amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to

1.3 Company Acknowledgment. The Company will, at the time of the exercise
of the Warrant, upon the request of the holder hereof acknowledge in writing its
continuing obligation to afford to such holder any rights to which such holder
shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the
provisions of this Warrant. If the holder shall fail to make any such request,

1.4 Trustee for Warrant Holders. In the event that a bank or trust company
shall have been appointed as trustee for the holders of the Warrant pursuant to
Subsection 3.2, such bank or trust company shall have all the powers and duties
of a warrant agent (as hereinafter described) and shall accept, in its own name
for the account of the Company or such successor person as may be entitled
thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such successor, as the
case may be, on exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 1.
2. Procedure for Exercise.
2.1 Delivery of Stock Certificates, Etc., on Exercise. The Company agrees
that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the
close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered
and payment made for such shares in accordance herewith. As soon as practicable
after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within
three (3) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the
payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name
of and delivered to the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder
of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable
securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in
lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled,
cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full
share, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including
cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise
pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.
2.2 Exercise. Payment may be made either (i) in cash or by certified or
official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable
aggregate Exercise Price, (ii) by delivery of the Warrant, or shares of Common
Stock and/or Common Stock receivable upon exercise of the Warrant in accordance
with the formula set forth below in this Section 2.2, or (iii) by a combination
of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of Common Shares specified in
such Exercise Notice (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any
adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder
per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to
receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and
non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as
provided herein. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the
Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise
Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising
this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value
(as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being exercised)
by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together
with the properly endorsed Exercise Notice in which event the Company shall
issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the
following formula:
3
X=Y (A-B)
-------
A
Where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the
Holder
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under
the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being
exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised
(at the date of such calculation)
A = the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company's
Common Stock (at the date of such calculation)
B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such
calculation)
3. Effect of Reorganization, Etc.; Adjustment of Exercise Price.
3.1 Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case at any time or
from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b)
consolidate with or merge into any other person, or (c) transfer all or
substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan
or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such
case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and
adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this
Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the
consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective
date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such
consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property
(including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such
consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such
Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to
further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.
3.2 Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company following
the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the
Company, concurrently with any distributions made to holders of its Common
Stock, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder the
stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable)
receivable by the Holder of the Warrant pursuant to Section 3.1, or, if the
Holder shall so instruct the Company, to a bank or trust company specified by
the Holder and having its principal office in New York, NY as trustee for the
Holder of the Warrant (the "Trustee").
3.3 Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger
or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this
Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms
hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of
dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be
binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the
case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the
event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the
consummation of the transactions described in this Section 3, then the Company's
securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the
Holders of the Warrant will be delivered to Holder or the Trustee as
contemplated by Section 3.2.
4
4. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company
shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its
outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares
of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock,
then, in each such event, the Exercise Price shall, simultaneously with
the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Exercise
Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained
shall thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The Exercise Price,
as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening
of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The
number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled
to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the
number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the
provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction
of which (a) the numerator is the Exercise Price that would otherwise (but
for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the
denominator is the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise.
5. Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or
readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable
on the exercise of the Warrant, the Company at its expense will promptly
cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute
such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the
Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or
readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration
received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued
or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Exercise Price and
the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this
Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment
and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company
will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder of the
Warrant and any Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to
Section 11 hereof).
6. Reservation of Stock, Etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrant. The Company
will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and
delivery on the exercise of the Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.
7. Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable
securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be
transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor") in whole or
in part. On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the
Transferor's endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the
"Transferor Endorsement Form") and together with evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable
securities laws, which shall include, without limitation, the provision of
a legal opinion from the Transferor's counsel (at the Company's expense)
that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of
applicable securities laws, and with payment by the Transferor of any
applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on the order of
the Transferor thereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the
Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor
Endorsement Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on the
face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for
on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.
5
8. Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant,
on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory
in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation,
on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense
will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
9. Reserved.
10. Maximum Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no
event shall the Holder be entitled to exercise any portion of this Warrant
in excess of that portion of this Warrant upon exercise of which the sum
of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the
Holder and its Affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be
deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised portion
of the Warrant or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other
security of the Holder subject to a limitation on conversion analogous to
the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of the portion of this Warrant with
respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would
result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its Affiliates of any
amount greater than 9.99% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock
(whether or not, at the time of such exercise, the Holder and its
Affiliates beneficially own more than 9.99% of the then outstanding shares
of Common Stock). As used herein, the term "Affiliate" means any person or
entity that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries,
controls or is controlled by or is under common control with a person or
entity, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act. For purposes of the proviso to the second preceding
sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1)
of such proviso. The limitations set forth herein (x) may be waived by the
Holder upon provision of no less than seventy-five (75) days prior notice
to the Company and (y) shall automatically become null and void following
notice to the Company upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default (as defined in the Note referred to in the Purchase
Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Holder and the Company (as
amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the
"Purchase Agreement")).
6
11. Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the each Holder of
the Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or
Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1,
exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant
pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such
issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at
such office by such agent.
12. Transfer on the Company's Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on the
books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof
as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice
to the contrary.
13. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications from the Company to the
Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first class registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have been
furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder or, until any such
Holder furnishes to the Company an address, then to, and at the address
of, the last Holder of this Warrant who has so furnished an address to the
Company.
14. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived,
discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the
party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or
termination is sought. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of State of New York without regard to principles
of conflicts of laws. Any action brought concerning the transactions
contemplated by this Warrant shall be brought only in the state courts of
New York or in the federal courts located in the state of New York;
provided, however, that the Holder may choose to waive this provision and
bring an action outside the state of New York. The individuals executing
this Warrant on behalf of the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction
of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees
and costs. In the event that any provision of this Warrant is invalid or
unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such
provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict
therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or
rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable
under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Warrant. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes
of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the
terms hereof. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof
shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision hereof. The Company acknowledges that legal counsel participated
in the preparation of this Warrant and, therefore, stipulates that the
rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be applied in the interpretation of this Warrant
to favor any party against the other party.
