2.  EXERCISE OF WARRANT

2.1 MANNER OF EXERCISE

          From and after the Closing Date and until 5:00 p.m., New York time, on
the Expiration Date, Holder may exercise this Warrant, on any Business Day, for
all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder.

          In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, Holder shall
deliver to the Company at its principal office at 11 Riverside Street, Nashua,
NH 03062-1373, or at the office or agency designated by the Company pursuant to
Section 12, (i) a written notice of Holder's election to exercise this Warrant,
which notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased,
(ii) to the extent such exercise is not being effected through a Cashless
Exercise, payment of the Warrant Price in cash or wire transfer or cashier's
check drawn on a United States bank and (iii) this Warrant.  Such notice shall
be substantially in the form of the subscription form appearing at the end of
this Warrant as Exhibit A, duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney.
Upon receipt of the items referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the
Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five Business
Days thereafter, execute or cause to be executed and deliver or cause to be
delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate
number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, together with
cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided.  The stock
certificate or certificates so delivered shall be, to the extent possible, in
such denomination or denominations as Holder shall request in the notice and
shall be registered in the name of Holder or, subject to Section 9, such other
name as shall be designated in the notice.  This Warrant shall be deemed to have
been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been
issued, and Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall
be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as
of the date the notice, together with the cash or check or checks and this
Warrant, is received by the Company as described above and all taxes required to
be paid by Holder, if any, pursuant to

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

Section 2.2 prior to the issuance of such shares have been paid. If this Warrant
shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of
the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Stock, deliver to Holder a
new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares
of Common Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other
respects be identical with this Warrant, or, at the request of Holder,
appropriate notation may be made on this Warrant and the same returned to
Holder. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall
not be required to register shares in the name of any Person who acquired this
Warrant (or part hereof) or any Warrant Stock otherwise than in accordance with
this Warrant.

          Simultaneously with the exercise of this Warrant, payment in full of
the Warrant Price shall be made, at the option of the Holder, (i) by payment of
the Warrant Price in cash or by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a
United States bank, (ii) through a net exercise without payment of the Warrant
Price in cash by providing notice to the Company of the Holder's election to
receive a number of shares of Common Stock in a Cashless Exercise equal to the
product of (1) the number of shares for which such Warrant is exercisable with
payment in cash of the Warrant Price as of the date of exercise and (2) the
Cashless Exercise Ratio or (iii) by any combination of clauses (i) and (ii).
For purposes of this Agreement, the "CASHLESS EXERCISE RATIO" shall equal a
fraction, the numerator of which is the excess of the Current Market Price per
share of the Common Stock on the date of exercise over the Current Warrant Price
as of the date of exercise, and the denominator of which is the Current Market
Price per share of the Common Stock on the date of exercise.  An exercise of a
Warrant in accordance with clause (ii) above is herein called a "CASHLESS
EXERCISE."  Following a Cashless Exercise, this Warrant shall be canceled in all
respects with regard to (a) the number of shares of Common Stock issued in
accordance with the Cashless Exercise plus (b) the number of shares used as
consideration for the Cashless Exercise.

2.2  PAYMENT OF TAXES AND CHARGES

          All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
pursuant to the terms hereof shall be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, freely tradable and without any preemptive rights.  The Company
shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental
charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance or delivery thereof,
unless such tax or charge is imposed by law upon Holder, in which case such
taxes or charges shall be paid by Holder.  The Company shall not be required,
however, to pay any tax or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer
involved in the issuance of any certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant in any name other than that of Holder, and in such
case the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any stock certificate
until such tax or other charge has been paid or it has been established to the
satisfaction of the Company that no such tax or other charge is due.

2.3  FRACTIONAL SHARES

          The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional share of
Common Stock upon exercise of any Warrant.  As to any fraction of a share which
Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company
shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

such final fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price
per share of Common Stock as of the Closing Date.

2.4  CONTINUED VALIDITY

          A holder of shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant, in whole or in part (other than a holder who acquires such shares after
the same have been publicly sold pursuant to a Registration Statement under the
Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144 or other exception from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act) shall be subject to and
continue to be subject to and entitled with respect to such shares to all rights
to which it would have been entitled as Holder under Sections 9, 10 and 14 of
this Warrant.  The Company will, at the time of exercise of this Warrant, in
whole or in part, upon the request of Holder, acknowledge in writing, in form
reasonably satisfactory to Holder, its continuing obligation to afford Holder
all such rights; provided, however, that if Holder shall fail to make any such
request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company
to afford to Holder all such rights.

