value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in the
case of any merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a
merger with another corporation in which the Company is the acquiring and the

duly execute and deliver to the holder of this Warrant a new Warrant (in form
and substance satisfactory to the holder of this Warrant), so that the holder of
this Warrant shall have the right to receive, at a total purchase price not to
exceed that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised portion of this
Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Series Preferred theretofore issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other
securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change or
merger by a holder of the number of shares of Series Preferred then purchasable
under this Warrant. Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be
as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in
this Section 4 and, in the case of a new Warrant issuable after conversion of
the authorized shares of the Series Preferred into shares of Common Stock or
after the amendment of the terms of the antidilution protection of the Series
Preferred, shall provide for antidilution protection that shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the antidilution provisions applicable to
the Series Preferred on the Date of Grant. The provisions of this subparagraph
(a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, mergers and
transfers.
(b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time
while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine
its outstanding shares of Series Preferred the Warrant Price shall be
proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case
of a combination, effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision
or combination becomes effective.

while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall (i) pay a dividend with
respect to Series Preferred payable in Series Preferred, or (ii) make any other
distribution with respect ` to Series Preferred (except any distribution
specifically provided for in Sections 4(a) and 4(b)), of Series Preferred, then
the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of
shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to that price
determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such
date of determination by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the
total number of shares of Series Preferred outstanding immediately prior to such
dividend or distribution, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the total
number of shares of Series Preferred, outstanding immediately after such
dividend or distribution.
(d) ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES. Upon each adjustment in the Warrant
Price, the number of Shares of Series Preferred purchasable hereunder shall be
adjusted, to the nearest whole share to the product obtained by multiplying the
number of Shares purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment in the Warrant
Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Warrant Price
immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the
Warrant Price immediately thereafter.
(e) ANTIDILUTION RIGHTS. The other antidilution rights applicable to the
Shares of Series Preferred purchasable hereunder are set forth in the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation, as amended through the Date of Grant, a true and
complete copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Charter"). Such
antidilution rights shall not be restated, amended, modified or waived in any
number that is adverse to the holder hereof without such holder's prior written
consent. The Company shall promptly provide the holder hereof with any
restatement, amendment, modification or waiver of the Charter promptly after the
same has been made.
5. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the Warrant Price or the number of
Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereto the
Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial officer setting
forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of
the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the
Warrant Price and the number of Shares purchasable hereunder after giving effect

the holder of this Warrant. In addition, whenever the conversion price or
conversion ratio of the Series Preferred shall be adjusted, the Company shall
make a certificate signed by its chief financial officer setting forth, in
reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the
adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the
conversion price or ratio of the Series Preferred after giving effect to such
adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be mailed (without
regard to Section 13 hereof, by first class mad, postage prepaid) to the holder
of this Warrant.
6. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Series Preferred will be
issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional
shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based on the fair market
value of the Series Preferred on the date of exercise as reasonably determined
in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors.

10.3 RIGHT TO CONVERT WARRANT INTO STOCK; NET ISSUANCE.
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT. In addition to and without limiting the
rights of the holder under the terms of this Warrant, the holder shall have the
right to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the "Conversion Right")
into shares of Series Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series Preferred has bow
automatically converted into Common Stock), as provided
7.
in this Section 10.3 at any time or from time to time during the term of this
Warrant. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right with respect to a particular
number of shares subject to this Warrant (the "Converted Warrant Shares"), the
Company shall deliver to the holder (without payment by the holder of any
exercise price or any cash or other consideration) (X) that number of shares of
fully paid and nonassessable Series Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series
Preferred has been automatically converted into Common Stock) equal to the
quotient by dividing the value of this Warrant (or the specified portion hereof)
on the Conversion Date (as defined in subsection (b) hereof), which value shall
be determined by subtracting (A) the aggregate Warrant Price of the Converted
Warrant Shares immediately prior to the exercise of the Conversion Right from
(B) the aggregate fair market value of the Converted Warrant Shares issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant (or the specified portion hereof) on the
Conversion Date (as herein defined) by (Y) the fair market value of one share of
Series Preferred (or Common. Stock if the Series Preferred has been
automatically converted into Common Stock) on the Conversion Date (as herein
defined).
Expressed as a formula, such conversion (assuming the Series Preferred
has been automatically converted into Common Stock) shall be computed as
follows:
X = B - A
-----
Y
When: X = The number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued to holder.
Y = The fair market value (FMV) of one share of Common Stock.
A = The aggregate Warrant Price (i.e., Converted Wan-at Shares X
Warrant, Price).
B = The aggregate FMV (i.e., FMV X Converted Warrant Shares).
No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion
Right, and, if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with
the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the
holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting
fractional share on the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined). For purposes
of Section 9 of this Warrant, shares issued pursuant to the Conversion Right
shall be treated as if they were issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(b) METHOD OF EXERCISE. The Conversion Right may be exercised by
the holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the
Company together with a written statement specifying that the holder thereby
intends to exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the number of shares
subject to this Warrant which are being surrendered (referred to in Section
10.3(a) hereof as the Converted Warrant Shares) in exercise of the Conversion
Right Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this
Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement, or on such later date as
is specified therein (the "Conversion Date"), and, at the election of the holder
hereof, may be made contingent upon the closing of the sale of the Company's
Common Stock to the public in a public offering pursuant to a Registration
Statement under be Act (a "Public Offering"). Certificates for the shares
issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right and, if applicable-, a new
warrant evidencing the balance
8.
of the shares remaining subject to this Warrant shall be issued as of the
Conversion Date and shall be delivered to the holder within thirty (30) days
following the Conversion Date. Any conversion from Series Preferred to Common
Stock shall be in the ratio of one (1) share of Common Stock for each share of
Series Preferred (as adjusted herein and in the Charter). On the Date of Grant,
each share of the Series Preferred represented by this Warrant is convertible
into one share of Common Stock.
(c) DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. For purposes of this
Section 10.3, "fair market value" of a share of Series Preferred (or Common
Stock if the Series Preferred has been converted into Common Stock) as of a
particular date (the "Determination Date") shall mean:
(i) If the Conversion Right is exercised in connection with and
contingent upon a Public Offering, and if the Company's Registration Statement
relating to such Public Offering ("Registration Statement") has been declared
effective by the SEC, then the initial "Price to Public" specified in the final
prospectus with respect to such offering.
(ii) If the Conversion Right is not exercised in connection with
and contingent upon a Public Offering, then as follows:
(a) If traded on a securities exchange, the fair market value
of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of
the Common Stock on such exchange over the 30-day period ending five business
days prior to the Determination Date, and the fair market value of the Series
Preferred shall be deemed to be such fair market value of the Common Stock
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of
Series Preferred is then convertible;
(b) If traded over-the-counter, the fair market value of the
Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices of the
Common Stock over the 30-day period ending five business days prior to the
Determination Date, and the fair market value of the Series Preferred shall be
deemed to be such fair market value of the Common Stock multiplied by the number
of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series Preferred is then
convertible; and
(c) If there is no public market for the Common Stock, then
fair market value shall be determined by mutual agreement of the holder of this
Warrant and the Company.
