VBI Vaccines Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment No. 1”) to amend the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the “Annual Report”), as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 25, 2016 (the “Original Filing Date”). This Amendment No. 1 is being filed solely to amend Exhibit 10.7 (the “Exhibit”) originally filed with the Annual Report. The Company had sought confidential treatment under Rule 406(b) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Rule 24b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for portions of the Exhibit and, following correspondence and conversations with the Staff of the Commission's Division of Corporate Finance, is re-filing the Exhibit to address comments the Company received from the Staff in response to its request for confidential treatment.

 

The Exhibit filed herewith supersedes in its entirety the Exhibit originally filed with the Annual Report. Except for the revised Exhibit, this Amendment No. 1 does not amend any other information set forth in the Annual Report. This Amendment No. 1 speaks as of the Original Filing Date, does not reflect any events that may have occurred subsequent to the Original Filing Date, and does not modify or update in any way any disclosures made in the Annual Report. Additionally, in connection with the filing of this Amendment No. 1, the Company is including new certifications of the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) or Rule 15d-14(a) of the Exchange Act. The Company is not including certifications pursuant to Section 1350 of Chapter 63 of Title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C.1350) as no financial statements are being filed with this Amendment No. 1.

Article X
GUARANTY

 

Section 10.1 Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that such Guarantor is jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lender and its successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Lender by each Loan Party. Each Guarantor agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, and that its obligations under this Article X shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by,

 

(a)     the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Loan Party is or may become a party;

 

(b)     the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Article X) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by the Lender with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

 

(c)     the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by the Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);

 

(d)     the insolvency of any Loan Party; or

 

(e)     any other action or circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor,

 

 
51 

 

  

it being agreed by each Guarantor that its obligations under this Article X shall not be discharged until the Termination Date. Each Guarantor shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder.

 

Section 10.2 Waivers. Each Guarantor expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel the Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against the Borrower or any other Guarantor, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Guarantor. It is agreed among each Guarantor and the Lender that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Article X and such waivers, the Lender would decline to enter into this Agreement.

 

Section 10.3 Benefit of Guaranty. Each Guarantor agrees that the provisions of this Article X are for the benefit of the Lender and its successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lender, on the other hand, the obligations of the Borrower and each Guarantor under the Loan Documents.

 

Section 10.4 Subordination of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably subordinates to the prior payment in full, in cash, of the Obligations any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until all Commitments have expired or been terminated and the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit the Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Article X, and that the Lender and its successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 10.4.

 

Section 10.5 Election of Remedies. If the Lender may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving the Lender a Lien upon any collateral, whether owned by any Grantor or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, the Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Article X. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, the Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Loan Party or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Guarantor hereby consents to such action by the Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by the Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation which each Guarantor might otherwise have had but for such action by the Lender. Any election of remedies which results in the denial or impairment of the right of the Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against the any Loan Party shall not impair any Guarantor’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event the Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, the Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by the Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether the Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Article X, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which the Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

 

 
 52

 

  

Section 10.6 Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Guarantor’s liability under this Article X shall be limited to an amount not to exceed the amount which could be claimed by the Lender from such Guarantor under this Article X without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Guarantor’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Guarantor.

 

Section 10.7 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Guarantor under this Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Loan Party to the Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which each Loan Party is a party or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of such Loan Party, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

Section 11.4 Indemnification. In consideration of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Lender, the Borrower hereby indemnifies, agrees to defend, exonerates and holds the Lender and each of its officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, liabilities, obligations and damages, and expenses incurred in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnified Party is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), including reasonable attorneys’ and professionals’ fees and disbursements, whether incurred in connection with actions between the parties hereto or the parties hereto and third parties (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by the Indemnified Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) the entering into and performance of any Loan Document by any of the Indemnified Parties (including any action brought by or on behalf of the Borrower as the result of any determination by the Lender pursuant to Article V not to fund any Loan; provided that, any such action is resolved in favor of such Indemnified Party) or (ii) any Environmental Liability, any actual or alleged breach of or non-compliance with Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits, any Hazardous Materials, or any other decision, act, omission or matter relating to the environment, natural resources, health, safety or welfare.

Section 11.6 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

On March 10, Borrower issued convertible notes to new and existing investors in the aggregate principal amount and for total gross proceeds of $1,500,000 (the “Bridge Notes”) which bear interest at 5% per annum, except upon and during the continuation of an event of default the interest rate shall be 15% per annum.  The maturity date of the Bridge Notes is September 8, 2014, which may be extended by three months if Borrower fails to close the Merger, or a similar transaction with an Applicable Entity (as defined below) prior to the maturity date despite Borrower reasonable and good faith best efforts to do so and through no fault of Borrower, in which case the maturity date shall be extended by three months for a maturity date (as extended) of December 8, 2014. The maturity date for all other issued and outstanding Notes was amended to be September 8, 2014.

   
  If prior to the maturity date of the Bridge Notes (i) Borrower completes a financing resulting in aggregate gross proceeds to Borrower of at least $9,000,000.00 (excluding conversion of the Bridge Notes) (a “Qualified Financing”), (ii) the Merger is consummated or (iii) Borrower enters into a similar merger  with an alternative NASDAQ listed public company (a “NASDAQ Pubco”) or a company whose common stock is listed in an over-the-counter market maintained by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. (an “OTC Pubco” and together with the PubCo and the NASDAQ Pubco, each an “Applicable Entity,” as applicable), then the Bridge Notes shall be automatically converted into shares of Borrower or the Applicable Entity at a 15% discount to the price per share issued as part of such Qualified Financing or the PIPE.
   
  If the Merger is not consummated prior to the maturity date of the Bridge Notes or Borrower does not consummate a merger with a NASDAQ Pubco or an OTC Pubco prior to the maturity date of the Bridge Notes, in addition to full repayment of the Bridge Notes and any accrued interest thereon, purchasers of the Bridge Notes shall be entitled to on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of their respective Bridge Notes, a total amount of common stock of Borrower determined by dividing 15% of the total outstanding principal and interest of the Bridge Notes as of the maturity date by $1.455 per share (as adjusted for any forward or reverse stock splits), which share price is equivalent to 75% of the price per share of Borrower’s Series A Preferred Stock last issued by Borrower.

HIV Vaccine Composition

 

(Abstract - An anti-HIV vaccine composition is disclosed. The vaccine comprises an combination of immunogenic peptide mixtures, which mixtures may be prepared in a single synthesis. The composition collectively represents the in vivo variability seen in immunogenic epitopes from highly variable regions of HIV. Immunization with the vaccine elicits broadly reactive immunity (CTL and T helper cell responses) against the divergent strains of HIV upon which it is based. The vaccine may be formulated to target regionally distinct variability based on an HIV clade predominant in a geographical region.)

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall be as defined in the Merger Agreement.

