date hereof through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder shall be
entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, shares
of Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4, by

Exercise Price.
2. Procedure for Exercise.
2.1 Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise. The Company
agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as
of the close of business on the date on which both the Exercise Notice and
payment have been made for such shares. As soon as practicable after the
exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within 3 business
days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any
applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to
the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable
transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a
certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which
such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise.
2.2. Exercise.
Payment may be made either in cash or by certified or official bank
check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate
Exercise Price for the number of Common Shares specified in such form (as such
exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number
of shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder per the terms of this Warrant)
and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly
authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.
3. Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
3.1. Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case at any time or
from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b)
consolidate with or merge into any other person or entity, or (c) transfer all
or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person or entity
under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company,
then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a
transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby
the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at
any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger
or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in
lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior
to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and
property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon
such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if
such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all
subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.
2
3.2. Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company following
the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the
Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be
delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrant after the effective date of
such dissolution pursuant to Section 3.1 to a bank or trust company having its
principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the Holder of the Warrant.
3.3. Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger
or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this
Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms
hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of
dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be
binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the
case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the
event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the
consummation of the transactions described in this Section 3, then only in such
event will the Company's securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrant be delivered to the Trustee
as contemplated by Section 3.2.
4. Adjustments for Stock Splits, Combinations, etc. In the event that the
Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such
event, the Exercise Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such
event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Exercise Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
product so obtained shall thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The
Exercise Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the
happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4.
The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to
receive shall be increased to a number determined by multiplying the number of
shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator
is the Exercise Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this
Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Exercise Price in effect
on the date of such exercise.
3
5. Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or
readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the
exercise of the Warrant, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its
Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment
or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail
the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a
statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any
additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed
to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Exercise Price
and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this
Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as
adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith
mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder of the Warrant and any
Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).
6. Reservation of Stock Issuable on Exercise of Warrant. The Company will
at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the
exercise of the Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time
to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.
7. Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable
securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be
transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor") with respect to any
or all of the shares underlying this Warrant. On the surrender for exchange of
this Warrant, with the Transferor's endorsement in the form of Exhibit B
attached hereto (the "Transferor Endorsement Form") and together with evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable
securities laws, which shall include, without limitation, a legal opinion from
the Transferor's counsel that such transfer is exempt from the registration
requirements of applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense but with
payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes) will issue and
deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant of like
tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such
Transferor Endorsement Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on
the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on
the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.
8. Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on
delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form
and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender
and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

9. Registration Rights. The Holder of this Warrant has been granted
certain registration rights by the Company. These registration rights are set
forth in a Common Stock Purchase Agreement entered into by the Company and
Purchaser of the Company's Common Stock at or prior to the issue date of this
Warrant.
10. Maximum Exercise. The Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this
Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common
Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise date,
and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made on
an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and
its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of
the Company on such date. For the purposes of the proviso to the immediately
preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation
13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to
aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than 4.99%.
11. Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to each holder of
the Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other
Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging
this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to
Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange
or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.
12. Transfer on the Company's Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on
the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as
the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary.
13. Notices, etc. All notices and other communications from the Company to
the Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first class registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have been furnished to
the Company in writing by such holder or, until any such Holder furnishes to the
Company an address, then to, and at the address of, the last Holder of this
Warrant who has so furnished an address to the Company.
14. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at any time
during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any
amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors
of the Company.
5
15. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed,
waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the
party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination
is sought. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of State of Texas without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
Any action brought concerning the transactions contemplated by this Warrant
shall be brought only in the state courts of Texas or in the federal courts
located in the state of Texas. The individuals executing this Warrant on behalf
of the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive
trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other
party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs. In the event that any provision
of this Warrant is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule
of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it
may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute
or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable
under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Warrant. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of
reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way
affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. The Company
acknowledges that legal counsel participated in the preparation of this Warrant
and, therefore, stipulates that the rule of construction that ambiguities are to
be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the
interpretation of this Warrant to favor any party against the other party.
