it becomes aware, constituting non-public information (whether or not requested
of the Company specifically or generally during the course of due diligence by
such persons or entities), which, if not disclosed in the prospectus included in

such persons or entities from notifying the Company of their opinion that based

required to be stated in the Registration Statement or necessary to make the
statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading.

date, this Warrant (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this
Warrant in the case of its loss, theft, or destruction); provided that if such
Warrant Shares are to be issued in any name other than that of the registered
holder of this Warrant, such issuance shall be deemed a transfer and the
provisions of Section 7 shall be applicable. In the event of any exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant in compliance with this Section 2, a
certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased, in such
denominations as may be requested by the holder hereof and registered in the
name of, or as directed by, the holder, shall be delivered at the Company's
expense to, or as directed by, such holder as soon as practicable after such
rights shall have been so exercised, and in any event no later than five (5)
business days after the Company's receipt of the Exercise Notice, the Aggregate
Exercise Price and this Warrant (or indemnification undertaking with respect to
this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) Upon delivery of the
Exercise Notice and Aggregate Exercise Price referred to in clause (ii) (A)
above or notification to the Company of a Cashless exercise referred to in
clause (ii) (B) above, the holder of this Warrant shall be deemed for all
corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares
with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date
of delivery of this Warrant as required by clause (iii) above or the
certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares. In the case of a dispute as to the
determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Average Market Price of a
security or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall
promptly issue to the holder the number of shares of Common Stock that is not
disputed and shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations
to the holder via facsimile within five (5) business days of receipt of the
holder's subscription notice. If the holder and the Company are unable to agree
upon the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or Average Market Price or
arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares within five (5) business days of
such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the
holder, then the Company shall immediately submit via facsimile (i) the disputed
determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Average Market Price to an
independent, reputable investment banking firm or (ii) the disputed arithmetic
calculation of the Warrant Shares to its independent, outside accountant. The
Company shall cause the investment banking firm or the accountant, as the case
may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the
3
Company and the holder of the results no later than forty-eight (48) hours from
the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such
investment bank's or accountant's determination or calculation, as the case may
be, shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error and the Company shall be
liable for the costs and expenses related to such determination or calculation.
(b) Unless the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or
shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and
in any event no later than five (5) business days after any exercise and at its
own expense, issue a new Warrant identical in all respects to the Warrant
exercised except (i) it shall represent rights to purchase the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under the Warrant
exercised, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such Warrant
is exercised, and (ii) the holder thereof shall be deemed for all corporate
purposes to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares immediately
prior to the close of business on the date on which the Warrant is surrendered
and payment of the amount due in respect of such exercise and any applicable
taxes is made, irrespective of the date of delivery of certificates evidencing
such Warrant Shares, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a
date when the stock transfer books of the Company are properly closed, such
person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Warrant Shares at the
opening of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer
books are open. Upon presentation of a duly executed Subscription Form in the
Form of Exhibit A to this Warrant, the holder shall be entitled to exercise this
Warrant in whole or in part, if the holder shall have previously exercised and
surrendered this Warrant and the Company shall not have issued a new Warrant
representing the number of shares issuable following such prior exercise.
(c) No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock issued
upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole
number.
(d) If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue
to holder on a timely basis as described under this Section 2, a certificate for
the number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder is entitled upon the
holder's exercise of this, the Company shall, in addition to any other remedies
under this Agreement or otherwise available to such holder pay as additional
damages in cash to such holder for each day such issuance is not timely effected
an amount equal to .25% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of
Common Stock not issued to the holder on a timely basis and to which the holder
is entitled, and (B) the sum derived by subtracting (1) the Warrant exercise
price then in effect, from (2) the average of the closing bid price of the
Common Stock on the last possible date which the Company could have issued
Common Stock, as the case may be, to the holder without violating this Section
2.
(e) The Company shall not effect any exercise of any Warrant and no holder
of any Warrant shall have the right to exercise any Warrant pursuant to Section
2 to the extent that after giving to such exercise such person (together with
such Persons affiliates) (A) would beneficially owned in excess of 4.9% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock following such conversion and (B) would have
acquired, through exercise of any Warrant or otherwise, in excess of 4.9% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock following such exercise during the 60-day
period ending on and including such exercise date. For purposes of the foregoing
sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a person
and its affiliates or acquired by a person and its affiliates, as the case may
be, shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of the Warrants
4
with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but
shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon
(i) exercise of the remaining, non exercisable Warrants beneficially owned by
such person and its affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the
unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
subject to limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limit contained
herein beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates. Except as set forth
in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this section 2(e), beneficial
ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13 (d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, each Exercise Notice shall constitute a
representation by the holder submitting such Exercise Notice that, after giving
effect to such Exercise Notice (A) the holder will not beneficially own (as
