HUDSON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Warrant for the Purchase of Shares of
Common Stock
_______ Shares
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, HUDSON TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a New York corporation (the
"Company"), hereby certifies that [___________] or registered assigns (the
"Holder") is entitled to purchase from the Company, subject to the provisions of
this Warrant (the "Warrant"), at any time on or after ___________, 200_ (the
"Initial Exercise Date") [insert the date which is the earlier of (i) the first
anniversary of the date of issuance of Holder's 10% Subordinated Convertible
Promissory Note ("Convertible Note") and (ii) the consummation of an Equity
Offering (as defined in the Company's proxy statement dated November 20, 2002)
by the Company], and prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on or prior to
_________, 200_ (the "Termination Date") [the date which is the fifth
anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date], ____________________ (________) fully
paid and non-assessable shares of the Common Stock, $.01 par value, of the
Company ("Common Stock") [equal to 10% of the number of shares of Common Stock
into which the Holder's Convertible Note was convertible on its issue date], at
an initial exercise price of $[____] [equal to 110% of the lesser of the
conversion rate of the Holder's Convertible Note (i) as of its issue date, or
(ii) as of the date this Warrant is issued] per share of Common Stock (the
"Initial Per Share Exercise Price"). The number of shares of Common Stock to be
received upon exercise of this Warrant and the price to be paid for each share
of Common Stock are subject to possible adjustment from time to time as
hereinafter set forth. The shares of Common Stock or other securities or
property deliverable upon such exercise as adjusted from time to time is
hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Warrant Shares." The exercise price of
a share of Common Stock in effect at any time and as adjusted from time to time
is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Per Share Exercise Price." The Per
Share Exercise Price is subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.
Exercise of Warrant.
This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part, at any time by its holder
commencing on the Initial Exercise Date and prior to the Termination Date by
presentation and surrender of this Warrant, together with the duly executed
subscription form and representations and warranties attached at the end hereof,
at the address set forth in Subsection 7(a) hereof, together with payment, by
certified or official bank check or wire transfer payable to the order of the
Company, of the product of (x) the Per Share Exercise Price multiplied by (y)
the number of shares of Common Stock subject to (1) this Warrant or (2) the
proportionate part thereof if exercised in part.
If this Warrant is exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon presentation
of this Warrant upon such exercise, execute and deliver (along with the
certificate for the Warrant Shares purchased) a new Warrant evidencing the
rights of the Holder hereof to purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares
purchasable hereunder upon the same terms and conditions as herein set forth.
Upon proper exercise of this Warrant, the Company promptly shall deliver
certificates for the Warrant Shares to the Holder duly legended as authorized by
the subscription form. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant; provided that the Company
shall pay to the holder of the Warrant cash in lieu of such fractional shares.
Reservation of Warrant Shares; Fully Paid Shares; Taxes.
The Company hereby represents that it has, and until expiration of this Warrant
agrees that it shall, reserve for issuance or delivery upon exercise of this
Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be required for issuance
and/or delivery upon exercise of this Warrant in full, and agrees that all
Warrant Shares so issued and/or delivered will be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable, and further agrees to pay all taxes and charges (other than
income taxes) that may be imposed upon such issuance and/or delivery. The
Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in
respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Stock (or
other securities or assets) in a name other than that in which this Warrant is
registered, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the
person requesting such issue has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or
has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid
or need not be paid.
Protection Against Dilution.
Except with respect to the securities set forth in paragraph (b) below, in case
the Company shall at any time after the date hereof issue or sell any shares of
Common Stock, including shares held in the Company's treasury, or shall issue
any options, rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Common Stock or other
equity or debt securities exercisable into or exchangeable for shares of Common
Stock (each, an "Additional Issuance"), for a consideration per share less than
the Per Share Exercise Price then in effect, the Per Share Exercise Price shall
be adjusted immediately thereafter such that it shall equal the consideration
per share received by the Company for the securities issued in such Additional
Issuance. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an Additional
Issuance is made for consideration per share below the Per Share Exercise Price
then in effect.
The adjustment of the Per Share Exercise Price set forth in paragraph (a) above
shall not apply to options granted by the Company pursuant to
stockholder-approved option plans of the Company nor to the issuance of Common
Stock upon exercise of such options or upon the exercise of options, warrants or
other securities exercisable for or exchangeable into Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the date of this Warrant or the conversion of convertible
debt of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the date of this Warrant.
In case the Company shall hereafter (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution on
its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or (iii) combine its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares (each of (i)
through (iii) an "Action"), then the Per Share Exercise Price shall be adjusted
to be equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Action
and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately following such Action, multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Exercise
Price immediately prior to such Action. An adjustment made pursuant to this
Subsection 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the
case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after
the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or
reclassification.
Whenever the Per Share Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to subsection 3(a),
the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon payment of the adjusted Per Share
Exercise Price shall be adjusted to be equal to the product of the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon payment of the adjusted Per Share Exercise Price
immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the Per Share Exercise Price payable immediately prior to such
adjustment and the denominator which shall be the Per Share Exercise Price
payable immediately after such adjustment.
In the event of any capital reorganization or reclassification, or any
consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party other than a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is the continuing corporation, or in case of
any sale or conveyance to another entity of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Holder of this Warrant shall have
the right thereafter to receive on the exercise of this Warrant the kind and
amount of securities, cash or other property which the Holder would have owned
or have been entitled to receive immediately after such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, sale or conveyance
had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the effective date of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
sale or conveyance and in any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustment
shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this Section 3
with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of this
Warrant to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 3 shall
thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be,
in relation to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter
deliverable on the exercise of this Warrant. The above provisions of this
Subsection 3(e) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, statutory exchanges, sales or
conveyances. The issuer of any shares of stock or other securities or property
thereafter deliverable on the exercise of this Warrant shall be responsible for
all of the agreements and obligations of the Company hereunder. A
sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company for a
consideration consisting primarily of securities shall be deemed a consolidation
or merger for the foregoing purposes.
Whenever the Per Share Exercise Price is adjusted as provided in this Section 3
and upon any modification of the rights of a Holder of Warrants in accordance
with this Section 3, the Chief Financial Officer, or equivalent officer, of the
Company shall prepare a certificate setting forth the Per Share Exercise Price
and the number of Warrant Shares after such adjustment or the effect of such
modification, a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment or
modification and the manner of computing the same and cause copies of such
certificate to be mailed to the Holder.
Limited Transferability.
This Warrant may not be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated by the
Holder except in compliance with the provisions of the Act and the applicable
state securities "blue sky" laws, and is so transferable only upon the books of
the Company which it shall cause to be maintained for such purpose. The Company
may treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as he or it appears on the
Company's books at any time as the Holder for all purposes. The Company shall
permit any Holder of a Warrant or his duly authorized attorney, upon written
request during ordinary business hours, to inspect and copy or make extracts
from its books showing the registered holders of Warrants. All Warrants issued
upon the transfer or assignment of this Warrant will be dated the same date as
this Warrant, and all rights of the holder thereof shall be identical to those
of the Holder.
Loss, etc., of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, of indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and, if requested by the Company, of a
bond reasonably satisfactory to the Company, if lost, stolen or destroyed, and
upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company shall
execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like date, tenor and
denomination.
Status of Holder. This Warrant does not confer upon the Holder any right to vote
or to consent to or receive notice as a stockholder of the Company, as such, in
respect of any matters whatsoever, or any other rights or liabilities as a
stockholder, prior to the exercise hereof.
