Option, together with options of like tenor, constituting in the aggregate

Investment Banking Corp., as underwriter (the "Underwriter") in connection with
a public offering (the "Offering") of 1,900,000 Units (the "Public Units")

Except as specifically otherwise provided herein, the Common
Stock and the Warrants issued pursuant to the option herein granted (the
"Option") shall bear the same terms and conditions as described under the
caption "Description of Securities" in the Registration Statement, and the
Warrants shall be governed by the terms of the Warrant Agreement dated as of
_______, 1997 executed in connection with such public offering (the "Warrant
Agreement"), and except that (i) the holder shall have registration rights under

Option and (ii) the Warrants issuable upon exercise of the Option will be
subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to the Warrant Agreement at any
time after the Option has been exercised and the Warrants underlying the Option
Units are outstanding. Any such redemption shall be on the same terms and
conditions as the Warrants included in the Public Units (the "Public Warrants").
The Company will list the Common Stock underlying this Option and, at the
Holder's request the Warrants, on the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq Small
Cap Market or such other exchange or market as the Common Stock or Public
Warrants

may then be listed or quoted. In the event of any extension of the expiration
date or reduction of the exercise price of the Public Warrants, the same changes
to the Warrants included in the Option Units shall be simultaneously effected.
1. The rights represented by this Option shall be exercised at
the prices, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 8 of this Option
("the "Exercise Price"), and during the periods as follows:
(a) During the period from _______, 1997 to
_______, 2000 inclusive, the Holder shall have no right to
purchase any Option Units hereunder, except that in the
event of any merger, consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all the capital stock or assets of the
Company or in the case of any statutory exchange of
securities with another corporation (including any exchange
effected in connection with a merger of another corporation
into the Company) subsequent to _______, the Holder shall
have the right to exercise this Option and the Warrants
included herein at such time and receive the kind and
amount of shares of stock and other securities and property
(including cash) which a holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock underlying this Option and the Warrants
included in this Option would have owned or been entitled
to receive had this Option been exercised immediately prior
thereto.
(b) Between _______, 2000 and _______,2002
inclusive, the Holder shall have the option to purchase
Option Units hereunder at a price of $7.50 per Unit [150%
of the price of the Public Units].
(c) After _________, 2002 the Holder shall have no
right to purchase any Units hereunder.
2. (a) The rights represented by this Option may be exercised
at any time within the period above specified, in whole or in part, by (i) the
surrender of this Option (with the purchase form at the end hereof properly
executed) at the principal executive office of the Company (or such other office
or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder
at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company); and (ii)
payment to the Company of the exercise price then in effect for the number of
Option Units specified in the above-mentioned purchase form together with
applicable stock transfer taxes, if any. This Option shall be deemed to have
been exercised, in whole or in part to the extent specified, immediately prior
to the close of business on the date this Option is surrendered and payment is
made in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, and the
person or persons in whose name or names the certificates for shares of Class A
Common Stock and Warrants shall be issuable upon such exercise shall become the
holder or holders of record of such Class A Common Stock and Warrants at that
time and date. The certificates for the Common Stock and Warrants so purchased
shall be delivered to the Holder as soon as
-2-

practicable but not later than ten (10) days after the rights represented by
this Option shall have been so exercised.
(b) At any time during the period above specified,
during which this Option may be exercised, the Holder may, at its option,
exchange this Option, in whole or in part (an "Option Exchange"), into the
number of Option Units determined in accordance with this Section (b), by
surrendering this Option at the principal office of the Company or at the office
of its stock transfer agent, accompanied by a notice stating such ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s
intent to effect such exchange, the number of Option Units into which this
Option is to be exchanged and the date on which the Holder requests that such
Option Exchange occur (the "Notice of Exchange"). The Option Exchange shall take
place on the date specified in the Notice of Exchange or, if later, the date the
Notice of Exchange is received by the Company (the "Exchange Date").
