     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, the
undersigned, DataLink.net, Inc., a Nevada corporation (together with its
successors and assigns, the "Issuer"), hereby certifies that H.C. Wainwright &
Co., Inc., located at 245 Park Avenue, 44th Floor, New York, New York 10167,
or its registered permitted assigns is entitled to subscribe for and purchase,
during the period specified in this Warrant, up to 76,923 shares (subject to
adjustment as hereinafter provided) of the duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of the Issuer, at an exercise price
per share of Thirteen Dollars ($13), subject, however, to the provisions and
upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.  Capitalized terms used
in this Warrant and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective
meanings specified in Section 8 hereof.

     1.     Term.  The right to subscribe for and purchase shares of Warrant
Stock represented hereby shall commence on the date of issuance of this
Warrant and shall expire at  5:00 p.m., California Time, on February 14, 2005
(the "Initial Term"), provided, that, if at the date of the expiration of the
Initial Term, (A) the Warrant Stock shall not be listed on the OTC Bulletin
Board, the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the Nasdaq National Market, The New York
Stock Exchange, Inc. or The American Stock Exchange, Inc. or (B) the Issuer
shall not have sufficient shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon a full
exercise of this Warrant, then the Initial Term shall be extended until such
date on which none of the foregoing events shall exist (the Initial Term, as
such may be extended, being hereinafter called the "Term").

     2.     Method of Exercise Payment:  Issuance of New Warrant:  Transfer
and Exchange.

     (a)     Time of Exercise.  The purchase rights represented by this
Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time
during the Term.

     (b)     Method of Exercise.  The Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant,
in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the exercise form
attached hereto duly executed) at the principal office of the Issuer, and by

<PAGE>

the payment to the Issuer of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the
Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number
of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which this Warrant is then being
exercised, payable at the Holder's election (i) in cash by certified or
official bank check, (ii) at any time on or after the Original Issue Date by
surrender to the Issuer for cancellation of a portion of this Warrant
representing that number of unissued shares of Warrant Stock which is equal to
the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the product obtained by multiplying the
Warrant Price by the number of shares of Warrant Stock being purchased upon
such exercise by (B) the difference obtained by subtracting the Warrant Price
from the Per Share Market Value as of the date of such exercise ("Cashless
Exercise by surrender of Warrant) or (iii) by a combination of the foregoing
methods of payment selected by the Holder of this Warrant.  In any case where
the consideration payable upon such exercise is being paid in whole or in part
pursuant to the provisions of clause (ii) of this subsection (b), such
exercise shall be accompanied by written notice from the Holder of this
Warrant specifying the manner of payment thereof and containing a calculation
showing the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which rights are
being surrendered thereunder and the net number of shares to be issued after
giving effect to such surrender. For purposes of the cashless exercise
provision, per share market value shall be calculated either (i) on the date
the Warrant exercise is delivered to the Company ("Notice Date") or (ii) as
the average closing Market Price for each of the five trading days preceding
the Notice Date, whichever of (i) or (ii) is greater. Notwithstanding anything
in this Warrant to the contrary, any remaining unexercised portion of this
Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the
Expiration Date, pursuant to a cashless exercise and the Company shall issue
that number of shares of common stock as provided for based on the method
described under the Cashless Exercise provision above.

     (c)     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 three 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 to which this
Warrant shall not then have been exercised (less any amount thereof which
shall have been canceled in payment or partial payment of the Warrant Price as
hereinabove provided) shall also be issued to the Holder hereof at the
Issuer's expense within such time.

     (d)     Transferability of Warrant.  Subject to the provisions of
subsection (e) of this Section 2, this Warrant may be transferred by the
Holder without the consent of the Issuer.  If transferred pursuant to this
paragraph, and subject to the provisions of subsection (e) of this Section 2,
this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by the Holder
hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this
Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer, properly endorsed (by the
Holder executing an assignment in the form attached hereto) and 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
of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder hereof shall designate at the time of
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.

<PAGE>

     (e)     Compliance with Securities Laws.

