                                       -2-
<PAGE>
     2. Exercise of Warrants. All or any part of the Warrant may be exercised
commencing on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and ending at 5:00
p.m. Pacific Time on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date by surrendering
this Warrant Certificate, together with appropriate instructions, duly executed
by the Warrantholder or by its duly authorized attorney, at the office of the
Company, 434 Olds Station Road, Wenatchee, Washington 98801, attention:
President, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate. Upon
receipt of notice of exercise, the Company shall immediately instruct its
transfer agent to prepare certificates for the Securities to be received by the
Warrantholder upon completion of the Warrant exercise. When such certificates
are prepared, the Company shall notify the Warrantholder and deliver such
certificates to the Warrantholder or as per the Warrantholder's instructions
immediately upon payment in full by the Warrantholder, in lawful money of the
United States, of the Exercise Price payable with respect to the Securities
being purchased. If the Warrantholder shall represent and warrant that all
applicable registration and prospectus delivery requirements for their sale have
been complied with upon sale of the Securities received upon exercise of the
Warrant, such certificates shall not bear a legend with respect to the
Securities Act of 1933.

     If fewer than all the Securities purchasable under the Warrant are
purchased, the Company will, upon such partial exercise, execute and deliver to
the Warrantholder a new Warrant Certificate (dated the date hereof), in form and
tenor similar to this Warrant Certificate, evidencing that portion of the
Warrant not exercised. The Securities to be obtained on exercise of the Warrant
will be deemed to have been issued, and any person exercising the Warrants will
be deemed to have become a holder of record of those Securities, as of the date
of the payment of the Exercise Price.

     3. Adjustments in Certain Events. The number, class, and price of
Securities for which this Warrant Certificate may be exercised are subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:

          (a) If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are
divided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in stock is paid on the
Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is then
exercisable will be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price will be
proportionately reduced; and, conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common
Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number
of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is then exercisable will be
proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price will be proportionately
increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this subsection 3(a)
will be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that
neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise
of the Warrants nor the price payable for such percentage upon such exercise
will be affected by any event described in this subsection 3(a). Upon the
occurrence of any such event, the number of Unit Warrants for which the Warrant
is then exercisable shall

                                       -3-
<PAGE>
not be adjusted, if such event results in an adjustment of the number of shares
purchasable or the exercise price (or both) under the Unit Warrants.

          (b) In case of any change in the Common Stock through merger,
consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete
liquidation, purchase of substantially all the assets of the Company, or other
change in the capital structure of the Company, then, as a condition of such
change, lawful and adequate provision will be made so that the holder of this
Warrant Certificate will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise
of the Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or
property to which he would have been entitled if, immediately prior to such
event, he had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the
exercise of the Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment will be made
in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights
and interest thereafter of the Warrantholder, to the end that the provisions set
forth herein will thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in
relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon
the exercise of the Warrant. The Company will not permit any change in its
capital structure to occur unless the issuer of the shares of stock or other
securities to be received by the holder of this Warrant Certificate, if not the
Company, agrees to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Warrant
Certificate. Upon the occurrence of any such event, the number of Unit Warrants
for which the Warrant is then exercisable shall not be adjusted, if such event
results in an adjustment of the number of shares purchasable or the exercise
price (or both) under the Unit Warrants.

          (c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the number of shares
of Common Stock, other securities, or the property purchasable upon exercise of
the Warrant, the Company will promptly determine the new number of such shares
or other securities or property purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant and (i)
prepare and retain on file a statement describing in reasonable detail the
method used in arriving at the new number of such shares or other securities or
property purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant and (ii) cause a copy of such
statement to be mailed to the Warrantholder within thirty (30) days after the
date of the event giving rise to the adjustment.

          (d) No fractional shares of Common Stock and no fractional Units
Warrants or other securities will be issued in connection with the exercise of
the Warrant, but the Company will pay, in lieu of fractional shares or
fractional Unit Warrants, a cash payment therefor on the basis of the mean
between the bid and asked prices of the Common Stock, or Unit Warrants, as the
case may be, in the over-the-counter market or the closing price on a national
securities exchange on the day immediately prior to exercise.

          (e) If securities of the Company or securities of any subsidiary of
the Company are distributed pro rata to holders of Common Stock, such number of
securities will be distributed to the Warrantholder or his assignee upon
exercise of his rights hereunder as such Warrantholder or assignee would have
been entitled to if this Warrant Certificate had been

                                       -4-
<PAGE>
exercised prior to the record date for such distribution. The provisions with
respect to adjustment of the Common Stock provided in this Section 3 will also
apply to the securities to which the Warrantholder or his assignee is entitled
under this subsection 3(e).

          (f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, there will be no
adjustment made hereunder on account of the sale of the Units or other
Securities purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant.

     4. Reservation of Securities. The Company agrees that the number of shares
of Common Stock, Unit Warrants or other Securities sufficient to provide for the
exercise of the Warrant upon the basis set forth above will at all times during
the term of the Warrant be reserved for exercise.

     5. Validity of Securities. All Securities delivered upon the exercise of
the Warrant will be duly and validly issued in accordance with their terms, and
the Company will pay all documentary and transfer taxes, if any, in respect of
the original issuance thereof upon exercise of the Warrant.

     6. Registration of Securities Issuable on Exercise of Warrant Certificate.

          (a) The Company will register the Securities with the Commission
pursuant to the Act so as to allow the unrestricted sale of the Securities to
the public from time to time commencing on the first anniversary of the
Effective Date and ending at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the fifth anniversary of
the Effective Date (the "Registration Period"). The Company will also file such
applications and other documents necessary to permit the sale of the Securities
to the public during the Registration Period in those states in which the Units
were qualified for sale in the Offering or such other states as the Company and
the Warrantholder agree to. In order to comply with the provisions of this
Section 6(a), the Company is not required to file more than one registration
statement at its expense. The Company will register the Securities on Form S-3
if the Company is eligible to use such form. No registration right of any kind,
"piggyback" or otherwise, will last longer than five years from the Closing
Date.

          (b) The Company will pay all of the Company's Expenses and each
Warrantholder will pay its pro rata share of the Warrantholder's Expenses
relating to the registration, offer, and sale of the Securities.

          (c) Except as specifically provided herein, the manner and conduct of
the registration, including the contents of the registration, will be entirely
in the control and at the discretion of the Company. The Company will file such
post-effective amendments and supplements as may be necessary to maintain the
currency of the registration statement during the period of its use. In
addition, if the Warrantholder participating in the registration is advised by
counsel that the registration statement, in their opinion, is deficient in any
material respect,

                                       -5-
<PAGE>
the Company will use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to be
amended to eliminate the concerns raised.

          (d) The Company will furnish to the Warrantholder the number of copies
of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Act, and such other documents as it may reasonably request
in order to facilitate the disposition of Securities owned by it.

          (e) The Company will, at the request of Warrantholders holding at
least 50 percent of the then outstanding Warrants, (i) furnish an opinion of the
counsel representing the Company for the purposes of the registration pursuant
to this Section 6, addressed to the Warrantholders and any Participating
Underwriter, (ii) furnish an appropriate letter from the independent public
accountants of the Company, addressed to the Warrantholders and any
Participating Underwriter, and (iii) make representations and warranties to the
Warrantholders and any Participating Underwriter. A request pursuant to this
subsection (e) may be made on three occasions. The documents required to be
delivered pursuant to this subsection (e) will be dated within ten days of the
request and will be, in form and substance, equivalent to similar documents
furnished to the underwriters in connection with the Offering, with such changes
as may be appropriate in light of changed circumstances.

     7. Indemnification in Connection with Registration.

          (a) If any of the Securities are registered, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each selling Warrantholder, any person who controls
any selling Warrantholder within the meaning of the Act, and any Participating
Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities, joint or
several, to which any Warrantholder, controlling person, or Participating
Underwriter may be subject under the Act or otherwise; and it will reimburse
each Warrantholder, each controlling person, and each Participating Underwriter
for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Warrantholder,
controlling person, or Participating Underwriter in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities, joint or several (or
actions in respect thereof), arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained, on the effective
date thereof, in any such registration statement or any preliminary prospectus
or final prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or
are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any case
to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, or liability arises out of or is
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in any registration statement, preliminary prospectus,
final prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished by a Warrantholder for use in
the preparation thereof. The indemnity agreement contained in this subparagraph
(a) will not apply

                                       -6-
<PAGE>
to amounts paid to any claimant in settlement of any suit or claim unless such
payment is first approved by the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld.

          (b) Each selling Warrantholder, as a condition of the Company's
registration obligation, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of
its directors, each of its officers who have signed any registration statement
or other filing or any amendment or supplement thereto, and any person who
controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, against any losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer, or
controlling person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, and will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any
such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise
out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in said registration statement, any preliminary or final
prospectus, or other filing, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise
out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in said
registration statement, preliminary or final prospectus, or other filing, or
amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished by such Warrantholder for use in the preparation thereof;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subparagraph
(b) will not apply to amounts paid to any claimant in settlement of any suit or
claim unless such payment is first approved by the Warrantholder, such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld.

          (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subparagraphs
(a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying
party, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the
omission to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability
that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under subparagraphs (a)
and (b).

          (d) If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it
notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish,
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the
defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; and after
notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to
assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation.

not be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated for a one-year period after
the Effective Date except to underwriters of the Offering or to individuals who
are either a partner or an officer of such an underwriter or by will or by
operation of law. The Warrant may be divided or combined, upon request to the
Company by the Warrantholder, into a certificate or certificates evidencing the
same aggregate number of Warrants.

     9. No Rights as a Shareholder. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Warrantholder will not, by virtue of ownership of the Warrant, be entitled to
any rights of a shareholder of the Company but will, upon written request to the
