-----------------------------
non-assessable Common Stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share, at a
purchase price of ($ ) per Share, subject to adjustment from

time to time pursuant to Section 3 hereof (the "Exercise Price"). The term
"Common Stock" means, unless the context otherwise requires, the Company's
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, or other securities or property at the
time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
This Warrant is one of a series (the "Series") of Common Stock
Purchase Warrants initially issued for an aggregate of up to 38,500 shares of
Common Stock and as part of the terms and conditions of loans extended to the
Company in aggregate principal amount of $70,000.

------------------
in part from time to time commencing as of the date hereof and expiring at 5:00
P.M., New York time, on March 7, 2005 (the "Expiration Date"), subject to
earlier termination as provided herein, and may not be exercised thereafter.
1.2 Manner of Exercise. The purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant
------------------
shall be exercised by the Initial Holder or any person permitted by Section 6.1
herein (collectively, "the Holder"), by surrendering this Warrant, with the
Notice of Exercise in the form of Exhibit A hereto duly executed by the Holder,
to the Company at its principal office (or such other office as may be
designated by the Company to the Holder), accompanied by payment (in cash, by
wire transfer or by certified or official bank check or checks) of the Exercise
Price.
1.3 Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised for less than the
----------------
full number of shares of Common Stock at the time called for hereby, in which
case the number of shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant as a
whole, and the sum payable upon the exercise of this Warrant as a whole, shall
be proportionately reduced. Upon any such partial exercise, the Company at its
expense will forthwith issue to the Holder a new Warrant or Warrants of like
tenor calling for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which rights have
not been exercised, such Warrant or Warrants to be issued in the name of the
Holder.
2. Delivery of Stock Certificates Upon Exercise. As soon as
--------------------------------------------
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant, and in any event within five (5)
business days thereafter, the Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued
in the name of and delivered to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the
number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which the
Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise. Any shares of Common Stock as to
which this Warrant is exercised shall be deemed issued on and as of the date of
such exercise, and the Holder shall thereupon be deemed to be the owner of
record of such shares.
3. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.
-------------------------
3.1 Change in Capitalization. In case of any stock split, stock
------------------------
dividend or similar transaction which increases or decreases the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock, appropriate adjustment shall be made by the
Board of Directors of the Company to the number of Shares, and the Exercise
Price per Share, of Common Stock which may be purchased under this Warrant.
3.2 Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets.
----------------------------------------
(a) In case of any consolidation of the Company with or a merger
of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale or conveyance to
another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, upon any such consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance and the surviving entity is a publicly traded company, the Company
agrees that a condition of such transaction will be that the Company or such
successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the
obligations of the Company hereunder in writing. In the case of any such
consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance, the Holder shall have the right
until the Expiration Date upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such action, to receive the kind and amount of shares and
other securities and/or property which it would have owned or have been entitled
to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action, subject to
adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 3. The provisions of this Section
3.2(a) shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or
conveyances.
(b) In case of any consolidation of the Company with or a merger
of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale or conveyance to
another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, upon any such consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance and the surviving entity is a non-publicly traded company, the
Company agrees that a condition of such transaction will be that the Company
shall mail to the Holder at the earliest applicable time (and, in any event not
less than 20 days before any record date for determining the persons entitled to
receive the consideration payable in such transaction) written notice of such
record date. Such notice shall also set forth facts as shall indicate the effect
2
of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such
notice) on the Exercise Price of and the kind and amount of the shares of stock
and other securities and property deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant.
Upon the closing of the transaction referenced in the foregoing notice, this
Warrant to the extent then unexercised shall terminate
3.3 Exchanges and Distributions With Respect to Common Stock. If the
--------------------------------------------------------
Company shall exchange for its Common Stock or distribute with respect to its
Common Stock other securities issued by it, the Company shall give notice
thereof to the Holder, and the Holder shall have the right thereafter (until the
expiration of this Warrant) to exercise this Warrant for the kind and amount of
shares of stock and other securities retained or received by a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock of the Company into which this Warrant might
have been converted immediately prior to such exchange or distribution, subject
to adjustment as provided hereinabove.
3.4 Officer's Certificate. Whenever the Exercise Price per Share or
---------------------
the number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant is adjusted, the
Company shall promptly mail to the Holder of this Warrant a notice of
adjustment, which notice shall include a brief statement of the facts requiring
the adjustment and the manner of computing it and shall be certified by the
chief financial officer of the Company. The determination of the adjustment
shall be made by the Company in its sole discretion and shall be final and
binding upon the Holder.
4. Shares to Be Fully Paid; Reservation of Capital Stock Issuable
--------------------------------------------------------------
Upon Exercise of Warrants. The Company covenants and agrees that any shares
-------------------------
issued hereunder will, upon issuance, be fully paid and non-assessable and free
from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The
Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but
unissued capital stock, solely for the issuance and delivery upon the exercise
of this Warrant, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as
from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
5. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue fractions of
-----------------
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant or scrip in lieu thereof.
If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of
this Section 5, be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, then the number of
shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up or down to the nearest
whole share.
6. Transfer Restrictions
---------------------
6.1 Transfer. A Holder, including the Initial Holder or any
--------
subsequent Holder, may transfer this Warrant only to (i) any other Holder, (ii)
any entity controlled by, controlling or under common control of the Holder, or
for which the Holder is acting as the representative, or to one or more of its
shareholders, directors, officers, members, employees or limited or general
partners, or to entities that manage or co-manage the Holder or any of its
limited or general partners, or (iii) any member of the immediate family (which
shall be deemed to include a spouse, parent, or child) of an individual Holder
or trust for the benefit of any such individual. Prior to any such transfer, the
Holder must deliver the Assignment Form in the form of Exhibit B hereto and
provide information to the Company, in writing, regarding the proposed
transferee sufficient for the Company to determine the eligibility of such
transferee under this Section 6.

