(hereinafter called the "Warrants") entitling the holders thereof to purchase an
aggregate of _________ shares of Common Stock of the Company (par value $1.00
per share) (hereinafter called the "Shares") at an initial cash purchase price

[IF WARRANTS ARE ATTACHED TO OTHER SECURITIES, INSERT --
WHEREAS, the Warrants will be offered in Units, each of which consists
of _______________________ and Warrants to purchase _________ Shares; and]
WHEREAS, the Company desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the
Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing so to act, in connection with the
issuance, registration, transfer, exchange and exercise of Warrants to be issued
from time to time by the Company,
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 1. Appointment of Warrant Agent. The Company hereby appoints
the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company in accordance with the
instructions hereinafter in this Agreement set forth, and the Warrant Agent
hereby accepts such appointment.
Section 2. Form of Warrant. The text of the Warrants and the form of
election to purchase Shares to be set forth on the reverse thereof shall be
substantially as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. Each Warrant shall,
subject to the terms of this Warrant Agreement, entitle the registered holder
thereof to initially purchase the number of Shares specified therein at an
initial exercise price of $______ per Share; provided, however, that the warrant
exercise price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants are
subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events, all as hereinafter
provided. The Warrants shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the manual
or facsimile signature of the present or any future Chairman of the Board,
President or Vice President of the Company, under its seal, affixed or in
facsimile, and by
the manual or facsimile signature of the present or any future Secretary or
Assistant Secretary of the Company.
The Company shall promptly notify the Warrant Agent from time to time
in writing of the number of Warrants to be issued and furnish written
instructions in connection therewith signed by an executive officer of the
Company; such notification and instructions may, but need not be, in the form of
a general or continuing authorization to the Warrant Agent.
The Warrants shall be dated by the Warrant Agent as of the date of
each initial issuance, and as of the date of issuance thereof upon any transfer
or exchange thereof.
Section 3. Countersignature and Registration. The Warrant Agent
shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrants. Upon
the initial issuance of the Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall issue and register
the Warrants in the names of the respective registered holders thereof. The
Warrants shall be countersigned by the Warrant Agent (or by any successor to the
Warrant Agent then acting as warrant agent under this Agreement) and shall not
be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. Such Warrants may be so
countersigned, however, by the Warrant Agent (or by its successor as warrant
agent) and be delivered by the Warrant Agent, notwithstanding that the persons
whose manual or facsimile signatures appear thereon as proper officers of the
Company shall have ceased to be such officers at the time of such
countersignature or delivery. Upon issuance of any Warrant, the Company will
present the same, or cause the same to be presented, to the Warrant Agent for
countersignature of such Warrant.
Section 4. Transfers and Exchanges. The Warrant Agent shall
transfer, from time to time, any outstanding Warrants upon the books to be
maintained by the Warrant Agent for that purpose, upon the surrender
thereof for transfer properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate
instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant of like tenor
shall be issued to the transferee and the surrendered Warrant shall be cancelled
by the Warrant Agent. All such Warrants so cancelled shall be delivered by the
Warrant Agent to the Company from time to time. The Warrants may be exchanged at
the option of the holder thereof, when surrendered at the office in
______________________________________ of the Warrant Agent, for another
Warrant, or other Warrants of different denominations, of like tenor and
representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a like number of Shares. The
Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to countersign and deliver, in
accordance with the provisions of this Section and Section 3 of this Agreement,
such new Warrants required pursuant to the provisions of this Section, and the
Company, whenever required by the Warrant Agent, will supply the Warrant Agent
with Warrants duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.

[IF THE WARRANTS ARE ATTACHED TO OTHER SECURITIES, INSERT --
Notwithstanding the foregoing, until __________________, the Warrants
shall not be transferable apart from the _____________ to which they are
attached, any transfer of the _____________ shall be deemed a transfer of the
Warrants attached thereto, and any attempt to transfer the Warrants apart from
the ___________________ shall be void and of no effect. Each Warrant shall
contain a legend to the foregoing effect.]
