all warrantholders the Company shall have the right to extend the Warrant

SECTION 2. Warrants and Issuance of Warrant Certificates.
(a) A Warrant shall initially entitle the Registered Holder of
the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrant to purchase one share of
Common Stock upon the exercise thereof, in accordance with the terms hereof,
subject to modification and adjustment as provided in Section 8.
(b) From time to time, up to the Warrant Expiration Date, the

Warrants in accordance with this Agreement.

Exhibit A (the provisions of which are hereby incorporated herein) and may have
such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such
legends, summaries or endorsements printed, lithographed, engraved or typed
thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law or
with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation
of any stock exchange on which the Warrants may be listed, or to conform to
usage. The Warrant Certificates shall be dated the date of issuance thereof
(whether upon initial issuance, transfer, exchange or in lieu of mutilated,
lost, stolen, or destroyed Warrant Certificates) and issued in registered form.
Warrants shall be numbered serially with the letters WS.
(b) Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by its Chairman of the Board, President or any Vice President and by its
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, by manual signatures or by facsimile
signatures printed thereon, and shall have imprinted thereon a facsimile of the
Company's seal. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of
the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be such officer of the Company before
the date of issuance of the Warrant Certificates and issue and delivery thereof,
such Warrant Certificates may nevertheless be issued and delivered with the same
force and effect as though the person who signed such Warrant Certificates had
not ceased to be such officer of the Company. After execution by the Company,
Warrant Certificates shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Registered
Holder.
SECTION 4. Exercise. Each Warrant may be exercised by the
Registered Holder thereof at any time on or after the Initial Exercise Date, but
not after the Warrant Expiration Date, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth herein and in the applicable Warrant Certificate. A Warrant
shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of
business on the Exercise Date and the person entitled to receive the securities
deliverable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder
upon exercise thereof as of the close of business on the Exercise Date. As soon
as practicable on or
-3-
after the Exercise Date the Warrant Agent shall deposit the proceeds received
from the exercise of a Warrant, and promptly after clearance of checks received
in payment of the Purchase Price pursuant to such Warrants, cause to be issued
and delivered by the Transfer Agent, to the person or persons entitled to
receive the same, a certificate or certificates for the securities deliverable
upon such exercise, (plus a certificate for any remaining unexercised Warrants
of the Registered Holder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of payment
made in the form of a check drawn on an account of such investment banks and
brokerage houses as the Company shall approve, certificates shall immediately be
issued without any delay. Upon the exercise of any Warrant and clearance of the
funds received, the Warrant Agent shall promptly remit the payment received for
the Warrant to the Company or as the Company may direct in writing.
SECTION 5. Reservation of Shares; Listing; Payment of Taxes;
etc. (a) The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep
available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issue
upon exercise of Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then
be issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants. The Company covenants
that all shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants and payment of the Purchase Price shall, at the time of delivery, be
duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and free from all taxes,
liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof (other than those which the
Company shall promptly pay or discharge).
(b) The Company will use reasonable efforts to obtain
appropriate approvals or registrations under state "blue sky" securities laws
with respect to the exercise of the Warrants; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process
or qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction. With respect to any
such securities laws, however, Warrants may not be exercised by, or shares of
Common Stock issued to, any Registered Holder in any state in which such
exercise would be unlawful.
(c) The Company shall pay all documentary, stamp or similar
taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to the
issuance of Warrants, or the issuance, or delivery of any shares upon exercise
of the Warrants; provided, however, that if the shares of Common Stock are to be
delivered in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder of the Warrant
Certificate representing any Warrant being exercised, then no such delivery
shall be made unless the person requesting the same has paid to the Warrant
Agent the amount of transfer taxes or charges incident thereto, if any.
(d) The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to
requisition the Company's Transfer Agent from time to time for certificates
representing shares of Common Stock required upon exercise of the Warrants, and
the Company will authorize the Transfer Agent to comply with all such proper
requisitions.

SECTION 6. Exchange and Registration of Transfer.