6.2 Securities Laws. The Holder of this Warrant, by accepting
---------------
delivery of the same, hereby:
(a) acknowledges that any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant
to the exercise of this Warrant may not be registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), at the time issued;
(b) agrees that, upon the exercise of this Warrant, it shall
make the customary representations and warranties as may be requested by counsel
to the Company in order for the Company to properly rely upon Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act regarding exemption from registration thereunder, and, in
connection with such exemption, that any certificates representing shares of
Common Stock issued pursuant to this Warrant would reflect an appropriate legend
regarding restrictions upon transferability; and
(c) agree to indemnify the Company, and hold it harmless from
and against, any and all losses, expenses (including attorneys' fee), costs and
damages arising form or relating to any violation of applicable state securities
or "blue sky" laws in connection with the issuance, sale, delivery or exercise
of this Warrant and the issuance, sale and delivery of shares of Common Stock
upon any exercise of this Warrant.
7. Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933.
---------------------------------------------
7.1 Piggy-Back Rights.
-----------------
(a) If at any time prior to the Expiration Date the Company
proposes to register shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act on any
form for the registration of its Common Stock under the Securities Act (the
"Registration Statement") for the account of stockholders (other than a
registration relating to (i) a registration of a stock option, stock purchase or
compensation or incentive plan or of stock issued or issuable pursuant to any
such plan, or a dividend investment plan; (ii) a registration of securities
proposed to be issued in exchange for securities or assets of, or in connection
with a merger or consolidation with, another corporation; or (iii) a
registration of securities proposed to be issued in exchange for other
securities of the Company) in a manner which would permit registration of the
Shares for sale to the public under the Securities Act (a "Piggyback
Registration"), it will at such time give prompt written notice to the Holder of
its intention to do so and of the Holder's rights under this Section 7.1. Such
rights are referred to hereinafter as "Piggyback Registration Rights". Upon the
written request of the Holder to the Company made within ten (10) days after the
giving of any such notice (which request shall specify the number of Shares
intended to be disposed of by the Holder and the intended method of disposition
thereof), the Company will include in the Registration Statement the Shares
which the Company has been so requested to register by the Holder, provided that
the Company's obligation shall continue after exercise of the Warrants, but it
need not include any Shares in a Registration Statement filed after the
Expiration Date.
(b) If, any time after giving written notice of its intention to
register any securities in a Piggyback Registration but prior to the effective
date of the related Registration Statement filed in connection with such
Piggyback Registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to
register such securities, the Company will give written notice of such
4
determination to the Holder and thereupon shall be relieved of its obligation to
register any Shares in connection with such Piggyback Registration.
(c) The Holder may elect in writing, not later than three (3)
business days prior to the effectiveness of the Piggyback Registration not to
have his Shares so included in connection with the Registration Statement.
(d) If the securities covered by the Registration Statement are
to be underwritten, the Company shall not be required to include therein any of
the Shares unless the Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed
upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it. If in the opinion
of the managing underwriter, the registration of all, or a part of, the Shares
which the Holder has requested to be included in the Registration Statement
would adversely affect such public offering, then, (i) the Company shall be
required to include in the underwriting only the number of Shares, if any, which
the managing underwriter believes may be sold without causing such adverse
effect, and the number of Shares that may be included in such registration shall
be allocated among all selling stockholders, requesting to participate in such
registration in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of shares of
Common Stock owned by each selling stockholder (including the Holder), or (ii)
the Company may require the selling shareholders (including the Holder) to delay
any offering of the Shares for a period of up to ninety (90) days.
(e) The Company is obligated to file only one Registration
Statement pursuant to this Section 7 which is declared effective under the
Securities Act. The Piggyback Registration Rights under this Section 7 are the
only rights granted by the Company to the Holder to include the Shares in a
Registration Statement.
7.2 Obligations of the Company.
--------------------------
(a) The Company shall comply with the requirements of this
Section 7 at its own expense. That expense shall include, but not be limited to,
legal, accounting, consulting, printing, federal and state filing fees, NASDAQ
or Exchange fees, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by counsel, accountants and
consultants retained by the Company, and miscellaneous expenses directly related
to the Registration Statement and the offering. However, this expense shall not
include the portion of any underwriting commissions, transfer taxes and any
underwriter's accountable and nonaccountable expense allowances attributable to
the offer and sale of the Shares or the fees and expenses of counsel to the
Holder, all of which expenses shall be borne by the Holder of this Warrant. The
