2. Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant
Agreement, each Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof pursuant
to the Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Exhibit A as to all or any
part hereof, upon delivery of written notice of intent to exercise to
the Company at the address set forth in Section 8 hereof or such other
address as the Company shall designate in a written notice to the Holder
hereof, together with this Warrant and payment to the Company of the
aggregate Exercise Price of the Common Stock so purchased in lawful
currency of the United States. Upon exercise of this Warrant as
aforesaid, the Company, in a reasonable amount of time, and in any event
within thirty (30) days thereafter, will execute and deliver to the
Holder of this Warrant a certificate or certificates for the total
number of whole shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is being
exercised in such names and denominations as are requested by such
Holder. If this Warrant shall be exercised with respect to less than all
of the shares of Common Stock, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a
new Warrant covering the number of shares of Common Stock in respect of
which this Warrant shall not have been exercised, which new Warrant
shall in all other respects be identical to this Warrant.
3. Covenants and Conditions. The above provisions are subject to
the following:
(a) Neither this Warrant nor the Shares have been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended
("SECURITIES ACT") or any state securities laws ("BLUE SKY
LAWS"). This Warrant has been acquired for investment purposes
and not with a view to distribution or resale and may not be
sold or otherwise transferred without (i) an effective
registration statement for such Warrant under the Securities Act
and such applicable Blue Sky Laws, or (ii) an opinion of
counsel, which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that registration
is not required under the Securities Act or under any applicable
Blue Sky Laws. Transfer of the shares issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant shall be restricted in the same manner and to
the same extent as the Warrant and the certificates representing
such Shares shall bear substantially the following legend:
THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY
THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE
TRANSFERRED UNTIL (1) A REGISTRATION
STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS SHALL HAVE
BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH REGARD THERETO, OR (2)
IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE
COMPANY, REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT AND SUCH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS
IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH
PROPOSED TRANSFER.
The Holder hereof and the Company agree to execute such
other documents and instruments as counsel for the Company
reasonably deems
-4-

necessary to effect the compliance of the issuance of this Warrant and
any Shares issued upon exercise hereof with applicable federal and
state securities laws.
(b) The Company covenants and agrees that all Shares
which may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon
issuance and payment therefor, be legally and validly issued and
outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free from all liens,
charges and preemptive rights, if any, with respect thereto or
to the issuance thereof. The Company shall at all times reserve
and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of this
Warrant such number of authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of
this Warrant.
4. Transfer of Warrant. Subject to the provisions of Section 3
hereof, this Warrant may be transferred, in whole or in part, to any
person or business entity, by presentation of the Warrant to the
Company with written instructions for such transfer, pursuant to the
Notice of Exercise, attached hereto as Exhibit A; provided however
that as long as the Class A Warrant and Class B Warrant are both
outstanding they may not be transferred separately. Upon such
presentation for transfer, the Company shall promptly execute and
deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the form hereof in the name of
the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such
instructions. The Company shall pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with the preparation, issuance and delivery of Warrants
under this Section.
5. Warrant Holder Not Stockholder. Except as otherwise
provided herein, this Warrant does not confer upon the Holder, as
such, any right whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company.
6. Adjustment Upon Changes in Stock.
(a) If all or any portion of this Warrant shall be
exercised subsequent to any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, combination of shares of the Company, or other
similar event, occurring after the date hereof, then the Holder
exercising this Warrant shall receive, for the aggregate price
paid upon such exercise, the aggregate number and class of
shares which such Holder would have received if this Warrant had
been exercised immediately prior to such stock split, stock
dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, or other
similar event. If any adjustment under this Section 6(a), would
create a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire
a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall
be disregarded and the number of shares subject to this Warrant
shall be the next lower number of shares, rounding all fractions
downward.
(b) If all or any portion of this Warrant shall be
exercised subsequent to any merger, consolidation, exchange of
shares, separation, reorganization or liquidation of the
Company; or other similar event, occurring after the date hereof
as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed
into the same or a different number of shares of the same or
another class or classes of securities of the Company or another
entity, or the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive
cash or other property, then the Holder exercising this Warrant
shall receive, for the
-5-

aggregate price paid upon such exercise, the aggregate number
and class of shares, cash or other property which such Holder would
have received if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to
such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, separation,
reorganization or liquidation, or other similar event. If any
adjustment under this Section 6(b) would create a fractional share of
Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock,
such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares
subject to this Warrant shall be the next lower number of shares,
rounding all fractions downward.
7. Article and Section Headings. Numbered and titled article
and section headings are for convenience only and shall not be
construed as amplifying or limiting any of the provisions of this
Warrant.
8. Notice. Any and all notices, elections or demands permitted
or required to be made under this Warrant shall be in writing, signed
by the party giving such notice, election or demand and shall be
delivered personally, telecopied, telexed, or sent by certified mail
or overnight via nationally recognized courier service (such as
Federal Express), to the other party at the address set forth below,
or at such other address as may be supplied in writing and of which
receipt has been acknowledged in writing. The date of personal
delivery or telecopy or two (2) business days after the date of
mailing (or the next business day after delivery to such courier

election or demand. For the purposes of this Warrant:

investment in the Company) shall be submitted to arbitration before a
single arbitrator under the then applicable rules of the American
Arbitration Association (or any successor thereto or any replacement
arbitration tribunal as agreed to by the parties). The arbitration
hearing will be held in Los Angeles, California. The remedial
authority of any arbitrators serving under any dispute shall be the
same as, but no greater than would be the remedial power of a court
having jurisdiction over the parties and their dispute. The prevailing
party or parties in any such dispute shall be entitled to recover
reasonable attorney's fees and costs as determined by the arbitrator.
13. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in any number
of counterparts and be different parties to this Warrant in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the
same Warrant.
