No. NS-03 Right to Purchase 500,000 Shares
STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, Northstar High Total Return
Fund (the "Original Holder"), or registered successors or assigns, is entitled
to purchase from Source Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at
any time or from time to time during the period specified in Paragraph 2
hereof, 500,000 fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's Common
Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at an exercise price per
share of $6.00 (the "Exercise Price"). The term "Warrant Shares", as used
herein, refers to the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. The
Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided in
Paragraph 4 hereof. This Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Warrant amends
and restates in its entirety that certain Stock Purchase Warrant, dated April
3, 1996, issued to the Original Holder.
This Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions, and
conditions:
1. Manner of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates; Payment for Shares.
Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder
hereof, in whole or in part (but not as to a fractional Warrant Share), by the
surrender of this Warrant, together with a completed Exercise Agreement in the
form attached hereto, to the Company during normal business hours on any
business day at the Company's principal office at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx
0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000 (or such other office or agency of the Company as it
may designate by notice to the holder hereof), and upon payment to the Company
of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in said Exercise Agree-
ment. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the
holder hereof or its designee as the record owner of such shares as of the
close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered, the completed
4
Exercise Agreement delivered, and payment made for such shares as aforesaid.
Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased, representing the aggregate
number of shares specified in said Exercise Agreement, shall be delivered to
the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding seven business days,
after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered
shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the holder hereof and
shall be registered in the name of said holder. If this Warrant shall have
been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company
shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of said certificates, deliver to
said holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to
which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. The Company shall pay
all taxes and other expenses and charges payable in connection with the prepa-
ration, execution, and delivery of stock certificates (and any new Warrants)
pursuant to this Paragraph 1 except that, in case such stock certificates shall
be registered in a name or names other than the holder of this Warrant, funds
sufficient to pay all stock transfer taxes which shall be payable in connection
with the execution and delivery of such stock certificates shall be paid by the
holder hereof to the Company at the time of the delivery of such stock
certificates by the Company as mentioned above.
Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following
methods:
(i) Cash Exercise. By payment to the Company of the Exercise
Price in cash or by certified or official bank check, for each share
being purchased;
(ii) Surrender of Notes. By surrender to the Company for
cancellation of any Note or Notes (as such terms are defined in that
certain Amended and Restated Note Agreement, dated as of March 31, 1997
(the "Amended and Restated Note Agreement"), among the Company, IT
Network, Inc., the Original Holder and the other Purchasers named
therein), or any portion of a Note, for which credit shall be given
toward the Exercise Price on a dollar-for-dollar basis with reference to
the principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest cancelled;
(iii) Net Issue Exercise. By an election to receive shares the
aggregate fair market value of which as of the date of exercise is equal
to the fair market value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being
exercised) on such date, in which event the Company, upon receipt of
notice of such election, shall issue to the holder hereof a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to (A) the number of shares of Common Stock
acquirable upon exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant being
exercised, as at such date, multiplied by (B) the balance remaining
after deducting (x) the Exercise Price, as in effect on such date, from
(y) the market price of one share of Common Stock as at such date
(determined as provided in Paragraph 4(e) hereof) and dividing the
result by (C) such market price; provided, however, that payment of the
Exercise Price pursuant to this method may be made only to the extent
that the aggregate outstanding principal
-2-
5
amount of the Notes held by the holder of this Warrant on the date of
such election has been paid in full; or
(iv) Combined Payment Method. By satisfaction of the Exercise
Price for such shares acquired in combination of the methods described
in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii).
2. Period of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 2(a)
and (b) below, this Warrant is exercisable at any time after the date hereof,
and before 5:00 p.m., Dallas time, on March 31, 2004.
(a) Call Option of the Company.
(i) Subject to the satisfaction in full of the
conditions set forth in subparagraph (ii) below, at any time
after the second anniversary of the date hereof, the Company may,
by written notice to the holder of this Warrant (the "Call
Notice"), elect to purchase this Warrant (or any new Warrant then
held by such holder representing the number of shares with
respect to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised), in
whole, on the Effective Date of Call (as defined below), at a
cash price for this Warrant equal to the product of (x) $.01
multiplied by (y) the number of shares with respect to which this
Warrant shall not have been exercised on such date. As used in
this Paragraph 2(a), the term "Effective Date of Call" shall mean
the later of (x) 60 days from the date of the Call Notice or (y)
60 days from the date a registration statement covering the
Warrant Shares shall have become effective, which registration
statement was filed by the Company upon the receipt of requests
made (including a request made by the holder of this Warrant)
prior to the Effective Date of Call and pursuant to the Amended
and Restated Registration Rights Agreement dated as of the date
hereof, among the Company, the Original Holder and the other
persons named therein.
