4. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares.
(a) The Exercise Price and Warrant Shares shall be subject to the following adjustments:
(i) If, at any time during the Exercise Period, the Company shall declare and pay on the Company’s Common Stock a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, the Warrant Shares shall be proportionately increased so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive (upon exercise of this Warrant) the number of shares of Common Stock which the Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after the declaration and payment of such dividend or other distribution if the Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased so that the aggregate Exercise Price payable upon exercise in full of this Warrant shall remain the same.
(ii) If, at any time during the Exercise Period, the Company shall subdivide the Outstanding Shares of the Company’s Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or combine the Outstanding Shares of Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, or issue by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock any shares of the Company’s Common Stock, the Warrant Shares shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive (upon exercise of this Warrant) the number of shares of Common Stock or such other shares which the Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above if the Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event on the day upon which such subdivision, combination or reclassification, as the case may be, becomes effective, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately adjusted so that the aggregate Exercise Price payable upon exercise in full of this Warrant shall remain the same.
(b) Whenever the Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 4, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the new Warrant Shares and Exercise Price. All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest one-one hundredth of a share.
5. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.
6. Net Exercise. Holder, in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of the Exercise Price in immediately available funds pursuant to Section 3(a), may elect, at any time on or before the expiration of the Exercise Period, to surrender this Warrant and receive that number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
Y(A - B)
X = ---------------
A
Where: X | = | the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder. | ||||||
| Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ would otherwise have been entitled to purchase hereunder pursuant to Section 2(a) (or such lesser number of shares as Holder may designate in the case of a partial exercise of this Warrant). | ||||||
| A | = | the NYSE closing price on the last Trading Day prior to exercise of this Warrant. | ||||||
| B | = | the Exercise Price. | ||||||
3
Election to exercise under this Section 6 may be made by delivering to Company a signed Notice of Exercise form in accordance with Section 3(a), to be followed by delivery of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant, if as of the close of business on the last Business Day preceding the Expiration Date this Warrant remains unexercised as to all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder, then effective as 9:00 a.m. (Pacific time) on the Expiration Date, Holder shall be deemed, automatically and without need for notice to Company, to have elected to exercise this Warrant in full pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6, and upon surrender of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive that number of shares of Common Stock computed using the above formula, provided that the application of such formula as of the Expiration Date yields a positive number for “X”.
7. Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control (as hereinafter defined), this Warrant shall be automatically exchanged for a number of shares of Company’s securities, such number of shares being equal to the maximum number of shares issuable pursuant to the terms hereof (after taking into account all adjustments described herein) had Holder elected to exercise this Warrant immediately prior to the closing of such Change of Control and purchased all such shares pursuant to the “cash exercise” provision set forth in Section 3(a) hereof (as opposed to the “net exercise” provision set forth in Section 6 hereof). Company acknowledges and agrees that Holder shall not be required to make any payment (cash or otherwise) for such shares as further consideration for their issuance pursuant to the terms of the preceding sentence. “Change of Control” shall mean: (a) any sale, license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Company; or (b) any reorganization, consolidation, merger or other transaction involving Company; in each of clause (a) and (b) where the holders of Company’s securities before the transaction beneficially own less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction; provided that an issuance of equity securities for the primary purpose of raising capital shall not be considered a Change of Control under this Warrant. This Warrant shall terminate upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s receipt of the number of shares of Company’s equity securities described in this Section 7.
8. Representations of the Company. The Company represents that (i) all corporate actions on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the sale and issuance of this Warrant have been taken; (ii) upon exercise of this Warrant, the Common Stock will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and are exempt from the qualification requirements of any applicable state securities laws; and neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemptions; (iii) the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant on the NYSE, for so long as the Company’s Common Stock is listed on the NYSE; (iv) upon exercise of this Warrant, if the Company’s Common Stock is then certificated, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause stock certificates representing the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise to be issued in the names of Holder, its nominees or assignees, as appropriate at the time of such exercise.
9. Shares of Common Stock in Reserve. The Company shall at all times to reserve a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock for the purposes of this Warrant, and to take such action as may be necessary to ensure that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable.
10. Rights of Stockholders. The Holder shall not be entitled, as a warrant holder, to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of the Warrant Shares 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, as a warrant holder, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.