Certificates for the shares of Class A Common Stock and Warrants issuable upon
such Option Exchange and, if applicable, a new Option of like tenor evidencing
the balance of the Option Units remaining subject to this Option, shall be
issued as of the Exchange Date and delivered to the Holder within seven (7) days
following the Exchange Date. In connection with any Option Exchange, this Option
shall represent the right to subscribe for and acquire the number of Option
Units (rounded to the next highest integer) equal to (x) the number of Option
Units specified by the Holder in its Notice of Exchange up to the maximum number
of Option Units subject to this option (the "Total Number") less (y) the number
of Option Units equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the product of
the Total Number and the existing Exercise Price by (B) the Fair Market Value.
"Fair Market Value" shall mean first, if there is a trading market as indicated
in Subsection (i) below for the Units, such Fair Market Value of the Units and
if there is no such trading market in the Units, then Fair Market Value shall
have the meaning indicated in Subsections (ii) through (v) below for the
aggregate value of all shares of Class A Common Stock and Warrants which
comprise a Unit:
(i) If the Units are listed on a national securities
exchange or listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges
on such exchange or listed for trading on the Nasdaq National
Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the Fair Market Value
shall be the average of the last reported sale prices or the
average of the means of the last reported bid and asked
prices, respectively, of the Units on such exchange or market
for five (5) business days ending on the last business day
prior to the Exchange Date; or
(ii) If the Class A Common Stock or Warrants are
listed on a national securities exchange or admitted to
unlisted trading privileges on such exchange or listed for
trading on the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market, the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the last
reported sale prices or the average of the means of the last
reported bid and asked prices, respectively, of Class A Common
Stock or Warrants, respectively, on such exchange or market
for the twenty (20) business days ending on the last business
day prior to the Exchange Date; or
-3-
4
(iii) If the Class A Common Stock or Warrants are not
so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges, the Fair
Market Value shall be the average of the means of the last
reported bid and asked prices of the Class A Common Stock or
Warrants, respectively, for the five (5) business days ending
on the last business day prior to the Exchange Date; or
(iv) If the Class A Common Stock is not so listed or
admitted to unlisted trading privileges and bid and asked
prices are not so reported, the Fair Market Value shall be an
amount, not less than book value thereof as at the end of the
most recent fiscal year of the Company ending prior to the
Exchange Date, determined in such reasonable manner as may be
prescribed by the Board of Directors of the Company; or
(v) If the Warrants are not so listed or admitted to
unlisted trading privileges, and bid and asked prices are not
so reported for Warrants, then Fair Market Value for the
Warrants shall be an amount equal to the difference between
(i) the Fair Market Value of the shares of Class A Common
Stock and Warrants which may be received upon the exercise of
the Warrants, as determined herein, and (ii) the Warrant
Exercise Price.
3. Neither this Option nor the underlying securities shall be
transferred, sold, assigned, or hypothecated for a period of two years
commencing on the effective date of the Registration Statement except that they
may be transferred to successors of the Holder, and may be assigned in whole or
in part to any person who is an officer of the Holder, any member participating
in the selling group relating to the Offering or any officer of such selling
group member. Any such assignment shall be effected by the Holder (i) executing
the form of assignment at the end hereof and (ii) surrendering this Option for
cancellation at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Section 2
hereof, accompanied by a certificate (signed by an officer of the Holder if the
Holder is a corporation), stating that each transferee is a permitted transferee
under this Section 3 hereof; whereupon the Company shall issue, in the name or
names specified by the Holder (including the Holder) a new Option or Options of
like tenor and representing in the aggregate rights to purchase the same number
of Option Units as are purchasable hereunder.
4. The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Class A
Common Stock which may be issued as part of the Option Units purchased hereunder
and the Class A Common Stock which may be issued upon exercise of the Warrants
will, upon issuance, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
and no personal liability will attach to the holder thereof. The Company further
covenants and agrees that during the periods within which this Option may be
exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a
sufficient number of shares of its Class A Common Stock to provide for the
exercise of this Option and that it will have authorized and reserved a
sufficient number of shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance upon exercise
of the Warrants included in the Option Units.
