"Company"), hereby certifies that, for value received, or its registered assigns
("Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from
the Company a total of shares of common stock, $.10 par value per share (the
"Common Stock"), of the Company (each such share, a "Warrant Share" and all such

adjusted from time to time as provided in Section 9, the "Exercise Price"), at
any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof and through and
including July 31, 2005 (the "Expiration Date"), and subject to the following
terms and conditions:
1. Registration of Warrant. The Company shall register this
Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the
"Warrant Register"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time.
The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the
absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution
to the Holder, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected
by notice to the contrary except in compliance with Section 2 hereof.
<PAGE>
2. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges.
(a) The Company shall register the transfer
of any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this
Warrant, with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed,
to the Company at the office specified in or pursuant to Section 13. Upon any
such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in
substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a "New Warrant"),
evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the
transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant
not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The
acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the
acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder
of a Warrant.
(b) This Warrant is exchangeable upon the
surrender hereof by the Holder to the office of the Company specified in or
pursuant to Section 13 for one or more New Warrants, evidencing in the aggregate
the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased
hereunder. Any such New Warrant will be dated the date of such exchange.
3. Duration, Exercise and Redemption of Warrants.
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable by the
registered Holder on any business day before 5:30 P.M., New York City time, at
any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof to and including the
Expiration Date. At 5:30 P.M., New York City time on the Expiration Date, the
portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and
of no value.
(b) Subject to Sections 2(b) and 10, upon
surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto
duly completed and signed, to the Company at its address for notice set forth in
Section 13, and upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of
Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, in the manner
provided hereunder, all as specified by the Holder in the Form of Election to
Purchase, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than 5 Trading Days
(as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 31, 2000 after the
Date of Exercise (as defined herein) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be
delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names
as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon
such exercise, free of restrictive legends except (i) either in the event that a
registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the
Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective or the Warrant
Shares are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), or (ii) if this Warrant shall have been issued pursuant to a written
agreement between the original Holder and the Company, as required by such
agreement. Any person so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares
shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the
Date of Exercise of this Warrant.
2
<PAGE>
A "Date of Exercise" means the date on which the
Company shall have received (i) this Warrant (or any New
Warrant, as applicable), with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto
(or attached to such New Warrant) appropriately completed and duly signed, and
(ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated
by the holder hereof to be purchased.
(c) This Warrant shall be exercisable, either
in its entirety or, from time to time, for a portion of the number of Warrant
Shares. If less than all of the Warrant Shares which may be purchased under this
Warrant are exercised at any time, the Company shall issue or cause to be
issued, at its expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the
remaining number of Warrant Shares for which no exercise has been evidenced by
this Warrant.
(d) Commencing at any time after the date the
Securities and Exchange Commission declares effective the registration statement
covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the Holder as selling
stockholder thereunder, but no earlier than July 31, 2002 if (i) the average
closing bid price of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (or such
other national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or
quoted for trading) for any 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive Trading Day
period exceeds 200% of the Exercise Price (a "Trigger Period"), and (ii) during
the Trigger Period and up to and including the Redemption Date (as defined
herein), the Warrant Shares are either registered for resale pursuant to an
effective registration statement naming the Holder as a selling stockholder
thereunder or freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act, as determined by counsel to the
Company pursuant to a written opinion letter addressed and in form and substance
acceptable to the Holder and the transfer agent for the Common Stock, then the
Company shall have the right, upon ten (10) days' notice to the Holder given not
later than five (5) Trading Days after the conclusion of any such Trigger Period
(the "Redemption Notice"), to redeem 100% of the total Warrant Shares issuable
under this Warrant as such number may be adjusted, at a price of $.01 per
Warrant Share (the "Redemption Price"), on the date set forth in the Redemption
Notice, but in no event earlier than ten (10) days following the date of the
receipt by the Holder of the Redemption Notice (the "Redemption Date"). The
Holder may exercise this Warrant at any time prior to the Redemption Date. Any
portion of this Warrant not exercised by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the
Redemption Date shall no longer be exercisable and shall be returned to the
Company, and the Company, upon its receipt of the unexercised portion of this
Warrant, shall issue therefor in full and complete satisfaction of its
obligations under such remaining portion of this Warrant to the Holder an amount
equal to the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable hereunder multiplied
by the Redemption Price. The Redemption Price shall be mailed to such Holder at
its address of record, and the Warrant shall be canceled.
4. Registration Rights. The Warrant Shares issuable pursuant
to the exercise of this Warrant shall be entitled to the registration rights set
forth in the Registration
3
<PAGE>
Rights Agreement dated July 31, 2000 to which the Company and the original
Holder are parties (the "Registration Rights Agreement").
5. [Intentionally left blank]
6. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary
stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of
this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay
any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other
than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax
liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or
receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.
7. Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost,
stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange
and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and
substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and
indemnity, if requested, satisfactory to it. Applicants for a New Warrant under
such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and
procedures and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe.
8. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that
it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its
authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to
issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the
number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the
exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other actual
contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account
the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all
Warrant Shares that shall be so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance
and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms
hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.
9. Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment
from time to time as set forth in this Section. Upon each such adjustment of the
Exercise Price pursuant to this Section, the Holder shall thereafter prior to
the Expiration Date be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting
from such adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from
such adjustment. Any adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares shall apply only
to the Warrant Shares for which this Warrant has not been exercised.
(a) If the Company, at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding shall, (i) pay a stock dividend to all holders of its
Common Stock or otherwise make a
4
<PAGE>
distribution or distributions of Common Stock to holders of its Common Stock,
(ii) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of
shares, or (iii) combine outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which
the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury
shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall
become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of
stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become
effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or
combination, and shall apply to successive subdivisions and combinations.
(b) In case of any reclassification of the
Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock
is converted into other securities, cash or property, then the Holder shall have
the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant only into the shares of stock and
other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by
holders of Common Stock following such reclassification or share exchange, and
the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be entitled by reason of such
event to receive such amount of securities, cash or property equal to the amount
of Warrant Shares such Holder would have been entitled to had such Holder
exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or share
exchange. This provision shall apply to successive reclassifications or share
exchanges.
(c) [Intentionally left blank]
(d) In case of any merger or consolidation of
the Company with or into another Person (as defined in the Securities Purchase
Agreement dated July 31, 2000) or sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter in the case of
such merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant, the same number and
kind of shares of stock or the same amount of property, cash or securities as it
would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of any such event as if
it had been immediately prior to such event, the holder of the number of Warrant
Shares then exercisable under this Warrant.
(e) For the purposes of this Section 9, the
following clauses shall also be applicable:
(i) Record Date. In case the Company
shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a stock dividend, then such record date shall be the
date of the issue of the shares of Common Stock to have been issued upon the
declaration of such dividend.
(ii) Treasury Shares. The number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or
held by or for the account of
5
<PAGE>
the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue
or sale of Common Stock.
(f) All calculations under this Section 9 shall
be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may
be.
(g) If (i) the Company shall declare a dividend
(or any other distribution) on its Common Stock; or (ii) the Company shall
declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of its Common
Stock; or (iii) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the
Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of
capital stock of any class or of any rights; or (iv) the approval of any
stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any
reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the
Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock
is converted into other securities, cash or property; or (v) the Company shall
authorize the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of
the Company, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to each Holder at their
last addresses as they shall appear upon the Warrant Register, at least 10
calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for
the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or
if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock
of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or
warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become
effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of
Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common
Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, share exchange,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up; provided, however, that the failure to
mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not
affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such
notice.
10. Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder shall pay the
Exercise Price in one of the following manners:
(a) Cash Exercise. The Holder may deliver
immediately available funds; or
(b) Cashless Exercise. At any time after the
earlier to occur of the Effectiveness Date (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement) and the date the initial registration statement filed pursuant
to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the Commission,
when a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and
naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective, and
the Holder is unable to sell the Warrant Shares without volume restrictions
under Rule 144(k), the Holder may surrender this Warrant to the Company together
with a notice of cashless exercise, in
6
<PAGE>
which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares
determined as follows:
X = Y (A-B)/A
where:
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this
Warrant is being exercised.
A = the average of the closing sale prices of the Common
Stock for the fifteen (15) consecutive Trading Days
immediately prior to (but not including) the Date of
Exercise.
B = the Exercise Price.
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended,
understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless
exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and
the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been
commenced, on the issue date.