Section 5. Exercise of Warrants. The registered holder of each
Warrant shall have the right, which may be exercised as in such Warrant
expressed, to purchase from the Company (and the Company shall issue and sell to
such registered holder) the number of Shares specified in such Warrants, upon
surrender to the Company, at the office in _____________________________ of the
Warrant Agent of such Warrant, with the form of election to purchase on the
reverse thereof duly filled in and signed, and upon payment to the Warrant Agent
for the account of the Company of the warrant exercise price, determined in
accordance with the provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement, for the number of
Shares in respect of which such Warrant is then exercised. Payment of such
warrant exercise price may be made in cash, or by certified check or bank draft
or postal or express money order, payable in United States dollars, to the order
of the Warrant Agent. No adjustment shall be made for any dividends on any
Shares issuable upon exercise of any Warrant. Subject to Section 6, upon such
surrender of Warrants, and payment of the warrant exercise price as aforesaid,
the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch
to or upon the written order of the registered holder of such Warrants, and in
such name or names as such registered holder may designate, a certificate or
certificates for the number of full Shares so purchased upon the exercise of
such Warrants, together with cash, as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement,
in respect of any fraction of a Share otherwise issuable upon such surrender.
Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any
person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder
of record of such Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and
payment of the warrant exercise price as aforesaid; provided, however, that if,
at the date of surrender of such Warrants and payment of such warrant exercise
price, the transfer books for the Shares purchasable upon the exercise of such
Warrants shall be closed, no such surrender of such Warrants and no such payment
of such warrant exercise price shall be effective to constitute the person so
designated to be named therein as the holder of record of such Shares on such
date, but shall be effective to constitute such person as the holder of record
of such Shares for all purposes at the opening of business on the next
succeeding day on which the transfer books for the Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of such Warrants shall be opened, and the certificates for the Shares
in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised shall be issuable as of the
date on which such books shall next be opened, and until such date the Company
shall be under no duty to deliver any certificate for such Shares. The rights
of purchase represented by the Warrants shall be exercisable, at the election of
the registered holders thereof, either as an entirety or from time to time for
part only of the Shares specified therein and, in the event that any Warrant is
exercised in respect of less than all of the Shares specified therein at any
time prior to the date of expiration of the Warrants, a new Warrant or Warrants
of like tenor will be issued for the remaining number of
-3-
Shares specified in the Warrant so surrendered, and the Warrant Agent is hereby
irrevocably authorized to countersign and to deliver the required new Warrants
pursuant to the provisions of this Section and of Section 3 of this Agreement,
and the Company, whenever required by the Warrant Agent, will supply the Warrant
Agent with Warrants duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.
Section 6. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary
stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Shares issuable upon the
exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required
to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issue or delivery of any certificates for Shares in a name other than
that of the registered holder of Warrants in respect of which such Shares are
issued and the Company shall not be required to issue and deliver the
certificates for such Shares unless and until the holder has paid to the Company
the amount of any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in such issuance or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Company that such
tax has been paid.
Section 7. Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case any of the
Warrants shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company will issue
and the Warrant Agent will countersign and deliver in exchange and substitution
for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and
substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like
tenor and representing an equivalent right or interest, but only upon receipt of
evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant Agent of such loss, theft
or destruction of such Warrants and indemnity, if requested, also satisfactory
to them. Applicants for such substitute Warrants shall also comply with such
other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the
Company or the Warrant Agent may prescribe. Any such new Warrant shall
constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company whether or not the
allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone.
Section 8. Reservation of Shares, etc. Prior to the issuance of any
Warrants there shall have been reserved, and the Company shall at all times
through the expiration date keep reserved, out of its authorized and unissued
Common Stock, a number of Shares sufficient to provide for the exercise of the
rights of purchase represented by the Warrants, and the Transfer Agent for the
Shares and every subsequent Transfer Agent for the Shares issuable upon the
exercise of any of the rights of purchase aforesaid are hereby irrevocably
authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized and
unissued Shares as shall be requisite for such purpose. The Company will keep a
copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent for the Shares and with
every subsequent Transfer Agent for the Shares issuable upon the exercise of the
rights of purchase represented by the Warrants. The Warrant Agent is hereby
irrevocably authorized to requisition from time to time from such Transfer Agent
certificates required to honor outstanding Warrants that have been exercised.
