This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:
SECTION 1. Exercise of Warrant.
1A. Exercise Rights. Prior to the tenth anniversary of the Date of
Issuance, the number of Warrants Shares with respect to which this Warrant may
be exercised shall not exceed, at the time of any exercise hereof (together with
all shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to previous exercises hereunder)

issued upon the conversion, exchange or exercise, as applicable, of the
Convertible Securities, the Floating Price Securities and the Options from the
Date of Issuance through the Exercise Time (as hereinafter defined). From the

represented by this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time
and from time to time, commencing on the Date of Issuance through 5:00 p.m.,
Nevada time, on the eleventh anniversary of the Date of Issuance, or, if such
day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (the "Exercise
Period").
1C. Exercise Procedure.
(i) This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when all
of the following items have been delivered to the Company (the "Exercise Time"):
(a) a completed Exercise Agreement, as described in
Section 1C below, executed by the Person exercising all or part of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant (the "Purchaser");
(b) this Warrant;
(c) if the Purchaser is not the Registered Holder, an
Assignment or Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit II hereto
evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser; and
(d) either (i) a check or wire transfer payable to the
Company in an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the
number of Warrant Shares being purchased upon such exercise (the
"Aggregate Exercise Price"), (ii) the surrender to the Company of debt
or equity securities or a combination of debt and equity securities of
the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries having a value
equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrant Shares being
purchased upon such exercise (which value in the case of debt securities
or any preferred stock shall be deemed to equal the aggregate
outstanding principal amount or liquidation value thereof plus all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon or accrued or declared and unpaid
dividends thereon and in the case of shares of Common Stock shall be the
Fair Market Value thereof) or (iii) the delivery of a
2
notice to the Company that the Purchaser is exercising the Warrant (or
portion thereof) by authorizing the Company to reduce the number of
Warrant Shares to be delivered to Purchaser upon such exercise of the
Warrant or portion thereof by the number of Warrant Shares having an
aggregate Fair Market Value determined as of the date immediately prior
to the date of the Exercise Time equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price.
(ii) Certificates for Warrant Shares (including, without
limitation, fractional shares) purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
delivered by the Company to the Purchaser within three Business Days after the
date of the Exercise Time. Unless this Warrant has expired or all of the
purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised, the Company shall
prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto, representing the rights
formerly represented by this Warrant which have not expired or been exercised
and shall, within such three Business Day period, deliver such new Warrant to
the Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.
(iii) The Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise
Time, and the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the
Registered Holder of such Warrant Shares at the Exercise Time.
(iv) The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder
or the Purchaser for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred
by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of
Warrant Shares; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay
any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issuance of any Warrants or any certificates representing Warrant Shares in a
name other than that of a Registered Holder, and the Company shall not be
required to issue or deliver such Warrant or certificate for Warrant Shares
unless and until the Person requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to
the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
(v) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of
this Warrant or of any Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this
Warrant. The Company shall from time to time take all such action as may be
necessary to assure that the par value per share, if any, of the unissued
Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant is at all times equal to
or less than the Exercise Price then in effect. In the event that the Company
fails to comply with its obligations set forth in the foregoing sentence, in
addition to all other rights which the Registered Holder or Purchaser may have
at law or in equity, the Purchaser may (but shall not be obligated to) purchase
Warrant Shares hereunder at par value, and the Company shall be obligated to
reimburse the Purchaser for the aggregate amount of consideration paid in
connection with such exercise in excess of the Exercise Price then in effect.
3
(vi) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any reasonable
request by the Registered Holder or Purchaser in connection with any
governmental filings or approvals required to be obtained or made by any of them
prior to or in connection with any exercise of this Warrant (including, without
limitation, making any filings or obtaining any approvals required to be made or
obtained by the Company).
(vii) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise
of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a public
offering or a sale of the Company (pursuant to a merger, sale of stock, sale of
assets or otherwise), then such exercise may at the election of the Registered
Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case
such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the
consummation of such transaction.
(viii) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized but unissued Warrant Shares and solely for the purpose of
issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. All Warrant Shares which are so
issuable shall, when issued and upon the payment of the applicable Exercise
Price, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from
all taxes, liens and charges. The Company shall take all such actions as may be
necessary to ensure that all such Warrant Shares may be so issued without
violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any
requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common
Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares may be listed (except for
official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company
upon each such issuance) or any violation by the Company of any agreement to
which the Company or any of its assets or properties may be subject. The Company
will cause the Warrant Shares, immediately upon such exercise, to be listed on
each domestic securities exchange or quotation system upon which shares of
Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares are listed or
quoted at the time of such exercise.
(ix) If the Warrant Shares issuable by reason of exercise of this
Warrant are convertible into or exchangeable for any other stock or securities,
then the Company shall, at the Purchaser's option and upon surrender of this
Warrant by such Purchaser as provided above together with any notice, statement
or payment required to effect such conversion or exchange of Warrant Shares,
deliver to such Purchaser (or as otherwise specified by such Purchaser) a
certificate or certificates representing the stock or securities into which the
Warrant Shares issuable by reason of such conversion are convertible or
exchangeable, registered in such name or names and in such denomination or
denominations as such Purchaser has specified.
1D. Exercise Agreement. Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Purchaser
shall deliver to the Company an Exercise Agreement in substantially the form set
forth in Exhibit I hereto, except that if the Warrant Shares are not to be
issued in the name of the Registered Holder, the Exercise Agreement shall also
state the name of the Person to whom the certificates
4
for the Warrant Shares are to be issued, and if the number of Warrant Shares to
be issued does not include all of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder, it
shall also state the name of the Person to whom a new Warrant for the
unexercised portion of the rights hereunder is to be issued.
SECTION 2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. In order
to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2,
and the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be subject to adjustment from time to time, as provided in this Section 2.
2A. Adjustment upon Certain Issuances of Common Stock.
(i) Issuance of Floating Price Securities at Less than the Deemed
Issue Price. If and whenever, on or after the Date of Issuance, the Company
issues any shares of Common Stock upon exercise or conversion of any Floating
Price Securities for a consideration per share less than the Deemed Issue Price,
then immediately upon such issuance, the number of Warrant Shares acquirable
hereunder shall be increased by three shares (rounded up to the nearest whole
share) for each additional four shares of Common Stock which are issued with
respect to such Floating Price Security (with such additional shares being equal
to the difference between the number of shares of Common Stock which are issued
with respect to such Floating Price Security and the number of shares of Common
Stock which would have been issued with respect to such Floating Price Security
at the Deemed Issue Price).
(ii) Issuance of Floating Price Securities at Greater than the
Deemed Issue Price. If and whenever, on or after the Date of Issuance, the
Company issues any shares of Common Stock upon exercise or conversion of any
Floating Price Securities for a consideration per share greater than the Deemed
Issue Price, then immediately upon such issuance, the number of Warrant Shares
acquirable hereunder shall be reduced by three shares (rounded down to the
nearest whole share) for each fewer four shares of Common Stock issued which are
issued with respect to such Floating Price Security (with such fewer shares
being equal to the difference between the number of shares of Common Stock which
would have been issued with respect to such Floating Price Security at the
Deemed Issue Price and the number of shares of Common Stock which are issued
with respect to such Floating Price Security). In no event shall any adjustment
be made which would result in the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder
being less than zero.
2B. Adjustment upon Expiration of Options. If and whenever, on or after
the Date of Issuance and prior to the tenth anniversary of the Date of Issuance
any Option expires unexercised, the number of Warrant Shares acquirable
hereunder shall be reduced by three quarters of a share (rounded down to the
nearest whole share) for each one share of Common Stock with respect to which
such Option remained unexercised. In no event shall any adjustment
5
be made which would result in the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder
being less than zero.
2C. Adjustment upon Payment or Cancellation of Convertible Securities.
If and whenever, on or after the Date of Issuance and prior to the tenth
anniversary of the Date of Issuance all amounts due with respect to any
Convertible Security are satisfied in full or the right to convert or exchange a
Convertible Security is canceled, the number of Warrant Shares acquirable
hereunder shall be reduced by three quarters of a share (rounded down to the
nearest whole share) for each one share of Common Stock which could have been
issued with respect to such Convertible Security. In no event shall any
adjustment be made which would result in the number of Warrant Shares issuable
hereunder being less than zero.
2D. Adjustment upon Payment or Expiration of Floating Price Securities.
Without duplication of any adjustment pursuant to Section 2A(i) or 2A(ii) above,
if and whenever, on or after the Date of Issuance and prior to the tenth
anniversary of the Date of Issuance all amounts due with respect to a Floating
Price Security are satisfied in full or the right to convert or exchange a
Floating Price Security is canceled, the number of Warrant Shares acquirable
hereunder shall be reduced by three quarters of a share (rounded down to the
nearest whole share) for each one share of Common Stock which could have been
issued with respect to such Floating Price Security. In no event shall any
adjustment be made which would result in the number of Warrant Shares issuable
hereunder being less than zero.
2E. Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any
time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or
otherwise) the Common Stock into a greater number of shares or pays a dividend
or makes a distribution to holders of the Common Stock in the form of shares of