11. Certain Exercise Restrictions. A Holder may not exercise
this Warrant to the extent such exercise would result in the Holder, together
with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance
with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
("Exchange Act") and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of
the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise and held by such Holder after
application of this Section. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to
the Company the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of an
exercise hereunder, unless the exercise at issue by itself alone would result in
the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 9.999% of the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares of Common
Stock which may be beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the
Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the
restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular exercise
hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation
contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of this
Warrant is exercisable shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Holder.
If the Holder has delivered a Form of Election to Purchase for a number of
Warrant Shares that by itself alone would result in the issuance in excess of
9.999% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any
other shares of Common Stock which may be beneficially owned by the Holder or an
affiliate thereof, the Company shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall
honor the exercise for the maximum portion of this Warrant permitted to be
exercised on such Date of Exercise in accordance with the periods described
herein and disregard the balance of such Form of Election to Purchase, as if
never delivered. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but
only as to itself and not to any other Holder) upon not less than 61 days prior
notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be
7
<PAGE>
unaffected by any such waiver. The Company shall not be liable in damages or
otherwise for any failure to so notify the Holder.
12. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to
issue or cause to be issued fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of this
Warrant. The number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number
of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of this Warrant so presented. If any
fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section, be
issuable on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall pay an amount in
cash equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction.
13. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or
deliveries hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective
on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication
is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this
Section prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a business day, (ii) the
business day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is
delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this
Section at or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date and earlier
than 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, (iii) the business day
following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight
courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is
required to be given. The addresses for such communications shall be: (i) if to
the Company, to Park Road Extension, Middlebury, Connecticut 06762-1299;
facsimile number (203) 577-6244, attention Chief Financial Officer, or (ii) if
to the Holder, to the Holder at the address or facsimile number appearing on the
Warrant Register or such other address or facsimile number as the Holder may
provide to the Company in accordance with this Section.
14. Warrant Agent. The Company shall serve as warrant agent
under this Warrant. Upon thirty (30) days' notice to the Holder, the Company may
appoint a new warrant agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new
warrant agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation
to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any
corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers
substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall
be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any
such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as
warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder
at the Holder's last address as shown on the Warrant Register.
15. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Warrant shall be binding on and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and
the Holder and their successors and assigns.
8
<PAGE>
(b) Subject to Section 15(a), above, nothing
in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any person or corporation other
than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause
under this Warrant. This Warrant shall inure to the sole and exclusive benefit
of the Company and the Holder.
(c) The corporate laws of the State of Delaware
shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the Company and its
stockholders. All other questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. The Company
and the Holder hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan,
for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with
any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim
that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, or that
such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each of the Company and the Holder
hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process
being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by receiving a copy thereof
sent to the Company at the address in effect for notices to it under this
instrument and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.
(d) The headings herein are for convenience
only, do not constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit
or affect any of the provisions hereof.
(e) In case any one or more of the provisions
of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity
and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in
good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a
commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall
incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.
(f) The Holder of this Warrant shall have no
rights as a stockholder of the Company in respect of Warrant Shares as to which
this Warrant shall not have been exercised and payment made as herein provided.
(g) The Holder of this Warrant is subject to certain
trading and other limitations contained in of the Securities Purchase Agreement
of the Company dated as of July 31, 2000.
16. A Holder may not exercise this Warrant to the extent such
exercise would result in the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof,
beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.999% of the
then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such exercise and held by such Holder after
9
<PAGE>
application of this Section. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to
the Company the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of an
exercise hereunder, unless the exercise at issue would result in the issuance of
shares of Common Stock in excess of 4.999% of the then outstanding shares of
Common Stock without regard to any other shares of Common Stock which may be
beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have
the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in
this Section will limit any particular exercise hereunder and to the extent that
the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the
determination of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be the
responsibility and obligation of the Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Form
of Election to Purchase for a number of Warrant Shares that would result in the
issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, and the Company is so
aware of such result, the Company shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall
honor the exercise for the maximum portion of this Warrant permitted to be
exercised on such Date of Exercise in accordance with the periods described
herein and disregard the balance of such Form of Election to purchase, as if
never delivered. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but
only as to itself and not to any other Holder) upon not less than 61 days' prior
notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver. The
Company shall not be liable in damages or otherwise for any failure to so notify
the Holder.