-4-

5. This Option shall not entitle the Holder to any voting
rights or any other rights, or subject to the Holder to any liabilities, as a
stockholder of the Company.
6. (a) The Company shall advise the Holder or its transferee,
whether the Holder holds the Option or has exercised the Option and holds Option
Units or any of the securities underlying the Option Units, by written notice at
least four weeks prior to the filing of any post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement or of any new registration statement or post-effective
amendment thereto under the Act covering any securities of the Company, for its
own account or for the account of others, and will for a period of seven years
from the effective date of the Registration Statement, upon the request of the
Holder, include in any such post-effective amendment or registration statement,
such information as may be required to permit a public offering of the Option,
all or any of the Option Units, the Common Stock or Warrants included in the
Option Units or the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants (the
"Registrable Securities"); provided, however, the right of any Holder to include
its Registrable Securities in any such post-effective amendment or registration
statement may be waived by the written consent of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ Investment Banking
Corp., ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. Inc. or ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.
(b) If ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ Investment Banking Corp., ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ &
Co., Inc. or ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, (each a "Majority Holder") shall give notice to
the Company at any time to the effect that such holder desires to register under
the Act this Option, the Option Units or any of the underlying securities
contained in the Option Units under such circumstances that a public
distribution (within the meaning of the Act) of any such securities will be
involved then the Company will promptly, but no later than two weeks after
receipt of such notice, file a post-effective amendment to the current
Registration Statement or a new registration statement on pursuant to the Act or
such other form as the holder requests pursuant to the Act, to the end that the
Option, the Option Units and/or any of the securities underlying the Option
Units may be publicly sold under the Act as promptly as practicable thereafter
and the Company will use its best efforts to cause such registration to become
and remain effective (including the taking of such steps as are necessary to
obtain the removal of any stop order); provided, that such holder shall furnish
the Company with appropriate information in connection therewith as the Company
may reasonably request in writing. The Majority Holder may, at its option,
request the filing of a post-effective amendment to the current Registration
Statement or a new registration statement under the Act on one occasion during
the four year period beginning one year from the effective date of the
Registration Statement. The Majority Holder may, at its option request the
registration of the Option and/or any of the securities underlying the Option in
a registration statement made by the Company as contemplated by Section 6(a) or
in connection with a request made pursuant to this Section 6(b) prior to
acquisition of the Option Units issuable upon exercise of the Option and even
though the Majority Holder has not given notice of exercise of the Option. The
Majority Holder may, at its option, request such post-effective amendment or new
registration statement during the described period with respect to the Option,
the Option Units as a unit, or separately as to the Class A Common Stock and/or
Warrants included in the Option Units and/or the Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of the Warrants, and such registration
-5-
6
rights may be exercised by the Majority Holder prior to or subsequent to the
exercise of the Option.
Within ten days after receiving any such notice pursuant to
this Section 6(b), the Company shall give notice to the other holders of the
Options, advising that the Company is proceeding with such post-effective
amendment or registration statement and offering to include therein the
securities underlying the Options of the other holders, provided that they shall
furnish the Company with such appropriate information (relating to the
intentions of such holders) in connection therewith as the Company shall
reasonably request in writing. In the event the registration statement is not
filed within the period specified herein, and in the event the registration
statement is not declared effective under the Act prior to , 2002, then, at the
holders' request, the Company shall purchase the Options from the holder for a
per option price equal to the difference between (i) the Fair Market Value of
the Class A Common Stock on the date of notice multiplied by the number of
shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option and the
underlying Warrants and (ii) the average per share purchase price of the Option
and each share of Class A Common Stock underlying the Option. All costs and
expenses of the first such post-effective amendment or new registration
statement under this paragraph 6(b) shall be borne by the Company, except that
the holders shall bear the fees of their own counsel and any underwriting
discounts or commissions applicable to any of the securities sold by them.
The Company will maintain such registration statement or
post-effective amendment current under the Act for a period of at least six
months (and for up to an additional three months if requested by the Holder)
from the effective date thereof.
(c) Whenever pursuant to Section 6 a registration statement
relating to any Registrable Securities is filed under the Act, amended or
supplemented, the Company shall (i) supply prospectuses and such other documents
as the Holder may request in order to facilitate the public sale or other
disposition of the Registrable Securities, (ii) use its best efforts to register
and qualify any of the Registrable Securities for sale in such states as such
Holder designates, (iii) furnish indemnification in the manner provided in
Section 7 hereof, (iv) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities at any time
when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the
prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, contains
an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading and, at the request of any such Holder, prepare and furnish to such
Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such
prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the
purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not included an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and
(v) do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or desirable to
enable such Holders to consummate the public sale or other disposition of the
Registrable Securities, The Holder shall furnish appropriate information in
connection therewith and indemnification as set forth in Section 7.
-6-

(d) The Company shall not permit the inclusion of any
securities other than the Registrable Securities to be included in any
registration statement filed pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof without the prior
written consent of the Majority Holder.
(f) The Company shall furnish to each Holder participating
in the offering and to each underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed
to such Holder or underwriter, of (i) an opinion of counsel to the Company,
dated the effective date of such registration statement (or, if such
registration includes an underwritten public offering, an opinion dated the date
of the closing under the underwriting agreement), and (ii) if such registration
includes an underwritten public offering, a "cold comfort" letter dated the
effective date of such registration statement and dated the date of the closing
under the underwriting agreement signed by the independent public accountants
who have issued a report on the Company's financial statements included in such
registration statement, in each case covering substantially the same matters
with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus included
therein) and, in the case of such accountants' letter, with respect to events
subsequent to the date of such financial statements, as are customarily covered
in opinions of issuer's counsel and in accountants' letters delivered to
underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities.
(g) The Company shall deliver promptly to each Holder
participating in the offering requesting the correspondence and memoranda
described below and to the managing underwriter copies of all correspondence
between the Commission and the Company, its counsel or auditors and all
memoranda relating to discussions with the Commission or its staff with respect
to the registration statement and permit each Holder and underwriter to do such
investigation, upon reasonable advance notice, with respect to information
contained in or omitted from the registration statement as it deems reasonable
necessary to comply with applicable securities laws or rules of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"). Such investigation shall
include access to non-confidential books, records and properties and
opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its officers and
independent auditors, all to such reasonable extent and at such reasonable times
as any such Holder shall reasonably request.
7. (a) Whenever pursuant to Section 6 a registration statement
relating to the Registrable Securities is filed under the Act, amended or
supplemented, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each holder of the
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, amendment or
supplement (such holder being hereinafter called the "Distributing Holder"), and
each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of the Act) the
Distributing Holder, and each underwriter (within the meaning of the Act) of
such securities and each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of the
Act) any such underwriter, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
joint or several, to which the Distributing Holder, any such controlling person
or any such underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar
as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in any such registration statement or any
preliminary prospectus or final
-7-
8
prospectus constituting a part thereof or any amendment or supplement thereto,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading; and will reimburse the Distributing Holder and each such controlling
person and underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
the Distributing Holder or such controlling person or underwriter in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case
to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in said registration statement, said preliminary
prospectus, said final prospectus or said amendment or supplement in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Distributing
Holder specifically for use in the preparation thereof.
(b) If requested by the Company prior to the filing of any
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities, each Distributing
Holder will agree, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company
may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in said registration statement,
said preliminary prospectus, said final prospectus, or said amendment or
supplement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission was made in said registration
statement, said preliminary prospectus, said final prospectus or said amendment
or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished by such Distributing Holder specifically for use in the preparation
thereof; except that the maximum amount which may be recovered from the
Distributing Holder pursuant to this Section 7 or otherwise shall be limited to
the amount of net proceeds received by the Distributing Holder from the sale of
the Registrable Securities.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying
party, give the indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof; but the
omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any
liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this
Section 7.
