others with respect to any patent, patent rights, inventions, trade secrets,

the Company has not received any notice of, and has no knowledge of, any

-3-
the sale of the Units pursuant to the Purchase Agreement as a private placement
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act") pursuant to the provisions of Section 4(2)
thereof and Regulation D thereunder. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchaser's
representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement and the compliance by
the Purchaser with all of its covenants and agreements, the offer, sale, and
issuance by the Company of the Units to the Purchaser as contemplated herein
constitute transactions exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5
of the Securities Act.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser; Access to
Information; Independent Investigation. The Purchaser hereby represents and
warrants to the Company as follows:
4.1 Investment Intent. The Purchaser is purchasing the Units for
investment for its own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in
connection with, any "distribution" thereof within the meaning of the Securities
Act. The Purchaser understands that the Securities have not been registered
under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any state securities
law in reliance on specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions may depend
upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser's investment
intent as expressed herein.
4.2 Investment Experience. The Purchaser is an "accredited investor"
within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and was
not organized for the specific purpose of acquiring the Units. The Purchaser is
aware of the Company's business affairs and financial condition and has acquired
sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable
decision to acquire the Units. The Purchaser has such business and financial
experience as is required to give it the capacity to protect its own interests
in connection with the purchase of the Securities.
4.3 Authorization. This Purchase Agreement has been duly and validly
authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Purchaser and is a valid and
binding agreement of the Purchaser enforceable in accordance with its terms,
subject as to enforceability to general principles of equity and to bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally.
4.4 Compliance with Securities Laws and Regulations. All subsequent
offers and sales of the Securities by the Purchaser shall be made pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act and qualification
under the applicable state securities laws or pursuant to exemptions from
registration and qualification.
4.5 Reliance by Company. The Purchaser understands that the Units are
being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the
registration and qualification requirements of United States federal and state
securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of,
and the Purchaser's compliance with, the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein
in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of
the Purchaser to acquire the Securities.
4.6 No Government Approval. The Purchaser understands that no United
States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency
has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Units.
4.7 No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. The Purchaser understands that
nothing in the Purchase Agreement or any other materials presented to the
Purchaser in connection with the purchase and sale of the Units constitutes
legal, tax or investment advice. The Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and
investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or
appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Units.
-4-
4.8 Access to Information. The Purchaser acknowledges that it has had
the opportunity to ask questions, to receive answers concerning the terms and
conditions of the Offering from the Company and to obtain any additional
information from the Company that the Company possesses or can acquire without
unreasonable effort or expense regarding the Offering, including, without
limitation, information relating to the engagement of Americal Securities, Inc.
as placement agent for a portion of the Offering pursuant to that certain fee
engagement letter agreement, dated April 7, 2000, which sets forth the cash
fees, warrants and other arrangements in connection with the Offering. In
addition, the Purchaser acknowledges that no private placement memorandum or
similar document has been prepared in connection with the Offering and the
Company has not made any representations or warranties other than as
specifically set forth herein.
4.9 Individual Investor. If Purchaser is a natural person, Purchaser
makes the additional representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit 4.9
attached hereto
4.10 Use of Proceeds. The Purchaser acknowledges and understands that
as set forth in the Form 10-QSB for the three months ended March 31, 2000, the
Company's current burn rate for its general corporate overhead is $400,000 per
month. Assuming the sale of all of the Units being offered hereunder, the
Company expects, with its current cash reserves, to have sufficient resources to
fund its overhead expenses, conduct the Phase III clinical studies on the
Alprox-TD cream for treating male erectile dysfunction (estimated at $15
million) and on the Femprox cream for treating female sexual arousal disorder
(estimated at $17 million), and acquire a manufacturing facility for the
Alprox-TD and Femprox products (estimated at $4 million). In the event that less
than the full number of Units being offered are sold, it will be necessary for
the Company to raise additional capital before it will be able to complete one
or more of the above studies.
