Expiration  Date,  Holder may exercise  this  Warrant,  on any Business  Day, in
increments of 1,000 shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder.

this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to
be  purchased,  (ii) payment of the Warrant Price in cash or by wire transfer or
cashier's  check drawn on a United  States bank,  and (iii) this  Warrant.  Such
notice shall be substantially in the form of the subscription  form appearing at
the end of this  Warrant as Exhibit A, duly  executed  by Holder or its agent or
attorney.  Upon receipt of the items  referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii)
above,  the Company shall, as promptly as  practicable,  and in any event within
ten (10) Business Days  thereafter,  execute or cause to be executed and deliver
or cause to be delivered to Holder a certificate  or  certificates  representing
the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise,
together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter  provided.
The stock  certificate  or  certificates  so  delivered  shall be, to the extent
possible,  in such  denomination or denominations as Holder shall request in the
notice and shall be registered  in the name of Holder or,  subject to Section 9,

for all purposes, as of the date the notice,  together with the cash or check or
checks and this Warrant,  is received by the Company as described  above and all
taxes  required to be paid by Holder,  if any,  pursuant to Section 3.1 prior to
the  issuance  of such shares have been paid.  If this  Warrant  shall have been
exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate
or certificates  representing  Warrant  Shares,  deliver to Holder a new Warrant
evidencing  the rights of Holder to purchase  the  unpurchased  shares of Common

Notwithstanding  any provision herein to the contrary,  the Company shall not be
required to register  shares in the name of any Person who acquired this Warrant
(or part hereof) or any Warrant Shares  otherwise  than in accordance  with this
Warrant and the Holdback Agreement.

2.2 Manner of Exchange of Warrant.  From and after the date which is ninety (90)
days following Funding Date (the "Exchange Period  Commencement Date") and until
5:00 P.M.,  New York City time,  on the  Expiration  Date,  Holder  may,  on any
Business Day,  exchange  this Warrant for shares of Common Stock (the  "Exchange
Shares") equal to the number of Warrants granted  hereunder,  provide,  however,
that the Holder may not exercise  its right to exchange  this Warrant for Common
Stock if (i) on the Exchange Period Commencement Date the Market Price per share
of Common Stock is greater than or equal to $20.00,  and (ii) the average  daily
trading volume for the shares of the Common Stock during any thirty  consecutive
trading day period prior to the  Exchange  Period  Commencement  Date is greater
than thirty five thousand (35,000).

            Upon the exchange of this Warrant  pursuant to this Section 2.2, the
Common Stock issued to the Holder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and the
Exchange  Shares issued  pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall,  in addition to the
restrictions  under  the  Securities  Act  and  set  forth  herein  and  in  the
Subscription Agreement, be subject to the to the Transfer restrictions set forth
in the Holdback Agreement.

            In order to exercise  your right to exchange this Warrant for Common
Stock,  Holder shall deliver to the Company at its principal  office at 15271 NW
60th Avenue,  Miami Lakes,  Florida 33014, or at the office or agency designated
by the Company pursuant to Section 12, (i) a written notice of Holder's election
to exchange this Warrant and receive the Exchange Shares, and (ii) this Warrant.
Such notice shall be  substantially  in the form of the notice form appearing at
the end of this  Warrant as Exhibit B, duly  executed  by Holder or its agent or
attorney.  Upon receipt of the items  referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above,
the Company shall, as promptly as practicable,  and in any event within ten (10)
Business Days  thereafter,  execute or cause to be executed and deliver or cause
to be  delivered to Holder,  a  certificate  or  certificates  representing  the
aggregate  number of Exchange Shares issuable upon such exchange,  together with
cash in lieu of any  fraction of a share,  as  hereinafter  provided.  The stock
certificate or certificates so delivered  shall be, to the extent  possible,  in
such  denomination  or  denominations  as Holder shall request in the notice and
shall be registered  in the name of Holder or,  subject to Section 9, such other
name as shall be designated in the notice.  This Warrant shall be deemed to have
been exchanged and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been
issued,  and Holder or any other Person so  designated to be named therein shall
be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes,  as
of the date the notice,  together with this Warrant,  is received by the Company
as described above and all taxes required to be paid by Holder, if any, pursuant
to  Section  3.1  prior to the  issuance  of such  shares  have  been  paid for.
Notwithstanding  any provision herein to the contrary,  the Company shall not be
required to register  shares in the name of any Person who acquired this Warrant
(or part hereof) or any Warrant Shares  otherwise  than in accordance  with this
Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement.

