                                      B

                                    issued to the Holder.

                           Y =      the number of shares of Common Stock
                                    purchasable upon exercise of all of the
                                    Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant
                                    is being exercised, the portion of the
                                    Warrant being exercised.

                           A =      the Warrant Price.

                           B =      the Per Share Market Value of one share of
                                    Common Stock.

                  (d) ISSUANCE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES. In the event of any
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with and
subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) certificates for the shares of
Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and
delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5)
Trading Days after such exercise or, at the request of the Holder (provided that

the Warrant Stock is then in effect), issued and delivered to the Depository
Trust Company ("DTC") account on the Holder's behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission System ("DWAC") within a reasonable time, not exceeding five
(5) Trading Days after such exercise, and the Holder hereof shall be deemed for
all purposes to be the holder of the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of
the date of such exercise and (ii) unless this Warrant has expired, a new
Warrant representing the number of shares of Warrant Stock, if any, with respect

Warrant may be transferred by a Holder without the consent of the Issuer. If

subsection (g) of this Section 2, this Warrant may be transferred on the books

upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed
upon such transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable at the principal office of the
Issuer for Warrants for the purchase of the same aggregate number of shares of
Warrant Stock, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase such number

such exchange. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the
Original Issue Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the
number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant hereto.

                  (f) CONTINUING RIGHTS OF HOLDER. The Issuer will, at the time
of or at any time after each exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the
Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing
obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall
continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant, PROVIDED that if any such Holder shall fail to make any such request,
the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford
such rights to such Holder.

                  (g) COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.

                           (i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof,
         acknowledges that this Warrant or the shares of Warrant Stock to be
         issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder's
         own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for
         investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise
         dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued
         upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration
         statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act
         and any applicable state securities laws.

                           (ii) Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below,
         this Warrant and all certificates representing shares of Warrant Stock
         issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend
         in substantially the following form:

                  THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON
                  EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
                  ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR ANY STATE
                  SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
                  DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND
                  UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR RAPTOR NETWORKS
                  TECHNOLOGY, INC. SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF ITS COUNSEL
                  THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
                  AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS
                  IS NOT REQUIRED.

<PAGE>

                           (iii) The Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or
         certificates representing any of the Warrant Stock, without the legend
         set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any
         such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Issuer
         describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the
         Issuer may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will
         not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received an
         opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect
         that the registration of such securities under the Securities Act is
         not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a
         registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed
         disposition has been filed by the Issuer with the Securities and
         Exchange Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act,
         (iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to
         the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the
         Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the
         Holder provides the Issuer with reasonable assurances that such
         security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and
         (b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably
         satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration or
         qualification under the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state is
         not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii)
         compliance with applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws has been
         effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer
         will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) business
         days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 2(g), the
         Issuer will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable
         state securities or "blue sky" laws, but shall in no event be required,
         (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then
         qualified, or (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to
         the general service of process in any state where it is not then
         subject. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(g)
         shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other
         restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this
         Warrant.

                  (h) In no event may the Holder exercise this Warrant in whole
or in part unless the Holder is an "accredited investor" as defined in
Regulation D under the Securities Act.

         3. STOCK FULLY PAID; RESERVATION AND LISTING OF SHARES; COVENANTS.

                  (a) STOCK FULLY PAID. The Issuer represents, warrants,
covenants and agrees that all shares of Warrant Stock which may be issued upon
the exercise of this Warrant or otherwise hereunder will, upon issuance, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all
taxes, liens and charges created by or through Issuer. The Issuer further
covenants and agrees that during the period within which this Warrant may be
exercised, the Issuer will at all times have authorized and reserved for the
purpose of the issue upon exercise of this Warrant a sufficient number of shares
of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this Warrant.