The Company will supply such Transfer Agent with duly executed certificates for
such purpose and will itself provide or otherwise make available any cash which
may be issuable as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement. All Warrants
surrendered in the exercise of the rights thereby evidenced or surrendered for
transfer, exchange or
-4-
partial exercise shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent and shall thereafter be
delivered to the Company.
Section 9. Warrant Price; Adjustments.
A. The warrant price per share at which Shares shall be purchasable
upon exercise of Warrants (herein called the "warrant exercise price") to and
including the expiration date (unless the expiration date is extended as
provided below in this Section 9A) shall be $______ per share, or, if adjusted
as provided in this Section, shall be such price as so adjusted. The Warrants
will not be exercisable prior to [the close of business on the date of any
initial issuance thereof] [_____________________] and will expire at 3:30 p.m.,
New York City time, on the expiration date; provided that the Company reserves
the right to, and may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to
time, at such time or times as the Company so determines, extend the expiration
date of the Warrants for such periods of time as it chooses; further provided
that in no case may the expiration date of the Warrants (as extended) be
extended beyond five years from the expiration date set forth above. Whenever
the expiration date of the Warrants is so extended, the Company shall at least
20 days prior to the then expiration date cause to be mailed to the Warrant
Agent and the registered holders of the Warrants in accordance with the
provisions of Section 17 hereof a notice stating that the expiration date has
been extended and setting forth the new expiration date.
B. The above provision is, however, subject to the following:
(1) The warrant purchase price, the number of Shares purchasable
upon exercise of each Warrant and the number of Warrants outstanding shall
be subject to adjustment as follows:
(a) In case the Company shall at any time after the date of
this Agreement (i) pay a dividend, or make a distribution, on the
Common Stock which is payable in shares of its capital stock (whether
shares of Common Stock or of capital stock of any other class), (ii)
subdivide or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of securities (including shares of Common Stock), or
(iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares (including shares of Common Stock),
the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant
immediately prior to the occurrence of such event shall be adjusted so
that the holder of each Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon
payment of the warrant purchase price the aggregate number of shares
of the Company which, if such Warrant had been exercised immediately
prior to the occurrence of such event, such holder would have owned or
have been entitled to receive immediately after the occurrence of such
event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subparagraph (a) shall
become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a
dividend and shall become effective immediately after the effective
date in the case of a subdivision or
-5-
combination. If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this
subparagraph (a), the holder of any Warrant thereafter exercised shall
become entitled to receive shares of two or more classes of capital
stock of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company (whose
determination shall be conclusive) shall determine the allocation
between or among shares of such classes of capital stock.
In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment
made pursuant to this subparagraph (a), the holder of any Warrant
thereafter exercised shall become entitled to receive any shares or
other securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock,
thereafter the number of such other shares so received upon exercise
of any Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a
manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the
provisions with respect to the shares of Common Stock contained in
this paragraph, and other provisions of this paragraph 9B(1) with
respect to the shares of Common Stock shall apply on like terms to any
such other shares or other securities.
[(b) In case the Company shall fix a record date for the
issuance of rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock
entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after such record
date) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share
less than the current market price per share of Common Stock (as
defined in subparagraph (e) below) at such record date, the warrant
purchase price shall be determined by multiplying the warrant purchase
price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares of Common Stock
outstanding on such record date plus the number of Shares of Common
Stock which the aggregate offering price of the total number of Shares
so offered would purchase at such current market price, and the
denominator of which shall be the number of Shares of Common Stock
outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Shares
of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase. Such adjustment
shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, and
shall become effective immediately after such record date. In
determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to
subscribe for or purchase Shares of Common Stock at less than such
current market price, and in determining the aggregate offering price
of such shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration
received by the Company for such rights or warrants, the value of such
consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of
Directors of the Company. Common Stock owned by or held for the
account of the Company or any majority owned subsidiary shall not be
deemed outstanding for the purpose of any adjustment required under
this subparagraph (b).]
[(c) In case the Company shall fix a record date for making
a distribution to all holders of its Common Stock of evidences of its
indebtedness or
-6-
assets (excluding regular quarterly or other periodic or recurring
cash dividends or distributions and cash dividends or distributions
paid from retained earnings or referred to in subparagraph (a) above)
or rights or warrants to subscribe or warrants to purchase (excluding
those referred to in subparagraph (b) above), then in each such case
the warrant purchase price shall be determined by multiplying the
warrant purchase price in effect immediately prior to such record date
by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be such current market
price (as defined in subparagraph (e) below) per Share of Common Stock
on such record date, less the then fair market value (as determined in
good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be
conclusive) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness
so distributed or of such subscription rights or warrants applicable
to one share of the Common Stock and (y) the denominator of which
shall be the current market price per share of the Common Stock on
such record date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever
such a record date is fixed and shall become effective immediately
after such record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
that the Company shall distribute any rights or warrants to acquire
capital stock ("Rights") pursuant to this subparagraph (c), the
distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights
subsequent to their initial distribution (whether or not such
distribution shall have occurred prior to the date of the issuance of
such Warrants) shall be deemed to be the distribution of such Rights
for purposes of this subparagraph (c), provided that the Company may,
in lieu of making any adjustment pursuant to this subparagraph (c)
upon a distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights,
make proper provision so that each holder of such Warrants who
exercises such Warrants (or any portion thereof) (A) before the record
date for such distribution of separate certificates shall be entitled
to receive upon such exercise shares of Common Stock issued with
Rights and (B) after such record date and prior to the expiration,
redemption or termination of such Rights shall be entitled to receive
upon such exercise, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon such exercise, the same number of such Rights as would a holder
of the number of shares of Common Stock that such Warrants so
exercised would have entitled the holder thereof to purchase in
accordance with the terms and provisions of and applicable to the
Rights if such Warrants were exercised immediately prior to the record
date for such distribution. Common Stock owned by or held for the
account of the Company or any majority owned subsidiary shall not be
deemed outstanding for the purpose of any adjustment required under
this subparagraph (c).]
(d) After each adjustment of the number of shares
purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant pursuant to subparagraph
9B(1)(a), the warrant exercise price shall be adjusted by multiplying
such warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a
fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Shares
purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment, and the denominator of which shall be the number of
Shares so
-7-
purchasable immediately thereafter. [After each adjustment of the
warrant exercise price pursuant to subparagraph 9B(1)(b) or (c), the
total number of Shares or fractional part thereof purchasable upon the
exercise of each Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted to such
number of shares or fractional parts thereof as the aggregate warrant
exercise price of the number of shares or fractional part thereof
purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment will buy at the
adjusted warrant exercise price.]
[(e) For the purpose of any computation under subparagraphs
9B(1)(b) and (c) above, the current market price per Share of Common
Stock at any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily
closing prices for the 30 consecutive business days commencing 45
business days before the day in question. The closing price for each
day shall be (i) if the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading
on the New York Stock Exchange, the last sale price (regular way), or
the average of the closing bid and ask prices (regular way), if no
sale occurred, of Common Stock, in either case as reported on the New
York Stock Exchange Composite Tape or, if the Common Stock is not
listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange, on the
principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is
listed or admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted to trading
on any national securities exchange, on the National Market System of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated
Quotations System ("NASDAQ") or, (ii) if not listed or quoted as
described in (i), the mean between the closing high bid and low asked
quotations of Common Stock reported by NASDAQ, or any similar system
for automated dissemination of quotations of securities prices then in
common use, if so quoted, or (iii) if not quoted as described in
clause (ii), the mean between the high bid and low asked quotations
for Common Stock as reported by the National Quotation Bureau
Incorporated if at least two securities dealers have inserted both bid
and asked quotations for Common Stock on at least 5 of the 10
preceding days. If none of the conditions set forth above is met, the
closing price of Common Stock on any day or the average of such
closing prices for any period shall be the fair market value of Common
Stock as determined by a member firm of the New York Stock Exchange
selected by the Company.]
(f) (A) Nothing contained herein shall be construed to
require an adjustment as a result of the issuance of Common Stock
pursuant to, or the granting or exercise of any rights under, the
Company's [List employee and shareholder plans, if any, that might
otherwise result in adjustments].