2.3 Fractional  Shares.  The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional
share of Common  Stock upon  exercise  or  exchange  of any  Warrant.  As to any
fraction of a share which  Holder would  otherwise be entitled to purchase  upon
such exercise,  the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount  equal to the same  fraction of the Market Price per share
of Common Stock as of the Initial Funding Date.

2.4  Continued  Validity.  A holder of shares of Common  Stock  issued  upon the
exercise or exchange of this  Warrant,  in whole or in part (other than a holder
who acquires  such shares after the same have been  publicly  sold pursuant to a
Registration  Statement  under the  Securities  Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144
thereunder),  shall  continue to be entitled  with respect to such shares to all
rights to which it would have been  entitled as Holder under  Sections 9, 10 and
14 of this  Warrant.  The Company  will,  at the time of exercise or exchange of
this Warrant,  in whole or in part,  upon the request of Holder,  acknowledge in
writing, in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, its continuing obligation to
afford Holder all such rights;  provided,  however, that if Holder shall fail to
make any such request,  such failure shall not affect the continuing  obligation
of the Company to afford to Holder all such rights.

3.          TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION

3.1 Transfer.  Subject to compliance with the Subscription Agreement and Section
3.1 and Section 9 herein,  transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in
whole or in  part,  shall  be  registered  on the  books  of the  Company  to be
maintained  for such  purpose,  upon  surrender of this Warrant at the principal
office  of the  Company  referred  to in  Section  2.1 or the  office  or agency
designated  by the  Company  pursuant  to Section  12,  together  with a written
assignment  of this Warrant  substantially  in the form of Exhibit C hereto duly
executed  by Holder or its agent or  attorney  and funds  sufficient  to pay any
transfer  taxes payable upon the making of such  transfer.  Upon such  surrender
and, if required, such payment, the Company shall, subject to Section 9, execute
and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the  permitted  assignee or
assignees and in the  denomination  specified in such  instrument of assignment,
and shall  issue to the  assignor a new Warrant  evidencing  the portion of this
Warrant  not so  assigned,  and this  Warrant  shall  promptly be  cancelled.  A
Warrant,  if properly assigned in compliance with Section 9, may be exercised or
exchange  by a new Holder for the  purchase  of shares of Common  Stock  without
having a new Warrant issued.

3.2 Division and Combination.  Subject to Section 3.1 and 9, this Warrant may be
divided  or  combined  with  other  Warrants  upon  presentation  hereof  at the
aforesaid  office or  agency  of the  Company,  together  with a written  notice
specifying the names and  denominations  in which new Warrants are to be issued,
signed by Holder or its agent or attorney.  Subject to  compliance  with Section
3.1 and Section 9, as to any transfer  which may be involved in such division or
combination,  the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in
exchange  for the Warrant or  Warrants  to be divided or combined in  accordance
with such notice.

3.3 Expenses.  The Company shall  prepare,  issue and deliver at its own expense
(other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 3.

3.4         Maintenance of Books.  The Company agrees to maintain, at its
aforesaid office or agency, books for the registration and the registration
of transfer of the Warrants.

4.          ADJUSTMENTS

      The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
or  exchangeable,  or the  price at which  such  shares  may be  purchased  upon
exercise of this Warrant,  shall be subject to  adjustment  from time to time as
set forth in this Section 4. The Company  shall give Holder  notice of any event
described  below which requires an adjustment  pursuant to this Section 4 at the
time of such event.

4.1         Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations.  If at any time
the Company shall:

(a)   take a record  of the  holders  of its  Common  Stock for the  purpose  of
      entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of,
      Additional Shares of Common Stock,

(b)         subdivide its Outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger
      number of shares of Common Stock, or

(c)         combine its Outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
      number of shares of Common Stock,

then (i) the  number  of  shares of Common  Stock  for  which  this  Warrant  is
exercisable or exchangeable  immediately  after the occurrence of any such event
shall be adjusted  to equal the number of shares of Common  Stock which a record
holder of the same  number of shares of Common  Stock for which this  Warrant is
exercisable or  exchangeable  immediately  prior to the occurrence of such event
would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event,  and (ii)
the Current  Warrant  Price  shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Current  Warrant
Price  multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant
is exercisable or exchangeable  immediately  prior to the adjustment  divided by
(B) the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after
such adjustment.

