Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement, copies of which are available from
the Company.
2. Reservation of Warrant Shares; Fully Paid Shares; Taxes.
The Company hereby represents that it has, and until expiration of this Warrant
agrees that it shall, reserve for issuance or delivery upon exercise of this
Warrant, such number of Notes and such number of shares of Common Stock as shall

conversion of the Notes issuable upon exercise hereof in full, and agrees that
all Warrant Notes and shares of Common Stock so issued and/or delivered will be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and further agrees to pay all

3. [Reserved.]
4. Limited Transferability. This Warrant may not be sold,
transferred, assigned or hypothecated by the Holder except in compliance with
the provisions of the Act and the applicable state securities "blue sky" laws,
and is so transferable only upon the books of the Company which it shall cause
to be maintained for such purpose. The Company may treat the registered Holder
of this Warrant as he or it appears on the Company's books at any time as the
Holder for all purposes. The Company shall permit any Holder of a Warrant or his
duly authorized attorney, upon written request during ordinary business hours,
to inspect and copy or make extracts from its books showing the registered
holders of Warrants. All Warrants issued upon the transfer or assignment of this
Warrant will be dated the same date as this Warrant, and all rights of the
holder thereof shall be identical to those of the Holder.

this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company, if lost,

6. Investment Intent.
(a) The Holder represents, by accepting this Warrant, that it
understands that this Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of
this Warrant have not been registered for sale under Federal or state securities
laws and are being offered and sold to the Holder pursuant to one or more
exemptions from the registration requirements of such securities laws. The
Holder is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). In the absence of an effective
registration of such securities or an exemption therefrom, any certificates for
such securities shall bear the legend set forth on the subscription form hereof.
The Holder understands that it must bear the economic risk of its investment in
this Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant for an
indefinite period of time, as this Warrant and such securities have not been
registered under Federal or state securities laws and therefore cannot be sold
unless subsequently registered under such laws, unless as exemption from such
registration is available.
(b) The Holder, by his acceptance of this Warrant, represents
to the Company that it is acquiring this Warrant and will acquire any Notes
obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant and any shares of Common Stock
obtainable upon conversion of such Notes for its own account for investment and
not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in
violation of the Act. The Holder agrees that this Warrant and any such Notes and
Common Stock will not be sold or otherwise transferred unless (i) a registration
statement with respect to such transfer is effective under the Act and any
applicable state securities laws or (ii) such sale or transfer is made pursuant
to one or more exemptions from the Act.
7. Status of Holder. This Warrant does not confer upon the
Holder any right to vote or to consent to or receive notice as a stockholder of
the Company, as such, in respect of any matters whatsoever, or any other rights
or liabilities as a stockholder, prior to the exercise hereof.
8. Notices. No notice or other communication under this
Warrant shall be effective unless, but any notice or other communication shall

designated in writing to the Company.
9. Headings. The headings of this Warrant have been inserted
as a matter of convenience and shall not affect the construction hereof.

construed in accordance with the law of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law thereof.
