Eagle Broadband,
Inc.
WARRANT NO. February
101
Dated: February 10, 2006
Eagle
Broadband, Inc. , a
corporation organized under the laws of the State of Texas (the
“Company”), hereby certifies that, for value received
from Dutchess Private Equities Fund, L.P. (the
“Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth
below, to purchase from the Company up to a total of two hundred
and forty-six thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars ($246,750)
of Common Stock, $.001 par value per share (the “Common
Stock”), of the Company (each such share, a “Warrant
Share” and all such shares, the “Warrant Shares”)
at an exercise price equal to the Fixed Conversion Price (as
defined in the Debenture Agreement of this date between the Company
and the original Holder). The Warrant may be exercised on a
cashless basis anytime after issuance through and including the
fifth (5th) anniversary of its original issuance (the
“Expiration Date”), subject to the following terms and
conditions:
1. Registration of Warrant . 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, and the Company shall not be
affected by notice to the contrary.
2. Registration of Transfers and
Exchanges .
(a) The Company or the transfer agent shall enter
or record the transfer of any portion of this Warrant in the
Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company at
the office specified in or pursuant to Section 3(b). Upon any such
registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock,
in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a
“New Warrant”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant
so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant
evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so
transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder.
The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall
be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights
and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.
(b) This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the
surrender hereof by the Holder to the office of the Company
specified in or pursuant to Section 3(b) for one or more New
Warrants, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the
number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder. Any
such New Warrant will be dated the date of such
exchange.
3. Duration and Exercise of Warrants
.
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable by the
registered Holder on any business day before 5:00 P.M., Boston
time, at any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof
to and including the Expiration Date. At 5:00 P.M., Boston time on
the Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised
prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value. Prior to
the Expiration Date, the Company may not call or otherwise redeem
this Warrant without the prior written consent of the
Holder.
(b) Subject to Sections 2(b), 6 and 10, upon
surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Election to Purchase
attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Company at its
address for notice set forth in Section 11 and upon payment of the
Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the
Holder intends to purchase hereunder, in the manner provided
hereunder, all as specified by the Holder in the Form of Election
to Purchase, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than
5 business days after the Date of Exercise (as defined herein))
issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to or upon
the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the
Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable
upon such exercise, free of restrictive legends except (i) either
in the event that a registration statement covering the resale of
the Warrant Shares and naming the Holder as a selling stockholder
thereunder is not then effective or the Warrant Shares are not
freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”), or (ii) if this Warrant shall
have been issued pursuant to a written agreement between the
original Holder and the Company, as required by such agreement. In
the case of (i) above, the Warrant Shares will bear a Securities
Act restrictive legend. Any person so designated by the Holder to
receive Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have become holder of
record of such Warrant Shares as of the Date of Exercise (as
defined in this subsection) of this Warrant. A “Date of
Exercise” means the date on which the Company shall have
received (i) this Warrant (or any New Warrant, as applicable), with
the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto (or attached to
such New Warrant) appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii)
payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so
indicated by the holder hereof to be purchased.
(c) This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in
its entirety or, from time to time, for a portion of the number of
Warrant Shares. If less than all of the Warrant Shares which may be
purchased under this Warrant are exercised at any time, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Warrant
evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant
Shares for which no exercise has been evidenced by this Warrant. In
the event the Common Stock representing the Warrant Shares is not
delivered per the written instructions of the Purchaser, within ten
(10) business days after the Notice of Election and Warrant is
received by the Company (the “Delivery Date”), then in
such event the Company shall pay to Holder two percent (2.0%) in
cash, of the dollar value of the Warrant Shares to be issued per
each day after the Delivery Date that the Warrant Shares are not
delivered. The Company acknowledges that its failure to deliver the
Warrant Shares by the Delivery Date will cause the Holder to suffer
damages in an amount that will be difficult to ascertain.
Accordingly, the parties agree that it is appropriate to include in
this Warrant a provision for liquidated damages. The parties
acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision set
forth in this section represents the parties’ good faith
effort to quantify such damages and, as such, agree that the form
and amount of such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not
constitute a penalty. The payment of liquidated damages shall not
relieve the Company from its obligations to deliver the Common
Stock pursuant to the terms of this Warrant. The Company shall make
any payments incurred under this Section 3 in immediately available
funds within five (5) business days from the date of issuance of
the applicable Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit
Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or cancel the Notice
of Election for the Company’s failure to issue and deliver
Common Stock to the Holder within seven (7) business days following
the Delivery Date.
4. Registration Rights . During the term of this Warrant, the Company
agrees to use its best efforts to file, within ten (10) calendar
days of the Closing, a registration statement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the Warrant Shares
and naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder (unless
the Warrant Shares are otherwise freely transferable without volume
restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) or Rule 144A promulgated under
the Act). The registration rights granted to the Holder pursuant to
this Section shall continue until all of the Holder’s Warrant
Shares have been sold in accordance with an effective registration
statement or upon the Expiration Date, or as otherwise provided in
the Debenture Registration Rights Agreement entered into between
the Company and the original Holder as of the original issuance
date hereof. The Company will pay all registration expenses in
connection therewith.
5. Payment of Taxes . The Company will
pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of
Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that
may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in
a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be
responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result
of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares
upon exercise hereof.
6. Replacement of Warrant . If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or
destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in
exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in
lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only
upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of
such loss, theft or destruction and indemnity, if requested,
satisfactory to it. Applicants for a New Warrant under such
circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable
regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable charges as
the Company may prescribe.
7. Reservation of Warrant Shares
. The Company covenants that it will
at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its
authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant
as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then
issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant,
free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase
rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the
adjustments and restrictions of Section 8). The Company covenants
that all Warrant Shares that shall be so issuable and deliverable
shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise
Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly
authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable. If the Company
does not have a sufficient amount of Common Stock authorized to
reserve for the Warrant Shares, it shall use its best efforts to
place before shareholder vote a proposal to increase the number of
its authorized shares as soon as reasonably practicable.
8. Certain Adjustments . The Exercise Price and number of Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to
adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 8. Upon
each such adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section
8, the Holder shall thereafter prior to the Expiration Date be
entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment
by the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the
product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment.
(a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant
is outstanding, (i) shall pay a stock d