                                       4

<PAGE>

                  (b) RESERVATION. If any shares of Common Stock required to be
reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided
hereunder require registration or qualification with any governmental authority
under any federal or state law before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer
will in good faith use its best efforts as expeditiously as possible at its
expense to cause such shares to be duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer
shall list any shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange or market it
will, at its expense, list thereon, maintain and increase when necessary such
listing, of, all shares of Warrant Stock from time to time issued upon exercise
of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder, and, to the extent
permissible under the applicable securities exchange rules, all unissued shares
of Warrant Stock which are at any time issuable hereunder, so long as any shares
of Common Stock shall be so listed. The Issuer will also so list on each
securities exchange or market, and will maintain such listing of, any other
securities which the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon
the exercise of this Warrant if at the time any securities of the same class
shall be listed on such securities exchange or market by the Issuer.

                  (c) COVENANTS. The Issuer shall not by any action including,
without limitation, amending the Articles of Incorporation or the by-laws of the
Issuer, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other 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 the Holder hereof against dilution (to the extent
specifically provided herein) or impairment. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Issuer will (i) not permit the par value, if any, of its
Common Stock to exceed the then effective Warrant Price, (ii) not amend or
modify any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or by-laws of the Issuer
in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the
Warrants, (iii) take all such action as may be reasonably necessary in order
that the Issuer may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and
restrictions (other than as provided herein) upon the exercise of this Warrant,
and (iv) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or
consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be
reasonably necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this
Warrant.

                  (d) LOSS, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OF WARRANTS. Upon receipt of
evidence satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss,
theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory to the
Issuer or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation
of such Warrant, the Issuer will make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the
right to purchase the same number of shares of Common Stock.

         4. ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT PRICE AND WARRANT SHARE NUMBER. In the event
that the warrants offered in the Qualified Financing is at an exercise price per
share that is less than $.60, there will be a one-time adjustment to the Warrant
Price, where the exercise price will be reduced to the lowest exercise price of
the warrants issued in Qualified Financing. Pursuant to the one-time price
adjustment in connection to the Qualified Financing, the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, and 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 Issuer shall
give the Holder notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment
pursuant to this Section 4 in accordance with Section 5.

                  (a) RECAPITALIZATION, REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION,
CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR SALE.

                           (i) In case the Issuer after the Original Issue Date
         shall do any of the following (each, a "TRIGGERING Event"): (a)
         consolidate with or merge into any other Person and the Issuer shall
         not be the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or
         merger, or (b) permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge
         into the Issuer and the Issuer shall be the continuing or surviving
         Person but, in connection with such consolidation or merger, any
         Capital Stock of the Issuer shall be changed into or exchanged for
         Securities of any other Person or cash or any other property, or (c)
         transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any
         other Person, or (d) effect a capital reorganization or
         reclassification of its Capital Stock, then, and in the case of each
         such Triggering Event, proper provision shall be made so that, upon the
         basis and the terms and in the manner provided in this Warrant, the
         Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled upon the exercise hereof at
         any time after the consummation of such Triggering Event, to the extent
         this Warrant is not exercised prior to such Triggering Event, to
         receive at the Warrant Price in effect at the time immediately prior to
         the consummation of such Triggering Event in lieu of the Common Stock
         issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant prior to such Triggering
         Event, the Securities, cash and property to which such Holder would
         have been entitled upon the consummation of such Triggering Event if
         such Holder had exercised the rights represented by this Warrant
         immediately prior thereto, subject to adjustments (subsequent to such
         corporate action) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments
         provided for elsewhere in this Section 4.

                           (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained in this
         Warrant to the contrary, the Issuer will not effect any Triggering
         Event if, prior to the consummation thereof, each Person (other than
         the Issuer) which may be required to deliver any Securities, cash or
         property upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall
         assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory
         to, the Holder of this Warrant, (A) the obligations of the Issuer under
         this Warrant (and if the Issuer shall survive the consummation of such
         Triggering Event, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall
         not release the Issuer from, any continuing obligations of the Issuer
         under this Warrant) and (B) the obligation to deliver to such Holder
         such shares of Securities, cash or property as, in accordance with the
         foregoing provisions of this subsection (a), such Holder shall be
         entitled to receive, and such Person shall have similarly delivered to
         such Holder an opinion of counsel for such Person, which counsel shall
         be reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, stating that this Warrant
         shall thereafter continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof
         (including, without limitation, all of the provisions of this
         subsection (a)) shall be applicable to the Securities, cash or property
         which such Person may be required to deliver upon any exercise of this
         Warrant or the exercise of any rights pursuant hereto.