4.11 Risk and Suitability. The Purchaser acknowledges and realizes
that Purchaser's purchase of the Securities involves a high degree of risk. The
Purchaser represents that it has read and evaluated the discussion under the
heading "Risk Factors" contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB
for the year ended December 31, 1999. In addition, the Purchaser has such
knowledge and experience in business and financial matters, including, without
limitation, investment in technology companies, as will enable Purchaser to
evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and to make an
informed investment decision. The Purchaser understands that the Company
anticipates, based on currently proposed plans and assumptions relating to its
operations, that the proceeds of this Offering will provide sufficient working
capital to meet the Company's needs for the next 3 to 12 months (depending on
the number of Units sold). In the event that the Company's plans change or its
assumptions change or prove to be inaccurate (due to unanticipated expenses,
delays, problems, difficulties or otherwise), the Company would be required to
seek additional financing sooner than anticipated. The Company has no current
arrangements with respect to, or sources of, additional financing, and it is not
anticipated that existing stockholders will provide any portion of the Company's
future financing requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will
achieve cash flow from operations sufficient to satisfy its working capital
requirements, or at all, or that additional financing will be available to the
Company on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
5. Restrictions on Transfer, Information and Registration Rights.
5.1 Restrictions on Transferability. The Securities shall not be
transferable in the absence of a registration under the Securities Act or an
exemption therefrom, or in the absence of compliance with any term of the
Purchase Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) the Securities may be
offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) in a transaction
meeting the requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), or
in accordance with another exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the
Company) or (B) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act, in each case in accordance with the applicable
-5-
securities laws of any state of the United States or any other applicable
jurisdiction. The Company shall be entitled to give stop transfer instructions
to the transfer agent with respect to the Securities in order to enforce the
foregoing restrictions.
5.2 Restrictive Legends. Each certificate representing any of the
Securities shall bear substantially the following legend (in addition to any
legends required under applicable securities laws).

such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of material fact or omit
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the
circumstances then existing.
5.4 Indemnification and Contribution.
5.4.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder from and against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which
such Holder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar
as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in
respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Registration Statement, on the effective date
thereof; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such
case to the extent that such loss, claim, damages or liability arises out of, or
is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made in such
Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically
for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or (ii) any untrue
statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that
was delivered to the Holder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder,
and the Company will, as incurred, reimburse any Holder for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend
any such action, proceeding or claim.
5.4.2 Indemnification by Holder. Each Holder, severally and not
jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
-7-
actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which the Company may become
subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out
of, or are based upon an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of
the Registration Statement, provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable in
any such case for (i) any untrue statement included in any Prospectus which
statement has been corrected, in writing, by such Holder and delivered to the
Company at least three business days before the sale from which such loss
occurred or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any
subsequent prospectus that was delivered to the Holder prior to the pertinent
sale or sales by the Holder, and each Holder, severally and not jointly, will,
as incurred, reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action,
proceeding or claim.
5.4.3 Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by any
indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in
respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person
pursuant to this Section 5.4, such indemnified person shall notify the
indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such
action, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it
from any liability which it might have under the Purchase Agreement unless such
indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Subject to the
provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against
an indemnified person and the indemnifying person shall have been notified
thereof, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and,
to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified person. After notice from the
indemnifying person to such indemnified person of the indemnifying person's
election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying person shall not be
liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred
by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided,
however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would
make it inappropriate in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the indemnified
person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such
indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified
person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such
indemnifying person; provided, however, that in the case of the immediately
preceding proviso the indemnifying person shall not be responsible for the legal
expenses of more than one counsel for all indemnified persons.
5.4.4 Contribution in Lieu of Indemnity. If the indemnification
provided for in this Section 5.4 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold
harmless an indemnified party under Section 5.4.1 or 5.4.2 above in respect of
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect
thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations based on the relative fault of the
parties. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company on the one hand or a Holder on the other and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or Omission. The Company and the Holders agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section
5.4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated
as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does
not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this
Section 5.4.4. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of
the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
referred to above in this Section 5.4.4 shall be deemed to include any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 5.4.4, no Holder shall be required to contribute any
amount in excess of the net amount received by the Holder from the sale of the
Registrable
-8-
Securities to which such loss relates. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations in this Section 5.4.4 to
contribute are several in proportion to their respective sales of Registrable
Securities to which such loss relates and not joint.
