pursuant to a waiver of certain  requirements  and/or  covenants  contained in a
certain Loan  Agreement  between the Holder and the Company dated April 30, 2002

entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provision of these Warrants'

<PAGE>

provided,  however,  that if the  Holder  hereof  shall  fail to make  any  such
request,  such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company
to afford to such Holder any such rights.

fractional  shares of Common  Stock on the exercise of these  Warrants.  If more
than one Warrant  shall be  presented  for exercise at the same time by the same
holder,  the number of full shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable  upon
such exercise  shall be computed on the basis of the  aggregate  number of whole
shares of Common Stock purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented.  If
any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this
Section,  be issuable on the exercise of this Warrant,  the Company shall pay an
amount in cash  calculated by it to be equal to the Market Price of one share of
Common stock at the time of such exercise  multiplied by such fraction  computed
to the nearest whole cent.

         REGISTERED   UNDER  THE   SECURITIES  ACT  OF  1933,  AS  AMENDED  (THE
         "SECURITIES   ACT"),   OR   ANY   OTHER   APPLICALBE   SECURITIES   LAW
         AND,ACCORDINGLY, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATEM;AY NOT

         APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS."

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                  Anti-Dilution

         4.1 If and whenever  any  Additional  Common Stock (as herein  defined)
shares  shall  be  issued  by  the  company  (the  "Stock  Issue  Date")  for  a
consideration per share less than the Exercise Price, then in each such case the
initial  Exercise  Price shall be reduced to a new  Exercise  Price in an amount
equal to the  consideration per share received by the Company for the additional
shares of Common  Stock then issued and the number of shares  issuable to Holder
upon conversion shall be proportionately  increased;  and, in the case of shares
issued without consideration,  the initial Exercise Price shall be reduced in an
amount and number of shares  issued upon  conversion  shall be  increased  in an
amount so as to maintain for the Holder the right to exercise  into shares equal
in amount to the same percentage  interest in the Common Stock of the Company as
existed for the Holder immediately preceding the Stock Issue Date.

         4.2 Sale of Shares:  In case of the issuance of Additional Common Stock
for a  consideration  part or all of which shall be cash, the amount of the cash
consideration therefore shall be deemed to be the amount of the case received by
the company for such  shares,  after any  compensation  or discount in the sale,
underwriting or purchase thereof by underwriters or dealers or others performing
similar services or for any expenses incurred in connection  therewith.  In case
of the issuance of any shares of  Additional  Common  Stock for a  consideration
part or all of which shall be other than cash,  the amount of the  consideration

securities  into shares of Common  Stock,  the shares of Common  Stock issued in

other than cash.  Shares of Additional Common Stock issued by way of dividend or
other  distribution on any class of stock of the Company shall be deemed to have
been issued without consideration.

         4.4 Split up of Combination of Shares:  In case issued and  outstanding
shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided or split up into a greater  number of
shares  of the  Common  Stock,  the  Exercise  Price  shall  be  proportionately
decreased,  and in case issued and  outstanding  shares of Common Stock shall be
combined  into a smaller  number of shares of Common Stock,  the Exercise  Price
shall be proportionately  increased,  such increase or decrease, as the case may
be, becoming effective at the time of record of the split-up or combination,  as
the case may be.

         4.5 Exceptions: The term "Additional Common Stock" herein shall mean in
the most  broadest  sense all  shares of Common  Stock  hereafter  issued by the
Company (including,  but not limited to Common Stock held in the treasury of the
Company and common stock  purchasable  via derivative  security or option on the
date of such  grant),  except  Common  Stock  issued  upon the  exercise of this
warrant or Convertible Notes.

         4.6 In the event of  distribution  to all Common  Stock  holders of any
stock,  indebtedness  of the  Company  or  assets or other  rights  to  purchase
securities or assets,  then,  after such event, the Exercise Price reduced to so
entitle  the Holder to the  economic  interest he had  immediately  prior to the
occurrence of such event.

         4.7 In  case of any  capital  reorganization,  reclassification  of the
stock of the Company (other than a change in par value or as a result of a stock
dividend,  subdivision,  split up or combination of shares),  the Exercise Price
reduced  to so as to  entitle  the  Holder  to  the  economic  interest  he  has
immediately  prior to the  occurrence  of such event.  The  provisions  of these
foregoing   sentence  shall  similarly  apply  to  successive   reorganizations,
reclassifications,   consolidations,   exchanges,  leases,  transfers  or  other
dispositions or other share exchanges.

take any action which shall result in an adjustment in the Exercise  Price,  the
Company  shall give notice to the Holder,  which notice shall specify the record
date,  if any,  with respect to such action and the date on which such action is
to take place.  Such  notice  shall be given on or before the earlier of 10 days
before the record  date or the date on which such  action  shall be taken.  Such
notice  shall also set forth all facts (to the  extent  known)  material  to the
effect of such action on the  Exercise  Price and the  number,  kind or class of
shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable
upon the occurrence of such action or deliverable  upon exercise of this warrant
(B)  Following  completion  of an event  wherein  the  Exercise  Price  shall be
adjusted,  the Company  shall  furnish to the Holder a  statement,  signed by an
authorized  officer of the Company of the facts  creating  such  adjustment  and
specifying the resultant adjusted Exercise Price then in effect.

connection  with any exchange or  replacement.  The Company  shall pay all taxes
(other than  securities  transfer  taxes or income taxes) and all other expenses