 

(a)     The Merger Agreement provides demand registration rights to the Pre-Merger Company Sharesholders holding at least twenty-five percent (25%) of shares of Parent Common Stock held by all Pre-Merger Company Shareholders immediately after the Merger, including any shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger, issued in the Private Placement and/or issuable upon exercise or conversion of any options, warrants or convertible securities held by such Pre-Merger Company Shareholders immediately after the Merger or issued in the Private Placement (the “Required Registration Holders”), Parent shall, as soon as practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days after Parent’s receipt of the Registration Request, file with the SEC, and thereafter use its commercially reasonable efforts to have declared effective as soon as practicable and in any event within ninety (90) days after the initial filing thereof with the SEC, a registration statement on Form S-3 (or if Parent is not eligible to use Form S-3, any other form that Parent is eligible to use) (a “S-3 Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act covering the resale by all Pre-Merger Company Shareholders (collectively, the “Registration Holders”) of such shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Registrable Shares”). In its discretion, Parent will be permitted to register any other shares for resale by other eligible selling stockholders using the S-3 Registration Statement and other shares on its own behalf on the S-3 Registration Statement. Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the S-3 Registration Statement continuously effective and usable for the resale of the Registrable Shares covered thereby for a period commencing on the date on which the SEC declares the S-3 Registration Statement effective or it otherwise becomes automatically effective and ending on the earlier of (i) the date upon which all of the Registrable Shares first become eligible for resale under the Securities Act without restriction or (ii) the first date upon which all of the Registrable Shares covered by the S-3 Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such S-3 Registration Statement or otherwise. The Registration Holders agree to cooperate with and provide such assistance to Parent, as Parent may reasonably request, in connection with any registration and sale of the Registrable Shares, including without limitation, accurately completing and executing selling shareholder questionnaires prior to the filing of any S-3 Registration Statement. 

 

(b)     The agreements entered into by Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated by the October 2013 Proxy Statement contain certain provisions with respect to the voting rights of the shares of Parent Capital Stock, the registration of shares of Parent Capital Stock, participation rights with respect to Parent Capital Stock, and anti-dilution rights with respect to Parent Capital Stock. Those agreements, which are attached as exhibits to Parent's Form 8/K filed with the SEC on August 30, 2013, include (A) the Subscription Agreement, (B) the Class A Warrant, (C) the Class B Warrants, and (D) the Interest Preservation Letter Agreement. 

 

(c)     DKR and Hudson Bay were granted certain registration rights pursuant to the Hudson Bay Financing Documents (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

EUR 1,000,000 to EUR 2,000,000 upon reaching Cumulative Net Sales of EUR 50,000,000 , in the case of a sublicense, the payments are reduced by 50%; and

 

in the case of a sublicense only, EUR 500,000 to EUR 1,000,000 upon reaching Cumulative Net Sales of EUR 75,000,000 and EUR 100,000,000

  

The events obliging VBI to make these payments have not yet occurred and the probability of them occurring is not determinable; consequently, no amounts are accrued in respect of these contingencies.

To provide incentive to the Consultant for the successful development of the HCV vaccine, the Company will provide incentive based pay for each of the following events (the “Milestones”):

 

 

For each new eVLP vaccine patent filed (in which Consultant is an inventor AND which does not include other inventors/rights other than those already secured owned by VBI)

 

FDA or EMEA approval to begin clinical testing of an eVLP based HCV vaccine

These values were calculated using industry standard risk-adjustment of potential future revenues in relation to the time and development risk involved in developing a potential HCV vaccine.”

 

With respect to the equity commitment noted above, management is exploring possible alternative equity grants that are mutually acceptable and will be submitted to the post-merger board of directors for approval.

 

3.     The Consulting Agreement Dr. Charlotte Fribert dated January 28, 2013 includes the following provisions:

E-12 

 

  

All dividends, Distributions, interest, principal, cash payments, Payment Intangibles and Proceeds that may at any time and from time to time be held by any Grantor, but which such Grantor is then obligated to deliver to the Secured Party, shall, until delivery to the Secured Party, be held by such Grantor separate and apart from its other property in trust for the Secured Party. The Secured Party agrees that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Secured Party shall have given the notice referred to in clause (b), the Grantors will have the exclusive voting power with respect to any of their Investment Property constituting Collateral and the Secured Party will, upon the written request of a Grantor, promptly deliver such proxies and other documents, if any, as shall be reasonably requested by such Grantor which are necessary to allow such Grantor to exercise that voting power; provided that no vote shall be cast, or consent, waiver, or ratification given, or action taken by any Grantor that would impair any such Collateral or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of any Loan Document.

 

Change of Name, etc. No Grantor will change its name or place of incorporation or organization or federal taxpayer identification number except upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Secured Party.

 

As to Accounts.

 

The Grantors shall have the right to collect all Accounts so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

 

Upon (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and (ii) the delivery of notice by the Secured Party to a Grantor, all Proceeds of Collateral received by such Grantor shall be delivered in kind to the Secured Party for deposit in a Deposit Account of such Grantor maintained with the Secured Party or with any depositary institution that has entered into a Control Agreement in favor of the Secured Party (together with any other Accounts pursuant to which any portion of the Collateral is deposited with the Secured Party, the “Collateral Accounts”), and such Grantor shall not commingle any such Proceeds, and shall hold separate and apart from all other property, all such Proceeds in express trust for the benefit of the Secured Party until delivery thereof is made to the Secured Party.

 

Following the delivery of notice pursuant to clause (b)(ii) and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Party shall have the right to apply any amount in the Collateral Account to the payment of any Obligations which are due and payable.

 

With respect to each of the Collateral Accounts, it is hereby confirmed and agreed that (i) deposits in such Collateral Account are subject to a security interest as contemplated hereby, (ii) such Collateral Account shall be under the control of the Secured Party and (iii) the Secured Party shall have the sole right of withdrawal over such Collateral Account.

 

As to Grantors’ Use of Collateral.

 

Subject to clause (b), each Grantor (i) may in the ordinary course of its business, at its own expense, sell, lease or furnish under the contracts of service any of the Inventory normally held by such Grantor for such purpose, and use and consume, in the ordinary course of its business, any raw materials, work in process or materials normally held by such Grantor for such purpose, (ii) will, at its own expense, endeavor to collect, as and when due and in accordance with its customary practices, all amounts due with respect to any of the Collateral, including the taking of such action with respect to such collection as the Secured Party may request following the occurrence of an Event of Default or, in the absence of such request, as such Grantor may deem advisable, and (iii) may grant, in the ordinary course of business, to any party obligated on any of the Collateral, any rebate, refund or allowance to which such party may be lawfully entitled, and may accept, in connection therewith, the return of Goods, the sale or lease of which shall have given rise to such Collateral.

 

 
E-13 

 

  

At any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether before or after the maturity of any of the Obligations, the Secured Party may (i) revoke any or all of the rights of any Grantor set forth in clause (a), (ii) notify any parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to the Secured Party of any amounts due or to become due thereunder and (iii) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise and surrender, release, or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby.

 

Upon request of the Secured Party following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will, at its own expense, notify any parties obligated on any of its Collateral to make payment to the Secured Party of any amounts due or to become due thereunder.

 

At any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Secured Party may endorse, in the name of any Grantor, any item, howsoever received by the Secured Party, representing any payment on or other Proceeds of any of the Collateral.

 

As to Intellectual Property Collateral. Each Grantor covenants and agrees to comply with the following provisions as such provisions relate to any Intellectual Property Collateral material to the operations or business of such Grantor:

 

the Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue and maintain, at its own expense, legal protection for all Intellectual Property owned or controlled by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, including (i) initiating proceedings before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or similar offices or agencies in other countries or political subdivisions thereof, and filing applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of in contestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings and the paying fees and taxes and (ii) not doing or failing to perform acts whereby such Intellectual Property may lapse or become abandoned or dedicated to the public, invalid or unenforceable;

 

the Grantor shall promptly notify the Secured Party if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or registration relating to any material item of the Intellectual Property Collateral may become abandoned or dedicated to the public or placed in the public domain or invalid or unenforceable, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any foreign counterpart thereof or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral, its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same;

 

 
E-14

 

  

in no event will the Grantor or any of its agents, employees, designees or licensees file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, unless it promptly informs the Secured Party, and upon request of the Secured Party (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement), executes and delivers all agreements, instruments and documents as the Secured Party may request to evidence the Secured Party’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral; and

 

Within 30 days from the end of each Fiscal Quarter the Grantor will execute and deliver to the Secured Party (as applicable) a Patent Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement and/or Copyright Security Agreement, as the case may be, in the forms of Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C hereto in connection with its obtaining an interest in any such Intellectual Property, and shall execute and deliver to the Secured Party any other document reasonably required to acknowledge or register or perfect the Secured Party’s interest in any part of such item of Intellectual Property Collateral unless such Grantor shall determine in good faith (with the consent of the Secured Party) that any Intellectual Property Collateral is of negligible economic value to such Grantor.

 

As to Letter-of-Credit Rights.

 

Each Grantor, by granting a security interest in its Letter-of-Credit Rights to the Secured Party, intends to (and hereby does) collaterally assign to the Secured Party its rights (including its contingent rights) to the Proceeds of all Letter-of-Credit Rights of which it is or hereafter becomes a beneficiary or assignee. Each Grantor will promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer of each Letter of Credit and each nominated person (if any) with respect thereto to consent to such assignment of the Proceeds thereof in a consent agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party and deliver written evidence of such consent to the Secured Party.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Grantor will, promptly upon request by the Secured Party, (i) notify (and such Grantor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to notify) the issuer and each nominated person with respect to each of the Letters of Credit that the Proceeds thereof have been assigned to the Secured Party hereunder and any payments due or to become due in respect thereof are to be made directly to the Secured Party and (ii) arrange for the Secured Party to become the transferee beneficiary Letter of Credit.

 

As to Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor covenants and agrees that, until the payment in full of the Obligations and termination of all Commitments, with respect to any Commercial Tort Claim hereafter arising asserting damages in excess of $100,000 (individually or in the aggregate for all such claims), it shall deliver to the Secured Party a supplement in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party, together with all supplements to schedules thereto identifying such new Commercial Tort Claims.

 

 
E-15

 

  

Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If any Grantor at any time holds or acquires an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record,” as that term is defined in Section 201 of the U.S. Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the U.S. Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, with a value in excess of $1,000,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Secured Party thereof and, at the request of the Secured Party, shall take such action as the Secured Party may request to vest in the Secured Party control under Section 9-105 of the U.C.C. of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The Secured Party agrees with each Grantor that the Secured Party will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Secured Party and so long as such procedures will not result in the Secured Party’s loss of control, for such Grantor to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the U.C.C. or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the U.S. Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the U.S. Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Grantor with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record.

 

Further Assurances, etc. Each Grantor agrees that, from time to time at its own expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that the Secured Party may request, in order to perfect, preserve and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor will:

 

from time to time upon the request of the Secured Party, promptly deliver to the Secured Party such stock powers, instruments and similar documents, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Secured Party, with respect to such Collateral as the Secured Party may request and will, from time to time upon the request of the Secured Party, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, promptly transfer any securities constituting Collateral into the name of any nominee designated by the Secured Party; if any Collateral shall be evidenced by an Instrument, negotiable Document, Promissory Note or tangible Chattel Paper, deliver and pledge to the Secured Party hereunder such Instrument, negotiable Document, Promissory Note or tangible Chattel Paper duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party;

 

file (and hereby authorize the Secured Party to file) such Filing Statements or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices (including any assignment of claim form under or pursuant to the federal assignment of claims statute, 31 U.S.C. § 3726, any successor or amended version thereof or any regulation promulgated under or pursuant to any version thereof), as may be necessary or that the Secured Party may request in order to perfect and preserve the security interests and other rights granted or purported to be granted to the Secured Party hereby;

 

deliver to the Secured Party and at all times keep pledged to the Secured Party pursuant hereto, on a first-priority, perfected basis, at the request of the Secured Party, all Investment Property constituting Collateral, all Dividends and Distributions with respect thereto, and all interest and principal with respect to Promissory Notes, and all Proceeds and rights from time to time received by or distributable to such Grantor in respect of any of the foregoing Collateral;

 

 
E-16 

 

  

not take or omit to take any action the taking or the omission of which would result in any material impairment or alteration of any obligation of the maker of any Payment Intangible or other Instrument constituting Collateral, except as provided in Section 4.4;

 

not create any tangible Chattel Paper without placing a legend on such tangible Chattel Paper reasonably acceptable to the Secured Party indicating that the Secured Party has a security interest in such Chattel Paper;

 

furnish to the Secured Party, from time to time at the Secured Party’s request, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Secured Party may request, all in reasonable detail; and

 

do all things reasonably requested by the Secured Party in accordance with this Security Agreement in order to enable the Secured Party to have and maintain control over the Collateral consisting of Investment Property, Deposit Accounts, Letter-of-Credit-Rights and Electronic Chattel Paper.

 

With respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest hereunder, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to file one or more financing or continuation or financing change statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any UCC or PPSA financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a UCC or PPSA financing statement where permitted by law. Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to file financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby “all of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Collateral described in this Security Agreement.

 

Deposit Accounts. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the request of the Secured Party, each Grantor will maintain all of its Deposit Accounts only with the Secured Party or with any depositary institution that has entered into a Control Agreement in favor of the Secured Party.

 

Inbound Licenses. Each Grantor will, promptly after entering into or becoming bound by any inbound license or similar agreement relating to the sale, distribution, licensing or other commercialization of any Product or any Intellectual Property covering any Product (other than over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public), take such commercially reasonable actions as the Secured Party may reasonably request to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any Person whose consent or waiver is necessary for the Secured Party to be granted and perfect a valid security interest in such license or similar agreement and to fully exercise its rights under any of the Loan Documents in the event of a disposition or liquidation of the rights, assets or property that is the subject of such license or similar agreement.

 

 
E-17

 

 
THE SECURED PARTY

 

Secured Party Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Secured Party its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the Secured Party’s discretion, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement, including:

 

to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

 

to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other Instruments, Documents and Chattel Paper, in connection with clause (a) above;

 

to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Secured Party may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Secured Party with respect to any of the Collateral;

 

dispose of all or any part of any Collateral as provided in Section 6.1(a)(iv) below; and

 

to perform the affirmative obligations of such Grantor hereunder.

 

Each Grantor hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that the power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

 

Secured Party May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement.

 

Secured Party Has No Duty. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers. Except for reasonable care of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Collateral or responsibility for

 

ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Investment Property, whether or not the Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or

 

taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

 

Reasonable Care. The Secured Party is required to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its possession; provided that the Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral, if it takes such action for that purpose as any Grantor reasonably requests in writing at times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, but failure of the Secured Party to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care.

 

 
E-18

 

 
REMEDIES

 

Certain Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

 

The Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a Secured Party on default under the UCC or PPSA, as applicable (whether or not the UCC or the PPSA applies to the affected Collateral) and also may

 

take possession of any Collateral not already in its possession without demand and without legal process;

 

require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of the Secured Party forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Secured Party and make it available to the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party that is reasonably convenient to both parties,

 

enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof without demand and without legal process;

 

without notice except as specified below, lease, license, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Secured Party’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ prior notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

 

All cash Proceeds received by the Secured Party in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by the Secured Party against, all or any part of the Obligations as set forth in Section 4.4 of the Credit Agreement.

 

The Secured Party may:

 

transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of the Secured Party or its nominee, with or without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the Lien hereunder,

 

 
E-19

 

  

notify the parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to the Secured Party of any amount due or to become due thereunder,

 

withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Collateral Account;

 

enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto,

 

endorse any checks, drafts, or other writings in any Grantor’s name to allow collection of the Collateral,

 

take control of any Proceeds of the Collateral, and

 

execute (in the name, place and stead of any Grantor) endorsements, assignments, stock powers and other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Collateral.

 

Securities Laws. If the Secured Party shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Collateral that are Capital Securities pursuant to Section 6.1, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Secured Party, such Grantor will, at its own expense:

 

execute and deliver, and cause (or, with respect to any issuer which is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) each issuer of the Collateral contemplated to be sold and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of the Secured Party, advisable to register such Collateral under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended (the “Securities Act”), and cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Secured Party, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto;

 

use commercially reasonable efforts to exempt the Collateral under the state securities or “Blue Sky” laws and to obtain all necessary governmental approvals for the sale of the Collateral, as requested by the Secured Party;

 

cause (or, with respect to any issuer that is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) each such issuer to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and

 

do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of the Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law.

 

 
E-20

 

  

Compliance with Restrictions. Each Grantor agrees that in any sale of any of the Collateral whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Secured Party is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any Governmental Authority or official, and each Grantor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Secured Party be liable nor accountable to any Grantor for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction.

 

Protection of Collateral. The Secured Party may from time to time, at its option, perform any act which any Grantor fails to perform after being requested in writing so to perform (it being understood that no such request need be given after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) and the Secured Party may from time to time take any other action which the Secured Party deems necessary for the maintenance, preservation or protection of any of the Collateral or of its security interest therein.

  (i) surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its then principal executive offices (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction), together with a Subscription Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a "Subscription Agreement"), duly completed (including specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased) and executed; and
     
  (ii) payment to the Company of the Aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with Section Section 1.01(a)(ii).
     
  (b) Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price. Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made, at the option of the Holder as expressed in the Subscription Agreement, by the following methods:
     
  (i) by delivery to the Company of a certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of such Aggregate Exercise Price;
     
  (ii) by instructing the Company to withhold a number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price;
     
  (iii) by surrendering to the Company (x) Warrant Shares previously acquired by the Holder with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price and/or (y) other securities or debt obligations of the Company (including loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement) having a value as of the Exercise Date equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price (which value in the case of debt securities or obligations shall be the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, in the case of preferred stock shall be the liquidation value thereof plus accumulated and unpaid dividends and in the case of shares of Common Stock shall be the Fair Market Value thereof); or
     
  (iv) any combination of the foregoing;

 

 
5

 

 

provided; however; that the Holder may only use the Cashless Method to pay the Exercise Price for up to (but not in excess of) 279,706 Warrant Shares (subject to proportionate adjustment for any stock split, dividend, distribution, subdivision, recapitalization or combination).

 

In the event of any withholding of Warrant Shares or surrender of other equity securities pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above where the number of shares whose value is equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price is not a whole number, the number of shares withheld by or surrendered to the Company shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share and the Company shall make a cash payment to the Holder (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) based on the incremental fraction of a share being so withheld by or surrendered to the Company in an amount equal to the product of (x) such incremental fraction of a share being so withheld or surrendered multiplied by (y) in the case of Common Stock, the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share as of the Exercise Date, and, in all other cases, the value thereof as of the Exercise Date determined in accordance with clause (iii)(y) above.

 

(c)     Delivery of Stock Certificates. Upon receipt by the Company of the Subscription Agreement, surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (in accordance with Section Section 1.01(a) hereof), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter, execute (or cause to be executed) and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as provided in Section Section 1.01(c) hereof. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as the exercising Holder shall reasonably request in the Subscription Agreement and shall be registered in the name of the Holder or, subject to compliance with Section 0 below, such other Person's name as shall be designated in the Subscription Agreement. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates of Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares for all purposes, as of the Exercise Date.

 

(d)     Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional Warrant Share upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any fraction of a Warrant Share that the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay to such Holder an amount in cash (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) equal to the product of (i) such fraction multiplied by (ii) the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share on the Exercise Date.

 

(e)     Acknowledgement; Partial Exercise. Unless the purchase rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares being issued in accordance with Section Section 1.01(c) hereof, deliver to the Holder within a reasonable time an acknowledgement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, an “Acknowledgement”) indicating the number of Warrant Shares which remain issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, if any.

(f)     Valid Issuance of Warrant and Warrant Shares; Payment of Taxes. With respect to the exercise of this Warrant, the Company hereby represents, covenants and agrees:

 

(i)     This Warrant is, and any Warrant issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant shall be, upon issuance, duly authorized and validly issued.

 

(ii)     All Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be, upon issuance, and the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that such Warrant Shares are, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, issued without violation of any preemptive or similar rights of any stockholder of the Company and free and clear of all taxes, liens and charges.

 

(iii)     The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all such Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares may be listed at the time of such exercise (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).

 

(iv)     Without in any way limiting Section 6 hereof, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Warrant Shares, immediately upon such exercise, to be listed on any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares are listed at the time of such exercise.

 

(v)     The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed with respect to any applicable withholding or the issuance or delivery of the Warrant Shares to any Person other than the Holder, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

(g)     Conditional Exercise. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a public offering or a sale of the Company (pursuant to a merger, sale of stock, or otherwise), such exercise may at the election of the Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

 

 
7

 

  

(h)     Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and the par value per Warrant Share shall at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Exercise Price. The Company shall not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

(i)     No “Bad Actor” Disqualification. The Company has exercised reasonable care, in accordance with Commission rules and guidance, to determine whether any Covered Person (as defined below) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii) under the Securities Act (“Disqualification Events”). To the Company’s knowledge, no Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The Company has complied, to the extent applicable, with all disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) under the Securities Act. “Covered Persons” are those persons specified in Rule 506(d)(1) under the Securities Act, including the Company, any predecessor or affiliate of the Company, any director, executive officer, other officer participating in the offering, general partner or managing member of the Company, any beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power, any promoter (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) connected with the Company in any capacity at the time of the exercise of this Warrant, and any person that has been or will be paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of purchasers in connection with the sale of any securities of the Company (a “Solicitor”), any general partner or managing member of any Solicitor, and any director, executive officer or other officer participating in the offering of any Solicitor or general partner or managing member of any such Solicitor.

 

4.            Adjustment to Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 0.

 

(a)     Dividends and Distributions of Non-Company Securities. If, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Company makes or declares, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or any other distribution payable in securities of the Company (other than a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock or Options or Convertible Securities in each case in respect of Common Stock), cash or other property, then, and in each such event, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise of the Warrant, in addition to the number of Warrant Shares receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of the Company, cash or other property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrant been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Exercise Date, retained such securities, cash or other property receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 0 with respect to the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such provision shall be made if the Holder receives, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities, cash or other property as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.

(b)     Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Dividend, Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, (i) pay a dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Company payable in shares of Common Stock or in Options or Convertible Securities (in each case in respect of Common Stock), or (ii) subdivide (by any stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution or subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 4(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

(c)     Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation or Merger. In the event of any (i) capital reorganization of the Company, (ii) reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), (iii) consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, (iv) sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person, (v) Change of Control (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or (vi) other similar transaction, in each case which entitles the holders of Common Stock to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) cash, stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, each Warrant shall, immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the amount of cash or the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets of the Company or of the successor Person resulting from such transaction to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction and acquired the applicable number of Warrant Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant); and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder) shall be made with respect to the Holder's rights under this Warrant to insure that the provisions of this Section 0 hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to this Warrant in relation to any cash, shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant (including, in the case of any consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction in which the successor or purchasing Person is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment in the Exercise Price to the value per share for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction, and a corresponding immediate adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise, if the value so reflected is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction). The provisions of this Section 4(c) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, Changes of Control or similar transactions. The Company shall not effect any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and satisfactory to the Holder, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4(c), the Holder shall have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights contained in Section 0 instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 4(c) with respect to this Warrant.

(d)     Certain Events. If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 0 but not expressly provided for by such provisions occurs, then the Board shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 0; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(d) shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 0.

 

(e)     Certificate as to Adjustment.

 

(i)     As promptly as reasonably practicable following any adjustment of the Exercise Price, but in any event not later than three (3) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall furnish to the Holder a certificate of an executive officer setting forth in reasonable detail such adjustment and the facts upon which it is based and certifying the calculation thereof.

 

 
10

 

  

(ii)     As promptly as reasonably practicable following the receipt by the Company of a written request by the Holder, but in any event not later than three (3) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall furnish to the Holder a certificate of an executive officer certifying the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of Warrant Shares or the amount, if any, of other shares of stock, securities or assets then issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.  

 

  (f) Notices. In the event:
     
 

(i)

that the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, to vote at a meeting (or by written consent), to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other security; or

     
  (ii) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person; or
     
  (iii) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

  

then, and in each such case, the Company shall send or cause to be sent to the Holder at least ten (10) Business days prior to the applicable record date or the applicable expected effective date, as the case may be, for the event, a written notice specifying, as the case may be, (A) the record date for such dividend, distribution, meeting or consent or other right or action, and a description of such dividend, distribution or other right or action to be taken at such meeting or by written consent, or (B) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is proposed to take place, and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken with respect to which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Warrant and the Warrant Shares.

 

5.     Purchase Rights. In addition to (and not in limitation or in lieu of) any adjustments pursuant to Section 0 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any shares of Common Stock, Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of Common Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then the Holder shall be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder would have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

 
11

 

   

6.   Registration Rights.
     
 

(a)

Demand Registration.

 

(i)     At any time after the one hundred eightieth (180) day following the Original Issue Date, the Holder may request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Warrant Shares on Form S-1 or any successor form thereto (each a "Long-Form Registration"). Each request for a Long-Form Registration shall specify the approximate number of Warrant Shares required to be registered. Upon receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than five days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to all other holders of Registrable Securities having “piggy back” rights or equivalent, if any, who shall then have ten days from the date such notice is given to notify the Company in writing of their desire to be included in such registration. The Company shall cause a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (or any successor form) to be filed within 30 days after the date on which the initial request is given and shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter. The Company shall not be required to effect a Long-Form Registration more than five times by the Holder; provided, that a Registration Statement shall not count as a Long-Form Registration requested under this Section Section 1.01(a)(i) unless and until it has become effective and the Holder is able to register and sell at least 35% of the Warrant Shares requested to be included in such registration.

 

(ii)     The Company shall use its best efforts to qualify and remain qualified to register securities under the Securities Act pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any successor form thereto. At such time as the Company shall have qualified for the use of a Registration Statement on Form S-3, the Holder shall have the right to request an unlimited number of registrations of Warrant Shares on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration (each a "Short-Form Registration" and, together with each Long-Form Registration, a "Demand Registration"). Each request for a Short-Form Registration shall specify the approximate number of Warrant Shares requested to be registered. Upon receipt of any such request, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than five days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to all other holders of Registrable Securities having “piggy back” rights or equivalent, if any, who shall then have ten days from the date such notice is given to notify the Company in writing of their desire to be included in such registration. The Company shall cause a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form) to be filed within 30 days after the date on which the initial request is given and shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

 
12

 

  

(iii)     The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Long-Form Registration within 90 days after the effective date of a previous Long-Form Registration or a previous Piggyback Registration in which the Holder was permitted to register, and actually sold, at least 35% of the shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein. The Company may postpone for up to 60 days the filing or effectiveness of a Registration Statement for a Demand Registration if the Company's Board determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such Demand Registration would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate organization or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act. The Company may delay a Demand Registration hereunder only two times in any period of twelve consecutive months.

 

(iv)     If the Holder elects to distribute Warrant Shares covered by its request in an underwritten offering, it shall so advise the Company as a part of its request made pursuant to Section Section 1.01(a)(i)(i) or Section 6(a)(ii). The Holder shall select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering.

 

(v)     The Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If a Demand Registration involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter of the requested Demand Registration advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in the Demand Registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such underwritten offering and/or the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such underwritten offering, the Company shall include in such Demand Registration (A) first, all of the Warrant Shares requested to be included in such registration by the Holder, and (B) second, any other Registrable Securities the Company may permit to be included in such registration, allocated pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder.

 

 

(b)

Piggyback Registration.

 

(i)     Whenever the Company proposes to register any shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act (other than a registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145 of the Securities Act is applicable, or a Registration Statement on Form S-4, S-8 or any successor form thereto or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more stockholders of the Company and the form of Registration Statement to be used may be used for any registration of Warrant Shares (a "Piggyback Registration"), the Company shall give prompt written notice (in any event no later than twenty (20) days prior to the filing of such Registration Statement) to the Holder of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to Section 6(b)(ii) and Section 6(b)(iii), shall include in such registration all Warrant Shares with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion from the Holder within ten days after the Company's notice has been given to the Holder.

 

 
13

 

  

(ii)     If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company and the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Holder (if the Holder has elected to include Warrant Shares in such Piggyback Registration) in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering, the Company shall include in such registration (A) first, the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell; (B) second, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by the Holder; and (C) third, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by holders of Common Stock (other than Warrant Shares held by the Holder); provided, that in any event the Holder shall be entitled to register at least 35% of the securities to be included in any such registration.

 

(iii)     If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as an underwritten offering on behalf of one or more holders of Common Stock other than Warrant Shares, and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Warrant Shares and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering, the Company shall, subject to the proviso below, include in such registration (i) first, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by the Holder (on a fully diluted, as converted basis); and (ii) second, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by other holders of Common Stock, allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree; provided that, in the event of a registration resulting from a Merger Agreement Demand, the Company shall include in such registration, on a pro rata basis, (x) those shares of Common Stock (other than Warrant Shares) of the holders thereof requesting such Merger Agreement Demand, and (y) those Warrant Shares requested to be included in such registration by the Holder.

 

(iv)     If any Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company, the Company shall select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering.

 

 
14

 

  

(c)     Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Holder requests that any Warrant Shares be registered pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall as soon as practicable:

 

(i)     subject to Section 6(a)(i) and Section 6(a)(ii), prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Warrant Shares and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective;

 

(ii)     prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, post-effective amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for a period of not less than thirty (30) days, or if earlier, until all of such Warrant Shares have been disposed of and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such Registration Statement;

(iv)     notify the Holder, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such Registration Statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any Prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement has been filed;

 

(v)     furnish to the Holder such number of copies of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus) and any supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits and documents incorporated by reference therein) and such other documents as the Holder may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Warrant Shares;

 

(vi)     use its best efforts to register or qualify such Warrant Shares under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as any selling holder requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holder to consummate the disposition; provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business, subject itself to general taxation or consent to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to do so but for this Section 6(c)(vi);

 

(vii)     notify the Holder, at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such holder, the Company shall prepare a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Warrant Shares, such Prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

 

 
15

 

  

(viii)     make available for inspection by the Holder, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holder or any such underwriter (collectively, the "Inspectors"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the "Records"), and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration Statement;

 

(ix)     use its best efforts to cause such Warrant Shares to be listed on each securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or, if the Common Stock is not then listed, on a national securities exchange selected by the Holder;

 

(x)     in connection with an underwritten offering, enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting and lock-up agreements in customary form) and take all such other customary actions as the Holder or the managing underwriter of such offering request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Warrant Shares (including, without limitation, making appropriate officers of the Company available to participate in "road show" and other customary marketing activities (including one-on-one meetings with prospective purchasers of the Warrant Shares);

 

(xi)     otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and make available to its stockholders an earnings statement (in a form that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder) no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the 12-month period beginning with the first day of the Company's first full fiscal quarter after the effective date of such Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall cover said 12-month period, and which requirement will be deemed to be satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate information on Forms 10-Q, 10-K and 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act;

 

(xii)     furnish to the Holder and each underwriter, if any, with (i) a legal opinion of the Company's outside counsel, dated the effective date of such Registration Statement (and, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), in form and substance as is customarily given in opinions of the Company's counsel to underwriters in underwritten public offerings; and (ii) a "comfort" letter signed by the Company's independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given in accountants' letters to underwriters in underwritten public offerings;

25.     Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of New York.

 

26.     Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts of the State of New York, in either case sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.

(a)     Exercise Procedure. This Warrant may be exercised from time to time on any Business Day during the Exercise Period, for all or any part of the unexercised Warrant Shares, upon:

 

(i)     surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its then principal executive offices (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction), together with a Subscription Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a "Subscription Agreement"), duly completed (including specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased) and executed; and

 

(ii)     payment to the Company of the Aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with Section Section 1.01(a)(ii).

 

(b)     Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price. Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made, at the option of the Holder as expressed in the Subscription Agreement, by the following methods:

 

(i)     by delivery to the Company of a certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of such Aggregate Exercise Price;

 

(ii)     by instructing the Company to withhold a number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price;

 

(iii)     by surrendering to the Company (x) Warrant Shares previously acquired by the Holder with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price and/or (y) other securities or debt obligations of the Company (including loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement) having a value as of the Exercise Date equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price (which value in the case of debt securities or obligations shall be the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, in the case of preferred stock shall be the liquidation value thereof plus accumulated and unpaid dividends and in the case of shares of Common Stock shall be the Fair Market Value thereof); or

 

(iv)     any combination of the foregoing;

 

 
5

 

  

provided; however; that the Holder may only use the Cashless Method to pay the Exercise Price for up to (but not in excess of) [_________] Warrant Shares (subject to proportionate adjustment for any stock split, dividend, distribution, subdivision, recapitalization or combination).

 

In the event of any withholding of Warrant Shares or surrender of other equity securities pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above where the number of shares whose value is equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price is not a whole number, the number of shares withheld by or surrendered to the Company shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share and the Company shall make a cash payment to the Holder (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) based on the incremental fraction of a share being so withheld by or surrendered to the Company in an amount equal to the product of (x) such incremental fraction of a share being so withheld or surrendered multiplied by (y) in the case of Common Stock, the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share as of the Exercise Date, and, in all other cases, the value thereof as of the Exercise Date determined in accordance with clause (iii)(y) above.

 

(c)     Delivery of Stock Certificates. Upon receipt by the Company of the Subscription Agreement, surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (in accordance with Section Section 1.01(a) hereof), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter, execute (or cause to be executed) and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as provided in Section Section 1.01(c) hereof. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as the exercising Holder shall reasonably request in the Subscription Agreement and shall be registered in the name of the Holder or, subject to compliance with Section 0 below, such other Person's name as shall be designated in the Subscription Agreement. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates of Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares for all purposes, as of the Exercise Date.

 

(d)     Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional Warrant Share upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any fraction of a Warrant Share that the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay to such Holder an amount in cash (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) equal to the product of (i) such fraction multiplied by (ii) the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share on the Exercise Date.

 

(e)     Acknowledgement; Partial Exercise. Unless the purchase rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares being issued in accordance with Section Section 1.01(c) hereof, deliver to the Holder within a reasonable time an acknowledgement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, an “Acknowledgement”) indicating the number of Warrant Shares which remain issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, if any.

(f)     Valid Issuance of Warrant and Warrant Shares; Payment of Taxes. With respect to the exercise of this Warrant, the Company hereby represents, covenants and agrees:

 

(i)     This Warrant is, and any Warrant issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant shall be, upon issuance, duly authorized and validly issued.

 

(ii)     All Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be, upon issuance, and the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that such Warrant Shares are, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, issued without violation of any preemptive or similar rights of any stockholder of the Company and free and clear of all taxes, liens and charges.

 

(iii)     The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all such Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares may be listed at the time of such exercise (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).

 

(iv)     Without in any way limiting Section 6 hereof, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Warrant Shares, immediately upon such exercise, to be listed on any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares are listed at the time of such exercise.

 

(v)     The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed with respect to any applicable withholding or the issuance or delivery of the Warrant Shares to any Person other than the Holder, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

(g)     Conditional Exercise. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a public offering or a sale of the Company (pursuant to a merger, sale of stock, or otherwise), such exercise may at the election of the Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

 

 
7

 

  

(h)     Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and the par value per Warrant Share shall at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Exercise Price. The Company shall not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

(i)     No “Bad Actor” Disqualification. The Company has exercised reasonable care, in accordance with Commission rules and guidance, to determine whether any Covered Person (as defined below) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii) under the Securities Act (“Disqualification Events”). To the Company’s knowledge, no Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The Company has complied, to the extent applicable, with all disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) under the Securities Act. “Covered Persons” are those persons specified in Rule 506(d)(1) under the Securities Act, including the Company, any predecessor or affiliate of the Company, any director, executive officer, other officer participating in the offering, general partner or managing member of the Company, any beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power, any promoter (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) connected with the Company in any capacity at the time of the exercise of this Warrant, and any person that has been or will be paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of purchasers in connection with the sale of any securities of the Company (a “Solicitor”), any general partner or managing member of any Solicitor, and any director, executive officer or other officer participating in the offering of any Solicitor or general partner or managing member of any such Solicitor.

 

4.     Adjustment to Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 0.

 

(a)     Dividends and Distributions of Non-Company Securities. If, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, the Company makes or declares, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or any other distribution payable in securities of the Company (other than a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock or Options or Convertible Securities in each case in respect of Common Stock), cash or other property, then, and in each such event, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise of the Warrant, in addition to the number of Warrant Shares receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of the Company, cash or other property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrant been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Exercise Date, retained such securities, cash or other property receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 0 with respect to the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such provision shall be made if the Holder receives, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities, cash or other property as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.

 

 
8

 

  

(b)     Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Dividend, Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, (i) pay a dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Company payable in shares of Common Stock or in Options or Convertible Securities (in each case in respect of Common Stock), or (ii) subdivide (by any stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution or subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 4(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

(c)     Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation or Merger. In the event of any (i) capital reorganization of the Company, (ii) reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), (iii) consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, (iv) sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person, (v) Change of Control (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or (vi) other similar transaction, in each case which entitles the holders of Common Stock to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) cash, stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, each Warrant shall, immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the amount of cash or the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets of the Company or of the successor Person resulting from such transaction to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction and acquired the applicable number of Warrant Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant); and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder) shall be made with respect to the Holder's rights under this Warrant to insure that the provisions of this Section 0 hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to this Warrant in relation to any cash, shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant (including, in the case of any consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction in which the successor or purchasing Person is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment in the Exercise Price to the value per share for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction, and a corresponding immediate adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise, if the value so reflected is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction). The provisions of this Section 4(c) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, Changes of Control or similar transactions. The Company shall not effect any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, Change of Control or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and satisfactory to the Holder, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4(c), the Holder shall have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights contained in Section 0 instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 4(c) with respect to this Warrant.

 

 
9

 

  

(d)     Certain Events. If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 0 but not expressly provided for by such provisions occurs, then the Board shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 0; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(d) shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 0.

 

(e)     Certificate as to Adjustment.

 

(i)     As promptly as reasonably practicable following any adjustment of the Exercise Price, but in any event not later than three (3) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall furnish to the Holder a certificate of an executive officer setting forth in reasonable detail such adjustment and the facts upon which it is based and certifying the calculation thereof.

 

 
10

 

  

(ii)     As promptly as reasonably practicable following the receipt by the Company of a written request by the Holder, but in any event not later than three (3) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall furnish to the Holder a certificate of an executive officer certifying the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of Warrant Shares or the amount, if any, of other shares of stock, securities or assets then issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

 

(f)     Notices. In the event:

 

(i)     that the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, to vote at a meeting (or by written consent), to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other security; or

 

(ii)     of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person; or

 

(iii)     of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

 

then, and in each such case, the Company shall send or cause to be sent to the Holder at least ten (10) Business days prior to the applicable record date or the applicable expected effective date, as the case may be, for the event, a written notice specifying, as the case may be, (A) the record date for such dividend, distribution, meeting or consent or other right or action, and a description of such dividend, distribution or other right or action to be taken at such meeting or by written consent, or (B) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is proposed to take place, and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken with respect to which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Warrant and the Warrant Shares.

 

5.     Purchase Rights. In addition to (and not in limitation or in lieu of) any adjustments pursuant to Section 0 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any shares of Common Stock, Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of Common Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then the Holder shall be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder would have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

 
11

 

  

6.     Registration Rights.

 

(a)     Demand Registration.

 

(i)     At any time after the one hundred eightieth (180) day following the Original Issue Date, the Holder may request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Warrant Shares on Form S-1 or any successor form thereto (each a "Long-Form Registration"). Each request for a Long-Form Registration shall specify the approximate number of Warrant Shares required to be registered. Upon receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than five days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to all other holders of Registrable Securities having “piggy back” rights or equivalent, if any, who shall then have ten days from the date such notice is given to notify the Company in writing of their desire to be included in such registration. The Company shall cause a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (or any successor form) to be filed within 30 days after the date on which the initial request is given and shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter. The Company shall not be required to effect a Long-Form Registration more than five times by the Holder; provided, that a Registration Statement shall not count as a Long-Form Registration requested under this Section Section 1.01(a)(i) unless and until it has become effective and the Holder is able to register and sell at least 35% of the Warrant Shares requested to be included in such registration.

 

(ii)     The Company shall use its best efforts to qualify and remain qualified to register securities under the Securities Act pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any successor form thereto. At such time as the Company shall have qualified for the use of a Registration Statement on Form S-3, the Holder shall have the right to request an unlimited number of registrations of Warrant Shares on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration (each a "Short-Form Registration" and, together with each Long-Form Registration, a "Demand Registration"). Each request for a Short-Form Registration shall specify the approximate number of Warrant Shares requested to be registered. Upon receipt of any such request, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than five days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to all other holders of Registrable Securities having “piggy back” rights or equivalent, if any, who shall then have ten days from the date such notice is given to notify the Company in writing of their desire to be included in such registration. The Company shall cause a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form) to be filed within 30 days after the date on which the initial request is given and shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

(iii)     The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Long-Form Registration within 90 days after the effective date of a previous Long-Form Registration or a previous Piggyback Registration in which the Holder was permitted to register, and actually sold, at least 35% of the shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein. The Company may postpone for up to 60 days the filing or effectiveness of a Registration Statement for a Demand Registration if the Company's Board determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such Demand Registration would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate organization or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act. The Company may delay a Demand Registration hereunder only two times in any period of twelve consecutive months.

 

 
12

 

  

(iv)     If the Holder elects to distribute Warrant Shares covered by its request in an underwritten offering, it shall so advise the Company as a part of its request made pursuant to Section Section 1.01(a)(i) or Section 6(a)(ii). The Holder shall select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering.

 

(v)     The Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If a Demand Registration involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter of the requested Demand Registration advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in the Demand Registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such underwritten offering and/or the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such underwritten offering, the Company shall include in such Demand Registration (A) first, all of the Warrant Shares requested to be included in such registration by the Holder, and (B) second, any other Registrable Securities the Company may permit to be included in such registration, allocated pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder.

 

(b)     Piggyback Registration.

 

(i)     Whenever the Company proposes to register any shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act (other than a registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145 of the Securities Act is applicable, or a Registration Statement on Form S-4, S-8 or any successor form thereto or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more stockholders of the Company and the form of Registration Statement to be used may be used for any registration of Warrant Shares (a "Piggyback Registration"), the Company shall give prompt written notice (in any event no later than twenty (20) days prior to the filing of such Registration Statement) to the Holder of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to Section 6(b)(ii) and Section 6(b)(iii), shall include in such registration all Warrant Shares with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion from the Holder within ten days after the Company's notice has been given to the Holder.

 

 
13

 

  

(ii)     If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company and the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Holder (if the Holder has elected to include Warrant Shares in such Piggyback Registration) in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering, the Company shall include in such registration (A) first, the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell; (B) second, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by the Holder; and (C) third, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by holders of Common Stock (other than Warrant Shares held by the Holder); provided, that in any event the Holder shall be entitled to register at least 35% of the securities to be included in any such registration.

 

(iii)     If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as an underwritten offering on behalf of one or more holders of Common Stock other than Warrant Shares, and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Warrant Shares and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering, the Company shall, subject to the proviso below, include in such registration (i) first, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by the Holder (on a fully diluted, as converted basis); and (ii) second, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by other holders of Common Stock, allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree; provided that, in the event of a registration resulting from a Merger Agreement Demand, the Company shall include in such registration, on a pro rata basis, (x) those shares of Common Stock (other than Warrant Shares) of the holders thereof requesting such Merger Agreement Demand, and (y) those Warrant Shares requested to be included in such registration by the Holder.

 

(iv)     If any Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company, the Company shall select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering.

 

(c)     Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Holder requests that any Warrant Shares be registered pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall as soon as practicable:

 

 
14

 

  

(i)     subject to Section 6(a)(i) and Section 6(a)(ii), prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Warrant Shares and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective;

 

(ii)     prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, post-effective amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for a period of not less than thirty (30) days, or if earlier, until all of such Warrant Shares have been disposed of and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such Registration Statement;

 

(iii)     at least fifteen (15) Business Days before filing such Registration Statement, Prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto, furnish to counsel of the Holder copies of such documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to the review, comment and approval of such counsel;

 

(iv)     notify the Holder, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such Registration Statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any Prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement has been filed;

 

(v)     furnish to the Holder such number of copies of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus) and any supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits and documents incorporated by reference therein) and such other documents as the Holder may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Warrant Shares;

 

(vi)     use its best efforts to register or qualify such Warrant Shares under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as any selling holder requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holder to consummate the disposition; provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business, subject itself to general taxation or consent to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to do so but for this Section 6(c)(vi);

 

(vii)     notify the Holder, at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such holder, the Company shall prepare a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Warrant Shares, such Prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

 

 
15

 

  

(viii)     make available for inspection by the Holder, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holder or any such underwriter (collectively, the "Inspectors"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the "Records"), and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration Statement;

 

(ix)     use its best efforts to cause such Warrant Shares to be listed on each securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or, if the Common Stock is not then listed, on a national securities exchange selected by the Holder;

 

(x)     in connection with an underwritten offering, enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting and lock-up agreements in customary form) and take all such other customary actions as the Holder or the managing underwriter of such offering request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Warrant Shares (including, without limitation, making appropriate officers of the Company available to participate in "road show" and other customary marketing activities (including one-on-one meetings with prospective purchasers of the Warrant Shares);

7.     Transfer of Warrant. Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend endorsed hereon, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are freely transferable, in whole or in part, by the Holder without charge to the Holder, upon delivery to the Company of a written request for assignment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (each, an “Assignment”) by the Holder and surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its then principal executive offices, together with funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes described in Section 3(f)(v) in connection with the making of such transfer. If requested by the Company, the Holder will also provide an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the transfer or assignment is in compliance with (or is exempt from) applicable federal and state securities laws. Upon such compliance, surrender and delivery and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.

 

8.     Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder; Limitations on Liability. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein (including Section 4(a)), prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares to which the Holder is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of capital stock of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 0, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

9.     Replacement on Loss; Division and Combination.

 

(a)     Replacement of Warrant on Loss. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and upon delivery of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (it being understood that a written indemnification agreement or affidavit of loss of the Holder shall be a sufficient indemnity) and, in case of mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation to the Company, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu hereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and exercisable for an equivalent number of Warrant Shares as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed; provided, that, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be required if this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.

 

(b)     Division and Combination of Warrant. Subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of this Warrant as to any transfer or other assignment which may be involved in such division or combination, this Warrant may be divided or, following any such division of this Warrant, subsequently combined with other Warrants, upon the surrender of this Warrant or Warrants to the Company at its then principal executive offices, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the respective Holders or their agents or attorneys. Subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of this Warrant as to any transfer or assignment which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall at its own expense execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered in accordance with such notice. Such new Warrant or Warrants shall be of like tenor to the surrendered Warrant or Warrants and shall be exercisable in the aggregate for an equivalent number of Warrant Shares as the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered in accordance with such notice.

 

10.     No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or circumvent or seek to avoid or circumvent the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the Holder in order to protect the exercise rights of the Holder against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant.

 

11.     Compliance with the Securities Act. The Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this Section 0 and the restrictive legend requirements set forth on the face of this Warrant and further agrees that such Holder shall not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act. This Warrant and all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant (unless registered under the Securities Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

 

 
18

 

  

"THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR QUALIFIED UNDER ANY STATE OR FOREIGN SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED UNLESS (I) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING SUCH SHARES IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE ACT AND IS QUALIFIED UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FOREIGN LAW OR (II) THE TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE ACT AND THE QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FOREIGN LAW."

 

12.     Representations of the Holder. In connection with the issuance of this Warrant, the Holder specifically represents, as of the date hereof, to the Company by acceptance of this Warrant as follows:

 

(a)     The Holder is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Holder is acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof for investment for its own account and not with a current view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.

 

(b)     The Holder understands and acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that, under such laws and applicable regulations, such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In addition, the Holder represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

 

(c)     The Holder acknowledges that it can bear the economic and financial risk of its investment for an indefinite period, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Warrant and the Warrant Shares. The Holder has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Warrant and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company.

 

13.     Warrant Register. The Company shall keep and properly maintain at its principal executive offices books for the registration of the Warrant and any transfers thereof. The Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name the Warrant is registered on such register as the Holder thereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except any assignment, division, combination or other transfer of the Warrant effected in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

 

 
19

 

  

14.     Notices. All notices and other communications provided hereunder shall be in writing or by facsimile and addressed, delivered or transmitted, if to the Company or the Holder, to the applicable party at its address or facsimile number set forth on the signature pages hereto, or at such other address or facsimile number as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other party. Any notice, if mailed and properly addressed with postage prepaid or if properly addressed and sent by pre-paid courier service, shall be deemed given when received; any notice, if transmitted by facsimile, shall be deemed given when the confirmation of transmission thereof is received by the transmitter. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to the time of a day shall refer to New York City time.

 

15.     Cumulative Remedies. Except to the extent expressly provided in Section 0 to the contrary, the rights and remedies provided in this Warrant are cumulative and are not exclusive of, and are in addition to and not in substitution for, any other rights or remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise.

 

16.     Equitable Relief. Each of the Company and the Holder acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under this Warrant would give rise to irreparable harm to the other party hereto for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations, the other party hereto shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

17.     Finder’s Fee. Each party represents to the other party that it is not and will not be obligated for any finder’s fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Warrant. The Holder agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless the Company from any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which the Holder or any of its officers, employees or representatives is responsible. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Holder from any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which the Company or any of its officers, employees or representatives is responsible.

 

18.     Expenses; Indemnification.

 

(a)     The Company will reimburse the reasonable fees and expenses of the Holder, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, with respect to the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Warrant as provided in Section 11.3 of the Credit Agreement.

 

 
20

 

  

(b)     In further consideration of the Holder’s acquiring the Warrant hereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations hereunder, the Company will defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Holder and each other holder of the Warrant and all of their shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Warrant or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Warrant or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, or (iii) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Warrant or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, or (B) the status of the Holder or holder of the Warrant as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company will make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

 

19.     Entire Agreement. This Warrant constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Warrant with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter.

 

20.     Successor and Assigns. This Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of the Holder. Such successors and/or permitted assigns of the Holder shall be deemed to be a Holder for all purposes hereunder.

 

21.     No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Warrant is for the sole benefit of the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and, in the case of the Holder, permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Warrant.

 

22.     Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Warrant.

 

 
21

 

  

23.     Amendment and Modification; Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto. No waiver by the Company or the Holder of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Warrant shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

 

24.     Severability. If any term or provision of this Warrant is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Warrant or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

25.     Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of New York.

 

26.     Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts of the State of New York, in either case sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of process, summons, notice or other document by certified or registered mail to such party's address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or any proceeding in such courts and irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

 

27.     Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Warrant is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

28.     Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Warrant delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Warrant.

 

 
22

 

  

29.     No Strict Construction. This Warrant shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted.

Attached hereto, if and to the extent requested by the Company, is an opinion of counsel that the assignment is in compliance with or is exempt from, applicable federal and state securities laws. As provided in the Warrant, including but not limited to Section 7 of the Warrant, the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide whether such opinion is satisfactory, and Assignee and Holder agree to any reasonable delay in transfer caused by such evaluation.