3.  TRANSFER, DIVISION AND COMBINATION

3.1  TRANSFER

          Subject to compliance with Section 9, transfer of this Warrant and all
rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be registered on the books of the
Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the
principal office of the Company referred to in Section 2.1 or the office or
agency designated by the Company pursuant to Section 12, together with a written
assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto duly
executed by Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any
transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer.  Upon such surrender
and, if required, such payment, the Company shall, subject to Section 9, execute
and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees
and in the denomination specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall
issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not
so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled.  A Warrant, if
properly assigned in compliance with Section 9, may be exercised by a new Holder
for the purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new warrant issued.

3.2  DIVISION AND COMBINATION

          Subject to Section 9, this Warrant may be divided or combined with
other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office or agency of the
Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations
in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by Holder or its agent or
attorney.  Subject to compliance with Sections 3.1 and 9, as to any transfer
which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute
and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to
be divided or combined in accordance with such notice.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

3.3  EXPENSES

          The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other
than transfer taxes) the new Warrants or Warrants under this Section 3.
3.4  MAINTENANCE OF BOOKS

          The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office or agency,
books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants.
4.  ADJUSTMENTS

          The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable, or the price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise of
this Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in
this Section 4. The Company shall give Holder notice of any event described
below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 at the time of
such event.

4.1  STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS

If at any time the Company shall:

(a)  take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
     entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of,
     Additional Shares of Common Stock;
(b)  subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of
     shares of Common Stock; or
(c)  combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of
     shares of Common Stock;

then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted
to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to
receive after the happening of such event, and (ii) the Current Warrant Price
shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Current Warrant Price multiplied by the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares for
which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.

4.2  CERTAIN OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS

          If at any time the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or other
distribution of:

(a)  cash;

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

(b)  any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its stock or any other
     securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash,
     Convertible Securities or Additional Shares of Common Stock); or

(c)  any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of
     its indebtedness, any shares of its stock or any other securities or
     property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash, Convertible Securities
     or Additional Shares of Common Stock);

then, upon exercise of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive such
dividend or distribution as if Holder had exercised the Warrant prior to the
date of such dividend or distribution.  A reclassification of the Common Stock
(other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or from no
par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other
class of stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Company to the holders of
its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning
of this Section 4.2 and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be
changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of
such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination,
as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning
of Section 4.1.

4.3  OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THIS SECTION

          The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of
adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable and the Current Warrant Price provided for in this Section 4:

(A)  WHEN ADJUSTMENTS TO BE MADE.  The adjustments required by this Section 4
     shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an
     adjustment shall occur.  For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified
     event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date
     of its occurrence.

(B)  FRACTIONAL INTERESTS.   In computing adjustments under this Section 4,
     fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to the
     nearest 1/10th of a share.

(C)  WHEN ADJUSTMENT NOT REQUIRED.  If the Company shall take a record of the
     holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a
     dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall,
     thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally
     abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution,
     subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be
     required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment
     previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.

(D)  CHALLENGE TO GOOD FAITH DETERMINATION.  Whenever the Board of Directors of
     the Company shall be required to make a determination in good faith of the
     fair value of any item under this Section 4, such determination may be
     challenged in good faith by the Holder, and any dispute shall be resolved
     by an investment banking firm of recognized national standing selected by
     the Company and acceptable to Holder.

4.4  REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR DISPOSITION OF
ASSETS

          In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its
capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another Person (where the
Company is not the survivor or where there is a change in or distribution with
respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, convey, transfer or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business
to another Person, or effectuate a transaction or series of related transactions
in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of (each,
a "FUNDAMENTAL CORPORATE CHANGE") and, pursuant to the terms of such Fundamental
Corporate Change, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring
corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any
nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights)
in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring
corporation ("OTHER PROPERTY"), are to be received by or distributed to the
holders of Common Stock of the Company, then Holder shall have the right
thereafter to receive, upon exercise of the Warrant, such number of shares of
common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it
is the surviving corporation, and Other Property as is receivable upon or as a
result of such Fundamental Corporate Change by a holder of the number of shares
of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
Fundamental Corporate Change.  In case of any such Fundamental Corporate Change,
the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall
expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and
every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the
Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such
modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined by resolution of the
Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of shares
of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly
equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4.
For purposes of this Section 4.4, "COMMON STOCK OF THE SUCCESSOR OR ACQUIRING
CORPORATION" shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not
preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such
corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any
evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are
convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon
the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock.  The
foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive
Fundamental Corporate Change.

