dividend.

to equal One ($1.00) Dollar per share multiplied by the fraction equal to the
number of Shares represented by this Warrant divided by the number of shares of
common stock of the Survivor which would have been exchanged for the Shares at
the closing of the merger.
In the event the Company undertakes a registration of any share in the Company,
the Company shall include in such registration the Shares, subject to customary
cutbacks and other customary underwriters' requirements.
This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with a the laws of
the State of California. Any controversy or claim arising under, out of or in