(ii) The Company's right to exercise the purchase option
referred to in subparagraph (i) above is conditional upon the
last reported sales price of the Common Stock (determined as
provided in Paragraph 4(e) hereof) having being equal to at least
200% of the Exercise Price then in effect for 30 of the 40
consecutive Trading Days (as defined below) immediately prior to
the date of the Call Notice.
(iii) If the conditions referred to above have been
satisfied in full (including, without limitation, the giving of a
Call Notice), the holder shall present this Warrant to the
Company at its office referred to in Paragraph 1 hereof on the
Effective Date of Call, and upon surrender thereof shall be
entitled to receive the cash price to which such holder is
entitled, by wire
-3-
6
transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated
by the holder hereof or by delivery to such holder of a certified
or official bank check in New York Clearing House Funds payable
to the order of such holder. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary implied in this Paragraph 2(a), until the Effective Date
of Call the holder of this Warrant shall continue to be entitled
to exercise any and all of the rights granted to it herein.
(b) Repurchase Obligation of the Company. If at any time
there occurs a Change of Control (as defined in the Amended and Restated
Note Agreement), then the Company shall give to the holder of this
Warrant notice of such Change of Control within 5 days of its
occurrence. Not later than 60 days (the "Put Election Period") after
such notice by the Company, the holder of this Warrant (or any new
Warrant then held by such holder representing the number of shares with
respect to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised) may, by
written notice to the Company, elect to sell to the Company, and the
Company shall purchase from such holder, this Warrant, in whole, at an
aggregate cash price (the "Put Price") equal to the greater of (x) the
Net Warrant Market Price (as defined below) and (y) $1,500,000. The
holder shall present this Warrant to the Company at its office referred
to in Paragraph 1 hereof on or before the 30th day following the
expiration of the Put Election Period, and upon surrender thereof shall
be entitled to receive the cash price to which such holder is entitled,
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated
by the holder hereof or by delivery to such holder of a certified or
official bank check in New York Clearing House Funds payable to the
order of such holder. As used in this Paragraph 2(b), the term "Net
Warrant Market Price" shall mean an amount equal to the product of (x)
the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not have
been exercised, multiplied by (y) the difference between the market
price per Warrant Share (determined as provided in Paragraph 4(e)
hereof) on the date of the Put Notice and the Exercise Price then in
effect.
3. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company hereby covenants
and agrees as follows:
(a) Shares to be Fully Paid. All Warrant Shares will, upon
issuance, be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.
(b) Reservation of Shares. During the period within which
this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have
authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issue upon exercise of this
Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for
the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) Listing of Shares. If the issuance of any Warrant Shares
required to be reserved for purposes of exercise of this Warrant
requires listing on any
-4-
7
national securities exchange before such shares may be issued upon
exercise of this Warrant, the Company will, at its expense, use its best
efforts to cause such shares to be listed on the relevant national
securities exchange at such time, so that such shares may be issued in
accordance with the terms hereof.
(d) Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company will not, by
amendment of its charter 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 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.
4. Antidilution Provisions. The Exercise Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as provided in this Paragraph 4. Upon each
adjustment of the Exercise Price, the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter
be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment,
the largest number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price
in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable hereunder immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the
product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment. For
purposes of this Paragraph 4, the term "Capital Stock", as used herein,
includes the Common Stock and any additional class of stock of the Company
having no preference as to dividends or distributions on liquidation which may
be authorized in the future by an amendment to the Company's charter, provided
that the shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall include only shares
of Common Stock, or shares resulting from any subdivision or combination of the
Common Stock, or in the case of any reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, or sale of the character referred to in Paragraph 4(i)
hereof, the stock or other securities or property provided for in said
Paragraph.