            (i)     The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof,
acknowledges that this Warrant and 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, transfer 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 DATALINK.NET, INC. SHALL
HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT
REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE
PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

           (iii)     The restrictions imposed by this subsection (e) upon the
transfer of this Warrant and the shares of Warrant Stock to be purchased upon
exercise hereof shall terminate (A) when such securities shall have been
effectively registered under the Securities Act, (B) upon the Issuer's receipt
of an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Issuer, addressed to the Issuer to the effect that such restrictions are no
longer required to ensure compliance with the Securities Act or (C) upon the
Issuer's receipt of other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that
such registration is not required.  Whenever such restrictions shall cease and
terminate as to any such securities, the Holder thereof shall be entitled to
receive from the Issuer (or its transfer agent and registrar), without expense
(other than applicable transfer taxes, if any), new Warrants (or, in the case
of shares of Warrant Stock, new stock certificates) of like tenor not bearing
the applicable legends required by paragraph (ii) above relating to the
Securities Act and state securities laws.

     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 number of shares of
Common Stock equal to at least 100% of the aggregate number of shares of
Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant.

     (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

<PAGE>

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 Certificate 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 Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws
of the Issuer in any manner that would adversely affect in any way the powers,
preferences or relative participating, optional or other special rights of the
Common Stock or which would adversely affect the rights of the Holder of this
Warrant, (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. Registration Rights Under The Securities Act

     (a)     Demand Registration.

             (i)     The Company upon, written demand of the Holders of at
least 51% of the then currently outstanding Warrant, agrees to register on one
occasion the shares of common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant (the "Registrable Securites). On such occasion, the Company will file
a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities within 45 days
after receipt of the written demand notice and will use its best efforts to
have such registration statement declared effective promptly thereafter,
provided however, the Company may delay such filing for one period of up to 30
consecutive days after the initial demand notice if the Company believes, in
good faith, that filing the registration statement would materially adversely
impact then ongoing discussions or negotiations regarding a merger,

<PAGE>

acquisition or other similar transaction. If the Company fails to comply with
the provisions of this Section, the Company shall, in addition to any other
equitable or other relief available to the Holders, be liable for any and all
incidental, special and consequential damages sustained by the Holders. The
demand for registration may be made at any time prior to the fifth anniversary
of the Effective Date.

             (ii)     The Holders shall pay any and all underwriting
commissions, if any, in connection with the sale of the Registrable
Securities, but the Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to
registering the Registrable Securities. The Company agrees to use its best
efforts to cause the filing required herein to become effective promptly and
to qualify or register the Registrable Securities in such States as are
reasonably requested by the Holders. The Company shall cause any registration
statement filed pursuant to the demand rights granted hereunder to remain
effective for a period of 12 months.

     (b)     Piggyback Registration

             (i)     In addition to the demand right of registration, the
Holders of the Warrant shall have the right for a period of five years
commencing on the Effective Date to include the Registrable Securities as part
of any other registration of securities filed by Company (other than in
connection with a transaction contemplated by Rule 145(a) promulgated under
the Act or pursuant to Form S-8 or any equivalent form.

             (ii)  The Holders shall pay any and all underwriting commissions,
if any, in connection with the sale of the Registrable Securities, but the
Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the
Registrable Securities. In the event of such a proposed registration, the
Company shall furnish the then Holders of outstanding Registrable Securities
with not less than twenty days written notice prior to the proposed date of
filing of such registration statement. The holders of the Registrable
Securities shall exercise the piggback rights provided for herein by giving
written notice, within ten days of the receipt of the Company's notice of
intention to file a registration statement. The Company shall cause any
registration filed pursuant to the above piggyback registration rights to
remain effective in the the case of a registration statement on form S-3,
until all the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement
have been solld and in the case of a registration statement on a form other
than S-3, for a period of one year.

     5.     Adjustment of Warrant Price and Warrant Share Number.  The number
and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the
Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of certain events as follows:

     (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; provided, however, that
a merger for the sole purpose of effecting a change in domicile of the Issuer
from one state to another shall not be deemed a Triggering Event, 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

<PAGE>

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 (x) 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, or is redeemed in connection with
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 the Holder would
have been entitled upon the consummation of such Triggering Event if the
Holder had exercised the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior
thereto, subject to adjustments and increases (subsequent to such corporate
action) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in
Section 4 hereof or (y) to sell this Warrant (or, at the Holder's election, a
portion hereof) to the Person continuing after or surviving such Triggering
Event, or to the Issuer (if Issuer is the continuing or surviving Person) at a
sales price equal to the amount of cash, property and/or Securities to which a
holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise have been
delivered upon the exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled upon the
effective date or closing of any such Triggering Event (the "Event
Consideration"), less the amount or portion of such Event Consideration having
a fair value equal to the aggregate Warrant Price applicable to this Warrant
or the portion hereof so sold.

