March 31, 2004
NUR MACROPRINTERS LTD., an Israeli company with its principal offices at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the "Company"), hereby grants to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (the "Holder"), the right to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, up to thirty thousand seven hundred fifty-eight (30,758) of the Company's Ordinary Shares, par value NIS 1.00 per share ("Ordinary Shares"), exercisable at any time from time to time, on or after the date hereof (the "Effective Date"), and until the fifth anniversary of such date (the "Expiration Date").
Hereinafter: (i) the Ordinary Shares purchasable hereunder or any other securities which may be issued by the Company in substitution therefor, are referred to as the "Warrant Shares"; (ii) the price of sixty two cents ($0.62) payable hereunder for each of the Warrant Shares, as adjusted in the manner set forth hereinafter, is referred to as the "Exercise Price" and (iii) this Warrant and all warrants hereafter issued in exchange or substitution for this Warrant are referred to as the "Warrants". The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares are subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.
1. Warrant Period; Exercise of Warrant
| 1.1. (a) | This
Warrant may be exercised in whole at any time, or in part from time to
time, beginning on the date hereof
until the Expiration Date (the "Warrant Period"),
by the surrender of this Warrant (with a duly executed exercise form
in the form attached at the end hereof as Exhibit
A), along with the Exercise Certificate
or the Exercise Opinion (each as defined in Section 1.1(b) below), at the
principal office of the Company, set forth above, together with proper
payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares
for which the Warrant is being exercised. Payment for Warrant Shares shall
be made by certified or official bank check or checks, payable to the order
of the Company or by wire transfer to an account to be designated in writing
by the Company. Payments shall be made in United States dollars. |
| (b) |
In addition to the
method of exercise set forth in Section 1.1(a) hereof, each Holder shall
have the right to exercise the Warrant in whole or in part and, upon
such exercise, to receive for each Warrant surrendered a fraction of
one Ordinary Share as shall be determined by the formula set forth below,
with no cash payment required other than a payment of Equivalent Par
Value (as defined below) for each Ordinary Share issued upon the exercise
of the
Warrant in accordance with this Section 1.1(b). The number of Ordinary Shares
the Holder shall be entitled to receive shall upon the exercise of the
Warrant and surrender of the related warrant certificate in accordance
with this Section 1.1(b) shall be equal to the product of (x) the total
number of Ordinary Shares exchangeable for the Warrants being exercised
(assuming exercise in accordance with Section 1.1(a)) multiplied by
(y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate Market
Price (as defined below) of such Ordinary Shares plus Equivalent Par Value
less the aggregate Exercise Price therefore, and the denominator of
which is such aggregate Market Price. Upon exercise of the Warrants
pursuant to this Section 1.1(b), the warrants so exercised shall no
longer be exercisable. Solely for the purpose of this paragraph, "Equivalent Par Value" shall
be an amount in U.S. Dollars equal to NIS 1.0 based on the Representative
Rate of the U.S. Dollar as published by the Bank of Israel on the date
of payment. Solely for the purposes of this paragraph, Market Price
shall be calculated as the average of the five trading days immediately
preceding the date on
which the form of exercise attached (Exhibit A) is deemed to have been sent
to the Company. For the purposes of this paragraph, "Market Price" shall
be deemed to be the last reported sale price of the Ordinary Shares,
or if no such reported sale takes place on such day, the average of
the last reported sale prices for the last three (3) trading days. |
| (c) |
The Holder of a Warrant, by its acceptance thereof, covenants and agrees that the Warrants described herein are being acquired as an investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof and such Holder
further covenants |
and agrees that
it will not sell, transfer, pledge, assign, or hypothecate the Warrant
or the ordinary shares issueable upon exercise of the Warrant unless
there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act
of 1933 covering the Warrant or the ordinary shares issueable upon
exercise of the Warrant, or the Holder of the Warrant and/or the ordinary
shares receives an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company stating
that such sale, transfer, pledge, assignment, or hypothecation is exempt
from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933 and the qualification requirements under applicable law.
|
|
| 1.2. | If this Warrant should be exercised
in part, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation,
execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder
to purchase the remainder of the Ordinary Shares purchasable hereunder.
The Company shall pay any and all expenses, taxes and other charges that
may be payable in connection with the issuance of the Warrant Shares
and the preparation and delivery of share certificates pursuant to this
