Fronteer Development assumed all of Fronteer Capital's rights, duties and
obligations under the Fronteer Loan Agreement. On October 30, 1998, the Issuer
made its first draw in the amount of $400,000 against the Fronteer Loan, as a
result, as additional consideration for Fronteer Development's making the loan
to Issuer, Issuer issued to Fronteer Development an additional warrant entitling
Fronteer Development to purchase 5,000,000 shares of the Common Stock of the
Issuer at an exercise price of $0.25 per share. The warrants issued may be
exercised at any time until October 30, 2008, at an exercise price of $0.25 per
share and may be exercised in full or in minimum amounts of at least $250,000.
Pursuant to the terms of the Fronteer Loan Agreement, the Issuer has
increased the number of members of its board of directors to nine and appointed
five members selected by Fronteer Capital and/or Heng Fung Finance to the
Issuer's board of directors. In August 1998, one of those newly appointed
members resigned from the board of directors. Also pursuant to the terms of the
Fronteer Loan Agreement, each current member of the board of directors of the
Issuer, other than any such member appointed by Fronteer Capital or Heng Fung
Finance, and each management person or key employee of the Issuer, delivered to
Fronteer Development his or her letter of resignation, which letters of
resignation are being held in escrow by Fronteer Development, subject to all the
terms and conditions of the Fronteer Development Loan Agreement. If the Issuer
shall fail to pay when due, after the expiration of all cure periods, any
installment of principal or interest due under the Fronteer Development Loan
Agreement and/or violates any terms of the Fronteer Development Loan Agreement,
the Issuer will be in default. If the Issuer defaults on the Fronteer Loan,
Fronteer Development may:

<PAGE>
(i) demand the resignation of any or all members of the board of
directors of the Issuer, other than those members appointed by Fronteer
Development and/or Heng Fung Finance, and if such members refuse to resign,
deliver to the Issuer the letters of resignation held by Fronteer
Development in escrow, and thereafter Fronteer Development shall have the
right to appoint such resigned or terminated member's replacement to the
board of directors of the Issuer; and
(ii) demand the resignations of any or all of the management personnel
of the Issuer and/or any and all of the key employees of the Issuer, and if
such management personnel or key employees refuse to resign, deliver to the
Issuer the letters of resignation held by Fronteer Development in escrow;
and
(iii) convert any or all of the amounts due under any of the Notes
into Common Stock of the Issuer at an exercise price of $0.05 per share.
The Issuer has agreed to pay American Fronteer a finder's fee equal to 9%
of the amount of the Fronteer Loan drawn upon by the Issuer.
The terms of the transaction are more fully set forth in the Fronteer Loan
Agreement attached to the original Schedule 13D as Exhibit 2 and incorporated by
reference to this Amendment Number 1 to Schedule 13D and the Assignment,
Assumption and Consent Agreement attached to this Schedule 13D as Exhibit 5.
Michael I. Ruxin, M.D., the Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer, has
executed a Personal Guaranty for the Fronteer Loan, which is attached to the
original Schedule 13D as Exhibit 3 and incorporated by reference to this
Amendment Number 1 to Schedule 13D.
Effective May 7, 1998, Heng Fung Finance Company Limited, a wholly owned
indirect subsidiary of Heng Fung Holdings entered into a loan agreement with the
Issuer whereby Heng Fung agreed to loan ("Heng Fung Loan") at 12% per annum,
payable at the end of each month up to $1,500,000 to the Issuer ("Heng Fung Loan
Agreement"). The Heng Fung Loan matures on April 15, 1999. Pursuant to the Heng
Fung Loan Agreement, Heng Fung Finance was issued warrants to purchase 6,000,000
shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer. The warrants to purchase 6,000,000
shares may be exercised at any time until April 13, 2008, at an exercise price
of $0.25 per share and may be exercised in full or in minimum amounts of at
least $250,000. On October 7, 1998, Heng Fung Finance sold for $1,100,000 to
Fronteer Development a portion of the Heng Fung Loan equal to the right to
payment of $1,000,000 in principal amount, together with interest accruing
thereon and a portion of the warrant to purchase 6,000,000 shares of the Common
Stock of the Issuer which is equal to a warrant to purchase 4,000,000 shares of
the Common Stock of the Issuer. The terms of this transaction are more fully set
forth in the Loan and Warrant Purchase and Sale Agreement attached to this
Schedule 13D as Exhibit 6.

direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the
10,138,300 shares.