4.2         Certain Other Distributions.  If at any time the Company shall
take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling
them to receive any dividend or other distribution of:

(a)         cash,

(b)   any  evidences of its  indebtedness,  any shares of its stock or any other
      securities  or  property  of  any  nature  whatsoever  (other  than  cash,
      Convertible Securities or Additional Shares of Common Stock), or

(c)   any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of
      its  indebtedness,  any  shares of its stock or any  other  securities  or
      property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Convertible Securities
      or Additional Shares of Common Stock),

then Holder shall be entitled to receive  such  dividend or  distribution  as if
Holder had exercised this Warrant. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other
than a change  in par  value,  or from par  value to no par value or from no par
value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of
stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Company to the holders of its Common
Stock of such  shares of such other  class of stock  within the  meaning of this
Section 4.2 and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into
a  larger  or  smaller  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  as a part of such
reclassification,  such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination,  as
the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of
Section 4.1.

4.3 Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The following
provisions  shall be  applicable to the making of  adjustments  of the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable or exchangeable and
the Current Warrant Price provided for in this Section 4:

(a)   When  Adjustments to Be Made. The  adjustments  required by this Section 4
      shall be made  whenever and as often as any specified  event  requiring an
      adjustment shall occur.  For the purpose of any adjustment,  any specified
      event  shall be deemed to have  occurred  at the close of  business on the
      date of its occurrence.

(b)         Fractional Interests.  In computing adjustments under this
      Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into
      account to the nearest 1/10th of a share.

(c)         When Adjustment Not Required.  If the Company shall take a record
      of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
      receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights
      and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders
      thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend,
      distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no
      adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and
      any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be
      rescinded and annulled.

(d)   Challenge to Good Faith Determination.  Whenever the Board of Directors of
      the Company shall be required to make a determination in good faith of the
      fair  value of any item under this  Section 4, such  determination  may be
      challenged in good faith by the Holder,  and any dispute shall be resolved
      by an investment banking firm of recognized  national standing selected by
      the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Holder.

4.4 Reorganization,  Reclassification,  Merger,  Consolidation or Disposition of
Assets.  If the Company shall  reorganize  its capital,  reclassify  its capital
stock,  consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company
is not the surviving  corporation or where there is a change in or  distribution
with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of all or  substantially  all of its  property,  assets or  business  to
another  corporation  and,  pursuant  to  the  terms  of  such   reorganization,
reclassification,  merger,  consolidation  or disposition  of assets,  shares of
common stock of the successor or acquiring  corporation,  or any cash, shares of
stock or other  securities  or  property  of any  nature  whatsoever  (including
warrants or other  subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of
common stock of the successor or acquiring  corporation ("Other Property"),  are
to be received by or  distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company,
then Holder shall have the right  thereafter  to receive,  upon  exercise of the
Warrant  within ten (10)  business days  following the Company's  notice of such
event,  the  number  of shares of common  stock of the  successor  or  acquiring
corporation  or of the Company,  if it is the surviving  corporation,  and Other
Property   receivable   upon   or   as  a   result   of   such   reorganization,
reclassification,  merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of
the  number of shares of Common  Stock for which  this  Warrant  is  exercisable
immediately  prior  to  such  event.  In the  case of any  such  reorganization,
reclassification,  merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring  corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the
due and  punctual  observance  and  performance  of each and every  covenant and
condition of this  Warrant to be  performed  and observed by the Company and all
the obligations and liabilities hereunder,  subject to such modifications as may
be deemed  appropriate (as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Company) in order to provide for  adjustments  of shares of Common Stock for
which  this  Warrant  is  exercisable  which  shall be as nearly  equivalent  as
practicable to the  adjustments  provided for in this Section 4. For purposes of
this Section 4.4, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall
include  stock of such  corporation  of any class which is not  preferred  as to
dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such  corporation and which
is  not  subject  to  redemption   and  shall  also  include  any  evidences  of
indebtedness,  shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or
exchangeable  for any such stock,  either  immediately  or upon the arrival of a
specified  date or the happening of a specified  event and any warrants or other
rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing  provisions of
this  Section  4.4  shall   similarly   apply  to  successive   reorganizations,
reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.