             (ii)     If with respect to any Triggering Event, the Holder of
this Warrant has exercised its right as provided in clause (y) of subparagraph
(i) of this subsection (a) to sell this Warrant or a portion thereof, the
Issuer agrees that as a condition to the consummation of any such Triggering
Event the Issuer shall secure such right of Holder to sell this Warrant to the
Person continuing after or surviving such Triggering Event and the Issuer
shall not effect any such Triggering Event unless upon or prior to the
consummation thereof the amounts of cash, property and/or Securities required
under such clause (y) are delivered to the Holder of this Warrant.  The
obligation of the Issuer to secure such right of the Holder to sell this
Warrant shall be subject to the Holder's cooperation with the Issuer,
including, without limitation, the giving of customary representations and
warranties to the purchaser in connection with any such sale.  Prior notice of
any Triggering Event shall be given to the Holder of this Warrant in
accordance with Section 11 hereof.

     (b)     Subdivision or Combination of Shares.  If the Issuer, at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding, shall subdivide or combine any shares of
Common Stock, (i) in case of subdivision of shares, the Warrant Price shall be
proportionately reduced (as at the effective date of such subdivision or, if
the Issuer shall take a record of holders of its Common Stock for the purpose
of so subdividing, as at the applicable record date, whichever is earlier) to
reflect the increase in the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
as a result of such subdivision, or (ii) in the case of a combination of
shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased (as at the
effective date of such combination or, if the Issuer shall take a record of
holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of so combining, as at the
applicable record date, whichever is earlier) to reflect the reduction in the
total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of such
combination.

     (c)     Certain Dividends and Distributions.  If the Issuer, at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding, shall:

<PAGE>

             (i)     Common Stock Dividends.  Pay a dividend in, or make any
other distribution to its stockholders (without consideration therefor) of,
shares of Common Stock, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, as at the date
the Issuer shall take a record of the holders the Issuer's Capital Stock for
the purpose of receiving such dividend or other distribution (or if no such
record is taken, as at the date of such payment or other distribution), to
that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such record date (or if no such record is taken, then immediately
prior to such payment or other distribution), by a fraction (1) the numerator
of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (2) the denominator of
which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such dividend or distribution (plus in the event that the
Issuer paid cash for fractional shares, the number of additional shares which
would have been outstanding had the Issuer issued fractional shares in
connection with said dividends); or

             (ii)     Other Dividends.  Pay a dividend on, or make any
distribution of its assets upon or with respect to (including, but not limited
to, a distribution of its property as a dividend in liquidation or partial
liquidation or by way of return of capital), the Common Stock (other than as
described in clause (i) of this subsection (c)), or in the event that the
Issuer shall offer options or rights to subscribe for shares of Common Stock,
or issue any Common Stock Equivalents, to all of its holders of Common Stock,
then on the record date for such payment, distribution or offer or, in the
absence of a record date, on the date of such payment, distribution or offer,
the Holder shall receive what the Holder would have received had it exercised
this Warrant in full immediately prior to the record date of such payment,
distribution or offer or, in the absence of a record date, immediately prior
to the date of such payment, distribution or offer.

     (d)     Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments Under this Section 5.
The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments in
the Warrant Price hereinbefore provided in Section 4.  The number of shares of
Common Stock at any time outstanding shall (A) not include any shares thereof
then directly or indirectly owned or held by or for the account of the Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries, and (B) be deemed to include all shares of Common
Stock then issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any then
outstanding Common Stock Equivalents or any other evidences of indebtedness,
shares of Capital Stock (including, without limitation, the Preferred Stock)
or other Securities which are or may be at any time convertible into or
exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or Other Common Stock.

     (e)     Other Action Affecting Common Stock.  In case after the Original
Issue Date the Issuer shall take any action affecting its Common Stock, other
than an action described in any of the foregoing subsections (a) through (d)
of this Section 5, inclusive, and the failure to make any adjustment would not
fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance
with the essential intent and principle of this Section 5, then the Warrant
Price shall be adjusted in such manner and at such time as the Board may in
good faith determine to be equitable in the circumstances.

     (f)     Adjustment of Warrant Share Number.  Upon each adjustment in the
Warrant Price pursuant to the provisions (b) and (c)(i) of this Section 5, the
Warrant Share Number shall be adjusted, to the nearest one hundredth of a
whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying the Warrant Share Number
immediately prior to such adjustment in the Warrant Price by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the Warrant Price immediately before giving effect
to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price
immediately after giving effect to such adjustment.  If the Issuer shall be in
default under any provision contained in Section 3 of this Warrant so that

<PAGE>

shares issued at the Warrant Price adjusted in accordance with this Section 4
would not be validly issued, the adjustment of the Warrant Share Number
provided for in the foregoing sentence shall nonetheless be made and the
Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to purchase such greater number of
shares at the lowest price at which such shares may then be validly issued
under applicable law.  Such exercise shall not constitute a waiver of any
claim arising against the Issuer by reason of its default under Section 3 of
this Warrant.

     (g)     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.

     (h)    Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation,
merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in
this section 5, 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 this Warrant after the consummation
of such reorganization, consolidation, or merger or the effective date of
dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be
binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in
the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all
of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall
have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant.

     6.     Notice of Adjustments.  Whenever the Warrant Price or Warrant
Share Number shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 5 hereof (for purposes of
this Section 6, 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" mutually agreed upon by the Issuer and the Holder or, in the event the
Issuer and the Holder are unable to agree, a "big five" national accounting
firm (other than the Issuer's independent auditors) selected by the Issuer's
independent auditors.  The firm selected in the manner as provided in the
preceding sentence shall be instructed to deliver a written opinion as to such
matters to the Issuer and the Holder within thirty days after submission to it
of such dispute.  Such opinion shall be final and binding on the parties
hereto.  The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be paid by the
Issuer.

     7.     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.

<PAGE>

                 2.1.1. Subject to the remaining provisions of this Agreement,
the Company hereby indemnifies and holds Indemnitee harmless for any Losses or
Expenses arising from any Claims relating to (or arising in whole or in part out
of) any Covered Event, including, without limitation, any Claim the basis of
which is any actual or alleged breach of duty, neglect, error, misstatement,
misleading statement, omission or other act done or attempted by Indemnitee in
the capacity as a Company Agent, whether or not Indemnitee is acting or serving
in such capacity at the date of this Agreement, at the time liability is
incurred or at the time the Claim is initiated.

                 2.1.2. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement
shall apply to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by the provisions of
applicable law, as presently in effect or as changed after the date of this
Agreement, whether by statute or judicial decision (but, in the case of any
subsequent change, only to the extent that such change permits the Company to
provide broader indemnification than permitted prior to giving effect thereto).

                 2.1.3. Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification
pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any Claim initiated by Indemnitee
against the Company or any director or officer of the Company, unless the
Company has joined in or consented to the initiation of such Claim; provided,
the provisions of this Section 2.1.3 shall not apply following a Change in
Control to Claims seeking enforcement of this Agreement, the Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or any other agreement now or hereafter
in effect relating to indemnification for Covered Events.

                 2.1.4. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this
Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of the Losses
or Expenses paid with respect to a Claim but not, however, for the total amount
thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless
against the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled.

                 2.1.5. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
to the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any or all Claims relating to (or arising in whole or in part out of)
a Covered Event or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including
dismissal without prejudice, the Company shall indemnify and hold Indemnitee
harmless against all expenses incurred in connection therewith.

           2.2. Indemnification for Serving as Witness and Certain Other Claims.
                ----------------------------------------------------------------
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company hereby
indemnifies and holds Indemnitee harmless for all Expenses in connection with
(a) the preparation to serve or service as a witness in any Claim in which
Indemnitee is not a party, if such actual or proposed service as a witness arose
by reason of Indemnitee having served as a Company Agent on or the date of this
Agreement and (b) any Claim initiated by Indemnitee on or after the date of this
Agreement (i) for recovery under any directors' and officers' liability
insurance maintained by the Company or (ii) following a Change in Control, for
enforcement of the indemnification obligations of the Company under this
Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or any
other agreement now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification for
Covered Events, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be
entitled to such insurance recovery or indemnification, as the case may be.