(B) In addition, no adjustment in the warrant exercise
price shall be required unless and until the earlier of the
following shall have occurred: (x) such adjustment would require
an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the warrant exercise
price or (y) a period of 3 years shall
-8-
have elapsed from the date of the occurrence of any event
requiring any such adjustment pursuant to subparagraphs
9B(1)(a)[, (b) or (c)] above. All adjustments shall be made to
the nearest one hundredth of a Share and the nearest cent, and
any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph (f) are not
required to be made shall be carried forward cumulatively and
taken into account in any subsequent adjustment which (including
such carry-forward) is required to be made under this
subparagraph (f).
(g) In any case in which this subparagraph 9B(1) shall
require that an adjustment be made retroactively immediately following
a record date, the Company may elect to defer (but only until five
business days following the mailing of the notice described in
subparagraph 9B(5) below) issuing to the holder of any Warrant
exercised after such record date the Shares of the Company issuable
upon such exercise over and above the Shares issuable upon such
exercise only on the basis of the warrant exercise price prior to
adjustment.
(h) The Company may, at its option, at any time until the
expiration date, reduce the then current warrant exercise price to any
amount deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company for
any period not exceeding twenty (20) consecutive days (as evidenced in
a resolution adopted by such Board of Directors), but only upon giving
the notices required by subparagraph 9(B)(5) twenty (20) days prior to
taking such action.
(i) Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, no
adjustment in the warrant exercise price shall be made by reason of
the issuance of Shares, or securities convertible into or exchangeable
for Shares, or securities carrying the right to purchase any of the
foregoing or for any other reason whatsoever.
(j) Irrespective of any of the adjustments in the warrant
exercise price or the number of Shares, Warrant Certificates
theretofore issued may continue to express the same prices and number
of shares as are stated in a similar Warrant Certificate issuable
initially, or at some subsequent time, pursuant to this Agreement and
such number of Shares specified therein shall be deemed to have been
so adjusted.
(2) No fractional Shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the
exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be exercised at one
time by the same holder, the number of full Shares which shall be issuable
upon such exercise shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number
of Shares purchased pursuant to the Warrants so exercised. Instead of any
fractional Share of Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon
exercise of any Warrant, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect
of such fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the last
-9-
sales price (or bid price if there were no sales) per Share of Common
Stock, in either case as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite
Tape on the business day which next precedes the day of exercise or, if the
Common Stock is not then listed or admitted to trading on the New York
Stock Exchange, an amount equal to the same fraction of the market price
per share of Common Stock (as determined in a manner described by the Board
of Directors of the Company) at the close of business on the business day
which next precedes the day of exercise.
(3) In case any of the following shall occur while any Warrants
are outstanding: (a) any reclassification or change of the outstanding
Shares of Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value
to no par value, or from no par value to par value); or (b) any
consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party (other than a
consolidation or a merger in which the Company is the continuing
corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of, or change
in, the outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants); or (c) any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the
property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety;
then the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case
may be, shall make appropriate provision by amendment of this Agreement or
otherwise so that the holders of the Warrants then outstanding shall have
the right at any time thereafter, upon exercise of such Warrants, to
purchase the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance as would be received by a holder of the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrant
immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance. Such provision shall provide for adjustments which
shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this Section 9. The above provisions of this subparagraph
9B(3) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes,
consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.
(4) Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment
decreasing the warrant exercise price so that the warrant exercise price is
below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock, the Company will
take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be
necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully
paid and nonassessable Shares of Common Stock at the warrant exercise price
as so adjusted.
(5) Whenever the warrant exercise price then in effect is
adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall mail to each holder of the
Warrants at such holder's address as it shall appear on the books of the
Company a statement setting forth the adjusted warrant exercise price then
and thereafter effective under the provisions hereof, together with the
facts, in reasonable detail, upon which such adjustment is based.
