(b) Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock In case Parent or --------------------------------------------- WGSI, as the case may be, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue or sell Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 2.16.4(d) or (e)); provided that such Additional Shares of Common Stock -------- shall not be deemed to have been issued unless (i) the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 2.16.4(f)) for such shares would be less than the greater of the Conversion Price and the Current Market Price in effect on the date of an immediately prior to such issue, sale, grant or assumption or immediately prior to the close of business on such record date (or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading), as the case may be, then, and in each such case, subject to Section 4.4(i), the Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue or sale, to a price (calculated to the nearest .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, for the total number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued or sold would purchase at the greater of such Conversion Price and such Current Market Price, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale, provided that, for -------- the purposes of this Section 2.16.4, (x) immediately after any Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 2.16.4(d) or 2.16.4(e), such Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding, and (y) treasury shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed to be outstanding. -13- (c) Extraordinary Dividends and Distributions In case Parent or WGSI, ----------------------------------------- as the case may be, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without limitation, any distribution of other or additional stock or other securities or property or options by way of dividend or spin-off, reclassification, recapitalization or similar corporate rearrangement) on Common Stock other than (a) a dividend payable in Additional Shares of Common Stock or (b) a regularly scheduled cash dividend, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price in effect on such record date or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading, less the Fair Value of such dividend or distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price. (d) Treatment of Options and Convertible Securities In case Parent or ----------------------------------------------- WGSI, as the case may be, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue, sell, grant or assume, or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities of Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, entitled to receive, any Options or Convertible Securities (whether or not the rights thereunder are immediately exercisable), then, and in each such case, the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, without regard to any provisions contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue, sale, grant or assumption or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date (or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading), provided that such Additional Shares of Common -------- Stock shall not be deemed to have been issued unless (i) the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 2.16.4(f)) for such shares would be less than the greater of the Conversion Price and the Current Market Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, sale, grant or assumption or immediately prior to the close of business on such record date (or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading), as the case may be, and provided, further, that -------- ------- (i) whether or not the Additional Shares of Common Stock underlying such Options or Convertible Securities are deemed to be issued, no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the subsequent issue or sale of Convertible Securities or shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities; -14- (ii) if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any increase in the consideration payable to Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, or decrease in the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable, upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof (by change of rate or otherwise), the Conversion Price computed upon the original issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof (or upon the occurrence of the record date, or date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading, as the case may be, with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such increase or decrease insofar as it affects such Options, or the rights of conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities, which are outstanding at such time; (iii) upon the expiration (or purchase by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, and cancellation or retirement) of any such Options which shall not have been exercised or the expiration of any rights of conversion or exchange under any such Convertible Securities which (or purchase by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, and cancellation or retirement of any such Convertible Securities the rights of conversion or exchange under which) shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Price computed upon the original issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof (or upon the occurrence of the record date, or date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading, as the case may be, with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such expiration (or such cancellation or retirement, as the case may be), be recomputed as if: (A) in the case of Options for Common Stock or Convertible Securities, the only Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold were the Additional Shares of Common Stock, if any, actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and the consideration received therefor was the consideration actually received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of all such Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration actually received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, upon such exercise, or for the issue or sale of all such Convertible Securities which were actually converted or exchanged, plus the additional consideration, if any, actually received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, upon such conversion or exchange, and (B) in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, only the Convertible Securities, if any, actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such Options were issued at the time of the issue or sale, grant or assumption of such Options, and the consideration received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, for the Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have then been issued was the consideration actually received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of all such Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration deemed to have been received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be (pursuant to Section 2.16.4(f)) upon the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities with respect to which such Options were actually exercised; (iv) no readjustment pursuant to subsection (ii) or (iii) above shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price by an amount in excess of the amount of the -15- adjustment thereof originally made in respect of the issue, sale, grant or assumption of such Options or Convertible Securities; and (v) in the case of any such Options which expire by their terms not more than 30 days after the date of issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made until the expiration or exercise of all such Options, whereupon such adjustment shall be made in the manner provided in subsection (iii) above. (e) Treatment of Stock Dividends, Stock Splits, Etc In case Parent or ----------------------------------------------- WGSI, as the case may be, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall declare or pay any dividend on Common Stock payable in Common Stock, or shall effect a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend or dividend in shares of Common Stock), then, and in each such case, Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued (i) in the case of any such dividend, immediately after the close of business on the record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend, or (ii) in the case of any such subdivision, at the close of business on the day immediately prior to the day upon which such action becomes effective. (f) Computation of Consideration For the purposes of this Section ---------------------------- 2.16.4, (i) the consideration for the issue or sale of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall, irrespective of the accounting treatment of such consideration, (x) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the net amount of cash