                  (b) STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS. If at any
time the Issuer shall:

                           (i) 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,

                           (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock
         into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or

                           (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock
         into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock,

then (1) 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 (2) the Warrant Price then in
effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect
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 of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after
such adjustment.

                  (c) CERTAIN OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. If at any time the Issuer
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:

                           (i) cash (other than a cash dividend payable out of
         earnings or earned surplus legally available for the payment of
         dividends under the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the
         Issuer),

                           (ii) any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of
         stock of any class or any other securities or property of any nature
         whatsoever (other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents or Additional
         Shares of Common Stock), or

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

then (1) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
adjustment multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Per
Share Market Value of Common Stock at the date of taking such record and (B) the
denominator of which shall be such Per Share Market Value minus the amount
allocable to one share of Common Stock of any such cash so distributable and of
the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Issuer and supported by an opinion from an investment banking firm of recognized
national standing acceptable to the Holder) of any and all such evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or other


                                       7

<PAGE>

subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (2) the Warrant Price then
in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect
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 of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after
such adjustment. 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 Issuer to the holders of its Common Stock of such
shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4(c) 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(b).

                  (d) ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.

                           (i) n the event the Issuer shall at any time
         following the Original Issue Date issue any Additional Shares of Common
         Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (a)
         through (c) of this Section 4), at a price per share less than the
         Warrant Price then in effect or without consideration, then the Warrant
         Price upon each such issuance shall be adjusted to that price
         determined by multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a
         fraction:

                                    (A) the numerator of which shall be equal to
                  the sum of (x) the number of shares of Outstanding Common
                  Stock immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional
                  Shares of Common Stock PLUS (y) the number of shares of Common
                  Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which the aggregate
                  consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares
                  of Common Stock so issued would purchase at a price per share
                  equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, and

                                    (B) the denominator of which shall be equal
                  to the number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock
                  immediately after the issuance of such Additional Shares of
                  Common Stock.

                           (ii) No adjustment of the number of shares of Common
         Stock for which this Warrant shall be exercisable shall be made under
         paragraph (i) of Section 4(d) upon the issuance of any Additional
         Shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any
         Common Stock Equivalents, if any such adjustment shall previously have
         been made upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents or upon
         the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor pursuant to
         Sections 4(e) or 4(f), or in connection with any Permitted Issuances.

                  (e) ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS OR OTHER RIGHTS. If at any time the
Issuer shall take a record of the Holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell any warrants or options, whether or not immediately


                                       8

<PAGE>

exercisable, and the Warrant Consideration (hereafter defined) per share for
which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such warrant or option shall
be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such
issue or sale, then the Warrant Price then in effect immediately prior to the
time of such issue or sale, shall be adjusted to that price (rounded to the
nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Warrant Price by a fraction: (1) the
numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance or sale of such
warrants or options PLUS (B) the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to
the nearest whole share) which the Warrant Consideration multiplied by the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all
such warrants or options, would purchase at a price per share equal to the
Warrant Price then in effect, and (2) the denominator of which shall be equal to
the number of shares of Common Stock that would be outstanding assuming the
exercise or conversion of all such warrants and options. No adjustments of the
Warrant Price then in effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common
Stock or of such Common Stock Equivalents upon exercise of such warrants or
other rights or upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon such conversion
or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents. No adjustments of the Warrant
Price shall be required under this Section 4(e) in connection with any Permitted
Issuances.

                  (f) ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS. If at any time the
Issuer shall take a record of the Holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell, any Common Stock Equivalents, whether or not the
rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the
Common Stock Equivalent Consideration (hereafter defined) per share for which
Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be less than the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale,
then the Warrant Price then in effect immediately prior to the time of such
issue or sale, shall upon each such issuance or sale be adjusted to that price
(rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Warrant Price by a
fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A) the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance or sale
of such Common Stock Equivalents plus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock
(rounded to the nearest whole share) which the Common Stock Equivalent
Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise or conversion of all such Common Stock Equivalents, would purchase
at a price per share equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, and (2) the
denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that
would be outstanding assuming the exercise or conversion of all such Common
Stock Equivalents. No further adjustment of the Warrant Price then in effect
shall be made under this Section 4(f) upon the issuance of any Common Stock
Equivalents which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other
subscription or purchase rights therefor, if any such adjustment shall
previously have been made upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights
pursuant to Section 4(e). No further adjustments of the Warrant Price then in
effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion
or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents. No adjustments of the Warrant
Price shall be required under this Section 4(f) in connection with any Permitted
Issuances.

                  (g) SUPERSEDING ADJUSTMENT. If, at any time after any
adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall have been made pursuant
to Section 4(e) or Section 4(f) as the result of any issuance of warrants, other
rights or Common Stock Equivalents, and (i) such warrants or other rights, or
the right of conversion or exchange in such other Common Stock Equivalents,
shall expire, and all or a portion of such warrants or other rights, or the
right of conversion or exchange with respect to all or a portion of such other
Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be shall not have been exercised, or
(ii) the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable
pursuant to such Common Stock Equivalents, shall be increased solely by virtue
of provisions therein contained for an automatic increase in such consideration
per share upon the occurrence of a specified date or event, then for each
outstanding Warrant such previous adjustment shall be rescinded and annulled and
the Additional Shares of Common Stock which were deemed to have been issued by
virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded
and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such
computation. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in this Section 4(g)
above, there shall be a recomputation made of the effect of such Common Stock
Equivalents on the basis of: (i) treating the number of Additional Shares of
Common Stock or other property, if any, theretofore actually issued or issuable
pursuant to the previous exercise of any such warrants or other rights or any
such right of conversion or exchange, as having been issued on the date or dates
of any such exercise and for the consideration actually received and receivable
therefor, and (ii) treating any such Common Stock Equivalents which then remain
outstanding as having been granted or issued immediately after the time of such
increase of the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock or
other property are issuable under such Common Stock Equivalents; whereupon a new
adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made, which new
adjustment shall supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled.

                  (h) PURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK BY THE ISSUER. If the Issuer at
any time while this Warrant is outstanding shall, directly or indirectly through
a Subsidiary or otherwise, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of
Common Stock at a price per share greater than the Per Share Market Value, then
the Warrant Price upon each such purchase, redemption or acquisition shall be
adjusted to that price determined by multiplying such Warrant Price by a
fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such purchase, redemption or acquisition
minus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration for
the total number of such shares of Common Stock so purchased, redeemed or
acquired would purchase at the Per Share Market Value; and (ii) the denominator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such purchase, redemption or acquisition. For the purposes of this
subsection (h), the date as of which the Per Share Market Price shall be
computed shall be the earlier of (x) the date on which the Issuer shall enter
into a firm contract for the purchase, redemption or acquisition of such Common
Stock, or (y) the date of actual purchase, redemption or acquisition of such
Common Stock. For the purposes of this subsection (h), a purchase, redemption or
acquisition of a Common Stock Equivalent shall be deemed to be a purchase of the
underlying Common Stock, and the computation herein required shall be made on
the basis of the full exercise, conversion or exchange of such Common Stock
Equivalent on the date as of which such computation is required hereby to be
made, whether or not such Common Stock Equivalent is actually exercisable,
convertible or exchangeable on such date.

                  (i) 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 Warrant Price then in effect provided for in this Section 4:

                           (i) COMPUTATION OF CONSIDERATION. To the extent that
         any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents
         (or any warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued for cash
         consideration, the consideration received by the Issuer therefor shall
         be the amount of the cash received by the Issuer therefor, or, if such
         Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are
         offered by the Issuer for subscription, the subscription price, or, if
         such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are
         sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a
         subscription offering, the initial public offering price (in any such
         case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest or
         accrued dividends and without taking into account any compensation,
         discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Issuer for and in the
         underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance
         thereof). To the extent that such issuance shall be for a consideration
         other than cash, then, except as herein otherwise expressly provided,
         the amount of such consideration shall be deemed to be the fair value
         of such consideration at the time of such issuance as determined in
         good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer. The consideration
         for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any
         warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be
         the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such warrants or
         other rights divided by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
         upon the exercise of such warrant or right plus the additional
         consideration payable to the Issuer upon exercise of such warrant or
         other right for one share of Common Stock (together the "WARRANT
         CONSIDERATION"). The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common
         Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any Common Stock Equivalents
         shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such
         Common Stock Equivalent, divided by the number of shares of Common
         Stock issuable upon the conversion or other exercise of such Common
         Stock Equivalent, plus the additional consideration, if any, payable to
         the Issuer upon the exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in
         such Common Stock Equivalent for one share of Common Stock (together
         the "Common Stock Equivalent Consideration"). In case of the issuance
         at any time of any Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
         Equivalents in payment or satisfaction of any dividends upon any class
         of stock other than Common Stock, the Issuer shall be deemed to have
         received for such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
         Equivalents a consideration equal to the amount of such dividend so
         paid or satisfied.

                           (ii) 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, except that any
         adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
         Warrant is exercisable that would otherwise be required may be
         postponed (except in the case of a subdivision or combination of shares
         of the Common Stock, as provided for in Section 4(b)) up to, but not
         beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by itself or with
         other adjustments not previously made adds or subtracts less than one
         percent (1%) of the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
         exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any


                                       11

<PAGE>

         adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount
         (except as aforesaid) which is postponed shall be carried forward and
         made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments
         required by this Section 4 and not previously made, would result in a
         minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. 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.

                  (iii) FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. In computing adjustments under
         this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken
         into account to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share.

                  (iv) WHEN ADJUSTMENT NOT REQUIRED. If the Issuer 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.

                  (j) FORM OF WARRANT AFTER ADJUSTMENTS. The form of this
Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustments in the Warrant Price or
the number and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

                  (k) ESCROW OF WARRANT STOCK. If after any property becomes
distributable pursuant to this Section 4 by reason of the taking of any record
of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the occurrence of the event for
which such record is taken, and the Holder exercises this Warrant, any shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise by reason of such adjustment shall be deemed
the last shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised
(notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein) and such shares or
other property shall be held in escrow for the Holder by the Issuer to be issued
to the Holder upon and to the extent that the event actually takes place, upon
payment of the current Warrant Price. Notwithstanding any other provision to the
contrary herein, if the event for which such record was taken fails to occur or
is rescinded, then such escrowed shares shall be cancelled by the Issuer and
escrowed property returned.

         5. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the Warrant Price or Warrant Share
Number shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof (for purposes of this
Section 5, each an "adjustment"), the Issuer shall cause its Chief Financial
Officer to prepare and execute a certificate 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 Board made any determination hereunder), and the Warrant
Price and Warrant Share Number after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall
cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant
promptly after each adjustment. Any dispute between the Issuer and the Holder of
this Warrant with respect to the matters set forth in such certificate may at
the option of the Holder of this Warrant be submitted to one of the national
accounting firms currently known as the "big five" selected by the Holder,
PROVIDED that the Issuer shall have ten (10) days after receipt of notice from
such Holder of its selection of such firm to object thereto, in which case such
Holder shall select another such firm and the Issuer shall have no such right of


                                       12

<PAGE>

objection. The firm selected by the Holder of this Warrant as provided in the
preceding sentence shall be instructed to deliver a written opinion as to such
matters to the Issuer and such Holder within thirty (30) days after submission
to it of such dispute. Such opinion shall be final and binding on the parties
hereto.

         6. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Warrant Stock will be
issued in connection with and exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional
shares, the Issuer shall make a cash payment therefor equal in amount to the
product of the applicable fraction multiplied by the Per Share Market Value then
in effect.

         7. CALL. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuer
may at any time following the Original Issue Date call up to fifty percent (50%)
of this Warrant, and commencing two (2) years following the Original Issue Date
may call up to one hundred percent (100%) of this Warrant then still outstanding
by providing the Holder of this Warrant written notice pursuant to Section 13
(the "CALL NOTICE"); PROVIDED, THAT, in connection with any call by the Issuer
under this Section 7, (A) the Per Share Market Value of the Common Stock has
been greater than $2.50 for a period of ten (10) consecutive Trading Days
immediately prior to the date of delivery of the Call Notice (a "CALL NOTICE
PERIOD"); (B) a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for
the resale of the Warrant Stock and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") is then in effect and
has been effective, without lapse or suspension of any kind, for a period of
sixty (60) consecutive calendar days, (C) trading in the Common Stock shall not
have been suspended by the Securities and Exchange Commission or the OTC
Bulletin Board (or other exchange or market on which the Common Stock is
trading) and (D) the Issuer is in material compliance with the terms and
conditions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in
the Purchase Agreement); PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Registration Statement must
be effective from the date of delivery of the Call Notice until the date which
is the later of (i) the date the Holder exercises the Warrant pursuant to the
Call Notice and (ii) the 20th day after the Holder receives the Call Notice (the
"EARLY TERMINATION DATE"). The rights and privileges granted pursuant to this
Warrant with respect to the shares of Warrant Stock subject to the Call Notice
(the "CALLED WARRANT SHARES") shall expire on the Early Termination Date if this
Warrant is not exercised with respect to such Called Warrant Shares prior to
such Early Termination Date. In the event this Warrant is not exercised with
respect to the Called Warrant Shares, the Issuer shall remit to the Holder of
this Warrant (i) $.01 per Called Warrant Share and (ii) a new Warrant
representing the number of shares of Warrant Stock, if any, which shall not have
been subject to the Call Notice upon the Holder tendering to the Issuer the
applicable Warrant certificate.

         8. CERTAIN EXERCISE RESTRICTIONS.

                  (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Warrant, at no time may a Holder of this Warrant exercise this Warrant if the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such exercise would
cause the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Holder at such time to
exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock owned by such
Holder at such time, the number of shares of Common Stock which would result in
such Holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 4.9% of all of the
Common Stock outstanding at such time; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that upon the Holder
of this Warrant providing the Issuer with sixty-one (61) days notice (pursuant


                                       13

exercise of this Warrant, this Section 8(a) will be of no force or effect with
regard to all or a portion of the Warrant referenced in the Waiver Notice;
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that this provision shall be of no further force or effect
(i) during the sixty-one (61) days immediately preceding the expiration of the
term of this Warrant or (ii) upon the Holder's receipt of a Call Notice.

                  (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Warrant, at no time may a Holder of this Warrant exercise this Warrant if the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such exercise would
cause the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Holder at such time to
exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock owned by such
Holder at such time, the number of shares of Common Stock which would result in
such Holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 9.9% of all of the
Common Stock outstanding at such time; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that upon a holder of
this Warrant providing the Issuer with a Waiver Notice that such holder would
like to waive this Section 8(b) with regard to any or all shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, this Section 8(b) shall be of no force
or effect with regard to those shares of Warrant Stock referenced in the Waiver
Notice; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that this provision shall be of no further force or
effect (i) during the sixty-one (61) days immediately preceding the expiration
of the term of this Warrant or (ii) upon the Holder's receipt of a Call Notice.