Section 1 in the name of the Holder (including without limitation the
applicable stamp duty), and to the extent required, the execution and
delivery of a new Warrant, provided, however, that the Company shall
only be required to pay taxes which are due as a direct result of the
issuance of the Ordinary Shares or other securities, properties or rights
underlying such Warrants (such as the applicable stamp duty), and will
not be required to pay any tax which may be (i) due as a result of the
specific identity of the Holder or (ii) payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificates in a name
other than that of the Holder and the Company shall not be required to
issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons
requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount
of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company
that such tax has been paid. |
| 1.3. | No fractions of Ordinary Shares shall be issued in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, and the number of Ordinary Shares issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Upon the issuance of Ordinary Shares resulting from the exercise in whole or in part of this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to the Holder an irrevocable letter of instructions to the Company's transfer agent to issue as soon as is reasonably practicable to the Holder share certificates reflecting the Warrant Shares exercised thereby, together with any and all other documents required for the issuance of such certificates by the transfer agent. |
| 2. | Reservation of Shares |
The Company covenants that: (i) at all times during
the Warrant Period it shall have in reserve, and will keep available solely
for issuance or delivery upon exercise of the Warrant, such number of Ordinary
shares as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof, and (ii) upon exercise
of the Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price therefor, the Warrant
Shares issuable upon such exercise will be validly issued, fully paid,
non |
assessable, free and clear from any lien, encumbrance, pledge or any other third party right and not subject to any preemptive rights. |
3. Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Securities
| 3.1. | Subdivision and Combination. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide or combine the outstanding Ordinary Shares, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be proportionately decreased in the case of subdivision or increased in the case of combination. |
| 3.2. | Stock Dividends and Distributions. In case the Company shall pay a dividend on, or make a distribution of, Ordinary Shares or the Company's capital stock convertible into Ordinary Shares, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be proportionately decreased. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be made as of the record date for the subject stock dividend or distribution. |
| 3.3. | Adjustment in Number of Securities. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3, the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted to the nearest full amount by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price. |
| 3.4. | Definition of Ordinary Shares. For the purpose of this Warrant, the term "Ordinary Shares" shall mean (i) the class of stock designated as Ordinary Shares in the Articles of Association of the Company as may be amended as of the date hereof, or (ii) any other class of stock resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of such Ordinary Shares consisting solely of changes in nominal value, or from nominal value to no nominal value, or from no nominal value to nominal value. |
| 3.5. | No Adjustment of Exercise Price in Certain Cases. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made if the amount of said adjustment shall be less than 2 cents ($.02) per Ordinary Share, provided, however, that in such case any adjustment that would otherwise be required then to be made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustment so carried forward, shall amount to at least 2 cents ($.02) per Ordinary Share. |
| 3.6. | Merger or Consolidation. In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, (other than a merger which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Ordinary Shares), the Company shall cause the corporation formed by such consolidation or merger to execute and deliver to the Holder a supplemental warrant agreement providing that the Holder of the Warrant then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right thereafter (until the expiration of such Warrant) to receive, upon exercise of such Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other |
| securities and property receivable upon
such consilidation or merger, by a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares
of the Company for which such Warrant might have been exercised immediately
prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. Such supplemental
warrant agreement shall provide for adjustments which shall be identical
to the adjustments provided in Section 3. The above provision of this Subsection
shall similarly apply to successive consolidations or
mergers. |
||
4. |
Notices to Warrant Holders. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a
stockholder in respect of any meetings of stockholders for the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, any of the following
events shall occur: |