determined in accordance with this Section 2(e)) and (B) during the 60-day
period ending on and including such exercise date, the holder will not have
acquired, through exercise of any Warrant or otherwise, a number of shares of
Common Stock in excess of 4.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as
reflected in the Company's most recent Form 10-QSB or Form 10-KSB, as the case
may be, or more recent public release or other public notice by the Company
setting forth the number of Shares of Common Stock outstanding, but after giving
effect to exercise of any Warrant by such holder since the date as of which such
numbers of outstanding shares of the Common Stock was reported.
Section 3. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company hereby covenants
and agrees as follows:
(a) This Warrant is, duly authorized and validly issued.
(b) All Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect
to the issue thereof.
(c) During the period within which the rights represented by this
Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and
reserved at least the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for the
exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par value of
said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Warrant
Exercise Price.
(d) The Company shall promptly secure the listing of the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon each national
securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, or
over-the-counter-bulletin board upon which shares of Common Stock are then
listed or quoted (subject to official notice of the over-the-counter bulletin
board of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant) and shall maintain, so long as
any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed or quoted, such listing or
quotation of all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall so list or obtain quotation on
each such national securities exchange, automated quotation system or
over-the-counter bulletin board, as the case may be, and shall maintain such
listing in quotation of, any other shares of capital stock of the Company
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any shares of the
same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange, automated
quotation system or over-the-counter bulletin board.
(e) The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of
Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any
5
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of
any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this
Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by
the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the
holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the
tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of
Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise
Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid
and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(f) This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the
Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of
the Company's assets.
(g) If at any time the Company proposes to file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own
account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its
securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or their equivalents at such
time relating to securities to be issued solely in connection with any
acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in
connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans) the Company shall
promptly send to the Holder's written notice of the Company's intention to file
a registration statement and of the holder's rights under this section and, if
within five (5) days after receipt of such notice, the holder hereof shall so
request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all
or any part of the Common Stock underlying this Warrant the holder requests to
be registered. If a registration pursuant this section is to be an underwritten
public offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing,
that in their reasonable good faith opinion, marketing or other factors dictate
that a limitation on the number of shares of Company common stock which may be
included in the registration statement is necessary to facilitate and not
adversely affect the proposed offering, then the Company shall include in such
registration : (1) first, all securities the Company proposes to sell for its
own account, (2) second, up to the full number of securities proposed to be
registered for the account of the holders of securities entitled to inclusion of
their securities requested to be registered by the holder hereof and other
holders of securities entitled to participate in the registration, as of the
date hereof, drawn from them pro rata based on the number each has requested to
be included in such registration.
Section 4. Taxes. The Company shall not be required to pay any tax or
taxes attributable to the initial issuance of the Warrant Shares or any
permitted transfer involved in the issue or delivery of any certificates for
Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder hereof or upon
any permitted transfer of this Warrant.
Section 5. Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder. Except as otherwise
specifically provided herein, no holder, as such, of this Warrant shall be
entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the
Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be
construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a
stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any
corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification
of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of
meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the
issuance to
6
the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he or she is then
entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant.
In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as
imposing any liabilities on such holder to purchase any securities or as a
stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company
or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 5, the Company will
provide the holder of this Warrant with copies of the same notices and other
information given to the stockholders of the Company generally,
contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.
Section 6. Representations of Holder. The holder of this Warrant, by
the acceptance hereof, represents (and any assignor shall represent) that it is
acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares for its own account for investment
purposes and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any
distribution hereof, and not with any present intention of distributing any of
the same. The holder of this Warrant further represents (and any assignor shall
represent), by acceptance hereof, that, as of this date, such holder is an
"accredited investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(1) of Regulation D
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act
(an "Accredited Investor"). Upon exercise of this Warrant, the holder shall, if
requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the
Company, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired solely for the
holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment,
and not with a view toward distribution or resale and that such holder is an
Accredited Investor. If such holder cannot make such representations because
they would be factually incorrect, it shall be a condition to such holder's
exercise of the Warrant that the Company receive such other representations as
the Company considers reasonably necessary to assure the Company that the
issuance of its securities upon exercise of the Warrant shall not violate any
United States Federal or state securities laws.
Section 7. Ownership and Transfer.
