This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, during normal business hours on any Business Day on or prior to the Expiration Date, by surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its Chief Executive Office, accompanied by a subscription (in the form attached to this Warrant as Annex I hereto) (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) duly executed by such Holder and accompanied by a counterpart signature page to the LLC Agreement (including the

1.2                               When Exercise Effective.  Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which this Warrant shall be deemed to have been surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 1.1, and, at such time, the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Warrant Units shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 1.3 shall be deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record thereof.

 

1.3                               Delivery of Certificates and New Warrant.  As soon as practicable after each exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, and in any event within seven (7) Business Days thereafter, the Company at its sole expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the applicable Holder or, subject to Section 10, as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:

(b)                                 in case any such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, dated the date hereof and exercise terms and conditions and covering (in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof) the number of Warrant Units equal (without giving effect to any subsequent adjustment thereof) to the number of Warrant Units set forth on the face of this Warrant (as adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof through the applicable exercise date) minus the number of such Class A Units designated by the applicable Holder upon such exercise.

 

2.                                      ADJUSTMENTS.

 

2.1                               General; Number of Warrant Units.

2.2                               Subdivision or Combination of Stock.  In case the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding Class A Units into a greater number of Class A Units, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Units at each Warrant Price proportionately increased pursuant to Section 3.1(e), and conversely, in case the outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A Units shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Units proportionately decreased pursuant to Section 3.1(e).

3.                                      DIVIDEND, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC.

 

3.1                               Adjustments for Dividends, Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets, Reorganizations, etc.  If after the date hereof (a) the Company shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, (b) the Company shall permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Company and the Company shall be the continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with such consolidation or merger, the Warrant Units and/or Class A Units shall be changed into or exchanged for Capital Stock of any other Person, any Other Security or any Other Property, (c) the Company shall Transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person, (d) the Company shall effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of the Warrant Units and/or its Class A Units, or (e) holders of Class A Units (or any shares of Capital Stock at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant), shall have otherwise received or become entitled to receive, Capital Stock, Other Securities or any Other Property by way of subdivision pursuant to Section 2.2, dividend, spinoff, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares pursuant to Section 2.2, or otherwise then, and in the case of each such transaction, proper provision shall be made so that upon the basis and the terms and in the manner provided in this Warrant, the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such transaction, shall be entitled to receive (at the aggregate Warrant Price in effect at the time of such consummation for all Warrant Units issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to such consummation), in lieu of the Warrant Units issuable upon such exercise prior to such consummation, the same amount of Capital Stock, Other Securities or Other Property to which such Holder would actually have been entitled as an equity holder upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior thereto, subject to adjustments (subsequent to such consummation) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in Sections 2, 3 and 4.

 

3.2                               Assumption of Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Company will not effect any of the transactions described in Section 3.1 unless, prior to the consummation thereof, each Person (other than the Company) that may be required to deliver any Capital Stock, Other Securities or Other Property upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory to, the Holder, (a) the obligations of the Company under this Warrant (and if the Company shall survive the consummation of such transaction, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release the Company from, any continuing obligations of the Company under this Warrant) and (b) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares of Capital Stock, Other Securities or Other Property as, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1, such Holder may be entitled to receive.

 

4.                                      OTHER DILUTIVE EVENTS.

 

4.1                               Review by Independent Investment Bank.  If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Sections 2 or 3 are not strictly applicable but with respect to which the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the Holders or the anti-dilution rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with its essential intent and principles, then, in each such case, at the request of such Holder, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent investment bankers of recognized national standing (which shall be completely independent of the Company and shall be satisfactory to the Holder), which shall give its opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in Sections 2 and 3, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights.  Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder and shall make the adjustments described therein.

 

4.2                               Additional Warrant Units.  The number of Warrant Units issuable hereunder (shall be increased by a number (the “Additional Warrant Units”) equal to [·]% of the maximum number of

 

3

 

Class A Units (or Capital Stock issued in exchange for Class A Units) issuable pursuant to any convertible debt financing consummated on or prior to the first anniversary of the date of this Warrant assuming such convertible debt was held up to maturity of the applicable loans, provided that the maximum conversion amount under such convertible debt financings to which this Section 4.2 shall apply shall be limited to $45,000,000 (plus all interest accruable thereon from the issue date through final maturity thereof) in the aggregate (and if more than one such convertible debt financing has been consummated that in the aggregate involve initial conversion amounts in excess of $45,000,000, the conversion amounts which are convertible into the greatest number of Class A Units (or Capital Stock issued in exchange for Class A Units) shall be taken into account).

 

5.                                      NO DILUTION OR IMPAIRMENT.  The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company shall not, by amendment of its Charter Documents or through any consolidation, merger, reorganization, transfer of assets, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against dilution or other impairment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue the Warrant Units upon exercise of this Warrant.

 

6.                                      REPORT AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.  In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the Warrant Units issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant (or issuable in connection with the conversion of the Warrant Units), the Company at its sole expense will promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and cause its Chief Financial Officer to verify such computation (other than any computation of the Fair Market Value, which shall be determined in accordance with the definition thereof) and, in connection with the preparation of the Company’s periodic financial statements, prepare a report setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof and the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of the Warrant Price as adjusted or readjusted on account thereof.  The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such report to each Holder and will, upon the written request at any time of any such Holder, furnish to such Holder a like report setting forth the number of units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and showing in reasonable detail how it was calculated.  The Company will also keep copies of all such reports at its Chief Executive Office and will cause the same to be available for inspection at such office during normal business hours by any Holder or any prospective purchaser of this Warrant designated by the Holder.  If, upon review of such computation and report, the Requisite Holders raise an objection to the adjustment as so calculated, the Company shall cause such computation and report to be prepared and distributed by independent certified public accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the regular auditors of the Company).

 

7.                                      NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION.

 

7.1                               Notices to Holders.  If at any time prior to the expiration date of this Warrant and prior to its exercise in full, any one or more of the following events shall occur:

(b)                                 any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the Capital Stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger involving the

(e)                                  (i) the entry into any agreement which, if consummated, would result in a Change in Control and (ii) the occurrence of a Change in Control;

(a)                                 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification.  The Company is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted and to enter into this Warrant.  The Company is duly qualified and in good standing to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the failure to be so qualified would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, business, prospects or operations.

 

(b)                                 Due Authorization; Binding Obligation; No Conflicts.  All action on the part of the Company, its officers, managers and members necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery of, and the performance of all obligations of the Company under this Warrant, and the authorization, issuance, reservation for issuance and delivery of all Class A Units issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant have been taken, and that this Warrant constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Warrant, and compliance herewith, and the issuance and delivery of this Warrant and, in connection with an exercise of this Warrant, the reservation, issuance and delivery of the Class A Units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, will not (i) result in any violation of and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of any of the terms of, or constitute a default under, (A) any provision of federal, state or foreign law to which the Company is subject including, without limitation, U.S.  federal and state securities laws and regulations, (B) any mortgage, indenture, agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation or other restriction to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound or (C) the Charter Documents of the Company, or (ii) result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the Company.

Neither the issuance of this Warrant nor the issuance of the Warrant Units upon exercise of this Warrant violates or conflicts with the Company’s Charter Documents or any agreement to which the Company is a party, or gives rise to any pre-emptive or similar rights which have not been entirely and properly waived, or any federal or state law.  Except as set forth on Exhibit A, there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights (including conversion or preemptive rights) or agreements for the purchase or acquisition from the Company of any Capital Stock of the Company or any member agreements, voting agreements or any other agreements among the members setting forth their rights and obligations with respect to the Capital Stock of the Company.

The agreements contained in this Section 14 shall terminate in their entirety and be of no further force or effect upon the consummation of the Company’s Initial Public Offering or the exercise, expiration, or other termination of this Warrant; provided, however, that (other Section 14.2(b)) shall not terminate upon consummation of the Company’s Initial Public Offering.

 

15.                               REMEDIES.  The Company stipulates that the remedies at law available to the Holder in the event of any default or threatened default by the Company in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are not and will not be adequate and that, to the fullest extent permitted, such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.

 

16.                               DUTIES AMONG HOLDERS; NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS MEMBER.  The Company and each Holder agrees that no other Holder will by virtue of this Agreement be under any fiduciary or other duty to give or withhold any consent or approval under this Agreement or to take any

 

14

 

other action or omit to take any action under this Agreement, and that each other Holder may act or refrain from acting under this Agreement as such other Holder may, in its discretion, elect.  Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any obligation on such Holder to purchase any securities or as imposing any liabilities on such Holder as a member of the Company, whether such obligation or liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.  Except for the information rights set forth in Section 14, this Warrant does not, by itself, confer upon Holder any right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a member of the Company, as such, in respect of any matters whatsoever, or any other rights or liabilities as a member of the Company, prior to the exercise hereof as hereinbefore provided.

 

17.                               NO EFFECT ON LENDER RELATIONSHIP.  The Company acknowledges and agree that, notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, nothing contained in this Warrant shall affect, limit or impair the rights and remedies of any Holder or any of its Affiliates (a) in its or their capacity as a lender or as agent for lenders to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to any agreement under which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has borrowed money or (b) in its or their capacity as a lender or as agent for lenders to any other Person who has borrowed money.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such Person, in exercising its rights as a lender, including making its decision on whether to foreclose on any collateral security, will have no duty to consider (x) its or any of its Affiliates’ status as a Holder, (y) the interests of the Company or its Subsidiaries or (z) any duty it may have to any other Holders or any members of the Company, except as may be required under the applicable loan documents or by commercial law applicable to creditors generally.  No consent, approval, vote or other action taken or required to be taken by any Holder in such capacity shall in any way impact, affect or alter the rights and remedies of the purchaser or any of its affiliates as a lender or agent for lenders.

 

18.                               NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS.  Except as set forth in Section 14.3(b), the Company and the Member Party (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that none of the members of the Company (including the Member Party), and no other Person, shall have any right to purchase any Capital Stock of the Company (including pursuant to Section 6.2 of the LLC Agreement) as a result of (a) the issuance of the Warrants or (b) any issuance of any Warrant Units.

 

19.                               NOTICES.  Any notice or other communication in connection with this Warrant shall be deemed to be delivered if in writing (or, in the form of a fax, telex or telecopy) addressed as hereinafter provided and if either (x) actually delivered at said address (evidenced in the case of a fax or telex by receipt of the correct answerback or electronic confirmation of transmission) or (y) in the case of a letter, three (3) Business Days shall have elapsed after the same shall have been deposited in the United States mails, postage prepaid and registered or certified; (a) if to any Holder of any Warrant, at the registered address of such Holder as set forth in the register kept at the Chief Executive Office; or (b) if to the Company, to the attention of its Chief Executive Officer or President at its Chief Executive Office; provided, however, that the exercise of any Warrant shall be effective only in the manner provided in Section 1.

 

20.                               MISCELLANEOUS.  This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Holder.  This Warrant shall be construed, interpreted, and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to doctrines relating to conflicts of laws.  The section headings in this Warrant are for purposes of convenience only and shall not constitute a part hereof.  This Warrant may be executed in one or more counterparts (which may be effectively delivered by facsimile or other electronic means), each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together, shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.