     Section 3. Limitations on Indemnification.

<PAGE>

                 3.1.2. If Indemnitee's conduct giving rise to the Claim with
respect to which indemnification is requested was knowingly fraudulent, a
knowing violation of law, deliberately dishonest or in bad faith or constituted
willful misconduct;

                 3.1.3. In respect of any Claim based upon or attributable to
Indemnitee gaining in fact any personal profit or advantage to which Indemnitee
was not legally entitled;

                 3.1.4. In respect of any Claim for an accounting of profits
made from the purchase or sale by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within

           3.2. No Duplication of Payments. The Company shall not be liable
                ---------------------------
under this Agreement to make any payment otherwise due and payable to the extent
Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment (whether under the
Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company, the D & O Insurance
or otherwise) of any amounts otherwise due and payable under this Agreement.

     Section 4. Payments and Determinations.

           4.1. Advancement and Reimbursement of Expenses. If requested by
                ------------------------------------------
Indemnitee, the Company shall advance to Indemnitee, no later than two business
days following any such request, any and all Expenses for which indemnification
is available under Section 2. Upon any Determination that Indemnitee is not
permitted to be indemnified for any expenses so advanced, Indemnitee hereby
agrees to reimburse the Company (or, as appropriate, any Trust established
pursuant to Section 9.2) for all such amounts previously paid. Such obligation
of reimbursement shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon.

           4.2. Payment and Determination Procedures.
                -------------------------------------

                 4.2.1. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement,
Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, together with such
documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is
reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon
receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board of Directors in
writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.

                 4.2.2. Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification
pursuant to Section 4.2.1, a Determination with respect to Indemnitee's
entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case (a) if a Change in
Control shall have occurred, as provided in Section 9.1; and (b) if a Change in
Control shall not have occurred, by (i) the Board of Directors by a majority
vote of a quorum of Disinterested Directors, (ii) Independent Legal Counsel, if
either (A) a quorum of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or (B) a
majority vote of a quorum of Disinterested Directors otherwise so directs or
(iii) the stockholders of the Company (if submitted by the Board of Directors).
If a Determination is made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification,
payment to Indemnitee shall be made within 10 days after such Determination.

                 4.2.3. If no Determination is made within 60 days after receipt
by the Company of a request for indemnification by Indemnitee pursuant to
Section 4.2.1, a Determination shall be deemed to have been made that Indemnitee
is entitled to the requested indemnification (and the Company shall pay the
related Losses and Expenses no later than 10 days after the expiration of such
60-day period), except where such indemnification is not lawful; provided,
however, that (a) such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not
to exceed an additional 30 days, if
<PAGE>

the Person or Persons making the Determination in good faith require such
additional time for obtaining or evaluating the documentation and information
relating thereto; and (b) the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2.3 shall
not apply (i) if the Determination is to be made by the stockholders of the
Company and if (A) within 15 days after receipt by the Company of the request by
Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.2.1 the Board of Directors has resolved to
submit such Determination to the stockholders at an annual meeting of the
stockholders to be held within 75 days after such receipt, and such
Determination is made at such annual meeting, or (B) a special meeting of
stockholders is called within 15 days after such receipt for the purpose of
making such Determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within 60 days
after having been so called and such Determination is made at such special
meeting, or (ii) if the Determination is to be made by Independent Legal
Counsel.

     Section 5. D & O Insurance.

           5.1. Current Policies. The Company hereby represents and warrants to
                -----------------
Indemnitee that the D & O Insurance is in full force and effect.

           5.2. Continued Coverage. The Company shall maintain the D & O
                -------------------
Insurance for so long as this Agreement remains in effect. The Company shall
cause the D & O Insurance to cover Indemnitee, in accordance with its terms and
at all times such insurance is in effect, to the maximum extent of the coverage
provided thereby for any director or officer of the Company.

           5.3. Indemnification. In the event of any reduction in, or
                ----------------
cancellation of, the D & O Insurance (whether voluntary or involuntary on behalf
of the Company), the Company shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold
Indemnitee harmless against any Losses or Expenses which Indemnitee is or
becomes obligated to pay as a result of the Company's failure to maintain the D
& O Insurance in effect in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notwithstanding any provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company, or any other
agreement now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification for Covered
Events. The indemnification available under this Section 5.3 is in addition to
all other obligations of indemnification of the Company under this Agreement and
shall be the only remedy of Indemnitee for a breach by the Company of its
obligations set forth in Section 5.2.

