(2) the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the

10. Amendments.
----------
(a) Any term of this Warrant may be amended with the written consent of
the Company and the Holder.
(b) No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition or provision of
this Warrant, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed

11. Adjustments. The Exercise Price and the number of shares purchasable
-----------
hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
11.1 Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. Should all of the Company's
--------------------------------------
Series A Preferred Stock be, or if outstanding would be, at any time prior to
the expiration of this Warrant or any portion thereof, converted into shares of
the Company's Common Stock in accordance with Section 6 of the Certificate
setting forth the rights, privileges and preferences of the Series A Preferred
Stock, then this Warrant shall become exercisable for that number of shares of
the Company's Common Stock equal to the number of shares of the Common Stock
which would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and
the Series A Preferred Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously
converted immediately prior to such event, and the Exercise Price shall be
immediately adjusted to equal the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the
aggregate Exercise Price of the maximum number of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such
conversion or redemption, by (y) the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such conversion or redemption.
11.2 Merger, Sale of Assets, Etc.
---------------------------
(a) If at any time, while this Warrant, or any portion thereof, is
outstanding and unexpired there shall be (i) a reorganization (other than a
combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise
provided for herein), (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a
reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the
shares of the Company's capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the
merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the
form of securities, cash, or otherwise, or (iii) a sale or transfer of
substantially all of the Company's properties and assets to any other person,
then, as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer,
lawful provision shall be made so that the holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, during the
period specified herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price then in effect,
the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the successor
corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or
transfer which a holder of the shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant
would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, consolidation,
merger, sale or transfer if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before
such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, all subject to
further adjustment as provided in this Section 11. The foregoing provisions of
this Section 11.2 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers
-6-
and to the stock or securities of any other corporation which are at the time
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. If the per share consideration
payable to the holder hereof for shares in connection with any such transaction
is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such
consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Company's Board of
Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by
the Company's Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the
provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the
Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant
shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation
to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of
this Warrant.
(b) Notices of Record Date. In the event that the Company shall propose at
----------------------
any time to merge with or into any other corporation, or sell, lease or convey
all or substantially all its property or business, or to liquidate, dissolve or
wind up, then the Company shall send to the holder of this Warrant at least
twenty (20) days' prior written notice of the date on which a record shall be
taken for determining rights to vote in respect of such event.
11.3 Reclassification. etc. If the Company at any time while this
---------------------
Warrant, or any portion thereof, remains outstanding and unexpired shall, by
reclassification of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to
which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different
number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall
thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as
would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the
securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant
immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Exercise
Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further
adjustment as provided in Section 11.
11.4 Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any
-------------------------------------------
time while this Warrant, or any portion thereof, remains outstanding and
unexpired shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which purchase
rights under this Warrant exist, into a different number of securities of the
same class, the number of shares of such securities available for purchase in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, or dividend or other
distribution and the Exercise Price per share for such securities shall be
proportionately adjusted. Adjustments set forth herein shall be readjusted in
the same manner for any successive event or events described herein.
11.5 Adjustments for Dividends in Stock or Other Securities or Property.
------------------------------------------------------------------
If while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired
the holders of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant
exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for
the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become entitled to
receive, without payment therefor, other or additional stock or other securities
or property (other than cash) of the Company by way of dividend, then and in
each case, this Warrant shall re resent the right to acquire, in addition to the
number of shares of the security receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and
without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such
other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) of
the Company which such holder would hold on the date of such exercise had it
been the
-7-
holder of record of the security receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the
date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and
including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other
additional stock available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect
to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this
Section 11.
11.6 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each
-----------------------------
adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 11, the Company at its
expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance
with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of this Warrant a certificate
setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts
upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the
written request, at any time, of any such holder, furnish or cause to be
furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth: (i)such adjustments
and readjustments; (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect; and (iii) the
number of shares and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time
would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.
11.7 No Impairment. The Company will not, by any voluntary action, avoid
-------------
or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 11 and in
the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
protect the rights of the holders of this Warrant against impairment.
12. Miscellaneous.

-------
delivered to the address of such Holder shown on the books of the Company. All
notices referred to herein will be delivered in person or sent by first class
mail, postage prepaid, and will be deemed to have been given when so delivered
or sent.

-----------------------------------
