              stock split or other conversion of the number of shares of the
              Company into a different number of shares, however denominated.

3.     Exercise of Warrant.
       -------------------

       (a)    This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder by the surrender of
              this Warrant to the Company, with the Notice of Exercise annexed
              hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, at the
              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)
              during the Exercise Period and: (x) the delivery of payment to the
              Company, for the account of the Company, by cash, wire transfer of
              immediately available funds to a bank account specified by the
              Company, or by certified or bank cashier's check, of the Exercise
              Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise
              Form in lawful money of the United States of America or (y)
              pursuant to a net issuance election in accordance with Section
              3(b) hereof. The number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted to
              reflect any cash or stock dividend, stock split or other
              conversion of the number of shares of the Company into a different
              number of shares, however denominated as provided in Exhibit A
              attached.

       (b)    In lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to Section 3(a), the
              Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of
              any additional consideration, shares equal to the value of this
              Warrant or any portion hereof by the surrender of this Warrant or
              such portion to the Company, with the Net Issue Election Notice
              annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of the Company.
              Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of
              fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed
              using the following formula:

                                       2
<PAGE>

              X = Y (A-B)
                 --------
                    A

              where

              X =   the number of shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to
                    this Section 3(b).

              Y =   the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable
                    under this Warrant (as adjusted to the date of such
                    calculation).

             A =    the closing stock price of one share of the Company's common
                    stock as reported by the Nasdaq National Market the business
                    day immediately prior to the Exercise Date (as defined
                    below).

             B =    the Exercise Price in effect under this Warrant at the time
                    the net issue election is made pursuant to this Section
                    3(b).

                    This Warrant shall automatically by deemed to be exercised
                    in full pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3,
                    without any further action on behalf of the Holder,
                    immediately prior to the time this Warrant would otherwise
                    expire pursuant to the terms of this Warrant.

       (c)    This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately
              prior to the close of business on the date of its surrender for
              exercise as provided above (the "Exercise Date"), and the person
              entitled to receive the shares of common stock issuable upon such
              exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record
              of such shares as of the close of business on such date. As
              promptly as practicable on or after such date and in any event
              within three (3) business days thereafter, the Company at its
              expense shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled
              to receive the same a certificate or certificates for the number
              of shares issuable upon such exercise. In the event that this
              Warrant is exercised in part, the Company at its expense will
              execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor exercisable for
              the number of shares for which this Warrant may then be exercised

4.     No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of 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 action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect
       the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment. Without
       limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) will not
       increase the par value of any shares of stock receivable on the exercise
       of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor on such exercise, and
       (b) will take all

                                       3
<PAGE>

       such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company
       may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
       stock on the exercise of this Warrant. Upon the request of a Holder at
       any time during the period that this Warrant is outstanding, the Company
       will acknowledge in writing, in form reasonably satisfactory to such
       Holder, the continued validity of this Warrant and the Company's
       obligations hereunder.

5.     Payment Of Taxes. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall
       ----------------
       be made without charge to the Holder for any stock transfer or other
       issuance tax in respect thereto; provided, however, that the Holder shall
       be responsible for the payment of any and all taxes which may be payable
       in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any
       certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the then
       Holder as reflected upon the books of the Company.

6.     Divisibility Of Warrant. This Warrant may be divided into warrants
       -----------------------
       representing one Warrant Share or multiples thereof, upon surrender at
       the principal office of the Company on any business day, without charge
       to any Holder, except as provided below. Upon any such division, and if
       permitted by Section 10, the Warrants may be transferred of record to a
       name other than that of the Holder of record; provided, however, that the
       Holder shall be responsible for payment of any and all transfer taxes
       with respect thereto.

7.     No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing
       -----------------------------
       fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In
       lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be
       entitled, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the Exercise
       Price multiplied by such fraction.

8.     Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to
       ----------------------
       the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
       and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an
       indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
       Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of
       this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in
       lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

9.     Rights of Stockholders. The Holder of this Warrant shall not be entitled
       ----------------------
       to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of common stock nor
       shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder,
       as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right
       to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to
       stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to
       any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of
       stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, or change of stock
       to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to
       receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription
       rights or otherwise util the Warrant shall have been exercised as
       provided herein.