Subject to the restrictions on transfer contained in the
Warrant Certificates and the Subscription Agreements between the Company and the
purchasers of Units:
(a) Warrant Certificates may be exchanged for other Warrant
Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants of the same
class or may be transferred in whole or in part. Warrant Certificates to be
exchanged shall be surrendered to the Warrant Agent at its Corporate Office, and
upon satisfaction of the terms and provisions hereof, the Company shall execute,
and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, issue and deliver in exchange therefor
the Warrant Certificate or Certificates which the Registered Holder making the
exchange shall be entitled to receive.
(b) The Warrant Agent shall keep at its office books in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall register
Warrant Certificates and the transfer thereof in accordance with its regular
practice. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant
Certificate at its office, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall
issue and deliver to the transferee or transferees a new Warrant Certificate or
Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants.
(c) With respect to all Warrant Certificates presented for
registration of transfer, or for exchange or exercise, the subscription form on
the reverse thereof shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument or instruments of transfer and subscription, in form satisfactory to
the Company, duly executed by the Registered Holder or his attorney-in-fact duly
authorized in writing.
(d) The Company may require payment by such holder of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection therewith.
(e) All Warrant Certificates surrendered for exercise or for
exchange in case of mutilated Warrant Certificates shall be promptly cancelled
by the Warrant Agent and thereafter retained by the Warrant Agent until
termination of this Agreement or resignation of the Warrant Agent, or disposed
of or destroyed, at the direction of the Company.
(f) Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer
thereof, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered
Holder of any Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner thereof and of each
Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or
writing thereon made by anyone other than a duly authorized officer of the
Company or the Warrant Agent) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any
notice to the contrary.
SECTION 7. Loss or Mutilation. Upon receipt by the Company and
the Warrant Agent of evidence satisfactory to them of the ownership of and loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate and (in case of
loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity
-5-
satisfactory to them, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation thereof, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall (in
the absence of notice to the Company and/or Warrant Agent that the Warrant
Certificate has been acquired by a bonafide purchaser) countersign and deliver
to the Registered Holder in lieu thereof a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor
representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants. Applicants for a substitute
Warrant Certificate shall comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay
such other reasonable charges as the Warrant Agent may prescribe.
SECTION 8. Adjustment of Purchase Price and Number of Shares
of Class A Common Stock or Warrants.
(a) Subject to the exceptions referred to in Section 8(g)
below, in the event the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after
the date hereof, sell any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share
less than the current fair market value per share of the Common Stock on the
date of the sale or issue any shares of Common Stock as a stock dividend to the
holders of Common Stock, or subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares (any such sale, issuance,
subdivision or combination being herein called a "Change of Shares"), then, and
thereafter upon each further Change of Shares, the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such Change of Shares shall be changed to a price
(including any applicable fraction of a cent) determined by multiplying the
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a fraction, the numerator
of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the issuance of such additional shares and the number of
shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received (determined as
provided in subsection 8(f)(F) below), if any, for the issuance of such
additional shares would purchase at such current market price per share of
Common Stock, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the issuance of such
additional shares. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an
issuance is made.
Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to
this Section 8, the total number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the
exercise of each Warrant shall (subject to the provisions contained in Section
8(b) hereof) be such number of shares (calculated to the nearest tenth)
purchasable at the Purchase Price immediately prior to such adjustment
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Purchase Price in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall
be the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
(b) The Company may elect, upon any adjustment of the Purchase
Price hereunder, to adjust the number of Warrants outstanding, in lieu of the
adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise
of each Warrant as hereinabove provided, so that each Warrant outstanding after
such adjustment shall represent the right to purchase one share of Common Stock.
Each Warrant held of record prior to such adjustment of the number of Warrants
shall become that number of Warrants (calculated to the nearest tenth)
determined by multiplying the number one by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the
-6-
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the
denominator of which shall be the Purchase Price in effect immediately after
such adjustment. Upon each adjustment of the number of Warrants pursuant to this
Section 8, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause to be
distributed to each Registered Holder of Warrant Certificates on the date of
such adjustment Warrant Certificates evidencing, subject to Section 10 hereof,
the number of additional Warrants to which such Holder shall be entitled as a
result of such adjustment or, at the option of the Company, cause to be
distributed to such Holder in substitution and replacement for the Warrant
Certificates held by him prior to the date of adjustment (and upon surrender
thereof, if required by the Company) new Warrant Certificates evidencing the
number of Warrants to which such Holder shall be entitled after such adjustment.
(c) In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or
other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or in case of any
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
corporation and which does not result in any reclassification, capital
reorganization or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in
case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the
Company as, or substantially as, an entirety (other than a sale/leaseback,
mortgage or other financing transaction), the Company shall cause effective
provision to be made so that each holder of a Warrant then outstanding shall
have the right thereafter, by exercising such Warrant, to purchase the kind and
number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash)
receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization or other change,
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock that might have been purchased upon exercise of such Warrant
immediately prior to such reclassification, capital reorganization or other
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Any such provision shall
include provision for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 8. The foregoing
provisions shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, capital
reorganizations and other changes of outstanding shares of Common Stock and to
successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.
(d) Irrespective of any adjustments or changes in the Purchase
Price or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the
Warrants, the Warrant Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued shall,
unless the Company shall exercise its option to issue new Warrant Certificates
pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof, continue to express the Purchase Price per
share and the number of shares purchasable thereunder as the Purchase Price per
share, and the number of shares purchasable were expressed in the Warrant
Certificates when the same were originally issued.
(e) After each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to
this Section 8, the Company will promptly prepare a certificate signed by the
Chairman or President, and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, of the Company setting forth: (i) the
Purchase Price as so adjusted, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant after such adjustment, and, if the
Company shall have elected to adjust the number of Warrants, the number of
Warrants to which the registered
-7-
holder of each Warrant shall then be entitled, and the adjustment in Redemption
Price resulting therefrom, and (iii) a brief statement of the facts accounting
for such adjustment. The Company will promptly file such certificate with the
Warrant Agent and cause a brief summary thereof to be sent by ordinary first
class mail to each registered holder of Warrants at his last address as it shall
appear on the registry books of the Warrant Agent. No failure to mail such
notice nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the
validity thereof except as to the holder to whom the Company failed to mail such
notice, or except as to the holder whose notice was defective. The affidavit of
an officer of the Warrant Agent or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of
the Company that such notice has been mailed shall, in the absence of fraud, be
prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
(f) For purposes of Section 8(a) and 8(b) hereof, the
following provisions (A) to (F) shall also be applicable:
(A) The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
at any given time shall include shares of Common Stock
owned or held by or for the account of the Company and the
sale or issuance of such treasury shares or the
distribution of any such treasury shares shall not be
considered a Change of Shares for purposes of said
sections.
(B) No adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made
unless such adjustment would require an increase or
decrease of at least $.10 in such price; provided that any
adjustments which by reason of this clause (B) are not
required to be made shall be carried forward and shall be
made at the time of and together with the next subsequent
adjustment which, together with any adjustment(s) so
carried forward, shall require an increase or decrease of
at least $.10 in the Purchase Price then in effect
hereunder.
(C) In case of (1) the sale by the Company for cash of
any rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase, or
any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or any
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common
Stock without the payment of any further consideration
other than cash, if any (such convertible or exchangeable
securities being herein called "Convertible Securities"),
or (2) the issuance by the Company, without the receipt by
the Company of any consideration therefor, of any rights
or warrants to subscribe for or purchase, or any options
for the purchase of, Common Stock or Convertible
Securities, in each case, if (and only if) the
consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of
such rights, warrants or options shall consist of cash,
whether or not such rights, warrants or options, or the
right to convert or exchange such Convertible Securities,
are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for
which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such
rights, warrants or options or upon the conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by
dividing (x) the minimum aggregate consideration payable
to the Company upon the exercise of such rights, warrants
or options, plus the
-8-
consideration received by the Company for the issuance
or sale of such rights, warrants or options, plus, in the
case of such Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate
amount of additional consideration, if any, other than
such Convertible Securities, payable upon the conversion
or exchange thereof, by (y) the total maximum number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such
rights, warrants or options or upon the conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the
exercise of such rights, warrants or options) is less than
the Market Price of the Common Stock on the date of the
issuance or sale of such rights, warrants or options, then
the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of such rights, warrants or
options or upon the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities (as of the date of the issuance or
sale of such rights, warrants or options) shall be deemed
to be outstanding shares of Common Stock for purposes of
Sections 8(a) and 8(b) hereof and shall be deemed to have
been sold for cash in an amount equal to such price per
share.
