Certificate No.: 2002-1.1 Number of Shares: 10,000 Name of Warrantholder: Xxxxxxxxx Partners LLC 1. Duration and Exercise of Warrant; Limitation on Exercise; Payment of Taxes. 1.1 Duration and Exercise of Warrant. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, by the Warrantholder by: (a) the surrender of this Warrant to the Company, with a duly executed Exercise Form (substantially in the form attached hereto at Exhibit "A") specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased, during normal business hours on any Business Day prior to the Expiration Date; and (b) the delivery of payment to the Company, for the account of the Company, by cash or by certified or bank cashier's check, of the applicable Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form in lawful money of the United States of America. The Company agrees that such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for the Warrant Shares as aforesaid (or as provided in Section 1.2 below). 1.2 Net Issue Exercise Right. (a) In lieu of the payment of the Exercise Price, the Warrantholder shall have the right (but not the obligation) to require the Company to convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock (the "Net Issue Exercise Right") as provided for in this Section 1.2. Upon exercise of the Net Issue Exercise Right, the Company shall deliver to the Warrantholder (without payment by the Warrantholder of any of the Exercise Price; provided, however, that the Warrantholder shall be required to pay the par value for any shares of Common Stock so delivered) that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the value of the Warrant at the time the Net Issue Exercise Right is exercised (determined by subtracting the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the exercise of the Net Issue Exercise Right from the aggregate Fair Market Value for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to the exercise of the Net Issue Exercise Right) by (y) the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to the exercise of the Net Issue Exercise Right. (b) The Net Issue Exercise Right may be exercised by the Warrantholder on any Business Day prior to the Expiration Date by delivering the Warrant Certificate, with a duly executed Exercise Form with the conversion section completed to the Company, exercising the Net Issue Exercise Right and specifying the total number of shares of Common Stock the Warrantholder will be issued pursuant to such conversion. (c) Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the "Determination Date") shall mean: (i) if the Company's Common Stock is traded on a securities exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market, the fair market value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices over a thirty (30) day period ending three days before date of calculation; or (ii) if the Company's Common Stock is actively traded over-the-counter, the fair market value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sales price (whichever is applicable) over the thirty (30) day period ending three days before the date of calculation; or (iii) if neither (i) nor (ii) is applicable, the fair market value shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (or a duly appointed committee thereof), unless the -ii- Company is at such time subject to an acquisition as described in Section 8(b) below, in which case the fair market value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the value of the consideration per share received by the holders of such stock pursuant to such acquisition. 1.3 Limitations on Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Warrant may be exercised only upon the delivery to the Company of any certificates, legal opinions, or other documents reasonably requested by the Company to satisfy the Company that the proposed exercise of this Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act. The Warrantholder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant, or any part thereof, unless and until such certificates, legal opinions or other documents are reasonably acceptable to the Company. 1.4 Warrant Shares Certificate. A stock certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Exercise Form and receipt of payment of the purchase price. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the stock certificate or certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant evidencing the rights to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. 1.5 Payment of Taxes. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any stock transfer or other issuance tax in respect thereto; provided, however, that the Warrantholder shall be required to pay all costs and expenses related to registration of ownership of the Warrant Shares, all income or other gains tax applicable to the issuance or sale of the Warrant Shares and any and all taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the then Warrantholder as reflected upon the books of the Company. 1.6 Transfer of Warrant. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed assignment agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (an "Assignment") and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor in the name of the assignee named in such Assignment, and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. Each Warrantholder agrees that prior to any proposed transfer of this Warrant, such Warrantholder shall give ten (10) days prior written notice to the Company of such Warrantholder's intention to effect such transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer in sufficient detail, and, if requested by the Company, shall be accompanied by a written opinion of legal counsel, which opinion shall be addressed to the Company and be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company's counsel, to the effect that the proposed transfer of this Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act. In addition, the Warrantholder and the transferee shall execute any documentation reasonably required by the Company to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. The Warrantholder shall not be entitled to transfer this Warrant, or any part thereof, if such legal opinion is not acceptable to the Company or if such documentation is not provided. The term "Warrant" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Warrants issued in substitution or exchange for this Warrant. -iii- 2. Restrictions on Transfer; Restrictive Legends. Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each Warrant shall (and each Warrant issued upon direct or indirect transfer or in substitution for any Warrant pursuant to Section 1.6 or Section 4 herein shall) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: THIS WARRANT AND ANY SECURITIES (COLLECTIVELY, THE "SECURITIES") ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") OR THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION AND ARE "RESTRICTED SECURITIES" AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT.

Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each stock certificate for Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each stock certificate issued upon the direct or indirect transfer of any such Warrant Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE "SHARES") HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") OR THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION AND ARE "RESTRICTED SECURITIES" AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrantholder may require the Company to issue a Warrant or a stock certificate for Warrant Shares, in each case without a legend, if either (i) such Warrant or such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale under the Securities Act, or (ii) the Warrantholder has delivered to the Company an opinion of legal counsel, which opinion shall be addressed to the Company and be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company's counsel, to the effect that such registration is not required with respect to such Warrant or such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. 3. Reservation of Shares. The Company covenants and agrees as follows: (a) all Warrant Shares which are issued upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, not subject to any preemptive rights, and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges, and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof, -iv- other than taxes with respect to any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue and liens created by operation of applicable securities laws; (b) during the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. 4. Loss or Destruction of Warrant. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of such bond or indemnification as the Company may reasonably require, and, in the case of such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. 5. Ownership of Warrant. The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer. 6. Certain Adjustments. 6.1 The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows: (a) Stock Dividends. If at any time after the date of the issuance of this Warrant (i) the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of any stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock shall have been increased by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or immediately after the effective date of subdivision or split up, as the case may be, the number of shares to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be increased so that the Warrantholder will be entitled to receive the number of Shares of Common Stock that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (g). (b) Combination of Stock. If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the date of the issuance of this Warrant shall have been decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, immediately after the effective date of such combination, the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be decreased so that the Warrantholder thereafter will be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (g). (c) Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or change of the outstanding securities of the Company or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) or any similar corporate reorganization on or after the date hereof, then and in each such case the holder of this Warrant, upon the -v- exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such reclassification, change, reorganization, merger or conveyance (assuming this Warrant is not terminated in connection therewith), shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 2(a); and in each such case, the terms of this Section 2 shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities properly receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation. (d) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip will be issued to any Warrantholder in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, no cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares, and the total number of shares of Common Stock issued to the Warrantholder shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. (e) Exercise Price Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately thereafter. 6.2 Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail by first class, postage prepaid, to the Warrantholder, notice setting forth such adjustment or adjustments. 6.3 Notice of Extraordinary Corporate Events. In case: (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or (b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up) are to be determined. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice. -vi- 6.4 Effect of Failure to Notify. Failure to file any certificate or notice or to mail any notice, or any defect in any certificate or notice, pursuant to Sections 6.2 and 6.3 shall not affect the legality or validity of the adjustment to the Exercise Price, the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, or any transaction giving rise thereto. 7.
