necessary to continue its business, at a cost that would not materially and
adversely affect the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings,
business or operations of the Company, taken as a whole.

         The Company hereby covenants with the Purchasers as follows:

         4.1. INTEGRATION. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf
will offer, sell or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of
any security (as defined in the Securities Act) in a manner that would cause the
offer and sale of the Common Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares to fail

                REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS

         Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and
warrants to the Company with respect to the purchase of the Common Shares by
such Purchaser and issuance of the Warrants to such Purchaser as follows:

         5.1. EXPERIENCE. Such Purchaser has substantial experience in
evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in
companies similar to the Company so that such Purchaser is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to
protect its own interests.

         5.2. INVESTMENT INTENT. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Common Shares
and the Warrants for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent,
and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
thereof. Such Purchaser understands that the Common Shares to be purchased and
the Warrants to be issued have not been registered under the Securities Act by
reason of the exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act
contained in Rule 506 of Regulation D and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act,

of the investment intent and the accuracy of such Purchaser's representations as
expressed herein.

buyer," as that term is defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act, or an

         5.4. RULE 144. Such Purchaser acknowledges that the Common Shares and
the Warrants (and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants) must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the
Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available. Such
Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act which permit limited resale of securities purchased in a


                                       9
<PAGE>   10

private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including,
among other things, the existence of a public market for the securities, the
availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale
occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and fully paid for
the security to be sold, the sale being effected through a "broker's
transaction" or in transaction directly with a "market maker" and the number of
shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified
limitations.

         5.5. RELIANCE. Such Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the
Common Shares are being offered and sold and the Warrants are being issued to
such Purchaser without registration under the Securities Act in a private
placement that is exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act
under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or SEC Regulation D, Rule 506,
promulgated thereunder and (ii) the availability of such exemption depends in
part on, and the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of, the
representations set forth in this Section 5 and such Purchaser hereby consents
to such reliance.

         5.6. ACCESS TO INFORMATION. Such Purchaser has had an opportunity to
discuss the Company's business, management and financial affairs with its
management. It has also had an opportunity to ask questions of officers of the
Company, which questions were answered to its satisfaction. Such Purchaser
understands that such discussions, as well as any written information issued by
the Company, were intended to describe certain aspects of the Company's business
and prospects. Such Purchaser acknowledges and understands that, in the course
of such discussions, it may have been provided access to material, non-public
information concerning the Company. Further, the Purchaser acknowledges and
understands the fact that the Company is seeking to effect the private placement
of the Common Shares and the Warrants is material non-public information and
disclosure of such information or use of such information by the Purchasers or
anyone receiving such information from the Purchasers in connection with the
purchase, sale or trade of the Company's securities (other than use by the
Purchasers in acquiring the Common Shares and the Warrants), or any hedging,
derivative or similar transactions or activities involving the Company's
securities, is unlawful and constitutes a violation of securities laws. Nothing
contained in this Section 5.6 modifies, amends or affects each Purchaser's right
to rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained in Section 3
above.

         5.7. ORGANIZATION; AUTHORIZATION. Such Purchaser is a corporation or a
limited duration company or a limited liability company or limited partnership
or a business trust or other entity duly formed, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, organization
or formation with the requisite power and authority, corporate or otherwise, to
enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Agreements and
otherwise to carry out its obligations under the Agreement. The purchase by such
Purchaser of the Common Shares and the acquisition of the Warrants hereunder has
been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of such Purchaser. This
Agreement when executed and delivered by such Purchaser will constitute a valid
and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with
its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency and the relief of debtors and rules of law governing specific
performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.


                                       10
<PAGE>   11

         5.8. BROKERS OR FINDERS. The Company has not, and will not, incur,
directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken alone by such Purchaser,
any liability for brokerage or finders' fees or agents' commissions or any
similar charges in connection with this Agreement.

         5.9. LEGEND. Such Purchaser understands that the certificates
evidencing the Common Shares will bear the following legend: "THESE SECURITIES
HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD,
OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION
STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR
UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT."

         In addition, the Purchasers acknowledge that each certificate for
Common Shares sold to a Purchaser shall bear any additional legend required by
any other applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws.

         The Company's transfer agent and registrar will maintain stop transfer
instructions on record for the Common Shares until it has been notified by the
Company, upon the advice of counsel, that such instructions may be waived. Such
stop transfer instructions will limit the method of sale of the Common Shares,
consistent with Rule 144 or other available exemptions from registration under
the Securities Act. Any transfers other than pursuant to Rule 144 will require
an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company and its counsel prior to such
transfers.

         5.10. GOVERNMENTAL REVIEW. Such Purchaser understands that no United
States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency or
authority has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the
Common Shares.

         5.11. RESIDENCY. Such Purchaser is a resident of the jurisdiction set
forth immediately below such Purchaser's name on Schedule 1 hereto.