(D) In case of the sale by the Company for cash of
any Convertible Securities, whether or not the right of
conversion or exchange thereunder is immediately
exercisable, and the price per share for which Common
Stock is issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (x) the
total amount of consideration received by the Company for
the sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any,
other than such Convertible Securities, payable upon the
conversion or exchange thereof, by (y) the total maximum
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion or exchange of such convertible Securities) is
less than the Market Price of the Common Stock on the date
of the sale of such Convertible Securities, then the total
maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (as
of the date of the sale of such Convertible Securities)
shall be deemed to be outstanding shares of Common Stock
for purposes of Sections 8(a) and 8(b) hereof and shall be
deemed to have been sold for cash in an amount equal to
such price per share.
(E) If the exercise or purchase price provided for in
any right, warrant or option referred to in (C) above, or
the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to
in (C) or (D) above are convertible into or exchangeable
for Common Stock, shall change at any time (other than
under or by reason of provisions designed to protect
against dilution), the Purchase Price then in effect
hereunder shall forthwith be readjusted to such Purchase
Price as would have obtained (1) had the adjustments made
upon the issuance or sale of such rights, warrants,
options or Convertible Securities been made upon the basis
of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common
Stock theretofore actually delivered (and the total
consideration received therefor) upon the exercise of such
rights, warrants or options or upon the conversion or
exchange of such Convertible
-9-
Securities, (2) had adjustments been made on the basis of
the Purchase Price as adjusted under clause (1) for all
transactions (which would have affected such adjusted
Purchase Price) made after the issuance or sale of such
rights, warrants, options or Convertible Securities, and
(3) had any such rights, warrants, options or Convertible
Securities then still outstanding been originally issued
or sold at the time of such change. On the expiration of
any such right, warrant or option or the termination of
any such right to convert or exchange any such Convertible
Securities, the Purchase Price then in effect hereunder
shall forthwith be readjusted to such Purchase Price as
would have obtained (a) had the adjustments made upon the
issuance or sale of such rights, warrants, options or
Convertible Securities been made upon the basis of the
issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock
theretofore actually delivered (and the total
consideration received therefor) upon the exercise of such
rights, warrants or options or upon the conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities and (b) had
adjustments been made on the basis of the Purchase Price
as adjusted under clause (a) for all transactions (which
would have affected such adjusted Purchase Price) made
after the issuance or sale of such rights, warrants,
options or Convertible Securities.
(F) In case of the sale for cash of any shares of
Common Stock, any Convertible Securities, any rights or
warrants to subscribe for or purchase, or any options for
the purchase of, Common Stock or Convertible Securities,
the consideration received by the Company therefore shall
be deemed to be the gross sales price therefor without
deducting therefrom any expense paid or incurred by the
Company or any underwriting discounts or commissions or
concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection
therewith.
