            "Exercise Notice" shall mean, with respect to any exercise (in whole
or in part) of this Warrant the exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly

            "Exercise Period" shall mean the period beginning on the October 25,

Warrant.

            Section 2. Exercise; Cashless Exercise.

part (but not as to a fractional share of Common Stock), at any time and from
time to time during the Exercise Period, by the Warrant Holder by (i) the
surrender of this Warrant, the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price
to the Company at the address set forth in Section 14 hereof or (ii) the
delivery by facsimile of an executed and completed Exercise Notice to the
Company and delivery to the Company within five Trading Days thereafter of this
Warrant, the original Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price.

            (b) Payment of Aggregate Exercise Price. Subject to paragraph (c)
below, payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made by check or bank
draft payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer to an account
designated by the Company. If the amount of the payment received by the Company
is less than the Aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Holder will be notified
of the deficiency and shall make payment in that amount within five Trading Days
of such notice. In the event the payment exceeds the Aggregate Exercise Price,
the Company will refund the excess to the Warrant Holder within three Trading
Days of both the receipt of such payment and the knowledge of such excess.

            (c) Cashless Exercise. As an alternative to payment of the Aggregate
Exercise Price in accordance with Section 2(b), the Warrant Holder may elect to
effect a cashless exercise by so indicating on the Exercise Notice and including
a calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such
exercise in accordance with the terms hereof (a "Cashless Exercise"). In the
event of a Cashless Exercise, the Warrant Holder shall surrender this Warrant
and that number of shares of Common Stock determined by (i) multiplying the
number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised by the Per
Share Warrant Value and (ii) dividing the product by the Trade Price of one
share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Exercise
Date.

            (d) Replacement Warrant. In the event that the Warrant is not
exercised in full, the number of Warrant Shares shall be reduced by the number
of such Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercised, and the Company, at
its expense, shall forthwith issue and deliver to the Warrant Holder a new
Warrant of like tenor in the name of the Warrant Holder or as the Warrant Holder
may request, reflecting such adjusted number of Warrant Shares.

            Section 3. Delivery of Stock Certificates.

            (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant, as soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any
event within five Trading Days thereafter, the Company at its expense
(including, without limitation, the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes)
will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Warrant Holder, or
as the Warrant Holder may lawfully direct, a certificate or certificates for the
number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares to which
the Warrant Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, together with any other
stock or other securities or property (including cash, where applicable) to
which the Warrant Holder is entitled upon such exercise in accordance with the
provisions hereof; provided, however, that any such delivery to a location
outside of the United States shall also be made within five Trading Days after
the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part.

            (b) This Warrant may not be exercised as to fractional shares of
Common Stock. In the event that the exercise of this Warrant, in full or in
part, would result in the right to acquire any fractional share of Common Stock,
then in such event such fractional share shall be considered a whole share of
Common Stock and shall be added to the number of Warrant Shares issuable to the
Warrant Holder upon exercise of this Warrant.

            Section 4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company.

            (a) The Company shall take all necessary action and proceedings as
may be required and permitted by applicable law, rule and regulation for the
legal and valid issuance of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to the Warrant
Holder.

            (b) At all times during the Exercise Period, the Company shall take
all steps reasonably necessary and within its control to insure that the Common
Stock remains listed or quoted on the Principal Exchange.

            (c) The Warrant Shares, when issued in accordance with the terms
hereof, will be duly authorized and, when paid for or issued in accordance with
the terms hereof, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

            (d) The Company has authorized and reserved for issuance to the
Warrant Holder the requisite number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
pursuant to this Warrant. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep
available, solely for issuance and delivery as Warrant Shares hereunder, such
shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable as Warrant Shares,
and shall accordingly adjust the number of such shares of Common Stock promptly
upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 4 hereof.

            Section 5. Adjustment of the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price and,
accordingly, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant,
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain
events as follows:

            (a) Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger; Mandatory Share
Exchange; Sale Transfer or Lease of Assets. If the Company, at any time while
this Warrant is unexpired and not exercised in full, (i) reclassifies or changes
its Outstanding Capital Shares (other than a change in par value, or from par
value to no par value per share, or from no par value per share to par value or
as a result of a subdivision or combination of outstanding securities issuable
upon exercise of the Warrant) or (ii) consolidates, merges or effects a
mandatory share exchange with another corporation (other than a merger or
mandatory share exchange with another corporation in which the Company is a
continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or
change, other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value per
share, or from no par value per share to par value, or (iii) sells, transfers or
leases all or substantially all of its assets, then in any such event the
Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall,
without payment by the Warrant Holder of any additional consideration therefor,
amend this Warrant or issue a new Warrant providing that the Warrant Holder
shall have rights not less favorable to the Warrant Holder than those then
applicable to this Warrant and to receive upon exercise under such amendment of
this Warrant or new Warrant, in lieu of each share of Common Stock theretofore
issuable upon exercise of the Warrant hereunder, the kind and amount of shares
of stock, other securities, money or property receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, mandatory share exchange,
lease, sale or transfer by the holder of one share of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrant had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, mandatory share exchange or
sale or transfer, and an appropriate provision for the foregoing shall be made
by the Company as part of any such event. Such amended Warrant or new Warrant
shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The provisions of
this Section 5(a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
changes, consolidations, mergers, mandatory share exchanges, sales, transfers
and leases.

            (b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares; Stock Dividends. If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is unexpired and not exercised in full,
shall (x) subdivide its Common Stock, (y) combine its Common Stock or (z) pay a
dividend or other distribution in its Capital Shares, then the Exercise Price
shall be adjusted, as of the date the Company shall take a record of the holders
of its Capital Shares for the purpose of effecting such subdivision, combination
or dividend or other distribution (or if no such record is taken, as of the
effective date of such subdivision, combination, dividend or other
distribution), to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, dividend or other
distribution by a fraction:

            (i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of Outstanding
      Capital Shares immediately prior to such subdivision, combination,
      dividend or other distribution, and

            (ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of
      Outstanding Capital Shares immediately after such subdivision,
      combination, dividend or other distribution. The provisions of this
      Section 5(b) shall not apply under any of the circumstances for which a
      adjustment is made pursuant to Section 5(a).

            (c) Liquidating Dividends, Etc. If the Company, at any time while
this Warrant is unexpired and not exercised in full, makes a distribution of its
assets or evidences of indebtedness to the holders of its Capital Shares as a
dividend in liquidation or by way of return of capital or other than as a
dividend payable out of earnings or surplus legally available for dividends
under applicable law or any distribution to such holders made in respect of the
sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets (other than under the
circumstances provided for in the foregoing subsections (a) and (b) while an
exercise is pending, then the Warrant Holder shall be entitled to receive upon
such exercise of the Warrant in addition to the Warrant Shares receivable in
connection therewith, and without payment of any consideration other than the
Exercise Price, an amount in cash equal to the value of such distribution per
Capital Share multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that, on the record
date for such distribution, are issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant, and
an appropriate provision therefor shall be made by the Company as part of any
such distribution. No further adjustment shall be made following any event that
causes a subsequent adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable. The
value of a distribution that is paid in other than cash shall be determined in
good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

            (d) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the
Exercise Price pursuant to any provisions of this Section 5, the number of
Warrant Shares issuable hereunder at the option of the Warrant Holder shall be
calculated, to the nearest one hundredth of a whole share, multiplying the
number of Warrant Shares issuable prior to an adjustment by a fraction:

            (i) the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price before any
      adjustment pursuant to this Section 5; and

            (ii) the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price after such
      adjustment.

            (e) Notice of Certain Actions; Notice of Adjustments.

            (i) In the event the Company shall, at a time while the Warrant is
      unexpired and outstanding, take any action pursuant to subsections (a)
      through (d) of this Section 5 that may result in an adjustment of the
      Exercise Price, the Company shall notify the Warrant Holder of such action
      10 days in advance of its effective date in order to afford to the Warrant
      Holder an opportunity to exercise the Warrant prior to such action
      becoming effective.

            (ii) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or number of
      Warrant Shares shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Company
      shall promptly deliver by facsimile, with the original delivered by
      express courier service in accordance with Section 14 hereof, a
      certificate, which shall be signed by the Company's President or a Vice
      President and by its Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer or its Secretary or
      Assistant Secretary, setting forth in reasonable detail the event
      requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by
      which such adjustment was calculated (including a description of the basis
      on which the Company's Board of Directors made any determination
      hereunder), and the Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares
      purchasable at that Exercise Price after giving effect to such adjustment.

            Section 6. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws or through any reorganization, transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
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 action as may
be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Warrant Holder
hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a)
will not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable
therefor on such exercise, and (b) will take all such action as may be
reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares on the exercise of
this Warrant.

            Section 7. Rights As Stockholder. Prior to exercise of this Warrant
and except as provided in Section 5 hereof, the Warrant Holder shall not be
entitled to any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the
Warrant Shares, including (without limitation) the right to vote such shares,
receive dividends or other distributions thereon or be notified of stockholder
meetings. However, in the event of any taking by the Company of a record of the
holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders
thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or
other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire
any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to
receive any other right, the Company shall mail to each Warrant Holder, at least
ten days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on
which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right.

            Section 8. Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of the Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction of the Warrant, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement or security
reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any
such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at
its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like
tenor.

            Section 9. Restricted Securities.

            (a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Warrant has been issued
in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
in reliance upon the provisions of Section 4(2) promulgated by the SEC under the
Securities Act. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant may not be resold except pursuant to an effective registration
statement or an exemption to the registration requirements of the Securities Act
and applicable state laws.

            (b) Legend. Any replacement Warrants issued pursuant to Section 2
hereof and any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise hereof, shall bear the legend
set forth at the head of this Warrant:

Such legend shall only be removed in the event that the security which would
otherwise bear such legend is registered pursuant to the Securities Act and the
party seeking to remove such legend provides the Company with an opinion of
counsel, which opinion shall be satisfactory to the Company, stating the removal
of such legend is appropriate.

            (c) No Other Legend or Stock Transfer Restrictions. No legend other
than the one specified in Section 9(b) has been or shall be placed on the share
certificates representing the Warrant Shares and no instructions or "stop
transfer orders," so called, "stock transfer restrictions" or other restrictions
have been or shall be given to the Company's transfer agent with respect thereto
other than as expressly set forth in this Section 9.

            (d) Assignment. This Warrant may not be sold, transferred, assigned,
or hypothecated in whole or in part, provided, however, that the Warrant Holder
may transfer or assign this Warrant if the conditions of Section 9(a) above
regarding registration or exemption have been satisfied, and such transfer or
assignment is made (i) to one or more officers, members, or employees of Gruntal
(or the officers, members or employees of any such member); (ii) to a successor
to a Warrant Holder or the officers, members or employees of such successor;
(iii) to a purchaser of substantially all of the assets of a Warrant Holder; or
(iv) by operation of law, and provided further that no transfer or assignment of
this Warrant shall be valid unless the transferring or assigning Warrant Holder
delivers a written notice to the Company substantially in the form of the
assignment form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Assignment Notice")
indicating the person or persons to whom this Warrant shall be transferred or
assigned and the respective number of warrants to be assigned to each assignee.

            (e) Warrant Holder's Compliance. Nothing in this Section 9 shall
affect in any way The Warrant Holder's obligations under any agreement to comply
with all applicable securities laws upon resale of the Common Stock.

            Section 10. Demand Registration.

            (a) Demand Registration. Subject to the conditions in this Warrant,
if the Company shall receive a written request from the Warrant Holder that the
Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the
registration of all or part of the Warrant Shares now or hereafter held by the
Warrant Holder, then the Company shall, subject to the limitations in this
Warrant, use commercially reasonable efforts to effect, as soon as practicable,
the registration under the Securities Act of all Warrant Shares that the Holder
requests to be registered.

            (b) Underwriting. If the Warrant Holder intends to distribute the
Warrant Shares covered by its request by means of an underwriting, the Warrant
Holder shall so advise the Company as a part of its request made pursuant to
this Section 10 and the Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting by the Warrant Holder (which underwriter or underwriters shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Company).

            (c) Limitations. The Company shall not be required to effect a
registration pursuant to this Section 10:

            (i) after the Company has affected one registration pursuant to this
      Section 10, and such registration has been declared or ordered effective;

            (ii) if the Company shall furnish to the Warrant Holder requesting a
      registration pursuant to this Section 10, a certificate signed by the
      Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board
      of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the
      Company and its shareholders for such registration to be effected at such
      time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such filing
      for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the request of the
      Holder; or

            (iii) unless such registration is for the resale of all the Warrant
      Shares.

            (d) Agreement to Indemnify. By delivering any notice to the Company
requesting that the Company register shares pursuant to this Section 10, the
Warrant Holder delivering such notice shall be deemed to consent to the
indemnification provisions set forth in Section 12(d).

            Section 11. Piggyback Registration.

            (a) Piggyback Registration. The Company shall notify the Warrant
Holder in writing at least 30 days prior to the filing of any registration
statement under the Securities Act for purposes of a public offering of
securities of the Company (including, but not limited to, registration
statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but
excluding registration statements relating to employee benefit plans or with
respect to corporate reorganizations or other transactions under Rule 145 of the
Securities Act) and will afford the Warrant Holder an opportunity to include in
such registration statement all or part of the Warrant Shares. If the Warrant
Holder desires to include in any such registration statement all or any part of
the Warrant Shares, it shall notify the Company in writing within 15 days after
the above-described notice from the Company. Such notice shall state the
intended method of disposition of the Warrant Shares by such Warrant Holder. If
the Warrant Holder decides not to include all of the Warrant Shares in any
registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Warrant Holder
shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include Warrant Shares that
were excluded from prior Registration statements in any subsequent registration
statement or registration statements as may be filed by the company with respect
to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein.

            (b) Underwriting. If the registration statement under which the
Company gives notice under this Section 11 is for an underwritten offering, the
Company shall so advise the Holder. In such event, the right of the Warrant
Holder to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 11 shall be
conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting, the inclusion
of such Warrant Holder's Warrant Shares in the underwriting to the extent
provided herein and the Warrant Holder entering into any underwriting agreement
in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section
11, if the underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors require a
limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of shares that
may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated, subject to Section 12,
first, to the company; second, to the Warrant Holder and to any shareholder of
the company (other than the Warrant Holder) on a pro rata basis. No such
reduction shall reduce the securities being offered by the Company for its own
account to be included in the registration and underwriting.

            (c) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the
right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this
Section 11 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any
Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. the expenses of
such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company.

            (d) Agreement to Indemnify. By delivering any notice to the Company
requesting that the Company register shares pursuant to this Section 11, the
Warrant Holder delivering such notice shall be deemed to consent to the
indemnification provisions set forth in Section 12(d).


            Section 12. General Limitation on Registration Rights.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, this Warrant shall not:

            (a) obligate the Company to maintain the effectiveness of any
registration statement registering Warrant shares for a period longer than 90
days after the date on which the Warrant Holder is able to freely trade the
Warrant Shares being registered pursuant to such registration statement;

            (b) obligate the Company to effect, or include Warrant Shares in, a
registration after October 24, 2006;

            (c) obligate the Company to effect a registration statement with
respect to Warrant Shares previously registered pursuant to an effective
registration statement but which were not sold by the Warrant Holder; or

            (d) confer any registration rights to the Warrant Holder where such
rights would conflict with any rights held by (i) Crescent International Ltd.
("Crescent") pursuant to agreements between the Company and Crescent entered
into on or after June 9, 2000 or (ii) Tyco Electronics Corporation.

            Section 13. Indemnification.

            (a) Indemnification by the Company. In the event that, pursuant to
this Warrant, any Warrant Shares are included in a registration statement, to
the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the
Warrant Holder, its directors and officers, and any underwriter (as defined in
the Securities Act) for the Warrant Holder and each person, if any, who controls
the Warrant Holder or such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act,
from and against, and will reimburse (from time to time upon request) the
Warrant Holder and its directors and officers and each such underwriter and
controlling person with respect to, any and all loss, damage, liability, cost
and expense to which the Warrant Holder or any such underwriter or controlling
person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such
losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses are caused by any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such
registration statement, any prospectus contained therein 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, in light of the circumstances in which
they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, damage, liability,
cost or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with
information furnished by such indemnified person in writing specifically for use
in the preparation thereof.

            (b) Indemnification by Warrant Holder. To the extent permitted by
law, the Warrant Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of
its directors and each of its officers who has signed the registration
statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of
the Securities Act, any underwriter, any other selling security holder in such
registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or
other selling security holder, with respect to, any and all loss, damage,
liability, cost and expense to which the Company or any such underwriter or
controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses arise out of or

            (c) Limit on Indemnification. provided, that in no event shall any
indemnity by the Company or the Warrant Holder under this Section 12(d) exceed
the net proceeds received by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant.

            (d) Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by a party
entitled to indemnification under this Section 12(d) of notice of the
commencement of any action involving the subject matter of the foregoing
indemnity provisions, such indemnified party will, if a claim thereof is to be
made against the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions of this Section
12(d), promptly notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but
the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any
liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than hereunder.
In case such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the
indemnifying party promptly of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
shall have the right 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 reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party;
provided, however, that if the defendants in any action include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it
and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party, or there is a conflict of interest which
would prevent counsel for the indemnifying party from also representing the
indemnified party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to
select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on behalf
of such indemnified party or parties. After notice from the indemnifying party
to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 12(d) for any legal or other expense subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with defense thereof other than
reasonable costs if investigation, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have
employed counsel in accordance with the proviso of the preceding sentence, (ii)
the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time
after the notice of the commencement of the action, or (iii) the indemnifying
party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the
expense of the indemnifying party.

            Section 14. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents,
approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in
