any right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday or a Sunday or shall be
a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on
the next succeeding, day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
9. MERGER, SALE OF ASSETS, ETC.
If at any time the Corporation proposes to merge or consolidate with or into any
other corporation, effect any reorganization, or sell or convey all or
substantially all of its assets to any other entity, then, as a condition of
such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, the Corporation
or its successor, as the case may be, shall enter into a supplemental agreement
to make lawful and adequate provision whereby the holder shall have the right to
receive, upon exercise of the Warrant, the kind and amount of equity securities
which would have been received upon such reorganization, consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance by a holder of a number of shares of common stock equal to
the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to
such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. If the property
to be received upon such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance is not equity securities, the Corporation shall give the holder of
this Warrant ten (10) business days prior written notice of the proposed
effective date of such transaction, and if this Warrant has not been exercised
by or on the effective date of such transaction, it shall terminate.
10. SUBDIVISION, COMBINATION, RECLASSIFICATION, CONVERSION, ETC.
If the Corporation at any time shall, by subdivision, combination,
reclassification of securities or otherwise, change the Warrant Stock into the
same or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this Warrant
shall thereafter entitle the holder to acquire such number and kind of
securities as would have been issuable in respect of the Warrant Stock (or other
securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant
immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, reclassification or other
change) as the result of such change if this Warrant had been exercised in full
for cash immediately prior to such change. The Exercise Price hereunder shall be
adjusted if and to the extent necessary to reflect such change. If the Warrant
Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise hereof are subdivided or
combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of such security, the number
of shares issuable hereunder shall be proportionately increased or decreased, as
the case may be, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately reduced or
increased, as the case may be, in both cases according to the ratio which the
total number of shares of such security to be outstanding immediately after such
even bears to the total number of shares of such security outstanding
immediately prior to such event. The Corporation shall give the holder prompt
written notice of any chance in the type of securities issuable hereunder, any
adjustment of the Exercise Price for the securities issuable hereunder, and any
increase or decrease in the number of shares issuable hereunder.
11. TRANSFERABILITY; COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS
(a) This Warrant may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part
without compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws by the
transferor and transferee (including the delivery of investment representation
letters and legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, if
requested by the Corporation). Subject such restrictions, prior to the
Expiration Time, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable by the
holder hereof, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Corporation
referred to in Section I hereof. Any such transfer shall be made in person or by
the holder's duty authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant together
with the Assignment Form attached hereto properly endorsed.

this Warrant and the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise hereof are being,
acquired solely for the holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other
party, and for investment, and that the holder will not offer, sell or otherwise

exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws. Upon
exercise of this Warrant, the holder shall, if requested by the Corporation,
confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the
3
4
Corporation, that the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased are being, acquired
solely for holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for
investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale.

Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and this Warrant may not be exercised except
by (i) the original purchaser of this Warrant from the Corporation or (ii) an
"accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. Each certificate representing the Warrant Stock or other

dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar event, shall be
stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form
(in addition to any legend required under applicable securities laws):

STATES FEDERAL OR STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED FOR VALUE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, NOR MAY THE
SECURITIES BE TRANSFERRED ON THE BOOKS OF THE CORPORATION, WITHOUT REGISTRATION

SECURITIES LAWS OR COMPLIANCE WITH AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM, SUCH

SHAREHOLDER'S COUNSEL, IN FORM ACCEPTABLE TO THE CORPORATION, THAT NO VIOLATION
OF SUCH REGISTRATION PROVISIONS WOULD RESULT FROM ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR
ASSIGNMENT.
