numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends,
summaries or endorsements printed, lithographed, engraved or typed thereon as

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.
(a) 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
-3-
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 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 ▇▇▇▇▇ or such other 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.
(b) If on the Exercise Date in respect of the exercise of any Warrant, (i)
the market price of the Company's Common Stock is greater than the then Purchase
Price of the Warrant, (ii) the exercise of the Warrant was solicited by a member
of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), (iii) the
Warrant was not held in a discretionary account, (iv) disclosure of compensation
arrangements was made both at the time of the original offering and at the time
of exercise; and (v) the solicitation of the exercise of the Warrant was not in
violation of Rule 10b-6 (as such rule or any successor rule may be in effect as
of such time of exercise) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
then the Warrant Agent, simultaneously with the receipt of the proceeds upon
exercise of the Warrant(s) so exercised shall pay from the proceeds received
upon exercise of the Warrant(s), a fee of 5% of the Purchase Price to ▇▇▇▇▇ (of
which a portion may be reallowed to the dealer who solicited the exercise).
Within five days after exercise the Warrant Agent shall send ▇▇▇▇▇ a copy of the
reverse side of each Warrant exercised. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall reimburse the Warrant Agent,
upon request, for its reasonable expenses relating to compliance with this
Section 4(b). In addition, ▇▇▇▇▇ may at any time during business hours, examine
the records of the Warrant Agent, including its ledger of original Warrant
Certificates returned to the Warrant Agent upon exercise of Warrants. The
provisions of this paragraph may not be modified, amended or deleted without the
prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇. Market price shall be determined in accordance
with the provisions of Section 10.
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
-4-
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.
-5-
(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, with the prior written
consent of ▇▇▇▇▇, 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 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 Exercise 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
-6-
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 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
-7-
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
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 ▇▇▇▇▇ and 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
-8-
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 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
-9-
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 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
-10-
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
(iv) 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
(v) 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
(vi) 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
(vii) 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
-11-
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 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 the original issue
of the Units 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 the original issue of the Units 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 and Registration Under The Securities Act
of 1933.
(a) In the event the Company consummates an initial public offering of its
securities ("IPO") through the Placement Agent, 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, 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.
(b) The Company agrees to register for resale (i) the Class A Warrants into
which the Warrants are exchangeable, (ii) the warrants issuable upon exercise
thereof, if any, (the "Class B Warrants") and the shares of Common Stock issued
or issuable upon exercise of the Class A and Class B Warrants under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") contemporaneously with its
initial public offering as more fully set forth in Section IV of the
Subscription Agreement between the Company and each of the investors in the
Private Placement, subject to certain contractual restrictions applicable to the
Holder.
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
-13-
(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 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
-14-
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 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 and ▇▇▇▇▇ for inspection by their 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,
-15-
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 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.
-16-
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 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 ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

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 Expiration Date of all the Warrants;
(ii) the closing date
-17-
of an IPO which results in the conversion of the Warrants; or (iii) the date
upon which all Warrants have been exercised.

WARRANT CERTIFICATE FOR PURCHASE
OF COMMON STOCK
HEALTHCORE MEDICAL SOLUTIONS, INC.
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 Class A Common Stock, $.01 par value ("Common

"Company") at any time commencing February 27, 1998 and prior to the Expiration
Date (as hereinafter defined), upon the presentation and surrender of this
Warrant Certificate with the Subscription Form on the reverse hereof duly
executed, at the corporate office of American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as
Warrant Agent, or its successor (the "Warrant Agent"), accompanied by payment of
an amount equal to $4.00 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 HealthCore Medical Solutions, Inc. 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 February 27,
1997 by and among the Company, the Warrant Agent and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ Investment

In the event of certain contingencies provided for in the Warrant

Each Warrant represented hereby is exercisable at the option of the
Registered Holder, but no fractional shares of Common Stock will be 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 ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Certificates of

may, at its election, extend the Expiration Date.
This Warrant Certificate is exchangeable, upon the surrender 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 transfer of this
Warrant Certificate at such office, a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant
Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants will be issued
to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in
the Warrant Agreement.
Prior to the exercise of any Warrant represented hereby, the 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.
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer hereof, 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.
The Company has agreed to pay a fee of 5% of the Purchase Price upon
certain conditions as specified in the Warrant Agreement upon the exercise of
this Warrant.

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

with the laws of the State of New York.