(a) |
the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Ordinary Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution

be proposed; |

the Company shall give to the Holder written notice of such event at least
fifteen (15) days prior to the date fixed as a record date or the date
of closing the transfer books for the determination of the stockholders
entitled to such dividend, distribution, convertible or exchangeable securities
or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such proposed dissolution,
liquidation, winding up or sale. |
||
| 5. |
Non-Transferability |
|
| (a) |
The Holder
covenants and agrees that the Warrants are being acquired as an investment
and not with a view to the distribution thereof. The Holder shall not
sell, transfer, assign, encumber, pledge or otherwise dispose or undertake
to dispose of ("Sell")
the Warrants until the first anniversary of the Effective Date. Thereafter,
the Holder may, subject to applicable securities laws, Sell, all or
any portion of the Warrants, provided that the Holder may only Sell
the Warrants on two occasions, to no more than five (5) transferees
on each occasion, provided further that on the second such occasion
the Holder shall reimburse the Company |
|
| with any and all direct costs incurred by the Company connected with such sale, transfer or assignment including any reasonable registration costs. | ||
| (b) |

shall be subject to a stop transfer order and the certificate or certificates
evidencing such Warrant Shares shall bear legend substantially similar
to
the following:

BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OF 1933, AS AMENDED, PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT. ACCORDINGLY,
SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION

RECITALS:
WHEREAS |
the Company and Rockwood,
Inc. (the "Placement Agent")
entered on _________, 2003 into a letter agreement (the "Letter
Agreement") pursuant to which the Placement
Agent rendered to the Company certain financial services in connection
with the Convertible Loan secured by the Company on October 2003 (the "Convertible
Loan"); |
| WHEREAS | the Letter Agreement provides, among others, that upon conversion of the Convertible Loan or a portion thereof, the Company will grant the Placement Agent warrants (the "Warrants") exercisable into Ordinary Shares of the Company, of nominal value NIS 1.00 each (the "Conversion Shares"); and |
| WHEREAS | the Letter Agreement further provides that the Conversion Shares shall have piggyback registration rights; and |
| WHEREAS | the Placement Agent assigned its rights for the Warrants to the Holders; and |
| WHEREAS | the Company hereby undertakes to register the Conversion Shares under the terms and subject to the condition set forth in this Agreement. |
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the parties agree as follows:
| 1. | Definitions. |
Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms
shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Warrants. As used herein,
the following terms have the following meanings: |
|
| "Commission" refers
to the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
|
| "Effective Date" means
the date of the closing of the Convertible Loan. |
|
"Register", "registered",
and "registration" refer
to a registration effected by filing a registration statement in compliance
with the Securities Act and the declaration or ordering by the Commission
of effectiveness of such registration statement, or the equivalent
actions under the laws of another
jurisdiction.

|
"Securities
Act" shall mean the U.S. Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or any similar federal statute, and the
rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, all as the same

|
| 2. |
Incidental Registration. |
|
If the Company at any time following the
Effective Date, proposes to register any of its securities, (other than
a registration statement on Form S-8 or any successor form for securities
to be offered to employees of the Company pursuant to any employee benefit
plan or a registration statement on form F-4 or any other successor form),
for its own account or for the account of any other person, it shall give
notice to the Holders of such intention. Upon the written request of Holders,
given within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such notice, the Company
shall include in such registration all of the Registrable Shares indicated
in such request, so as to permit the disposition of the shares so registered
in the manner requested by the Holders. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Section 2, with respect to an underwritten public offering by
the Company, if the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing
that marketing or other factors require a limitation of the number of
shares to be underwritten, then there shall be excluded from such registration
and underwriting to the extent necessary to satisfy such limitation, shares
held by the Holders and by other shareholders of the Company who are entitled
to have their shares included in such registration, pro rata among them

Shares are excluded from such underwriting, the Holders shall agree not
to sell their Registrable Shares included in the registration statement
for such period, not to exceed 180 days, as may be required by the managing
underwriter, and the Company shall keep effective and current such registration
statement for such period as may be required to enable the Holders to
complete the distribution and resale of their Registrable Shares. Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 2, the Company shall have the right at
any time after it shall have given notice to the Holders, to elect not
to file any such proposed registration statement; provided, however, that
each key officer and director of the Company and each person who, at the
time of the proposed filing of such public offering, beneficially owns
1% or more of the outstanding capital stock of the Company, on a fully-converted,
fully-diluted basis, shall enter into the same agreement. |
||
| 3. |
Termination of Registration Rights. |
|
| 3.1. |
The Holders shall not be entitled to
exercise any right provided for in Section 2 hereof, after four (4) years
following the Effective Date. |
|
| 3.2. |
In
addition, the right of the Holders to request registration pursuant
to Section 2 shall terminate upon such date that all Registrable Shares
held or entitled to be held upon exercise by the Holders may be sold
under Rule
144(k) (or any successor rule). |
| 4. |
Designation of Underwriter. |
| The Company
shall have the right to designate the managing underwriter. |
|
| 5. |