5.5 Reports Under the Exchange Act. With a view to make available to
the Purchaser or Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time
permit the Purchaser or a Holder to sell Securities to the public without
registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company will take
any and all action necessary to: (i) make and keep public information available,
as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after the
Closing; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
and (iii) furnish to any Purchaser or Holder, so long as the Purchaser or Holder
owns any Securities forthwith upon request, (A) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Company, and (C) such other information as may be
reasonably requested in order to avail any Purchaser or Holder of any rule or
regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Securities without
registration or pursuant to such Form S-3.
6. Miscellaneous.
6.1 Waivers and Amendments. With the written consent of the
Company and the record holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the
Securities (on a converted-to-Common Stock basis) then outstanding that have not
previously been sold in a public offering, the terms of the Purchase Agreement
may be waived or amended.
6.2 Governing Law. This Purchase Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York
without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. The Company and the
Purchaser agree to consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States
District Court in New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New
York County, to determine any dispute that may arise under this Purchase
Agreement or which concerns the Securities. The Purchaser further waives any
objection to venue in such State and any objection to an action or proceeding in
such State on the basis of a non-convenient forum. THE PURCHASER AGREES TO WAIVE
ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OR ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING
OUT OF THIS PURCHASE AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
6.3 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements made herein shall survive any investigation made by the Company or
the Purchaser and the Closing.
6.4 Successors and Assigns. Subject to Section 5, the provisions
hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors,
assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto (specifically
including successors in interest to the Securities).
6.5 Entire Agreement. The Purchase Agreement (including all
Exhibits thereto) constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement
between the parties with regard to the subject hereof.
6.6 Notices, etc. All notices and other communications required or
permitted hereunder shall be effective upon receipt and shall be in writing and
may be delivered in person, by facsimile, or nationally recognized overnight
delivery service, addressed (a) if to the Purchaser, at the address set forth on
the signature page hereof or at such other address as the Purchaser shall have
furnished the Company in
-9-
writing, or (b) if to the Company, at its address set forth at the beginning of
the Purchase Agreement, or at such other address as the Company shall have
furnished to the Purchaser in writing.
6.7 Severability. If any provision of the Purchase Agreement shall
be judicially determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.
6.8 Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the paragraphs and
subparagraphs of the Purchase Agreement are for convenience of reference and
shall not, by themselves, determine the construction of the Purchase Agreement.
6.9 Counterparts. The Purchase Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which be an original, but all of which together
shall constitute one instrument.

REDEEMABLE WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES
OF COMMON STOCK OF NEXMED, INC.
This certifies that _______________________________________ (the
"Holder"), for value received is entitled to purchase from NexMed, Inc., a
Nevada corporation (the "Company"), ___________ (________) fully paid and

Date (as defined below), upon surrender to the Company at its principal office
at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx 00000 (or at such other
location as the Company may advise Holder in writing) of this Warrant properly
endorsed with the Form of Subscription attached hereto duly filled in and signed
and upon payment by cash, cashier's check or wire transfer of immediately
available funds of the aggregate Stock Purchase Price for the number of shares
for which this Warrant is being exercised determined in accordance with the
provisions hereof, such exercise to be conditioned upon the accuracy of all
representations and warranties contained in such Form of Subscription. The Stock
Purchase Price and the number of shares purchasable hereunder are subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 3 of this Warrant. "Commencement Date" means
date which is six (6) months after the date of issuance of this Warrant and
"Expiration Date" means the earlier of (i) 18 months from the date hereof, (ii)
the occurrence of an event, the proposal of which is described in subsection (d)
of Section 3.4 which causes termination of this Warrant under Section 3.4, or
(iii) on the date specified in the Notice of Redemption (as defined below)
pursuant to Section 7. This Warrant is issued pursuant to the Unit Purchase
Agreement between the Company and Holder dated as of the date hereof (the
"Purchase Agreement").