(a) Issuance of Capital Stock. If and whenever the Company
shall issue or sell any shares of Capital Stock without consideration or
for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then, forthwith
upon such issue or sale, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to a price
(calculated to the nearest cent) determined by dividing (x) an amount
equal to the aggregate consideration received by the Company upon such
issue or sale, by (y) the total number of shares of Capital Stock so
issued or sold.
(b) Treatment of Options and Convertible Securities;
Computation of Consideration. For the purposes of Paragraph 4(a) hereof
the following provisions shall also be applicable:
-5-
8
(i) If at any time the Company shall grant any rights
to subscribe for or purchase, or any options for the purchase of,
Capital Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for
Capital Stock (such rights and options being herein called
"Options" and such convertible or exchangeable securities being
herein called "Convertible Securities"), whether or not such
Options or the rights to convert or exchange any such Convertible
Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share
for which Capital Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such
Options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities shall be less than the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the time of the granting of such Options,
then the total maximum number of shares of Capital Stock issuable
upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or
exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible
Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall (as
of the date of granting of such Options) be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold for such price per
share. For purposes of this paragraph 4(b)(i) the price per
share for which such Capital Stock is issuable shall be
determined by dividing (x) the total amount, if any, received or
receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of
such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of such
Options, plus, in the case of any such Options which relate to
Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of
additional consideration, if any, other than such Convertible
Securities, payable to the Company upon the conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities, by (y) the total maximum
number of shares of Capital Stock issuable upon the exercise of
such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such
Options. Except as provided in Paragraph 4(b)(vi) hereof, no
further adjustments of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the
actual issue of such Capital Stock or of such Convertible
Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual
issue of such Capital Stock upon the conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities.
(ii) If at any time the Company shall issue or sell
Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to convert or
exchange such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable,
and the price per share for which Capital Stock is issuable upon
the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities shall
be less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to
the time of the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities,
then the total maximum number of shares of Capital Stock issuable
upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible
Securities shall (as of the date of the issue or sale of such
Convertible Securities) be deemed to be outstanding and to have
been issued and sold for such price per share,
-6-
9
provided that (a) except as provided in Paragraph 4(b)(vi)
hereof, no further adjustments of the Exercise Price shall be
made upon the actual issue of such Capital Stock upon the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and (b) if
any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made
upon exercise of any Options for which adjustments of the
Exercise Price have been or are to be made pursuant to other
provisions of this Paragraph 4(b), no further adjustment of the
Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
For purposes of this Paragraph 4(b)(ii), the price per share for
which Capital Stock is issuable shall be determined by dividing
(x) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as
consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible
Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration, if any, other than such Convertible Securities,
payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof,
by (y) the total maximum number of shares of Capital Stock
issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible
Securities.
(iii) If at any time the Company shall pay a dividend or
make any other distribution upon the Capital Stock payable in
Capital Stock or Convertible Securities, any Capital Stock or
Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issuable in payment
of such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been
issued without consideration, and the Exercise Price shall be
reduced as if the Company had subdivided the outstanding shares
of Capital Stock into a greater number of shares as provided in
Paragraph 4(c) hereof.
(iv) If at any time any Capital Stock, Convertible
Securities, or Options shall be issued or sold for cash, the
consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the amount
received by the Company therefor, without deduction therefrom of
any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or
concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection
therewith. If any Capital Stock, Convertible Securities, or Op-
tions shall be issued or sold for a consideration other than
cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by
the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value of such
consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company, except where such consideration
consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration
received by the Company shall be the market price thereof
(determined as provided in Paragraph 4(e) hereof) as of the date
of receipt, but in each such case without deduction therefrom of
any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or
concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection
therewith. In computing the market price of a note or other
obligation that is not listed or admitted to trading on any
securities exchange or quoted in the Nasdaq Stock Market or
reported by the National
-7-
10
Quotation Bureau, Inc. or a similar reporting organization, the
total consideration to be received by the Company thereunder
(including interest) shall be discounted to present value at the
prime rate announced or published in The Wall Street Journal
under the caption "Money Rate" in effect at the time the note or
obligation is deemed to have been issued. If any Capital Stock,
Convertible Securities, or Options shall be issued in connection
with any merger of another corporation into the Company, the
amount of consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the fair
value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of
the Company of such portion of the assets of such merged corpo-
ration as the Board shall determine to be attributable to such
Capital Stock, Convertible Securities, or Options.
(v) In case at any time the Company shall take a record
of the holders of Capital Stock for the purpose of entitling them
(a) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in
Capital Stock or Convertible Securities, or (b) to subscribe for
or purchase Capital Stock or Convertible Securities, then such
record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale
of such Capital Stock or Convertible Securities.
(vi) If the purchase price provided for in any Option
referred to in Paragraph 4(b)(i) hereof, or the price at which
any Convertible Securities referred to in Paragraph 4(b)(i) or
(ii) hereof are convertible into or exchangeable for Capital
Stock, shall change at any time (whether by reason of provisions
designed to protect against dilution or otherwise), the Exercise
Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be increased or
decreased to such Exercise Price as would have obtained had the
adjustments made upon the issuance of such Options or Convertible
Securities been made upon the basis of (a) the issuance of the
number of shares of Capital Stock theretofore actually delivered
upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities, and the total
consideration received therefor, and (b) the number of shares of
Capital Stock to be issued for the consideration, if any,
received by the Company therefor and to be received on the basis
of such changed price.
(vii) If any adjustment has been made in the Exercise
Price because of the issuance of Options or Convertible
Securities and if any of such Options or rights to convert or
exchange such Convertible Securities expire or otherwise
terminate, then the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to
eliminate the adjustments previously made in connection with the
Options or rights to convert or exchange Convertible Securities
which have expired or terminated.
(viii) The number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding
at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or
for the account of
-8-
11
the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be
considered an issue or sale of Capital Stock.
(ix) Anything in Paragraph 4(a) or (b) hereof to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to
make any adjustment of the Exercise Price in the case of (a) the
issuance of the Warrants or any other warrant issued to the
holder hereof, (b) the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon
exercise of the Warrants or any other warrant issued to the
holder hereof, (c) the granting of stock options by the Company
to employees or directors of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries in connection with their employment or service as
directors to purchase Capital Stock, provided that the exercise
price of such stock options is at least equal to the market price
of such shares of Capital Stock on the date such stock options
are granted and the total number of such options granted after
the date hereof does not exceed the sum of (X) ten percent of the
outstanding Common Stock of the Company and (Y) the number of
such employee or director options outstanding on the date hereof
that, on the date in question, have expired or been cancelled,
(d) the issuance of shares of Capital Stock upon the exercise of
the stock options referred to in clause (c) above, and (e) the
issuance of shares of Capital Stock upon the exercise,
conversion, or exchange of any securities issued prior to or
simultaneously with the date of the original issue of this
Warrant.
(c) Subdivisions and Combinations. In case at any time the
Company shall subdivide the outstanding shares of Capital Stock into a
greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and conversely, in
case the outstanding shares of Capital Stock shall be combined into a
smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such combination shall be proportionately increased. An adjustment
made pursuant to this Paragraph 4(c) shall become effective immediately
after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.
(d) Extraordinary Dividends and Distributions. If at any time
the Company shall pay a dividend or make a distribution to all holders
of Capital Stock, as such, which dividend or distribution is payable
otherwise than in cash out of earnings or earned surplus and otherwise
than in Capital Stock, Convertible Securities, or Options, then
thereafter the holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise of this
Warrant, shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common
Stock being purchased upon such exercise and, in addition thereto and
without further payment, the stock and other securities and property
(including cash) which such holder would have received by way of
dividends or distributions (otherwise than in cash out of earnings or
earned surplus or in Capital Stock, Convertible Securities, or Options)
as if continuously, since the date of the original issue of this
Warrant, such holder (i) had been the record holder of the number of
-9-
12
shares of Common Stock then being purchased, and (ii) had retained all
dividends and distributions in stock or other securities (other than
Capital Stock, Convertible Securities, or Options) which would have been
paid in respect of such Common Stock or in respect of any stock or other
securities which would have been paid as dividends or distributions on
such Common Stock.