Exhibit 7
Void After 3:30 P.M., Mountain Time, on October 30, 2008
WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON SHARES
GLOBAL MED TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
This is to Certify That, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, FRONTEER DEVELOPMENT FINANCE,
INC., 1700 Lincoln Street, 32nd Floor, Denver, Colorado 80203 ("Holder"), is
entitled to purchase, subject to the provisions of this Warrant, from GLOBAL MED
TECHNOLOGIES, INC. ("Company"), a Colorado corporation, at any time until 3:30
P.M., Mountain Time, on October 30, 2008 ("Expiration Date"), 5,000,000 Common
Shares of the Company at a purchase price of $0.25 per common share during the
period this Warrant is exercisable. The number of Common Shares to be received
upon the exercise of this Warrant and the price to be paid for a Common Share
may be adjusted from time to time as hereinafter set forth. The purchase price
of a Common Share in effect at any time and as adjusted from time to time is
hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Exercise Price." This Warrant is or
may be one of a series of warrants identical in form issued by the Company to
purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 Common Shares of the Company and the term
"Warrants" as used herein means all such Warrants (including this Warrant). The
Common Shares, as adjusted from time to time, underlying the Warrants are
hereinafter sometimes referred to as "Warrant Shares" and include all Common
Shares that have been issued upon the exercise of the Warrants and all unissued
Common Shares underlying the Warrants.
(a) Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in
minimum amounts which at the time of exercise would require Holder to deliver to
the Company cash or value of at least $250,000 at any time or from time to time
until the Expiration Date or if the Expiration Date is a day on which banking
institutions are authorized by law to close, then on the next succeeding day
which shall not be such a day, by presentation and surrender hereof to the
Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, with the Purchase
Form annexed hereto duly executed and accompanied by payment of the Exercise
Price for the number of shares specified in such Form, together with all federal
and state taxes applicable upon such exercise. The Company agrees not to merge,
reorganize or take any action that would terminate this Warrant unless
provisions are made as part of such merger, reorganization or other action which
would provide the holders of this Warrant with an equivalent of this Warrant as
specified in Section (i) hereof. The Company agrees to provide notice to the
Holder that any tender offer is being made for the Company's Common Shares no
later than three business days after the day the Company becomes aware that any
tender offer is being made for the outstanding Common Shares of the Company. If
this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon surrender
of this Warrant for cancellation, execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing
the right of the Holder to purchase the balance of the Common Shares purchasable
hereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant at the office of the
Company or at the office of the Company's stock transfer agent, in proper form
for exercise and accompanied by the Purchase Form and the Exercise Price, the
Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Shares issuable
upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company
shall then be closed or that certificates representing such Common Shares shall
not then be actually delivered to the Holder.
(b) Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that at all times
there shall be reserved for issuance and/or delivery upon exercise of this
Warrant such number of Common Shares as shall be required for issuance or
delivery upon exercise of this Warrant.
(c) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. With
respect to any fraction of a Common Share called for upon any exercise hereof,
the Company shall, upon receipt by the Company or the Company's stock transfer
agent of the Exercise Price on such fractional share, pay to the Holder an
amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the current market value of
such fractional share, determined as follows:
<PAGE>
(1) If the Common Shares are listed on a national securities exchange
or a foreign exchange, are admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such
an exchange, or are listed for trading on a trading system of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") such as The Nasdaq
SmallCap Market ("SCM") or the Nasdaq National Market ("NNM") or the OTC
Bulletin Board, then the current value shall be the last reported sale
price of the Common Shares on such an exchange or system on the last
business day prior to the date of exercise of this Warrant or if no such
sale is made on such day, the average of the closing bid prices for the
Common Shares for such day on such exchange or such system shall be used;
or
(2) If the Common Shares are not so listed on such exchange or system
or admitted to unlisted trading privileges, the current value shall be the
average of the last reported bid prices reported by the National Quotation
Bureau, Inc. on the last business day prior to the date of the exercise of
this Warrant; or
(3) If the Common Shares are not so listed or admitted to unlisted
trading privileges and if bid prices are not so reported, the current value
shall be an amount, not less than book value, determined in such reasonable
manner as may be prescribed by the board of directors of the Company.