                                   SECTION 6.

         8.1. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by
the internal laws of the State of New York as applied to agreements entered into
among New York residents to be performed entirely within New York, without
reference to the principles of conflict of laws under New York law.

and the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby.

         8.3. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto,
provided, however, that the rights of the Purchasers to purchase the Common

         8.4. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement, the Warrant and the
Registration Rights Agreement constitute the full and entire understanding and
agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof,
and no party shall be liable or bound to any other party in any manner by any
warranties, representations or covenants except as specifically set forth herein
or therein. Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any
term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a
written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such
amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought; provided, however, that
holders of a majority of the Common Shares issued or purchasable hereunder may,
with the Company's prior written consent, waive, modify or amend on behalf of
the Purchasers, any provision hereof.

         8.5. NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications required or
permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile transmission, or otherwise
delivered by hand or by messenger, addressed (a) if to any Purchaser, at the
Purchaser's address set forth on Schedule 1, or at such other address as such
Purchaser shall have furnished to the Company in writing, or (b) if to any other
holder of any shares, at such address as such holder shall have furnished the
Company in writing, or, until any such holder so furnishes an address to the
Company, then to and at the address of the last holder of such shares who has so
furnished an address to the Company, or (c) if to the Company, one copy should
be sent to its address set forth on the cover page of this Agreement and
addressed to the attention of the Corporate Secretary, or at such other address
as the Company shall have furnished to the Purchasers.

         Each such notice or other communication shall for all purposes of this
Agreement be treated as effective or having been given when delivered if
delivered personally, or, if sent by mail, at the earlier of its receipt or 72
hours after the same has been deposited in a regularly maintained receptacle for
the deposit of the United States mail, addressed and mailed as aforesaid, or if

<PAGE>   15

         8.6. DELAYS OR OMISSIONS. Except as expressly provided herein, no delay
or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any holder of any
shares, upon any breach or default of the Company under this Agreement, shall
impair any such right, power or remedy of such holder nor shall it be construed
to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of
or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver
of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or
default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or
approval of any kind or character on the part of any holder of any breach or
default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any holder of any
provisions or conditions of this agreement, must be in writing and shall be
effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All
remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any
holder, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

         8.7. EXPENSES. The Company and each of the Purchasers shall each bear
their own legal and other expenses with respect to this Agreement.

         8.8. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the
same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by
each party and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that the
parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is
delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature
page were an original thereof.

         8.9. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect
without said provision; provided that no such severability shall be effective if
it materially changes the economic benefit of this Agreement to any party.

         8.10. TITLES AND SUBTITLES. The titles and subtitles used in this
Agreement are used for convenience only and are not considered in construing or
interpreting this Agreement.

         8.11. NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto, The Robinson-Humphrey Company, as placement agent
(and its directors, officers, agents, affiliates and controlling persons) and
their respective permitted successors and assigns and is not for the benefit of,
nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

         8.12. INDEPENDENT NATURE OF PURCHASERS' OBLIGATIONS AND RIGHTS. The
obligations of each Purchaser hereunder are several and not joint with the
obligations of the other Purchaser hereunder, and no Purchaser shall be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Purchaser hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or
document delivered at the Closing, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant
hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a
partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of Person, or
create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any


                                       15
<PAGE>   16

way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to protect and
enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of the
Agreements, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined
as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

         8.13. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to
be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and
deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as
the other parties may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.

                                                                   June __, 2001

         SPECTRX, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for value
received, hereby certifies that [NAME OF ENTITY], or its registered assigns,
(the "Holder") is entitled to purchase from the Company, at any time or from
time to time prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Savings time, on June __, 2006
(the "Expiration Date"), _______ duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock, as constituted on the date hereof (the
"Common Stock"), of the Company at a purchase price of $9.8874 per share (the
"Warrant Price"), all subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments set forth
below in this Warrant.

1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

         1.1. MANNER OF EXERCISE. This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder,
in whole or in part, during normal business hours on any Business Day prior to
the Expiration Date by surrender of this Warrant to the Company at the principal
executive office of the Company, accompanied by (i) a subscription in the form
of Schedule 1 hereto duly executed by such holder and (ii) by payment in cash or
by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by
wire transfer in the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of
Common Stock


                                       20
<PAGE>   21

(without giving effect to any adjustment therein) designated in such
subscription by (b) the Warrant Price.

         1.2. WHEN EXERCISE EFFECTIVE. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the
Business Day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as
provided in Section 1.1. At such time, the Person or Persons in whose name or
names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be
issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 1.3 shall be deemed to have
become the stockholder(s) of record thereof.

