APOLLO GOLD CORP.
Common Stock Purchase
Warrant
(Void after five years)
Apollo Gold
Corp., a ________corporation (the “Company”), for value
received, hereby certifies that Shoreline Pacific, LLC, or its
registered assigns (the “Registered Holder”), is
entitled, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, to
purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time
commencing six months after the date of issuance and on or before
5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on January __, 20__, __________
shares of Common Stock, of the Company, at a purchase price of
$_________ per share. The shares purchasable upon exercise of this
Warrant, and the purchase price per share, each as adjusted from
time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, are
hereinafter referred to as the “Warrant Shares” and the
“Purchase Price,” respectively.
(a) This Warrant may be exercised by the
Registered Holder, in whole or in part, by surrendering this
Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit I
duly executed by the Registered Holder or by the Registered
Holder’s duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of
the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may
designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful money of the
United States, of the Purchase Price payable in respect of the
number of Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise.
(b) The Registered Holder may, at its option,
elect to pay some or all of the Purchase Price payable upon an
exercise of this Warrant by canceling all or a portion of this
Warrant. If the Registered Holder wishes to exercise this Warrant
by this method, the number of Warrant Shares purchaseable (which
shall in no event exceed the total number of Warrant Shares
purchasable under this Warrant as set forth above), subject to
adjustment under Section 2 of this Warrant) shall be determined as
follows:
X= the number
of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y= the number
of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being
exercised.
A= the Fair
Market Value of one share of Common Stock.
B= the Purchase
Price of one share of Common Stock.
The Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock
shall be determined as follows:
(i) If the Common Stock is listed on a national
securities exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market or another nationally
recognized trading system (including, without limitation, the OTC
Bulletin Board or any successor and, if the average daily trading
volume for the preceding 10 days has been at least 100,000 shares,
the Pink Sheets) as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per
share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the high
and low reported sale prices per share of Common Stock thereon on
the three trading days immediately preceding the Exercise Date
(provided that if no such price is reported on such day, the Fair
Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined pursuant
to clause (ii)).
(ii) If the Common Stock is not listed on a
national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market or another
nationally recognized trading system as of the Exercise Date, the
Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be
the amount most recently determined by the Board of Directors to
represent the fair market value per share of the Common Stock
(including without limitation a determination for purposes of
granting Common Stock options or issuing Common Stock under an
employee benefit plan of the Company); and, upon request of the
Registered Holder, the Board of Directors (or a representative
thereof) shall promptly notify the Registered Holder of the Fair
Market Value per share of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Board of Directors has not made such a
determination within the three-month period prior to the Exercise
Date, then (A) the Board of Directors shall make a
determination of the Fair Market Value per share of the Common
Stock within 15 days of a request by the Registered Holder that it
do so, and (B) the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this
subsection 1(b) shall be delayed until such determination is
made.
(c) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of
business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered to the Company as provided in subsection 1(a) above
accompanied by payment in full of the Purchase Price (the
“Exercise Date”). At such time, the person or persons
in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Shares shall be
issuable upon such exercise as provided in subsection 1(d) below
shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of
the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.
(d) As soon as reasonably practicable after the
exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, the Company, at its
expense, will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to,
the Registered Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such
Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
(i) a certificate or certificates for the number
of full Warrant Shares to which the Registered Holder shall be
entitled upon such exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share
to which the Registered Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash in
an amount determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof; and
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a
new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor,
calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the
number of remaining Warrant Shares.
(a) Adjustment for Stock Splits and
Combinations . If the Company shall at any time or from time to
time after the date on which this Warrant was first issued (the
“Original Issue Date”) effect a subdivision of the
outstanding Common Stock, the Purchase Price then in effect
immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately
decreased. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time
after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of
Common Stock, the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before
the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment
under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of
business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes
effective.
(b) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and
Distributions . In the event the Company at any time, or from
time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or
fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in
additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the
Purchase Price then in effect immediately before such event shall
be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such
a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on
such record date, by multiplying the Purchase Price then in effect
by a fraction:
|
|
(1)
|
the numerator
of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or
the close of business on such record date, and
|
|
|
(2)
|
the denominator
of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or
the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or
distribution;
|
provided,
however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such
dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully
made on the date fixed therefor, the Purchase Price shall be
recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record
date and thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant
to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such
dividends or distributions.
(c) Adjustment in Number of Warrant
Shares . When any adjustment is required to be made in the
Purchase Price pursuant to subsections 2(a) or 2(b), the
number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing
(i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment,
multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment, by (ii) the Purchase Price in effect
immediately after such adjustment.
(d) Adjustments for Other Dividends and
Distributions . In the event the Company at any time or from
time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or
fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in
securities of the Company (other than shares of Common Stock) or in
cash or other property (other than cash out of earnings or earned
surplus, determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles), then and in each such event provision shall
be made so that the Registered Holder shall receive upon exercise
hereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable hereunder, the kind and amount of securities of the
Company and/or cash and other property which the Registered Holder
would have been entitled to receive had this Warrant been exercised
into Common Stock on the date of such event and had the Registered
Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to
and including the Exercise Date, retained any such securities
receivable, giving application to all adjustments called for during
such period under this Section 2 with respect to the rights of the
Registered Holder.
(e) Adjustment for Mergers or
Reorganizations, etc . If there shall occur any reorganization,
recapitalization, consolidation or merger involving the Company in
which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for
securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction
covered by subsections 2(a), 2(b) or 2(d)), then, following
any such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation or merger,
the Registered Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof the kind
and amount of securities, cash or other property which the
Registered Holder would have been entitled to receive if,
immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization,
consolidation or merger, the Registered Holder had held the number
of shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, in the event the value of the stock,
securities or other assets or property (determined in good faith by
the Board of Directors of the Company) issuable or payable with
respect to one share of the Common Stock in connection with
such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation or merger
is in excess of the Purchase Price in effect at the time of such
reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation or merger and
securities received in such reorganization, recapitalization,
consolidation or merger, if any, are publicly traded, then this
Warrant shall expire unless exercised prior to such reorganization,
recapitalization, consolidation or merger. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company) shall be made in the application of the
provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and
interests thereafter of the Registered Holder, to the end that the
provisions set forth in this Section 2 (including provisions
with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Purchase
Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may
be, in relation to any securities, cash or other property
thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this
Warrant.
(e) Certificate as to Adjustments . Upon
the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the
Purchase
