Price Adjustment.

Company shall effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Purchase
Price then in effect immediately before such subdivision shall be

outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Purchase Price then in effect
immediately before the combination shall be proportionately
increased. If the Company shall make or issue a dividend or other
distribution payable in securities, then and in each such event provision shall
be made so that the holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise hereof,
in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the
amount of securities that the holder of this Warrant would have received had
this Warrant been exercised for Common Stock on the date of such event and had
such holder thereafter during the period from the date of such event to and
including the date of exercise of this Warrant retained such securities
receivable by such holder as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all
adjustments called for during such period under this paragraph. If
the Company shall reclassify its Common Stock (including any reclassification in
connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation), then and in each such event provision shall be made so that such
holder shall receive upon exercise hereof the amount of such reclassified Common
Stock that such holder would have received had this Warrant been exercised for
Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification and had such holder
thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the
date of exercise of this Warrant, retained such reclassified Common Stock,
giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period under this
paragraph with respect to the rights of the holder of this
Warrant.
(b) In case
of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation
or the conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to
another corporation, this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable (to the extent
such exercise is permitted hereunder) into the number of shares of stock or
other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Company deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been
entitled upon such consolidation, merger or conveyance; and, in any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions herein
set forth with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holder of
this Warrant, to the end that the provisions set forth herein shall be
thereafter applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares
of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the this
Warrant.
3. VALID
ISSUANCE; TAXES.
All
shares of Warrant Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; provided that the Company shall
pay all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of
the issue or delivery thereof. The Company shall not be required to
pay any tax or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in
the issuance of any certificate for shares of Warrant Stock in any name other
than that of the Registered Holder of this Warrant, and in such case the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver any stock certificate or security
until such tax or other charge has been paid, or it has been established to the
Company's reasonable satisfaction that no tax or other charge is
due.
-4-
4. LOSS
OR MUTILATION.
Upon
receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the ownership of
and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and of indemnity

and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver in lieu
thereof a new Warrant of like tenor as the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated
Warrant.
5. RESERVATION
OF WARRANT STOCK.
The
Company hereby covenants that at all times there shall be reserved for issuance
and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of Warrant
Stock, Common Stock or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from
time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and, from time to time, will
take all steps necessary to amend its Certificate of Incorporation to
provide sufficient reserves of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant. All such shares shall be duly authorized, and when
issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and
other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive
rights, except encumbrances or restrictions arising under federal or state
securities laws. Issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full
authority to the Company's officers who are charged with the duty of executing
stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of
Warrant Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.

ON TRANSFER.

Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that, absent an effective registration
statement filed with the SEC under the Act covering the disposition or sale of
this Warrant or the Warrant Stock issued or issuable upon exercise hereof, as
the case may be, and registration or qualification under applicable state
securities laws, such Holder will not sell, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate any

satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such registration is not
required in connection with such disposition.
