CONDITIONS AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 1.3 BELOW. NO PORTION OF THIS WARRANT MAY BE

shares entitled to preference, and the holders of which shall ordinarily, in the
absence of contingencies, be entitled to vote for the election of a majority of
directors of the Company (even though the right so to vote has been suspended by

         1.       Exercise of Warrant

                  1.1. Full Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in full by
the holder hereof by surrender of this Warrant, with the form of subscription at
the end hereof duly executed by such holder, to the Company at its principal
office, accompanied by payment, in cash or by certified or official bank check
payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable by
the Exercise Price then in effect.

                  1.2. Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part
by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in Section
1.1 except that the amount payable by the holder on such partial exercise shall
be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock
designated by the holder in the subscription at the end hereof by (b) the
Exercise Price then in effect. On any such partial exercise the Company at its
expense will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the holder
hereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the holder hereof
or as such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes)
may request, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the
number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant or Warrants may still be
exercised.

                  1.3 Conditions Regarding Exercisability. Portions of this
Warrant are exercisable only upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, and
unless such conditions are satisfied, only that portion of this Warrant for
which the conditions have been previously satisfied may be exercised at any

EXERCISED AT ANY TIME SHALL BE DETERMINED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE
COMPANY AND SET FORTH IN A NOTICE FROM THE COMPANY TO SCHNEIDER SECURITIES, INC.

OF THIS WARRANT MAY BE EXERCISED ABSENT THE AFORESAID NOTICE FROM THE COMPANY,
SIGNED BY AN AUTHORIZED OFFICER OF THE COMPANY.

                  1.4 Net Issuance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Section 1(a) hereof, in the case of any exercise on or prior to
December , 2000 the Holder may elect to exercise this Warrant in whole or in
part by receiving shares of Common Stock equal to the net issuance value (as
determined below) of this Warrant, or any part hereof as may then be exercised
pursuant to the terms hereof, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal
office of the Company together with notice of such election (with the form at
the end hereof duly executed), in which event the Company shall issue to the
Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:


<PAGE>

                  X = Y (A-B)
                      -------
                         A

         Where:
                           X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
                               to the Holder

                           Y = the number of shares of Common Stock as to which
                               this Warrant is to be exercised

                           A = the daily mean average of the closing price of a
                               share of Common Stock on the ten consecutive
                               trading days before the conversion date

                           B = the Exercise Price

         2. Delivery of Stock Certificates on Exercise. As soon as practicable
after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within
thirty (30) days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment
by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and
delivered to the holder hereof, or as such holder (upon payment by such holder
of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, a certificate or certificates for
the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) to which such holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in
lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled,
cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then current market value of one
full share.

         3.       Adjustment For Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger

                  3.1. Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger. In case at any
time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b)
consolidate with or merge into any other person or entity, or (c) transfer all
or substantially all of its capital stock, properties or assets to any other
person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the
Company, then, in each such case, the holder of this Warrant, on the exercise
hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the consummation of such
reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such
dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, upon the proper and rightful
exercise of this Warrant, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities)
issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the
stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such holder
would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such
dissolution, as the case may be, if such holder had so exercised this Warrant,
immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as
provided in Sections 4 and 5. The holder of this Warrant must exercise this
Warrant prior to the consummation of any of the foregoing events in order to
obtain the benefits of this Section.

                  3.2. Continuation of Terms. Upon any corporate event referred
to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and
the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and Other Securities
and property receivable on the exercise of



<PAGE>

this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or
merger, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any such
stock or other securities.

         4. Adjustments For Stock Dividends And Stock Splits. In the event that
the Company shall (i) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend
or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its
outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (iii) combine its outstanding shares of
the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in
each such event, the Exercise Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of
such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then prevailing Exercise Price by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such event (calculated assuming the conversion
or exchange of all outstanding shares of convertible or exchangeable securities
of the Company which are convertible or exchangeable into, or exercisable for,
shares of Common Stock) and the denominator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event (calculated
assuming the conversion or exchange of all outstanding shares of convertible or
exchangeable securities of the Company which are convertible or exchangeable
into, or exercisable for, shares of Common Stock), and the product so obtained
shall thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The Exercise Price, as so
adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any
successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The holder of
this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1,
be entitled to receive that number of shares of Common Stock determined by
multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise (but for
the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise, by a fraction of
which (i) the numerator is the Exercise Price which would otherwise (but for the
provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (ii) the denominator is the
Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

         5. Adjustment For Dividends in Other Stock, Property And
Reclassifications. In case at any time or from time to time, the holders of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall have received, or (on or after the
record date fixed for the determination of stockholders eligible to receive)
shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor,

                  (a) other or additional stock or other securities or property
(other than cash) by way of dividend, or

                  (b) other or additional stock or other securities or property
(including cash) by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification,
recapitalization, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement,
other than additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued as a
stock dividend or in a stock-split (adjustments in respect of which, in the case
of Common Stock, are provided for in Section 4), then and in each such case the
holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, shall
be entitled to receive the amount of other or additional stock and other
securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in subdivision
(b) of this Section 5) which such holder would hold on the date of such exercise
if on the date of distribution of such other or additional stock or other
securities and property, or on the record date fixed for determining the
shareholders entitled to receive such other or additional stock or other
securities and property, such holder had been the holder of record of the



<PAGE>

number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face of this Warrant and had
thereafter, during the period from the date thereof to and including the date of
such exercise, retained such shares and all such other or additional stock and
other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in
subdivision (b) of this Section 5) receivable by such holder as aforesaid during
such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by
Sections 3 and 4.

         6. Reservation of Stock Issuable on Exercise of Warrant. The Company
will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery
on the exercise of the Warrant, all shares of Common Stock from time to time
issuable on the exercise of the Warrant; the shares of Common Stock which the
holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise of the Warrant will be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

         7. Exchange of Warrant. On surrender for exchange of this Warrant,
properly endorsed, to the Company, the Company at its expense will issue and
deliver to or on the order of the holder thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of
like tenor, in the name of such holder or as such holder (on payment by such
holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on
the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on
the face or faces of the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered.

         8. Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this
Warrant, on 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.

         9. Warrantholder Not Deemed Stockholder; Restrictions on Transfer. This
Warrant is issued upon the following terms, to all of which each holder or owner
hereof by the taking hereof consents and agrees:

                  (a) No holder of this Warrant shall, as such, be deemed the
holder of Common Stock that may at any time be issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall anything contained herein be
construed to confer upon such holder, as such, any of the rights of a
stockholder of the Company until such holder shall have delivered formal notice
to the Company of an intention to exercise this Warrant, tendered promptly the
consideration required for exercise (whether cash or securities), exercised the
Warrant, and been issued shares of Common Stock in accordance with the
provisions hereof.

                  (b) Neither this Warrant nor any shares of Common Stock
purchased pursuant to this Warrant shall be registered under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "SECURITIES ACT") and applicable state securities laws. Therefore,
the Company may require, as a condition of allowing the transfer or exchange of
this Warrant or such shares, that the holder or transferee of this Warrant or
such shares, as the case may be, furnish to the Company an opinion of counsel
acceptable to the Company to the effect that such transfer or exchange may be
made without



<PAGE>

registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The
certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issued on the exercise of the
Warrant shall bear a legend to the effect that the shares evidenced by such
certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws.

                  (c) This Warrant is not transferable or assignable to any
party without the prior written consent of the Company, and accompanied by an
opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such transfer is permissible
under applicable law.

         10. Notices. All notices and other communications from the Company to
the holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by (i) first class mail, postage
prepaid, (ii) electronic facsimile transmission, or (iii) express overnight
courier service, at such address as may have been furnished to the Company in
writing by such holder or, until any such holder furnishes to the Company an
address, then to, and at the address of, the last holder of this Warrant who has
so furnished an address to the Company.

         11. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed,
waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the
party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination
is sought. This Warrant and the shares of Common Stock underlying this Warrant
shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the State of Delaware. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision
hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision.

         12. Expiration. The right to exercise this Warrant shall expire at 5:00
p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on December , 2000.
