The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly
authorized issue of Warrants issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement dated as of
___________, 1996 (the "Warrant Agreement"), duly executed and delivered by the
Company to American Stock Transfer and Trust Company (the "Warrant Agent"),
which Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part
of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a description of the rights,
limitation of rights, obligations, duties, and immunities thereunder of the
Warrant Agent, the Company, and the holders (the words "holders" or "holder"
meaning the registered holders or registered holder) of the Warrants.
Warrants may be exercised to purchase Shares from the Company on or
before the Expiration Date at the Exercise Price set forth on the face hereof,
subject to adjustment as hereinafter referred to. The holder of Warrants
evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may exercise them by surrendering the
Warrant Certificate, with the form of election to purchase set forth hereon
properly completed and executed, together with payment of the Exercise Price
and any applicable transfer taxes at the principal corporate trust office of
the Warrant Agent in New York, New York. In the event that upon any exercise of
Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate the number of Warrants exercised
shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced hereby, there shall
be issued to the holder hereof or the holder's assignee a new Warrant
Certificate evidencing the number of Warrants not exercised. No adjustment shall
be made for any dividends on any Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
The Warrant Agreement provides that, upon the occurrence of certain
events, the Exercise Price set forth on the face hereof may, subject to
certain conditions, be adjusted. If the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Warrant
Agreement provides that, at the election of the Company, either (i) the number
of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted or
(ii) each outstanding Warrant shall be adjusted to become a different number of
Warrants. In the case of (ii), the Company will cause to the distributed to
registered holders of Warrant Certificates either Warrant Certificates
representing the additional Warrants issuable pursuant to the adjustment or
substitute Warrant Certificates to replace all outstanding Warrant
Certificates. No fractions of a Warrant will be issued upon any such adjustment
but the persons entitled to such fractional interest will be paid, as provided
in the Warrant Agreement, an amount in cash equal to the current market value
of such fractional Warrant.
Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the principal corporate trust
office of the Warrant Agent in New York, New York by the registered holder
thereof in person or by a legal representative duly authorized in writing, may
be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the
Warrant Agreement but without payment of any service charge, for another
Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates or like tenor evidencing in the
aggregate a like number of Warrants.
Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of this Warrant
Certificate at the principal corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent in New
York, New York, a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor
and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the
transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the
limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any
tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.
The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered
holder(s) hereof as the absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate
(notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by
anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, and of any distribution to the
holder(s) hereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the
Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