Common Stock, then the Exercise Price and the Deemed Issue Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the
number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant (whether or
not then acquirable or subject to a contingency), as the case may be, shall be
proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock
split or otherwise) the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then the
Exercise Price and the Deemed Issue Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares
obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant (whether or not then acquirable or
subject to a contingency), as the case may be, shall be proportionately
decreased.
2F. Organic Change. Any recapitalization, reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets or other 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 an "Organic Change". Prior to
the consummation of any Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate
provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required
Holders) to ensure that such Registered Holder shall thereafter have the right
to acquire and receive upon exercise thereof, in lieu of or addition to (as
6
the case may be) the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore acquirable and
receivable upon exercise of such Registered Holder's Warrants (whether or not
then acquirable or subject to a contingency), such shares of stock, securities
or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the
number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable
(whether or not then acquirable or subject to a contingency) upon exercise of
such Registered Holder's Warrants had such Organic Change not taken place. In
any such case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Required Holders) with respect to such Registered
Holder's rights and interests to insure that the provisions hereof (including,
without limitation, Sections 2, 3 and 4) shall thereafter be applicable to the
Warrants (including, without limitation, in the case of any such Organic Change
in which the successor entity or purchasing entity is other than the Company, an
immediate adjustment of the Exercise Price to the product of the Exercise Price
immediately prior to such Organic Change multiplied by the ratio of such value
of the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such Organic Change divided by the
Fair Market Value of the Common Stock in effect immediately prior to such
Organic Change and a corresponding immediate adjustment to the number of Warrant
Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the Warrants (whether or not
then acquirable or subject to a contingency), if the value so reflected is less
than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock in effect immediately prior to
such Organic Change). The Company shall not effect any such Organic Change
unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other than
the Company) resulting from such Organic Change (including a purchaser of all or
substantially all the Company's assets) assumes by written instrument (in form
and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders) the obligation to deliver to
such Registered Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Registered Holder may be entitled
to acquire upon exercise of Warrants.
2G. Certain Adjustments to Identified Securities. Without duplication of
any adjustment pursuant to Section 2A, 2E or 2F above, if and whenever, on or
after the Date of Issuance, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable with
respect to any Identified Security increases, the number of Warrant Shares
acquirable hereunder shall be increased by one-half share for each additional
one share (rounded up to the nearest whole share) so issuable with respect to
such Identified Security.
2H. Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions
(including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights,
phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features but excluding any
Permitted Issuance), then the Company's Board of Directors shall make an
appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price, the Deemed Issue Price and the
number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant (whether or
not then acquirable or subject to a contingency) so as to protect the rights of
the Registered Holder of this Warrant; provided that no such adjustment shall
increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares issuable
upon exercise hereof.
7
2I. Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the number of Warrant
Shares or the Exercise Price, the Company shall give written notice thereof to
the Registered Holder, setting forth in reasonable detail and certifying the
calculation of such adjustment.
(ii) The Company shall give written notice to the Registered
Holder at least 30 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.
(iii) The Company shall also give written notice to the
Registered Holder at least 30 days prior to the date on which any Organic
Change, dissolution or liquidation shall take place.
SECTION 3. Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or
sells any rights or options to subscribe for or to purchase (including, without
limitation, the issuance of any notes or other debt instruments convertible into
or payable in) Common Stock or any stock or other securities convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock (including without limitation convertible common
stock) or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property
(other than pursuant to a Permitted Issuance) pro rata to the record holders of
the Common Stock which is also granted, issued or sold (whether or not
immediately or subject to a contingency) to the holders of, or adjusts in any
way, any of the Identified Securities (the "Purchase Rights"), then the
Registered Holder shall be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to
such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Registered Holder
would have acquired if such Registered Holder had held the maximum number of
Warrant Shares acquirable (whether or not then acquirable or subject to a
contingency) 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.

selected by the two firms so chosen by the Required Holders and the Company. In
each such case, the firm calculating Fair Market Value shall submit to the

shall not entitle the Registered Holder hereof to any voting rights or other

SECTION 6. Warrant Transferable. Subject to the transfer conditions
referred to in the legend endorsed hereon, this Warrant and all rights hereunder