-10-
(6) In case (i) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any
other distribution) on its Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out
of its current or retained earnings, or (ii) the Company shall authorize
the granting to the holders of its Common Stock of rights to subscribe for
or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any other
rights, or (iii) there is to be any reclassification of the Common Stock of
the Company (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding
shares of Common Stock), or any consolidation or merger to which the
Company is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the
Company is required, or (iv) any distribution is to be made on or in
respect of the Common Stock in connection with the dissolution, liquidation
or winding up of the Company, then the Company shall mail to each holder of
Warrants at such holder's address as it shall appear on the books of the
Company, at least twenty days (or ten days in any case specified in clause
(i) or (ii) above) prior to the applicable record date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (x) the record date for such dividend,
distribution or rights, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of
which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such
dividend, distribution or rights are to be determined, or (y) the date on
which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as
of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be
entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other
property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up. No failure to mail such notice nor
any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect any such
transaction or any adjustment in the warrant exercise price required by
this Section 9.
Section 10. Notice to Warrantholders. Nothing contained in this
Agreement or in any of the Warrants shall be construed as conferring upon the
holders thereof the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as
shareholders in respect of the meetings of shareholders or the election of
directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as
shareholders of the Company.
Section 11. Certain Covenants of the Company.
A. So long as any unexpired Warrants remain outstanding and if
required in order to comply with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"), the Company covenants and agrees that it will file such post-effective
amendments to the registration statement filed pursuant to the Act with respect
to the Warrants (File No. 33-_____) (or such other registration statements or
post-effective amendments or supplements) as may be necessary to permit the
Company to deliver to each person exercising a Warrant a prospectus meeting the
requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act and otherwise complying therewith,
and will deliver such a prospectus to each such person. The Company further
covenants and agrees that it will obtain and keep effective all permits,
consents and approvals of governmental agencies and authorities, and will use
its best efforts to take all action which may be necessary to qualify the Shares
for sale under the securities laws of such of the United States, as may be
necessary to permit the free exercise of the Warrants, and the issuance, sale,
transfer and delivery of the Shares issued upon exercise of the
-11-
Warrants, and to maintain such qualifications during the entire period in which
the Warrants are exercisable.
B. The Company covenants and agrees that it shall take all such
action as may be necessary to ensure that all Shares will at the time of
delivery of certificates for such Shares (subject to payment of the warrant
exercise price) be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and
nonassessable Shares, free from any preemptive rights and taxes, liens, charges
and security interests created by or imposed upon the Company.
C. The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all action
which may be necessary to cause the Shares to be duly listed on the New York
Stock Exchange or any securities exchange on which the other shares of Common
Stock of the Company are listed or on the National Market System of NASDAQ at
the dates of exercise of the Warrants.
Section 12. Disposition of Proceeds, etc.
A. The Warrant Agent shall account promptly to the Company with
respect to Warrants exercised and concurrently pay to the Company all moneys
received by the Warrant Agent for the purchase of Shares through the exercise of
such Warrants.
B. The Warrant Agent shall keep copies of this Agreement available
for inspection by holders of Warrants during normal business hours at its
principal office in the City of __________, __________.
Section 13. Merger or Consolidation or Change of Name of Warrant
Agent. Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or with which
it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Warrant Agent, shall be the
successor to the Warrant Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that
such corporation would be eligible for appointment as a successor Warrant Agent
under the provisions of (S)15 of this Agreement. In case at the time such
successor to the Warrant Agent shall succeed to the agency created by this
Agreement, and if any of the Warrants shall have been countersigned but not
delivered, any such successor to the Warrant Agent may adopt the
countersignature of the original Warrant Agent and deliver such Warrants so
countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Warrants shall not have been
countersigned, any successor to the Warrant Agent may countersign such Warrants
either in the name of the predecessor Warrant Agent or in the name of the
successor Warrant Agent; and in all such cases such Warrant shall have the full
force provided in the Warrants and in this Agreement.
In case at any time the name of the Warrant Agent shall be changed and
at such time any of the Warrants shall have been countersigned but not
delivered, the Warrant Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name
and deliver Warrants so countersigned; and in case
-12-
at that time any of the Warrants shall not have been countersigned, the Warrant
Agent may countersign such Warrants either in its prior name or in its changed
name; and in all such cases such Warrants shall have the full force provided in
the Warrants and in this Agreement.
