WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES OF SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK
This Warrant is issued to Phoenix Leasing Incorporated (the
"Investor") by Internet Travel Network, a California corporation (the
"Company"), in consideration of the loan of certain monies in connection with
the Amendment Number One to Master Equipment Lease, dated the date hereof (the
"Loan Agreement").
1. Purchase of Shares. Subject to (i) its execution of an Investor
------------------
Representation Statement of even date herewith for the benefit of the Company in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, and (ii) the terms and
---------
conditions hereinafter set forth, the Investor (and any subsequent holder of
this Warrant) is entitled, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal
office of the Company (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the
holder hereof in writing); to purchase from the Company Twenty-Eight Thousand
Nine Hundred Sixteen (28,916) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Series B
Preferred Stock of the Company, as more fully described below. The shares of
Series B Preferred Stock issuable pursuant to this Section 1 (the "Shares")
shall also be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 8 hereof.
2. Exercise Price. The exercise price for the Shares shall be $1.66
per share. Such exercise price shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to
Section 8 hereof (such price, as adjusted from time to time, is herein referred
to as the "Exercise Price").
---------------
3. Exercise Period. This Warrant is immediately exercisable and it
---------------
shall remain exercisable until the later to occur of: (i) February 20, 2008, or
(ii) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the closing of the Company's initial sale
and issuance of shares of Common Stock in an underwritten public offering
pursuant to a registration statement filed in compliance with the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "1993 Act").
4. Method of Exercise. While this Warrant remains outstanding and
------------------
exercisable in accordance with Section 3 above, the holder may exercise the
purchase rights for the full number of Shares evidenced hereby. Such exercise
shall be effected by:
(i) the surrender of the Warrant, together with a duly executed
copy of the form of subscription attached hereto, to the Secretary of the
Company at its principal offices; and
(ii) the payment to the Company of the cash amount equal to the
aggregate Exercise Price for the full number of Shares being purchased.
5. Net Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant with a cash
payment, the holder of this Warrant may elect to receive shares equal to the
value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of
this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of such
election, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder hereof a number
of shares of Series B Preferred Stock computed using the following formula:
Y(A - B)
--------
X = A
Where
X = The number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be issued to
the holder of this Warrant upon a net exercise.
Y = The number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock purchasable
under this Warrant (or the portion of this Warrant being
canceled).
A = The fair market value of one share of the Company's Series B
Preferred Stock.
B = The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such
calculations).
For purposes of this Section 5, if the Company's Common Stock is then
actively traded over-the-counter or on a securities exchange or through the
Nasdaq National Market (each referred to herein as an "Exchange"), the fair
market value of Series B Preferred Stock shall mean the average of the closing
bid and asked prices of the Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock
is then convertible as quoted in the over-the-counter market in which the Common
Stock is then traded or the closing price quoted on any Exchange on which the
Common Stock is listed, whichever is applicable, as published in the Western
Edition of The Wall Street Journal for the ten trading days immediately prior to
-----------------------
the date of the net exercise of the Warrant (or such shorter period of time
during which such stock was traded over-the-counter or on such exchange). If the
Common Stock is not traded on the over-the-counter market or on an Exchange, the
fair market value shall be the price per share that the Company could obtain
from a willing buyer for shares of Series B Preferred Stock sold by the Company
from authorized but unissued shares, as such prices shall be determined in good
faith by the
Company's Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the previous terms of this
section, in the case of a sale or merger of the Company as described under
Section 3(a) or (b) hereof, the fair market value of the Series B Preferred
Stock shall be the value determined in good faith by the Company's Board of
Directors.
6. Certificates for Shares. Upon the exercise of the purchase rights
-----------------------
evidenced by this Warrant, one or more certificates for the number of Shares so
purchased shall be issued as soon as practicable thereafter, and in any event
within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the subscription notice.
7. Reservation and Issuance of Shares. The Company covenants that it
----------------------------------
will at all times keep available such number of authorized shares of its Series
B Preferred Stock, free from all preemptive rights with respect thereto, which
will be sufficient to permit the exercise of this Warrant for the full number of
Shares specified herein. The Company further covenants that the Shares, when
issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges
with respect to the issuance thereof.
8. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The number of
-------------------------------------------------
and kind of securities purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(a) Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If the Company
----------------------------------------------
shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant subdivide its Series B
Preferred Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Series B Preferred
Stock, or issue additional shares of its Series B Preferred Stock or Common
Stock as a dividend with respect to any shares of its Series B Preferred Stock,
the number of Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be
proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or
proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments
shall also be made to the purchase prices payable per share, but the aggregate
purchase price payable for the total number of Shares purchasable under this
Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section
8(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision
or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or
in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.
(b) Reclassification Reorganization and Consolidation. In case
-------------------------------------------------
of any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the Series B
Preferred Stock of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision,
combination, or stock dividend provided for in Section 8(a) above), then, as a
condition of such reclassification, reorganization, or change, lawful provision
shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company
or its successor shall be delivered to the holder of this Warrant, so that the
holder of this Warrant shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration
of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the
exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other
securities and property receivable in connection with such reclassification,
reorganization, or change. In any such case, appropriate provisions shall be
made with respect to the rights and interest of the holder of this Warrant so
that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any
shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable
upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the purchase
price per share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate purchase price shall
remain the same.
(c) Notice of Adjustment. When any adjustment is required to be made
--------------------
in the number or kind of shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant, or in
the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly notify the holder of such event
and of the number of shares of Series B Preferred stock or other securities or
property thereafter purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant.
9. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
-----------------------------
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash
payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.
10. No Stockholder Rights. Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the holder

shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares,
including (without limitation) the right to vote such Shares, receive dividends