     Section 6. Subrogation. In the event of any payment under this Agreement
to or on behalf of Indemnitee, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of
such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against any Person
other than the Company or Indemnitee in respect of the Claim giving rise to such
payment. Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do
everything reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution
of such documents reasonably necessary to enable the Company effectively to
bring suit to enforce such rights.

     Section 7. Notifications and Defense of Claims.

           7.1. Notice by Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall give notice in writing to
                ---------------------
the Company as soon as practicable after Indemnitee becomes aware of any Claim
with respect to which indemnification will or could be sought under this
Agreement; provided the failure of Indemnitee to give such notice, or any delay
in giving such notice, shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under
this Agreement except to the extent the Company is actually prejudiced by any
such failure or delay.

           7.2. Insurance. The Company shall give prompt notice of the
                ----------
commencement of any Claim relating to Covered Events to the insurers on the D &
O Insurance, if any, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
respective policies in favor of Indemnitee. The Company shall thereafter take
all necessary action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all
amounts payable as a result of such Claims in accordance with the terms of such
policies.
<PAGE>

           7.3. Defense.
                --------

                 7.3.1. In the event any Claim relating to Covered Events is by
or in the right of the Company, Indemnitee may, at the option of Indemnitee,
either control the defense therefor or accept the defense provided under the D &
O Insurance; provided, however, that Indemnitee may not control the defense if
such decision would jeopardize the coverage provided by the D & O Insurance, if
any, to the Company or the other directors and officers covered thereby.

                 7.3.2. In the event any Claim relating to Covered Events is
other than by or in the right of the Company, Indemnitee may, at the option of
Indemnitee, either control the defense thereof, require the Company to defend or
accept the defense provided under the D & O Insurance; provided, however, that
Indemnitee may not control the defense or require the Company to defend if such
decision would jeopardize the coverage provided by the D & O Insurance to the
Company or the other directors and officers covered thereby. In the event that
Indemnitee requires the Company to so defend, or in the event that Indemnitee
proceeds under the D & O Insurance but Indemnitee determines that such insurers
under the D & O Insurance are unable or unwilling to adequately defend
Indemnitee against any such Claim, the Company shall promptly undertake to
defend any such Claim, at the Company's sole cost and expense, utilizing counsel
of Indemnitee's choice who has been approved by the Company. If appropriate, the
Company shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such Claim.

                 7.3.3. In the event the Company shall fail, as required by any
election by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7.3.2, timely to defend Indemnitee
against any such Claim, Indemnitee shall have the right to do so, including
without limitation, the right (notwithstanding Section 7.3.4) to make any
settlement thereof, and to recover from the Company, to the extent otherwise
permitted by this Agreement, all Expenses and Losses paid as a result thereof.

                 7.3.4. The Company shall have no obligation under this
Agreement with respect to any amounts paid or to be paid in settlement of any
Claim without the express prior written consent of the Company to any related
settlement. In no event shall the Company authorize any settlement imposing any
liability or other obligations on Indemnitee without the express prior written
consent of Indemnitee. Neither the Company nor Indemnitee shall unreasonably
withhold consent to any proposed settlement.

       Section 8. Determinations and Related Matters.

           8.1. Presumptions.
                -------------

                 8.1.1. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, Indemnitee
shall be entitled to a rebuttable presumption that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification under this Agreement and the Company shall have the burden of
proof in rebutting such presumption.

                 8.1.2. The termination of any Claim by judgment, order,
settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a
plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not adversely affect either the
right of Indemnitee to indemnification under this Agreement or the presumptions
to which Indemnitee is otherwise entitled pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement nor create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular
standard of conduct or have a particular belief or that a court has determined
that indemnification is not permitted by applicable law.