(g) No adjustment to the Purchase Price of the Warrants or
to the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon
the exercise of each Warrant will be made, however,
(i) upon the exercise of any of the options presently
outstanding under the Company's Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") for officers, directors and certain other key
personnel of the Company; or
(ii) upon the grant or exercise of any other options
which may hereafter be granted or exercised under the Plan
or under any other employee benefit plan of the Company;
or
(iii) upon the sale or exercise of the Warrants or any
other Warrants issued by the Company; or
-10-
(iv) upon the sale or exercise of the stock purchase
warrants issued and to be issued in connection with the
Company's private placement of Units being conducted
contemporaneously with execution and delivery of this Warrant
Agreement; or
(v) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or
warrants sold to the public or the underwriter in the
Company's initial public offering, or upon exercise of
warrants comprising or underlying any Units sold in the
Company's initial public offering, including any shares or
warrants underlying the underwriter's warrants or unit
purchase option; or
(vi) upon the issuance or sale of Common Stock or
Convertible Securities upon the exercise of any rights or
warrants to subscribe for or purchase, or any options for the
purchase of, Common Stock or Convertible Securities, whether
or not such rights, warrants or options were outstanding on
the date of the original sale of the Warrants or were
thereafter issued or sold; or
(vii) upon the issuance or sale of Common Stock upon
conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities, whether
or not any adjustment in the Purchase Price was made or
required to be made upon the issuance or sale of such
Convertible Securities and whether or not such Convertible
Securities were outstanding on the date of the original sale
of the Warrants or were thereafter issued or sold; or
(viii) upon any amendment to or change in the terms of any
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase, or options
for the purchase of, Common Stock or Convertible Securities or
in the terms of any Convertible Securities, including, but not
limited to, any extension of any expiration date of any such
right, warrant or option, any change in any exercise or
purchase price provided for in any such right, warrant or
option, any extension of any date through which any
Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable
for Common Stock or any change in the rate at which any
Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable
for Common Stock (other than rights, warrants, options or
Convertible Securities issued or sold after the close of
business on the date of the original issuance of the Warrants
(i) for which an adjustment in the Purchase Price then in
effect was theretofore made or required to be made, upon the
issuance or sale thereof, or (ii) for which such an adjustment
would have been required had the exercise or purchase price of
such rights, warrants or options at the time of the issuance
or sale thereof or the rate of conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities, at the time of the sale of such
Convertible Securities, or the issuance or sale of rights or
warrants to subscribe for or purchase, or options for the
purchase of, such Convertible Securities, been the price or
rate as changed, in which case the provisions of Section
8(f)(E) hereof shall be applicable if, but only if, the
exercise or purchase price thereof, as changed, or the
-11-
rate of conversion or exchange thereof, as changed, consists
of cash or requires the payment of additional consideration,
if any, consisting of cash and the Company did not receive any
consideration other than cash, if any, in connection with such
change).
(h) As used in this Section 8, the term "Common Stock" shall
mean and include the Company's Common Stock authorized on the date of this
Warrant Agreement and shall also include any capital stock of any class of the
Company thereafter authorized which shall not be limited to a fixed sum or
percentage in respect of the rights of the holders thereof to participate in
dividends and in the distribution of assets upon the voluntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company; provided, however, that the shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall include only shares of such class
designated in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation as Common Stock on the
date of this Warrant Agreement or (i), in the case of any reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance of the character referred to
in Section 8(c) hereof, the stock, securities or property provided for in such
section or (ii), in the case of any reclassification or change in the
outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as a
result of a subdivision or combination or consisting of a change in par value,
or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, such
shares of Common Stock as so reclassified or changed.
(i) Any determination as to whether an adjustment in the
Purchase Price in effect hereunder is required pursuant to Section 8, or as to
the amount of any such adjustment, if required, shall be binding upon the
holders of the Warrants and the Company if made in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company.
(j) If and whenever the Company shall declare any dividends or
distributions or grant to the holders of Common Stock, as such, rights or
warrants to subscribe for or to purchase, or any options for the purchase of,
Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for or carrying a
right, warrant or option to purchase Common Stock, the Company shall notify each
of the then Registered Holders of the Warrants of such event prior to its
occurrence to enable such Registered Holders to exercise their Warrants and
participate as holders of Common Stock in such event.
SECTION 9. Conversion of Warrants.
(a) In the event the Company consummates an initial public
offering of its securities ("IPO") through X.X. Xxxxx Investment Banking Corp.,
and the securities offered in the IPO include warrants which are exercisable to
purchase common stock ("Class A Warrants"), the Warrants will be automatically
converted on the closing date of the IPO with no action needed on the part of
the holder into Class A Warrants with the identical terms as the Class A
Warrants offered to the public (except as provided in Section 9(b) below), which
may be redeemed by the Company under certain conditions. On such closing date,
this Warrant Agreement shall terminate and the Class A Warrants into which the
Warrants convert will be governed by the warrant agreement covering the Class A
Warrants sold in the IPO.
-12-
(b) The Class A Warrants and securities issuable upon exercise
of the Class A Warrants shall not be registered for resale under the United
States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as part of the Company's registration
of securities in the IPO, but will be entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement dated as of January 9, 1996 among the Company and
the Holders.
SECTION 10. Fractional Warrants and Fractional Shares.