| 6.1. |
The Company will indemnify and
hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder,
any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder,
and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such underwriter
(collectively and individually referred to as the "Indemnified
Party"), from and against any and all
losses, damages, claims, liabilities, joint or several, costs, and
expenses (including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with
the Company’s consent, which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld) to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under
applicable law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, damages, claims,
liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), costs,
or expenses arise out of are based upon (i) any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration
statement or included in the prospectus, as amended or supplemented
(including, in each case, all documents incorporated by reference therein,
as such documents may have been updated by later dated documents),
or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not
misleading or
(iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities
Act or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), or any rules or regulations promulgated
thereunder, and the Company will reimburse each Indemnified Party,
promptly upon demand, for any reasonable legal or any other expenses
incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing to defend,
or defending against, or appearing as a third-party witness in connection
with such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, or proceeding; provided, however, that
the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that
any such loss, damage, liability, cost, or expense arises solely out
of or is based solely upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement,
or omission or alleged omission, so made in conformity with
|
| information furnished to the Company by the Indemnified Party, in writing, specifically for inclusion therein; provided, further, that this indemnity shall not be deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence obligations; and provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the Company’s consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and regardless of any sale in connection with such offering by such Holder. Such indemnity shall survive the transfer of securities by a Holder. | ||
| 6.2. |
Each Holder participating in a
registration hereunder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company
its Executive Officers, Directors, any underwriter for the Company,
and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such underwriter
(collectively and individually, the "Indemnifiable
Parties"), from and against any and all
losses, damages, claims, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including
any amount paid in
any settlement effected with such Holder’s consent, which consent will not
be unreasonably withheld) to any Indemnifiable Party may become subject under
applicable law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, damages, claims, liabilities
(or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), costs, or expense arise out of
or are based on (i) any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement
or included in the prospectus, as amended or supplemented (including,
in each case, all documents incorporated by reference therein, as such documents
may have been updated by later dated documents), or (ii) the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are
made, not
misleading,
|
| shall not be deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence obligations; provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim loss, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that the maximum amount of liability in respect of such indemnification shall be limited, in the case of each Holder, to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Shares sold pursuant to such registration. | ||
| 6.3. |
Promptly after receipt by an
Indemnified and/or Indemnifiable Party pursuant to the provisions of
Section 6.1 or 6.2 of notice of the commencement of any action involving
the subject matter of the foregoing indemnity provisions, such Indemnified
and/or Indemnifiable Party will, if a claim thereof is to be made against
the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions of said Section 6.1
or 6.2, promptly notify the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission to notify the indemnifying party shall only
relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified
and/or Indemnifiable Party to the extent that such indemnifying party
has been damaged by such omission
to notify
hereunder. In case such action is brought against any Indemnified and/or Indemnifiable party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any action include both the Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party and the indemnifying party and if in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified or Indemnifiable party there are separate defenses that are available to the Indemnified or Indemnifiable party or there is a conflict of interest which would prevent counsel for the indemnifying party from also representing the Indemnified or Indemnifiable party, the Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party(ies) shall have the right to select, at the expense of the indemnifying party, separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action; provided, further, however, that if the Holders are the Indemnified Party, the Holders shall be entitled to one (1) separate counsel at the expense of the Company and if underwriters are also Indemnified parties who are entitled to counsel separate from the indemnifying party, then all underwriters as a group shall be entitled to one (1) separate counsel at the expense of the Company. After notice from the indemnifying party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party pursuant to the provisions of said Section 6.1 or 6.2 above for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party shall have employed counsel in accordance with the provision of the preceding sentence, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party to represent the |
| same within a reasonable
time after the notice of the commencement of the action and within
fifteen (15)
days after written notice of the Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party’s
intention to employ separate counsel pursuant to the previous sentence,
(iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel
for the Indemnified or Indemnifiable Party at the expense of the indemnifying
party, or (iv) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment
of counsel but such party or counsel fails to vigorously defend the
action.
No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement, which does not include as an unconditional term
thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified
or Indemnifiable Party of a release from all liability in respect to
such
claim or litigation. |
||
| 6.4. |
If recovery is not available
under the foregoing indemnification provisions, for any reason other
than as specified therein, the parties entitled to indemnification
by the terms thereof shall be entitled to contribution to liabilities
and expenses. In determining the amount of contribution to which the
respective parties are entitled, there shall be considered the parties’ relative
knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect
to which the right to indemnification was asserted, the opportunity
to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and any other equitable
consideration appropriate under the circumstances. In no event shall
any party that is found liable for fraudulent misrepresentation within
the meaning of Section 1(f) of the Securities Act be entitled to contribution
hereunder from any party not found so liable.
|

Company. Whenever

as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, and, upon the request
of the Holders of the majority of the Registrable Shares registered
