                                OPTIVISION, INC.
                        (Void after September 18, 2003)



     This certifies that VENTURE LENDING & LEASING, INC., a Maryland
corporation, or assigns (the "Holder"), for value received, is entitled to

Hundred Eight Thousand Four Hundred Thirty-four (108,434) fully paid and

September 18, 2003 (the "Expiration Date"), upon surrender to the Company at its
principal office at 3450 Hillview Avenue, Palo Alto, California 94304 (or at
such other location as the company may advise Holder in writing) of this Warrant
properly endorsed with the Form of Subscription attached hereto duly filled in
and signed and upon payment in cash or by check of the aggregate Stock Purchase
Price for the number of shares for which this Warrant is being exercised
determined in accordance with the provisions hereof.  The Stock Purchase Price
and the number of shares purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 4 of this Warrant.  This Warrant is issued in replacement of
the Warrant issued to the Holder dated September 19, 1996.

     This Warrant is subject to the following terms and conditions:

     1.   Exercise: Issuance of Certificates: Payment for Share.
          -----------------------------------------------------

          (a) Unless an election is made pursuant to clause (b) of this Section
1, this Warrant shall be exercisable at the option of the Holder, at any time or
from time to time prior to


<PAGE>

the earlier of: (i) 30 days prior to the effectiveness of the Company's first
registration statement filed with the securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, or (ii) the Expiration Date, for all or
any portion of the shares of Common Stock (but not for a fraction of a share)
which may be purchased hereunder for the Stock Purchase Price multiplied by the
number of shares to be purchased. The Company agrees that the shares of Common
Stock purchased under this Warrant shall be and are deemed to be issued to the
holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on
the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for
such shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 2, certificates for the shares
of Common Stock so purchased, together with any other securities or property to
which the Holder hereof is entitled upon such exercise, shall be delivered to
the Holder hereof by the Company at the Company's expense within a reasonable
time after the rights represented by this Warrant have been so exercised. Except
as provided in cause (b) of this Section 1, in case of a purchase of less than
all the shares which may be purchased under this Warrant, the Company shall
cancel this Warrant and execute and deliver to the Holder hereof within a
reasonable time a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor for the balance of the
shares purchasable under the Warrant surrendered upon such purchase. Each stock
certificate so delivered shall be in such denominations of Common Stock as may
be requested by the Holder hereof and shall be registered in the name of such
Holder or such other name as shall be designated by such Holder, subject to the
limitations contained in Section 2.

          (b) The Holder, in lieu of exercising this Warrant by the payment of
the Stock Purchase Price pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 1, may elect, at
any time on or before the Expiration Date, to receive, through conversion of
this Warrant or any portion hereof into that number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the quotient of: (i) the difference between (A) the Per Share Price (as
hereinafter defined) of the Common Stock, less (B) the Stock Purchase Price then
in effect, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock the Holder would
otherwise have been entitled to purchase hereunder pursuant to clause (a) of
this Section 1 (or such lesser number of shares as the Holder may designate in
the case of a partial exercise of this Warrant); over (ii) the Per Share Price.

          (c) For purposes of clause (b) of this Section 1, "Per Share Price"
means: (i) if the Company's Common Stock is then listed or admitted to trading
on any national securities exchange or traded on any national market system, the
average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Company's Common Stock as
reported on such exchange or market system for the ten (10) consecutive trading
days prior to the date of the Holder's election to convert hereunder; (ii) if
this warrant is being converted in conjunction with a public offering of stock,
the
                                       2
<PAGE>

price to the public per share pursuant to the offering; or (iii) if no
shares of the Company's Common Stock are listed or admitted to trading on any
national securities exchange or traded on any national market system, the price
per share which the Company would obtain from a willing buyer for shares sold by
the Company from authorized but unissued shares as such price shall be agreed
upon by the Holder and the Company or, if agreement cannot be reached within ten
(10) business days of the Holder's election hereunder, as such price shall be
determined by a panel of three (3) appraisers, one (1) to be chosen by the
Company, one (1) to be chosen by the Holder and the third to be chosen by the
first two (2) appraisers.  If the appraisers cannot reach agreement within 30
days of the Holder's election hereunder, then each appraiser shall deliver its
appraisal and the appraisal which is neither the highest nor the lowest shall
constitute the Per Share Price.

In the event either party fails to choose an appraiser within 30 days of the
Holder's election hereunder, then the appraisal of the sole appraiser shall
constitute the Per Share Price. Each party shall bear the cost of the appraiser
selected by such party and the cost of the third appraiser shall be borne one-
half by each party. In the event either party fails to choose an appraiser, the
cost of the sole appraiser shall be borne one-half by each party.

     2.   Limitation on Transfer.
          ----------------------

          (a) This Warrant and the Common Stock shall not be transferable except
upon the conditions specified in this Section 2, which conditions are intended
to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.  Each holder of
this Warrant or the Common Stock issuable hereunder will cause any proposed
transferee of the Warrant or Common Stock to agree to take and hold such
securities subject to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this
Section 2.

          (b) Each certificate representing this Warrant or the Common Stock
shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Section 2 or unless
such securities have been registered under the Securities Act or sold under Rule
144) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the form
set forth on the face of this Warrant.

          (c) The Holder of this Warrant and each person to whom this Warrant is
subsequently transferred represents and warrants to the Company (by acceptance
of such transfer) that it will not transfer the Warrant (or securities issuable
upon exercise hereof unless a registration statement under the Securities Act
was in effect with respect to such securities at the time of issuance thereof)
except pursuant to (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act; (ii) Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any similar rule under the
Securities Act relating to the disposition of securities), or (iii) an opinion

                                       3
<PAGE>

of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Company, that an
exemption from such registration is available.

     3.   Sharps to be Fully Paid: Reservation of Shares.  The Company covenants
          ----------------------------------------------
and agrees that all shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise
of the rights represented by this warrant will, upon issuance, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all pre-
emptive rights of any shareholder and free of all taxes, liens and charges with
respect to the issue thereof.  The Company further covenants and agrees that
during the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be
exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, for the
purpose of issue or transfer upon exercise of the subscription rights evidenced
by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued Common
Stock, or other securities and property, when and as required to provide for the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.  The Company will take all
such action as may be necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may
be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or
regulation, or of any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon
which the Common Stock may be listed.  The Company will not take any action
which would result in any adjustment of the Stock Purchase Price (as defined in
Section 4 hereof) if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after
such action upon exercise of all outstanding warrants, together with all shares
of Common Stock then outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable
upon exercise of all options and upon the conversion of all convertible
securities then outstanding, would exceed the total number of shares of Common
Stock then authorized by the Company's Articles of Incorporation.

     4.   Adjustment of Stock Purchase Price, Number of Shares.  The Stock
          ----------------------------------------------------
Purchase Price and the number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of
certain events described in this Section 4.  Upon each adjustment of the Stock
Purchase Price, the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to
purchase, at the Stock Purchase Price resulting from such, adjustment, the
number of shares obtained by multiplying the Stock Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares purchasable
pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment, and dividing the product
thereof by the Stock Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment.

          4.1  Subdivision or Combination of Stock.  In case the Company shall
               -----------------------------------
at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
number of shares, the Stock Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such
subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and conversely, in case the
outstanding
                                       4
<PAGE>

shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of
shares, the Stock Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination
shall be proportionately increased.

          4.2  Dividends in Preferred Stock, Other Stock, Property,
               ----------------------------------------------------
Reclassification.  If at any time or from time to time the holders of Common
----------------
Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon
the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received or become entitled to receive,
without payment therefor,

          (a) by way of dividend or other distribution, any shares of stock or
other securities, whether or not such securities are at any time directly or
indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or any rights or
options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing, or

          (b) any cash paid or payable otherwise than as a cash dividend, or

          (c) additional stock or other securities or property (including cash)
by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar
corporate rearrangement, (other than shares of Common Stock issued as a stock
split, adjustments in respect of which shall be covered by the terms of Section
4.1 above),

then and in each such case, the Holder hereof shall, upon the exercise of this
Warrant, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of shares of Common
Stock receivable thereupon, and without payment of any additional consideration
therefore, the amount of stock and other securities and property (including cash
in the cases referred to in clauses (b) and (c) above) which such Holder would
hold on the date of such exercise had he been the holder of record of such
Common Stock as of the date on which holders of Common Stock received or became
entitled to receive such shares and/or all other additional stock and other,
securities and property.

          4.3  Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
               ---------------------------------------------------------------
If any capital reorganization of the capital stock of the Company, or any
consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or other
reorganization, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets to another
corporation shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock
shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in
exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, lawful and adequate provisions
shall be made whereby the holder hereof shall thereafter have the

                                       5
<PAGE>

right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock of the
Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of
the rights represented hereby) such shares of stock, securities or assets as may
be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding
shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such stock
immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the
rights represented hereby. In any such case, appropriate provision shall be made
with respect to the rights and interests of the holder of this Warrant to the
end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for
adjustments of the Stock Purchase Price and of the number of shares purchasable
and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as may be possible, in relation to any shares of stock,
securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof.

          4.4  Sale or Issuance Below Purchase Price.  If the Company shall at
               -------------------------------------
any time or from time to time issue or sell any of its Common Stock, Preferred
Stock, options to acquire (or rights to acquire such options), or any other
securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, for a consideration
per share less than the Stock Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the
time of such issue or sale, the Stock Purchase Price then in effect and then
applicable for any subsequent period or periods shall be adjusted to a price
determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale
multiplied by the Stock Purchase Price then in effect and (y) the consideration,
if any, received by the Company upon such issue or sale, by (ii) the total
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or
sale.  For purposes of this Section 4.4, all shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise and/or conversion of all outstanding warrants (including this
Warrant), options and convertible securities shall be deemed to be outstanding.
The foregoing notwithstanding, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this
Section 4.4 on account of a given sale to the extent that (a) the Stock Purchase
Price is adjusted pursuant to any other Section of., this Warrant or (b) the
conversion price of the Preferred Stock is decreased pursuant to the terms
thereof.

          4.5  Notice of Adjustment.  Upon any adjustment of the Stock Purchase
               --------------------
Price, and/or any increase or decrease in the number of shares purchasable upon

Warrant at the address of such holder as shown on-the books of the Company.  The

foregoing clause (ii) shall, if applicable, also specify the date on which the