         1.3. DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC. As soon as practicable after
the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, and in any event within five
(5) Business Days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment
by it of any applicable issuance taxes) will cause to be issued to and delivered
or registered in the name of the holder hereof or, subject to Section 5, as such
holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may
direct, the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled upon
such exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would
otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount equal to the same fraction of the
Market Price per share on the Business Day next preceding the date of such
exercise. If the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository
Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, and so long as
certificates issued pursuant the exercise hereof do not bear a legend and the
holder is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend
thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit
the Warrant Shares so purchased to the holder by crediting the account of the
holder with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system ("DTC
Transfer"). If the aforementioned conditions to a DTC Transfer are not
satisfied, the Company shall deliver to the holder physical certificates
representing the Warrant Shares so purchased. Further, the holder may instruct
the Company to deliver to the holder physical certificates representing the
Warrant Shares so purchased in lieu of delivering such shares by way of DTC
Transfer. Any certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be
reasonably requested by the holder hereof, shall be registered in the name of
such holder and, following the date on which the Warrant Shares have been
registered for resale under the Securities Act pursuant to that certain
Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") dated June
___, 2001, by and between the Company and the other signatories thereto or
otherwise may be sold by the holder pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act (or a successor rule), shall not bear any restrictive legend. If
this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then the Company shall, at
its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the holder
a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or
faces thereof for issuance of the number of shares of Common Stock equal
(without giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares
called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such shares so
designated by such holder upon such exercise as provided in Section 1.1.

1.4. REPRESENTATIONS OF THE COMPANY.

The Company represents, warrants and acknowledges to the Holder that:

1.4.1    it is a corporation duly formed and validly existing in the State of
Delaware;

1.4.2    the Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for
issuance and delivery upon the exercise of the Warrants, the number of shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable upon the exercise
of all Warrants at the time outstanding. All such securities shall be duly
authorized and, when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued and, in
the case of shares, fully paid and nonassessable with no liability on the part
of the holders thereof.

1.4.3    this Warrant has been duly authorized and approved by all requisite
action of the Company, and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the
Company; and

1.4.4    when issued in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, the shares of
Common Stock covered by this Warrant will be duly authorized and validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable.

2. ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS.

2.1. STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATION.

2.1.1    TRIGGERING EVENTS. If at any time the Company shall: (i) declare a
dividend or otherwise make a distribution to the holders of its Common Stock in
the form of additional shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of
Common Stock, or (ii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then the adjustments set forth in
Sections 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 of this Section 2.1 shall be made to the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and to the Warrant
Price, respectively.

2.1.2    ADJUSTMENT TO NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FOR WHICH WARRANT IS
EXERCISABLE. The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable shall be adjusted to equal: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately before the occurrence of any
such event, (ii) multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the
total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of such event, and (B) the denominator of which is the total number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the occurrence of such
event.

2.1.3    ADJUSTMENT TO WARRANT PRICE. The Warrant Price shall be adjusted to
equal: (i) the Warrant Price immediately prior to the occurrence of any such
event, (ii) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately before
such event, and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the adjustment.


                                       22
<PAGE>   23
         2.1.4 EFFECTIVE DATE. Any adjustment under this Section 2.1 shall
become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or
combination becomes effective. Such adjustment shall be made successively
whenever such an event occurs.

         2.2. RECLASSIFICATION, EXCHANGE, AND SUBSTITUTION. If the Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be changed into the same or a
different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock or other
securities of the Company, including any such reclassification in connection
with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity,
whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a
subdivision or combination of shares provided for above), the Holder shall, on
its exercise, be entitled to receive the kind and number of shares of Common
Stock or other securities of the Company which the Holder would have owned or
been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised in full immediately
prior to the happening of such reclassification, exchange or substitution for
the same aggregate consideration. If the Company shall at any time change its
Common Stock into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or
classes of stock or other securities of the Company as set forth in this Section
2.2, the Warrant Price then in effect immediately before that reclassification,
exchange or substitution shall be adjusted by multiplying the Warrant Price by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock purchasable immediately thereafter. An adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 2.2 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such
event. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an event occurs.

         2.3. REORGANIZATION, MERGERS, CONSOLIDATIONS, OR SALES OF ASSETS. In
the event of a reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with or
into another entity, or the sale of substantially all of the Company's
properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entity to any other entity,
then, as part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, lawful
provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to
receive upon exercise of this Warrant, at any time prior to the Expiration Date
and upon payment of the Warrant Price then in effect, the number of shares of
Common Stock or Other Securities or property of the Company, or of the successor
corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation, to which the Holder
would have been entitled in such reorganization, merger, or consolidation or
sale if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before that reorganization,
merger, consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as
determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors) shall be made in
the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and
interests of the Holder after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale
to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including adjustment of the
Warrant Price then in effect and number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event, as near as
reasonably may be, in relation to any Common Stock or Warrants or other property
deliverable after than event upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall,
within thirty (30) days after making such adjustment, give written notice (by
first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the address of the Holder
shown on the Company's books. That notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail,
the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which the adjustment was
calculated and specify the Warrant Price then in effect after the adjustment and
the increased or decreased number of shares of Common Stock purchasable


                                       23
<PAGE>   24

upon exercise of this Warrant. When appropriate, that notice may be given in
advance and include as part of the notice required under other provisions of
this Warrant.

