THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES
THAT for value received,
M.A.G. Capital, LLC, or its registered assigns (hereinafter called
the “ Holder ”) is entitled to purchase
from Diametrics Medical, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (hereinafter
called the “ Company ”), the above
referenced number of fully paid and nonassessable shares (the
“ Shares ”) of common stock, par value
$1.00 per share (the “ Common Stock ”) of
Company, at the Warrant Price per Share referenced above; the
number of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant
referenced above being subject to adjustment from time to time as
described herein. This Warrant is issued in connection with that
certain Warrant Subscription Agreement dated as of
September 20, 2006, by and between the Company and Holder (the
“ Subscription Agreement ”). The exercise
of this Warrant shall be subject to the provisions, limitations and
restrictions contained herein.
1. Term and Exercise
.
1.1 Term .
This Warrant is exercisable in whole
or in part (but not as to any fractional share of Common Stock), at
any time and from time to time after the later of (x) the date
that is six months after the Issuance Date and (y) the date of
approval (the “Shareholder Approval Date”) by the
shareholders of the Company of either (i) an amendment to the
Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to
increase the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is
authorized to issue or (ii) the merger of the Company into a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in the State of
Delaware, in either case resulting in a sufficient number of
authorized shares for the Company to reserve a sufficient number of
shares of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant, but prior to 6:00 p.m. (New York
Time) on the Expiration Date set forth above.
1.2 Warrant Price
. The Warrant shall be
exercisable at the Warrant Price referenced above.
1.3 Maximum Number of
Shares . The maximum
number of Shares of Common Stock exercisable pursuant to this
Warrant is 3,250,000 Shares, subject to adjustment as set forth
herein. However, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
in no event shall the Holder be permitted to exercise this Warrant
for a number of Shares greater than the number that would cause the
aggregate beneficial ownership of the Company’s Common Stock
(calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended) of the Holder and all persons affiliated with
the Holder to equal 9.99% of the Company’s Common Stock then
outstanding; provided that the Holder shall be responsible for any
calculation required for compliance with such 9.99% limit and shall
provide the Company with a certificate setting forth such
calculation at the time of any exercise of this Warrant in whole or
in part.
1.4 Procedure for Exercise of
Warrant . Holder may
exercise this Warrant by delivering the following to the principal
office of the Company in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof:
(i) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the
form attached as Schedule A and the certificate described in
Section 1.3 hereof, (ii) payment of the Warrant Price
then in effect for each of the Shares being purchased, as
designated in the Notice of Exercise, and (iii) this Warrant.
Payment of the Warrant Price may be in cash, certified or official
bank check payable to the order of the Company, or wire transfer of
funds to the Company’s account (or any combination of any of
the foregoing) in the amount of the Warrant Price for each share
being purchased.
1.5 Delivery of Certificate
and New Warrant . In
the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant, a certificate or certificates for the shares of Common
Stock so purchased, registered in the name of the Holder or such
other name or names as may be designated by the Holder, together
with any other securities or other property which the Holder is
entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be
delivered to the Holder hereof, at the Company’s expense,
within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) trading days,
after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been so
exercised; and, unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant
representing the number of Shares (except a remaining fractional
share), if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then
have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder hereof
within such time. The person in whose name any certificate for
shares of Common Stock is issued upon exercise of this Warrant
shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of
record of such shares on the date on which the Warrant was
surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was received by the
Company, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate,
except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is on a date
when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such
person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Shares at
the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the
stock transfer books are open.
1.6 Restrictive
Legend . Each
certificate for Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in
substantially the form as follows, together with any additional
legend required by (i) any applicable state securities laws
and (ii) any securities exchange upon which such Shares may,
at the time of such exercise, be listed:
“The shares represented by
this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended and may not be sold, offered for sale,
transferred or pledged in the absence of such registration or an
exemption therefrom under such Act.”
Any certificate issued at any time
in exchange or substitution for any certificate bearing such legend
shall also bear such legend unless, in the opinion of counsel for
the Holder thereof (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Company), the securities represented thereby are not, at
such time, required by law to bear such legend.
1.7 Fractional Shares
. No fractional Shares shall be
issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Warrant. If a
fractional share interest arises upon any exercise or conversion of
the Warrant, the Company shall round up the number of Shares to be
issued to the nearest whole Share and the Holder shall increase the
consideration due upon exercise by an amount computed by
multiplying such fractional interest by the Warrant Price of a full
Share then in effect.
1.8 Cashless
Exercise .
(a) Holder may, at its option, in
lieu of paying the Warrant Price upon exercise of this Warrant
pursuant to Section 1.4 hereof, elect to receive instead a
number of Shares computed using the following formula:
X= Y(A-B )
A
Where X= the number of Shares
issuable to Holder upon exercise of this Warrant under this
Section 1.8, Y=the number of Shares for which this Warrant is
then being exercised, in whole or in part, A=the Fair Market Value
(as defined below) of one Share of Common Stock as of the exercise
date; and B=the Warrant Price of one Share of Common
Stock.
(b) For purposes of this
Section 1.8, “ Fair Market Value ”
of one Share of Common Stock as of a particular date shall be
determined as follows: (i) if traded on a national securities
exchange or through the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Fair Market Value
shall be deemed to be the volume weighted average closing price of
the Common Stock on such exchange for the five trading days
immediately prior to the date the Holder delivers its Notice of
Exercise to the Company (or if no reported sales took place on any
of the five days, the last five trading days on which any such
sales took place prior to the date of such notice); (ii) if
traded over-the-counter but not on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the
Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the volume weighted average
closing price of the Common Stock on such exchange for the five
trading days immediately prior to the date the Holder delivers its
Notice of Exercise to the Company (or if no reported sales took
place on any of the five days, the last five trading days on which
any such sales took place prior to the date of such notice); and
(iii) if not then traded on any public market, the Fair Market
Value shall be the as mutually determined by the Holder and the
Company or, if the Holder and the Company are unable to reach such
agreement, as determined by a nationally recognized independent
investment banker or valuation consultant (which has not been
retained by the Company or any of its affiliates for the past two
years preceding such determination) mutually acceptable to Holder
and Company.
