of Notes
which are granted or issued pursuant to this Agreement, or (v) as granted in
connection with any existing board approved stock option, incentive or similar
plan or any stock option plan approved by the Board of Directors of the Company
and the Placement Agent.

4. Extraordinary Events
Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall
(a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other
distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such
event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such
event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The
Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the
happening of any successive event or events described herein in this
Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this
Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof, be entitled to receive shall
be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common
Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4 be issuable
on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price
that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4 be in effect, and
(b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such
exercise.
5. Certificate as to
Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in
the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the
Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial
Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment
in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting
forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which
such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the
consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued
or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the
number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant,
in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted
or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a
copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent
of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).
6. Reservation of Stock, etc.
Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial
Statements. The Company will at all times reserve and
keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the
Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time
issuable on the exercise of the Warrant. This Warrant entitles the
Holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information
distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company's Common
Stock.
7. Assignment; Exchange of
Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable securities
laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any
registered holder hereof (a "Transferor"). On the surrender
for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor's endorsement in the form of
Exhibit B
attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form")
and together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company
that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable
securities laws, the Company will issue and deliver to or on the order of the
Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the
Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement
Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the
aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock
called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the
Transferor.
8. Replacement of
Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in
the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of
an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to
the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at the Holder’s expense, will execute
and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
7
9. Subscription
Agreement. The terms of the Subscription Agreement are
incorporated herein by this reference.
10. Maximum
Exercise. The Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this
Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common
Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise
date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this
limitation is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial
ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock on such date. For the purposes of the
immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities 1934 Act , and Rule
13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be
limited to aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than
4.99%. The restriction described in this paragraph may be
waived, in whole or in part, upon sixty-one (61) days prior notice from the
Holder to the Company to increase such percentage to up to 9.99%, but not in
excess of 9.99%. The Holder may decide whether to convert a
Convertible Note or exercise this Warrant to achieve an actual 4.99% or up to
9.99% ownership position as described above, but not in excess of
9.99%.
11. Warrant
Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the
Warrant, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the
purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this
Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to
Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of
the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the
case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.
12. Transfer on the Company's
Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the
Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute
owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary.
13. Notices. All
notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications
