PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by detailed information
and financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus and the periodic
reports of the Company filed with the Commission that are incorporated into this
Prospectus by reference.
The Company
The Company is engaged in the design, development, manufacturing, and
marketing of analytical instruments. The Company has been in the business of
developing, manufacturing, and marketing precision acoustical and vibration
instrumentation since 1981. The Company is currently attempting to
commercialize two additional families of products, its mass spectrometry related
instruments (the "Sensar Technology"), and its polymer analysis technology (the
"CrossCheck Technology"). In 1996, the Company initiated sales of its time-of-
flight mass spectrometer, the TOF 2000, to the semiconductor industry through an
exclusive marketing agreement with a major distributor to this market. The
Company is currently refining other related technologies to design low-cost,
high-speed, mass spectrometry-based data acquisition and digital processing
products for potential applications in other industries.
The Company is dedicating significant amounts to technological research,
product development, and marketing strategies. The Company believes that the
patents underlying its technologies represent significant advances on existing
products in the analytical instrumentation market and that it can design and
produce instruments that are technically superior to those available today.
However, much of the potential success of the Company depends on the successful
development of commercial products, the existence or creation of a market demand
for any products that may be developed, the ability of the Company to achieve
significant market penetration for any such products in several large markets,
and the ability of the Company to produce and market any such products on a
profitable basis. Such an effort requires a significant dedication of time,
expertise, and money, and there can be no assurance of ultimate success.
This Prospectus and the Company's reports filed with the Commission contain
certain forward looking statements and information relating to the Company and
its business that are based on the beliefs of management of the Company and
assumptions made concerning information then currently available to management.
Such statements reflect the views of management of the Company at the time they
are made and are not intended to be accurate descriptions of the future. The
discussion of the future business prospects of the Company is subject to a
number of risks and assumptions, including the completion of commercial products
within projected time frames, the market acceptance of products to be developed,
the ability of the Company to successfully address technical and manufacturing
problems in producing new products, the Company's ability to enter into
strategic alliances, joint ventures, or other collaborative arrangements with
established industry partners, the success of the marketing efforts of the
Company and the entities with which it has agreements, and the ability of the
Company to obtain the necessary financing to successfully complete its goals.
Should one or more of these or other risks materialize or if the underlying
assumptions of management prove incorrect, actual results of the Company may
vary materially from those described in the forward looking statements. The
Company does not intend to update these forward looking statements, except as
may occur in the regular course of its periodic reporting obligations.
The Company has three active wholly-owned subsidiaries, LarsonoDavis
Laboratories ("LDL"), LarsonoDavis, Ltd. ("LTD"), and Sensar Corporation
("Sensar"). Unless the context otherwise requires, when used herein, the term
"Company" refers to LarsonoDavis Incorporated and its subsidiaries.
The Company's principal executive offices are located at 1681 West 820
North, Provo, Utah 84601. The Company's telephone number at that location is
(801) 375-0177.
The Offering
This offering relates to the sale by the Selling Shareholders of up to
4,090,999 shares of Common Stock, either currently issued and outstanding or
issuable on the exercise of the $5.30, $6.25 and $8.75 Warrants (collectively,
the "Warrants") and the Options.
The Warrants and $4.75 Options were, or will be, issued in private
placements (the "Private Placements") to a limited number of investors. The
Private Placements were, and will be, conducted in reliance on exemptions from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and, as such, the Warrants
and $4.75 Options issued in the Private Placements and any Common Stock that may
be issued on exercise of the Warrants or $4.75 Options are restricted securities
and are not transferable, except pursuant to a registration statement or an
available exemption from registration.
This Prospectus is part of a registration statement filed to meet the
Company's contractual obligation to permit the sale by the Selling Shareholders
of the Common Stock to be issued on exercise of the Warrants and $4.75 Options.

Use of Proceeds
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Common Stock by
the Selling Shareholders. If the Selling Shareholders elect to exercise all of
the outstanding Warrants and Options, for which there is no obligation, the
Company would receive gross proceeds of approximately $23,042,000. (See "USE OF
PROCEEDS.")
RISK FACTORS
The acquisition of the Common Stock involves certain risks. The following
factors, in addition to the other information and financial data set forth
elsewhere in this Prospectus or incorporated herein by reference, should be
considered carefully in evaluating the Company and its business before making an
investment in the Common Stock offered hereby.
The Company's Activities
Need for Additional Funds. The extent of the Company's additional funding
needs for development of its technology and expansion of its business cannot
currently be estimated, but it is likely that the interest of the Company's
shareholders will continue to be diluted as the Company seeks funding through
the sale of additional securities or through joint venture or industry
partnering arrangements. The cash needs of the Company during the preceding two
fiscal years to pay the costs of its development, business acquisitions and
dispositions, and operating losses have been primarily met by the sale of equity
securities. The Company received net proceeds in excess of $1,600,000 and
$9,300,000 from such sales in the years ended June 30, 1995 and 1996,
respectively, and in excess of $1,500,000 in the six months ended December 31,
1996. Since December 31, 1996, the Company has received gross proceeds of in
excess of $4,000,000 from the exercise of Warrants. There can be no assurance
that this source of funds (or any other source) will be available to the Company
when required or, if available, that such funds can be obtained on terms
acceptable or favorable to the Company. (See "Financial Statements" and
"MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS" included in the Company's transition report on Form 10-K for the six
months ended December 31, 1996, incorporated herein by reference.)