Section 14. Duties of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent undertakes
the duties and obligations imposed by this Agreement upon the following terms
and conditions, by all of which the Company and the holders of Warrants, by
their acceptance thereof, shall be bound:
A. The statements contained herein and in the Warrants shall be
taken as statements of the Company, and the Warrant Agent assumes no
responsibility for the correctness of any of the same except such as describe
the Warrant Agent or action taken or to be taken by it. The Warrant Agent
assumes no responsibility with respect to the distribution of the Warrants
except as herein otherwise provided.
B. The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the
Company to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or in
the Warrants to be complied with by the Company.
C. The Warrant Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or
powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or
through its attorneys, agents or employees, and the Warrant Agent shall not be
answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any
such attorneys, agents or employees or for any loss to the Company resulting
from such neglect or misconduct, provided reasonable care shall have been
exercised in the selection and continued employment thereof.
D. The Warrant Agent may consult at any time with counsel
satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company), and the Warrant Agent
shall incur no liability or responsibility to the Company or to any holder of
any Warrant in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder
in good faith and in accordance with the opinion or the advice of such counsel.
E. The Warrant Agent shall incur no liability or responsibility to
the Company or to any holder of any Warrant for any action taken in reliance on
any notice, resolution, waiver, consent, order, certificate, or other paper,
document or instrument believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed,
sent or presented by the proper party or parties.
F. The Company agrees to pay to the Warrant Agent agreed upon
compensation for all services rendered by the Warrant Agent in the execution of
this Agreement, to reimburse the Warrant Agent for all expenses, taxes and
governmental charges and other charges of any kind and nature incurred by the
Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement and to indemnify the Warrant
Agent and save it harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments,
costs and reasonable counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant
Agent
-13-
in the execution of this Agreement except as a result of the Warrant Agent's
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
G. The Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to institute any
action, suit or legal proceeding or to take any other action likely to involve
expense unless the Company or one or more registered holders of Warrants shall
furnish the Warrant Agent with reasonable security and indemnity for any costs
and expenses which may be incurred, but this provision shall not affect the
power of the Warrant Agent to take such action as the Warrant Agent may consider
proper, whether with or without any such security or indemnity. All rights of
action under this Agreement or under any of the Warrants may be enforced by the
Warrant Agent without the possession of any of the Warrants or the production
thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such action,
suit or proceeding instituted by the Warrant Agent shall be brought in its name
as Warrant Agent, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit
of the registered holders of the Warrants, as their respective rights or
interests may appear.
H. The Warrant Agent and any shareholder, director, officer or
employee of the Warrant Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Warrants or
other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any
transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend
money to or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Warrant
Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent
from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity.
I. The Warrant Agent shall act hereunder solely as agent and not in
a ministerial capacity, and its duties shall be determined solely by the
provisions hereof. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for anything which it
may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement except for its
own gross negligence or bad faith.
Section 15. Change of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may resign
and be discharged from its duties under this Agreement by giving to the Company
notice in writing, and to the holders of the Warrants notice by publication, of
such resignation, specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect,
which notice shall be published at the expense of the Company at least once a
week for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the City
of New York prior to the date so specified. The Warrant Agent may be removed by
the Company by like notice from the Company to the Warrant Agent and the holders
of Warrants at the expense of the Company. If the Warrant Agent shall resign or
be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company shall
appoint a successor to the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make
such appointment within a period of 30 days after such removal or after it has
been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or
incapacitated Warrant Agent or by the registered holder of a Warrant (who shall,
with such notice, submit his Warrant for inspection by the Company), then, at
the expense of the Company, the Warrant Agent or the registered holder of any
Warrant may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor to the Warrant Agent. Any successor Warrant Agent, whether
appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be a bank or trust company,
in good standing,
-14-
incorporated under the laws of any State or of the United States of America,
having at the time of its appointment as Warrant Agent a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000. After appointment the successor Warrant Agent
shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if
it had been originally named as Warrant Agent without further act or deed; but
the former Warrant Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor Warrant
Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any
further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. Failure to
file or publish any notice provided for in this Section, however, or any defect
therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal
of the Warrant Agent or the appointment of the successor Warrant Agent, as the
case may be.