           8.2. Appeals; Enforcement.
                ---------------------

                 8.2.1. In the event that (a) a Determination is made that
Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (b)
any Determination to be made by Independent
<PAGE>

Legal Counsel is not made within 90 days of receipt by the Company of a request
for indemnification pursuant to Section 4.2.1 or (c) the Company fails to
otherwise perform any of its obligations under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, its obligation to make payments to Indemnitee following any
Determination made or deemed to have been made that such payments are
appropriate), Indemnitee shall have the right to commence a Claim in any court
of competent jurisdiction, as appropriate, to seek a Determination by the court,
to challenge or appeal any Determination which has been made, or to otherwise
enforce this Agreement. If a Change of Control shall have occurred, Indemnitee
shall have the option to have any such Claim conducted by a single arbitrator
pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Any such judicial
proceeding challenging or appealing any Determination shall be deemed to be
conducted de novo and without prejudice by reason of any prior Determination to
the effect that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement. Any such Claim shall be at the sole expense of Indemnitee except as
provided in Section 9.3.

                 8.2.2. If a Determination shall have been made or deemed to
have been made pursuant to this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such Determination in any
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 8.2,
except if such indemnification is unlawful.

                 8.2.3. The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 8.2 that
the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and
enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator
that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. The Company
hereby consents to service of process and to appear in any such judicial or
arbitration proceedings and shall not oppose Indemnitee's right to commence any
such proceedings.

           8.3. Procedures. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Company and with
                -----------
any Person making any Determination with respect to any Claim for which a claim
for indemnification under this Agreement has been made, as the Company may
reasonably require. Indemnitee shall provide to the Company or the Person making
any Determination, upon reasonable advance request, any documentation or
information reasonably available to Indemnitee and necessary to (a) the Company
with respect to any such Claim or (b) the Person making any Determination with
respect thereto.

     Section 9. Change in Control Procedures.

           9.1. Determinations. If there is a Change in Control, any
                ---------------
Determination to be made under Section 4 shall be made by Independent Legal
Counsel selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld). The Company shall pay the reasonable fees of the
Independent Legal Counsel and indemnify fully such Independent Legal Counsel
against any and all expenses (including attorneys' fees), claims, liabilities
and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the engagement of
Independent Legal Counsel pursuant hereto.

           9.2. Establishment of Trust. Following the occurrence of any
                -----------------------
Potential Change in Control, the Company, upon receipt of a written request from
Indemnitee, shall create a Trust (the "Trust") for the benefit of Indemnitee,
the trustee of which shall be a bank or similar financial institution with trust
powers chosen by Indemnitee. From time to time, upon the written request of
Indemnitee, the Company shall fund the Trust in amounts sufficient to satisfy
any and all Losses and Expenses reasonably anticipated at the time of each such
request to be incurred by Indemnitee for which indemnification may be available
under this Agreement. The amount or amounts to be deposited in the Trust
pursuant to the foregoing funding obligation shall be determined by mutual
agreement of Indemnitee and the Company or, if the Company and Indemnitee are
unable to reach such an agreement or, in any event, a Change in Control has
occurred, by Independent Legal Counsel (selected pursuant to Section 9.1). The
terms of the Trust shall provide that, except upon
<PAGE>

the prior written consent of Indemnitee and the Company, (a) the Trust shall not
be revoked or the principal thereof invaded, other than to make payments to
unsatisfied judgment creditors of the Company, (b) the Trust shall continue to
be funded by the Company in accordance with the funding obligations set forth in
this Section, (c) the Trustee shall promptly pay or advance to Indemnitee any
amounts to which Indemnitee shall be entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and
(d) all unexpended funds in the Trust shall revert to the Company upon a
Determination by Independent Legal Counsel (selected pursuant to Section 9.1) or
a court of competent jurisdiction that Indemnitee has been fully indemnified
under the terms of this Agreement. All income earned on the assets held in the
trust shall be reported as income by the Company for federal, state, local and
foreign tax purposes.

           9.3. Expenses. Following any Change in Control, the Company shall be
                ---------
liable for, and shall pay the Expenses paid or incurred by Indemnitee in
connection with the making of any Determination (irrespective of the
determination as to Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification) or the
prosecution of any Claim pursuant to Section 8.2, and the Company hereby agrees
to indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. If requested by counsel for
Indemnitee, the Company shall promptly give such counsel an appropriate written
agreement with respect to the payment of its fees and expenses and such other
matters as may be reasonably requested by such counsel.

