(the "Warrant Shares") upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Exercise Form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Exercise Form") duly completed and executed,
together with the full Exercise Price (as defined below) for each share of
Common Stock as to which this Warrant is exercised, at the office of the
Company, Attention: Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Address: 0000 X. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0;
Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx X0X 0X0. Telephone: (000) 000-0000, Facsimile:
(000) 000-0000, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate
in writing, by overnight mail, with an advance copy of the Exercise Form sent
to the Company and its Transfer Agent by facsimile (such surrender and payment
of the Exercise Price hereinafter called the "Exercise of this Warrant").
(b) Date of Exercise. The "Date of Exercise" of the Warrant shall be
defined as the date that the advance copy of the completed and executed
Exercise Form is sent by facsimile to the Company, provided that the original
Warrant and Exercise Form are received by the Company as soon as practicable
thereafter. Alternatively, the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date
the original Exercise Form is received by the Company, if Holder has not sent
advance notice by facsimile. The Company shall not be required to deliver the
shares of Common Stock to the Holder until the requirements of Section 2(a)
above are satisfied.
(c) Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the
Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise,
Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares
purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not
exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant
(containing terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised
portion of this Warrant in addition to such Common Stock.
(d) Holder of Record. Each person in whose name any Warrant for shares
of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be the Holder
of record of such shares on the Date of Exercise of this Warrant, irrespective
of the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the Exercise of this
Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon Holder
any rights as a stockholder of the Company.
3. Payment of Warrant Exercise Price.
The Exercise Price ("Exercise Price"), shall initially equal $Y per
share ("Initial Exercise Price"), where "Y" shall equal 110% of the Market
Price for the applicable Put (as both are defined in the Investment Agreement)
or, if the Date of Exercise is more than six (6) months after the Date of
Issuance, the lesser of (i) the Initial Exercise Price or (ii) the "Lowest
Reset Price," as that term is defined below. The Company shall calculate a
"Reset Price" on each six-month anniversary date of the Date of Issuance which
shall equal one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the average closing bid price
of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days ending on such six-month
anniversary date of the Date of Issuance. The "Lowest Reset Price" shall equal
the lowest Reset Price determined on any six-month anniversary date of the Date
of Issuance preceding the Date of Exercise, taking into account, as
appropriate, any adjustments made pursuant to Section 5 hereof.
Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following,
or a combination thereof, at the election of Holder:
(i) Cash Exercise: cash, bank or cashiers check or wire transfer; or
2
3
(ii) Cashless Exercise: subject to the last sentence of this Section
3, surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together
with notice of cashless election, in which event the Company shall issue Holder
a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A-B)/A
where: X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
being exercised.
A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for
purposes of this Section 3(ii), the "Market Price" shall be
defined as the average Closing Price of the Common Stock for
the five (5) trading days prior to the Date of Exercise of
this Warrant (the "Average Closing Price"), as reported by
the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, National Association of Securities
Dealers Automated Quotation System ("Nasdaq") Small Cap
Market, or if the Common Stock is not traded on the Nasdaq
Small Cap Market, the Average Closing Price in any other
over-the-counter market; provided, however, that if the
Common Stock is listed on a stock exchange, the Market Price
shall be the Average Closing Price on such exchange for the
five (5) trading days prior to the date of exercise of the
Warrants. If the Common Stock is/was not traded during the
five (5) trading days prior to the Date of Exercise, then the
closing price for the last publicly traded day shall be
deemed to be the closing price for any and all (if
applicable) days during such five (5) trading day period.
B = the Exercise Price.
For purposes hereof, the term "Closing Bid Price" shall mean the
closing bid price on the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, the National Market System
("NMS"), the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, or if no
longer traded on the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, the NMS, the New York Stock
Exchange, the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the "Closing Bid Price" shall equal the
closing price on the principal national securities exchange or the
over-the-counter system on which the Common Stock is so traded and, if not
available, the mean of the high and low prices on the principal national
securities exchange on which the Common Stock is so traded.
For purposes of Rule 144 and sub-section (d)(3)(ii) thereof, it is
intended, understood and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to
have been acquired at the time this Warrant was issued. Moreover, it is
intended, understood and acknowledged that the holding period for the Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction
shall be deemed to have commenced on the date this Warrant was issued.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this
Warrant may not be exercised in a cashless exercise transaction if, on the Date
of Exercise, the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of this
Warrant would upon such issuance be then registered pursuant to an effective
registration statement filed pursuant to that certain Registration Rights
Agreement dated on or about May 11th, 2000 by and among the Company and certain
investors, or otherwise be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.

