for a fractional share) by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the
place provided in subsection 1.2 except that the amount payable by the holder on

expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the holder
hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the holder hereof or as such

request, the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still
be exercised.

writing its continuing obligation to afford to such holder any rights to which
such holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with

that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to be issued to the holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as
of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any
event within 10 days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the
payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name
of and delivered to the holder hereof, or as such holder (upon payment by such
holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, a certificate or
certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such holder
shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to
which such holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction
multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share, together with any
other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable)
to which such holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or
otherwise.
3. Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
3.1. Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case at any time or
from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b)
consolidate with or merge into any other person, or (c) transfer all or
substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan
or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such
case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and
adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the holder of this
Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the
consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective
date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such
consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property
(including cash) to which such holder would have been entitled upon such
consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such
holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to
further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 5.
3.2. Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company
following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets,
the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to
be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrants, if exercised, after the
effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust
company having its principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the holder
or holders of the Warrants.
3.3. Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation,
merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in
this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the
terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of
dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be
binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the
case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 5.
4. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the
Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such
event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such
event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The
Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the
happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4.
The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to
receive shall be increased to a number determined by multiplying the number of
shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator
is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect
on the date of such exercise.
5. Chief Financial Officer's Certificate as to Adjustments. In each
case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense
will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer to compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail
the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a
statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any
additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed
to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price
and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this
Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as
adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith
mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder of the Warrant and any
Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 10 hereof).
6. Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant;
Financial Statements. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available,
solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of

financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the
holders of the Company's Common Stock.

evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a

satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this
Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such
mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its
expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

certain registration rights by the Company. These registration rights are set
forth in a Subscription Agreement entered into by the initial holder of this
