    WARRANT
      AGREEMENT

     

    This
      Warrant Agreement (this “Agreement”)
      is
      made and entered into as of April 5, 2006 between General Finance Corporation,
      a
      Delaware corporation, with offices at 260 S. Los Robles, Suite 217, Pasadena,
      California 91101 (“Company”),
      and
      Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, with
      offices at 17 Battery Place, New York, New York 10004 (“Warrant
      Agent”).

     

    WHEREAS,
      the Company has agreed to issue 583,333 Warrants (the “Insider
      Warrants”)
      in a
      private placement and proposes to engage in a public offering (“Public
      Offering”)
      of
      Units (“Units”)
      and,
      in connection therewith, has determined to issue and deliver up to
      (i) 8,625,000 Warrants (“Public
      Warrants”)
      to the
      public investors, and (ii) 750,000 Warrants to Morgan Joseph & Co. Inc.
      (“Morgan
      Joseph”)
      (the
“Representative’s
      Warrants”
and,
      together with the Insider Warrants and the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”),
      each
      of such Warrants evidencing the right of the holder thereof to purchase one
      share of the Company’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (“Common
      Stock”).

     

    WHEREAS,
      the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration
      Statement on Form S-1, No. 333-129830 (“Registration
      Statement”),
      for
      the registration, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Act”),
      of,
      among other securities, the Warrants and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise
      of the Warrants; and

     

    WHEREAS,
      the Company desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the Company, and
      the
      Warrant Agent is willing to so act, in connection with the issuance,
      registration, transfer, exchange, redemption and exercise of the Warrants;
      and

     

    WHEREAS,
      the Company desires to provide for the form and provisions of the Warrants,
      the
      terms upon which they shall be issued and exercised, and the respective rights,
      limitation of rights, and immunities of the Company, the Warrant Agent, and
      the
      holders of the Warrants; and

     

    WHEREAS,
      all acts and things have been done and performed which are necessary to make
      the
      Warrants, when executed on behalf of the Company and countersigned by or on
      behalf of the Warrant Agent, as provided herein, the valid, binding and legal
      obligations of the Company, and to authorize the execution and delivery of
      this
      Agreement.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the
      parties hereto agree as follows:

     

    1.  Appointment
      of Warrant Agent.
      The
      Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company for
      the Warrants, and the Warrant Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees
      to perform the same in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in
      this Agreement.

     

    2.  Warrants.

     

    2.1  Form
      of Warrant.
      Each
      Warrant shall be issued in registered form only, shall be in substantially
      the
      form of Exhibit A hereto, the provisions of which are incorporated herein
      and shall be signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the Chairman of
      the
      Board or Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, Secretary
      or Assistant Secretary of the Company and shall bear a facsimile of the
      Company’s seal, if any. In the event the person whose facsimile signature has
      been placed upon any Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in
      which
      such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant is issued, it may be issued
      with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date
      of
      issuance.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    2.2  Effect
      of Countersignature.
      Unless
      and until countersigned by the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Agreement, a
      Warrant shall be invalid and of no effect and may not be exercised by the holder
      thereof.

     

    2.3  Registration.

     

    2.3.1  Warrant
      Register.
      The
      Warrant Agent shall maintain books (“Warrant
      Register”),
      for
      the registration of original issuance and the registration of transfer of the
      Warrants. Upon the initial issuance of the Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall
      issue and register the Warrants in the names of the respective holders thereof
      in such denominations and otherwise in accordance with instructions delivered
      to
      the Warrant Agent by the Company.

     

    2.3.2  Registered
      Holder.
      Prior
      to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company
      and
      the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the person in whose name such Warrant
      shall
      be registered upon the Warrant Register (“registered
      holder”),
      as
      the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby
      (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on the Warrant
      Certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Warrant Agent), for
      the
      purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the
      Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the
      contrary.

     

    2.4  Detachability
      of Warrants.
      The
      securities comprising the Units will not be separately transferable until 90
      days after the date hereof unless the Representatives inform the Company of
      their decision to allow earlier separate trading, but in no event will the
      Representatives allow separate trading of the securities comprising the Units
      until the Company files a Current Report on Form 8-K which includes an
      audited balance sheet reflecting the receipt by the Company of the gross
      proceeds of the Public Offering including the proceeds received by the Company
      from the exercise of the Underwriter’s over-allotment option, if the
      over-allotment option is exercised prior to the filing of the
      Form 8-K.

     

    2.5  Warrants
      and Representative’s Warrants.
      The
      Representative’s Warrants shall have the same terms and be in the same form as
      the Public Warrants except with respect to the Warrant Price as set forth below
      in Section 3.1.

     

    3.  Terms
      and Exercise of Warrants.

     

    3.1  Warrant
      Price.
      Each
      Public Warrant and Insider Warrant shall, when countersigned by the Warrant
      Agent, entitle the registered holder thereof, subject to the provisions of
      such
      Public Warrant and Insider Warrant and of this Warrant Agreement, to purchase
      from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock stated therein, at the
      price of $6.00 per whole share, subject to the adjustments provided in
      Section 4 hereof and in the last sentence of this Section 3.1. Each of
      the Representative’s Warrants shall, when countersigned by the Warrant Agent,
      entitle the registered holder thereof, subject to the provisions of such
      Representative’s Warrants and of this Warrant Agreement, to purchase from the
      Company the number of shares of Common Stock stated therein, at the price of
      $7.20 per whole share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 4
      hereof. The term “Warrant
      Price”
as
      used
      in this Warrant Agreement refers to the price per share at which Common Stock
      may be purchased at the time a Warrant is exercised. The Company in its sole
      discretion may lower the Warrant Price at any time prior to the Expiration
      Date.

     

    3.2  Duration
      of Warrants.
      A
      Warrant may be exercised only during the period (“Exercise
      Period”):
      (a) commencing on the later of (i) the consummation by the Company of
      Business Combination (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation of the
      Company) and (ii) April 5, 2007, and (b) terminating at 5:00 p.m., Los
      Angeles time on the earlier to occur of (i) April 5, 2010 or (ii) the
      date fixed for redemption of the Warrants as provided in Section 6 of this
      Agreement (“Expiration
      Date”).
      Except with respect to the right to receive the Redemption Price (as set forth
      in Section 6 hereunder), each Warrant not exercised on or before the
      Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights
      in
      respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease at the close of business on
      the
      Expiration Date. The Company in its sole discretion may extend the duration
      of
      the Warrants by delaying the Expiration Date.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    3.3  Exercise
      of Warrants.
      

     

    3.3.1  Payment.
      Subject
      to the provisions of the Warrant and this Warrant Agreement, a Warrant, when
      countersigned by the Warrant Agent, may be exercised by the registered holder
      thereof by surrendering it, at the office of the Warrant Agent, or at the office
      of its successor as Warrant Agent, in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State
      of New York, with the subscription form, as set forth in the Warrant, duly
      executed, and by paying in full, in lawful money of the United States, in cash,
      good certified check or good bank draft payable to the order of the Company
      (or
      as otherwise agreed to by the Company), the Warrant Price for each full share
      of
      Common Stock as to which the Warrant is exercised and any and all applicable
      taxes due in connection with the exercise of the Warrant, the exchange of the
      Warrant for the Common Stock, and the issuance of the Common Stock.

     

    3.3.2  Issuance
      of Certificates.
      As soon
      as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds
      in payment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall issue to the registered
      holder of such Warrant a certificate or certificates for the number of full
      shares of Common Stock to which he is entitled, registered in such name or
      names
      as may be directed by him, her or it, and if such Warrant shall not have been
      exercised in full, a new countersigned Warrant for the number of shares as
      to
      which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any securities pursuant to the
      exercise of a Warrant unless a registration statement under the Act with respect
      to the Common Stock is effective. Warrants may not be exercised by, or
      securities issued to, any registered holder in any state in which such exercise
      would be unlawful.

     

    3.3.3  Valid
      Issuance.
      All
      shares of Common Stock issued upon the proper exercise of a Warrant in
      conformity with this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully paid and
      nonassessable.

     

    3.3.4  Date
      of Issuance.
      Each
      person in whose name any such certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued
      shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such
      shares on the date on which the Warrant was surrendered and payment of the
      Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such
      certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date
      when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall
      be
      deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the
      next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

     

    4.  Adjustments.

     

    4.1  Stock
      Dividends - Splits.
      If
      after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 below,
      the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock
      dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split up of shares of Common
      Stock, or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock
      dividend, split up or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock
      issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such
      increase in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

     

    4.2  Aggregation
      of Shares.
      If
      after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6, the
      number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation,
      combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Common Stock
      or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation,
      combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number
      of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be
      decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common
      Stock.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    4.3  Adjustments
      in Exercise Price.
      Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise
      of
      the Warrants is adjusted, as provided in Section 4.1 and 4.2 above, the
      Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such
      Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (a) the
      numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
      upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and
      (b) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
      so purchasable immediately thereafter.

     

    4.4  Replacement
      of Securities upon Reorganization, etc.
      In case
      of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common
      Stock (other than a change covered by Section 4.1 or 4.2 hereof or that
      solely affects the par value of such shares of Common Stock), or in the case
      of
      any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation
      (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
      corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization
      of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or
      conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property
      of
      the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with
      which the Company is dissolved, the Warrant holders shall thereafter have the
      right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions
      specified in the Warrants and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the
      Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise
      of
      the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other
      securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification,
      reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any
      such sale or transfer, that the Warrant holder would have received if such
      Warrant holder had exercised his, her or its Warrant(s) immediately prior to
      such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in shares
      of
      Common Stock covered by Section 4.1 or 4.2, then such adjustment shall be
      made pursuant to Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and this Section 4.4. The
      provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive
      reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other
      transfers.

     

    4.5  Notices
      of Changes in Warrant.
      Upon
      every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares issuable upon
      exercise of a Warrant, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the
      Warrant Agent, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from such
      adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares
      purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in
      reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such
      calculation is based. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in
      Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4, then, in any such event, the Company shall
      give written notice to each Warrant holder, at the last address set forth for
      such holder in the warrant register, of the record date or the effective date
      of
      the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect
      the legality or validity of such event.

     

    4.6  No
      Fractional Shares.
      Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant Agreement to the
      contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares upon exercise of
      Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4,
      the holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant,
      to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, upon such
      exercise, round up to the nearest whole number the number of the shares of
      Common Stock to be issued to the Warrant holder.

     

    4.7  Form
      of Warrant.
      The
      form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this
      Section 4, and Warrants issued after such adjustment may state the same
      Warrant Price and the same number of shares as is stated in the Warrants
      initially issued pursuant to this Agreement. However, the Company may at any
      time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of Warrant that the
      Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof,
      and
      any Warrant thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or
      substitution for an outstanding Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as
      so
      changed.

    5.  Transfer
      and Exchange of Warrants.

     

    5.1  Registration
      of Transfer.
      The
      Warrant Agent shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding
      Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of such Warrant for transfer,
      properly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed and accompanied by
      appropriate instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant
      representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the
      old
      Warrant shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. The Warrants so cancelled
      shall
      be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Company from time to time upon
      request.

     

    5.2  Procedure
      for Surrender of Warrants.
      Warrants may be surrendered to the Warrant Agent, together with a written
      request for exchange or transfer, and thereupon the Warrant Agent shall issue
      in
      exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the registered holder
      of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of
      Warrants; provided, however, that in the event that a Warrant surrendered for
      transfer bears a restrictive legend, the Warrant Agent shall not cancel such
      Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange therefor until the Warrant Agent
      has
      received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer may
      be
      made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive
      legend.

     

    5.3  Fractional
      Warrants.
      The
      Warrant Agent shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer
      or
      exchange which will result in the issuance of a warrant certificate for a
      fraction of a warrant.

     

    5.4  Service
      Charges.
      No
      service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of
      Warrants.

     

    5.5  Warrant
      Execution and Countersignature.
      The
      Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to countersign and to deliver, in accordance
      with the terms of this Agreement, the Warrants required to be issued pursuant
      to
      the provisions of this Section 5, and the Company, whenever required by the
      Warrant Agent, will supply the Warrant Agent with Warrants duly executed on
      behalf of the Company for such purpose.

     

    6.  Redemption.

     

    6.1  Redemption.
      Subject
      to Section 6.4 hereof, not less than all of the outstanding Warrants may be
      redeemed, at the option of the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period,
      at the office of the Warrant Agent, upon the notice referred to in
      Section 6.2, at the price of $.01 per Warrant (“Redemption
      Price”),
      provided that the last sales price of the Common Stock has been at least $11.50
      per share, on each of 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period ending
      on
      the third business day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given.
      The provisions of this Section 6.1 may not be modified, amended or deleted
      without the prior written consent of the Representatives.

     

    6.2  Date
      Fixed for, and Notice of, Redemption.
      If the
      Company shall elect to redeem all of the Warrants, the Company shall fix a
      date
      for the redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail,
      postage prepaid, by the Company not less than 30 days prior to the date fixed
      for redemption to the registered holders of the Warrants to be redeemed at
      their
      last addresses as they shall appear on the registration books. Any notice mailed
      in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
      given whether or not the registered holder received such notice.

     

    6.3  Exercise
      After Notice of Redemption.
      The
      Warrants may be exercised, for cash at any time after notice of redemption
      shall
      have been given by the Company pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof and prior to
      the time and date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, the
      record holder of the Warrants shall have no further rights except to receive,
      upon surrender of the Warrants, the Redemption Price.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    6.4  Outstanding
      Warrants Only.
      The
      Company understands that the redemption rights provided for by this
      Section 6 apply only to outstanding Warrants. To the extent a person holds
      rights to purchase Warrants, such purchase rights shall not be extinguished
      by
      redemption. However, once such purchase rights are exercised, the Company may
      redeem the Warrants issued upon such exercise provided that the criteria for
      redemption is met. The provisions of this Section 6.4 may not be modified,
      amended or deleted without the prior written consent of the
      Representatives.

     

    7.  Other
      Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.
      

     

    7.1  No
      Rights as Stockholder.
      A
      Warrant does not entitle the registered holder thereof to any of the rights
      of a
      stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive
      dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or
      to
      consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of
      stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other
      matter.

     

    7.2  Lost,
      Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants.
      If any
      Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company and the Warrant
      Agent may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their
      discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include
      the
      surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date
      as
      the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed. Any such new Warrant
      shall
      constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not
      the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any
      time
      enforceable by anyone.

     

    7.3  Reservation
      of Common Stock.
      The
      Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized
      but unissued shares of Common Stock that will be sufficient to permit the
      exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this
      Agreement.

     

    7.4  Registration
      of Common Stock.
      The
      Company agrees that prior to the commencement of the Exercise Period, it shall
      file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a post-effective amendment
      to
      the Registration Statement, or a new registration statement, for the
      registration, under the Act, of, and it shall take such action as is necessary
      to qualify for sale, in those states in which the Warrants were initially
      offered by the Company, the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.
      In either case, the Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to
      become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration
      statement until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions
      of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7.4 may not be modified,
      amended or deleted without the prior written consent of the
      Representatives.

      delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of Warrants, but the
      Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the
      Warrants or such shares.

      of Successor Warrant Agent.
      The
      Warrant Agent, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may resign its duties
      and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder after giving
      60 days’ notice in writing to the Company. If the office of the Warrant Agent
      becomes vacant by resignation or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company
      shall appoint in writing a successor Warrant Agent in place of the Warrant
      Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of
      30
      days after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity
      by
      the Warrant Agent or by the holder of the Warrant (who shall, with such notice,
      submit his Warrant for inspection by the Company), then the holder of any
      Warrant may apply to the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County
      of New York for the appointment of a successor Warrant Agent at the Company’s
      cost. Any successor Warrant Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such
      court, shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the
      State
      of New York, in good standing and having its principal office in the Borough
      of
      Manhattan, City and State of New York, and authorized under such laws to
      exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by
      federal or state authority. After appointment, any successor Warrant Agent
      shall
      be vested with all the authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties, and
      obligations of its predecessor Warrant Agent with like effect as if originally
      named as Warrant Agent hereunder, without any further act or deed; but if for
      any reason it becomes necessary or appropriate, the predecessor Warrant Agent
      shall execute and deliver, at the expense of the Company, an instrument
      transferring to such successor Warrant Agent all the authority, powers, and
      rights of such predecessor Warrant Agent hereunder; and upon request of any
      successor Warrant Agent the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge, and
      deliver any and all instruments in writing for more fully and effectually
      vesting in and confirming to such successor Warrant Agent all such authority,
      powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations.

      event a successor Warrant Agent shall be appointed, the Company shall give
      notice thereof to the predecessor Warrant Agent and the transfer agent for
      the
      Common Stock not later than the effective date of any such
      appointment.

     

    8.2.3  Merger
      or Consolidation of Warrant Agent.
      Any
      corporation into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or with which it may
      be
      consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation
      to
      which the Warrant Agent shall be a party shall be the successor Warrant Agent
      under this Agreement without any further act.

      for all expenditures that the Warrant Agent may reasonably incur in the
      execution of its duties hereunder.

     

    8.3.2  Further
      Assurances.
      The
      Company agrees to perform, execute, acknowledge, and deliver or cause to be
      performed, executed, acknowledged, and delivered all such further and other
      acts, instruments, and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant
      Agent for the carrying out or performing of the provisions of this

      be
      proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action
      hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be
      herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and
      established by a statement signed by the Chief Executive Officer, President,
      Chief Financial Officer or Chairman of the Board of the Company and delivered
      to
      the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may rely upon such statement for any action
      taken or suffered in good faith by it pursuant to the provisions of this
      Agreement.

     

    8.4.2  Indemnity.
      The
      Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own negligence, willful
      misconduct or bad faith. The Company agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent
      and
      save it harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments, costs
      and
      reasonable counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant Agent
      in
      the execution of this Agreement except as a result of the Warrant Agent’s
      negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith.
