Warrant, (b) a written notice, in substantially the form of the Subscription
Notice attached hereto as Annex A, of such Holder's election to exercise this

the option of the Holder, by cash, money order, certified or bank cashier's

The Company shall, as promptly as practicable and in any event within
five Business Days thereafter, execute and deliver or cause to be executed and
delivered, in accordance with such notice, a certificate or certificates
representing the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock specified in said
notice. The share certificate or certificates so delivered shall be in such
denominations as may be specified in such notice or, if such notice shall not
specify denominations, shall be in the amount of the number of shares of Common
Stock for which the Warrant is being exercised, and shall be issued in the name
of the Holder or such other name or names as shall be designated in such notice.
Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and such
Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed for
all purposes to have become a holder of record of such shares, as of the date
the aforementioned notice is received by the Company. If this Warrant shall have
been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the
certificate or certificates, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the
rights to purchase the remaining shares of Common Stock called for by this
Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this
Warrant, or, at the request of the Holder, appropriate notation may be made on
this Warrant which shall then be returned to the Holder. The Company shall pay
all expenses, taxes (if any) and other charges payable in connection with the
preparation, issuance and delivery of share certificates and a new Warrant,
except that, if share certificates or a new Warrant shall be registered in a
name or names other than the name of the Holder, funds sufficient to pay all
transfer taxes payable as a result of such transfer shall be paid by the Holder
at the time of delivering the aforementioned notice of exercise or promptly upon
receipt of a written request of the Company for payment.

Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive rights of any
stockholder, and from all taxes.

required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this
Warrant. If any fraction of a share would, but for this Section, be issuable
upon any exercise of this Warrant, in lieu of such fractional share the Company
shall pay to the Holder, in cash, an amount equal to such fraction of the Fair
Market Value per share of Common Stock of the Company on the Business Day
immediately prior to the date of such exercise.
1.4 Share Legend. Each certificate for shares of Common Stock
issued upon exercise of this Warrant, unless at the time of exercise such
shares are registered under the Securities Act, shall bear the following
legend:

1933, as amended, or under the securities laws of any state or other
jurisdiction and may not be sold, offered for sale or otherwise
transferred unless registered or qualified under said Act and
applicable state securities laws or unless the Company receives an
opinion of counsel in reasonably acceptable form and scope reasonably
satisfactory to the Company that registration, qualification or other
such actions are not required under any such laws. The offering of this
security has not been reviewed or approved by any state securities
administrator."
Any certificate issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any
certificate bearing such legend (except a new certificate issued upon completion
of a public distribution pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act) shall also bear such legend unless, in the opinion of counsel
selected by the holder of such certificate and reasonably acceptable to the
Company, the securities represented thereby are no longer subject to
restrictions on resale under the Securities Act.
1.5 Reservation; Authorization. The Company has reserved and will
keep available for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant the total number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant from time to
time outstanding. The issuance of such shares has been duly and validly

transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and
applicable blue sky laws.
2.4 Division of Warrant. This Warrant may be divided upon
surrender hereof to the Warrant Agency, together with a written notice
specifying the names and denominations in which the new Warrants are to be

ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS
4.1 Adjustments Generally. The Exercise Price and the number of
shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as provided in this Article IV.
4.2 Common Stock Reorganization. If the Company shall after the
date of issuance of this Warrant subdivide its outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a greater number of shares or consolidate its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares (any such event being called a
"Common Stock Reorganization"), then (a) the Exercise Price shall be adjusted,
effective immediately after the record date at which the holders of shares of
Common Stock are determined for purposes of such Common Stock Reorganization,
to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date before giving
effect to such Common Stock Reorganization and the denominator of which shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to such
Common Stock Reorganization, and (b) the number of shares of Common Stock
subject to purchase upon exercise of the A Warrant and the B Warrant shall each
be adjusted, effective at such time, to a number determined by multiplying the
number of shares of Common Stock subject to purchase immediately before such
Common Stock Reorganization by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares outstanding after giving effect to such Common Stock
Reorganization and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Common Stock Reorganization.
4.3 Capital Reorganization. If after the date of issuance of this
Warrant there shall be any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a
party (whether or not the Company is the surviving entity), other than a
consolidation or a merger in which the Company is a continuing corporation and
which does not result in any reclassification of, or change (other than a Common
Stock Reorganization or a change in par value), in, outstanding shares of Common
Stock, or any sale, assignment, lease, exchange, conveyance or other transfer
(in one transaction or series of related transactions) of the property of the
Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety or all or substantially
all of the outstanding equity securities of the Company to any person or group
of related persons for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (any
such event being called a "Capital Reorganization"), then, effective upon the
effective date of such Capital Reorganization, the Holder shall have the right
to purchase, upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of
stock and other securities and property (including cash) which the Holder would
have owned or have been entitled to receive after such Capital Reorganization if
this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such Capital
Reorganization. As a condition to effecting any Capital Reorganization, the
Company or the successor or surviving corporation, as the case may be, shall
execute and deliver to the Holder an agreement as to the Holder's rights in
accordance with this Section 4.3, providing for subsequent adjustments as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article
IV. The provisions of this Section 4.3 shall similarly apply to successive
Capital Reorganizations.
4.4 Certain Other Events. If any event occurs after the date of
issuance of this Warrant as to which the foregoing provisions of this Article IV
are not strictly applicable or, if strictly applicable, would not,
6
7
in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Board"), fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder in accordance with
the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board shall
make such adjustments in the application of such provisions, in accordance with
such essential intent and principles, as shall be reasonably necessary, in the
good faith opinion of the Board, to protect such purchase rights as aforesaid.
4.5 Adjustment Rules. (a) Any adjustments pursuant to this
Article IV shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein
shall occur.
(b) If the Company shall set a record date to determine the
holders of shares of Common Stock for purposes of a Common Stock Reorganization
or Capital Reorganization, and shall legally abandon such action prior to
effecting such action, then no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Article
IV in respect of such action.
(c) No adjustment in the amount of shares purchasable upon
exercise of this Warrant or in the Exercise Price shall be made hereunder unless
such adjustment increases or decreases such amount or price by one percent or
more, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made
at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with
any adjustments so carried forward shall serve to adjust such amount or price by
one percent or more.
(d) No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be made
hereunder if such adjustment would reduce the exercise price to an amount below
par value of the Common Stock, which par value shall initially be $.01 per share
of Common Stock.
4.6 Notice of Adjustment. The Company shall give the Holder
reasonable notice of the record date or effective date, as the case may be, of
any action which requires or might require an adjustment or readjustment
pursuant to this Article IV. Such notice shall describe such event in
reasonable detail and specify the record date or effective date, as the case
may be, and, if determinable, the required adjustment and the computation
thereof. If the required adjustment is not determinable at the time of such
notice, the Company shall give reasonable notice to the Holder of such
adjustment and computation promptly after such adjustment becomes determinable.
