THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, BA Associates, Inc. (together with
any subsequent transferees of all or any portion of this Warrant, the
"Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
hereinafter set forth, to subscribe for and purchase from CAMBEX CORPORATION,
a Massachusetts corporation (hereinafter called the "Company"), at the price
hereinafter set forth in Section 2, up to
fully paid and non-assessable shares (the "Shares") of the Company's Common
Stock, $.10 par value per share (the "Common Stock").
1. Definitions. As used herein the following term shall have the
following meaning:
"Act" means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or a successor
statute thereto and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission issued under that Act, as they each may, from time to time, be in
effect.
2. Purchase Rights. Subject to the terms hereof, the purchase
rights represented by this Warrant shall be exercisable by the Holder in
whole or in part commencing on the date hereof and ending on
.
Subject to this Section 2, this Warrant may be exercised for Shares at
a price of per share, subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 6 (the "Warrant Purchase Price").
3. Exercise of Warrant. (a) Generally. Subject to Section 2 above,
the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or
in part and from time to time, by the surrender of this Warrant and the duly
executed Notice of Exercise (the form of which is attached as Exhibit A) at
the principal office of the Company and, subject to Section 3(b), by the
payment to the Company, by wire transfer, or certified or bank check, of an
amount equal to the then applicable Warrant Purchase Price per share
multiplied by the number of Shares then being purchased. Upon exercise, the
Holder shall be entitled to receive, within a reasonable time, a certificate
or certificates, issued in the Holder's name or in such names as the Holder
may direct, for the number of Shares so purchased. The Shares so purchased
shall be deemed to be issued as of the close of business on the date on which
this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Warrant Purchase Price paid in
accordance herewith.
(b) Net Exercise Option. In lieu of exercising this Warrant or any
portion hereof, the Holder hereof shall have the right to convert this
Warrant or any portion hereof into Common Stock by executing and delivering
to the Company at its principal office the written Notice of
Exercise, specifying the portion of the Warrant to be converted, and
accompanied by this Warrant.
The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder upon such
conversion shall be computed using the following formula:
X = (P)(Y)(A-B)/A
where X = the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder for the
portion of the
Warrant being converted.
P = the portion of the Warrant being converted expressed as a decimal
fraction.
Y = the total number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant
in full.
A = the fair market value of one share of Common Stock which shall
mean (i) the fair market value of the Company's stock issuable upon
conversion of such share as of the last business day immediately prior to the
date the Notice of Exercise is received by the Company, as determined in good
faith by the Company's Board of Directors, or (ii) if the Company has
publicly traded securities at the time of the conversion, the lowest bid
price for the ten (10) trading days preceding the date of the Notice of
Exercise.
B = the Warrant Purchase Price on the date of conversion.
Any portion of this Warrant that is converted shall be immediately
canceled. This Warrant or any portion hereof shall be deemed to have been
converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date of its
surrender for conversion as provided above, and the person entitled to
receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be
treated for all purposes as Holder of such shares of record as of the close
of business on such date. As promptly as practicable after such date, the
Company shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive
the same a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. If the Warrant shall be
converted for less than the total number of shares of Common Stock then
issuable upon conversion, promptly after surrender of the Warrant upon such
conversion, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant, dated the
date hereof, evidencing the right of the Holder to the balance of the Common
Stock purchasable hereunder upon the same terms and conditions set forth
herein.
4. Shares to be Issued; Reservation of Shares. The Company
covenants that the Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance in accordance
herewith, be fully paid and non-assessable, and free from all liens and
charges with respect to the issue thereof. During the period within which
the purchase rights represented by the Warrant may be exercised, the Company
will at all times have authorized and reserved, for the purpose of issuance
upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the
exercise of the right represented by this Warrant.
5. No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares shall be issued upon
the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu thereof, a cash payment shall be made
equal to such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of such shares of
Common Stock, as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of
Directors.
6. Adjustments of Warrant Purchase Price and Number of Shares. If
there shall be any change in the Common Stock of the Company through merger,
consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split
or other change in the corporate structure of the Company, appropriate
adjustments shall be made to the number and kind of securities and property
that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been
exercised immediately before the record date for such merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split or other change
in the corporate structure of the Company. The Company or its successor
shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other
property. The new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as
nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in
this Section including, without limitation, adjustments to the Warrant
Purchase Price and to the number of securities or property issuable upon
exercise the new Warrant. The provisions of this Section shall similarly
apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions or other
events and successive dividends.
7. No Rights as Shareholders. This Warrant does not entitle the
Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company
prior to exercise of this Warrant and the payment for the Shares so
purchased. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company agrees to
transmit to the Holder such information, documents and reports as are
generally distributed to holders of the capital stock of the Company
concurrently with the distribution thereof to the shareholders. Upon valid
exercise of this Warrant and payment for the Shares so purchased in
accordance with the terms of the Warrant, the Holder or the Holder's
designee, as the case may be, shall be deemed a shareholder of the Company.
8. Sale or Transfer of the Warrant and the Shares; Legend. The
Warrant and the shares shall not be sold or transferred unless either (i)
they first shall have been registered under applicable federal and state
securities laws, or (ii) such sale or transfer is exempt from the
registration requirements of such laws. Each certificate representing any
Warrant shall bear the legend set out on page 1 hereof. Each certificate
representing any Shares shall bear a legend substantially in the following
form, as appropriate:

THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO UNDER APPLICABLE
FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION
AVAILABLE UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

be subject to additional restrictions on transfer imposed under applicable
state and federal securities law.

incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant or
stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new
Warrant or stock certificate, of like tenor, in lieu of the lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Warrant or stock certificate.
13. Representations and Warranties of Holder. By accepting this
Warrant, the Holder represents and warrants that he, she or it is acquiring