(d) Exchange, Assignment or Loss of Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable,
without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon presentation and surrender
hereof to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, for
other Warrants of different denominations entitling the Holder thereof to
purchase (under the same terms and conditions as provided by this Warrant) in
the aggregate the same number of Common Shares purchasable hereunder. This
Warrant may not be sold, transferred, assigned, or hypothecated except in
compliance with federal and state securities laws. Any transfer or assignment
shall be made by surrender of this Warrant to the Company or at the office of
its stock transfer agent, if any, with the Assignment Form annexed hereto duly
executed and with funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax; whereupon the
Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of
the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall
promptly be canceled. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other
Warrants which carry the same rights upon presentation hereof at the office of
the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together with
a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants
are to be issued and signed by the Holder hereof. The term "Warrant" as used
herein includes any warrants issued in substitution for or replacement of this
Warrant, or into which this Warrant may be divided or exchanged. Upon receipt by
the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of
reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and upon surrender and cancellation of
this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant
of like tenor and date. Subject to such right of indemnification, any such new
Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute an additional contractual
obligation on the part of the Company, whether or not this Warrant so lost,
stolen, destroyed, or mutilated shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
(e) Rights of the Holder. The Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be
entitled to any rights of a shareholder in the Company, either at law or equity,
and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in the Warrant and
are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein.
(f) Adjustment Provisions.
(1) Adjustments of the Exercise Price.
(A) If the Company subdivides its outstanding Common Shares into
a greater number of Common Shares, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately
reduced. Conversely, if the Company combines its outstanding Common
Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares, the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionally
increased. In case of a subdivision or combination, the adjustment of
the Exercise Price shall be made as of the effective date of the
applicable event. A distribution on Common Shares, including a
distribution of Convertible Securities, to shareholders of the Company
on a pro rata basis shall be considered a subdivision of Common Shares
for the purposes of this subsection (1)(A) of this Section, except
that the adjustment will be made as of the record date for such
distribution and any such distribution of Convertible Securities shall
be deemed to be a distribution of the Common Shares underlying such
Convertible Securities.
<PAGE>
(B) If the Company shall at any time distribute or cause to be
distributed to its shareholders, on a pro rata basis, cash, assets, or
securities of any entity other than the Company, then the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such distribution shall
automatically be reduced by an amount determined by dividing (x) the
amount (if cash) or the value (if assets or securities) of the
holders' of Warrants (as such term is defined in the first paragraph
hereof) pro rata share of such distribution determined assuming that
all holders of Warrants had exercised their Warrants on the day prior
to such distribution, by (y) the number of Common Shares issuable upon
the exercise of Warrants (as such term is defined in the first
paragraph hereof) by the holders thereof on the day prior to such
distribution.
(3) No Adjustment for Small Amounts. Anything in this Section (f) to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to give
effect to any adjustment in the Exercise Price unless and until the net
effect of one or more adjustments, determined as above provided, shall have
required a change of the Exercise Price by at least one cent, but when the
cumulative net effect of more than one adjustment so determined shall be to
change the actual Exercise Price by at least one cent, such change in the
Exercise Price shall thereupon be given effect.
(4) Number of Shares Adjusted. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise
Price, the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter (until another such
adjustment) be entitled to purchase, at the new Exercise Price, the number
of Common Shares, calculated to the nearest full share, obtained by
multiplying the number of Common Shares initially issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant by the Exercise Price specified in the first paragraph hereof
and dividing the product so obtained by the new Exercise Price.
(5) Definitions.
(A) Whenever reference is made in this Section (f) to the
distribution of Common Shares, the term "Common Shares" shall mean the
Common Shares of the Company authorized as of the date hereof and any
other class of stock ranking on a parity with such Common Shares.
However, subject to the provisions of Section (i) hereof, Common
Shares issuable upon exercise hereof shall include only Common Shares
of the class designated as Common Shares of the Company as of the date
hereof.
(B) Whenever reference is made in this Section (f) to the
distribution of Convertible Securities, the term "Convertible
Securities" shall mean options or warrants or rights for the purchase
of Common Shares of the Company or for the purchase of any stock or
other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares of
the Company.
<PAGE>
(6) AntiDilution Provisions.