(e) Computation of Market Price. For the purpose of any
computation under Paragraphs 2(a), 2(b) and 4(b) hereof, the market
price of the security in question on any day shall be deemed to be the
average of the last reported sale prices for the security for the 20
consecutive Trading Days beginning 30 Trading Days before the day in
question. The last reported sale price for each day shall be (i) the
last reported sale price of the security on the Nasdaq Stock Market's
National Market, or any similar system of automated dissemination of
quotations of securities prices then in common use, if so quoted, or
(ii) if not quoted as described in clause (i) above, the mean between
the high bid and low asked quotations for the security as reported by
the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. if at least two securities dealers
have inserted both bid and asked quotations for such security on at
least 10 of such 20 consecutive Trading Days, or (iii) if the security
is listed or admitted for trading on any national securities exchange,
the last sale price, or the closing bid price if no sale occurred, of
such class of security on the principal securities exchange on which
such class of security is listed or admitted to trading. If the
security is quoted on a national securities or central market system, in
lieu of a market or quotation system described above, the last reported
sale price shall be determined in the manner set forth in clause (ii) of
the preceding sentence if bid and asked quotations are reported but
actual transactions are not, and in the manner set forth in clause (iii)
of the preceding sentence if actual transactions are reported. If none
of the conditions set forth above is met, the last reported sale price
of the security on any day or the average of such last reported sale
prices for any period shall be the fair market value of such security as
determined by a member firm of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.
selected by the Company. The term "Trading Days", as used herein, means
(i) if the security is quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market's National
Market, or any similar system of automated dissemination of quotations
of securities prices, days on which trades may be made on such system or
(ii) if the security is listed or admitted for trading on any national
securities exchange, days on which such national securities exchange is
open for business.
(f) Record Date Adjustments. In any case in which this
Paragraph 4 requires that a downward adjustment of the Exercise Price
shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the
Company may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the
holder of this Warrant exercised after such record date and before the
occurrence of such event the additional Warrant Shares issuable upon
such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event over
and above the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise before
-10-
13
giving effect to such adjustment and (B) paying to such holder any
amount in cash in lieu of a fractional share pursuant to Paragraph 4(i)
hereof.
(g) Minimum Adjustment of Exercise Price. No adjustment of
the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount less than $.10 per share
in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made,
but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be
made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which,
together with any adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not
less than $.10 per share. In case at any time the Company shall issue
Capital Stock by way of dividend on Capital Stock or subdivide or
combine the outstanding shares of Capital Stock, said amount of $.10 per
share (as theretofore increased or decreased, if the said amount shall
have been adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Paragraph
4(g)) shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of such a
combination or decreased in the case of such a subdivision or stock
dividend so as appropriately to reflect the same.
(h) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger,
or Sale. If any capital reorganization of the Company, or any
reclassification of the Capital Stock, or any consolidation or merger of
the Company with or into another corporation or entity, or any sale of
all or substantially all the assets of the Company to another corpora-
tion or entity, shall be effected in such a way that the holders of
Common Stock (or any other securities of the Company then issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to receive stock or
other securities or property (including cash) with respect to or in
exchange for Common Stock (or such other securities), then lawful and
adequate provision shall be made whereby the holder of this Warrant
shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis
and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant, and in lieu
of the shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) immediately
theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise hereof, such
stock or other securities or property (including cash) as may be
issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) equal to
the number of shares of Common Stock (or such other securities)
immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of
this Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, or sale not taken place. In any such case appropriate provision
shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the holder of
this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without
limitation, the provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise hereof) shall
thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to
the stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon
the exercise hereof. In the event of a consolidation or merger of the
Company with or into another corporation or entity as a result of which
a greater or lesser number of shares of common stock of the surviving
-11-
14
corporation or entity are issuable to holders of Capital Stock in
respect of the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such consolidation or merger, then the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such consolidation or merger shall be adjusted in
the same manner as though there were a subdivision or combination of the
outstanding shares of Capital Stock.
(i) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common
Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the
Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fractional share
which would otherwise be issuable in an amount equal to the same
fraction of the current market value of a share of Common Stock, which
current market value shall be the last reported sale price (determined
as provided in Paragraph 4(e) hereof) on the Trading Day immediately
preceding the date of the exercise.
