pursuant to which any class or series of equity securities of such Person is
converted into the right to receive other securities, cash or other property.

"STRIKE DIFFERENTIAL" shall mean, with respect to any day, the amount
by which the closing price of the Common Stock on such day (or in the event that

(the "Termination Date"), by the delivery of this Warrant and the Form of
Subscription annexed hereto as Schedule I to the principal office of the Company
at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxx 000, Xx. Lauderdale, Florida (or at such
other office of the Company as the Company shall designate by notice in writing
to the Holder hereof at the address of such Xxxxxx appearing on the books of the
Company), and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price for the shares
thereby purchased ("Cash Exercise"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time
and from time to time, the Holder hereof may elect to exercise this Warrant by
delivering to the Company this Warrant and the Form of Subscription annexed
hereto as Schedule I for conversion without payment of cash or other
consideration ("Warrant Rights Exercise"). In the event of a Warrant Rights

3
4
not a trading day with respect to the Common Stock, on the last trading day with
respect to the Common Stock preceding such day).
The Company covenants that the shares of Common Stock purchased
pursuant to this Section 2.0 shall be and be deemed to be issued to the Holder
hereof as the record owner of such Common Stock as of the close of business of
the Company on the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as
aforesaid. The Company further covenants that all shares of Common Stock which
may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant be fully paid and nonassessable and free from
all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof.
The certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased shall be
delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding ten (10)
days, after the date on which the rights represented by this Warrant shall have
been so exercised.
Payment of the applicable Exercise Price may be made (a) by cash, or
(b) by certified check, or bank cashier's check, payable to the Company.
In the event of a partial exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall
issue and deliver to Holder, on or within ten (10) days of the date on which
such Warrant was exercised, and in substitution of such Warrant, a new warrant
or warrants (at Holder's option), of even date herewith and with the terms
identical to the terms hereof, except that such new warrant or warrants shall be
exercisable, in the aggregate, for a percentage of all issued and outstanding
Common Stock, subject to the antidilution provisions of Section 6.0 hereof,
which represents the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which this
Warrant has not yet been exercised.
SECTION 3.0. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares shall
be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. With respect to any fraction of a
share called for upon the exercise of this Warrant, an amount equal to such
fraction multiplied by the closing price of the Common Stock on the day of such
exercise (or in the event that such day is not a trading day with respect to the
Common Stock, on the last trading day with respect to the Common Stock preceding
such day) shall be paid to the Holder hereof in cash by the Company.
SECTION 4.0. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for
shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without
charge to the Holder hereof for any issue or transfer taxes or any other
incidental expenses in respect of the issuance of such certificates to and in
the name of the registered Holder of this Warrant, all of which transfer taxes
and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued
in the name of the Holder of this Warrant. Certificates will be issued in a name
other than that of the Holder upon the request of the Holder and payment by the
Holder of any applicable transfer taxes.

SECTION 5.0. Certain Obligations of the Company. The Company covenants
that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and
unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuing upon exercise of the
purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable and deliverable hereunder.
The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation
or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance of
capital stock or sale of treasury stock (otherwise than upon exercise of this
Warrant) or sale of assets, or by any other voluntary act or deed, avoid or seek
to avoid the performance or observance of any of the covenants, stipulations or
conditions in this Warrant to be observed or performed by the Company. The
Company will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the
provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all other action which may be
necessary in order to protect the rights of the Holder of this Warrant against
dilution consistent with the provisions of this Warrant.
The Company covenants and agrees to maintain, on a current basis, the
reports, notices and statements required to be filed with the Securities
Exchange Commission.
The Company will maintain an office where presentations and demands to
or upon the Company in respect of this Warrant may be made. The Company will
give notice in writing to the registered Holder of this Warrant, at the address
of the registered Holder of this Warrant appearing on the books of the Company,
of each change in the locations of such office.
SECTION 6.0. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant
and the Exercise Price thereof shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
after the date hereof upon the happening of certain events, as follows:
6.1. Adjustments to Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be subject
to adjustment as follows:
(a) Stock Dividends. In case the Company after the date hereof
shall pay a dividend or make a distribution to all holders of shares of Common
Stock in shares of Common Stock, then in any such case the Exercise Price in
effect at the opening of business on the day following the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution
shall be reduced to a price obtained by multiplying such Exercise Price by a
fraction of which (x) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding at the close of business on such record date and (y) the
denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding and the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such
dividend or distribution, such reduction to become effective immediately after
the opening of business on the day following such record date. The Company will
not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in
the treasury of the Company.
5
6
(b) Stock Splits and Reverse Splits. In case after the date
hereof outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater
number of shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect at the opening of
business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision becomes
effective shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely, in case after the
date hereof outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller
number of shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect at the opening of
business on the day following the day upon which such combination becomes
effective shall be proportionately increased, such reduction or increase, as the
case may be, shall entitle the Holder hereof to receive the number and kind of
shares which the Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive if
this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such subdivision or
combination. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately prior to the
opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or
combination becomes effective.
(c) Issuances Below Market. In case the Company after the date
hereof shall fix a record date of the issuance of rights or warrants to all
holders of its shares of Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or
purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Closing Price
per share on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to
receive such rights or warrants, the Exercise Price in effect at the opening of
business on the day following such record date shall be adjusted to a price
obtained by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction of which (x) the
numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close
of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock that
the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares to be offered would
purchase at such Closing Price and (y) the denominator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on such record date
plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock to be offered for
subscription or purchase, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior
to the opening of business on the day following such record date; provided,
however, that no adjustment shall be made if the Company issues or distributes
to each Holder the rights or warrants that each Holder would have been entitled
to receive had the Warrants held by such Holder been exercised prior to such
record date. The Company shall not issue any rights or warrants in respect of
shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
(d) Special Dividends. In case the Company after the date
hereof shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders
of shares of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection
with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation) evidences of its indebtedness, securities or assets (excluding any
dividends paid out of retained earnings), or subscription rights or warrants
(excluding those referred to in subsection (c) above), in each such case the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution shall be adjusted to a price obtained by multiplying such Exercise
Price by a fraction of which (x) the numerator shall be the Closing Price per
share of Common Stock on such record date, less the then-current fair market
value as of such record date (as determined by the Board
6
7
of Directors in its good faith judgment) of the portion of assets, evidences of
indebtedness, securities or subscription rights or warrants so distributed
applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (y) the denominator shall be such
Closing Price, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the
opening of business on the day following such record date; provided, however,
that no adjustment shall be made (1) if the Company issues or distributes to
each Holder the subscription rights referred to above that each Holder would
have been entitled to receive had the Warrants held by such Holder been
exercised prior to such record date, or (2) if the Company grants to each Holder
the right to receive, upon the exercise of the Warrants held by such Holder at
any time after the distribution of the evidences of indebtedness or assets or
equity securities referred to above, the evidences of indebtedness or assets or
equity securities that such Holder would have been entitled to receive had such
Warrants been exercised prior to such record date. The Company shall provide any
Holder, upon receipt of a written request therefor, with any indenture or other
instrument defining the rights of the holders of any indebtedness, assets,
subscription rights or equity securities referred to in this subsection (d).
(e) Other Distributions. In case the Company after the date
hereof shall distribute evidences of its indebtedness, assets, equity
securities, rights or warrants to any Person in connection with or as a result
of or related to any pending or future claims, suits, actions or proceedings
against the Company or any of its subsidiaries, then in each such case the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date
of such distribution shall be adjusted to a price obtained by multiplying such
Exercise Price by a fraction of which (x) the numerator shall be the Closing
Price per share of Common Stock on such date, less the then-current fair market
value as of such date (as determined by the Board of Directors in its good faith
judgment) of the portion of such evidences of indebtedness, assets, equity
securities, rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one share of Common
Stock, and (y) the denominator shall be such Closing Price, such adjustment to
become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day
following the date of such distribution. The intent of this subsection is that
if any evidences of indebtedness, securities, assets, rights or warrants are
distributed in connection with or as a result of or related to any pending or
future claims, suits, actions or proceedings against the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, that the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to exercise this
Warrant for the same percentage of the outstanding capital stock of the Company
for the same aggregate exercise price immediately after such distribution as the
Holder of this Warrant could acquire immediately prior to such distribution.
(f) Tender or Exchange Offer. In case a tender or exchange
offer made by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company for all or any
portion of the Common Stock shall be consummated and such tender offer shall
involve an aggregate consideration having a fair market value (as determined by
the Board of Directors in its good faith judgment) at the last time (the "Offer
Time") tenders may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may
be amended) that, together with the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market
value (as determined by the Board of Directors in its good faith judgment), as
of the Offer Time, of consideration payable in respect of any tender or exchange
offer by the Company or any such subsidiary for all
7
8
or any portion of the Common Stock consummated preceding the Offer Time and in
respect of which no Exercise Price adjustment pursuant to this subsection (f)
has been made, exceeds 5% of the product of the Closing Price of the Common
Stock at the Offer Time multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding (including any tendered shares) at the Offer Time, the Exercise
Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by
multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Offer Time by
a fraction of which (x) the numerator shall be (i) the product of the Closing
Price of the Common Stock at the Offer Time multiplied by the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) at the Offer Time
minus (ii) the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate
consideration payable to stockholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum
specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of all shares validly
tendered and not withdrawn as of the Offer Time (the shares deemed so accepted,
up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "Purchased Shares") and (y) the
denominator shall be the product of (i) such Closing Price at the Offer Time
multiplied by (ii) such number of outstanding shares at the Offer Time minus the
number of Purchased Shares, such reduction to become effective immediately prior
to the opening of business on the day following the Offer Time. For purposes of
this subsection (f), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time
outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but
shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of
fractions of shares of Common Stock.
(g) Other Dilutive Events. In case any event shall occur as to
which the provisions of Section 6.1 are not strictly applicable but the failure
to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights represented
by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles hereof
then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent
certified public accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the
regular auditors of the Company), which shall give its opinion upon the
adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and
principles established in Section 6.1, necessary to preserve, without dilution,
the purchase rights represented by this Warrant. Upon receipt of such opinion,
the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and
shall make the adjustments described therein. Notwithstanding anything contained
in this subsection (g) to the contrary, this subsection (g) shall not apply to
any issuance of Common Stock by the Company for which the Company has received
consideration equal to the fair market value of such Common Stock on the date of
issuance, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.
(h) No Dilution or Impairment. 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 other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the
Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all
the provisions of this Section 6.1 and in the taking of all such action as may
be necessary or appropriate in order
8
9
to protect the purchase privilege of the Holder of this Warrant against dilution
or other impairment.
(i) Closing Price Determination. For the purpose of any
computation under subsections (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 6.1, the Closing
Price of Common Stock on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the
Closing Prices for the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding
such date; provided, however, that (i) if the "ex" date for any event (other
than the issuance or distribution requiring such computation) that requires an
adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6 occurs on or after
the tenth (10th) trading day prior to the day in question and prior to the "ex"
date for the issuance or distribution requiring such computation, the Closing
Price for each trading day prior to the "ex" date for such other event shall be
adjusted by multiplying such Closing Price by the same fraction which the
Exercise Price is so required to be adjusted as a result of such other event,
(ii) if the "ex" date for any event (other than the issuance or distribution
requiring such computation) that requires an adjustment to the Exercise Price
pursuant to this Section 6 occurs on or after the "ex" date for the issuance or
distribution requiring such computation and on or prior to the day in question,
the Closing Price for each trading day on and after the "ex" date for such other
event shall be adjusted by multiplying such Closing Price by the reciprocal of
the fraction by which the Exercise Price is so required to be adjusted as a
result of such other event, and (iii) if the "ex" date for the issuance or
distribution requiring such computation is on or prior to the day in question,
after taking into account any adjustment required pursuant to clause (ii) of
this proviso, the Closing Price for each trading day on or after such "ex" date
shall be adjusted by adding thereto the fair market value on the day in question
(as determined by the Board of Directors in a manner consistent with any
determination of such value for the purposes of subsection (d) of this Section
6.1) of the assets, evidences of indebtedness, equity securities or subscription
rights being distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock as of the close
of business on the day before such "ex" date. For the purposes of any
computation under subsection (f) of this Section 6.1, the Closing Price on any
date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Prices for the ten
(10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Offer Time; provided,
however, that if the "ex" date for any event (other than the tender or exchange
offer requiring such computation) that requires an adjustment to the Exercise
Price pursuant to this Section 6 occurs on or after the tenth (10th) trading day
prior to the Offer Time for the tender or exchange offer requiring such
computation, the Closing Price for each trading day prior to the "ex" date for
such other event shall be adjusted by multiplying such Closing Price by the same
fraction by which the Exercise Price is so required to be adjusted as a result
of such other event. For purposes of this subsection (g), the term "ex" date,
(i) when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date
on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the relevant exchange or in the
relevant market from which the Closing Price was obtained without the right to
receive such issuance or distribution, (ii) when used with respect to any
subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock, means the first date on
which the Common Stock trades regular way on such exchange or in such market
after the time at which such subdivision or combination becomes effective, and
(iii) when used with respect to any tender or exchange offer means the first
date on which the Common Stock trades
9
10
regular way on such exchange or in such market after the Offer Time of such
tender or exchange offer.
(j) Minimum Adjustment Requirement. No adjustment shall be
required unless such adjustment would result in an increase or decrease of at
least $0.01 in the Exercise Price then subject to adjustment; provided, however,
that any adjustments that are not made by reason of this subsection (j) shall be
carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. In case the
Company shall at any time issue shares of Common Stock by way of dividend on any
stock of the Company or subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, said amount of $0.01 specified in the preceding sentence (as theretofore
increased or decreased, if said amount shall have been adjusted in accordance
with the provisions of this subsection (h)) shall forthwith be proportionately
increased in the case of such a combination or decreased in the case of such a
subdivision or stock dividend so as appropriately to reflect the same.
(k) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 6.1
shall be made to the nearest $0.01.
(l) Certificate. Whenever an adjustment in the Exercise Price
is made as required or permitted by the provisions of this Section 6.1, the
Company shall promptly cause a certificate of its chief financial officer
setting forth (A) the adjusted Exercise Price as provided in this Section 6.1
and a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation
thereof and (B) the number of shares of Common Stock (or portions thereof)
purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant after such adjustment in the Exercise
Price in accordance with Section 6.2 hereof and the record date therefor to be
mailed to the Holder of this Warrant at the address shown on the registration
books of the Company. Such certificate, in the absence of manifest error, shall
be conclusive and final evidence of the correctness of such adjustment.
(m) Section 305. Anything in this Section 6.1 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled, but not required, to make such
reductions in the Exercise Price, in addition to those required by this Section
6.1, as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable, including, without
limitation, in order that any dividend in or distribution of shares of Common
Stock or shares of capital stock of any class other than Common Stock,
subdivision, reclassification or combination of shares of Common Stock, issuance
of rights or warrants, or any other transaction having a similar effect, shall
not be treated as a distribution of property by the Company to its stockholders
under Section 305 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any
successor provision and shall not be taxable to them.
(n) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for purposes of taking any action that
requires an adjustment of the Exercise Price under this Section 6, and shall,
thereafter and before the effective date of such action, legally abandon its
plan to take such action, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required
10
11
by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made
in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.
6.2. Adjustment to Number of Shares of Stock. Upon each adjustment of
the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof the number of shares of Common
Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant outstanding prior to the
effectiveness of such adjustment shall be adjusted to the number, calculated to
the nearest one-hundredth of a share, obtained by (x) multiplying the number of
shares of Common Stock purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment upon the
exercise of this Warrant by the Exercise Price in effect prior to such
adjustment and (y) dividing the product so obtained by the Exercise Price in
effect after such adjustment of the Exercise Price.
6.3. Organic Change.
(a) Company Survives. Upon the consummation of an Organic
Change (other than a transaction in which the Company is not the surviving
entity), lawful provision shall be made as part of the terms of such transaction
whereby the terms of this Warrant shall be modified, without payment of any
additional consideration therefor, so as to provide that upon exercise this
Warrant following the consummation of such Organic Change, the Holders of such
Warrant shall have the right to purchase only the kind and amount of securities,
cash and other property receivable upon such Organic Change by a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock into which such Warrant might have been
exercised immediately prior to such Organic Change, assuming such holder of
Common Stock (i) is not a Person with which the Company consolidated or into
which the Company merged or which merged into the Company or to which a sale,
transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company was
made, as the case may be (a "Constituent Person"), or an affiliate of a
Constituent Person, and (ii) failed to exercise his or her rights of election,
if any, as to the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property
receivable upon such Organic Change (provided that if the kind and amount of
securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Organic Change is not
the same for each share of Common Stock held immediately prior to such Organic
Change by others than a Constituent Person or an affiliate thereof and in
respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised
("Non-Electing Shares"), then for the purpose of this subsection (a) the kind
and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Organic
Change by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so
receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing Shares); provided,
however, that no adjustment shall be made as a result of such Organic Change to
the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock notwithstanding any
provision of Section 6 hereof unless any event requiring any such adjustment
shall have occurred or shall occur prior to, upon or after such Organic Change.
Lawful provision also shall be made as part of the terms of the Organic Change
so that all other terms of this Warrant shall remain in full force and effect
following such an Organic Change. The provisions of this Section 6.3(a) shall
similarly apply to successive Organic Changes.
11
12
(b) Company Does Not Survive. The Company shall not enter into
an Organic Change that is a transaction in which the Company is not the
surviving entity unless lawful provision shall be made as part of the terms of
such transaction whereby the surviving entity shall issue new securities to each
Holder, without payment of any additional consideration therefor, with terms
that provide that upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Holders of such Warrant
shall have the right to purchase only the kind and amount of securities, cash
and other property receivable upon such Organic Change by a holder of the number
of shares of Common Stock into which such Warrant might have been exercised
immediately prior to such Organic Change, assuming such holder of Common Stock
(i) is not a Constituent Person or an affiliate of a Constituent Person and (ii)
failed to exercise his rights of election, if any, as to the kind and amount of
securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Organic Change

cash and other property receivable upon such Organic Change by each Non-Electing
Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a
plurality of the Non-Electing Shares); provided, however, that no adjustment
shall be made as a result of such Organic Change to the Exercise Price or the
number of shares of Common Stock notwithstanding any provision of Section 6
hereof unless any event requiring any such adjustment shall have occurred or
shall occur prior to, upon or after such Organic Change. The certificate or
articles of incorporation or other constituent document of the surviving entity
shall provide for such adjustments which, for events subsequent to the effective
date of such certificate or articles of incorporation or other constituent
document, shall be equivalent to the adjustments provided for in Section 6.1
hereof.
6.4. Statement on Warrants. This Warrant need not be changed because of
any adjustment made pursuant to Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 hereof, and Warrants
issued after such adjustment may state the same Exercise Price and the same

SECTION 7.0. Prior Notice of Certain Events. In the event that:
(a) the Company shall declare any dividend, whether payable in
cash or in any capital stock upon its Common Stock, or authorize any other
issuance or distribution to the holders of its Common Stock; or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger
of the Company or a sale of all or substantially all its assets; or
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company;
12

then, in any of said cases, the Company shall give prior written notice, by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the registered Holder of this
Warrant at the address of such registered Holder as shown on the registration
books of the Company, of the date on which (i) the books of the Company shall
close or a record shall be taken for such stock dividend, distribution or
subscription rights, (ii) such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up shall be consummated, or
(iii) such other event shall be consummated, as the case may be. Such notice
shall also specify the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of
record shall receive said dividend, distribution or subscription rights or shall
be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be. Such written
notice shall be given at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the event

books are closed in respect thereto.

of the Company and shall not be entitled to vote or be deemed the Holder of
Common Stock or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be
issuable on the exercise hereof, nor shall anything contained herein be
construed to confer upon the Holder of this Warrant, as such, the rights of a
shareholder of the Company or the right to vote for the election of directors or
upon any matter submitted to shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or
withhold consent to any corporate section (except as provided herein) or to
receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting shareholders (except as
provided herein), or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise
(except as provided herein), until the date of exercise of this Warrant shall
have occurred.

receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon
reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and
upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will

form attached hereto as Schedule II. The Company shall be entitled to receive,

13
14
satisfactory to the Company that such transfer does not violate the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or applicable state
securities laws. Until transfer hereof on the registration books of the Company,
the Company may treat the registered Holder as the owner hereof for all
purposes. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by Xxxxxx, at
the principal offices of the Company, together with a properly endorsed
assignment in the form attached hereto as Schedule II, for new warrants, in such

purchase not less than one hundred thousand (100,000) shares of Common Stock
(except to the extent necessary to round out the balance of the number of
shares).
SECTION 12.0. Investment Intent. Contemporaneously with the original

the taking of any action required or the expiration of any right granted herein
shall be a Sunday, or a Saturday or shall be a legal holiday or a day on which
banking institutions in New York, New York, are authorized or required by law to
remain closed, then such action may be taken or right may be exercised on the
next succeeding day which is not a Sunday, a Saturday or a legal holiday and not
a day on which banking institutions in New York, New York, are authorized or

SECTION 15.0. Remedies. The Company stipulates that the remedies at law
of the Holder of this Warrant in the event of any default or threatened default
by the Company in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this

change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. The five (5) year term of
this Warrant shall be stayed during any bankruptcy proceedings involving the