(a) If the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon
the exercise of each Warrant is adjusted pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the
Company shall nevertheless not be required to issue fractions of shares, upon
exercise of the Warrants or otherwise, or to distribute certificates that
evidence fractional shares. With respect to any fraction of a share called for
upon any exercise hereof, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash
equal to such fraction multiplied by the current market value of such fractional
share, determined as follows:
(1) If the Common Stock is listed on a national
securities exchange or admitted to unlisted trading privileges
on such exchange or listed for trading on the Nasdaq National
Market System ("NMS"), the current market value shall be the
last reported sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange
on the last business day prior to the date of exercise of this
Warrant or if no such sale is made on such day or no closing
sale price is quoted, the average of the closing bid and asked
prices for such day on such exchange or system; or
(2) If the Common Stock is listed in the
over-the-counter market (other than on NMS) or admitted to
unlisted trading privileges, the current market value shall be
the mean of the last reported bid and asked prices reported by
the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. on the last business day
prior to the date of the exercise of this Warrant; or
(3) If the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted
to unlisted trading privileges and bid and asked prices are
not so reported, the current market value shall be an amount
determined in such reasonable manner as may be prescribed by
the Board of Directors of the Company.
SECTION 11. Warrant Holders Not Deemed Stockholders. No holder
of Warrants shall, as such, be entitled to vote or to receive dividends or be
deemed the holder of Common Stock that may at any time be issuable upon exercise
of such Warrants for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall anything contained herein
be construed to confer upon the holder of Warrants, as such, any of the rights
of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of
directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof,
or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any
recapitalization, issue or reclassification of stock, change of par value or
change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger or conveyance or
otherwise), or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or
-13-
subscription rights, until such Holder shall have exercised such Warrants and
been issued shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions hereof.
SECTION 12. Rights of Action. All rights of action with
respect to this Agreement are vested in the respective Registered Holders of the
Warrants, and any Registered Holder of a Warrant, without consent of the Warrant
Agent or of the holder of any other Warrant, may, on his own behalf and for his
own benefit, enforce against the Company his right to exercise his Warrants for
the purchase of shares of Common Stock in the manner provided in the Warrant
Certificate and this Agreement.
SECTION 13. Agreement of Warrant Holders. Every holder of a
Warrant, by his acceptance thereof, consents and agrees with the Company, the
Warrant Agent and every other holder of a Warrant that:
(a) The Warrants are transferable only on the registry books
of the Warrant Agent by the Registered Holder thereof in person or by his
attorney duly authorized in writing and only if the Warrant Certificates
representing such Warrants are surrendered at the office of the Warrant Agent,
duly endorsed or accompanied by a proper instrument of transfer satisfactory to
the Warrant Agent and the Company in their sole discretion, together with
payment of any applicable transfer taxes; and
(b) The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name
the Warrant Certificate is registered as the holder and as the absolute, true
and lawful owner of the Warrants represented thereby for all purposes, and the
Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary, except
as otherwise expressly provided in Section 7 hereof.
SECTION 14. Cancellation of Warrant Certificates. If the
Company shall purchase or acquire any Warrant or Warrants, the Warrant
Certificate or Warrant Certificates evidencing the same shall thereupon be
cancelled by it and retired. The Warrant Agent shall also cancel Common Stock
following exercise of any or all of the Warrants represented thereby or
delivered to it for transfer, splitup, combination or exchange.
SECTION 15. Concerning the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent
acts hereunder as agent and in a ministerial capacity for the Company, and its
duties shall be determined solely by the provisions hereof. The Warrant Agent
shall not, by issuing and delivering Warrant Certificates or by any other act
hereunder be deemed to make any representations as to the validity, value or
authorization of the Warrant Certificates or the Warrants represented thereby or
of any securities or other property delivered upon exercise of any Warrant or
whether any stock issued upon exercise of any Warrant is fully paid and
nonassessable.
