responsibility whatsoever for payment or assumption of any liabilities or
obligations of Seller which exist upon the closing of this Agreement, whether
such liabilities are matured or contingent.
9. Due Diligence Investigations - Between the date of this Agreement and
the Closing Date hereof, the parties hereto and their respective managements and

11. Consummation of Transaction - Each of the corporate parties hereto, and
their respective managements and executive officers, shall use their best
efforts to cause all conditions to their respective obligations hereunder to

shareholders at duly held shareholders' meetings pursuant to the respective
Bylaws and state law requirements pertaining to each party hereto, for the
approval of such shareholders.
13. Delivery and Nature of Securities - On the Closing Date of this
Agreement, Buyer shall deliver to Seller duly endorsed certificates representing
common stock of Buyer required to be issued to Seller incident to this Agreement
as necessary to effect the full issuance of common stock of Seller pursuant
hereto, after which all of such common shares shall be fully paid and
nonassessable.
Common shares of Buyer to be issued to Seller incident hereto shall be
"restricted securities" as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, meaning
generally that such common shares have not been registered under any federal or
state securities laws, and accordingly Seller will take such securities knowing
and understanding such restricted status. Any future transfer or disposition of
such common shares of Buyer must either be registered under such securities laws
or exempt from such registration under all applicable laws. Any common shares of
Buyer issued to the shareholders of Seller after the Closing Date hereof shall
also have such restricted securities status after being issued to shareholders
of Seller following the closing hereof. Share certificates issued by Buyer to
Seller or Seller's shareholders also shall bear a standard restrictive legend as
appropriate to clearly evidence their restricted nature.

Warrant Certificate
No. W- Certificate for _______ Warrants
THIS CERTIFIES THAT
or his, her or its registered assigns, as the case may be, is the owner of that
number of Warrants specified above, of which each Warrant entitles the holder
thereof to purchase one fully paid and nonassessable common share, subject to
adjustment as provided herein, of American Eagle Motorcycle Company, Inc. (the
"Company") anytime during the term hereof at an exercise price of $1.00.
Each Warrant may be exercised on any business day before the Expiration
Date of May 31, 2004, and the holder hereof or any authorized assigns hereby
acknowledges that the common stock to be issued underlying these Warrants shall
constitute "restricted securities" unless such shares have been registered
under relevant securities laws prior to exercise of the Warrants. The Company is
under no obligation to so register such underlying common shares, and
accordingly the holder hereof or any assigns acknowledges that any common stock
of the Company being purchased incident to exercise of these Warrants will be
purchased as a long-term investment to be restricted from further resale,
transfer or other disposition thereof unless either registered or satisfying an
appropriate exemption from registration such as Rule 144 of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended.
The Warrants exercisable hereby are exercisable upon presentation and
surrender of this Warrant Certificate at the corporate office of the Company
along with payment in full of the exercise price for whatever number of Warrants
are being exercised by the holder hereof in U.S. currency.
At the election of the holder or any assigns, these Warrants are
exercisable either in whole or in part anytime, and from time to time, for the
number of shares specified above. In the event this Warrant Certificate is
exercised in respect to less than all of such shares, a new Warrant Certificate
will be issued for the number of Warrants which were not exercised. The Company
shall not be obligated to issue any fractional shares incident to exercise of
these Warrants.
Prior to the exercise of these Warrants, the holder hereof shall not be
entitled to any rights of a shareholder of the Company, including without
limitation the rights to vote or receive dividends or other distributions, and
further shall not be entitled to notice of any proceedings of the Company which
is required to be sent to shareholders of the Company.
The Purchase Price, the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of each
Warrant, and the number of warrants outstanding are subject to adjustment from
time to time upon the occurrence of any event such as a declaration of stock
dividends, reorganizations or mergers or other business combinations,
reclassification of shares, consolidations, stock splits (forward or reverse),
so that the Holder of these Warrants after such event or time shall be entitled
to receive the number and kind of shares which, if such Warrant had been
exercised immediately prior to such event, such Holder would have received or
owned. Such adjustment or adjustments shall be made successively whenever any
such event shall occur.
This Warrant Certificate and these Warrants have not been registered and
cannot be transferred or sold in public market transactions unless they are so
registered under relevant federal and state securities laws, or are sold or
transferred in private transactions satisfying an exemption from such
registration. This restriction on further sale or transfer of these Warrants
shall also be
12
applicable to and binding upon any private transferee of these Warrants during
the term hereof.
Prior to presentment for transfer of any of these Warrants to the Company
or its transfer agent, as the case may be, the Company may deem and treat the
registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof and of each Warrant
hereunder for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice
to the contrary.
Reduction of Exercise Price - The Board of Directors of the Company shall
hold and reserve the right and authority to reduce the exercise price of these
Warrants anytime during their term, and any such reduction shall be effective
for whatever time period is specified by the Board of Directors of the Company.
This Warrant Certificate and each Warrant represented hereby shall be
construed and governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota.