This Warrant is subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Exercise; Issuance of Certificates: Payment for Shares. This
Warrant is exercisable at the option of Holder at any time or from time to time
on or after the Commencement Date and prior to or on the Expiration Date for all
or a portion of the shares of Warrant Shares which may be purchased hereunder.
The
Company agrees that the shares of Warrant Shares purchased under this Warrant
shall be and are deemed to be issued to Holder 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. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2, certificates for the shares of Warrant Shares so purchased, together
with any other securities or property to which Holder is entitled upon such
exercise, shall be delivered to Holder by the Company's transfer agent at the
Company's expense within a reasonable time after this Warrant has been
exercised. Each stock certificate so delivered shall be in such denominations of
Warrant Shares as may be requested by Holder and shall be registered in the name
of Holder or such other name as shall be designated by Holder, subject to the
limitations contained in Section 2. If, upon exercise of this Warrant, fewer
than all of the shares of Warrant Shares evidenced by this Warrant are purchased
prior to the date of expiration of this Warrant, one or more new warrants
substantially in the form of, and on the terms in, this Warrant will be issued
for the remaining number of shares of Warrant Shares not purchased upon exercise
of this Warrant.
2. Shares to be Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. The Company
covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
preemptive rights of any stockholder and free of 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 use its best efforts to at all times have authorized
and reserved, for the purpose of issue or transfer upon exercise of this
Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock.
When and as required to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by
this Warrant, the Company will take all such action as may be necessary to
assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without
violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any
domestic securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Common
Stock may be listed.
3. Adjustment of Stock Purchase Price; Number of Shares. The Stock
Purchase Price and the number of shares of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon
the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 3.
3.1 Adjustment of Purchase Price. In the event that the Company at
any time or from time to time after the issuance of this Warrant shall declare
or pay, without consideration, any dividend on the Common Stock payable in
Common Stock or in any right to acquire Common Stock for no consideration, or
shall effect a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares of Common Stock (by stock split, reclassification or
otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common Stock or in any right to
acquire Common Stock), or in the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock
shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a
lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then the Stock Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such event shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of
such event, be proportionately decreased or increased, as appropriate. In the
event that the Company shall declare or pay, without consideration, any dividend
on the Common Stock payable in any right to acquire Common Stock for no
consideration, then the Company shall be deemed to have made a dividend payable
in Common Stock in an amount of shares equal to the maximum number of shares
issuable upon exercise of such rights to acquire Common Stock. Upon each
adjustment of the Stock Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 3.1, the holder
of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Stock Purchase
Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of Common Stock
obtained by multiplying the Stock Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable pursuant
hereto immediately prior to such adjustment, and dividing the product thereof by
the Stock Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment.
W-2
3.2 Adjustments for Reclassification and Reorganization. If the
Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of
any other class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization,
reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares
provided for in Section 3.1), the Stock Purchase Price then in effect shall,
concurrently with the effectiveness of such reorganization or reclassification,
be proportionately adjusted so that this Warrant shall represent the right to
purchase, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which this Warrant
would otherwise represent the right to purchase, a number of shares of such
other class or classes of stock equivalent to the number of shares of Common
Stock which this Warrant would have otherwise entitled the holder to purchase
immediately before that change.
3.3 Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Stock Purchase
Price or any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall within five
business days give written notice thereof, by first class mail, postage prepaid
(or by international delivery service, for international addresses), addressed
to the registered holder of this Warrant at the address of such holder as shown
on the books of the Company. The notice shall be signed by the Company's chief
financial officer and shall state the Stock Purchase Price resulting from such
adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares
purchasable at such price upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in
reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such
calculation is based.