4.5 Other Action Affecting Common Stock. If at any time or from time to time the
Company  shall take any action in  respect of its Common  Stock,  other than any
action described in this Section 4, which would have a materially adverse effect
upon the rights of the Holder,  the number of shares of Common  Stock and/or the
purchase  price  thereof shall be adjusted in such manner as may be equitable in
the circumstances,  as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Company.

4.6 Certain Limitations.  Notwithstanding  anything herein to the contrary,  the
Company  agrees  not to enter  into any  transaction  which,  by  reason  of any
adjustment hereunder,  would cause the Current Warrant Price to be less than the
par value per share of Common Stock.

5.          NOTICES TO HOLDER

5.1 Notice of  Adjustments.  Whenever  the number of shares of Common  Stock for
which this  Warrant is  exercisable  or  exchangeable,  or whenever the price at

Warrants,  shall be adjusted  pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall forthwith
prepare a  certificate  to be  executed  by the chief  financial  officer of the
Company setting forth, in reasonable  detail, the event requiring the adjustment
and the method by which such adjustment was calculated  (including a description
of the basis on which the Board of Directors of the Company  determined the fair
value of any evidences of  indebtedness,  shares of stock,  other  securities or
property or warrants or other  subscription  or purchase  rights  referred to in
Section  4.2),  specifying  the number of shares of Common  Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable or exchangeable and (if such adjustment was made pursuant
to Section  4.4 or 4.5)  describing  the number and kind of any other  shares of
stock or Other Property for which this warrant is  exercisable or  exchangeable,
and any change in the purchase price or prices  thereof,  after giving effect to
such  adjustment or change.  The Company shall  promptly  cause a signed copy of
such  certificate to be delivered to the Holder in accordance with Section 14.2.
The Company shall keep at its office or agency designated pursuant to Section 12
copies  of all  such  certificates  and  cause  the  same  to be  available  for
inspection  at said office  during  normal  business  hours by the Holder or any
prospective purchaser of a Warrant designated by the Holder.

5.2         Notice of Corporate Action.  If at any time

(a)   the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the
      purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution,  or
      any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its  indebtedness,
      any shares of stock of any class or any other  securities or property,  or
      to receive any other right, or

(b)   there  shall  be  any  capital   reorganization   of  the   Company,   any
      reclassification  or  recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company
      or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale,  transfer
      or other disposition of all or substantially  all the property,  assets or
      business of the Company to, another corporation, or

(c)         there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
      liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then, in any one or more of such cases,  the Company shall give to Holder (i) at
least ten 10 Business  Days' prior written  notice of the date on which a record
date  shall  be  selected  for  such  dividend,  distribution  or  right  or for
determining   rights   to  vote  in   respect   of  any   such   reorganization,
reclassification,    merger,   consolidation,   sale,   transfer,   disposition,
dissolution,  liquidation  or  winding  up,  and  (ii) in the  case of any  such
reorganization,   reclassification,   merger,  consolidation,   sale,  transfer,
disposition,  dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least ten (10) Business
Days'  prior  written  notice of the date when the same shall take  place.  Such
notice in accordance  with the foregoing  clause also shall specify (i) the date
on which  any such  record  is to be taken  for the  purpose  of such  dividend,
distribution  or right,  the date on which the holders of Common  Stock shall be
entitled  to any such  dividend,  distribution  or  right,  and the  amount  and
character  thereof,  and  (ii)  the  date  on  which  any  such  reorganization,
reclassification,    merger,   consolidation,   sale,   transfer,   disposition,
dissolution,  liquidation  or winding  up is to take place and the time,  if any
such  time is to be fixed,  as of which the  holders  of Common  Stock  shall be
entitled  to  exchange  their  shares of Common  Stock for  securities  or other
property  deliverable  upon  such  reorganization,   reclassification,   merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,  dissolution, liquidation or winding
up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently  given if addressed to Holder
at the  last  address  of  Holder  appearing  on the  books of the  Company  and
delivered in accordance with Section 14.2.

