Business Day starting on the day after the end of the Warrant Period and ending
at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on January 18, 2006 (the "EXERCISE
PERIOD"), for all or any part of the then Vested Warrant Shares (but not as to
any shares other than the Vested Warrant Shares).
2.2 EXERCISE PROCEDURE. To exercise this Warrant, the Warrantholder
shall deliver to the Company at its address set forth in Section 10.5: (a)
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price in the manner provided in Section 2.3
(as computed by multiplying (A) the Exercise Price as of such date by (B) the
number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrantholder is exercising this
Warrant at
61
3
such time); (b) a completed and properly executed Notice of Exercise in
substantially the form attached hereto as Annex I; and (c) this Warrant. Upon
receipt of the aggregate Exercise Price and the required deliverables pursuant
to the preceding sentence, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days
thereafter, subject to receipt of any required regulatory approvals (including
expiration of any required waiting period), deliver to the Warrantholder duly
executed certificate(s) representing the aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of
a Warrant Share as provided in Section 2.7. Such stock certificate(s) shall be
in such denominations and registered in the name(s) set forth in the Notice of
Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall
deliver to the Warrantholder a new warrant evidencing the rights of the
Warrantholder to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares issuable (which shall in
all other respects be identical to this Warrant).
2.3 PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. The Exercise Price may be payable
hereunder by the delivery by certified check or by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account of the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise
Price. The Warrantholder may elect to exercise the Warrant in a cashless
exercise in lieu of payment of an amount equal to the Exercise Price, pursuant
to which the Warrantholder will receive that number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A-B)(C) by A where:
(A) = the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the
date that the Warrantholder delivers the Notice of Exercise;
(B) = the Exercise Price for one share of Common Stock under this
Warrant (as adjusted to the date of such calculation); and
(C) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised,
the number of Warrant Shares to be acquired as set forth in the
Notice of Exercise (at the date of such calculation).
If the above calculation results in a negative number, then no Warrant Shares
shall be issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
2.4 VESTED WARRANT SHARES. The number of Vested Warrant Shares shall be
equal to the Base Amount multiplied by the Vesting Multiplier determined as
provided below in this Section 2.4. (For purposes of determining the Vesting
Multiplier under this Section 2.4, "REVENUE" shall be determined in accordance
with the procedures and methods set forth in Annex II attached hereto.)
(i) if Revenue achieved during the Warrant Period is $17,500,000
or greater but is less than $20,000,000, the Vesting Multiplier shall equal 1/3
(33-1/3%).
(ii) if Revenue achieved during the Warrant Period is $20,000,000
or greater but is less than $25,000,000, the Vesting Multiplier shall equal 2/3
(66-2/3%).
(iii) if Revenue achieved during the Warrant Period is
$25,000,000 or greater, the Vesting Multiplier shall equal 1 (100%).
(iv) if Revenue achieved during the Warrant Period is less than
$17,500,000, the Vesting Multiplier shall equal 0 (0%).
Any determination of whether the criteria for shares becoming Vested Warrant
Shares, and which level of Revenue has been achieved, shall be made in
accordance with this Section 2.4, Annex II attached hereto and Section 2(i) of
the Asset Purchase Agreement.
62
4
2.5 EXERCISE UPON CERTAIN CONDITIONS. The Warrantholder may immediately
exercise this Warrant and the number of Vested Warrant Shares shall be equal to
the Base Amount (as adjusted pursuant to Section III below) if the Company (i)
sells or otherwise disposes of substantially all of the Acquired Assets (as
defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement); or (ii) effects a fundamental change
in the operation of the Commerce Product Business from the way the Commerce
Product Business was conducted at Closing (as defined in the Asset Purchase
Agreement).
2.6 PAYMENT OF TAXES. The Company shall pay all stamp taxes and other
similar charges with respect to the issue or delivery of Common Stock hereunder.
The Company shall not be required to pay any transfer tax or other similar
charge imposed in connection with the issue of any stock certificate in any name
other than that of the Warrantholder, and in such case the Company shall not be
required to issue or deliver any stock certificate until such tax or other
charge has been paid or it has been established to the reasonable satisfaction
of the Company that no such tax or other charge is due.
2.7 FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue any
fractional shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any
fractional share to which the Warrantholder would otherwise be entitled upon
exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall make a cash payment in an amount
equal to the product of (a) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on
the date of exercise multiplied by (b) the fraction of a share.
III. ADJUSTMENTS
3.1 INTRODUCTION. The number of Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price of
this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in
this Article III. The Company shall give the Warrantholder notice of any event
described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Article III.
3.2 ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND WARRANT SHARES FOR STOCK DIVIDENDS,
SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS. If at any time during the Exercise Period the
Company shall: (a) declare a dividend payable in, or other distribution to all
holders of Outstanding shares of Common Stock of, Common Stock; (b) subdivide or
split its Outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of
Common Stock; or (c) combine or reclassify its Outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then: (i) the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable upon the occurrence
of any such event (including the Base Amount and Unvested Warrant Shares) shall
be adjusted to equal the product of (A) the number of such shares of Common
Stock without giving effect to such event multiplied by (B) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of Outstanding shares of Common Stock after
giving effect to such event and the denominator of which is the number of
Outstanding shares of Common Stock without giving effect to such event; and (ii)
the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the product of (A) the Exercise
Price without giving effect to such adjustment multiplied by (B) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of Warrant Shares without giving effect to such
event and the denominator of which is the number of Warrant Shares after giving
effect to such event.
3.3 ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND WARRANT SHARES UPON CERTAIN
DISTRIBUTIONS. If, at any time during the Exercise Period, the Company shall
distribute to all holders of shares of Common Stock cash, evidences of
indebtedness of the Company or another issuer, securities of the Company or
another issuer, or other assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase securities of the Company, in each case excluding distributions that
result in adjustment pursuant to Section 3.2 (the "DISTRIBUTED ITEMS"), then the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted according to the following formula:
Exercise Price = Exercise Price x (Fair Market Value of a Warrant Share -- FMV
of Distributed Items)
63
5
Fair Market Value of a Warrant Share
For purposes of this Section 3.3, the term "FMV OF DISTRIBUTED ITEMS" shall mean
the fair market value of the Distributed Items to which the holder of one share
of Common Stock would be entitled to receive in such distribution, as determined
by the Board of Directors in good faith exercising its fiduciary duties. Upon
the occurrence of an adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section
3.3, the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted according to the following
formula:
Warrant Shares = Warrant Shares x Exercise Price (without adjustment)
Exercise Price (giving effect to adjustment)
3.4 WHEN ADJUSTMENTS ARE TO BE MADE. Adjustments pursuant to this
Article III shall be made whenever and as often as any event necessitating an
adjustment shall occur, except that any such adjustment may be postponed until
the earlier of: (a) three (3) years following the date of such event; or (b) the
date of exercise of this Warrant, if such adjustment either by itself or
together with other such adjustments not previously made would add or subtract
less than one percent (1%) of the number of Warrant Shares for which this
Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any
such postponed adjustment shall be carried forward and made on the earliest of:
(x) the date of exercise of this Warrant; (y) the date on which such postponed
adjustment, together with any other required but unmade adjustments, would
result in an adjustment of sufficient magnitude to be required to be made
pursuant to this Section 3.4; or (z) three (3) years following the date of the
event necessitating the adjustment. For the purpose of this Section 3.4, an
event necessitating an adjustment shall be deemed to have occurred at the close
of business on the date of its occurrence.
IV. NOTICES TO THE WARRANTHOLDER
4.1 NOTICE OF CAPITAL EVENT.If, at any time during the Exercise Period,

Delaware corporation (the "Warrantholder"), to which this Annex II is attached.
Any capitalized term not defined in this Annex II shall have the meaning
assigned to the term in the Warrant. For the Vesting Multiplier to be greater
than 0, both the relevant Revenues Test and the Product Performance Test set
forth below must be met during the Warrant Period. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Company agrees to operate the Business in good faith
and will take no action to circumvent the Earnout.
I. REVENUES TEST
A. The term "BUSINESS" as used in this Annex II means the business and
assets of the Commerce Product Business unit acquired pursuant to the Asset
Purchase Agreement. Except as specifically provided in this Annex II, the
Business shall not include any other business or assets of any other business
entity owned or acquired by Company during the Warrant Period, unless otherwise
agreed in writing by the Company and the Warrantholder.
B. For purposes of this Annex II, revenue ("REVENUE") of the Business
for the Warrant Period shall be determined in the following manner. All
determinations of Revenue shall be made in accordance with GAAP, applied in a
manner consistent with the financial statements of the Company, and shall be net
of any returns or bad debt expense.
1. The Company shall determine the revenues from the licensing or
sale of any of the products or functionality included in the Business acquired
from the Warrantholder (the "ACQUIRED PRODUCTS/FUNCTIONALITY"), and offered by
the Company on a stand-alone basis. All of these amounts shall be included in
"Revenue."
2. In the case of Acquired Products/Functionality offered by the
Company as incorporated into or in conjunction with other products or services
of the Company such that the revenues solely attributable to the Acquired
Products/Functionality cannot readily be determined by the Company ("COMBINED
PRODUCTS/FUNCTIONALITY"), the Company shall make a reasonable allocation of the
revenues realized from the licensing or sale of Combined Products/Functionality
between the Acquired Products/Functionality and other products or services of
the Company based upon the respective functions performed by each, the number of
lines of software code and/or other appropriate method applicable to a
particular product or functionality, in each case acting in good faith and
consistently with other similar allocations made by the Company hereunder or for
other purposes. "Revenue" shall include the portion of the net revenues from the
licensing or sale of Combined Products/Functionality so allocated to the
Acquired Products/Functionality.
3. In the case of each contract entered into within the Warrant
Period, where the Company has a legal right to receive revenue from the
licensing or sale of Acquired Products/Functionality or Combined
Products/Functionality after the Warrant Period, but where such right is not
considered revenue for the Warrant Period under applicable GAAP revenue
recognition principles ("UNREALIZED CONTRACTS"), the Company shall determine the
applicable revenues (under paragraph 1 or 2 above, as applicable) which it is
71
13
legally entitled to receive under such Unrealized Contracts without further
action on the part of the customer (such as the exercise of any options to
purchase products beyond those legally committed to in the contract). The
Company shall then (i) apply a reasonable discount to such revenues to reflect
the fact that they will be received after the end of the applicable period,
which discount shall be based on the Company's cost of funds at such time (or,
if not determinable, the cost of funds for similarly situated companies as
reasonably determined by the Company's financial adviser), (ii) reduce such
revenues by a probability factor that reflects any applicable uncertainties
regarding the Company's ability to perform the Unrealized Contract and become
entitled to the revenues and (iii) reduce such revenues by a probability factor
that reflects any applicable uncertainties or externalities regarding the
ability of a customer who is a party to such Unrealized Contract to perform the
Unrealized Contract and entitle the Company to realize revenues, it being
understood that all of the foregoing reductions shall be multiplicative in
application, and not additive. The resulting amount (the "CONTRACT VALUE") for
each Unrealized Contract shall be included in "Revenue."
4. A computation of the Revenues for the applicable period will
be prepared by the Company in the form of a report in accordance with the
foregoing principles and delivered to the Warrantholder within forty-five (45)
days after completion of the Warrant Period.