Significant Losses. The Company had a net loss of $1,343,081 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997, $1,643,920 for the six months ended December 31,
1996, and $1,706,248 and $311,617 for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The Company expects continued losses in the future. If the
Company continues to experience ongoing operating losses, this may adversely
affect the Company's ability to obtain any additional financing it may need in
the future and may ultimately adversely affect the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern.
Development of Marketable Products. The Company's current losses are
partially the result of increased expenses associated with the effort to develop
commercial products, which products are based on the Company's acquired and
internally developed technology. While the Company has recently introduced some
new products, it is anticipated that the development effort will continue to
require the expenditure of significant amounts. There can be no assurance that
the technology of the Company can be developed into marketable products that
will be sufficiently successful to recover these costs and the carrying value of
the related technology. In the event the Company is unable to develop
sufficiently successful products, it may be required to write the carrying value
of the related technology reflected on its balance sheets down and charge such
reduction to current operations, thereby increasing the losses of the Company.
Dependence on Key Employees. The business of the Company is to some extent
dependent on its management and technical team and their substantial experience.
The loss of one or more of these individuals could result in adverse effects on
the Company's proposed activities. The Company does not maintain key man life
insurance on any of its employees for the benefit of the Company. (See
"DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT" included in the Company's
transition report on Form 10-K for the six months ended December 31, 1996,
incorporated herein by reference.)
Future Charges Related to Capitalized Costs. Included in the Company's
balance sheets are product technology acquisition costs, license rights,
software development costs, and goodwill. Such costs are capitalized and
amortized over the estimated useful lives of the associated assets, ranging from
five to fifteen years. As of March 31, 1997, the Company had intangible assets,
net of accumulated amortization, with respect to these items of $4,991,432.
This amount will be expensed over the remaining amortization periods and will
consequently reduce earnings in future periods. Additionally, the Company had a
$2,794,284 long-term contractual arrangement that is recognized as cash is
received from royalties payable on technology licensed by the Company. Although
the Company currently expects that the royalty stream will continue and its
future operations will prove sufficiently profitable to realize the recorded
value of the underlying intangible assets, there can be no assurance of this.
(See "Financial Statements" included in the Company's transition report on Form
10-K for the six months ended December 31, 1996, and quarterly report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, incorporated herein by reference.)
Intense Competition. The development and marketing of precision analytical
instruments is highly competitive. Many of the Company's competitors have
greater financial resources, broader development programs, greater customer
recognition, and a greater number of managerial and technical personnel.
Because the Company's resources are limited and it has not established a
significant market share for its products, there can be no assurance that it
will be able to compete effectively. (See "BUSINESS: Competition" included in
the Company's transition report on Form 10-K for the six months ended December
31, 1996, incorporated herein by reference.)
General Risks Relating to Offering
Market Impact of Offering. This Prospectus relates to the sale of up to
4,090,999 shares of Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders. The Company will
not receive any proceeds from these sales and has prepared this Prospectus in
order to meet its contractual obligations to the Selling Shareholders. The
shares that can be sold by the Selling Shareholders under this Prospectus
represent approximately 36% of the currently issued and outstanding Common
Stock. The sale of such a significant block of stock, or even the possibility
of its sale, may adversely affect the trading market for the Common Stock and
reduce the prices available in that market.
Substantial Options and Warrants Outstanding. The Company has issued and
outstanding the Warrants and Options and, in addition, options to purchase up to
2,960,732 shares of Common Stock. Of this amount, 2,562,256 shares of Common
Stock are subject to options held by executive officers and directors with
exercise prices ranging from $2.0625 to $10.50 per share. The existence of such
rights to acquire Common Stock at fixed prices may prove a hindrance to future
equity and debt financing by the Company and the exercise of such rights will
dilute the percentage ownership interest of the stockholders of the Company and
may dilute the value of their ownership. The sale of the Common Stock pursuant
to this Prospectus and the possible future sale of Common Stock issuable on the
exercise of other outstanding rights could adversely affect the prevailing
market price of the Company's Common Stock. Further, the holders of the
outstanding rights may exercise them at a time when the Company would otherwise
be able to obtain additional equity capital on terms more favorable to the
Company. (See "PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION" and "SELLING SHAREHOLDERS.")
Lack of Due Diligence Review. The Selling Shareholders reviewed certain
information concerning the Company, its business, and its proposed activities in
connection with their acquisition of the Warrants and Options. However, no
securities broker-dealer or other person has been engaged to perform any due
diligence or similar review of this offering or the Company on behalf of the
Selling Shareholders, persons who may purchase Common Stock in this offering, or
any other person.
Issuance of Additional Common Stock. The Company has an authorized capital
of 290,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and
10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. As of June 18, 1997, 11,445,083 shares of
Common Stock and no shares of Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, with
an additional 6,274,737 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance on the
exercise or conversion of the Warrants, Options, and other outstanding rights to
acquire Common Stock. The Company's board of directors has authority, without
action or vote of the shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but
unissued shares. Any such issuance will dilute the percentage ownership of
shareholders and may dilute the book value of the Company's Common Stock.
Lack of Recent Shareholder Meetings. The Company currently has a
shareholders' meeting scheduled for June 25, 1997. Prior to that, the Company
had not held a meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of electing directors
or for any other purpose since 1992. Under Nevada law, the Company has been
required since inception to have an annual shareholders' meeting for the
election of directors, but has not done so recently because of the costs
involved in the preparation and mailing of required proxy materials and
conducting meetings. The Common Stock of the Company was recently admitted to
listing on the Nasdaq National Market which requires, among other things, that
the Company hold an annual meeting and distribute certain information, including
an annual report containing audited financial information and quarterly reports
containing unaudited financial information, to its shareholders. The Company
currently plans to meet these requirements. However, if it fails to do so, the
Company's shareholders would have to obtain such information from sources other
than the Company and the Company's Common Stock could be delisted from the
Nasdaq National Market which could adversely affect the liquidity of the market
for the Company's Common Stock and, potentially, the Company's ability to obtain
equity or debt based financing. In any year in which the Company has not held
or does not hold a shareholders' meeting, a shareholder may force the Company to
call such a meeting for the election of directors and such other purposes as may
come before the shareholders for consideration. Such a meeting could result in
a change in management.
Determination of Purchase and Exercise Price. The terms of the Warrants
and the Options were determined by negotiations between the Company and the
Selling Shareholders holding such Warrants and Options. These negotiations took
into account the history of, and recent prices for, the Common Stock as quoted
on Nasdaq, the business history and prospects of the Company, an assessment of
the Company's management, the Company's need for capital, the number of
securities to be offered, and the general condition of the securities market.
The prices at which the Selling Shareholders may sell shares of Common Stock in
this offering will be individually negotiated or based on the market price for
the Common Stock at the time of the transactions. Such prices do not
necessarily bear a relationship to the assets, earnings, or book value of the
Company or any other traditional criteria of value. (See "MARKET FOR COMMON
EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS" included in the Company's transition
report on Form 10-K for the six months ended December 31,1996, incorporated
herein by reference and "PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION.")
No Dividends. The Company has not paid, and does not plan to pay,
dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future, even if it were
profitable. (See "PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION.") Earnings, if any, are expected to be
used to advance the Company's activities and for general corporate purposes,
rather than to make distributions to shareholders.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock
by the Selling Shareholders. The Company anticipates that it will incur costs
of approximately $42,500 in connection with the transactions described in this
Prospectus, including filing fees, transfer agent costs, printing costs, listing
fees, and legal and accounting fees. Certain of the Selling Shareholders have
recently provided the Company with an aggregate of $4,069,393 as the payment of
the exercise price of $5.30 Warrants they committed to exercise by January 31,
1997. These holders have agreed to exercise the remainder of the $5.30
Warrants, with an aggregate exercise price of $5,024,517, on or before the date
that is 90 days subsequent to the date the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus forms a part is declared effective by the SEC. If they fail to do
so, the exercise price of all the $5.30 Warrants will be $6.25 per share. If
all of the Warrants and Options outstanding after the exercise of the $5.30
Warrants are subsequently exercised in order to sell all of the Common Stock
subject to this Prospectus, of which there is no assurance, the Company would
receive additional gross proceeds of approximately $18,017,000. To the extent
that net proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants and Options are received by
the Company, such proceeds will be used to fund the expansion of the business of
the Company, the development of the Sensar and CrossCheck Technology, and
general and administrative expenses.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Restricted Nature of Securities
The Warrants and $4.75 Options were issued in private placements and they,
together with any Common Stock issued on their exercise, are restricted
securities as that term is defined in the rules and regulations adopted under
the Securities Act. The Warrants, $4.75 Options, and Common Stock issued on the
exercise of the Warrants and $4.75 Options may not be transferred in the absence
of registration under the Securities Act or the availability of an applicable
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws. The Common Stock to be issued on exercise of
the Employee Options will be issued pursuant to a registration statement on Form
S-8 and, as such, will not be restricted securities. However, as a result of
the status of the holders of such stock, they would be required to sell the
stock pursuant to Rule 144 or some other applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. The Registration Statement of
which this Prospectus forms a part is filed to register the sale by the Selling
Shareholders of the Common Stock issued and to be issued on exercise of the
Warrants and Options.
Sale of Common Stock by Selling Shareholders
The Common Stock may be sold from time to time by the Selling Shareholders
or by pledgees, transferees, or other successors in interest, on the Nasdaq
National Market (or such other exchange on which the securities are listed at
the time of sale) at prices and terms then prevailing or related to the then
current market price, or directly to purchasers in privately negotiated
transactions. The Common Stock may be sold by various methods, including, but
not limited to, (a) directly to a purchaser in a privately negotiated
transaction; (b) to securities brokers or dealers as principals; (c) in market
transactions through broker-dealers that may receive compensation in the form of
discounts, concessions, or commissions from the Selling Shareholders and/or the
purchasers of the Common Stock for whom they may act as agent; (d) in block
transactions in which a broker or dealer may act as an agent of the Selling
Shareholder or may position and resell all or a portion of the block as a
principal in order to facilitate the transaction; (e) in connection with a
foreclosure or other transaction by the holder of a security interest in the
stock; or (f) in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, including transactions made in reliance on Rule 144. The
Selling Shareholders, and any dealers or brokers that participate in the
distribution of the Common Stock, may be deemed to be "underwriters" as that
term is defined in the Securities Act, and any profit on the sale of Common
Stock by them and any discounts, commissions, or concessions received by any
such dealers or brokers, may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and
commissions under the Securities Act. The Company has no understandings or
arrangements with broker-dealers in connection with such sales.