6.          NO IMPAIRMENT

      (a) The Company shall not by any action,  including,  without  limitation,
amending  its  certificate  of  incorporation  or  through  any  reorganization,
transfer  of  assets,  consolidation,  merger,  dissolution,  issue  or  sale of
securities or any other voluntary action,  avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or  performance  of any of the terms of this  Warrant,  but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or  appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
against  impairment.  Without  limiting the  generality  of the  foregoing,  the
Company  will (i) not  increase  the par value of any  shares  of  Common  Stock
receivable  upon the  exercise  or  exchange  of this  Warrant  above the amount
payable  therefor  upon such  exercise  or  exchange  immediately  prior to such
increase  in par  value,  (ii)  take  all such  action  as may be  necessary  or
appropriate  in order that the Company may validly and legally  issue fully paid
and  nonassessable  shares of Common Stock upon the exercise or exchange of this
Warrant,  and (iii) use its best  efforts  to  obtain  all such  authorizations,
exemptions  or consents  from any public  regulatory  body  having  jurisdiction
thereof as may be  necessary  to enable the Company to perform  its  obligations
under this Warrant.

      (b) Upon the request of Holder,  the  Company  will at any time during the
period this Warrant is outstanding  acknowledge in writing, in form satisfactory
to Holder,  the continuing  validity of this Warrant and the  obligations of the
Company hereunder.

7.          RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK

      (a) From and  after  the  Funding  Date,  the  Company  shall at all times
reserve and keep  available  for issue upon the exercise or exchange of Warrants
such number of its  authorized  but  unissued  shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient  to  permit  the  exercise  or  exchange  in full of all  outstanding
Warrants.  All shares of Common  Stock which shall be so  issuable,  when issued
upon exercise or exchange of any Warrant and payment therefor in accordance with
the terms of such Warrant,  shall be duly and validly  issued and fully paid and
nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive rights.

      (b) Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment  reducing the
Current  Warrant Price below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise or exchange of the Warrants, the Company shall take
any  corporate  action  which may be  necessary  in order that the  Company  may
validly and legally  issue fully paid and  non-assessable  shares of such Common
Stock at such adjusted Current Warrant Price.

      (c) Before  taking any action which would result in an  adjustment  in the
number of shares of Common  Stock for  which  this  Warrant  is  exercisable  or
exchangeable or in the Current Warrant Price,  the Company shall obtain all such
authorizations or exemptions  thereof,  or consents thereto, as may be necessary
from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

8.          TAKING OF RECORD; STOCK AND WARRANT TRANSFER BOOKS

      In the case of all dividends or other  distributions by the Company to the
holders of its Common  Stock with  respect to which any  provision  of Section 4
refers to the taking of a record of such holders,  the Company will in each such
case take such a record and will take such record as of the close of business on
a Business  Day.  The Company  will not at any time,  except  upon  dissolution,
liquidation  or winding up of the  Company,  close its stock  transfer  books or
Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise or
transfer of any Warrant.

9.          RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY

      The  Warrants,  the Warrant  Shares and the  Exchange  Shares shall not be
transferred,  hypothecated  or assigned  before  satisfaction  of the conditions
specified in this Section 9 and the Holdback  Agreement,  which  conditions are,
among other things,  intended to ensure  compliance  with the  provisions of the
Securities  Act with  respect to the  Transfer  of any  Warrant  or any  Warrant
Shares.  Holder,  by  acceptance  of this  Warrant,  agrees  to be  bound by the
provisions of this Section 9 and the Holdback Agreement.

(a) Restrictive Legend. In addition to the Transfer restriction set forth herein
and in the  Holdback  Agreement,  the Holder by  accepting  this Warrant and any
Warrant  Shares and  Exchange  Shares  agrees that unless  registered  under the
Securities Act, this Warrant, the Warrant Shares and the Exchange Shares may not
be  assigned  or  otherwise  transferred  unless and until (i) the  Company  has
received an opinion of counsel  for the Holder  reasonably  satisfactory  to the
Company  and  its  counsel  that  such  securities  may be sold  pursuant  to an
exemption from  registration  under the  Securities  Act, or (ii) a Registration
Statement relating to such securities has been filed by the Company and declared
effective by the Commission.