The Warrant Agent shall account promptly to the Company with
respect to Warrants exercised and concurrently pay the Company, as provided in
Section 4, all moneys received by the Warrant Agent upon the exercise of such
Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall, upon request of the Company from time to
time, deliver to the Company such complete reports
-14-
of registered ownership of the Warrants and such complete records of
transactions with respect to the Warrants and the shares of Common Stock as the
Company may request. The Warrant Agent shall also make available to the Company
for inspection by its agents or employees, from time to time as either of them
may request, such original books of accounts and record (including original
Warrant Certificates surrendered to the Warrant Agent upon exercise of Warrants)
as may be maintained by the Warrant Agent in connection with the issuance and
exercise of Warrants hereunder, such inspections to occur at the Warrant Agent's
office as specified in Section 17, during normal business hours.
The Warrant Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or
responsibility to any holder of Warrant Certificates to make or cause to be made
any adjustment of the Purchase Price provided in this Agreement, or to determine
whether any fact exists which may require any such adjustments, or with respect
to the nature or extent of any such adjustment, when made, or with respect to
the method employed in making the same. It shall not (i) be liable for any
recital or statement of facts contained herein or for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it in reliance on any Warrant Certificate or other document or
instrument believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties, (ii) be responsible for any failure on
the part of the Company to comply with any of its covenants and obligations
contained in this Agreement or in any Warrant Certificate, or (iii) be liable
for any act or omission in connection with this Agreement except for its own
negligence or wilful misconduct.
The Warrant Agent may at any time consult with counsel
satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company) and shall incur no
liability or responsibility for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in
good faith in accordance with the opinion or advice of such counsel.
Any notice, statement, instruction, request, direction, order
or demand of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced by an instrument signed
by the Chairman of the Board, President, any Vice President, its Secretary, or
Assistant Secretary, (unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein
specifically prescribed). The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with such notice, statement,
instruction, request, direction, order or demand believed by it to be genuine.
The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent reasonable
compensation for its services hereunder and to reimburse it for its reasonable
expenses hereunder; it further agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it
harmless against any and all losses, expenses and liabilities, including
judgments, costs and counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant
Agent in the execution of its duties and powers hereunder except losses,
expenses and liabilities arising as a result of the Warrant Agent's negligence
or wilful misconduct.
The Warrant Agent may resign its duties and be discharged from
all further duties and liabilities hereunder (except liabilities arising as a
result of the Warrant Agent's own negligence or wilful misconduct), after giving
30 days' prior written notice to the Company. At
-15-
least 15 days prior to the date such resignation is to become effective, the
Warrant Agent shall cause a copy of such notice of resignation to be mailed to
the Registered Holder of each Warrant Certificate at the Company's expense. Upon
such resignation, or any inability of the Warrant Agent to act as such
hereunder, the Company shall appoint a new warrant agent in writing. If the
Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 15 days after it
has been notified in writing of such resignation by the resigning Warrant Agent,
then the Registered Holder of any Warrant Certificate may apply to any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a new warrant agent. Any new
warrant agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be a
bank or trust company having a capital and surplus, as shown by its last
published report to its stockholders, of not less than $10,000,000 or a stock
transfer company. After acceptance in writing of such appointment by the new
warrant agent is received by the Company, such new warrant agent shall be vested
with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been
originally named herein as the Warrant Agent, without any further assurance,
conveyance, act or deed; but if for any reason it shall be necessary or
expedient to execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed,
the same shall be done at the expense of the Company and shall be legally and
validly executed and delivered by the resigning Warrant Agent. Not later than
the effective date of any such appointment the Company shall file notice thereof
with the resigning Warrant Agent and shall forthwith cause a copy of such notice
to be mailed to the Registered Holder of each Warrant Certificate.
Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent or any new
warrant agent may be converted or merged or any corporation resulting from any
consolidation to which the Warrant Agent or any new warrant agent shall be a
party or any corporation succeeding to the trust business of the Warrant Agent
shall be a successor warrant agent under this Agreement without any further act,
provided that such corporation is eligible for appointment as successor to the
Warrant Agent under the provisions of the preceding paragraph. Any such
successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant
agent to be mailed to the Company and to the Registered Holder of each Warrant
Certificate.
The Warrant Agent, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and any of
its or their officers or directors, may buy and hold or sell Warrants or other
securities of the Company and otherwise deal with the Company in the same manner
and to the same extent and with like effects as though it were not Warrant
Agent. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in any other
capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity.
