Series A Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value (as adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the "Shares") of Copper Mountain Communications, Inc., a California
corporation (the "Company"), at the price of One Dollar ($1.00) per share (such
price and such other price as shall result, from time to time, from the
adjustments specified in Section 4 hereof is herein referred to as the "Warrant
Price"), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth. As used herein, (a) the term "Series Preferred" shall mean the
Company's presently authorized Series A Preferred Stock, and any stock into or
for which such Series A Preferred Stock may hereafter be converted or exchanged,
(b) the term "Date of Grant" shall mean October 4, 1996, and (c) the term "Other
Warrants" shall mean any other warrants issued by the Company in connection with
the transaction with respect to which this Warrant was issued, and any warrant
issued upon transfer or partial exercise of this Warrant. The term "Warrant" as
used herein shall be deemed to include Other Warrants unless the context clearly
requires otherwise.
1. Term. The purchase right represented by this Warrant is exercisable,
----
in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time from the Date of Grant
through the later of (i) ten (10) years after the Date of Grant or (ii) five (5)
years after the closing of the Company's initial public offering of its Common
Stock effected pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (or its
successor) filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").
2. Method of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of New Warrant. Subject to
----------------------------------------------------
Section 1 hereof, the purchase right represented by this Warrant may be
exercised by the holder hereof, in whole or in part and from time to time, by
either, at the election of the holder hereof, (a) the surrender of this Warrant
(with the notice of exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly executed) at
the principal office of the
1
Company and by the payment to the Company, by check, of an amount equal to the
then applicable Warrant Price multiplied by the number of Shares then being
purchased, or (b) if in connection with a registered public offering of the
Company's securities, the surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise
form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 duly executed) at the principal office of
the Company together with notice of arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the
Company for payment to the Company either by check or from the proceeds of the
sale of shares to be sold by the holder in such public offering of an amount
equal to the then applicable Warrant Price per share multiplied by the number of
Shares then being purchased. The person or persons in whose name(s) any
certificate(s) representing shares of Series Preferred shall be issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder(s) of record
of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of, the shares
represented thereby (and such shares shall be deemed to have been issued)
immediately prior to the close of business on the date or dates upon which this
Warrant is exercised. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by
this Warrant, certificates for the shares of stock so purchased shall be
delivered to the holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within
thirty days after such exercise and, unless this Warrant has been fully
exercised or expired, a new Warrant representing the portion of the Shares, if
any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall
also be issued to the holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within
such thirty-day period.
3. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. All Shares that may be issued
---------------------------------------
upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance
pursuant to the terms and conditions herein, be fully paid and nonassessable,
and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be
exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the
purpose of the issue upon exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this
Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of its Series Preferred to provide for
the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant and a sufficient number
of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the conversion of the Series
Preferred into Common Stock.
4. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Shares. The number and kind
------------------------------------------------
of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant
Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of
certain events, as follows:
(a) Reclassification or Merger. In case of any reclassification,
--------------------------
change or conversion of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or
from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination),
or in case of any merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a merger with another corporation in which the Company is the acquiring and
the surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or
change of outstanding securities
2
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in case of any sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company, or such successor
or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall duly execute and deliver to
the holder of this Warrant a new Warrant (in form and substance satisfactory to
the holder of this Warrant), so that the holder of this Warrant shall have the
right to receive, at a total purchase price not to exceed that payable upon the
exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares
of Series Preferred theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind
and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable
upon such reclassification, change or merger by a holder of the number of shares
of Series Preferred then purchasable under this Warrant. Such new Warrant shall
provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable
to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. In addition, in the event
that all the authorized shares of Series Preferred are converted into shares of
Common Stock or any other series or class of capital stock of the Company or in
the case of any amendment or waiver of any of the terms of the antidilution
protection of the Series Preferred, then this Warrant shall be deemed to be
amended so that the holder of this Warrant shall continue to be entitled to
antidilution protection as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
antidilution protection applicable to the Series Preferred on the Date of Grant,
and the Company shall duly execute and deliver to the holder of this Warrant a
supplement hereto to such effect, in form and substance satisfactory to the
holder of this Warrant. The provisions of this subparagraph (a) shall similarly
apply to successive reclassifications, changes, mergers, consolidations,
transfers, amendments and waivers.
(b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time
------------------------------------
while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine
its outstanding shares of Series Preferred, the Warrant Price shall be
proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case
of a combination, effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision
or combination becomes effective.
(c) Stock Dividends and Other Distributions. If the Company at any
---------------------------------------
time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall (i) pay a dividend
with respect to Series Preferred payable in Series Preferred, or (ii) make any
other distribution with respect to Series Preferred (except any distribution
specifically provided for in the foregoing subparagraphs (a) and (b)) of Series
Preferred, then the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of
determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution,
to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such date of determination by a fraction (i) the numerator of which
shall be the total number of shares of Series Preferred outstanding immediately
prior to such dividend or distribution, and (ii) the denominator of which shall
be the total number of shares of Series Preferred outstanding immediately after
such dividend or distribution.
3
(d) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the
------------------------------
Warrant Price, the number of Shares of Series Preferred purchasable hereunder
shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole share, to the product obtained by
multiplying the number of Shares purchasable immediately prior to such
adjustment in the Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of
which shall be the Warrant Price immediately thereafter.
(e) Antidilution Rights. The other antidilution rights applicable to
-------------------
the Shares and the Common Stock of the Company are set forth in Section 3(d) of
the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended through the Date of Grant
(the "Charter"), a true and complete copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
B. Such antidilution rights shall not be restated, amended, modified or waived
in any manner that is adverse to the holder hereof without such holder's prior
written consent. The Company shall promptly provide the holder hereof with any
restatement, amendment, modification or waiver of the Charter promptly after the
same has been made.
5. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Price or the number of
---------------------
Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof, the
Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial officer setting
forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of
the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the
Warrant Price and the number of Shares purchasable hereunder after giving effect
to such adjustment, which shall be mailed (without regard to Section 13 hereof,
by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the holder of this Warrant. In
addition, whenever the conversion price or conversion ratio of the Series
Preferred shall be adjusted, the Company shall make a certificate signed by its
chief financial officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring
the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such
adjustment was calculated, and the conversion price or ratio of the Series
Preferred after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such
certificate to be mailed (without regard to Section 13 hereof, by first class
mail, postage prepaid) to the holder of this Warrant.
6. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Series Preferred will be
-----------------
issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional
shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based on the fair market
value of the Series Preferred on the date of exercise as reasonably determined
in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors.
7. Compliance with Securities Act: Disposition of Warrant or Shares of
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Series Preferred.
----------------
(a) Compliance with Securities Act. The holder of this Warrant, by
------------------------------
acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, and the shares of Series Preferred
to be
4
issued upon exercise hereof and any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof
are being acquired for investment and that such holder will not offer, sell or
otherwise dispose of this Warrant, or any shares of Series Preferred to be
issued upon exercise hereof or any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof
except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the Act. Upon
exercise of this Warrant, unless the Shares being acquired are registered under
the Act or an exemption from such registration is available, the holder hereof
shall confirm in writing, by executing the form attached as Schedule 1 to
Exhibit A hereto, that the shares of Series Preferred so purchased (and any
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof) are being acquired for
investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale. This Warrant and
all shares of Series Preferred issued upon exercise of this Warrant and all
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof (unless registered under
the Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the
following form:
"THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE OR
DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT (i) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENTS
RELATED THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, REASONABLY
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED, (iii)
RECEIPT OF NO-ACTION LETTERS FROM THE APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES, OR
(iv) OTHERWISE COMPLYING WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 7 OF THE WARRANT UNDER
WHICH THESE SECURITIES WERE ISSUED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY."