The Common Stock may be sold by the Selling Shareholders from time to time
in one or more transactions at a fixed price, which may be changed, or at
varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The
Company will pay the expenses of this offering incident to the registration of
the offer and sale of the Common Stock to the public, other than commissions and
discounts of broker-dealers through which such Common Stock is sold. The
Company does not intend to enter into any agreement with any securities dealer
concerning solicitation of offers to purchase the Common Stock.
Determination of Offering Price
With respect to the shares of Common Stock offered for sale by the Selling
Shareholders, such shares shall be sold from time to time at such prices as the
Selling Shareholders shall determine may be in their best interests and at which
a willing buyer can be found. Such prices may not be related to the assets,
earnings, or book value of the Company or any other recognized criteria of
value.
There can be no assurance that the Selling Shareholders will sell any or
all of the Common Stock subject to this Prospectus.
SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
The following table sets forth certain information, as of the date of this
Prospectus, with respect to the Selling Shareholders and the shares of Common
Stock to be sold by them. The percentage calculations for the Warrants and
Options include the Common Stock held by the indicated Selling Shareholders and
assume the exercise of all of the Warrants or Options, as appropriate, held by
that Selling Shareholder. The percentage calculations for the number of shares
subject to Warrants, Options, and the total number of shares held by each
Selling Shareholder gives effect to the purchase of Common Stock on the exercise
of the respective Warrants and/or Options held by such Selling Shareholder.
Except as specifically noted, none of the Selling Shareholders hold securities
of the Company that are not being sold pursuant to this Prospectus.
The Selling Shareholders named below who hold Warrants and $4.75 Options
confirmed at the time they acquired the Warrants or the $4.75 Options that such
securities were acquired for investment purposes only and without a view toward
their resale and acknowledged the existence of restrictions on resale applicable
to such securities. Such Selling Shareholders can sell such securities only in
limited circumstances. The Company is not aware of any intention by any Selling
Shareholder to sell the Warrants or $4.75 Options prior to their conversion or
exercise. This offering relates only to the sale of shares of Common Stock held
or to be held by the Selling Shareholders named in the following table on
exercise of the Warrants or $4.75 Options. If a Selling Shareholder sells the
Warrants or $4.75 Options held by such Selling Shareholder prior to exercising
such securities to acquire shares of Common Stock, the shares of Common Stock
issued to any subsequent holder on the ultimate exercise of the transferred
Warrants or $4.75 Options will not be registered and may not be resold pursuant
to this offering.
Brian G. Larson, Larry J. Davis, and Dan J. Johnson, three of the Selling
Shareholders who are offering an aggregate of 175,000 shares of Common Stock,
are directors and officers of the Company. Mr. Larson and Mr. Davis are also
the original founders of the Company. The shares held by Mr. Larson and Mr.
Davis have not previously been registered, but have been held for a sufficient
period that they would be eligible for sale under the exemption from
registration set forth in Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act. The shares
to be offered by Mr. Johnson will be issued on the exercise of a portion of the
Employee Options held by Mr. Johnson. These shares will be issued pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-8 and, as such, will not be restricted
securities. However, as a result of his status with the Company, Mr. Johnson
would be obligated to comply with Rule 144 or some other exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act in order to currently sell his
shares in the absence of the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus
forms a part. Additional information concerning the relationship between the
Company and these individuals is included in the Company's transition report on
Form 10-K for the six months ended December 31, 1996, and annual report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1996, and will be updated from time to time
in the periodic reports of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
The articles of incorporation of the Company provide for the
indemnification of the officers and directors to the full extent permitted by
Nevada corporate law. Such indemnification includes the advancement of costs
and expenses and extends to all matters, except those in which there has been
intentional misconduct, fraud, a knowing violation of law, or the payment of
dividends in violation of the Nevada Revised Statutes and could include
indemnification for liabilities under the provisions of the Securities Act.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may
be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised
that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer, or controlling person of the Company in the successful
defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities subject to this
offering, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has
been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change
to such information in the registration statement.
(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
Incorporation of Exchange Act Filings. [Regulation S-K, Item 512(b)]
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Indemnification. [Regulation S-K, Item 512(h)]
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful
defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
Rule 430. [Regulation S-K, Item 512(i)]
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this registration statement in reliance on rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

LARSON DAVIS INCORPORATED
(a Nevada corporation)
Warrant for the Purchase of
Shares of Common Stock, Par Value $0.001
THIS WARRANT WILL BE VOID
AFTER 11:59 P.M. MOUNTAIN TIME ON NOVEMBER 1, 1998
This Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), and is a "restricted security" within the
meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. This Warrant has been
acquired for investment and may not be sold or transferred without complying
with Rule 144 in the absence of an effective registration or other compliance
under the Securities Act.
This certifies that, for value received, (the
"Holder"), is entitled to subscribe for, purchase, and receive fully
paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.001 (the "Warrant
Shares"), of Larson Davis Incorporated, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), at
the price of $6.25 per Warrant Share (the "Exercise Price"), at any time or from
time to time subsequent to November 1, 1996 and prior to 11:59 p.m. mountain
time on November 1, 1998 (the "Exercise Period"), on presentation and surrender
of this Warrant with the purchase form attached hereto, duly executed, at the
principal office of the Company at 1681 West 820 North, Provo, Utah 84601, and
by paying in full and in lawful money of the United States of America by cash or
cashier's check, the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares as to which this
Warrant is exercised, on all the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
The number of Warrant Shares to be received on exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price may be adjusted on the occurrence of such events as described
herein. If the subscription rights represented hereby are not exercised by
11:59 p.m. mountain time on November 1, 1998, this Warrant shall automatically
become void and of no further force or effect, and all rights represented hereby
shall cease and expire.
