THIS
SERIES COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (this Warrant) certifies that, for value received,
or its assigns (the Holder) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the
limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after
(the Initial Exercise Date) and on or prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City
(the Termination Date) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and
purchase from ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), up to
shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the Warrant Shares) of Common
Stock. The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the
Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the
Purchase Agreement), dated , among the Company and the purchasers
signatory thereto.
Section 2. Exercise.
a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant
may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on
or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the
Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the
Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice of
Exercise Form annexed hereto. Within three (3) Trading Days following the date of exercise as
aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the
applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer of immediately available funds or, pursuant to the
cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below, if such cashless exercise procedure is
available and is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company
until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available
hereunder and this Warrant has
been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for
cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to
the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total
number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding
number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of
Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of
Warrant Shares
1
purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any
Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) Business Day after receipt of such notice. In the event of
any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the
absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge
and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion
of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at
any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this
Warrant shall be $ , subject to adjustment hereunder (the Exercise Price).
c) Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective
registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the
issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder and all of the Warrant Shares are not then registered
for resale by Holder into the market at market prices from time to time on an effective
registration statement for use on a continuous basis (or the prospectus contained therein is not
available for use), then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by
means of a cashless exercise in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive that number of
Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) | = | the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a cashless exercise, as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise; | |
(B) | = | the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and | |
(X) | = | the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise. |
VWAP means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses
that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily
volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on
the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P.
(based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time), (b)
if the OTC Bulletin Board is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common
Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the OTC Bulletin Board, (c) if the Common
Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and if prices for the
Common Stock are then reported in the Pink Sheets published by Pink OTC Markets, Inc. (or a
similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent
bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market
value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith
by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably
acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
2
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall
be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c).
d) Mechanics of Exercise.
i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall
be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holders prime
broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system
(DWAC) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an
effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder or (B)
this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise, and otherwise by physical delivery to the
address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise, in each case by the date that is three
(3) Trading Days after the latest of (A) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and
receipt of the DWAC request from the Holders prime broker (if applicable), (B) surrender of this
Warrant (if required) and (C) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above (including
by cashless exercise, if permitted) (such date, the Warrant Share Delivery Date). The
Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other person so
designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for
all purposes, as of the date this Warrant has been properly exercised, with payment to the Company
of the Exercise Price (or by cashless exercise, if permitted) and all taxes required to be paid by
the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(d)(vi) prior to the issuance of such shares, having been
paid.
ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised
in part, the Company shall, at the request of the Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant
certificate, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant
Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the
unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other
respects be identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit
either to the Holders prime broker the Warrant Shares or to the Holder a certificate or the
certificates representing the Warrant Shares, as applicable pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) hereof, by
the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then, the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Shares Upon Exercise. In
addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to instruct the Transfer
Agent to transmit to the Holders prime broker the Warrant Shares, or to the Holder a certificate
or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares, pursuant to an exercise on or before the
Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to
purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holders brokerage firm otherwise
purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant
Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a Buy-In), then the
Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holders total
purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so
purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares
3
that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at
issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was
executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate
the portion of this Warrant and
equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such
exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock
that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery
obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase
price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock
with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A)
of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The
Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in
respect of the Buy-In and evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a
Holders right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with
respect to the Companys failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
v. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share
which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at
its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to
such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
vi. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be
made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in
respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the
Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names
as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates
for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when
surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed
by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient
to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
vii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in
any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
e) Holders Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this
Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to
Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as
set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holders Affiliates,
and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holders
Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined
below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such
4
determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which
would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant
beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the
unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without
limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise
analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its
Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e),
beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the
Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in
accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies,
the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by
the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall
be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed
to be the Holders determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other
securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant
is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall
have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a
determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For
purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the
Companys most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B)
a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company
or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the
written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and
in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the
conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its
Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was
reported. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall be 4.9% of the number of shares of
the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days prior notice
to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this
Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the
number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this
Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until
the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. T
he provisions of this
paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with
the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be
defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to
make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to
5
properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall
apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
Section 3. Certain Adjustments.
a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares
of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities that is payable in shares
of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued
by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split)
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by
reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in
each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before
such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain
unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately
after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a
subdivision, combination or re-classification.
