EXERCISE OF WARRANTS 

4.1                     
Method of Exercise of Warrants 

The right to purchase shares conferred by the Warrants may be
exercised by the Holder surrendering the Warrant Certificate representing same,
with a duly completed and executed subscription in the form attached hereto and
a bank draft or certified check payable to the Company for the purchase price
applicable at the time of surrender in respect of the shares subscribed for in
lawful money of the United States of America, to the Company at the address set
forth in, or from time to time specified by the Company pursuant to, Section
3.2. 

4.2                      Effect
of Exercise of Warrants 

	 	(a) 	
      Upon surrender and payment as aforesaid the shares so
      subscribed for will be deemed to have been issued and such person or
      persons will be deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record of
      such shares on the date of such surrender and payment, and such shares
      will be issued at the subscription price in effect on the date of such
      surrender and payment.

	 	 	 
	 	(b) 	
      Within ten business days after surrender and payment as
      aforesaid, the Company will forthwith cause to be delivered to the person
      or persons in whose name or names the shares so subscribed for are to be
      issued as specified in such subscription or mailed to him, her or them at
      his, her or their respective addresses specified in such subscription, a
      certificate or certificates for the appropriate number of shares not
      exceeding those which the Warrant Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant
      to the Warrant surrendered.



4.3                     
Subscription for Less Than Entitlement 

The Holder of any Warrant may subscribe for and purchase a
number of shares less than the number which the Holder is entitled to purchase
pursuant to the surrendered Warrant. In the event of any purchase of a number of
shares less than the number which can be purchased pursuant to a Warrant, the
Holder thereof upon exercise thereof will in addition be entitled to receive a
new Warrant in respect of the balance of the shares which the Holder is entitled
to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant and which are not then
purchased. 

4.4                      Warrants
for Fractions of Shares 

To the extent that the Holder of any Warrant is entitled to
receive on the exercise or partial exercise thereof a fraction of a share, such
right may be exercised in respect of such fraction only in combination with
another Warrant or other Warrants which in the aggregate entitle the Holder to
receive a whole number of such shares. 

4.5                     
Expiration of Warrants 

After the expiration of the period within which a Warrant is
exercisable, all rights thereunder will wholly cease and terminate and such
Warrant will be void and of no effect. 

4.6                     
Time of Essence 

Time will be of the essence hereof. 




- 4 - 

4.7                      Subscription
Price 

Each Warrant is exercisable at a price per share (the "Exercise
Price") of US$3.50. One (1) Warrant and the Exercise Price are required to
subscribe for each share during the term of the Warrants. 

4.8                     
Adjustment of Exercise Price 

	 	(a) 	
      The Exercise Price and the number of shares deliverable
      upon the exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the
      event and in the manner following:

	 	 	 	 
	 		(i) 	
      If and whenever the shares at any time outstanding are
      subdivided into a greater or consolidated into a lesser number of shares
      the Exercise Price will be decreased or increased proportionately as the
      case may be; upon any such subdivision or consolidation the number of
      shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants will be increased or
      decreased proportionately as the case may be.

	 	 	 	 
	 		(ii) 	
      In case of any capital reorganization or of any
      reclassification of the capital of the Company or in the case of the
      consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into any
      other Company (hereinafter collectively referred to as a
      "Reorganization"), each Warrant will after such Reorganization confer the
      right to purchase the number of shares or other securities of the Company
      (or of the Company's resulting from such Reorganization) which the Warrant
      Holder would have been entitled to upon Reorganization if the Warrant
      Holder had been a shareholder at the time of such
Reorganization.

	 	 	 	 
	 			
      In any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustments
      will be made in the application of the provisions of this Article Four
      relating to the rights and interest thereafter of the Holders of the
      Warrants so that the provisions of this Article Four will be made
      applicable as nearly as reasonably possible to any shares or other
      securities deliverable after the Reorganization on the exercise of the
      Warrants.

	 	 	 	 
	 			
      The subdivision or consolidation of shares at any time
      outstanding into a greater or lesser number of shares (whether with or
      without par value) will not be deemed to be a Reorganization for the
      purposes of this clause 4.8(a)(ii).

	 	 	 	 
	 	(b) 	
      The adjustments provided for in this Section 4.8 are
      cumulative and will become effective immediately after the record date or,
      if no record date is fixed, the effective date of the event which results
      in such adjustments.



4.9                     
Determination of Adjustments 

If any questions will at any time arise with respect to the
Exercise Price or any adjustment provided for in Section 4.8, such questions
will be conclusively determined by the Company's Auditors, or, if they decline
to so act any other firm of certified public accountants in the United States of
America that the Company may designate and who will have access to all
appropriate records and such determination will be binding upon the Company and
the Holders of the Warrants. 

5.                      
 WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS 

5.1                     
Immunity of Shareholders, etc. 

The Warrant Holder, as part of the consideration for the issue
of the Warrants, waives and will not have any right, cause of action or remedy
now or hereafter existing in any jurisdiction against any past, present or
future incorporator, shareholder, director or officer (as such) of the Company
for the issue of shares pursuant to any Warrant or on any covenant, agreement,
representation or warranty by the Company herein contained or in the Warrant.
