the Holder for services rendered; (g) provided that a public market for the

a portion of the shares so purchased to pay the Exercise Price and whereby the
NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the

Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the
Exercise Price directly to the Company; or (i) any combination of the
foregoing methods of payment or any other consideration or method of payment
as shall be permitted by applicable corporate law.

the Holder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on
the date of such exercise and payment.

In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant,
certificates for the Common Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder
within a reasonable time, not exceeding ten days after the rights represented by
this Warrant have been duly exercised and, unless this Warrant has expired, a
new Warrant representing the number of Common Shares, if any, with respect to
which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to
the Holder within such time.

The Company covenants and agrees that the Common Shares which may be issued upon
the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be
fully paid and non-assessable and free of all liens, charges and encumbrances.
The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the
rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all
times have authorized and reserved, a sufficient number of common shares to
provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

                     THE FOLLOWING ARE THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
                            REFERRED TO IN THIS WARRANT

1.     In case the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding common
shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be
proportionately reduced and the number of subdivided Common shares entitled to
be purchased proportionately increased, and conversely, in case the outstanding
Common Shares of the Company shall be consolidated into a smaller number of
shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of
consolidated Common Shares entitled to be purchased hereunder shall be
proportionately decreased.

       If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of
the Company, or the merger, amalgamation or arrangement of the Company with
another corporation shall be effected, then as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, amalgamation or arrangement, adequate
provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall have the right to purchase and
receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this
Warrant and in lieu of the Common Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and
receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby, such shares of
stock, or other securities as may be issued with respect to or in exchange for
such number of outstanding Common Shares equal to the number of Common Shares
purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant had such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, amalgamation or arrangement not taken
place.  The Company shall not effect any merger, amalgamation or arrangement
unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor
corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such merger, amalgamation
or arrangement assumes by written instrument executed and mailed or delivered to
the Holder of this Warrant the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares
of stock or securities in accordance with the foregoing provisions as such
Holder may be entitled to purchase.