(b)         Each certificate for Warrant Shares shall bear a legend as
follows:

                  "These   securities  have  not  been   registered   under  the
            Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the  "Securities  Act"),  or the
            securities  laws  of any  state,  and are  being  offered  and  sold
            pursuant to an exemption from the  registration  requirements of the
            Securities  Act and such laws.  These  securities may not be sold or
            transferred except pursuant to an effective  registration  statement
            under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available  exemption from
            the  registration  requirements  of the Securities Act or such other
            laws."



<PAGE>



(c) Each  certificate for Exchange  Shares and, upon exchange,  shares of Common
Stock acquired  pursuant to the Subscription  Agreement,  shall bear a legend as
follows:

                  "These   securities  have  not  been   registered   under  the
            Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the  "Securities  Act"),  or the
            securities  laws  of any  state,  and are  being  offered  and  sold
            pursuant to an exemption from the  registration  requirements of the
            Securities  Act and such laws.  These  securities may not be sold or
            transferred except pursuant to an effective  registration  statement
            under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available  exemption from
            the  registration  requirements  of the Securities Act or such other
            laws.

                  This certificate is subject to, and is transferable  only upon
            compliance with, the provisions of a Holdback  Agreement dated as of
            ____________,  2000,  by and  between  the Company and the Holder of
            this   certificate.   Any  direct  or  indirect  transfer  or  other
            disposition  or  encumbrance  of  the  shares  represented  by  this
            certificate in violation of the Holdback Agreement shall be invalid.
            A copy of the above-referenced  Holdback Agreement is in file at the
            offices of the Company."

(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, the Warrant shall be stamped
or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

                  "THIS  COMMON  STOCK  PURCHASE   WARRANT  AND  THE  SECURITIES
            REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
            OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN VIOLATION OF SUCH
            ACT, THE RULES AND REGULATIONS  THEREUNDER OR THE PROVISIONS OF THIS
            COMMON  STOCK  PURCHASE  WARRANT  AND ARE  SUBJECT TO CERTAIN  OTHER
            TRANSFER  RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE HOLDBACK  AGREEMENT  ANNEXED
            HERETO."

9.2 Notice of Proposed Transfers. Prior to any Transfer or attempted Transfer of
any Warrants, Warrant Shares, Exchange Shares or any shares of Restricted Common
Stock,  the Holder shall give ten (10) Business  Days,  prior written  notice (a
"Transfer  Notice") to the Company  and its  counsel of  Holder's  intention  to
effect such Transfer,  describing the manner and  circumstances  of the proposed
Transfer,  and obtain (i) in the case of a Transfer of this  Warrant or Exchange
Shares, the prior written consent of the Company, which may be given in the sole
discretion  of the  Company,  and (ii) in the case of a Transfer of any Warrants
Shares  or  Restricted  Common  Stock,  from  counsel  to  Holder  who  shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, an opinion that the proposed Transfer of
such Warrant,  Warrant Shares or Restricted Common Stock may be effected without
registration  under the Securities Act. After receipt of the Transfer Notice and
opinion,  the Company shall,  within five (5) Business Days thereof,  notify the
Holder as to whether such opinion is reasonably  satisfactory and, in the case a
Transfer of any Warrants,  whether the Company has consented thereto, and if so,
such holder  shall  thereupon  be entitled  to  Transfer  such  Warrants or such
Restricted  Common Stock, in accordance  with the terms of the Transfer  Notice,
the Warrant and the Holdback  Agreement.  Each certificate,  if any,  evidencing
such shares of Restricted  Common Stock issued upon such Transfer shall bear the
restrictive legends set forth in Section 9.1(b) and (c), as applicable,  and the
Warrant issued upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive legend set forth in
Section  9.1(d),  unless  in the  opinion  of such  counsel  such  legend is not
required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.