Subject to the terms set forth herein, this Warrant may be exercised by the
Holder in whole or in part by execution of the form of exercise attached hereto
and payment of the Exercise Price in the manner described above.
1. Exercise of Warrants. On the exercise of all or any portion of this
Warrant in the manner provided above, the Holder exercising the same shall be
deemed to have become a holder of record of the Warrant Shares for all purposes,
and certificates for the securities so purchased shall be delivered to the
Holder within a reasonable time, but in no event longer than ten days after this
Warrant shall have been exercised as set forth above. If this Warrant shall be
exercised in respect to only a part of the Warrant Shares covered hereby, the
Holder shall be entitled to receive a similar Warrant of like tenor and date
covering the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant shall
not have been exercised. On the exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant,
at the instruction of the Holder, the Company shall offset any amounts due by it
to Holder against payment of the exercise price for the Warrants.
2. Limitation on Transfer. Subject to the restrictions set forth in
paragraph 7 hereof, this Warrant is transferable at the offices of the Company.
In the event this Warrant is assigned in the manner provided herein, the
Company, upon request and upon surrender of this Warrant by the Holder at the
principal office of the Company accompanied by payment of all transfer taxes, if
any, payable in connection therewith, shall transfer this Warrant on the books
of the Company. If the assignment is in whole, the Company shall execute and
deliver a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor to this Warrant to the
appropriate assignee expressly evidencing the right to purchase the aggregate
number of shares of common stock purchasable hereunder; and if the assignment is
in part, the Company shall execute and deliver to the appropriate assignee a new
Warrant or Warrants of like tenor expressly evidencing the right to purchase the
portion of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares as shall be contemplated by
any such transfer, and shall concurrently execute and deliver to the Holder a
new Warrant of like tenor to this Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the
remaining portion of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder which have not
been transferred to the assignee.
3. Exchange of Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, on the
presentation and surrender hereof by the Holder at the office of the Company,
for a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the
right to subscribe for and purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may be
subscribed for and purchased hereunder.
4. Fully Paid Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that the Warrant
Shares which may be issued on the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant will be, when issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Company
further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the rights
represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have authorized
and reserved a sufficient number of shares of common stock to provide for the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
5. Antidilution Provisions. The Warrant Price and number of Warrant
Shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant may be subject to adjustment from
time to time as follows:
(a) If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its common
stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend in shares,
the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such record date shall be
proportionately decreased, such adjustment to become effective immediately
after the opening of business on the day following such record date.
(b) If the Company shall subdivide the outstanding shares of common
stock into a greater number of shares, combine the outstanding shares of
common stock into a smaller number of shares, or issue by reclassification
any of its shares, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior thereto
shall be adjusted so that the Holder of this Warrant thereafter surrendered
for exercise shall be entitled to receive, after the occurrence of any of
the events described, the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder
would have been entitled had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior
to the occurrence of such event. Such adjustment shall become effective
immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date on
which such subdivision, combination, or reclassification, as the case may
be, becomes effective.
(c) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the
Company's common stock, or consolidation or merger of the Company with
another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets
to another corporation shall be effected in such a way that holders of
common stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or assets with
respect to or in exchange for common stock, then, as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, lawful
adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter have the right to acquire and receive on exercise hereof such
shares of stock, securities, or assets as would have been issuable or
payable (as part of the reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, or sale) with respect to or in exchange for such number of
outstanding common shares of the Company as would have been received on
exercise of this Warrant immediately before such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale.
In any such case, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to
the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the
provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any shares
of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable on the exercise of
this Warrant. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company
with or into another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of
its assets which results in the issuance of a number of shares of common
stock of the surviving or purchasing corporation greater or less than the
number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding immediately
prior to such merger, consolidation, or purchase are issuable to holders of
common stock of the Company, then the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such merger, consolidation, or purchase shall be adjusted in the
same manner as though there was a subdivision or combination of the
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The Company will not
effect any such consolidation, merger, or sale unless prior to the
consummation thereof the successor corporation resulting from such
consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall
assume by written instrument mailed or delivered to the Holder hereof at
its last address appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to
deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities, or assets as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to
acquire on exercise of this Warrant.
(d) If: (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
shares of common stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a
dividend payable otherwise than in cash, or any other distribution in
respect of the shares of common stock (including cash), pursuant to,
without limitation, any spin-off, split-off, or distribution of the
Company's assets; or (ii) the Company shall take a record of the holders of
its shares of common stock for the purpose of entitling them to subscribe
for or purchase any shares of any class or to receive any other rights; or
(iii) in the event of any classification, reclassification, or other
reorganization of the shares which the Company is authorized to issue,
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or
conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or
(iv) in the event of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation,
or winding up of the Company; then, and in any such case, the Company shall
mail to the Holder of this Warrant, at least 30 days prior thereto, a
notice stating the date or expected date on which a record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights, or the date on
which such classification, reclassification, reorganization, consolidation,
merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case
may be. Such notice shall also specify the date or expected date, if any
is to be fixed, as of which holders of shares of common stock of record
shall be entitled to participate in such dividend, distribution, or rights,
or shall be entitled to exchange their shares of common stock for
securities or other property deliverable upon such classification,
reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance,
dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case may be.