4.5  OTHER ACTION AFFECTING COMMON STOCK

          In case at any time or from time to time the Company shall take any
action in respect of its Common Stock, other than any action described in this
Section 4, which would have a materially adverse effect upon the rights of
Holder, the number of shares of Common Stock and/or the purchase price thereof
shall be adjusted in such manner as may be equitable in the circumstances, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

4.6  CERTAIN LIMITATIONS

          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company agrees
not to enter into any transaction which, by reason of any adjustment hereunder,
would cause the Current Warrant Price to be less than the par value per share of
Common Stock.

5.  NOTICES TO HOLDER

5.1  NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS

          Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant
is exercisable, or whenever the price at which a share of such Common Stock may

Section 4, the Company shall forthwith prepare a certificate to be executed by
the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail,
the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was

(a)  the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the
     purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, or

Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be
sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder
appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section
14.2.

6.  NO IMPAIRMENT

          The Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of
securities or other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
against impairment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor
upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all
such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use its best efforts to obtain all
such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body
having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform
its obligations under this Warrant.

          Upon the request of Holder, the Company will at any time during the
period this Warrant is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in form satisfactory
to Holder, the continuing validity of this Warrant and the obligations of the
Company hereunder.

7.  RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK

          From and after the Closing Date, the Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available for issuance upon the exercise of Warrants such
number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be
sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants.  All
shares of Common Stock which shall be so issuable, when issued upon exercise of
any Warrant and payment therefor in accordance with the terms of such Warrant,
shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and not
subject to preemptive rights.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

          Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the
Current Warrant Price below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall take any
corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of such Common Stock at
such adjusted Current Warrant Price.

          Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Current Warrant Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or
exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public
regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

8.  TAKING OF RECORD; STOCK AND WARRANT TRANSFER BOOKS

          In the case of all dividends or other distributions by the Company to
the holders of its Common Stock with respect to which any provision of Section 4
refers to the taking of record of such holders, the Company will in each case
take such a record and will take such record as of the close of business on a
Business Day.  The Company will not at any time, except upon dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company, close its stock transfer books or
Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise or
transfer of any Warrant.

9.  RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY

          The Warrants and the Warrant Stock shall not be transferred,
hypothecated or assigned before satisfaction of the conditions specified in this
Section 9, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Transfer of any Warrant or
any Warrant Stock.  Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by
the provisions of this Section 9.

9.1  RESTRICTIVE LEGEND

(a)  Holder, by accepting this Warrant and any Warrant Stock agrees that this
     Warrant and the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise hereof may not be
     assigned or otherwise transferred unless and until (i) the Company has
     received an opinion of counsel for Holder that such securities may be sold
     pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act or (ii)
     a registration statement relating to such securities has been filed by the
     Company and declared effective by the Commission.

          Each certificate for Warrant Stock issuable hereunder shall bear a
legend as follows until such securities have been sold pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act:

          "THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
          1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY
          STATE, AND ARE BEING OFFERED AND SOLD

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

          PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
          SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
          TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
          UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM
          THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR SUCH OTHER
          LAWS."


(b)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, the Warrant shall be
     stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following
     form:

          "THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED
          HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
          AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN VIOLATION OF SUCH ACT, THE
          RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER OR THE PROVISIONS OF THIS COMMON
          STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT."

9.2  NOTICE OF PROPOSED TRANSFERS

          Prior to any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Warrants or any
shares of Restricted Common Stock, the Holder shall give ten days' prior written
notice (a "TRANSFER NOTICE") to the Company of Holder's intention to effect such
Transfer, describing the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer, and
obtain from counsel to Holder who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, an opinion that the proposed Transfer of such Warrants or such
Restricted Common Stock may be effected without registration under the
Securities Act.  After receipt of the Transfer Notice and opinion, the Company
shall, within five days thereof, notify the Holder as to whether such opinion is
reasonably satisfactory and, if so, such holder shall thereupon be entitled to
Transfer such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock, in accordance with the
terms of the Transfer Notice.  Each certificate, if any, evidencing such shares
of Restricted Common Stock issued upon such Transfer shall bear the restrictive
legend set forth in Section 9.1(a), and the Warrant issued upon such Transfer
shall bear the restrictive legend set forth in Section 9.1(b), unless in the
opinion of such counsel such legend is not required in order to ensure
compliance with the Securities Act.  Holder shall not be entitled to Transfer
such Warrants or such Restricted Common Stock until receipt of notice from the
Company under this Section 9.2 that such opinion is reasonably satisfactory.