In addition, in connection with the issuance of this Warrant, the holder
specifically represents to the Company by acceptance of this Warrant as follows:
(1) The holder is aware of the Company's business affairs and financial
condition, and has acquired information about the Company sufficient to reach an
informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire this Warrant. The holder is
acquiring this Warrant for its own account for investment purposes only and not
with a view to, or for the resale in connection with, any "distribution" thereof
for purposes of the Act.
(2) The holder understands that this Warrant has not been registered under
the Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends
upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the holder's investment intent
as expressed herein. In this connection, the holder understands that, in the
view of the SEC, the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if
the holder's representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to
hold the Warrant for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax
statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the
market price of the Warrant, or for a period of one year or any other fixed
period in the future.
5
(3) The holder further understands that this Warrant must be held
indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act and any applicable
state securities laws, or unless exemptions from registration are otherwise
available. Moreover, the holder understands that, except as provided in Section
9 hereof, the Company is under no obligation to register this Warrant.
(4) The holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 and 144A,
promulgated under the Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of
"restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer
thereof (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject
to the satisfaction of certain conditions, if applicable, including, among other
things: The availability of certain public information about the Company, the
resale occurring not less than two years after the party has purchased and paid
for the securities to be sold; the sale being made through a broker in an
unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a market
maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended) and the amount of securities being sold during any three-month period
not exceeding the specified limitations stated therein.
(5) The holder further understands that at the time it wishes to sell this
Warrant there may be no public market upon which to make such a sale, and that,
even if such a public market then exists, the Company may not be satisfying the
current public information requirements of Rule 144 and 144A, and that, in such
event, the holder may be precluded from selling this Warrant under Rule 144 and
144A even if the two-year minimum holding period had been satisfied.
(6) The holder further understands that in the event all of the
requirements of Rule 144 and 144A are not satisfied, registration under the Act,
compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be
required; and that, not withstanding the fact that Rule 144 and 144A are not
exclusive, the Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing
to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and
otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 and 144A will have a substantial burden of
proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such
offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who
participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.
(b) Disposition of Warrant or Shares. With respect to any offer, sale
--------------------------------
or other disposition of this Warrant or any shares of Series Preferred acquired
pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant prior to registration of such Warrant
or shares, the holder hereof and each subsequent holder of this Warrant agree to
give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner
thereof, together with a written opinion of such holder's counsel, if reasonably
requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other
disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the Act
as then in effect or any federal or state law then in effect) of this Warrant or
such shares of Series Preferred or Common Stock and indicating whether or not
under the Act certificates for this
6
Warrant or such shares of Series Preferred to be sold or otherwise disposed of
require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability
in order to ensure compliance with such law. Promptly upon receiving such
written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion, if so requested, the
Company, as promptly as practicable shall notify such holder that such holder
may sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or such shares of Series Preferred
or Common Stock, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the
Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this subsection (b) that
the opinion of counsel for the holder is not reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, the Company shall so notify the holder promptly after such
determination has been made and shall specify in detail the legal analysis
supporting any such conclusion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Warrant or
such shares of Series Preferred or Common Stock may, as to such federal laws, be
offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 or 144A under
the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such
information as the Company may reasonably request to provide a reasonable
assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 or 144A have been satisfied. Each
certificate representing this Warrant or the shares of Series Preferred thus
transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144 or 144A) shall bear a legend
as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure
compliance with such laws, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel for the
holder, such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with such
laws. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in
connection with such restrictions.
(c) Excepted Transfers. Neither any restrictions of any legend
------------------
described in this Warrant nor the requirements of Section 7(b) above shall apply
to any transfer without any additional consideration of, or grant of a security
interest in, this Warrant or any part hereof (i) to a partner of the holder if
the holder is a partnership, (ii) by the holder to a partnership of which the
holder is a general partner, or (iii) to any affiliate of the holder if the
holder is a corporation; provided, however, in any such transfer, the transferee
-------- -------
shall on the Company's request agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this
Warrant as if an original signatory hereto.
8. Rights as Shareholders; Information. No holder of this Warrant, as
-----------------------------------
such, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of
Series Preferred or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be
issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained
herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, as such, any of
the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election
of directors or upon any matter submitted to shareholders at any meeting
thereof, or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or
subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised
and the Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become
deliverable, as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will
transmit to the holder of this Warrant such information, documents and reports
as are generally distributed to the holders of any class or
7
series of the securities of the Company concurrently with the distribution
thereof to the shareholders.
9. [lntentionally Deleted.]
10. Additional Rights.
-----------------
10.1 Secondary Sales. The Company agrees that it will not interfere
---------------
with the holder of this Warrant in obtaining liquidity if opportunities to make
secondary sales of the Company's securities become available. To this end, the
Company will promptly provide the holder of this Warrant with the same notice
(if any) as it provides to other holders of the Company's securities of any
offer to acquire from the Company's security holders more than five percent (5%)
of the total voting power of the Company and will not interfere with the holder
in arranging the sale of this Warrant to the person or persons making such
offer.
10.2 Mergers. The Company will provide the holder of this Warrant
-------
with at least 30 days' notice of the terms and conditions of any proposed (i)
sale, lease, exchange, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially
all of its property or business, or (ii) merger into or consolidation with any
other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), or any
other transaction (including a merger or other reorganization) or series of
related transactions, in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company
is disposed of.
10.3 Right to Convert Warrant into Common Stock: Net Issuance.
--------------------------------------------------------
(a) Right to Convert. In addition to and without limiting the
----------------
rights of the holder under the terms of this Warrant, the holder shall have the
right to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the "Conversion Right")
into shares of Series Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series Preferred has
been automatically converted into Common Stock) as provided in this Section 10.3
at any time or from time to time during the term of this Warrant. Upon exercise
of the Conversion Right with respect to a particular number of shares subject to
this Warrant (the "Converted Warrant Shares"), the Company shall deliver to the
holder (without payment by the holder of any exercise price or any cash or other
consideration) (X) that number of shares of fully paid and nonassessable Series
Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically
converted into Common Stock) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the
value of this Warrant (or the specified portion hereof) on the Conversion Date
(as defined in subsection (b) hereof), which value shall be determined by
subtracting (A) the aggregate Warrant Price of the Converted Warrant Shares
immediately prior to the exercise of the Conversion Right from (B) the aggregate
fair market value of the Converted Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant (or the specified portion hereof) on the Conversion Date (as herein
defined) by (Y) the fair market value of one share of Series Preferred (or
8
Common Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically converted into
Common Stock) on the Conversion Date (as herein defined).
Expressed as a formula, such conversion shall be computed as follows:
X = B - A
-----
Y
Where: X = the number of shares of Series Preferred (or Common Stock) that
may be issued to holder
Y = the fair market value (FMV) of one share of Series Preferred (or
Common Stock)
A = the aggregate Warrant Price (i.e., Converted Warrant Shares x
Warrant Price)
B = the aggregate FMV (i.e., FMV x Converted Warrant Shares)
No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion
Right, and, if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with
the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the
holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting
fractional share on the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined).
(b) Method of Exercise. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the
------------------
holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company
together with a notice of exercise substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A-2, specifying that the holder thereby intends to exercise the
Conversion Right and indicating the number of shares subject to this Warrant
that are being surrendered (referred to in subsection (a) hereof as the
Converted Warrant Shares) in exercise of the Conversion Right. Such conversion
shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant together with the
aforesaid notice of exercise, or on such later date as is specified therein (the
"Conversion Date"), and, at the election of the holder hereof, may be made
contingent upon the closing of the sale of the Company's Common Stock to the
public in a public offering pursuant to a Registration Statement under the Act
(a "Public Offering"). Certificates for the shares issuable upon exercise of the
Conversion Right and, if applicable, a new warrant evidencing the balance of the
shares remaining subject to this Warrant, shall be issued as of the Conversion
Date and shall be delivered to the holder within thirty (30) days following the
Conversion Date. Any conversion from Series Preferred to Common Stock shall be
in a ratio of one (1) share of Common Stock for each share of Series Preferred
(as adjusted herein and in the Charter). On the Date of ▇▇▇▇▇, the Series
Preferred purchasable under this Warrant represents underlying shares of Common
Stock at $1.00 per share.