(e) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant shall remain
unexpired and unexercised, sells shares of common stock to an affiliate of
the Company, excluding shares issued on the exercise of options issued and
outstanding as of the date hereof and shares issued to officers and
directors under stock option plans of the Company existing as of the date
hereof, at a price lower than the Exercise Price provided herein, as the
same may from time to time be adjusted pursuant to this section 5, then the
Exercise Price of these Warrants shall be reduced automatically to such
lower price at which the Company has sold common stock.
(f) No fraction of a share shall be issued on exercise, but, in lieu
thereof, the Company, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, may pay
therefor in cash at the fair value of any such fractional share at the time
of exercise.
6. Disposition of Warrants or Warrant Shares. The registered owner of
this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, agrees for himself and any subsequent
owner(s) that, before any disposition is made of any Warrant Shares, the
owner(s) shall give written notice to the Company describing briefly the manner
of any such proposed disposition. No such disposition shall be made unless and
until:
(a) the Company has received an opinion from counsel for the owner(s)
of the Warrant Shares stating that no registration under the Securities Act
is required with respect to such disposition; or
(b) a registration statement or post-effective amendment to a
registration statement under the Securities Act has been filed by the
Company and made effective by the Commission covering such proposed
disposition.
7. Registration of Warrant Shares. On request of the Holder, the Company
shall use its best efforts to file a registration statement under the Securities
Act to register the resale of the Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of
this Warrant, shall utilize its best efforts to cause such registration
statement to become effective as soon as is commercially reasonable, and shall
maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for a period of two
years, unless the Company's legal counsel is of the reasonable opinion that
registration is not required in order to dispose of the Warrant Shares. The
Holder(s) shall cooperate with the Company and shall furnish such information as
the Company may request in connection with any such registration statement
hereunder, on which the Company shall be entitled to rely.
8. Governing Law. This agreement shall be construed under and be
governed by the laws of the state of Nevada.
9. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, or other communications
required or authorized hereunder shall be deemed given sufficiently if in
writing and if personally delivered; if sent by facsimile transmission,

This certifies that, for value received, (the

of this Warrant with the purchase form attached hereto, duly executed, at the

and payment of the Exercise Price in the manner described above.
1. Exercise of Warrants. On the exercise of all or any portion of this
Warrant in the manner provided above, the Holder exercising the same shall be

and certificates for the securities so purchased shall be delivered to the
Holder within a reasonable time, but in no event longer than ten days after this

at the instruction of the Holder, the Company shall offset any amounts due by it
to Holder against payment of the exercise price for the Warrants.
2. Limitation on Transfer. Subject to the restrictions set forth in
paragraph 7 hereof, this Warrant is transferable at the offices of the Company.
In the event this Warrant is assigned in the manner provided herein, the
Company, upon request and upon surrender of this Warrant by the Holder at the

been transferred to the assignee.
3. Exchange of Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, on the
presentation and surrender hereof by the Holder at the office of the Company,
for a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the
right to subscribe for and purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may be

4. Fully Paid Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that the Warrant
Shares which may be issued on the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant will be, when issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all

further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the rights
represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have authorized
and reserved a sufficient number of shares of common stock to provide for the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
5. Antidilution Provisions. The Warrant Price and number of Warrant
Shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant may be subject to adjustment from
time to time as follows:
(a) If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its common
stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend in shares,
the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such record date shall be
proportionately decreased, such adjustment to become effective immediately
after the opening of business on the day following such record date.
(b) If the Company shall subdivide the outstanding shares of common
stock into a greater number of shares, combine the outstanding shares of
common stock into a smaller number of shares, or issue by reclassification
any of its shares, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior thereto
shall be adjusted so that the Holder of this Warrant thereafter surrendered
for exercise shall be entitled to receive, after the occurrence of any of
the events described, the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder
would have been entitled had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior
to the occurrence of such event. Such adjustment shall become effective

which such subdivision, combination, or reclassification, as the case may
be, becomes effective.
(c) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the
Company's common stock, or consolidation or merger of the Company with
another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets
to another corporation shall be effected in such a way that holders of
common stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or assets with
respect to or in exchange for common stock, then, as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, lawful
adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter have the right to acquire and receive on exercise hereof such
shares of stock, securities, or assets as would have been issuable or

merger, or sale) with respect to or in exchange for such number of
outstanding common shares of the Company as would have been received on
exercise of this Warrant immediately before such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale.
In any such case, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to
the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the
provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any shares
of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable on the exercise of
this Warrant. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company
with or into another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of
its assets which results in the issuance of a number of shares of common
stock of the surviving or purchasing corporation greater or less than the
number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding immediately
prior to such merger, consolidation, or purchase are issuable to holders of
common stock of the Company, then the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such merger, consolidation, or purchase shall be adjusted in the
same manner as though there was a subdivision or combination of the
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The Company will not
effect any such consolidation, merger, or sale unless prior to the
consummation thereof the successor corporation resulting from such
consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall
assume by written instrument mailed or delivered to the Holder hereof at
its last address appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to
deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities, or assets as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to
acquire on exercise of this Warrant.
(d) If: (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
shares of common stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a
dividend payable otherwise than in cash, or any other distribution in
respect of the shares of common stock (including cash), pursuant to,
without limitation, any spin-off, split-off, or distribution of the
Company's assets; or (ii) the Company shall take a record of the holders of
its shares of common stock for the purpose of entitling them to subscribe
for or purchase any shares of any class or to receive any other rights; or
(iii) in the event of any classification, reclassification, or other
reorganization of the shares which the Company is authorized to issue,
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or
conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or
(iv) in the event of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation,
or winding up of the Company; then, and in any such case, the Company shall
mail to the Holder of this Warrant, at least 30 days prior thereto, a
notice stating the date or expected date on which a record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights, or the date on
which such classification, reclassification, reorganization, consolidation,
merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case
may be. Such notice shall also specify the date or expected date, if any
is to be fixed, as of which holders of shares of common stock of record
shall be entitled to participate in such dividend, distribution, or rights,
or shall be entitled to exchange their shares of common stock for
securities or other property deliverable upon such classification,
reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance,
dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case may be.
(e) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant shall remain
unexpired and unexercised, sells shares of common stock to an affiliate of
the Company, excluding shares issued on the exercise of options issued and
outstanding as of the date hereof and shares issued to officers and
directors under stock option plans of the Company existing as of the date
hereof, at a price lower than the Exercise Price provided herein, as the
same may from time to time be adjusted pursuant to this section 5, then the
Exercise Price of these Warrants shall be reduced automatically to such
lower price at which the Company has sold common stock.
(f) No fraction of a share shall be issued on exercise, but, in lieu
thereof, the Company, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, may pay
therefor in cash at the fair value of any such fractional share at the time
of exercise.
6. Disposition of Warrants or Warrant Shares. The registered owner of
this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, agrees for himself and any subsequent
owner(s) that, before any disposition is made of any Warrant Shares, the
owner(s) shall give written notice to the Company describing briefly the manner
of any such proposed disposition. No such disposition shall be made unless and
until:
(a) the Company has received an opinion from counsel for the owner(s)
of the Warrant Shares stating that no registration under the Securities Act
is required with respect to such disposition; or
(b) a registration statement or post-effective amendment to a
registration statement under the Securities Act has been filed by the
Company and made effective by the Commission covering such proposed
disposition.

This Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), and is a "restricted security" within the
meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. This Warrant has been
acquired for investment and may not be sold or transferred without complying
with Rule 144 in the absence of an effective registration or other compliance
under the Securities Act.
This certifies that, for value received, (the
"Holder"), is entitled to subscribe for, purchase, and receive fully
paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.001 (the "Warrant
Shares"), of Larson Davis Incorporated, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), at
the price of $8.75 per Warrant Share (the "Exercise Price"), at any time or from
time to time subsequent to August 1, 1997 and prior to 11:59 p.m. mountain time
on April 16, 2001 (the "Exercise Period"), on presentation and surrender of
this Warrant with the purchase form attached hereto, duly executed, at the
principal office of the Company at 1681 West 820 North, Provo, Utah 84601, and
by paying in full and in lawful money of the United States of America by cash or
cashier's check, the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares as to which this
Warrant is exercised, on all the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
The number of Warrant Shares to be received on exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price may be adjusted on the occurrence of such events as described
herein. If the subscription rights represented hereby are not exercised by
11:59 p.m. mountain time on April 16, 2001, this Warrant shall automatically
become void and of no further force or effect, and all rights represented hereby
shall cease and expire.
Subject to the terms set forth herein, this Warrant may be exercised by the
Holder in whole or in part by execution of the form of exercise attached hereto
and payment of the Exercise Price in the manner described above.
1. Exercise of Warrants. On the exercise of all or any portion of this
Warrant in the manner provided above, the Holder exercising the same shall be
deemed to have become a holder of record of the Warrant Shares for all purposes,
and certificates for the securities so purchased shall be delivered to the
Holder within a reasonable time, but in no event longer than ten days after this
Warrant shall have been exercised as set forth above. If this Warrant shall be
exercised in respect to only a part of the Warrant Shares covered hereby, the
Holder shall be entitled to receive a similar Warrant of like tenor and date
covering the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant shall
not have been exercised. On the exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant,
at the instruction of the Holder, the Company shall offset any amounts due by it
to Holder against payment of the exercise price for the Warrants.
2. Limitation on Transfer. Subject to the restrictions set forth in
paragraph 7 hereof, this Warrant is transferable at the offices of the Company.
In the event this Warrant is assigned in the manner provided herein, the
Company, upon request and upon surrender of this Warrant by the Holder at the
principal office of the Company accompanied by payment of all transfer taxes, if
any, payable in connection therewith, shall transfer this Warrant on the books
of the Company. If the assignment is in whole, the Company shall execute and
deliver a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor to this Warrant to the
appropriate assignee expressly evidencing the right to purchase the aggregate
number of shares of common stock purchasable hereunder; and if the assignment is
in part, the Company shall execute and deliver to the appropriate assignee a new
Warrant or Warrants of like tenor expressly evidencing the right to purchase the
portion of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares as shall be contemplated by
any such transfer, and shall concurrently execute and deliver to the Holder a
new Warrant of like tenor to this Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the
remaining portion of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder which have not
been transferred to the assignee.