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

9.3  REQUIRED REGISTRATION

          Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Registration Rights
Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission not later than
the 30th day after the Closing Date, a Registration Statement relating to the
offer and sale of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and
shall use its best efforts to cause the Commission to declare such Registration
Statement effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable but no
later than 150 days after the Closing Date.

9.4  TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS

          Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 9, the
restrictions imposed by this Section upon the transferability of the Warrants,
the Warrant Stock and the Restricted Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of the Warrants) and the legend requirements of Section 9.1 shall
terminate as to any particular Warrant or share of Warrant Stock or Restricted
Common Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) (i)
when and so long as such security shall have been effectively registered under
the Securities Act and disposed of pursuant thereto or (ii) when the Company
shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that
such shares may be transferred without registration thereof under the Securities
Act.  Whenever the restrictions imposed by Section 9 shall terminate as to this
Warrant, as hereinabove provided, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive
from the Company upon written request of the Holder, at the expense of the
Company, a new Warrant bearing the following legend in place of the restrictive
legend set forth hereon:

          "THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY OF THE WITHIN WARRANT CONTAINED
          IN SECTION 9 HEREOF TERMINATED ON __________, _____, AND ARE OF NO
          FURTHER FORCE AND EFFECT."

All Warrants issued upon registration of transfer, division or combination of,
or in substitution for, any Warrant or Warrants entitled to bear such legend
shall have a similar legend endorsed thereon.  Whenever the restrictions imposed
by this Section shall terminate as to any share of Restricted Common Stock, as
hereinabove provided, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the
Company, at the Company's expense, a new certificate representing such Common
Stock not bearing the restrictive legend set forth in Section 9.1(a).

9.5  LISTING ON SECURITIES EXCHANGE

          If the Company shall list any shares of Common Stock on any securities
exchange or quotation system, it will, at its expense, list thereon, maintain
and, when necessary, increase such listing of, all shares of Common Stock issued
or, to the extent permissible under the applicable securities exchange rules,
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant so long as any shares of Common Stock
shall be so listed during any such Exercise Period.

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

10.  SUPPLYING INFORMATION

          The Company shall cooperate with Holder in supplying such information
as may be reasonably necessary for Holder to complete and file any information
reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission as a condition
to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act for the sale of any
Warrant or Restricted Common Stock.

11.  LOSS OR MUTILATION

          Upon receipt by the Company from Holder of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (it being
understood that the written agreement of the Holder shall be sufficient
indemnity), and in case of mutilation upon surrender and cancellation hereof,
the Company will execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor
to Holder; provided, in the case of mutilation no indemnity shall be required if
this Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for
cancellation.

12.  OFFICE OF THE COMPANY

          As long as any of the Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall
maintain an office or agency (which may be the principal executive offices of
the Company) where the Warrants may be presented for exercise, registration of
transfer, division or combination as provided in this Warrant.

13.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

          No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by Holder to
purchase shares of Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or
privileges of Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the
purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether
such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

14.  MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 NONWAIVER AND EXPENSES

          No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right
hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or
otherwise prejudice Holder's rights, powers or remedies.  If the Company fails
to make, when due, any payments provided for hereunder, or fails to comply with
any other provision of this Warrant, the Company shall pay to Holder such
amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of appellate
proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or
in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

14.3  INDEMNIFICATION

any kind which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Holder in
any manner relating to or arising out of any failure by the Company to perform
or observe in any material respect any of its covenants, agreements,
undertakings or obligations set forth in this Warrant; provided, however, that
the Company will not be liable hereunder to the extent that any liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims,

<PAGE>

final nonappealable judgment by a court to have resulted from Holder's gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in its capacity as a stockholder or

damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a

waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law
would be adequate.

14.5  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
successors of the Company and the successors and assigns of Holder.  The

from time to time of this Warrant and, with respect to Section 9 hereof, holders
of Warrant Stock, and shall be enforceable by any such Holder or holder of
Warrant Stock.

14.6  AMENDMENT

          This Warrant and all other Warrants may be modified or amended or the
provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and Holder.

14.7  SEVERABILITY

          Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted
in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any
provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable
law, such provision shall only be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition
or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Warrant.

14.8  HEADINGS

          The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference
only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