(d) In case any such action is brought against any
indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the
extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this
Section 7 for any legal or other expenses
-8-
9
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.
(8) In addition to the provisions of Section 1(a) of this
Option, the Exercise Price in effect at any time and the number and kind of
securities purchasable upon the exercise of the Options shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:
(a) In case the Company shall (i) declare a dividend or
make a distribution on its outstanding shares of Common Stock
in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise
Price in effect at the time of the record date for such
dividend or distribution or of the effective date of such
subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted
so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the
Exercise Price by a fraction, the denominator of which shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after
giving effect to such action, and the numerator of which shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such action. Such adjustment shall be
made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.
(b) Whenever the Exercise Price payable upon exercise of
each Option is adjusted pursuant to Subsections (a) above, (i)
the number of shares of Class A Common Stock included in an
Option Unit shall simultaneously be adjusted by multiplying
the number of shares of Class A Common Stock included in
Option Unit immediately prior to such adjustment by the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment
and dividing the product so obtained by the Exercise Price, as
adjusted and (ii) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock
or other securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
included in the Option Units and the exercise price of such
Warrants shall be adjusted in accordance with the applicable
terms of the Warrant Agreement.
(c) No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required
unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease
of at least five cents ($0.05) in such price; provided,
however, that any adjustments which by reason of this
Subsection (c) are not required to be made shall be carried
forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment
required to be made hereunder. All calculations under this
Section 8 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest
one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. Anything in this
Section 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall
be entitled, but shall not be required, to make such changes
in the Exercise Price, in addition to those required by this
Section 8, as it shall determine, in its sole discretion, to
be advisable in order that any dividend or distribution in
shares of Common Stock, or any subdivision,
-9-
10
reclassification or combination of Common Stock, hereafter
made by the Company shall not result in any Federal Income tax
liability to the holders of Common Stock or securities
convertible into Common Stock (including Warrants issuable
upon exercise of this Option).
(d) Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein
provided, the Company shall promptly but no later than 10 days
after any request for such an adjustment by the Holder, cause
a notice setting forth the adjusted Exercise Price and
adjusted number of Option Units issuable upon exercise of each
Option and, if requested, information describing the
transactions giving rise to such adjustments, to be mailed to
the Holders, at the address set forth herein, and shall cause
a certified copy thereof to be mailed to its transfer agent,
if any. The Company may retain a firm of independent certified
public accountants selected by the Board of Directors (who may
be the regular accountants employed by the Company) to make
any computation required by this Section 8, and a certificate
signed by such firm shall be conclusive evidence of the
correctness of such adjustment.
(e) In the event that at any time, as a result of an
adjustment made pursuant to Subsection (a) above, the Holder
of this Option thereafter shall become entitled to receive any
shares of the Company, other than Common Stock, thereafter the
number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of
this Option shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable
to the provisions with respect to the Common Stock contained
in Subsections (a) to (d), inclusive above.
(f) In case any event shall occur as to which the other
provisions of this Section 8 or Section 1(a) hereof are not
strictly applicable but as to which the failure to make any
adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights
represented by this Option in accordance with the essential
intent and principles hereof then, in each such case, the
Holders of Options representing the right to purchase a
majority of the Option Units may appoint a firm of independent
public accountants reasonably acceptable to the Company, which
shall give their opinion as to the adjustment, if any, on a
basis consistent with the essential intent and principles
established herein, necessary to preserve the purchase rights
represented by the Options. Upon receipt of such opinion, the
Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of
this Option and shall make the adjustments described therein.
The fees and expenses of such independent public accountants
shall be borne by the Company.
9. This Agreement shall be governed by and in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of
conflicts of law thereof.
