4. Method of Exercise; Payment.
(a) Subject to Sections 1 and 3 hereof, the purchase right
represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part,
by the surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise form attached
hereto as Exhibit 1 duly executed) at the principal office of the Company, and
by the payment to the Company, by certified check or wire transfer, of an amount
equal to the then applicable Warrant Price per share multiplied by the number of
shares then being purchased. The Holder may exercise the purchase right
represented by this Warrant without the payment of cash (hereinafter a "Cashless
Exercise"), by reducing the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon its
exercise and payment in cash so as to yield a number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the Cashless Exercise of this Warrant equal to the product of (a)
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable as of the date of exercise (the
"Exercise Date") upon the exercise of such Warrant (if payment of the Warrant
Price were being made in cash) and (b) the Cashless Exercise Ratio. As used
herein, the "Cashless Exercise Ratio" shall mean a fraction, the numerator of
which is the excess of the Fair Market Value (as defined below) per share of the
Common Stock on the Exercise Date over the Warrant Price per share of Common
Stock as of the Exercise Date and the denominator of which is the Fair Market
Value per share of the Common Stock on the Exercise Date. Upon surrender of this
Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon a Cashless
Exercise shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of the Warrant that the Holder specifies are to be exercised
pursuant to a Cashless Exercise multiplied by the Cashless Exercise Ratio.
-3-
4
Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the per
share Exercise Price or upon a Cashless Exercise, the Company shall, as promptly
as practicable, execute and deliver, in accordance with such notice, a
certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock specified in such notice. At the time of delivery of this Warrant,
appropriate notation will be made designating the number of shares purchased and
the Warrant shall then be returned to the Holder if it has been exercised in
part. The Company shall pay all expenses, taxes and other charges payable in
connection with the preparation, issuance and delivery of stock certificates,
except that, in case stock certificates shall be registered in a name or names
other than the name of the Holder, funds sufficient to pay all transfer taxes
which shall be payable upon the issuance of stock certificates shall be paid by
the Holder hereof at the time of delivery of the notice of exercise or promptly
upon receipt of a written request of the Company for payment.
The Company shall maintain at its principal office a Warrant
Register for registration of Warrant certificates and transfers thereof. The
Company shall initially register the outstanding Warrants in the name of the
Holder. The Company may deem and treat the registered holder(s) of the Warrant
certificates as the absolute owner(s) thereof and of the Warrants represented
thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on the
Warrant certificates made by any person) and as the Holder hereunder for the
purpose of any exercise thereof or any distribution to the Holder(s), and for
all other purposes, and the Company shall not be effected by notice to the
contrary.
(b) As used in this Agreement, the "Fair Market Value" of the Common
Stock shall mean:
(i) if the Common Stock is publicly traded, the average,
for the 15 previous trading days, of:
(A) the closing prices of the Common Stock on the
national securities exchange(s) on which the Common
Stock may at the time be listed, or
(B) if there have been no sales on such exchange(s)
on any such trading day, the average of the highest
bid and lowest asked prices on such exchange(s) at
the end of such day, or
(C) if on any such trading day the Common Stock is
not so listed, the average of the representative bid
and asked prices quoted on the Nasdaq National
Market ("Nasdaq") as of 4:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such day, or
(D) if on any such trading day the Common Stock is
not quoted on Nasdaq, the average of the highest bid
and lowest asked price on such day in the domestic
over-the-counter market as reported by
-4-
5
the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated, or any
similar for such date; and
(ii) if the Common Stock is not publicly traded, the value
of the Common Stock, as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Company.
5. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares.
All Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be fully paid and
nonassessable, and free from all liens and charges with respect to the issue
thereof. During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant
may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved
for the purpose of the issuance upon exercise of the purchase rights evidenced
by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide
for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
6. Special Agreements of the Company.
The Company covenants and agrees that if the Common Stock is
listed on a stock exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, the Company
will use its reasonable best efforts to procure, at its sole expense, the
listing of all Warrant Shares (subject to issuance or notice of issuance) on all
stock exchanges on which the Common Stock is then listed, or the quotation of
the Warrant Shares on the Nasdaq National Market, as the case may be, and
maintain the listing or quotation of such shares and other securities after
issuance.
7. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Shares.
The kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant, the Warrant Price and the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events as follows:
(a) Reclassification, Consolidation or Merger. In case of any (i)
reclassification or change of outstanding securities of the class issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value to
no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision
or combination), (ii) merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a
merger or other transaction in which the Company is the surviving entity but the
shares of the Company's capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the
merger or other transaction are converted by virtue of the merger or other
transaction into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash, or
otherwise, or (iii) sale or transfer of the Company's properties and assets as,
or substantially as, an entirety to any other person, then, as a part of such
reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, the Company, or such
successor corporation, as the case may be, shall execute a new Warrant,
providing that the Holder shall have the right to exercise such new
-5-
6
Warrant and procure upon such exercise, in lieu of each share of Common Stock
theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of
shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation or merger by a holder of one share of
Common Stock. Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as
nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this
Section 7 The provisions of Section 7(a) shall similarly apply to successive
reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers and transfers.
(b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any
time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or
combine its Common Stock, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased
in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination.
(c) Stock Dividends. If the Company at any time while this Warrant
is outstanding and unexpired shall pay a dividend with respect to Common Stock
payable in, or make any other distribution with respect to Common Stock (except
any distribution specifically provided for in the foregoing Section 7(a) or
Section 7(b)) of Common Stock, then the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, from
and after the date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant
Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction
(a) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution and (b) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution.
(d) Other Distributions. If the Company at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall distribute to holders of its Common
Stock any of its assets (including cash) or securities (other than pursuant to
Sections 7(a), (b) or (c)), then the Holder shall, upon exercise of the Warrant,
be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution (without interest
thereon) as though it was the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
into which the Warrant was exercisable as of the record date fixed for the
determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such
distribution.
(e) Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated
by the provisions of this Section 7 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), then the
Company's Board of Directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Warrant
Price so as to protect the rights of the Company and the Holder of this Warrant.
(f) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the
Warrant Price pursuant to any of Sections 7(a), (b), (c) or (e) hereof, the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted, to the
nearest whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares
purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment in the Warrant Price by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Warrant Price immediately prior to
such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price
immediately thereafter.
-6-

(g) Minimum Adjustment. The adjustments required by the preceding
sections of this Section 7 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified
event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that no adjustment of the
Warrant Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant that would otherwise be required shall be made unless and until
such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made
increases or decreases by at least 1% the Warrant Price or the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the
making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than
such minimum amount shall be carried forward and made as soon as such
adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 7 and not
previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment. For the purpose of any
adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of
business on the date of its occurrence. In computing adjustments under this
Section 7, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to
the nearest one-hundredth of a share.
8. Notice of Adjustments.
Whenever any Warrant Price shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 7
hereof, the Company shall prepare promptly a certificate signed by its chief
financial officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the
adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment
was calculated, the Warrant Price or Prices after giving effect to such
adjustment and the number of shares then purchasable upon exercise of this
Warrant, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be mailed (by first class
mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the address specified in Section 12(f)
hereof, or at such other address as may be provided to this Company in writing
by the Holder.
9. Fractional Shares.

in connection with any exercise hereunder, and shall make a cash payment
therefor upon the basis of the Warrant Price then in effect in lieu of any
fractional shares issuable pursuant to any exercise hereunder.

covenants and agrees that:
(a) This Warrant and the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon
exercise hereof are being acquired for investment and that it will not offer,