received by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, without deducting any expenses paid or incurred by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, or any commissions or compensations paid or concessions or discounts allowed to underwriters, dealers or others performing similar services in connection with such issue or sale, (y) insofar as it consists of property (including securities) other than cash, be computed at the Fair Value thereof at the time of such issue or sale, and (z) in case Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or sold together with other stock or securities or other assets of Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, for a consideration which covers both, be the portion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above, allocable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock, such allocation to be determined in the same manner that the Fair Value of property not consisting of cash or securities is to be determined as provided in the definition of 'Fair Value' herein; (ii) Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 2.16.4, relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to have been issued for a consideration per share determined by dividing -16- (x) the total amount, if any, received and receivable by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, as consideration for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of the Options or Convertible Securities in question, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration to protect against dilution) payable to Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, upon the exercise in full of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or, in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, in each case computing such consideration as provided in the foregoing subdivision (i), by (y) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number to protect against dilution) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities; and (iii) Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to this Section, relating to stock dividends, stock splits, etc. or to employee benefit plans, employee compensation or incentives of Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, or any Affiliate thereof or otherwise to employees of Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, or any Affiliate thereof (except in a public offering open to the public generally on the same terms as such employees) shall be deemed to have been issued for no consideration. (g) Adjustments for Combinations, Etc In case the outstanding --------------------------------- shares of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, be proportionately increased. (h) Dilution in Case of Other Securities In case any Other ------------------------------------ Securities shall be issued or sold or shall become subject to issue or sale upon the conversion or exchange of any stock (or Other Securities) of Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, (or any issuer of Other Securities of any other Person) or to subscription, purchase or other acquisition pursuant to any Options issued or granted by Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, (or any such other issuer or Person) for a consideration such as to dilute, on a basis consistent with the standards established in the other provisions of this Section 2.16.4, the Conversion Rights under this Section ------- 2.16, then, and in each such case, the computations, adjustments and ---- readjustments provided for in this Section 2.16.4 with respect to the Conversion Price and the number of shares purchasable hereunder shall be made as nearly as possible in the manner so provided and applied to determine the amount of Other Securities from time to time receivable upon the exercise of the Conversion Rights, so as to protect the holders of the Term B Loan Amount against the effect of such dilution. -17- (i) De Minimis Adjustments. If the amount of any adjustment of the ---------------------- Conversion Price per share required pursuant to this Section 2.16.4 would be less than one tenth (1/10) of one percent (1%) of the Conversion Price, such amount shall be carried forward and adjustment with respect thereto made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate a change in the Conversion Price of at least one tenth (1/10) of one percent (1%) of such Conversion Price. All calculations under this Section shall be made to the nearest .001 of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. (j) Abandoned Dividend or Distribution. If Parent or WGSI, as the ---------------------------------- case may be, shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution (which results in an adjustment to the Conversion Price under the terms of this Agreement) and shall, thereafter, and before such dividend is paid or delivered to members entitled thereto, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then any adjustment made to the Conversion Price and number of shares of Common Stock into which Term B Loan Amount is convertible by reason of the taking of such record shall be reversed, and any subsequent adjustments, based thereon, shall be recomputed. (k) Other Dilutive Events In case any event shall occur as to which --------------------- the provisions of this Section hereof are not strictly applicable or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the conversion rights of the holders of this Agreement in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such Sections, then, in each such case, the Board of Directors of Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, shall make an adjustment in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, so as to preserve, without dilution, the Conversion Rights in accordance with this Section 2.16. ------------ (l) No Dilution or Impairment Parent or WGSI, as the case may be, ------------------------- shall not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or through any consolidation, merger, reorganization, transfer of assets, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Section ------- 2.16, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all ----- such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Term B Lender under this Section 2.16 against dilution or other impairment. Without limiting the ------------ generality of the foregoing, Parent or WGSI, as the case may be (i) shall take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that Parent and WGSI, as the case may be, may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, free from all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances, preemptive rights and charges on the exercise of the Conversion Rights, (ii) shall not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Conversion Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable after the action upon the exercise of the Conversion Rights would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) then authorized by Parent's or WGSI's, as the case may be, certificate of incorporation and available for the purpose of issue upon -18- such exercise, (iii) shall not permit the par value of any shares of stock receivable upon exercise of the Conversion Rights to exceed the amount payable therefor upon such exercise, and (iv) shall not issue any capital stock of any class which is preferred as to dividends or as to the distribution of assets upon voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, unless the rights of the holders thereof shall be limited to a fixed sum or percentage of par value or a sum determined by reference to a formula based on a published index of interest rates, an interest rate publicly announced by a financial institution or a similar indicator of interest rates in respect of participation in dividends and to a fixed sum or percentage of par value in any such distribution of assets. (k) Section 6 of the Loan Agreement is amended by inserting a new Section --------- ------- 6.16 and Section 6.17 at the end of Section 6, to read as follows: ---- ------------ --------- Section 6.16 Notice of Required Governmental Consents. Notify the ---------------------------------------- Term B Lender within ten (10) Business Days of the Second Amendment Closing Date whether the consent of, or notice to, any Governmental Authority is required for (i) exercise of the WGSI Conversion Right or (ii) the exercise of the WGSI Warrant. Section 6.17 Full Cooperation and Best Efforts. Cooperate fully with --------------------------------- the Term B Lender and use best efforts to obtain all consents and to deliver all notices which may be required for the exercise of the WGSI Conversion Right and the exercise of the WGSI Warrant, in each case as soon as possible and at the sole cost and expense of the Borrowers. (l) Schedule C-1 hereby is amended and restated in its entirety to read as ------------ set forth in Annex I attached hereto. 2. Acknowledgement of the Obligations.
