Company on Form X-0, XX-0, xx X-0, or some other similar form pursuant to the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") to register the resale of

1. Registration of this F Warrant. The Company shall register this F
Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "F
Warrant Register"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time.
The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this F Warrant as the
absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution
to the Holder, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected
by notice to the contrary.
2. Investment Representation. The Holder by accepting this F Warrant
represents that the Holder is acquiring this F Warrant for its own account or
the account of an affiliate for investment purposes and not with the view to any
offering or distribution and that the Holder will not sell or otherwise dispose
of this F Warrant or the underlying Common Stock in violation of applicable
securities laws. The Holder acknowledges that the certificates representing any
shares of the Common Stock will bear a legend indicating that they have not been
registered under the 1933 Act and may not be sold by the Holder except pursuant
to an effective Registration Statement or pursuant to an exemption from
registration requirements of the 1933 Act and in accordance with federal and
state securities laws.
3. Validity of F Warrant and Issuance of the Common Stock. The Company
represents and warrants that this F Warrant has been duly authorized and validly
issued and warrants and agrees that the Common Stock that may be issued upon the

free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
Subject to filing the Certificate of Amendment as set forth in Section 6.10 of
the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company further warrants and agrees that
during the period within which the rights represented by this F Warrant may be
exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a

4. Registration of Transfers and Exchange of this F Warrant.
(a) Subject to compliance with the legend set forth on the face
of this F Warrant, the Company shall register the transfer of any
portion of this F Warrant in the F Warrant Register, upon surrender of
this F Warrant with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly
completed and signed, to the Company at the office specified in or
pursuant to Paragraph 9 hereof. Upon any such registration or
transfer, a new warrant to purchase the Common Stock, in substantially
the form of this F Warrant (any such new warrant, a "New F Warrant"),
evidencing the portion of this F Warrant so transferred shall be
issued to the transferee and a New F Warrant evidencing the remaining
portion of this F Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued
to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New F Warrant by the
transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee
of all of the rights and obligations of the Holder.
(b) This F Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by
the Holder to the office of the Company specified in or pursuant to
Paragraph 9 for one or more New F Warrants, evidencing in the
aggregate the right to purchase the number of shares of the Common
Stock which may then be purchased hereunder. Any such New F Warrant
will be dated the date of such exchange.
5. Exercise of this F Warrant.
(a) Upon surrender of this F Warrant with the Form of Election to
Purchase attached hereto duly completed and signed to the Company, at
its address set forth in Paragraph 9 hereof, and upon payment and
delivery of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of
the Common Stock that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, in
lawful money of the United States of America, in cash or by certified
or official bank check or checks, to the Company, all as specified by
the Holder in the Form of Election to Purchase, the Company shall
promptly but in no event later than five business days after the Date
of Exercise (as defined herein) issue or cause to be issued and
delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name
or names as the Holder may designate (subject to the restrictions on
transfer described in the legend set forth on the face of this F
Warrant), a certificate for the shares of the Common Stock issuable
upon such exercise, with such restrictive legend as required by the
1933 Act. Any person so designated by the Holder to receive the shares
of the Common Stock shall be deemed to have become holder of record of
the Common Stock as of the Date of Exercise of this F Warrant.
(b) "Date of Exercise" means the date on which the Company shall
have received (i) this F Warrant (or any New F Warrant, as
applicable), with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto (or
attached to such New F Warrant) appropriately completed and duly
signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of
shares of the Common Stock so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.
(c) This F Warrant shall be exercisable at any time and from time
to time for such number of shares of the Common Stock as is indicated
in the attached Form of Election to Purchase. If less than all of the
shares of the Common Stock which may be purchased under this F Warrant
are purchased at any time, the Company shall issue or cause to be
issued, at its expense, a New F Warrant evidencing the right to
purchase the remaining number of shares of the Common Stock for which
no exercise has been evidenced by this F Warrant.
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
the holder of this F Warrant may, at its election exercised in its
sole discretion, exercise this F Warrant in whole or in part and, in
lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to
the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Exercise Price, elect
instead to receive upon such exercise the "Net Number" of shares of
the Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a
"Cashless Exercise"):
Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
-------------------------------
B
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
A = the total number shares with respect to which this F
Warrant is then being exercised.
B = the last reported sale price (as reported by
Bloomberg) of the Common Stock on the date immediately
preceding the date of the notice of exercise of this F
Warrant.
C = the Exercise Price then in effect at the time of such
exercise.
Provided, however, notwithstanding anything herein contained to the
contrary, the Holder may not affect a Cashless Exercise of this F Warrant until
after July 29, 2005, and thereafter so long as there is an effective
Registration Statement with respect to the shares of the Common Stock underlying
this F Warrant.
6. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The shares of
the Common Stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of this
F Warrant and the Exercise Price therefor, are subject to adjustment upon the
occurrence of the following events:
(a) Adjustment for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends,
Recapitalizations, Etc. The Exercise Price of this F Warrant and the
number of shares of the Common Stock or other securities at the time
issuable upon the exercise of this F Warrant shall be appropriately
adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, combination of
shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar event
affecting the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock or
other securities of the Company.
(b) Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In
case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any
other corporation, entity or person, or any other corporate
reorganization, in which the Company shall not be the continuing or
surviving entity of such consolidation, merger or reorganization (any
such transaction being referred to as a "Reorganization"), then, in
each case, the Holder, on exercise hereof at any time after the
consummation or effective date of such Reorganization (the "Effective
Date"), shall receive, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock or
other securities of the Company at any time issuable upon the exercise
of this F Warrant prior to the Effective Date, the shares of the
Common Stock and other securities of the Company and property
(including cash) to which the Holder would have been entitled upon the
Effective Date if the Holder had exercised this F Warrant immediately
prior thereto (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this F
Warrant).
(c) Certificate as to Adjustments. In case of any adjustment or
readjustment in the price or kind of securities issuable on the
exercise of this F Warrant, the Company will promptly give written
notice thereof to the Holder in the form of a certificate, certified
and confirmed by the Board of Directors of the Company, setting forth
such adjustment or readjustment and showing in reasonable detail the
facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
7. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue or
cause to be issued fractional shares of the Common Stock on the exercise of this
F Warrant. The number of full shares of the Common Stock that shall be issuable
upon the exercise of this F Warrant shall be computed on the basis of the
aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock purchasable on exercise of this F
Warrant so presented. If any fraction of shares of the Common Stock would,
except for the provisions of this Paragraph 8, be issuable on the exercise of
this F Warrant, the Company shall, at its option, (a) pay an amount in cash
equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction or (b) round the number
of shares of the Common Stock issuable, up to the next whole number.
8. Notice. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) on the date they are
delivered if delivered in person; (b) on the date initially received if
delivered by facsimile transmission followed by registered or certified mail
confirmation; (c) on the date delivered by an overnight courier service; or (d)
