Exercise of the Purchase Rights The purchase rights set forth in this Warrant Agreement are exercisable by the Warrantholder, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, prior to the expiration of the term set forth in Section 2 above, by tendering to the Company at its principal office a notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the "Notice of Exercise"), duly completed and executed. Promptly upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the purchase price in accordance with the terms set forth below, and in no event later than twenty-one (21) days thereafter, the Company shall issue to the Warrantholder a certificate for the number of shares of Preferred Stock purchased and shall execute the acknowledgment of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the "Acknowledgment of Exercise") indicating the number of shares which remain subject to future purchases, if any. The Exercise Price may be paid at the Warrantholder's election either (i) by cash or check, or (ii) by surrender of Warrants ("Net Issuance") as determined below. If the Warrantholder elects the Net Issuance method, the Company will issue Preferred Stock in accordance with the following formula: X = Y(A-B) ------ A Where: X = the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder. Y = the number of shares of Preferred Stock requested to be exercised under this Warrant Agreement. A = the fair market value of one (1) share of Preferred Stock.
Procedure for Exercise of Warrant Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering the following to the principal office of the Company in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof: (i) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Schedule A, (ii) payment of the Warrant Price then in effect for each of the Shares being purchased, as designated in the Notice of Exercise, and (iii) this Warrant. Payment of the Warrant Price may be in cash, certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, or wire transfer of funds to the Company’s account (or any combination of any of the foregoing) in the amount of the Warrant Price for each share being purchased. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Current Market Price (as defined below) is greater than the Warrant Price (at the date of calculation, as set forth below), the Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of the “spread” on the Shares (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company in accordance with Section 5.1, together with the Notice of Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder hereof a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: Where: X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this net exercise Y = the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, that portion of the Warrant requested to be exercised CMP = the Current Market Price (as of the date of such calculation) of one share of Common Stock WP = the Warrant Price (as adjusted as of the date of such calculation) For purposes of this Warrant, the “Current Market Price” of one share of Common Stock as of a particular date shall be determined as follows: (i) if traded on a national securities exchange or through the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Stock on such exchange as of five business days immediately prior to the date of exercise indicated in the Notice of Exercise (or if no reported sales took place on such day, the last date on which any such sales took place prior to the date of exercise); (ii) if traded over-the-counter but not on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid and asked prices as of five business days immediately prior to the date of exercise indicated in the Notice of Exercise; and (iii) if there is no active public market, the Current Market Price shall be the fair market value of the Common Stock as of the date of exercise, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