b) [RESERVED]
c)
Subsequent Rights Offerings. If the Company, at any time while
this Warrant is
outstanding, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the
Holder) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share
less than the VWAP on the record date mentioned below, then, the Exercise Price shall be multiplied
by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock
outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights, options or warrants plus the number of
additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator
shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such
rights, options or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the
total number of shares so offered (assuming receipt by the Company in full of all consideration
payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such VWAP. Such
adjustment shall be made whenever such rights, options or warrants are issued, and shall become
effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such rights, options or warrants.
d) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of
its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock (which shall be subject to Section 3(a)),
then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP
6
determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such
VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the
portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding
share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In each case the
adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or
evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of
Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall
become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.
e) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the
Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or
consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly,
effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or
substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or
indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person)
is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange
their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or
more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more
related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common
Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted
into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, (v) the Company, directly or indirectly,
in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other
business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off
or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or
group of Persons acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including
any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or
associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase
agreement or other business combination) (each a Fundamental Transaction) then, upon any
subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant
Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such
Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section
2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or
acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional
consideration (the Alternate Consideration) receivable as a result of such Fundamental
Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in
Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination
of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration
based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in
such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the
Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different
components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to
the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall
be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this
Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the
event of a Fundamental Transaction that is (1) an all cash transaction, (2) a
7
Rule 13e-3 transaction as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act, or (3) a Fundamental
Transaction involving a person or entity not traded on a national securities exchange, including,
but not limited to, the NYSE Amex, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, or
the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the
Holders option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the
consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the
Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of
this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction. Black Scholes
Value means the value of this Warrant based on the Black and Scholes Option Pricing Model
obtained from the OV function on Bloomberg, L.P. (Bloomberg) determined as of the day
of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a
risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time
between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the
Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day
volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg as of the Trading Day immediately following
the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per
share used in such calculation shall be the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if
any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental
Transaction and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public
announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date. The Company shall
cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor
(the Successor Entity) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under
this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section
3(e) pursuant to written agreements and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder
in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument
substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a
corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity)
equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant
(without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental
Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares
of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant
to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of
shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic
value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and
which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any
such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so
that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and
the other Transaction Documents referring to the Company shall refer instead to the Successor
Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the
obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same
effect as if such Successor Ent
ity had been named as the Company herein.
f) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest
cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the
number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date
8
shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
issued and outstanding.
g) Notice to Holder.
i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to
any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting
forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts
requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend
(or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a
special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall
authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any
stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common
Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common
Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the
voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company,
then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it
shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the
applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a
record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or
warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock
of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be
determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected
that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common
Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation,
merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such notice or any
defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action
required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder
constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the
Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a
Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the
period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such
notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.
a) Transferability. This Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole
or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated
agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto
duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes
payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if
9
required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the
name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations
specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant
evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be
cancelled. This Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new
holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon
presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice
specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder
or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be
involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for this Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such
notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial issuance date of
this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares
issuable pursuant thereto.
c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be
maintained by the Company for that purpose (the Warrant Register), in the name of the
record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of
this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any
distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder
to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the
exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i).
b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon
receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of
loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon
surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will
make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of
any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day,
then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.
d) Authorized Shares.
The
Company covenants that, during the period this Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from
its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance
of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall
10
constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable
action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein
without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market
upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may
be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise
of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in
accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from
all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than
taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any
action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities
or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the
terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such
terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the
rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the
amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii)
take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and
(iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents
from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the
Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares
for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such
authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public
regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
e) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the
Purchase Agreement.
f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the
exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state
and federal securities laws unless the Holder utilizes the cashless exercise provisions hereof.
g) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise
any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise
prejudice the Holders rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of this
Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly
11
fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to
the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any
costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees, including those of
appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in
otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
h) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given
or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice
provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative
action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein
of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the
purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is
asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted
by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under
this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any
loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to
waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law
would be adequate.
k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and
the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.
The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time
of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
l) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived
with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.
m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of
such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference
only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
