or the Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or

WARRANT AGREEMENT
WARRANT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of June 14, 1996 by
and between CHENIERE ENERGY OPERATING CO., INC., a Delaware corporation ("the
Company"), and _____________________ (the "Holder").
PRELIMINARY RECITALS
A. The Company desires to issue to Holder a right to purchase shares
of common stock, no par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company in
consideration of value received by the Company from Holder, as set forth in that
certain agreement dated as of June 14, 1996 (the "Purchase Agreement") between
the Company and the Holder with respect to the purchase by Holder of a
promissory note and common stock purchase warrant of the Company.
X. Xxxxxx desires to participate in the future growth prospects of
the Company and is willing to accept and receive a right to purchase shares of
Common Stock of the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, the Company and Holder agree as follows:
1. GRANT OF WARRANT. The Company hereby grants to Holder a warrant
to purchase up to ____________ shares of Common Stock at the purchase price of
________ per share (the "Warrant"), such Warrant to be exercisable as
hereinafter provided, evidenced by a warrant certificate in the form attached as
Exhibit A hereto (the "Warrant Certificate").
2. EXERCISE PERIOD. Subject to the other terms of this Agreement
regarding the exercisability of the Warrant, the Warrant shall be exercisable
during the period (the "Exercise Period") commencing on the date hereof and
expiring on June 14, 1999.
3. EXERCISE OF WARRANT
(a) This Warrant may be exercised, from time to time, in whole or in
part, at any time prior to the expiration thereof. Any exercise shall be
accompanied by written notice to the Company specifying the number of shares as
to which this Warrant is being exercised, in the form attached to the Warrant
Certificate. Notations of any partial exercise or instalment exercise, shall be
made by the Company and attached as a schedule hereto.
(b) The Company shall issue the Warrant Certificate or certificates
evidencing the Warrant Shares within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such
notice and payment as hereinafter provided.
10
4. PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE UPON EXERCISE. At the time of any
exercise of the Warrant the purchase price for the Warrant Shares shall be paid
in full to the Company by check or other immediately available funds.
5. PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT; RESALE RESTRICTIONS. The Holder hereby
represents, and each assignee of Holder as a condition to transfer shall
represent, that he is acquiring or will acquire the Warrant and the Warrant
Shares for his own account, for investment only with no present intention of
distributing or reselling such securities or any part thereof. Unless at the
time of the acquisition of the Warrant or the exercise of the Warrant, as the
case may be, there shall be, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, a valid
and effective registration statement under the Securities Xxx 0000 ("1933 Act")
and appropriate qualification and registration under applicable state securities
laws relating to the Warrant or the Warrant Shares, as the case may be, the
Holder shall, prior to the assignment of the Warrant or upon exercise of the
Warrant or any portion thereof, as the case may be, give a representation that
he is acquiring such Warrant or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, for his own
account, only for investment and not with the view to the resale or distribution
of any of such securities. In the absence of such registration statement, the
Holder shall execute a written affirmation, in form reasonably satisfactory to
the Company, of such investment intent. The Holder further agrees that he will
not sell or transfer the Warrant or any Warrant Shares, as the case may be,
until he requests and receives an opinion from the Company's counsel, or other
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such proposed
sale or transfer will not result in a violation of the 1933 Act or a
registration statement covering the sale or transfer of the Warrant or Warrant
Shares, as the case may be, has been declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"), or he obtains a no action letter from the SEC with
respect to the proposed transfer. There shall be stamped on the certificate(s)
representing the Warrant or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, an appropriate
legend giving notice of the acquisition of such Warrant or Warrant Shares, as
the case may be, for investment and the restriction on their transfer by reason
thereof.
6. EXCHANGE FOR BEXY WARRANTS. Holder agrees to exchange this
Warrant for a warrant to purchase shares of common stock, $.003 par value per
share ("BEXY Stock"), of BEXY Communications, Inc. ("BEXY") at the closing (the
"Closing") of the reorganization of BEXY contemplated by that certain Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization dated as of April 16, 1996 ("Reorganization
Agreement") among the Company, the stockholders of the Company, BEXY and Xxxxx
Xxxxx. At the Closing, Holder shall present and deliver the Warrant, together
with a properly completed assignment, to BEXY and, upon execution and delivery
of a warrant agreement between Holder and BEXY, receive a warrant to purchase
BEXY Stock (the "BEXY Warrant"). The BEXY Warrant received by Holder shall be
exercisable for ten thousand (10,000) shares of BEXY Stock for each share of
Common Stock for which the Warrant may be exercised. The purchase price for each
share of BEXY stock shall be $3 per share and shall have the same Exercise
Period as the Warrant and other terms that are substantially the same as the
Warrant.
7. NO RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDER. The Holder shall have no rights as a
stockholder with respect to any Warrant Shares prior to the date of purchase
thereof and issuance to him of a certificate or certificates for such shares.
11
8. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW AND REGULATIONS. This Agreement and the
obligation of the Company to sell and deliver the Warrant and the Warrant Shares
shall be subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations
and to such approvals by any government or regulatory agency as may be required.
If, at any time, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that (a)
the listing, registration or qualification of the Warrant Shares upon any
securities exchange or under any state or federal law or (b) the consent or
approval of any government regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a
condition to, or in connection with, the offer, sale and issuance of the Warrant
Shares, the Warrant shall not be exercised by the Holder in whole or in part
unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or agreement
shall have been effected or obtained, free of any conditions not acceptable to
the Board of Directors of the Company.
9. TAX WITHHOLDING REQUIREMENTS. The Company shall have the right to
require the Holder to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any
federal, state or local withholding or other tax requirements applicable to the
sale of the Warrant or the issuance and sale of the Warrant Shares prior to the
delivery of any Warrant Certificate or Certificates for the Warrant Shares.
10. FRACTIONAL SHARES. To the extent required, fractional shares of
stock shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant up to but not more than
the nearest one millionth of a share (.000001). The Company shall not be under
any obligation to compensate the Holder in any way for fractional shares in less
than such amounts.
11. SEVERABILITY. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of
this Agreement.
12. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one
party, but all of such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the
same Agreement.

and shall not be used in the interpretation hereof.
14. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon any
and all successors and assigns of the parties.
15. AMENDMENTS. This Agreement may not be modified, amended,
altered, or supplemented except upon the execution and delivery of a written
agreement executed by Holder and the Company.
16. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be construed according to the
laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of law
provisions thereof, and all
12
provisions hereof shall be administered according to and its validity shall be
determined under, the laws of such state, except where preempted by federal
laws.
