defined as the date that the advance copy of the Exercise Form is sent by
facsimile to the Company, provided that the original Warrant and Exercise Form
are received by the Company as soon as practicable thereafter. Alternatively,
the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date the original Exercise Form is

(c) Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the
Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise,
Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares
purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not
exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant (containing
terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this
Warrant in addition to such Common Stock.
(d) Holder of Record. Each person in whose name any Warrant for shares of
Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be the Holder of
record of such shares on the Date of Exercise of this Warrant, irrespective of
the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the Exercise of this
Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon Holder
any rights as a stockholder of the Company.

exercise of this Warrant do NOT constitute "Registrable Securities" under that
certain Registration Rights Agreement dated on or about June 20, 1997 between
the Company and certain investors or any other agreement and, accordingly, the
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may not be resold absent an
exemption from registration under the Act.
5. ANTI-DILUTION ADJUSTMENTS.
(a) Stock Dividend. If the Company shall at any time declare a dividend
payable in shares of Common Stock, then Holder, upon Exercise of this Warrant
after the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled
to receive such dividend, shall be entitled to receive upon Exercise of this
Warrant, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock as to which this
Warrant is exercised, such additional shares of Common Stock as such Holder
would have received had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such
record date and the Exercise Price will be proportionately adjusted.
(b) Recapitalization or Reclassification. If the Company shall at any
time effect a recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of
such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become
exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares, then upon the effective
date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall be
entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or
decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease
in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such recapitalization,
reclassification or similar transaction, and the Exercise Price shall be, in the
case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionally decreased and, in
the case of decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased. The
Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders of Common Stock
of any transaction described in this Section 5(b).
(c) Distributions. If the Company shall at any time distribute for no
consideration to holders of Common Stock cash, evidences of indebtedness or
other securities or assets (other than cash dividends or distributions payable
out of earned surplus or net profits for the current or preceding year) then, in
any such case, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon Exercise of this
Warrant, with respect to each share of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise,
the amount of cash or evidences of indebtedness or other securities or assets
which Holder would have been entitled to receive with respect to each such share
of Common Stock as a result of the happening of such event had this Warrant been
exercised immediately prior to the record date or other date fixing shareholders
to be affected by such event (the "Determination Date") or, in lieu thereof, if
the Board of Directors of the Company should so determine at the time of such
distribution, a reduced Exercise Price determined by multiplying the Exercise
Price on the Determination Date by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
result of such Exercise Price reduced by the value of such distribution
applicable to one share of Common Stock (such value to be determined by the
Board of Directors of the Company in its discretion) and the denominator of
which is such Exercise Price.
(d) Notice of Consolidation or Merger. In the event of a merger,
consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other
similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into
the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes
of stock or securities or other assets of the Company or another entity or there
is a sale of all or substantially all the Company's assets (a "Corporate
Change"), then this Warrant shall be exerciseable into such class and type of
securities or other assets as Holder would have received had Holder exercised
this Warrant immediately prior to such Corporate Change; provided, however, that
Company may not affect any Corporate Change unless it first shall have given
thirty (30) business days notice to Holder hereof of any Corporate Change.
(e) Exercise Price Adjusted. As used in this Warrant, the term
"Exercise Price" shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3
of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in subsection (a), (b)
or (c) of this Section 5, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted from
time to time in accordance with the provisions of said subsection. No such
adjustment under this Section 5 shall be made unless such adjustment would
change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more; provided, however, that
all adjustments not so made shall be deferred and made when the aggregate
thereof would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more. No
adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net
effect of increasing the Exercise Price. The number of shares of Common Stock
subject hereto shall increase proportionately with each decrease in the Exercise
Price.
(f) Adjustments: Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event
that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5,
Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive shares
and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever
appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to
refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and
thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly
equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.
6. FRACTIONAL INTERESTS.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be
issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant, but on Exercise of this Warrant,
Holder may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If, on
Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be entitled to a fractional share of
Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such
fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise shall be the nex higher number of shares.
7. RESERVATION OF SHARES.
The Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such
number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (or other securities
substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be sufficient for the
Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. The Company
covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully
paid, nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights, rights of first
refusal or similar rights of any person or entity.
