Price and the number of shares purchasable hereunder (the "Subject Stock") being
subject to adjustment as set forth in this Common Stock Purchase Warrant (this
"Warrant").
This Warrant is subject to the following further terms and conditions:
Section 1. EXERCISE. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant
shall be exercisable, at the option of the Holder (as herein defined), for all
or part of the Subject Stock, subject to adjustment as hereinafter set forth,
commencing on the date of this Warrant. The purchase rights represented by this
Warrant shall expire on the fifth anniversary hereof. Upon presentation and
surrender of this Warrant, with written notice in the form of Exhibit A from the
Holder of its exercise, together with payment of the Purchase Price then in
effect for the shares of Common Stock thereby purchased, at the principal office
of the Company, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate or
certificates representing the shares of Common Stock so purchased. The term
"Holder" shall include any person to whom this Warrant has been transferred as
permitted by the terms of this Warrant. All shares which may be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonAassessable
and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect thereto.
Section 2. CONSIDERATION. This Warrant has been issued to the Holder in
partial consideration of an investment in certain debt securities of the Company
made contemporaneously herewith pursuant to a letter agreement dated [ ], 1998
between the Holder and the Company.
Section 3. ADJUSTMENTS.
(3.1) Stock Splits. After the date hereof, in case the Company
shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares, whether by stock dividend, stock split or otherwise,
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
hereunder shall be proportionately increased. In case the outstanding shares of
Common Stock of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of shares,
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
hereunder shall be proportionately reduced.
(3.2) Reclassifications. After the date hereof, in case of any
reclassification or change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock (except
under the circumstances contemplated in Section 3(a)), or in case of any
consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party (except a merger in
which the Company is the surviving corporation and which does not result in any
reclassification or change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in
case of any sale or conveyance to another person or entity of all or
substantially all of the property of the Company, effective provision shall be
made by the Company or by the successor or purchasing person or entity that the
Holder shall have the right, upon presentation and surrender of this Warrant,
with written notice from the Holder of its exercise, together with payment of
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such reclassification, change,
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyances for the number of shares that but for
such transaction would have been purchased hereunder, to receive the kind and
amount of stock and other securities and property receivable in such transaction
by a holder of such number of shares.
(3.3) No Other Antidilution Rights. Except as expressly set
forth herein, the Holder shall not be entitled to any antiAdilution rights with
respect to either (i) the number and kind of shares subject to this Warrant or
(ii) the Purchase Price.
Section 4. REPLACEMENT. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or
security reasonably satisfactory to it, and reimbursement to the Company of all
reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of
this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a replacement
warrant of like tenor, in lieu of this Warrant. Further, if the Holder of this
Warrant exercises the purchase rights granted hereunder in part but not in
whole, the Company agrees that it will deliver to the Holder a replacement
warrant which will entitle the Holder thereof to purchase the number of shares
of Common Stock that remain as yet unpurchased under this Warrant on the terms
and conditions set forth herein.
Section 5. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to
issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock, but
may, at its option, in respect of any fraction of a share make a payment in cash
based on the Purchase Price.
Section 6. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company shall reserve and keep
available a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to satisfy the
requirements of this Warrant. Before taking any action which would cause an
adjustment reducing the Purchase Price below the then par value of the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take any
corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be reasonably
necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and
nonAassessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Purchase Price.
Section 7. NOTICES. All notices, requests, consents or other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
made when delivered or mailed firstAclass postage prepaid as follows:

taxes or for payment of any such taxes. Holder shall rely solely on its own tax
advisor and shall be solely responsible for payment of any resulting taxes.