         2.4. DEFERRAL OF ADJUSTMENTS.

         2.4.1 Notwithstanding any adjustments to the Warrant Price required
under this Section 2, no adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable hereunder shall be required unless such adjustment would require an
increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) in the Warrant Price in effect
at the time such adjustment is otherwise so required to be made; provided,
however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 2.4.1 are not
required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any
subsequent adjustment. All calculations shall be made to the nearest .001 of a
cent.

         2.5. FORM OF WARRANT AFTER ADJUSTMENTS.

         2.5.1 The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any
adjustments in the Warrant Price or number or kind of the shares of Common Stock
purchasable pursuant to this Warrant, and Warrants theretofore or hereunder
issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as
are stated in this Warrant, as initially issued; provided, however, that the
Company may, at any time in its sole discretion (which shall be conclusive),
make any change in the form of Warrant certificate that it may deem appropriate
and that does not affect the substance thereof. Any Warrant certificate
thereafter issued, whether upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange or
substitution for, an outstanding Warrant certificate may be in the form so
changed.

3. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.

         3.1. RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. Except as otherwise permitted by this
Section 3, each Warrant originally issued, each Warrant issued upon direct or
indirect transfer, each certificate for Common Stock (or Other Securities)
issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, and each certificate issued upon the
direct or indirect transfer of any such Common Stock (or Other Securities),
shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the
following form, if applicable:

         "THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
         1933 OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR
         SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE
         SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR
         EXEMPTION THEREFROM."

         3.2. NOTICE OF PROPOSED TRANSFER: OPINIONS OF COUNSEL. Prior to any
transfer of any Restricted Securities which are not registered under an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act (other than a transfer
pursuant to Rule 144, Rule 144A or any comparable rule under such Act), the
holder thereof will give written notice to the Company of such holder's
intention to effect such transfer and to comply in all other respects with this
Section 3.2. Each


                                       24
<PAGE>   25

such notice shall (a) describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed
transfer in sufficient detail to enable counsel to render the opinion referred
to below, and (b) designate counsel for the holder giving such notice, which
counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The holder giving such
notice will submit a copy thereof to the counsel designated in such notice. The
following provisions shall then apply:

         3.2.1 if in the written opinion of such counsel for the holder,
obtained at the holder's sole cost and expense and a copy of which shall be
delivered to the Company and shall be reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and
substance to the Company, the proposed transfer may be effected without
registration of such Restricted Securities under the Securities Act or
applicable state securities laws, such holder shall thereupon be entitled to
transfer such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice
delivered by such holder to the Company. Each Restricted Security or
certificate, if any, issued upon or in connection with such transfer shall bear
the appropriate restrictive legend set forth in Section 3.1 unless, in the
opinion of such counsel, such legend is no longer required to insure compliance
with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; and

         3.2.2 if the opinion of such counsel rendered pursuant to the
foregoing subdivision 3.2.1 is not to the effect that the proposed transfer may
legally be effected without registration of such Restricted Securities under the
Securities Act or applicable state securities laws (such opinion to state the
basis of the legal conclusions reached therein), such holder shall not be
entitled to transfer such Restricted Securities (other than a transfer pursuant
to Rule 144, Rule 144A or any comparable rule under the Securities Act) until
receipt by the Company of a further notice and a further opinion of counsel for
such holder to the effect stated in subdivision 3.2.1 above or until
registration of such Restricted Securities under the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws has become effective.

         3.3. TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. The restrictions imposed by this
Section 3 upon the transferability of Restricted Securities shall cease and
terminate as to any particular Restricted Securities upon registration of the
Restricted Securities under the Securities Act or when, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, such restrictions are no longer required in order to
ensure compliance with the Securities Act. Whenever such restrictions shall
terminate as to any Restricted Securities, the holder thereof shall be entitled
to receive from the Company, without expense (other than transfer taxes, if
any), new securities of like tenor not bearing the applicable legend set forth
in Section 3.1.

4. OWNERSHIP TRANSFER AND SUBSTITUTION OF WARRANTS.

         4.1. OWNERSHIP OF WARRANTS. The Company, may treat the Person in whose
name any Warrant is registered on the register kept at the principal executive
office of the Company as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes,
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, except that, if and when any Warrant
is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to)
treat the bearer thereof as the owner of such Warrant for all purposes,
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Subject to Section 3, a Warrant, if
properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder without first having a new
Warrant issued.