3. Exchange of Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, on the
presentation and surrender hereof by the Holder at the office of the Company,
for a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the
right to subscribe for and purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may be
subscribed for and purchased hereunder.
4. Fully Paid Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that the Warrant
Shares which may be issued on the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant will be, when issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Company
further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the rights
represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have authorized
and reserved a sufficient number of shares of common stock to provide for the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
5. Antidilution Provisions. The Warrant Price and number of Warrant
Shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant may be subject to adjustment from
time to time as follows:
(a) If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its common
stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend in shares,
the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such record date shall be
proportionately decreased, such adjustment to become effective immediately
after the opening of business on the day following such record date.
(b) If the Company shall subdivide the outstanding shares of common
stock into a greater number of shares, combine the outstanding shares of
common stock into a smaller number of shares, or issue by reclassification
any of its shares, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior thereto
shall be adjusted so that the Holder of this Warrant thereafter surrendered
for exercise shall be entitled to receive, after the occurrence of any of
the events described, the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder
would have been entitled had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior
to the occurrence of such event. Such adjustment shall become effective
immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date on
which such subdivision, combination, or reclassification, as the case may
be, becomes effective.
(c) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the
Company's common stock, or consolidation or merger of the Company with
another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets
to another corporation shall be effected in such a way that holders of
common stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or assets with
respect to or in exchange for common stock, then, as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, lawful
adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter have the right to acquire and receive on exercise hereof such
shares of stock, securities, or assets as would have been issuable or
payable (as part of the reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, or sale) with respect to or in exchange for such number of
outstanding common shares of the Company as would have been received on
exercise of this Warrant immediately before such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale.
In any such case, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to
the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the
provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any shares
of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable on the exercise of
this Warrant. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company
with or into another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of
its assets which results in the issuance of a number of shares of common
stock of the surviving or purchasing corporation greater or less than the
number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding immediately
prior to such merger, consolidation, or purchase are issuable to holders of
common stock of the Company, then the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such merger, consolidation, or purchase shall be adjusted in the
same manner as though there was a subdivision or combination of the
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The Company will not
effect any such consolidation, merger, or sale unless prior to the
consummation thereof the successor corporation resulting from such
consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall
assume by written instrument mailed or delivered to the Holder hereof at
its last address appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to
deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities, or assets as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to
acquire on exercise of this Warrant.
(d) If: (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
shares of common stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a
dividend payable otherwise than in cash, or any other distribution in
respect of the shares of common stock (including cash), pursuant to,
without limitation, any spin-off, split-off, or distribution of the
Company's assets; or (ii) the Company shall take a record of the holders of
its shares of common stock for the purpose of entitling them to subscribe
for or purchase any shares of any class or to receive any other rights; or
(iii) in the event of any classification, reclassification, or other
reorganization of the shares which the Company is authorized to issue,
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or
conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or
(iv) in the event of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation,
or winding up of the Company; then, and in any such case, the Company shall
mail to the Holder of this Warrant, at least 30 days prior thereto, a
notice stating the date or expected date on which a record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights, or the date on
which such classification, reclassification, reorganization, consolidation,
merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case
may be. Such notice shall also specify the date or expected date, if any
is to be fixed, as of which holders of shares of common stock of record
shall be entitled to participate in such dividend, distribution, or rights,
or shall be entitled to exchange their shares of common stock for
securities or other property deliverable upon such classification,
reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance,
dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, as the case may be.
(e) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant shall remain
unexpired and unexercised, sells shares of common stock to an affiliate of
the Company, excluding shares issued on the exercise of options issued and
outstanding as of the date hereof and shares issued to officers and
directors under stock option plans of the Company existing as of the date
hereof, at a price lower than the Exercise Price provided herein, as the
same may from time to time be adjusted pursuant to this section 5, then the
Exercise Price of these Warrants shall be reduced automatically to such
lower price at which the Company has sold common stock.
(f) No fraction of a share shall be issued on exercise, but, in lieu
thereof, the Company, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, may pay
therefor in cash at the fair value of any such fractional share at the time
of exercise.
6. Disposition of Warrants or Warrant Shares. The registered owner of
this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, agrees for himself and any subsequent
owner(s) that, before any disposition is made of any Warrant Shares, the
owner(s) shall give written notice to the Company describing briefly the manner
of any such proposed disposition. No such disposition shall be made unless and
until:
(a) the Company has received an opinion from counsel for the owner(s)
of the Warrant Shares stating that no registration under the Securities Act
is required with respect to such disposition; or
(b) a registration statement or post-effective amendment to a
registration statement under the Securities Act has been filed by the
Company and made effective by the Commission covering such proposed
disposition.
7. Registration of Warrant Shares. On request of the Holder, the Company
shall use its best efforts to file a registration statement under the Securities
Act to register the resale of the Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of
this Warrant, shall utilize its best efforts to cause such registration
statement to become effective as soon as is commercially reasonable, and shall
maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for a period of two
years, unless the Company's legal counsel is of the reasonable opinion that
registration is not required in order to dispose of the Warrant Shares. The
Holder(s) shall cooperate with the Company and shall furnish such information as
the Company may request in connection with any such registration statement
hereunder, on which the Company shall be entitled to rely.
8. Governing Law. This agreement shall be construed under and be
governed by the laws of the state of Nevada.
9. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, or other communications
required or authorized hereunder shall be deemed given sufficiently if in
