Whereas,
the Company proposes to sell [if
Warrants are sold with other securities - [title of such other

Securities ”) with] warrant certificates evidencing
one or more warrants (the “ Warrants ”
or, individually, a “ Warrant ”)

Now
Therefore, in
consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS AND
EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF WARRANT
CERTIFICATES
1.1
Issuance of Warrants. [If Warrants alone - Upon issuance,
each Warrant Certificate shall evidence one or more Warrants.] [If
Other Securities and Warrants – Warrant Certificates shall be
[initially] issued in connection with the issuance of the Other
Securities [but shall be separately transferable on and after
(the “ Detachable Date ”)] [and shall not
be separately transferable] and each Warrant Certificate shall
evidence one or more Warrants.] Each Warrant evidenced thereby
shall represent the right, subject to the provisions contained
herein and therein, to purchase one Warrant Security. [If Other
Securities and Warrants - Warrant Certificates shall be initially
issued in units with the Other Securities and each Warrant
Certificate included in such a unit shall evidence
Warrants for each [$
principal amount] [
shares] of Other
Securities included in such unit.]
1.2
Execution And Delivery Of Warrant Certificates. Each Warrant
Certificate, whenever issued, shall be in registered form
substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto,
shall be dated the date of its countersignature by the Warrant
Agent and may have such letters, numbers, or other marks of
identification or designation and such legends or endorsements
printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as the officers of the
Company executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be
conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent
with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to
comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant
thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange
on which the Warrants may be listed, or to conform to usage. The
Warrant Certificates shall be signed on behalf of the Company by
any of its present or future chief executive officers, presidents,
senior vice presidents, vice presidents, chief financial officers,
chief legal officers, treasurers, assistant treasurers,
controllers, assistant controllers, secretaries or assistant
secretaries under its corporate seal reproduced thereon. Such
signatures may be manual or facsimile signatures of such authorized
officers and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the
Warrant Certificates. The seal of the Company may be in the form of
a facsimile thereof and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted or
otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates.
No Warrant Certificate shall be valid for any
purpose, and no Warrant evidenced thereby shall be exercisable,
until such Warrant Certificate has been countersigned by the manual
signature of the Warrant Agent. Such signature by the Warrant Agent
upon any Warrant Certificate executed by the Company shall be
conclusive evidence that the Warrant Certificate so countersigned
has been duly issued hereunder.
In case any officer of the Company who shall
have signed any of the Warrant Certificates either manually or by
facsimile signature shall cease to be such officer before the
Warrant Certificates so signed shall have been countersigned and
delivered by the Warrant Agent, such Warrant Certificates may be
countersigned and delivered notwithstanding that the person who
signed Warrant Certificates ceased to be such officer of the
Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the
Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of
such Warrant Certificate, shall be the proper officers of the
Company, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement
any such person was not such officer.
The term “holder” or “holder
of a Warrant Certificate” as used herein shall mean any
person in whose name at the time any Warrant Certificate shall be
registered upon the books to be maintained by the Warrant Agent for
that purpose [If Other Securities and Warrants are not immediately
detachable—or upon the registration of the Other Securities
prior to the Detachable Date. Prior to the Detachable Date, the
Company will, or will cause the registrar of the Other Securities
to, make available at all times to the Warrant Agent such
information as to holders of the Other Securities as may be
necessary to keep the Warrant Agent’s records up to
date].
1.3
Issuance Of Warrant Certificates. Warrant Certificates
evidencing the right to purchase Warrant Securities may be executed
by the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent upon the
execution of this Warrant Agreement or from time to time
thereafter. The Warrant Agent shall, upon receipt of Warrant
Certificates duly executed on behalf of the Company, countersign
such Warrant Certificates and shall deliver such Warrant
Certificates to or upon the order of the Company.
ARTICLE 2
WARRANT PRICE, DURATION AND
EXERCISE OF WARRANTS
2.1
Warrant Price. During the period specified in
Section 2.2, each Warrant shall, subject to the terms of this
Warrant Agreement and the applicable Warrant Certificate, entitle
the holder thereof to purchase the number of Warrant Securities
specified in the applicable Warrant Certificate at an exercise
price of $
per
Warrant Security, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of
certain events, as hereinafter provided. Such purchase price per
Warrant Security is referred to in this Agreement as the “
Warrant Price .”
2.2
Duration Of Warrants. Each Warrant may be exercised in whole
or in part at any time, as specified herein, on or after [the date
thereof] [
] and at or before [
]
p.m., [
]
time, on
or such later date as the Company may designate by notice to the
Warrant Agent and the holders of Warrant Certificates mailed to
their addresses as set forth in the record books of the Warrant
Agent (the “ Expiration Date ”). Each
Warrant not exercised at or before [
] p.m., [
]
time, on the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights of
the holder of the Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrant under
this Agreement shall cease.
2.3 Exercise
Of Warrants.
(a) During
the period specified in Section 2.2, the Warrants may be
exercised to purchase a whole number of Warrant Securities in
registered form by providing certain information as set forth on
the reverse side of the Warrant Certificate and by paying in full,
in lawful money of the United States of America, [in cash or by
certified check or official bank check in New York Clearing House
funds] [by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds] the
Warrant Price for each Warrant Security with respect to which a
Warrant is being exercised to the Warrant Agent at its corporate
trust office, provided that such exercise is subject to receipt
within five business days of such payment by the Warrant Agent of
the Warrant Certificate with the form of election to purchase
Warrant Securities set forth on the reverse side of the Warrant
Certificate properly completed and duly executed. The date on which
payment in full of the Warrant Price is received by the Warrant
Agent shall, subject to receipt of the Warrant Certificate as
aforesaid, be deemed to be the date on which the Warrant is
exercised; provided, however, that if, at the date of receipt of
such Warrant Certificates and payment in full of the Warrant Price,
the transfer books for the Warrant Securities purchasable upon the
exercise of such Warrants shall be closed, no such receipt of such
Warrant Certificates and no such payment of such Warrant Price
shall be effective to constitute the person so designated to be
named as the holder of record of such Warrant Securities on such
date, but shall be effective to constitute such person as the
holder of record of such Warrant Securities for all purposes at the
opening of business on the next succeeding day on which the
transfer books for the Warrant Securities purchasable upon the
exercise of such Warrants shall be opened, and the certificates for
the Warrant Securities in respect of which such Warrants are then
exercised shall be issuable as of the date on such next succeeding
day on which the transfer books shall next be opened, and until
such date the Company shall be under no duty to deliver any
certificate for such Warrant Securities. The Warrant Agent shall
deposit all funds received by it in payment of the Warrant Price in
an account of the Company maintained with it and shall advise the
Company by telephone at the end of each day on which a payment for
the exercise of Warrants is received of the amount so deposited to
its account. The Warrant Agent shall promptly confirm such
telephone advice to the Company in writing.
(b) The
Warrant Agent shall, from time to time, as promptly as practicable,
advise the Company of (i) the number of Warrant Securities with
respect to which Warrants were exercised, (ii) the instructions of
each holder of the Warrant Certificates evidencing such Warrants
with respect to delivery of the Warrant Securities to which such
holder is entitled upon such exercise, (iii) delivery of Warrant
Certificates evidencing the balance, if any, of the Warrants for
the remaining Warrant Securities after such exercise, and (iv) such
other information as the Company shall reasonably
require.
(c) As
soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant, the Company
shall issue to or upon the order of the holder of the Warrant
Certificate evidencing such Warrant the Warrant Securities to which
such holder is entitled, in fully registered form, registered in
such name or names as may be directed by such holder. If fewer than
all of the Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificate are
exercised, the Company shall execute, and an authorized officer of
the Warrant Agent shall manually countersign and deliver, a new
Warrant Certificate evidencing Warrants for the number of Warrant
Securities remaining unexercised.
(d) The
Company shall not be required to pay any stamp or other tax or
other governmental charge required to be paid in connection with
any transfer involved in the issue of the Warrant Securities, and
in the event that any such transfer is involved, the Company shall
not be required to issue or deliver any Warrant Security until such
tax or other charge shall have been paid or it has been established
to the Company’s satisfaction that no such tax or other
charge is due.
(e) 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 but unissued Warrant Securities, a
number of shares sufficient to provide for the exercise of the
Warrants.
ARTICLE 3
OTHER PROVISIONS RELATING TO
RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF WARRANT
CERTIFICATES
3.1
No Rights As Warrant Securityholder Conferred By Warrants or
Warrant Certificates. No Warrant Certificate or Warrant
evidenced thereby shall entitle the holder thereof to any of the
rights of a holder of Warrant Securities, including, without
limitation, the right to receive the payment of dividends or
distributions, if any, on the Warrant Securities or to exercise any
voting rights, except to the extent expressly set forth in this
Agreement or the applicable Warrant Certificate.
3.2
Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant Certificates.
Upon receipt by the Warrant Agent of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it and the Company of the ownership of and the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate
and/or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Agent and
the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender of the
mutilated Warrant Certificate to the Warrant Agent for
cancellation, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the
Warrant Agent that such Warrant Certificate has been acquired by a
bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute, and an authorized
officer of the Warrant Agent shall manually countersign and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed
or mutilated Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate of the
same tenor and evidencing Warrants for a like number of Warrant
Securities. Upon the issuance of any new Warrant Certificate under
this Section 3.2, the Company may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may
be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including
the fees and expenses of the Warrant Agent) in connection
therewith. Every substitute Warrant Certificate executed and
delivered pursuant to this Section 3.2 in lieu of any lost,
stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificate shall represent an
additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not
the lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificate shall be at any
time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits
of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all
other Warrant Certificates duly executed and delivered hereunder.
The provisions of this Section 3.2 are exclusive and shall
preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with
respect to the replacement of mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed
Warrant Certificates.
3.3
Holder of Warrant Certificate May Enforce Rights.
Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement, any holder
of a Warrant Certificate, without the consent of the Warrant Agent,
the holder of any Warrant Securities or the holder of any other
Warrant Certificate, may, in such holder’s own behalf and for
such holder’s own benefit, enforce, and may institute and
maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company
suitable to enforce, or otherwise in respect of, such
holder’s right to exercise the Warrants evidenced by such
holder’s Warrant Certificate in the manner provided in such
holder’s Warrant Certificate and in this
Agreement.
(a) In
case the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares
of [title of Preferred Stock purchasable through exercise of
Warrants] into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Securities
purchasable under the Warrants shall be proportionately increased.
Conversely, in case the outstanding shares of [title of Preferred
Stock purchasable through exercise of Warrants] of the Company
shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant
Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Securities
purchasable under the Warrants shall be proportionately
decreased.
(b) If
at any time or from time to time the holders of [title of Preferred
Stock purchasable through exercise of Warrants] (or any shares of
stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise
of the Warrants) shall have received or become entitled to receive,
without payment therefore,
(i) [title
of Preferred Stock purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or any
shares of stock or other securities which are at any time directly
or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for [title of
Preferred Stock purchasable through exercise of Warrants], or any
rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire
any of the foregoing by way of dividend or other
distribution;
(ii) any
cash paid or payable otherwise than in accordance with the terms of
[title of Preferred Stock purchasable through exercise of Warrants]
or otherwise than as a cash dividend paid or payable out of the
Company’s current or retained earnings;
(iii) any
evidence of the Company’s indebtedness or rights to subscribe
for or purchase the Company’s indebtedness; or
(iv) [title
of Preferred Stock purchasable through exercise of Warrants] or
additional stock or other securities or property (including cash)
by way of spinoff, split-up, reclassification, combination of
shares or similar corporate rearrangement (other than shares of
[title of Preferred Stock purchasable through exercise of Warrants]
issued as a stock split or adjustments in respect of which shall be
covered by the terms of Section 3.4(a) above), then and in
each such case, the holder of each Warrant shall, upon the exercise
of the Warrant, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number
of Warrant Securities receivable thereupon, and without payment of
any additional consideration therefore, the amount of stock and
other securities and property (including cash and indebtedness or
rights to subscribe for or purchase indebtedness) which such holder
would hold on the date of such exercise had he been the holder of
record of such Warrant Securities as of the date on which holders
of [title of Preferred Stock purchasable through exercise of
Warrants] received or became entitled to receive such shares or all
other additional stock and other securities and
property.
(c) In
case of (i) any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change
in the [title of Preferred Stock purchasable through the exercise
of the Warrants] of the Company (other than as a result of a
subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in
Section 3.4(a) or Section 3.4(b) above), (ii) share
exchange, merger or similar transaction of the Company with or into
another person or entity (other than a share exchange, merger or
similar transaction in which the Company is the acquiring or
surviving corporation and which does not result in any change in
the [title of Preferred Stock purchasable through the exercise of
the Warrants] other than the issuance of additional shares of
[title of Preferred Stock purchasable through the exercise of the
Warrants]) or (iii) the sale, exchange, lease, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and
assets of the Company as an entirety (in any such case, a
“Reorganization Event”), then, as a condition of such
Reorganization Event, lawful provisions shall be made, and duly
executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its
successor shall be delivered to the holders of the Warrants, so
that the holders of the Warrants shall have the right at any time
prior to the expiration of the Warrants to purchase, at a total
price equal to that payable upon the exercise of the Warrants, the
kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable in connection with such Reorganization Event by
a holder of the same number of shares of [title of Preferred Stock
purchasable through the exercise of the Warrants] as were
purchasable by the holders of the Warrants immediately prior to
such Reorganization Event. In any such case appropriate provisions
shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the
holders of the Warrants so that the provisions hereof shall
thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or
other securities and property deliverable upon exercise the
Warrants, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Warrant
Price payable hereunder provided the aggregate purchase price shall
remain the same. In the case of any transaction described in
clauses (ii) and (iii) above, the Company shall thereupon be
relieved of any further obligation hereunder or under the Warrants,
and the Company as the predecessor corporation may thereupon or at
any time thereafter be dissolved, wound up or liquidated. Such
successor or assuming entity thereupon may cause to be signed, and
may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company, any
or all of the Warrants issuable hereunder which heretofore shall
not have been signed by the Company, and may execute and deliver
securities in its own name, in fulfillment of its obligations to
deliver Warrant Securities upon exercise of the Warrants. All the
Warrants so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank
and benefit under this Agreement as the Warrants theretofore or
thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as
though all of such Warrants had been issued at the date of the
execution hereof. In any case of any such Reorganization Event,
such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be
made in the Warrants thereafter to be issued as may be
appropriate.
(d) The
Company may, at its option, at any time until the Expiration Date,
reduce the then current Warrant Price to any amount deemed
appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company for any period
not exceeding twenty consecutive days (as evidenced in a resolution
adopted by such Board of Directors), but only upon giving the
notices required by Section 3.5 at least ten days prior to
taking such action.
(e) Except
as herein otherwise expressly provided, no adjustment in the
Warrant Price shall be made by reason of the issuance of any
securities of the Company or for any other reason
whatsoever.
(f) No
fractional Warrant Securities 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 Warrant Securities which
shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be computed on the basis
of the aggregate number of Warrant Securities purchased pursuant to
the Warrants so exercised. Instead of any fractional Warrant
Security 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 sales
price (or bid price if there were no sales) per Warrant Security,
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 Warrant Securities are not then listed or admitted to
trading on the New York Stock Exchange, on the principal national
securities exchange on which the Warrant Securities are listed or
admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted to trading on any
national securities exchange, the average of the closing high bid
and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported by
The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“ NASDAQ
”) or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(“ FINRA ”), as applicable, or such other
system then in use, or if on any such date the Warrant Securities
are not quoted by any such organization, an amount equal to the
same f