11. Compliance with Securities Laws.
(a) By its acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder represents, warrants, and covenants unto the Company, and acknowledge as appropriate, that: (i) the Holder is an “accredited investor,” as that term is defined pursuant to the securities law of the United Sates and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”); (ii) the Holder has sufficient business and financial knowledge and experience so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Warrant Shares, and is able financially to bear the risks thereof; (iii) the Holder has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management and financial affairs with the Company’s management; (iv) this Warrant is acquired for the Holder’s own account for investment purposes; (v) this Warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise hereof, respectively, have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and, accordingly, any transfer of this Warrant and such Warrant Shares will be subject to legal restrictions; and (vi) the Holder will not offer for sale or sell, assign or otherwise dispose of (except exercise) this
4
Warrant or any Warrant Shares issued to it pursuant to exercise hereof, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant, if at any time specified herein for the issuance of Warrant Shares to the Holder, any law, or any regulation or requirement of the SEC or any other federal, state or local governmental authority having jurisdiction, shall require either the Company or the Holder to take any action in connection with the Warrant Shares then to be issued, other than (i) customary approvals required by applicable corporation laws, or (ii) notice filings on SEC Form D and similar or related federal, state or local filings (the actions described in clauses (i) and (ii) are collectively referred to as the “Required Actions”), to the extent such action is required to be taken prior to the issuance of such Warrant Shares the issuance of such Warrant Shares shall be deferred until such action shall have been taken. The Company shall be under no obligation to take such action, other than a Required Action, and the Company shall have no liability whatsoever as a result of the
non-issuance of such Warrant Shares as a result of not taking such action, other than a Required Action, except to refund to the Holder any consideration tendered in respect of the Exercise Price.
(c) Unless and until the Warrant Shares have been registered in the Act, all stock certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares shall be restricted by a legend on each certificate in substantially the following form:
The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. These shares have been acquired for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale, and may not be mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise transferred without an effective registration statement for such shares under the Securities Act of 1933 or an opinion of counsel for the corporation that registration is not required under such Act.
12. Replacement Warrant for Lost Certificate. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto (and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant if mutilated), the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor, in lieu of this Warrant.
13. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this Warrant for any issue tax (other than applicable income taxes) in respect thereof.
14. Closing of Books. The Company shall not close its transfer books against the transfer of any warrant or of any Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of any warrant in any manner that interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.
15. Warrant Agent. By notice to the holder of this Warrant, the Company may appoint a warrant agent as the Company’s agent for purposes of the administration of this Warrant and the exercise thereof (the “Warrant Agent”), and in such case the Holder shall abide by any such Warrant Agent’s instructions and procedures not inconsistent with the provisions of this Warrant.
16. Rights and Obligations Survive Exercise of Warrant. Unless otherwise provided herein, the rights and obligations of the Company, of the holder of this Warrant and of the holder of the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant, shall survive the exercise of this Warrant.
5
17. Notices. Unless Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to Holder or Company shall be in writing and personally delivered, sent by overnight courier, or United States mail, postage prepaid, or sent by facsimile or electronic mail, or other authenticated message, charges prepaid, to the other party’s or parties’ addresses shown on the books of Company (in the case of the Holder) at the address indicated therefor in the opening paragraphs of this Warrant (in the case of the Company). Each party may change the address, facsimile number or email address to which notices, requests and other communications are to be sent by giving written notice of such change to each other party.

18. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware as applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Delaware.
19. Assignability and Binding Effect. The Company and any Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner of this Warrant, for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the holder of this Warrant, and for all other purposes. Without the prior written consent of the Company, this Warrant may not be assigned by the Holder other than to an Affiliate of the Holder, and in the case of a permitted assignment the Form of Transfer attached hereto as Exhibit B shall be used to effect such permitted assignment. This Warrant shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Holder, and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Without limiting the foregoing, each Holder and each person to whom this Warrant is subsequently transferred represents and warrants to the Company and agrees (by acceptance of such transfer) that it will not transfer this Warrant unless (i) there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws covering any such transaction, (ii) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any other rule under the Securities Act relating to the disposition of securities), (iii) the Company receives an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that an exemption from such registration is available or (iv) the Company otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is exempt from registration.