10.    Transfer of Warrant.
       -------------------

                                       4
<PAGE>

       (a)    Warrant Register. The Company will maintain a register (the
              ----------------
              "Warrant Register") containing the names and addresses of the
              Holders or Holders. Any Holder of this Warrant or any portion
              thereof may change his address as shown on the Warrant Register by
              written notice to the Company requesting such change. Any notice
              or written communication required or permitted to be given to the
              Holder may be delivered or given by mail to such Holder as shown
              on the Warrant Register and at the address shown on the Warrant
              Register. Until this Warrant is transferred on the Warrant
              Register of the Company, the Company may treat the Holder as shown
              on the Warrant Register as the absolute owner of this Warrant for
              all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

       (b)    Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder,
              -------------
              appoint an agent for the purpose of maintaining the Warrant
              Register referred to in Section 10(a) above, issuing the common
              stock, exchanging this Warrant, replacing this Warrant, or any or
              all of the foregoing. Thereafter, any such registration, issuance,
              exchange, or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at the
              office of such agent.

       (c)    Transferability and Non-negotiability of Warrant. This Warrant may
              ------------------------------------------------
              not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part, without
              compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws
              by the transferor and the transferee (including the delivery of
              investment representation letters and legal opinions reasonably
              satisfactory to the Company, if such are requested by the
              Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no investment
              representation letter or opinion of counsel shall be required for
              any transfer of this Warrant (or any portion thereof) or any
              shares of common stock issued upon exercise hereof (i) in
              compliance with Rule 144 or Rule 144A of the Act, or (ii) by gift,
              will or intestate succession by the Holder to his or her spouse or
              lineal descendants or ancestors or any trust for any of the
              foregoing, provided that in each of the foregoing cases the
              transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this
              Section 10(c). In addition, if the holder of the Warrant (or any
              portion thereof) or any common stock issued upon exercise hereof
              delivers to the Company an unqualified opinion of counsel that no
              subsequent transfer of such Warrant or common stock shall require
              registration under the Act, the Company shall, upon such
              contemplated transfer, promptly deliver new documents/certificates
              for such Warrant or common stock that do not bear the legend set
              forth in Section 10(e)(ii) below. Subject to the provisions of
              this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act of
              1933, as amended (the "Act"), title to this Warrant may be
              transferred by endorsement (by the Holder executing the Assignment
              Form annexed hereto) and delivery in the same manner as a
              negotiable instrument transferable by endorsement and delivery.

       (d)    Exchange of Warrant Upon a Transfer. On surrender of this Warrant
              -----------------------------------
              for exchange, properly endorsed on the Assignment Form and subject
              to the

                                       5
<PAGE>

              provisions of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Act
              and with the limitations on assignments and transfers and
              contained in this Section 10, the Company at its expense shall
              issue to or on the order of the Holder a new warrant or warrants
              of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder (on
              payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may
              direct, for the number of shares issuable upon exercise hereof.

       (e)    Compliance with Securities Laws.
              -------------------------------

              (i)   The initial Holder of this Warrant represents and warrants
                    to the Company that it is an accredited investor under the
                    Act. The initial Holder represents and warrants to the
                    Company that it has all of the information necessary for it
                    to evaluate an investment in the Company's securities.

              (ii)  The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof,
                    acknowledges that this Warrant and the shares of common
                    stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired
                    solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee for
                    any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder
                    will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or
                    any shares of common stock to be issued upon exercise hereof
                    except under circumstances that will not result in a
                    violation of the Act or any applicable state securities
                    laws.

              (iii) This Warrant and all shares of common stock issued upon
                    exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend
                    in substantially the following form (in addition to any
                    legend required by state securities laws):

                    "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
                    UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. SUCH SECURITIES AND ANY
                    SECURITIES OR SHARES ISSUED HEREUNDER MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
                    TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN
                    EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SAID ACT. COPIES OF THE AGREEMENT,
                    COVERING THE PURCHASE OF THESE SECURITIES AND RESTRICTING
                    THEIR TRANSFER OR SALE MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN
                    REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD HEREOF TO THE SECRETARY
                    OF THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES."