9
(c) Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section
----------------------------------
10.3, "fair market value" of a share of Series Preferred (or Common Stock if the
Series Preferred has been automatically converted into Common Stock) as of a
particular date .(the "Determination Date") shall mean:
(i) If the Conversion Right is exercised in connection with and
contingent upon a Public Offering, and if the Company's Registration Statement
relating to such Public Offering ("Registration Statement") has been declared
effective by the SEC, then the initial "Price to Public" specified in the final
prospectus with respect to such offering multiplied by the number of shares of
Common Stock into which each share of Series Preferred is then convertible.
(ii) If the Conversion Right is not exercised in connection with
and contingent upon a Public Offering, then as follows:
(A) If traded on a securities exchange or the Nasdaq
National Market, the fair market value of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be
the average of the closing or last reported sale prices of the Common Stock on
such exchange or market over the 30-day period ending five business days prior
to the Determination Date, and the fair market value of the Series Preferred
shall be deemed to be such fair market value of the Common Stock multiplied by
the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series Preferred
is then convertible;
(B) If otherwise traded in an over-the-counter market, the
fair market value of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the
closing ask prices of the Common Stock over the 30-day period ending five
business days prior to the Determination Date, and the fair market value of the
Series Preferred shall be deemed to be such fair market value of the Common
Stock multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share
of Series Preferred is then convertible; and
(C) If there is no public market for the Common Stock, then
fair market value shall be determined by mutual agreement of the holder of this
Warrant and the Company, and if the holder and the Company are unable to so
agree, at the Company's sole expense by an investment banker of national
reputation selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the holder of
this Warrant.

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT
Purchaser:
Company: Copper Mountain Communications, Inc.
Security: Series A Preferred Stock
Amount:
Date:
In connection with the purchase of the above-listed securities and
underlying Common Stock (the "Securities") the undersigned (the "Purchaser")
represents to the Company as follows:
(a) The Purchaser is aware of the Company's business affairs and financial
condition, and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an
informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. The Purchaser is
purchasing the Securities for its own account for investment purposes only and
not with a view to, or for the resale in connection with, any "distribution"
thereof for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").
(b) The Purchaser understands that the Securities have not been registered
under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which
exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the
Purchaser's investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, the
Purchaser understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if
the Purchaser's representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to
hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax
statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the
market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed
period in the future.
(c) The Purchaser further understands that the Securities must be held
indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act or unless an exemption
from registration is otherwise available. Moreover, the Purchaser understands
that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities except as set
forth in the Warrant under which the Securities are being acquired. In addition,
the Purchaser understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be
imprinted with the legend referred to in the Warrant under which the Securities
are being purchased.
17
(d) The Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 and 144A,
promulgated under the Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of
"restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer
thereof (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject
to the satisfaction of certain conditions, if applicable, including, among other
things: The availability of certain public information about the Company, the
resale occurring not less than two years after the party has purchased and paid
for the securities to be sold; the sale being made through a broker in an
unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a market
maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended) and the amount of securities being sold during any three-month period
not exceeding the specified limitations stated therein.
(e) The Purchaser further understands that at the time it wishes to sell
the Securities there may be no public market upon which to make such a sale, and
that, even if such a public market then exists, the Company may not be
satisfying the current public information requirements of Rule 144 and 144A, and
that, in such event, the Purchaser may be precluded from selling the Securities
under Rule 144 and 144A even if the two-year minimum holding period had been
satisfied.
(f) The Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the
requirements of Rule 144 and 144A are not satisfied, registration under the Act,
compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be
required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the
Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell
private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise
than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in
establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or
sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in
such transactions do so at their own risk.