Company shall include in the Piggyback Registration, and the prospectus included
therein, all information and materials necessary or advisable to comply with the
applicable statutes and regulations so as to permit the public sale of the
Shares by the Holder.
(b) The Company shall supply to the Holder a reasonable number
of copies of the preliminary, final or other prospectus, all prepared in
conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, and such other documents as the Holder shall
reasonably request.
(c) The Company shall cooperate with respect to (i) all
necessary or advisable actions relating to the preparation and the filing of the
Piggyback Registration and arising from the provisions of this Section 7, (ii)
5
all reasonable efforts to establish an exemption from the provisions of the
Securities Act or any other federal or state securities statutes, (iii) all
necessary or advisable actions to register or qualify the public offering at
issue pursuant to federal securities statutes and the state "blue sky"
securities statutes of each jurisdiction that the Holder shall reasonably
request, and (iv) all other necessary or advisable actions to enable the Holder
of this Warrant and/or the Shares to complete the contemplated disposition of
the Shares in each reasonably requested jurisdiction.
(d) The Company shall keep the Registration Statement to which
this Section 7 applies, and all amendments thereto, effective and current under
the Securities Act for a period ending not sooner than ninety (90) days after
their initial effective date (excluding any lock-up period) and cooperate with
respect to all necessary or advisable action to permit the completion of the
public sale or other disposition of the securities included therein.
(e) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Holder
from and against all losses, claims, damages, and liabilities, including, but
not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and any and all expenses reasonably
incurred in investigating, preparing, defending or settling any claim, arising
from or relating to (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in Registration Statement to which this Section 7 applies, or
(ii) any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements contained in Registration Statement to which this Section 7
applies not misleading; provided, however, that the indemnification continued in
this clause shall not apply if the untrue statement or omission, or alleged
untrue statement or omission, was the result of information furnished in writing
to the Company by the Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement at
issue or was the result of oral representations made by the Holder in connection
with the sale of the Shares. To the extent that the indemnification contained in
this provision applies, the Company also shall indemnify and hold harmless each
officer, director, employee, controlling person or agent of an indemnified
Holder.
7.3 Obligations of the Holder.
-------------------------
(a) The Company's obligations contained in this Section 7 shall
be conditioned upon a timely receipt by the Company in writing of the following:
(i) Information as to the terms of the contemplated public
offering furnished by and on behalf of the Holder intending to make a public
distribution of Shares; and
(ii) Such other information as the Company may reasonably
require from the Holder, or any underwriter for the Holder, for inclusion in the
Piggyback Registration.
(b) The Holder shall indemnify the Company and its officers,
directors and agent and any other selling stockholders and underwriters with
respect to an untrue statement of material fact or omission of material fact
which was the result of information furnished in writing to the Company from the
Holder and which was included in the Registration Statement.
(c) The Holder acknowledges that the Company shall have no
obligation to include the Shares in a Piggyback Registration if the Shares then
can be publicly sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

8. Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
----------------------
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement, and if requested by the Board of Directors, a bond in an
amount reasonably satisfactory to it, or (in the case mutilation) upon surrender
and cancellation hereof, the Company will issue in lieu thereof a new Warrant of
like tenor.
9. Rights as a Warrant Holder. The Holder shall not, by virtue
--------------------------
hereof, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law
or equity except with respect to certificates representing shares of Common
Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant. The rights of the Holder are limited
to those expressed in this Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company
except to the extent set forth herein. Prior to due presentment for transfer of
this Warrant, the Company may deem and treat the Holder as the absolute owner of
this Warrant for purposes of any exercise hereof and for all other purposes and
such right of the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
10. Subdivision of Rights. This Warrant (as well as any new warrant
---------------------
issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section) is exchangeable upon the
surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company for any
number of new warrants of like tenor and date representing in the aggregate the
right to subscribe for and purchase the number of shares of Common Stock of the
Company that may be subscribed for and purchased hereunder.
11. Sending of Notices. All notices and other communications with
------------------

12. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of

matters herein. Neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may be changed, waived,
discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by
the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or
termination is sought. The Company shall not amend any other Warrant issued as