4. Transfer and Registration.
(a) Transfer Rights. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this
Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, in whole
or in part, in person or by attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly
completed and endorsed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and,
as soon as practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made
shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of
this Warrant transferred, and Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant
as to the portion hereof retained.
(b) Registrable Securities. The Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant constitutes "Registrable Securities" under that
certain Registration Rights Agreement dated on or about May 11th , 2000 between
the Company and certain investors and, accordingly, has the benefit of the
registration rights pursuant to that agreement.
5. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.
(a) Stock Dividend. If the Company shall at any time declare a
dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, then Holder, upon Exercise of this
Warrant after the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive such dividend, shall be entitled to receive upon Exercise
of this Warrant, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock as to
which this Warrant is exercised, such additional shares of Common Stock as such
Holder would have received had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to
such record date and the Exercise Price will be proportionately adjusted.
(b) Recapitalization or Reclassification. If the Company shall at any
time effect a recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction
of such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or
become exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares, then upon the
effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall
be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or
decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease
in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such recapitalization,
reclassification or similar transaction, and the Exercise Price shall be, in
the case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionally decreased and,
in the case of decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased. The
Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders of Common
Stock of any transaction described in this Section 5(b).
(c) Distributions. If the Company shall at any time distribute for no
consideration to holders of Common Stock cash, evidences of indebtedness or
other securities or assets (other than cash dividends or distributions payable
out of earned surplus or net profits for the current or preceding years) then,
in any such case, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon Exercise of this
Warrant, with respect to each share of Common Stock issuable upon such
exercise, the amount of cash or evidences of indebtedness or other securities
or assets which Holder would have been entitled to receive with respect to each
such share of Common Stock as a result of the happening of such event had this
Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the record date or other date
fixing shareholders to be affected by such event (the "Determination Date") or,
in lieu thereof, if the Board of Directors of the Company should so determine
at the time of such distribution, a reduced Exercise Price determined by
multiplying the Exercise Price on the Determination Date by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the result of such Exercise Price reduced by the value of
such distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock (such value to be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in its discretion) and the
denominator of which is such Exercise Price.
4
5
(d) Notice of Consolidation or Merger. In the event of a merger,
consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other
similar event, 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 stock or securities or other assets of the Company or another entity
or there is a sale of all or substantially all the Company's assets (a
"Corporate Change"), then this Warrant shall be exercisable into such class
and type of securities or other assets as Holder would have received had Holder
exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such Corporate Change; provided,
however, that Company may not affect any Corporate Change unless it first shall
have given thirty (30) days notice to Holder hereof of any Corporate Change.
(e) Exercise Price Adjusted. As used in this Warrant, the term
"Exercise Price" shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3
of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in subsection (a), (b)
or (c) of this Section 5, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted from
time to time in accordance with the provisions of said subsection. No such
adjustment under this Section 5 shall be made unless such adjustment would
change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more; provided, however, that
all adjustments not so made shall be deferred and made when the aggregate
thereof would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more. No
adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net
effect of increasing the Exercise Price in relation to the split adjusted and
distribution adjusted price of the Common Stock. The number of shares of Common
Stock subject hereto shall increase proportionately with each decrease in the
Exercise Price.
(f) Adjustments: Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event
that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5,
Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive shares
and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever
appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to
refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and
thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly
equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.
6. Fractional Interests.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares
shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant, but on Exercise of this
Warrant, Holder may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If,
on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be entitled to 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 of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise shall be the next higher number of shares.
7. Reservation of Shares.
The Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such
number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (or other securities
substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be sufficient for the
Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. The Company
covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued,
fully paid, nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights, rights of first
refusal or similar rights of any person or entity.

8. Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Warrant has been
issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Act by
virtue of Regulation D and exempt from state registration under applicable
state laws. The Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon the Exercise of this
Warrant may not be pledged, transferred, sold or assigned except pursuant to an
effective registration statement or an exemption to the registration
requirements of the Act and applicable state laws.
(b) Assignment. If Holder can provide the Company with
reasonably satisfactory evidence that the conditions of (a) above regarding
registration or exemption have been satisfied, Holder may sell, transfer,
assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part.
Holder shall deliver a written notice to Company, substantially in the form of
the Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B, indicating the person or persons
to whom the Warrant shall be assigned and the respective number of warrants to
be assigned to each assignee. The Company shall effect the assignment within
ten (10) days, and shall deliver to the assignee(s) designated by Holder a
Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and terms for the appropriate number of

person other than the Company and Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy
or claim under this Warrant and this Warrant shall be for the sole and
exclusive benefit of the Company and Holder.
10. Applicable Law.
This Warrant is issued under and shall for all purposes be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Nevada,
without giving effect to conflict of law provisions thereof.
11. Loss of Warrant.
Upon receipt by the Company of evidence of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or
destruction) of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Company,
and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.