9.3 Termination of  Restrictions.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing  provisions of
Section 9, the restrictions  imposed by this Section upon the transferability of
the Warrants,  the Warrant Shares, the Exchange Shares and any Restricted Common
Stock and the legend  requirements  of  Section  9.1 shall  terminate  as to any
particular  Warrant or share of Warrant  Shares,  Exchange  Shares or Restricted
Common Stock (i) when and so long as such security  shall have been  effectively
registered  under the Securities Act and disposed of pursuant  thereto,  or (ii)
when  the  Company  shall  have  received  an  opinion  of  counsel   reasonably
satisfactory  to it and its counsel that such shares may be transferred  without
registration  thereof under the  Securities  Act, and (iii) when such  Warrants,
Warrant  Shares,  Exchange  Shares  and any  Restricted  Common  Stock no longer
contains any Transfer  restrictions  pursuant to this Warrant,  the Subscription
Agreement  and the  Holdback  Agreement.  Whenever the  restrictions  imposed by
Section 9 shall  terminate as to a this Warrant,  as hereinabove  provided,  the
Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company upon written request
of the  Holder,  at the  expense  of the  Company,  a new  Warrant  bearing  the
following legend in place of the restrictive legend set forth hereon:

            "THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE WITHIN WARRANT CONTAINED
            IN SECTION 9 HEREOF  TERMINATED ON , AND ARE OF NO FURTHER FORCE AND
            EFFECT."

All Warrants issued upon  registration of transfer,  division or combination of,
or in  substitution  for,  any Warrant or Warrants  entitled to bear such legend
shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon.  Whenever the restrictions imposed
by this Section shall  terminate as to any share of Restricted  Common Stock, as
hereinabove  provided,  the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the
Company,  at the Company's expense,  a new certificate  representing such Common
Stock not  bearing  the  restrictive  legends  set forth in  Section  9.1(b) and
Section 9.1(c), as the case may be.

9.4 Listing on  Securities  Exchange.  If the  Company  shall list any shares of
Common Stock on any securities exchange,  it will, at its expense, list thereon,
maintain  and,  when  necessary,  increase such listing of, all shares of Common
Stock  issued  or, to the extent  permissible  under the  applicable  securities
exchange  rules,  issuable upon the exercise or exchange of this Warrant so long
as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed during any such Exercise Period
or Exchange Period.

10.         SUPPLYING INFORMATION

      The Company shall  cooperate with Holder in supplying such  information as
may be  reasonably  necessary  for Holder to complete  and file any  information
reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission as a condition
to the  availability of an exemption from the Securities Act for the sale of any
Warrant or Restricted Common Stock.

11.         LOSS OR MUTILATION

      Upon   receipt  by  the  Company   from  Holder  of  evidence   reasonably
satisfactory  to it of the  ownership  of and the loss,  theft,  destruction  or
mutilation of this Warrant and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (it being
understood  that  the  written  agreement  of the  Holder  shall  be  sufficient
indemnity),  and in case of mutilation upon surrender and  cancellation  hereof,
the Company  will execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor
to Holder;  provided, in the case of mutilation,  no indemnity shall be required
if  this  Warrant  in  identifiable  form  is  surrendered  to the  Company  for
cancellation.

12.         OFFICE OF THE COMPANY

      As long as any of the  Warrants  remain  outstanding,  the  Company  shall
maintain an office or agency  (which may be the principal  executive  offices of
the Company) where the Warrants may be presented for exercise,  registration  of
transfer, division or combination as provided in this Warrant.

13.         LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

      No provision  hereof,  in the absence of  affirmative  action by Holder to
purchase  shares of Common  Stock,  and no  enumeration  herein of the rights or
privileges of Holder hereof,  shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the
purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder  of the Company,  whether
such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

14.         MISCELLANEOUS

14.1  Nonwaiver  and  Expenses.  No course of dealing or any delay or failure to
exercise any right  hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of
such right or otherwise  prejudice Holder's rights,  powers or remedies.  If the
Company fails to make, when due, any payments  provided for hereunder,  or fails
to comply with any other  provision of this  Warrant,  the Company  shall pay to
Holder such amounts as shall be  sufficient  to cover any  reasonable  costs and
expenses including,  but not limited to, reasonable  attorneys' fees,  including
those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due
pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights,  powers or remedies
hereunder.

14.2 Notice Generally. Except as may be otherwise provided herein, any notice or
other  communication  or delivery  required or permitted  hereunder  shall be in

pursuant to this Section 14.2.