SECTION 16. Modification of Agreement. Subject to the
provisions of Section 4(b), the parties hereto may by supplemental agreement
make any changes or corrections in this Agreement (i) that it shall deem
appropriate to cure any ambiguity or to correct any defective or inconsistent
provision or manifest mistake or error herein contained; (ii) to reflect an
increase in the number of Warrants which are to be governed by this Agreement
resulting from an increase in the size of the Private Placement; or (iii) that
it may deem necessary or desirable and which shall not adversely affect the
interests of the holders of Warrant Certificates; provided, however, that this
Agreement shall not otherwise be modified, supplemented or altered
-16-
in any respect except with the consent in writing of the Registered Holders of
Warrant Certificates representing not less than 50% of the Warrants then
outstanding; and provided, further, that no change in the number or nature of
the securities purchasable upon the exercise of any Warrant, or the Purchase
Price therefor, or the acceleration of the Warrant Expiration Date, shall be
made without the consent in writing of the Registered Holder of the Warrant
Certificate representing such Warrant, other than such changes as are
specifically prescribed by this Agreement as originally executed.
SECTION 17. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
made when delivered or mailed first class registered or certified mail, postage
prepaid as follows: if to the Registered Holder of a Warrant Certificate, at the
address of such holder as shown on the registry books maintained by the Warrant
Agent; if to the Company, at 00 Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000,
Attention: Xxxxxx XxXxxxxxxx , President; if to the Warrant Agent, at its
Corporate Office.
SECTION 18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without
reference to principles of conflict of laws.
SECTION 19. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Warrant Agent (and their
respective successors and assigns) and the holders from time to time of Warrant
Certificates. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to
confer upon any other person any right, remedy or claim, in equity or at law, or
to impose upon any other person any duty, liability or obligation.
SECTION 20. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the
earlier to occur of (i) the close of business on the Warrant Expiration Date of
all the Warrants; (ii) the closing date of an IPO which results in the
conversion of the Warrants; or (iii) the date upon which all Warrants have been
exercised.
SECTION 21. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
several counterparts, which taken together shall constitute a single document.

PARADIGM MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY
This certifies that FOR VALUE RECEIVED_______________________
________________________ or registered assigns (the "Registered Holder") is the
owner of the number of Warrants ("Warrants") specified above. Each Warrant
initially entitles the Registered Holder to purchase, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Certificate and the Warrant Agreement (as
hereinafter defined), one fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock,
$.01 par value ("Common Stock") of Paradigm Music Entertainment Company, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company") at any time commencing January 13, 1998 and

by payment of an amount equal to $3.00 for each Warrant (the "Purchase Price")
in lawful money of the United States of America in cash or by official bank or
certified check made payable to Paradigm Music Entertainment Company. The
Company may, at its election, reduce the Purchase Price.
This Warrant Certificate and each Warrant represented hereby
are issued pursuant to and are subject in all respects to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement (the "Warrant Agreement"), dated
January 9, 1997 by and among the Company, the Warrant Agent, Prodigy Services

issued. In the case of the exercise of less than all the Warrants represented
hereby, the Company shall cancel this Warrant Certificate upon the surrender
hereof and shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant
Certificates of like tenor, which the Warrant Agent shall countersign, for the

hereof by the Registered Holder at the corporate office of the Warrant Agent,
for a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor representing
an equal aggregate number of Warrants, each of such new Warrant Certificates to
represent such number of Warrants as shall be designated by such Registered
Holder at the time of such surrender. Upon due presentment with any tax or other
governmental charge imposed in connection therewith, for registration of

provided in the Warrant Agreement.

Registered Holder shall not be entitled to any limitation, the right to vote or
to receive dividends or other distributions, and shall not be entitled to
receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided in the
Warrant Agreement.

the Company may deem and treat the Registered Holder as the absolute owner
hereof and of each Warrant represented hereby (notwithstanding any notations of
ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than a duly authorized officer
of the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
This Warrant will automatically convert into a like number of
new warrants under certain circumstances in the event the Company completes an
initial public offering of its securities having the terms and conditions
specified in the Warrant Agreement.
This Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