(j) Other Notices. If at any time:
(i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon the
Capital Stock payable in shares of stock of any class or make any
other distribution (other than dividends or distributions payable
in cash out of earnings or earned surplus) to the holders of the
Capital Stock;
(ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata
to the holders of the Capital Stock any additional shares of
stock of any class or other rights;
(iii) there shall be any capital reorganization of the
Company, or reclassification of the Capital Stock, or
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, or sale of
all or substantially all its assets to, another corporation or
entity; or
(iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation, or winding-up of the Company;
then, in each such case, the Company shall promptly give to the holder
of this Warrant (a) notice of the date on which the books of the Company
shall close or a record shall be taken for determining the holders of
Capital Stock entitled to receive any such dividend, distribution, or
subscription rights or for determining the holders of Capital Stock
entitled to vote in respect of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation,
or winding-up and (b) in the case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation,
or winding-up, notice of the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable
approximation thereof by the Company) when the same shall take place.
Such notice shall also specify the date on which the holders of Capital
Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, or
subscrip-
-12-
15
tion rights or to exchange their Capital Stock for stock or other
securities or property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation,
or winding-up, as the case may be. Failure to give any such notice or
any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the proceeding
referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) above.
5. No Rights or Liabilities as a Shareholder. This Warrant shall
not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
shareholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of
affirmative action by the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere
enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give
rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a shareholder
of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by
creditors of the Company.
6. Transfer, Exchange, and Replacement of Warrant.
(a) Warrant Not Transferable. You agree that this Warrant may
not be transferred, sold, assigned or hypothecated, except to (i) your
wholly-owned subsidiaries or affiliates (as defined by the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934); (ii) the respective successors to you in a merger
or consolidation; (iii) the respective purchasers of all or
substantially all of your assets; (iv) your respective shareholders in
the event you are liquidated or dissolved; (v) any one or more financial
institutions (including, without limitation, any banks, investment
banking firms, investment funds and insurance companies); or (vi) any
other person or entity with respect to whom you have received the prior
written consent of the Company. It is not a condition to the transfer
of this Warrant that it be transferred in connection with a transfer of
a Note. Until due presentment for registration of a permitted transfer
on the Company's books, the Company may treat the registered holder
hereof as the owner and holder hereof for all purposes, and the Company
shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
(b) Replacement of Warrant. Upon 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, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company, or, in the case of any
such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the
Company will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like
tenor.
(c) Register. The Company shall maintain, at its principal
office at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000 (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
-13-
16
person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well as the name
and address of each permitted transferee and each prior owner of this
Warrant.
(d) Exercise or Transfer Without Registration. Anything in
this Warrant to the contrary notwithstanding, if, at the time of the
surrender of this Warrant in connection with any exercise, transfer, or
exchange of this Warrant, this Warrant shall not be registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and under applicable state securi-
ties or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of
allowing such exercise, transfer, or exchange, that the holder of this
Warrant execute and deliver to the Company a seller's Rule 144
representation letter in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Company. The first holder of this Warrant, by taking and holding the
same, represents to the Company that such holder is acquiring this
Warrant for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof.
(e) Expenses of Transfer. The Company shall pay all taxes
(other than those imposed on or in respect of income), other expenses
and charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution, and
delivery of any Warrants issued or prepared by the Company in connection
with this Paragraph 6.
7. Notices. All notices, requests, and other communications
required or permitted to be given or delivered hereunder to the holder of this
Warrant shall be in writing, and shall be personally delivered, or shall be
sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid and addressed, to such
holder at the address shown for such holder on the books of the Company, or at
such other address as shall have been furnished to the Company by notice from
such holder. All notices, requests, and other communications required or
permitted to be given or delivered hereunder to the Company shall be in
writing, and shall be personally delivered, or shall be sent by certified or
registered mail, postage prepaid and addressed, to the office of the Company at
0000 Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, Attention: President,
or at such other address as shall have been furnished to the holder of this
Warrant by notice from the Company. Any such notice, request, or other
communication may be sent by telegram or telex, but shall in such case be
subsequently confirmed by a writing personally delivered or sent by certified
or registered mail as provided above. All notices, requests, and other
communications shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of the
delivery thereof to (or the receipt by, in the case of a telegram or telex) the
person entitled to receive such notice at the address of such person for
purposes of this Paragraph 7, or, if mailed, at the completion of the third
full day following the time of such mailing thereof to such address, as the
case may be.
8. GOVERNING LAW. THIS WARRANT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED
AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

9. Miscellaneous.

interest thereof) against which enforcement of the same is sought.

several paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for purposes of
reference only, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any