3.4 Other Notices. If at any time:
(a) the Company shall propose to declare any cash dividend upon
its Common Stock;
(b) the Company shall propose to declare or make any dividend
or other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock, whether in cash,
property or other securities;
(c) the Company shall propose to effect any reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation or any sale, lease or
conveyance of all or substantially all of the property of the Company; or
(d) the Company shall propose to effect a voluntary or
involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give, by certified or
registered mail, postage prepaid, or international delivery service for
international deliveries, addressed to the holder of this Warrant at the address
of such holder as shown on the books of the Company, (i) at least fifteen (15)
business days' prior written notice of the date on which the books of the
Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend or distribution
or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up, and (ii) in the case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up, at least fifteen (15) business days' written notice
of, the date when the same shall take place. Any notice given in accordance with
clause (i) above shall also specify, in the case of any such dividend or
distribution, the record date for such dividend or distribution, if after the
Commencement Date. Any notice given in accordance with clause (ii) above shall
also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to
exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property, if any,
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation/merger,
sale, lease, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may
be and in connection with the occurrence of an event described in clause (d)
above such notice shall specify the anticipated net equity value that will
accrue to Common Stock holders so that the Holder can make an informed decision
whether or not to exercise
W-3
this Warrant. In the event that the Holder of the Warrant does not exercise this
Warrant prior to the occurrence of an event described in clause (a) or (b)
above, the Holder shall not be entitled to receive the benefits accruing to
existing holders of the Common Stock in such event. Upon the occurrence of an
event described in clause (c), the Holder shall be entitled thereafter, upon
payment of the Stock Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such action,
to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the class and number of shares which
the Holder would have been entitled to receive after the occurrence of such
event had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such event. In
connection with the transactions described in clause (c), the Company will
require each person (other than the Company) that may be required to deliver any
cash, stock, securities or other property upon the exercise of this Warrant as
provided herein to assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably
satisfactory to, the Holder of this Warrant (x) the obligations of the Company
under this Warrant and (y) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such cash,
stock, securities or other property as such Holder may be entitled to receive in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 3. Upon the occurrence of an
event the proposal of which is described in clause (d), this Warrant shall
terminate. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no Holder shall have the
right to obtain an injunction or restraining order or otherwise interfere with
or prevent the occurrence of any of the actions described in (a) - (d) above.
3.5 Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares. The number of Warrant
Shares purchasable hereunder shall be reduced on a one-for-one basis by the
number of shares of the Company's Common Stock issued to the Holder pursuant to
the Purchase Agreement and sold directly or indirectly, (including, without
limitation, any short sale, third party short sales or holdings of a "put
equivalent position" (as defined in Rule 16a-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, or amended)), from the date hereof until the Commencement Date. Upon
request by the Company, the Holder shall provide the Company with an affidavit
and other reasonable supporting materials as to the foregoing prior to issuance
of the Warrant Shares.
4. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for the Warrant Shares upon
the exercise of the Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder of the
Warrant for any issue tax in respect thereof; 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 issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name
other than that of the then Holder of the Warrant being exercised.
5. No Voting or Dividend Rights; Limitation of Liability. Nothing
contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder
hereof the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder in
respect of meetings of stockholders for the election of directors of the Company
or any other matters or any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company.
Except for the adjustment to the Stock Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.2 in
the event of a dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock,
no dividends or interest shall be payable or accrued in respect of this Warrant
or the interest represented hereby or the shares purchasable hereunder until,
and only to the extent that, this Warrant shall have been exercised. No
provisions hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to
purchase shares of Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights
or privileges of the Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such
Holder for the Stock Purchase Price or as a stockholder of the Company whether
such liability is asserted by the Company or by its creditors.
6. Restrictions on Transferability of Securities: Compliance With
Securities Act.
6.1 Restrictions on Transferability. The Warrant and the Warrant
Shares (collectively, the "Securities") shall not be transferable except upon
the conditions specified in the Purchase Agreement, which conditions are
intended to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and
applicable "blue sky" law.

stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar
