THIS CERTIFIES that for value received the above-named holder, or assigns,
is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to
purchase the number of shares of Class A Common Stock, $0.001 par value per
share, of American Artists Film Corporation (hereinafter called the "Company")
stated above; provided, however, that the number of shares shall be subject to

per share, the price being hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Price" and
being subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of the contingencies set forth
in this Warrant.
Upon delivery of this Warrant with the subscription form annexed hereto,
duly executed, together with payment of the Warrant Price for the shares of
Class A Common Stock thereby purchased, at the principal office of the Company,
0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, X.X., Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, 00000, or at such other address as

or certificates for the shares of Class A Common Stock so purchased. All shares
of Class A Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant
will, upon issuance, be fully-paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes,
liens and charges with respect thereto.
In reliance upon exemptions from registration, this warrant and the shares

under the Securities Act of 1933 or under any state law and may not be sold or
transferred except in transactions registered, exempt from registration, or

This Warrant is subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant may be exercised in whole at any
-------------------
time, or in part from time to time, at or prior to 5:00 p.m., Atlanta time, June
30, 2000, but not thereafter, as to all or any part of the number of whole
shares of Class A Common Stock then subject thereto. In case of any partial
exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of
like tenor and date for the balance of the shares of Class A Common Stock
purchasable thereunder.
2. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Shares Purchasable Hereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
In case the Company shall at any time subdivide the outstanding shares of its
Common Stock or issue additional shares of Common Stock of the Company as a
dividend on its Common Stock, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to
such subdivision or issuance shall be proportionately decreased, and in case the
Company shall at any time combine the outstanding shares of its Common Stock,
the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately increased, effective from and after the record date of such
subdivision, issuance or combination, as the case may be.
Upon each adjustment pursuant to this paragraph 2, the registered holder of
this Warrant shall thereafter (until another adjustment) be entitled to
purchase, at the adjusted Warrant Price, the number of shares of Class A Common
Stock, calculated to the nearest full share, obtained by (i) multiplying the
number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchasable hereunder immediately prior
to such adjustment by the Warrant Price in effect prior to such adjustment and
(ii) dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Warrant Price.
3. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation or Merger. If at any
---------------------------------------------------------
time while this Warrant is outstanding there shall be any reorganization or
reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company (other than a subdivision,
issuance or combination of shares provided for in paragraph 2 above) or any
consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, the holder of
this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to receive, during the term hereof and
upon payment of the Warrant Price, the number of shares of stock or other
securities or property of the Company or of the successor corporation resulting
from such consolidation or merger, as the case may be, to which a holder of the
Common Stock of the Company, deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant,
would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation or merger if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to
such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger; and in any such
case, appropriate adjustment (as determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions herein set forth
with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holder of this Warrant
to the end that the provisions set forth herein (including the adjustment of the
Warrant Price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as near as reasonably may be, in
relation to any shares or other property thereafter deliverable upon the
exercise hereof.
2
4. Notice of Adjustments. Upon any adjustment of the Warrant Price and
---------------------
any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Class A Common Stock
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, then, and in each such case, the
Company within thirty (30) days thereafter shall give written notice thereof to
the registered holder of this Warrant at the address of the holder as shown on
the books of the Company. The notice shall state the Warrant Price as adjusted
and the increased or decreased number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of
this Warrant, setting forth the method of calculation of each.
5. Miscellaneous. (a) The Company covenants that it will at all times
-------------
reserve and keep available, solely for the purpose of issue upon the exercise
hereof, a sufficient number of shares of Class A Common Stock to permit the
exercise hereof in full.
(b) The terms of this Warrant shall be binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of any successors or assigns of the Company and of the holder or holders
hereof and of the Class A Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise
hereof.
(c) No holder of this Warrant, as such, shall be entitled to vote or
receive dividends or be deemed to be a shareholder of the Company for any
purpose.
(d) Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant and all rights
hereunder are transferable by the registered holder hereof in person or by duly
authorized attorney on the books of the Company upon surrender of this Warrant,
properly endorsed, to the Company. The Company may deem and treat the
registered holder of this Warrant at any time as the absolute owner hereof for
all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be signed by its
duly authorized officers and its corporate seal to be affixed hereto.
Dated September 3, 1997.
