This Warrant is issued to Benaroya

“ Company ”), for good and valuable
consideration, in connection with Holder’s loan to the
Company in the amount of $4,000,000 pursuant to the terms of that
certain Secured Promissory Note (the “ Note
”) of even date herewith. The number and class of shares of
the Company’s capital stock for which this Warrant is to be
exercisable, and the exercise price, is as set forth
herein.
1. Exercisability
. This Warrant shall
first become exercisable on the earliest to occur of the
following:
(a) immediately prior to the
completion of the Company’s first underwritten public
offering of common stock;
(b) immediately prior to a Change of
Control Event (as defined in Section 4(c) hereof);
or
(c) one year from the Date of
Issuance.
2. Right to Purchase
Shares . Subject to
the terms and conditions set forth herein, the holder of this
Warrant or its registered assigns (the “ Registered
Holder ”) is entitled to purchase from the Company,
at any time following the date upon which it first becomes
exercisable pursuant to Section 1 above and on or before the
Expiration Date (as defined in Section 8 below), 99,291 shares
of common stock of the Company (the “ Warrant
Stock ”) at an exercise price per share of $0.33 (the
“ Exercise Price ”).
3.
Exercise.
(a) Manner of Exercise
. 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 A duly executed by such
Registered Holder or by such 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 of the
Exercise Price payable in respect of the number of shares of
Warrant Stock purchased upon such exercise. The Exercise Price may
be paid by cash, check or wire transfer of immediately available
funds, or by the surrender of promissory notes or other instruments
representing indebtedness of the Company to the Registered
Holder.
(b) Effective Time of
Exercise . 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 Section 3(a) above. At such time, the
person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for
Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in
Section 3(d) below shall be deemed to have become the holder
or holders of record of the Warrant Stock represented by such
certificates.
(c) Net Issue Exercise
.
(i) In lieu of exercising this
Warrant in the manner provided above in Section 3(a), the
Registered Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value of
this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender
of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together
with notice of such net issue exercise election in the form
appended hereto as Exhibit B in which event the Company
shall issue to such Holder a number of shares of Warrant Stock
computed using the following formula:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Where
|
|
X =
|
|
The number of
shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the Registered
Holder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Y =
|
|
The number of
shares of Warrant Stock purchasable under this Warrant or the
portion thereof being cancelled (at the date of such
calculation).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A =
|
|
The fair market
value of one share of Warrant Stock (at the date of such
calculation).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
B =
|
|
The Exercise
Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
|
(ii) For purposes of this
Section 3(c), the fair market value of Warrant Stock on the
date of calculation shall mean with respect to each share of
Warrant Stock:
(A) if the Warrant Stock is traded
on an exchange or is quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the average
of the closing or last sale price of the Warrant Stock reported for
the five business days immediately preceding the date of net
issuance exercise;
(B) if the Warrant Stock is not
traded on an exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, but is
traded in the over-the-counter market, the mean of the closing bid
and asked prices of the Warrant Stock reported for the five
business days immediately preceding the date of net issuance
exercise;
-2-
(C) if (A) or (B) is not
applicable, the fair market value of Warrant Stock shall be at the
highest price per share which the Company could obtain on the date
of calculation from a willing buyer (not a current employee or
director) for shares of common stock sold by the Company, from
authorized but unissued shares, as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors, unless the Company is at such time subject to
an acquisition as described in Section 8 below, in which case
the fair market value of a share of Warrant Stock shall be deemed
to be the value received by the holders of such stock had this
Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such
acquisition.
(d) Delivery to Holder
. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in
whole or in part, and in any event within ten (10) days
thereafter, 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) shall direct:
(i) a certificate or certificates
for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Registered
Holder shall be entitled, 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 shares of Warrant Stock equal (without giving
effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares
called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such
shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon such exercise as
provided in Section 3(a) or 3(c) above.
4. Adjustments
.
(a) Stock Splits and
Dividends . If the Warrant Stock shall be subdivided into a
greater number of shares or a dividend in the applicable Warrant
Stock shall be paid in respect of such Warrant Stock, the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the
record date of such dividend shall simultaneously with the
effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record
date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If outstanding
shares of the applicable Warrant Stock shall be combined into a
smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the
effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased.
When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price,
the number of shares of Warrant Stock 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 Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect
immediately after such adjustment.
(b) Reclassification, Etc
. In case there occurs any reclassification or change of the
outstanding securities of the Company or of any reorganization of
the Company (or any other corporation the stock or securities of
which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant)
or any similar corporate reorganization on or after the date hereof
, then and in each such case the Registered Holder, upon the
exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such
reclassification, change, or reorganization shall be entitled to
receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property
receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such consummation,
the
-3-
stock or other securities or property to which
such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such
Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all
subject to further adjustment pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 4.
(c) Change of Control
. If at any time after the date of this Warrant, there is a
sale, conveyance or disposal of all or substantially all of the
Company’s property or business or the Company’s merger
into or consolidation with any other corporation or any other
transaction or series of related transactions in which more than
fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company is
disposed of (other than a merger effected exclusively for the
purpose of changing the domicile of the Company) (the “
Change of Control Event ”), then at the
Registered Holder’s option, this Warrant may be exercised
immediately prior to such Change of Control Event. This Warrant
shall terminate upon the closing of a Change of Control
Event.
(d) Adjustment Certificate
. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Warrant
Stock or the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 4, the
Company shall promptly mail to the Registered Holder a certificate
setting forth (i) a brief statement of the facts requiring
such adjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price after such adjustment
and (iii) the kind and amount of stock or other securities or
property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such
adjustment.
(e) Acknowledgement .
In order to avoid doubt, it is acknowledged that the holder of this
Warrant shall be entitled to the benefit of all adjustments in the
number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon
conversion of the applicable preferred stock of the Company which
occur prior to the exercise of this Warrant, including without
limitation, any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion as a result of a dilutive issuance of
capital stock.
5.

and the Warrant Stock (together, the “

the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “

pledge, distribute, offer for sale, transfer or otherwise dispose