14.3  Indemnification.  (a) The Company  agrees to indemnify  and hold  harmless
Holder  from  and  against  any  liabilities,   obligations,   losses,  damages,
penalties,  actions,  judgments, suits, claims, costs, attorneys' fees, expenses
and disbursements of any kind which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted
against  Holder in any manner  relating  to or arising out of any failure by the
Company to perform or observe  in any  material  respect  any of its  covenants,
agreements,  undertakings  or obligations  set forth in this Warrant;  provided,
however,  that the Company  will not be liable  hereunder to the extent that any
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
claims,  costs,  attorneys' fees, expenses or disbursements are found in a final
non-appealable  judgment  by a  court  to  have  resulted  from  Holder's  gross
negligence,  bad faith or willful misconduct in its capacity as a stockholder or
warrant holder of the Company.

             (a) The Holder  agrees to indemnify  and hold  harmless the Company
from and against  any  liabilities,  obligations,  losses,  damages,  penalties,
actions,   judgments,  suits,  claims,  costs,  attorneys'  fees,  expenses  and

14.4 Remedies.  The Company and Holder in addition to being entitled to exercise
all rights granted by law,  including  recovery of damages,  will be entitled to
specific  performance of its rights under Section 9 of this Warrant. The Company
and Holder agree that monetary  damages would not be adequate  compensation  for
any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the  provisions of Section 9 of
this  Warrant and hereby  agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific
performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

14.5  Successors  and Assigns.  Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.1 and 9,
this Warrant and the rights  evidenced  hereby shall inure to the benefit of and
be binding upon the  successors of the Company and the permitted  successors and
assigns of Holder.  The  provisions  of this  Warrant are intended to be for the
benefit of all Holders from time to time of this  Warrant  and,  with respect to
Section 9 hereof,  holders of Warrant Shares and Exchange  Shares,  and shall be
enforceable by any such Holder or holder of such Shares.

14.6      Amendment.  This Warrant and all other Warrants may be modified or
amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the
Company and the Holder.

14.7 Severability.  Wherever  possible,  each provision of this Warrant shall be
interpreted  in such manner as to be effective and valid under  applicable  law,
but if any  provision of this Warrant  shall be  prohibited  by or invalid under
applicable  law,  such  provision  shall be  ineffective  to the  extent of such
prohibition or invalidity,  without invalidating the remainder of such provision
or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

Gentlemen:

Stock"), and other securities that:

         1. The undersigned is the record and beneficial  owner of (i) shares of
Common Stock,  and (ii) Warrants (the  "Warrants") of the Company dated the date
hereof to purchase or otherwise  acquire  Common Stock,  both of which have been
issued to the undersigned by the Company for valid  consideration  pursuant to a
Subscription  Agreement dated the date hereof by and between the Company and the
undersigned.

         2. Unless otherwise defined herein,  capitalized terms used herein have
the meanings ascribed to them in the Warrants.

         3. Effective  upon the  date (the  "Effective  Date")  the  undersigned
exercises its exchange  right set forth in Section 2.2 of the Warrants  (without
any  further  action on behalf of the  Company or the  undersigned),  during the
period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the date which is eighteen
(18) months from the Effective Date (the "Termination Date"):

                  (a)   the undersigned  shall not sell,  transfer,  encumber,
                  pledge or otherwise  dispose of any Common Stock or Exchange
                  Shares; and

                   (b) neither the undersigned,  any of its affiliates,  nor any
                  person  acting  on its or their  behalf,  shall,  directly  or
                  indirectly, at any time prior to the Termination Date:

                         (i) enter into any put option, short position or engage
                        in any trading activities, hedging transactions or other
                        activities  with respect to the Common Stock or other of
                        the  Company's   securities  that  could  reasonably  be
                        expected  to  influence  the market  price of the Common
                        Stock or such other securities; or

                         (ii) sell the Common Stock or the Exchange  Shares in a
                        transaction  that is  effected at a price which is lower
                        than the  quoted  bid price of the  Common  Stock at the

Stock  and  Exchange  Shares  acquired  by  the  undersigned   pursuant  to  the

affiliate is not the surviving corporation) or otherwise.