              (iv)  The Company agrees to remove promptly, upon the request of
                    the holder of this Warrant and Securities issuable upon
                    exercise of the Warrant, the legend set forth in Section
                    10(e)(iii) above from the documents/certificates for such

<PAGE>

                    with this Agreement Rules 144 and 145 or upon resale in
                    accordance with an effective registration statement.

11.    Reservation and Listing of Shares. All Warrant Shares which are issued
       ---------------------------------
       upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall, upon
       issuance and payment of the Exercise Price, be validly issued, fully paid
       and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests,
       charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof other
       than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with
       such issuance. During the period within which this Warrant may be
       exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved,
       and keep available free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of
       shares of Warrant Shares to provide for the exercise of this Warrant, and
       shall at its expense procure such listing thereof (subject to official
       notice of issuance) as then may be required on all stock exchanges on
       which the Common Stock is then listed, if any. The Company from time to
       time shall take all such action as may be required to assure that the par
       value per share of the Warrant Shares is equal to or less than the
       Exercise Price. The Company agrees that its issuance of this Warrant
       shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the
       duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary
       certificates for shares of common stock upon the exercise of this
       Warrant.

12.    Registration Rights; Company Registration.
       -----------------------------------------

       (a)    If the Company shall determine to register any of its securities
              for its own account, other than a registration relating solely to
              employee benefit plans, or a registration relating solely to a
              Rule 145 transaction, or a registration on any registration form
              that does not permit secondary sales, the Company will:

              (i)   promptly give to Holder written notice thereof; and

              (ii)  use its best efforts to include in such registration (and
                    any related qualification under blue sky laws or other
                    compliance), except as set forth in Section 12(b) below, and
                    in any underwriting involved therein, all or any part (in
                    minimum increments of 100,000 Shares) of the Warrant Shares
                    specified in a written request or requests, made by Holder
                    and received by the Company within twenty (20) days after
                    the written notice from the Company described in clause (i)
                    above is mailed or delivered by the Company. Such written
                    request may specify all or a part of Holder's Warrant
                    Shares.

       (b)    Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives
              ------------
              notice is for a registered public offering involving an
              underwriting, the Company shall so advise Holder as a part of the
              written notice given pursuant to Section 12(a)(i). In such event,
              the right of Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 12
              shall be conditioned upon Holder's participation in such
              underwriting and the inclusion of Holder's Warrant Shares in the

                                       7
<PAGE>

              underwriting to the extent provided herein. A Holder proposing to
              distribute its securities through such underwriting shall
              (together with the Company and the other holders of securities of
              the Company with registration rights to participate therein
              distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter
              into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the
              representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the
              Company. If any person does not agree to the terms of any such
              underwriting, he shall be excluded therefrom by written notice
              from the Company or the underwriter. Any Warrant Shares or other
              securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be
              withdrawn from such registration.

              Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12, if the
              representative of the underwriters advises the Company, in good
              faith, in writing, that marketing factors require a limitation on
              the number of shares to be underwritten, (i) the representative
              may (subject to the limitations set forth below) exclude all
              Warrant Shares from, or limit the number of Warrant Shares to be
              included in the registration and underwriting, or (ii) the Company
              may limit, to the extent so advised by the underwriters, the
              amount of securities to be included in the registration by the
              Company's stockholders (including the Holder), to be apportioned
              pro rata among the holders of registrable securities, including
              Warrant Shares, according to the total amount of securities
              entitled to be included therein owned by each holder of
              registrable securities, including Warrant Shares, and subject in
              all respects to the rights of holders of registrable securities
              other than Holder affecting the ability of such representative or
              the Company, as applicable, to limit the number of registrable
              securities of such holder or holders to be included in such
              registration and underwriting.

              If registrable securities are withdrawn from the registration as a
              result of the holder failing to agree to the terms of any such
              underwriting and the number of registrable securities to be
              included in such registration was previously reduced as a result
              of marketing factors, the Company shall then offer to all persons
              who have retained the right to include registrable securities in
              the registration the right to include additional securities in the
              registration in an aggregate amount equal to the number of shares
              so withdrawn, apportioned pro rata among the holders of
              registrable securities, including Warrant Shares, according to the
              total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned
              by each holder of registrable securities, including Warrant
              Shares, and subject in all respects to the rights of holders of
              registrable securities other than Holder affecting the ability of
              such representative or the Company, as applicable, to limit the
              number of registrable securities of such holder or holders to be
              included in such registration and underwriting.

13.    Registration on Form S-3.
       ------------------------

                                       8
<PAGE>

       (a)    Provided the Company is qualified for the use of Form S-3, in
              addition to the rights contained in the foregoing provisions of
              Section 12, Holder shall have the right to request one or more
              registrations on Form S-3 (such requests shall be in writing and
              shall state the number of shares of Warrant Shares to be disposed
              of and the intended methods of disposition of such shares by
              Holder), provided, however, that the Company shall not be
              obligated to effect any such registration if (i) Holder proposes
              to sell Warrant Shares on Form S-3 at an aggregate price to the
              public of less than $500,000, or (ii) in the event the Company
              shall furnish the certification described in paragraph 13(d)(ii)
              (but subject to the limitations set forth therein), or (iii) the
              Company has, within the six (6) month period preceding the date of
              such request already effected on registration on Form S-3 for
              Holder pursuant to this Section 13.

       (b)    If a request complying with the requirements of Section 13(a)
              hereof is delivered to the Company, the provisions of Section
              12(a)(i) and (ii) and Section 13(c) hereof shall apply to such
              registration. If the registration is for an underwritten offering,
              the provisions of Sections 12(b) hereof shall apply to such
              registration.

       (c)    The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any
              action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section
              13:

              (i)   In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be
                    required to execute a general consent to service of process
                    in effecting such registration, qualification, or
                    compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service
                    in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the
                    Act;

              (ii)  During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days
                    prior to the Company's good faith estimate of the date of
                    filing of, and ending on a date one hundred eighty (180)
                    days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated
                    registration; provided that the Company is actively
                    employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such
                    registration statement to become effective.

       (d)    Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 13, the
              Company shall file a registration statement covering the Warrant
              Shares so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after
              receipt of the request of Holder; provided, however, that if (i)
              in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the
              Company, such registration would be seriously detrimental to the
              Company and the Board of Directors of the Company concludes, as a
              result, that it is essential to defer the filing of such
              registration statement at such time, and (ii) the Company shall
              furnish to Holder a certificate signed by the President of the
              Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of
              Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the
              Company for such registration

                                       9
<PAGE>

              statement to be filed in the near future and that it is,
              therefore, essential to defer the filing of such registration
              statement, then the Company shall have the right to defer such
              filing for the period during which such disclosure would be
              seriously detrimental, provided that (except as provided in clause
              (c) above) the Company may not defer the filing for a period of
              more than one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt of the
              request of Holder, and, provided further, that the Company shall
              not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any
              twelve (12) month period.

14.    Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses (as defined herein)
       ------------------------
       incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance
       pursuant to Sections 12 and 13 hereof and reasonable fees of one counsel
       for Holder shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses (as
       defined herein) relating to securities so registered shall be borne by
       the holders of such securities pro rata on the basis of the number of
       shares of securities so registered on their behalf. "Registration
       Expenses" shall mean all expenses incurred in effecting any registration
       pursuant to this Warrant, including, without limitation, all

       disbursements of one special counsel for the selling stockholders, blue
       sky fees and expenses, accounting fees and expenses of any regular or
       special audits incident to or required by any such registration, but
       shall not include Selling Expenses and fees and disbursements of
       additional counsel for the stockholders. Registration Expenses do not
       include the compensation of regular employees of the Company, which shall
       be paid in any event by the Company. "Selling Expenses" shall mean all
       underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of
       Warrant Shares and fees and disbursements of counsel for any Holder
       (other than the fees and disbursements of counsel included in
       Registration Expenses).