Section 16. Identity of Transfer Agent. Forthwith upon the
appointment of any Transfer Agent for the Shares or of any subsequent Transfer
Agent for Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase
represented by the Warrants, the Company will file with the Warrant Agent a
statement setting forth the name and address of such Transfer Agent.
Section 17. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Agreement to be
given or made by the Warrant Agent or by the registered holder of any Warrant to
or on the Company shall be sufficiently given or made if sent by first-class
mail, postage prepaid, addressed (until another address is filed in writing by
the Company with the Warrant Agent) as follows:

-15-
Section 18. Supplements and Amendments. The parties hereto may from
time to time supplement or amend this Agreement without the approval of any
holders of Warrants in order to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement
any provision contained herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any
other provision herein, or to make any other provisions in regard to matters or
questions arising hereunder which the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem
necessary or desirable and which will not materially adversely affect the
interest of the registered holders of the Warrants. The parties hereto may also
modify or amend this Agreement and the terms of the Warrants with the consent of
the holders of not less than a majority in number of the then outstanding
unexercised Warrants affected thereby; provided that no such modification or
amendment that accelerates the expiration date, increases the exercise price,
reduces the number of outstanding Warrants the consent of the holders of which
is required for any such modification or amendment, or otherwise materially
adversely affects the rights of the holders of the Warrants, may be made without
the consent of each holder affected thereby.
Section 19. Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this
Agreement by or for the benefit of the Company or the Warrant Agent shall bind
and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns hereunder.
Section 20. Law Governing Contract. This Agreement and each Warrant
issued hereunder shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the
State of _____________ and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of said State.
Section 21. Benefits of This Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed to give to any person or entity other than the Company and
the Warrant Agent and the holders of Warrants any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be for the sole
and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Warrant Agent and the holders of
Warrants.
Section 22. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be
deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute
but one and the same instrument.
[IF THE WARRANTS ARE SUBJECT TO ACCELERATION BY THE COMPANY, INSERT --
Section 23. Acceleration of Warrants by the Company.
A. At any time on or after __________________, the Company shall
have the right to accelerate any or all Warrants at any time by causing them to
expire at the close of business on the day next preceding a specified date (the
"Acceleration Date"), if the Market Price (as hereinafter defined) of the Common
Stock equals or exceeds ______ percent (___%) of the then effective warrant
exercise price, adjusted as if no changes in such warrant exercise price had
been
-16-
made pursuant to subsection 9B, on any 20 Trading Days (as hereinafter defined)
within a period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending no more than five Trading
Days prior to the date on which the Company gives notice to the Warrant Agent of
its election to accelerate the Warrants.
B. "Market Price" for each Trading Day shall be, if the Common Stock
is listed or admitted for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the last
reported sale price, regular way (or, if no such price is reported, the average
of the reported closing bid and asked prices, regular way) of Common Stock, in
either case as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape or, if the
Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock
Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common
Stock is listed or admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted to trading
on any national securities exchange, on the National Market System of NASDAQ or,
if not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or
quoted on the National Market System of NASDAQ, the average of the closing high
bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported by NASDAQ,
or such other system then in use, or if on any such date the Shares of Common
Stock are not quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid
and asked prices as furnished by any New York Stock Exchange firm selected from
time to time by the Company for the purpose. "Trading Day" shall be each Monday
through Friday, other than any day on which securities are not traded in the
system or on the exchange that is the principal market for the Common Stock, as
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.
C. In the event of an acceleration of less than all of the Warrants,
the Warrant Agent shall select the Warrants to be accelerated by lot, pro rata
or in such other manner as it deems, in its discretion, to be fair and
appropriate.
D. Notice of an acceleration specifying the Acceleration Date shall
be sent by mailing first class, postage prepaid, to each registered holder of a
Warrant Certificate representing a Warrant accelerated at such holder's address
appearing on the Warrant register not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days
before the Acceleration Date. Such notice of an acceleration also shall be
given no more than 20 days, and no less than 10 days, prior to the mailing of
notice to registered holders of Warrants pursuant to this Section, by
publication at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of
New York.
E. Any Warrant accelerated may be exercised until the 3:30 p.m., New
York City time, on the business day next preceding the Acceleration Date. The
warrant exercise price shall be payable as provided in Section 5.]