(A) Adjustments of Exercise Price. If the Company should at any
time or from time to time hereafter issue or sell any of its Common
Shares without consideration or for a consideration per share less
than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of
such issue or sale, then forthwith upon such issue or sale, the
Exercise Price shall be automatically adjusted to a price (computed to
the nearest cent) determined by dividing (i) the sum of (x) the number
of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale
multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
issue or sale, and (y) the consideration, if any, received by the
Company upon such issue or sale, by (ii) the total number of Common
Shares outstanding immediately after such issue or sale. For purposes
of this Section (6)(A), the following provisions (i) and (ii) shall
also be applicable:
(i) Rights, Options, or Warrants. In case at any time
hereafter the Company shall in any manner grant any right to
subscribe for or to purchase, or any option or warrant for the
purchase of Common Shares or for the purchase of any stock or
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares
(such convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being
hereinafter referred to as the "Underlying Convertible
Securities") and if the minimum price per share for which Common
Shares are issuable, pursuant to such rights, options, warrants
or upon conversion or exchange of such Underlying Convertible
Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any,
received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the
granting of such rights, options, or warrants plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the
Company upon the exercise of such rights, options, or warrants
under the terms of such rights, options, or warrants at the time
of making such computation, plus, in the case of such Underlying
Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of
additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or
exchange thereof under the terms of such Underlying Convertible
Securities at the time of making such computation, by (ii) the
total maximum number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to such
rights, options, or warrants or upon the conversion or exchange
of the total maximum amount of such Underlying Convertible
Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights, options, or
warrants under the terms of such rights, options, warrants or
Underlying Convertible Securities at the time of making such
computation) shall be less than the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the time of the granting of such rights or
options, then the total maximum number of Common Shares issuable
pursuant to such rights, options, warrants or upon conversion or
exchange of the total maximum amount of such Underlying
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights,
options, or warrants under the terms of such rights, options,
warrants or Underlying Convertible Securities at the time of
making such computation shall (as of the date of granting of such
rights, options, or warrants) be deemed to be outstanding and to
have been issued for said price per share as so determined;
provided, that no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall
be made upon the actual issue of Common Shares so deemed to have
been issued unless the price per share received by the Company
upon the actual issuance of Common Shares so deemed to be issued
differs from the price per share which was last used to adjust
the Exercise Price or unless by the terms of such rights, options
<PAGE>
or warrants or Underlying Convertible Securities the price per
share which the Company will receive upon any such issuance of
Common Shares differs from the price per share which was last
used to adjust the Exercise Price, in either of which events the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted upon the occurrence of either
such event to reflect the new price per share of Common Stock;
and further provided, that, upon the expiration of such rights
(including rights to convert or exchange), options or warrants
(a) the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to have been
issued and outstanding by reason of the fact that they were
issuable pursuant to such rights, options, or warrants (including
rights to convert or exchange) that were not exercised, shall no
longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding, and (b) the
Exercise Price shall forthwith be adjusted to the price which
would have prevailed had all adjustments been made on the basis
of the issue only of the Common Shares actually issued upon the
exercise of such rights, options, or warrants or upon conversion
or exchange of such Underlying Convertible Securities. Such
adjustments upon expiration shall have no effect on Warrants
exercised prior to such expiration.
(ii) Convertible Securities. If the Company shall in any
manner issue or sell any Convertible Securities other than the
rights, options, or warrants described in Section 6(A)(i) hereof
and if the minimum price per share for which Common Shares are
issuable upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount received
or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue or
sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate
amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the
Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof under the terms
of such Convertible Securities at the time of making such
computation, by (ii) the total maximum number of Common Shares
issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible
Securities under the terms of such Convertible Securities at the
time of making such computation) shall be less than the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or
sale, then the total maximum number of Common Shares issuable
upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities at
the time of making such computation shall (as of the date of the
issue or sale of such Convertible Securities) be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued for said price per share as
so determined; provided, that no further adjustment of the
Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issue of Common
Shares so deemed to have been issued unless the price per share
received by the Company upon the actual issuance of Common Shares
so deemed to be issued differs from the price per share which was
last used to adjust the Exercise Price or unless by the terms of
such Convertible Securities the price per share which the Company
will receive upon any such issuance of Common Shares differs from
the price per share which was last used to adjust the Exercise
Price, in either of which events the Exercise Price shall be
adjusted upon the occurrence of either such event to reflect the
new price per share of Common Shares; and, further provided that
if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made
upon exercise of any right to subscribe for or to purchase or any
option to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which an
adjustment of the Exercise Price has been or is to be made
pursuant to the provisions of Section 6(A)(i) then no further
adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such
issue or sale unless the price per share received by the Company
upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities
when actually issued differs from the price per share which was
last used to adjust the Exercise Price or unless by the terms of
such Convertible Securities the price per share which the Company
will receive upon any such issuance of Common Shares upon
<PAGE>
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities differs
from the price per share which was last used to adjust the
Exercise Price, in either of which events the Exercise Price
shall be adjusted upon the occurrence of either of such events to
reflect the new price per share of Common Shares; and, further
provided, that, upon the termination of the right to convert or
to exchange such Convertible Securities for Common Shares, (a)
the number of Common Shares deemed to have been issued and
outstanding by reason of the fact that they were issuable upon
conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities, which
were not so converted or exchanged, shall no longer be deemed to
be issued and outstanding, and (b) the Exercise Price shall
forthwith be adjusted to the price which would have prevailed had
all adjustments been made on the basis of the issue only of the
number of Common Shares actually issued upon conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities. Such adjustments upon
expiration shall have no effect on Warrants exercised prior to
such expiration.
(B) Determination of Issue Price. In case any Common Shares or
Convertible Securities shall be issued for cash, the consideration
received therefor, which shall be the gross sales price for such
security without deducting therefrom any commission or other expenses
paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting of, or otherwise
in connection with, the issuance thereof, shall be deemed to be the
amount received by the Company therefor. In case any Common Shares or
Convertible Securities shall be issued for a consideration part or all
of which shall be other than cash, then, for the purpose of this
Section (6), the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the
fair value of such consideration, irrespective of accounting
treatment, and such Common Shares or Convertible Securities shall be
deemed to have been issued for an amount of cash equal to the value so
determined by the Board of Directors. The reclassification of
securities other than Common Shares into securities including Common
Shares shall be deemed to involve the issuance for a consideration
other than cash of such Common Shares immediately prior to the close
of business on the date fixed for the determination of security
holders entitled to receive such Common Shares. In case any Common
Shares or Convertible Securities shall be issued together with other
stock or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration,
the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine what part of the
consideration so received is to be deemed to be consideration for the
issue of such Common Shares or Convertible Securities.
(C) Determination of Date of Issue. In case the Company shall
take a record of the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of
entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable
in Common Shares or in Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for
or purchase Common Shares or Convertible Securities, then such record
date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the Common
Shares deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such
dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the
granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may
be.
(D) Treasury Shares. For the purpose of this Section (f), Common
Shares at any relevant time owned or held by, or for the account of,
the Company shall not be deemed outstanding.
(g) Officer's Certificate. Whenever the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as
required by the provisions of Section (f) hereof, the Company shall forthwith
file in the custody of its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary at its principal
office, and with its stock transfer and warrant agent, if any, an officer's
<PAGE>
certificate showing the adjusted Exercise Price determined as herein provided
and setting forth in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment. Each
such officer's certificate shall be made available at all reasonable times for
inspection by the Holder and the Company shall, forthwith after each such
adjustment, deliver a copy of such certificate to the Holder.
(h) Notices to Holders. So long as this Warrant shall be outstanding and
unexercised (i) if the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution
upon the Common Shares or (ii) if the Company shall offer to the holders of
Common Shares for subscription or purchase by them any shares of stock of any
class or any other rights or (iii) if any capital reorganization of the Company,
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of
the Company with or into another corporation, sale, lease or transfer of all or
substantially all of the property and assets of the Company to another
corporation, or voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up
of the Company shall be effected, then, in any such case, the Company shall
cause to be delivered to the Holder, at least 10 days prior to the date
specified in (x) or (y) below, as the case may be, a notice containing a brief
description of the proposed action and stating the date on which (x) a record is
to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights, or (y)
such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the date, if any is
to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Shares of record shall be
entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger,
conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.
(i) Reclassification, Reorganization or Merger. In case of any
reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Common
Shares of the Company (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no
par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of an issuance of
Common Shares by way of dividend or other distribution or of a subdivision or
combination), or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or
into another corporation (other than a merger with a subsidiary in which merger
the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any
reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Common
Shares of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) or in case of any
sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Company shall cause effective
provision to be made so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter, by
exercising this Warrant, to purchase the kind and amount of shares of stock and
other securities and property which the Holder would have received upon such
reclassification, capital reorganization or other change, consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance had this Warrant been exercised prior to the consummation of
such transaction. Any such provision shall include provision for adjustments
which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this Warrant. The foregoing provisions of this Section (i) shall
similarly apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations and
changes of Common Shares and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or
conveyances. In the event the Company spins off a subsidiary by distributing to
the shareholders of the Company as a dividend or otherwise the stock of the
subsidiary, the Company shall reserve for the life of this Warrant, shares of
the subsidiary to be delivered to the Holders of the Warrants upon exercise to
the same extent as if they were owners of record of the Warrant Shares on the
record date for distribution of the shares of the subsidiary.
(j) Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933.
(1) On or before December 31, 1998, the Company will file and cause to
become effective a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Act"), registering the Warrants and the Warrant Shares;
provided however, that so long as the Company has used its reasonable best
efforts to file such registration statement and responded to any comments
relating thereto in a timely manner, the Company will not be in default of
its obligations relating to such filing if the registration statement does
not become effective by December 31, 1998.
<PAGE>
(2) The Company shall:
(A) Supply to each selling Holder a copy of the registration
statement and a reasonable number of copies of the preliminary, final
and other prospectus in conformity with requirements of the Act and
the Rules and Regulations promulgated thereunder and such other
documents as the Holders shall reasonably request.
(B) The Company shall bear the complete cost and expense (other
than any selling commissions relating to the sale of the Warrants and
Warrant Shares, which shall be paid by the sellers thereof) of such
registrations or qualifications except those filed under subsection
(j)(3) which shall be at the Holder(s) cost and expense.
(C) Keep effective such registration statement until all of the
registered Warrant Shares issued by the Company either before or after
the effective date of such registration statement have been publicly
sold under such registration statement.
(D) Use its best efforts to register or qualify the Warrants and
Warrant Shares for sale in those states requested by the person
selling the Warrants or Warrant Shares; provided that, the Company
shall not be required to register or qualify the Warrants and Warrant
Shares for sale in any state in which the sale of the Warrants or
Warrant Shares by the person selling the Warrants or Warrant Shares
would be exempt from having to be registered or qualified in such
state. The determination of whether or not such an exemption exists
shall be made by counsel for the Company and such determination shall
be provided in writing to the person desiring to sell Warrants or
Warrant Shares in a state.
(E) Indemnify and hold harmless each such Holder and each
underwriter, within the meaning of the Act, who may purchase from or
sell for any such Holder, any Warrants or Warrant Shares, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, and liabilities
(including but not limited to, any and all expenses whatsoever
reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing, defending or settling
any claim) arising from (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in any registration statement furnished
pursuant to clause (A) of this subsection, or any prospectus included
therein or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading (unless such untrue statement or
omission or such alleged untrue statement or omission was based upon
information furnished or required to be furnished in writing to the
Company by such Holder or underwriter expressly for use therein),
which indemnification shall include each person, if any, who controls
any such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Act;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be so obligated to
indemnify any such Holder or underwriter or controlling person unless
such Holder and underwriter shall at the same time indemnify the
Company, its directors, each officer signing any registration
statement or any amendment to any registration statement and each
person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses
whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing, defending
or settling any claim) arising from (i) any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement
or prospectus furnished pursuant to Clause (A) of this subsection, or
(ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, but the indemnity of such Holder, underwriter
or controlling person shall be limited to liability based upon
<PAGE>
information furnished, or required to be furnished, in writing to the
Company by such Holder or underwriter or controlling person expressly
for use therein. The Company shall not be liable for amounts paid in
settlement of any such litigation if such settlement was effected
without the consent of the Company. The indemnity agreement of the
Company herein shall not inure to the benefit of any such underwriter
(or to the benefit of any person who controls such underwriter) on
account of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities (or actions or
proceedings in respect thereof) arising from the sale of any of such
Warrants or Warrant Shares by such underwriter to a person if such
underwriter failed to send or give a copy of the prospectus furnished
pursuant to Clause (A) of this subsection, as the same may then be
supplemented or amended (if such supplement or amendment shall have
been furnished to the Holders pursuant to said Clause (A)), to such
person with or prior to the written confirmation of the sale involved.
(3) As a condition to the Company's obligation in subsection (j)(1)
hereof, each Holder shall supply such information as the Company may
reasonably require from such Holder, or any underwriter for such Holders,
for inclusion in such registration statement or posteffective amendment.
(4) The Company's agreements with respect to the Warrants and Warrant
Shares in this Section will continue in effect regardless of the exercise
or surrender of this Warrant.
(5) Any notices or certificates by the Company to the Holder and by
the Holder to the Company shall be deemed delivered if in writing and
delivered personally or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested,
to the Holder, addressed to the Holder at the Holder's address as set forth
on the Warrant or stockholder register of the Company, or, if the Holder
has designated, by notice in writing to the Company, any other address, to
such other address, and, if to the Company, addressed to it at 12600 West
Colfax Avenue, Suite A-500, Lakewood, Colorado 80215-3735. The Company may
change its address by written notice to the Holder.
(k) Transfer to Comply with the Securities Act of 1933. The Company may
cause the following legend, or one similar thereto, to be set forth on the
Warrants and on each certificate representing Warrant Shares or any other
security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant not theretofore
distributed to the public or sold to underwriters for distribution to the public
pursuant to Section (j) hereof; unless legal counsel for the Company is of the
opinion as to any such certificate that such legend, or one similar thereto, is
unnecessary:
"The securities represented by this certificate may not be offered for
sale, sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an effective
registration statement made under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"Act") and under any applicable state securities law, or pursuant to an
exemption from registration under the Act and under any applicable
state securities law, the availability of which is to be established to
the satisfaction of the Company."
(l) Exchange Provisions.
(1) For purposes of this Section (l), this Warrant shall be deemed to
represent the same number of Warrants as there are Warrant Shares
underlying this Warrant. For example, if there are 10,000 Warrant Shares
underlying this Warrant, then for purposes of this Section (l) the Holder
shall be deemed to hold 10,000 Warrants.
(2) For purposes of this Section (l), the following terms shall have
the following meanings:
<PAGE>
(A) "Current Market Value of a Warrant Share" shall be the value
of a Warrant Share as determined under Section (c)(1) or (2) hereof
except that the time of the determination thereunder shall be the last
business day prior to the day the Company receives a notice from the
Holder under this Section (l).
(B) "Warrant Value" shall mean the Current Market Value of a
Warrant Share minus or less the Exercise Price payable under this
Warrant as of the close of business on the last business day prior to
the day the Company receives a notice from the Holder under this
Section (l).
(3) The Holder shall have the right to exchange, in a cashless
transaction, all or part of the Holder's Warrants for Common Shares issued
by the Company at anytime prior to the Expiration Date of such Warrants by
providing written notice ("Notice") to the Company. Such Notice shall set
forth the number of Warrants which the Holder elects to exchange for Common
Shares.
(4) Within 10 days after receipt of such Notice by the Company, the
Company shall issue the number of Common Shares of the Company to the
Holder which is determined by dividing the Warrant Value of the Warrants
being exchanged by the Current Market Value of a Warrant Share as of the
date the Notice is received by the Company.
(5) The Holder shall surrender the Warrant which the Holder is
exchanging for Common Shares upon receipt thereof. If the entire Warrant is
being exchanged by the Holder for Common Shares, the Company shall cancel
the entire Warrant. If less than the entire Warrant is being exchanged for
Common Shares, the Company shall issue a new Warrant to the Holder
representing the portion of this Warrant which was not exchanged for Common
Shares.
(m) Applicable Law. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the state of Colorado.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT
THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT (the "Guaranty") is given by HENG FUNG HOLDINGS
COMPANY LIMITED, a Hong Kong corporation (the "Guarantor"), for the benefit of
the purchasers ("Investors") of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be
offered by FRONTEER FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, LTD., a Colorado corporation ("Issuer"),
pursuant to a confidential offering memorandum. In consideration of the
substantial direct and indirect benefits, the Guarantor, as a major beneficial
shareholder of the Issuer, will derive therefrom, the Guarantor gives the
following guaranty to the Investors.
Section 1. The Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby UNCONDITIONALLY AND
IRREVOCABLY GUARANTEES the full and punctual payment by the Issuer to Investors
when due of all cash dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock through October
31, 2003. As used in this Guaranty, the term "Obligations" shall refer to the
obligations of payment, which the Guarantor has undertaken and assumed pursuant
to this Guaranty.
Section 2. Nature of the Guaranty. This Guaranty: (a) is (i) irrevocable;
(ii) absolute and unconditional; (iii) direct, immediate and primary; and (iv)
one of payment and not just collection; and (b) makes the Guarantor a surety to
Investors and primarily liable with the Issuer.
Section 3. Investors Need Not Pursue Other Rights Before Enforcing
Guaranty. Investors shall be under no obligation to pursue their rights against
the Issuer or against any other guarantor or any other person that is now or
hereafter liable upon or in connection with any of the obligations of the
Guarantor or the Issuer to Investors.
Section 4. Waivers by the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby waives any and
all notices whatsoever with respect to this Guaranty or with respect to any of
the obligations of the Issuer to Investors, including, but not limited to,
notice of: (i) Investors' acceptance hereof or Investors' intention to act, or
Investors' action, in reliance hereon; (ii) the present existence or future
incurring of any of the Obligations of the Issuer to Investors or any terms or
amounts thereof or any change therein; and (iii) any default by the Issuer.
Section 5. Unenforceability of Obligations of the Issuer. This Guaranty
shall be valid, binding, and enforceable even if the obligations of the Issuer
to Investors, which are guaranteed hereby, are now or hereafter become invalid
or unenforceable for any reason.
Section 6. No Conditions Precedent. This Guaranty shall be effective and
enforceable immediately upon its execution. The Guarantor acknowledges that no
unsatisfied conditions precedent to the effectiveness and enforceability of this
Guaranty exist as of the date of its execution and that the effectiveness and
enforceability of this Guaranty are not in any way conditioned or contingent
upon any event, occurrence, or happening, or upon any condition existing or
coming into existence either before or after the execution of this Guaranty.
Section 7. Obligations Unconditional. The payment and performance of the
Obligations shall be the absolute and unconditional duty and obligation of the
Guarantor, and shall be independent of any defense or any rights of set-off,
recoupment or counterclaim which the Guarantor might otherwise have against
Investors, and the Guarantor shall pay and perform the Obligations, free of any
deductions and without abatement, diminution or set-off; and until such time as
<PAGE>
the Obligations have been fully paid and performed, the Guarantor: (a) shall not
suspend or discontinue any payments provided for in this Guaranty; (b) shall
perform and observe all of the covenants and agreements contained in this
Guaranty; and (c) shall not terminate or attempt to terminate this Guaranty for
any reason. No delay by Investors in making demand on the Guarantor for

ability to enforce this Guaranty.

assert against Investors any defense (whether legal or equitable), claim,
counterclaim, or right of set-off or recoupment which the Guarantor may now or
hereafter have against the Issuer.
Section 9. Expenses of Collection and Attorneys' Fees. The Guarantor shall
pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Investors in collecting sums
due under this Guaranty, including, without limitation, the costs of any lien,
judgment or other record searches, appraisals, travel expenses and the like.
Section 10. Enforcement During Bankruptcy. Enforcement of this Guaranty
shall not be stayed or in any way delayed, as a result of the filing of a
petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or other similar
statutory scheme, by or against the Issuer. Should Investors be required to
obtain an order of the United States Bankruptcy Court or other court of
competent jurisdiction to begin enforcement of this Guaranty after the filing of
a petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or other similar
statutory scheme, by or against the Issuer, the Guarantor hereby consents to
this relief and agrees to file or cause to be filed all appropriate pleadings to
evidence and effectuate such consent and to enable Investors to obtain the
relief requested.
Section 11. Remedies Cumulative. All of Investors' rights and remedies
shall be cumulative and any failure of Investors to exercise any right hereunder
shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any
other right at any time, and from time to time, thereafter.
Section 12. Discharge of Guaranty. This Guaranty shall not be discharged
and the Guarantor shall not be released from liability until all Obligations
have been satisfied in full and the satisfaction of the Obligations is not
subject to challenge or contest. If all or any portion of the Obligations are
satisfied and Investors are required for any reason to pay to any person the
sums used to satisfy the Obligations, the Obligations shall remain in effect and
enforceable to the extent thereof.
Section 13. Termination. This Guaranty may be terminated only in writing by
the Investors.
Section 14. Choice of Law. The laws of the State of Colorado (excluding,
however, conflict of law principles) shall govern and be applied to determine
all issues relating to this Guaranty and the rights and obligations of the
Guarantor, including the validity, construction, interpretation, and
enforceability of this Guaranty and its various provisions and the consequences
and legal effect of all transactions and events which resulted in the issuance
of this Guaranty or which occurred or were to occur as a direct or indirect
result of this Guaranty having been executed.
Section 15. Consent to Jurisdiction; Agreement as to Venue. The Guarantor
irrevocably consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state
courts located in the State of Colorado. The Guarantor agrees that venue shall
be proper in any such courts.
Section 16. Invalidity of Any Part. If any provision or part of any
provision of this Guaranty shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provisions or the remaining part of any effective
provisions of this Guaranty, and this Guaranty shall be construed as if such
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision or part thereof had never been
contained herein, but only to the extent of its invalidity, illegality, or
unenforceability.
<PAGE>
Section 17. Amendment or Waiver. This Guaranty may be amended only by a
writing. No waiver by any of the Investors of any of the provisions of the
Guaranty or any of the rights or remedies of Investors with respect hereto shall
be effective or enforceable unless in writing.
Section 18. Binding Nature. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of and
be enforceable by Investors and their successors and assigns, including any
person to whom any of the Investors may transfer their Series B Preferred Stock,
and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the Guarantor and the
Guarantor's successors and permitted assigns.
Section 19. Assignability. Without any notice to Guarantor, this Guaranty
shall automatically be assigned whenever an Investor transfers Series B
Preferred Stock. Upon such assignment, the person who is assigned the Series B
Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be an Investor as such term is defined in
this Guaranty and shall have all of the rights and obligations as an Investor.

connection with this Guaranty, without implying the obligation to provide any

Section 21. Final Agreement. This Guaranty contains the final and entire