15.    Amendments. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived,
       ----------
       discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the
       party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or
       termination is sought.

16.    Miscellaneous.
       -------------

       (a)    This Warrant shall be governed by the laws of the State of Nevada
              as applied to agreements entered into in the State of Nevada by

       (b)    In the event of a dispute with regard to the interpretation of
              this Warrant, the prevailing party may collect the cost of

              be incurred in the enforcement of the prevailing party's rights
              hereunder.

       (c)    The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to
              a Holder by the Company under Sections 13 and 14 may be
              transferred or assigned by Holder only to a transferee or assignee
              of not less than 100,000 Warrant Shares, provided that the Company
              is given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time
              after such transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of
              the transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with
              respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or
              assigned, and, provided further, that the transferee or assignee
              of such rights assumes the obligations of such Holder under this
              Warrant.

       (d)    This Warrant shall be exercisable as provided for herein, except
              that in the event that the expiration date of this Warrant shall

                                   EXHIBIT A

                                  ADJUSTMENTS

The Exercise Price at which Warrant Shares may be purchased and the number of
Warrant Shares to be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to
change or adjustment as follows:

(e)  General. If the Company (i) pays a dividend in shares of Common Stock or
     makes a distribution in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides its
     outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of
     Common Stock, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
     smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) issues by reclassification
     of its shares of Common Stock other securities of the Company (including
     any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in
     which the Company is the surviving corporation), the number of Warrant
     Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted so that
     the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant
     Shares or other securities of the Company that the Holder would have owned
     or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events
     described above, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the
     happening of such event or any record date with respect thereto. An
     adjustment made pursuant to this Exhibit A shall become effective
     immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the
     record date, if any, for such event.

(f)  Adjustment For Capital Reorganization. If at any time there shall be a
     capital reorganization of the Company or a merger or consolidation of the
     Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or
     substantially all of the Company's properties and assets, then, as part of
     such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale, lawful provision shall
     be made so that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to
     receive on exercise of this Warrant during the period specified in this
     Warrant and on payment of the Exercise Price then in effect, the number of
     shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of the
     successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation, to which
     a holder of the Common Stock deliverable on exercise of this Warrant would
     have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation,
     or sale if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before that capital
     reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale.  In any such case,
     appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions
     of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of
     this Warrant after the reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale to
     the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including adjustment of the
     number of shares purchasable on exercise of this Warrant) shall be
     applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to
     any shares or other securities or property deliverable after that event on
     exercise of this Warrant.  Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger
     or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in
     this paragraph (b), this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect
     and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other
     securities property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the
     consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the
     effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may
     be, and shall

                                       12
<PAGE>

              binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities,
              including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring
              all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the
              Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed
              the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 7.

       (g)    Certificate Of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment
              or readjustment pursuant to this Exhibit A, the Company at its
              expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in
              accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder a
              certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and
              showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or
              readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written
              request, at any time, of any Holder, furnish or cause to be
              furnished to such Holder, a like certificate setting forth: (i)
              such adjustments and readjustments; (ii) the Exercise Price at the
              time in effect; and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and
              the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be
              received upon the exercise of the Warrant.

       (h)    Notices Of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the Company
              of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
              purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to
              receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend that is the same
              as cash dividends paid in previous quarters) or other
              distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise
              acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities
              or property, or to receive any other right, or any capital
              reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or
              recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company, or any
              voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of
              the Company, then and in each such event the Company will mail or
              cause to be mailed to the holder of this Warrant a notice
              specifying (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken
              for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and
              stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or
              right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend,
              distribution or right, and (ii) the date on which any such
              reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer,
              consolidation, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take
              place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the
              holders of record of any class of securities shall be entitled to
              exchange their shares of securities for securities or other
              property deliverable on such reorganization, reclassification,
              recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, dissolution,
              liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed to the
              Holder at the same time it is sent to stockholders.