(a) The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or
such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the
holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record
the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued,
as well as the name and address of each permissible transferee. The Company may
treat the person in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the
owner and holder thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary, but in all events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with
the terms of this Warrant.
(b) This Warrant and the rights granted to the holder hereof are
transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant, together with
a properly executed warrant power in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto;
provided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall subject to the
conditions set forth in Section 6 above and Section 7(c) below.
(c) The holder of this Warrant understands that this Warrant has not
been and is not expected to be, registered under the Securities Act or any state
securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred
unless (a) subsequently registered thereunder, or (b) such holder shall have
delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form,
scope and substance to the Company, to the effect that the securities to be
sold, assigned or
7
transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from
such registration. Any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act may be made only in accordance with the
terms of said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of
such securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through
whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is
defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with some other exemption
under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission thereunder; and neither the Company nor any other person is
under any obligation to register the Series A Preferred Share Warrants under the
Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and
conditions of any exemption thereunder except as set forth in Section 7(d)
below.
(d) The Company is obligated to register the Warrant Shares for resale
under the Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement dated as
of June 12 , 2000, by and between the Company and the Buyers listed on the
signature page thereto (the "Registration Rights Agreement") and the initial
holder of this Warrant (and certain assignees thereof) is entitled to the
registration rights in respect of the Warrant Shares as set forth in the
Registration Rights Agreement.
Section 8. Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price. In order to prevent
dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Warrant Exercise Price
shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a) Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price upon Subdivision or
Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time after the date of
issuance of this Warrant, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
re-capitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and
the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant
will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time after the date of
issuance of this Warrant combines (by combination, reverse stock split or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares
of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately
decreased.
(b) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
Any re-capitalization, reorganization reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person or
other similar transaction which is effected in such a way that holders of Common
Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation)
stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is
referred to herein as in "Organic Change." Prior to the consummation of any
Organic Change, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that, upon
the consummation of such Organic Change, each of the holders of the Warrants
will thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of the Common
Stock, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable
with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock
immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the Warrants
had such Organic Change not taken place. In any such case, the Company will make
appropriate provision with respect to such holders' rights and interests to
insure that the provisions of this Section 8(b) will thereafter be applicable to
the Warrants.
8
(c) Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Warrant Exercise
Price pursuant to this Section 8, the Company will give written notice thereof
to the holder of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail and certifying
the calculation of such adjustment.
(ii) The Company will give written notice to the holder of
this Warrant at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which the Company
closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or
distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata
subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to
vote with respect to any Organic Change, dissolution or liquidation, except that
in no event shall such notice be provided to such holder prior to such
information being made known to the public.
(iii) The Company will also give written notice to the holder
of this Warrant at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which any Organic
Change, dissolution or liquidation will take place.
Section 9. (a) Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants,
issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock,
warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any
class of Common Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then the holder of this Warrant
will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights,
the aggregate Purchase Rights which such holder could have acquired if such
holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete
exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on which a record is taken
for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record
is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be
determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.
Section 10. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If this
Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company shall, on receipt
of an indemnification undertaking, issue a new Warrant of like denomination and
tenor as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.
Section 11. Notice. Any notices, consents, waivers, or other
communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Warrant
must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered (i) upon receipt,
when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile, provided a

business on the Expiration Date, except that notwithstanding any other
provisions hereof, the provisions of Section 7 shall continue in full force and
effect after such date as to any Warrant Shares or other securities issued upon

the provisions of the Warrants may be amended and the Company may take any
action herein prohibited, or omitted to perform any act herein required to be
performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the
holders of Warrants representing a majority of the shares of Common Stock
obtainable upon exercise of the Warrants then outstanding, provided that no such
action may increase the Warrant Exercise Price of the Warrants or decrease the
number of shares or class of stock obtainable upon exercise of any warrants with
out the written consent of the holder of such warrant.

headings of the several sections of this Warrant are for convenience of

Warrant shall be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of New
York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision .
