2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT
-------------------
2.1 Manner of Exercise. (a) From and after the Original Issue Date
------------------
and until 5:00 P.M., New York time, on the Expiration Date, the Holder of this
Warrant may from time to time exercise this Warrant, on any Business Day, for
all or any part of the number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock purchasable
hereunder (as determined pursuant to Section 2.2 below); provided, however, if
-------- -------
after the Outside Date, any Holder of this Warrant elects to exercise such
warrant for Non-Voting Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2 and it is
determined that the Company cannot issue Non-Voting Common Stock, the Company
shall use its reasonable efforts to deliver to such Holder securities, cash or
other property to provide such Holder with the economic equivalent of an
exercise of the Series 1-B Warrant for, and an immediate sale of, the Non-Voting
Common Stock. In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, the
Holder shall (i) deliver to the Company at its Designated Office a written
notice of the Holder's election to exercise this Warrant (an "Exercise Notice"),
---------------
which Exercise Notice shall be irrevocable and specify the number of shares of
Non-Voting Common Stock to be purchased, together with this Warrant and (ii) pay
to the Company the Warrant Price (the date on which both such delivery and
payment shall have first taken place being hereinafter sometimes referred to as
the "Exercise Date"). Such Exercise Notice shall be in the form of the
subscription form appearing at the end of this Warrant as Annex A, duly executed
-------
by the Holder or its duly authorized agent or attorney.
(b) Upon receipt by the Company of such Exercise Notice, Warrant and
payment, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within
five (5) Business Days thereafter, execute (or cause to be executed) and deliver
(or cause to be delivered) to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the aggregate number of full shares of Non-Voting Common Stock
issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a
share, as hereafter provided. The stock certificate or certificates so
delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or
denominations as the exercising Holder shall reasonably request in the Exercise
Notice and shall be registered in the name of the Holder or, subject to Section
9 below, such other name as shall be designated in the Exercise Notice. This
Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other
Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder
of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the Exercise Date.
(c) Payment of the Warrant Price shall be made at the option of the
Holder by one or more of the following methods: (i) by delivery of a certified
or official bank check in the
7
amount of such Warrant Price payable to the order of the Company, (ii) by
instructing the Company to withhold a number of shares of Warrant Stock then
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with an aggregate Fair Value equal to
such Warrant Price (the "Share Withholding Option"), or (iii) by surrendering to
------------------------
the Company shares of Non-Voting Common Stock previously acquired by the Holder
with an aggregate Fair Value equal to such Warrant Price. In the event of any
withholding of Warrant Stock or surrender of Non-Voting Common Stock pursuant to
clause (ii) or (iii) above where the number of shares whose Fair Value is equal
to the Warrant Price is not a whole number, the number of shares withheld by or
surrendered to the Company shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share and
the Company shall make a cash payment to the Holder based on the incremental
fraction of a share being so withheld by or surrendered to the Company in an
amount determined in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof. Notwithstanding any
provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to register
shares of Non-Voting Common Stock in the name of any Person who acquired this
Warrant (or part hereof) or any shares of Warrant Stock otherwise than in
accordance with this Warrant.
(d) If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company
shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing
the shares of Non-Voting Common Stock being issued, deliver to the Holder a new
Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares
of Non-Voting Common Stock called for by this Warrant. Such new Warrant shall
in all other respects be identical to this Warrant.
(e) All Warrants delivered for exercise shall be canceled by the
Company.
2.2 Payment of Taxes. All shares of Non-Voting Common Stock issuable
----------------
upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable, issued without violation of any preemptive
rights and free and clear of all Liens (other than any created by actions of the
Holder). The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes
and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issue or
delivery thereof, unless such tax or charge is imposed by law upon the Holder,
in which case such taxes or charges shall be paid by the Holder and the Company
shall reimburse the Holder therefor on an After-Tax Basis. The Company shall
not, however, be required to pay any tax or governmental charge which may be
payable in respect of any Transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares
of Non-Voting Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a name
other than that of the holder of the Warrants to be exercised, and no such issue
or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has
paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the
satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
2.3 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a
-----------------
fractional share of Non-Voting Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant. As to
any fraction of a share that the Holder of one or more Warrants, the rights
under which are exercised in the same transaction, would otherwise be entitled
to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay
8
to such Holder an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by (i) the
Current Market Price of one share of Non-Voting Common Stock on the Exercise
Date, if the Non-Voting Common Stock is then publicly traded, or (ii) the Book
Value per share of Non-Voting Common Stock based on the most recent available
consolidated balance sheet of the Company, if the Non-Voting Common Stock is not
then publicly traded.
2.4 Reduced Exercise Price. In the event that the Company shall not
----------------------
have obtained the approval of its stockholders of the conversion of the Series
1-B Warrants into Series 1-A Warrants (the "Series 1-B-to-1-A Conversion") on or
----------------------------
prior to the Outside Date, the Exercise Price herein shall be reduced to $0.01.
3. TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION
----------------------------------
3.1 Transfer. Subject to compliance with Section 9 hereof, each
--------
transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be
registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon
surrender of this Warrant at the Designated Office, together with a written
assignment of this Warrant in the form of Annex B hereto duly executed by the
-------
Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes
described in Section 2.2 in connection with the making of such transfer. Upon
such surrender and delivery and, if required, such payment, the Company shall,
subject to Section 9, execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name
of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such
instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant
evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned and this Warrant shall
promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned in compliance with
Section 9, may be exercised by the new Holder for the purchase of shares of Non-
Voting Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.
3.2 Division and Combination. Subject to compliance with the
------------------------
applicable provisions of this Warrant including, without limitation, Section 9,
this Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation
hereof at the Designated Office, together with a written notice specifying the
names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the
Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with the applicable
provisions of this Warrant as to any transfer which may be involved in such
division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice.
3.3 Expenses. The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own
--------
expense any new Warrant or Warrants required to be issued under this Section 3
(other than pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof).
3.4 Maintenance of Books. The Company agrees to maintain, at the
--------------------
Designated Office, books for the registration and transfer of the Warrants.
9
4. CONVERSION TO SERIES 1-A WARRANTS
---------------------------------
4.1 Conversion. The Company will, as soon as practicable, duly call,
----------
give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders for the purpose
of approving, among other things, the Series 1-B-to-1-A Conversion and the
creation of the Non-Voting Common Stock. The Company shall use its best efforts
to secure such approval on or prior to the Outside Date. Upon stockholder
approval of the Series 1-B-to-1-A Conversion, whenever obtained, this Warrant
shall, without any action on the part of the Holder hereof or the Company, be
automatically converted into one Series 1-A Warrant (a "Series 1-A Warrant") in
------------------
the form attached as Annex 2-A to the Amended and Restated Securities Purchase
Agreement dated as of June 4, 1999 among the Company, the Apollo Stockholders
and certain other parties thereto, to purchase the same number of shares of
Common Stock (subject to adjustment) as could be purchased upon the exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior to such conversion.
4.2 Promptly following any conversion of this Warrant into a Series
1-A Warrant pursuant to Section 4.1 above, the Holder of this Warrant shall (i)
surrender this Warrant, at the office of the Company or of the transfer agent
for this Warrant and (ii) state in writing the name or names in which the Series
1-A Warrant is to be registered. As soon as practical following receipt of the
foregoing, the Company shall deliver to such former Holder of this Warrant one
or more Series 1-A Warrants in denominations acceptable to such Holder. Such
conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as of the close of business on
the date on which the stockholders of the Company approve the Series 1-B-to-1-A
Conversion.
5. ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS
-----------------------
5.1 General. The number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock for
-------
which this Warrant is exercisable and the Exercise Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time in the same manner as the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series 1-A Warrant and the "Exercise
Price" as set forth in the Series 1-A Warrant are adjusted pursuant to Section 5
thereof.
5.2 Notice of Adjustment of Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise
--------------------------------------
Price is adjusted as herein provided:
(i) the Company shall compute the adjusted Exercise Price in
accordance with this Section 5 and shall prepare a certificate signed
by the Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company setting
forth the adjusted Exercise Price and showing in reasonable detail the
facts upon which such adjustment is based, and such certificate shall
forthwith be filed at each office or agency maintained for such
purpose or exercise of Warrants; and
10
(ii) a notice stating that the Exercise Price has been adjusted
and setting forth the adjusted Exercise Price shall forthwith be
prepared by the Company, and as soon as practicable after it is
prepared, such notice shall be mailed by the Company at its expense to
all Holders at their last addresses as they shall appear in the stock
register.
6. NO IMPAIRMENT; REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AND COOPERATION; NOTICE OF EXPIRATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(a) The Company shall not by any action, including, without
limitation, amending its charter documents or through any reorganization,
reclassification, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue
or sale of securities or any other similar voluntary action, avoid or seek to
avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but
will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and
in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect
the rights of the Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Company shall take all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid
and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, free
and clear of all Liens, and shall use its best efforts to obtain all such
authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having
jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its
obligations under this Warrant.
(b) The Company shall deliver to each Holder of Warrants on or before
six months prior to the tenth anniversary of the Original Issue Date, but no
earlier than nine months prior to the tenth anniversary of the Original Issue
Date, advance notice of such tenth anniversary and of the anticipated Expiration
Date. If the Company fails to fulfill in a timely manner the notice obligation
set forth in the prior sentence, it shall provide such notice as soon as
possible thereafter.
7. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF NON-VOTING COMMON STOCK;
--------------------------------------------------------
REGISTRATION WITH OR APPROVAL OF ANY
-------------------------------------
GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY
----------------------
From and after the Original Issue Date, the Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants such
number of its authorized but unissued shares of Non-Voting Common Stock as will
be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All
shares of Non-Voting Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms hereof, when
issued upon exercise of this Warrant with payment therefor in accordance with
the terms hereof, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and
nonassessable, not subject to preemptive rights and shall be free and clear of
all Liens. Before taking any action that would result in an adjustment in the
number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock for which
11
this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain
all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be
necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction over
such action. If any shares of Non-Voting Common Stock required to be reserved
for issuance upon exercise of Warrants require registration or qualification
with any governmental authority under any federal or state law (other than under
the Securities Act or any state securities law) before such shares may be so
issued, the Company will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible and at
its expense endeavor to cause such shares to be duly registered.

----------------
distributions by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock with respect to

The Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by the

sold, assigned, exchanged, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise
disposed of or encumbered without compliance with the provisions of, and are
otherwise restricted by the provisions of, the Securities Act, the rules and
regulations thereunder and this Warrant. Each certificate, if any, evidencing
such shares of Restricted Common Stock issued upon any such Transfer, other than
in a public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement, shall bear
the restrictive legend set forth in Section 9.2(a), and each Warrant issued upon
such Transfer shall bear the restrictive legend set forth in Section 9.2(b),
unless the Holder delivers to the Company an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that such legend is not required for the purposes of compliance with the
Securities Act. Holders of the Warrants or the Restricted Common Stock, as the
case may be, shall not be entitled to Transfer such Warrants or such Restricted
Common Stock except in accordance with this Section 9.1.
13
9.2 Restrictive Legends. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this
-------------------
Section 9, each certificate for Warrant Stock initially issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant, and each certificate for Warrant Stock issued to any subsequent
transferee of any such certificate, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with
two legends in substantially the following forms:
"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES
LAW. THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED,
SOLD, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGE, MORTGAGE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OF OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF OR ENCUMBERED WITHOUT COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF, AND
ARE OTHERWISE RESTRICTED BY THE PROVISIONS OF, THE ACT AND THE RULES AND
REGULATIONS THEREUNDER."
"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ENTITLED TO THE BENEFIT OF
AND ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN A CERTAIN SERIES 1-B
WARRANT DATED JUNE 4, 1999, ORIGINALLY ISSUED BY RARE MEDIUM GROUP, INC.
(THE "WARRANT") PURSUANT TO THE EXERCISE OF WHICH SUCH SHARES WERE ISSUED.
A COPY OF THE WARRANT IS AVAILABLE AT THE EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF RARE MEDIUM
GROUP, INC."
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, each Warrant
shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the
following form:
"NEITHER THIS SERIES 1-B WARRANT NOR ANY OF THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON
EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW. THE SERIES 1-B WARRANTS
REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF
MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGED, MORTGAGED, PLEDGED,
HYPOTHECATED OF OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF OR ENCUMBERED WITHOUT COMPLIANCE WITH
THE PROVISIONS OF, AND ARE OTHERWISE RESTRICTED BY THE PROVISIONS OF, THE
ACT, THE RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER AND THIS WARRANT."
9.3 Termination of Securities Law Restrictions. Notwithstanding the
------------------------------------------
foregoing provisions of this Section 9, the restrictions imposed by Section
9.1(b) upon the transferability of the Warrants and the Restricted Common Stock
and the legend requirements of Section 9.2 shall terminate as to any particular
Warrant or shares of Restricted Common Stock when the Company shall have
received from the Holder thereof an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
legend is
14
not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. Whenever the
restrictions imposed by Sections 9.1(b) and 9.2 shall terminate as to this
Warrant, as hereinabove provided, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive
from the Company, at the expense of the Company, a new Warrant bearing the
following legend in place of the restrictive legend set forth hereon:
"THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE WITHIN SERIES 1-B WARRANT
CONTAINED IN SECTIONS 9.1(b) AND 9.2 HEREOF TERMINATED ON ______________,
20__, AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT."
All Warrants issued upon registration of transfer, division or combination of,
or in substitution for, any Warrant or Warrants entitled to bear such legend
shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon. Whenever the restrictions imposed
by this Section shall terminate as to any share of Restricted Common Stock, as
hereinabove provided, the Holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the
Company, at the Company's expense, a new certificate representing such Common
Stock not bearing the restrictive legend set forth in Section 9.2(a).
10. LOSS OR MUTILATION

satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (it
being understood that the written indemnification agreement of or affidavit of
loss of the Apollo Stockholders, shall be a sufficient indemnity) and, in case
of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation hereof, the Company will execute
and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor to such Holder; provided,
--------
however, that, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be required if this
-------
Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.

the record date for the applicable dividend, and any such Dilution Fee shall be

14. MISCELLANEOUS
-------------
14.1 Nonwaiver. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to
---------
exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Company or the Holder shall
operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the rights, powers or
remedies of such Person.
14.2 Notice Generally. Any notice, demand, request, consent,
----------------
approval, declaration, delivery or communication hereunder to be made pursuant
to the provisions of this Warrant shall be sufficiently given or made if in
writing and either delivered in person with receipt acknowledged or sent by
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,
addressed as follows:
(a) if to any Holder of this Warrant or of Warrant Stock issued upon
the exercise hereof, at its last known address appearing on the books of
the Company maintained for such purpose;
(b) if to the Company, at the Designated Office;
or at such other address as may be substituted by notice given as herein
provided. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing
by the party entitled to receive such notice. Every notice, demand, request,

delivered, with receipt acknowledged, or three (3) Business Days after the same

hereof (a) interest at the Agreed Rate on any amounts due and owing to such
Holder and (b) such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs
and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses incurred by such Holder in collecting any amounts due hereunder. The
Company shall indemnify, save and hold harmless the Holder hereof and the
Holders of any Warrant Stock issued upon the exercise hereof from and against

18
of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with or arising from any default
hereunder by the Company. This indemnification provision shall be in addition to
the rights of such Holder or Holders to bring an action against the Company for

14.4 Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of

and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof,
shall give rise to any liability of such Holder to pay the Exercise Price for
any Warrant Stock other than pursuant to an exercise of this Warrant or any
liability as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by
the Company or by creditors of the Company.
14.5 Remedies. Each Holder of Warrants and/or Warrant Stock, in
--------
addition to being entitled to exercise its rights granted by law, including
recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights
provided under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not
be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of
the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees, in an action for specific
performance, to waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
14.6 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Sections
----------------------
3.1, 9.1 and 9.2, this Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the
permitted successors and assigns of the Holder hereof. The provisions of this
Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of
this Warrant and to the extent applicable, all Holders of shares of Warrant
Stock issued upon the exercise hereof (including transferees), and shall be
enforceable by any such Holder.
14.7 Amendment. This Warrant and all other Warrants may be modified
---------
or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the
Company and the Majority Warrant Holders, provided that no such Warrant may be
--------
modified or amended to reduce the number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock
for which such Warrant is exercisable or to increase the price at which such
shares may be purchased upon exercise of such Warrant (before giving effect to
any adjustment as provided therein) without the written consent of the Holder
thereof.
14.8 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant
------------
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
14.9 Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
--------
convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part
of this Warrant.