     Section 10. Period of Limitations. No legal action shall be brought and
no cause of action shall be asserted by or in the right of the Company, any
Subsidiary, any Other Enterprise or any Affiliate of the Company against
Indemnitee or Indemnitee's spouse, heirs, executors, administrators or personal
or legal representatives after the expiration of two years from the date of
accrual of such cause of action, and any claim or cause of action of the
Company, any Subsidiary, any Other Enterprise or any Affiliate of the Company
shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing
of a legal action within such two-year period; provided, however, that if any
shorter period of limitations, whether established by statute or judicial
decision, is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action such shorter
period shall govern.

     Section 11. Contribution. If the indemnification provisions of this
Agreement should be unenforceable under applicable law in whole or in part or
insufficient to hold Indemnitee harmless in respect of any Losses and Expenses
incurred by Indemnitee, then for purposes of this Section 11, the Company shall
be treated as if it were, or was threatened to be made, a party defendant to the
subject Claim and the Company shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by
Indemnitee as a result of such Losses and Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits accruing to
the Company on the one hand and Indemnitee on the other and the relative fault
of the Company on the one hand and Indemnitee on the other in connection with
such Claim, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. For purposes
of this Section 11 the relative benefit of the Company shall be deemed to be the
benefits accruing to it and to all of its directors, officers, employees and
agents (other than Indemnitee) on the one hand, as a group and treated as one
entity, and the relative benefit of Indemnitee shall be deemed to be an amount
not greater than the Indemnitee's yearly base salary or Indemnitee's
compensation from the Company during the first year in which the Covered Event
forming the basis for the subject Claim was alleged to have occurred. The
relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the
fault of the Company and all of its directors, officers, employees and agents
(other than Indemnitee) on the one hand, as a group and treated as one entity,
and Indemnitee's and such group's relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to have altered or prevented the Covered Event
forming the basis for the subject Claim.

     Section 12. Miscellaneous Provisions.

           12.1. Successors and Assigns, Etc.
                 ----------------------------

                 12.1.1. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of (a) the Company, its successors and assigns (including any direct or
indirect successor by merger, consolidation or operation of law or by transfer
of all or substantially all of its assets) and (b)

<PAGE>

Indemnitee and the heirs, personal and legal representatives, executors,
administrators or assigns of Indemnitee.

                 12.1.2. The Company shall not consummate any consolidation,
merger or other business combination, nor will it transfer 50% or more of its
assets (in one or a series of related transactions), unless the ultimate Parent
of the successor to the business or assets of the Company shall have first
executed an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, to
expressly assume all obligations of the Company under this Agreement and agree
to perform this Agreement in accordance with its terms, in the same manner and
to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform this Agreement
if no such transaction had taken place; provided that, if the Parent is not the
Company, the legality of payment of indemnity by the Parent shall be determined
by reference to the fact that such indemnity is to be paid by the Parent rather
than the Company.

           12.2. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable.
                 -------------
If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by any court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, such provision shall be
deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to avoid a violation of
law and, as so modified, such provision and the remaining provisions shall
remain valid and enforceable in accordance with their terms to the fullest
extent permitted by law.

           12.3. Rights Not Exclusive; Continuation of Right of Indemnification.
                 ---------------------------------------------------------------

Indemnitee's right to indemnification pursuant to any provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, any agreement, vote of
stockholders or Disinterested Directors, applicable law or otherwise. This
Agreement shall be effective as of the date first above written and continue in
effect until no Claims relating to any Covered Event may be asserted against
Indemnitee and until any Claims commenced prior thereto are finally terminated
and resolved, regardless of whether Indemnitee continues to serve as an officer
of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Other Enterprise.

           12.4. No Employment Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement
                 ------------------------
shall be construed as giving Indemnitee any right to be retained in the employ
of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Other Enterprise.

           12.5. Subsequent Amendment. No amendment, termination or repeal of
                 ---------------------
any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, or
any respective successors thereto, or of any relevant provision of any
applicable law, shall affect or diminish in any way the rights of Indemnitee to
indemnification, or the obligations of the Company, arising under this
Agreement, whether the alleged actions or conduct of Indemnitee giving rise to
the necessity of such indemnification arose before or after any such amendment,
termination or repeal.

           12.6. Notices. Notices required under this Agreement shall be given
                 --------

           12.7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
                 --------------
construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware
applicable to contracts made and performed in such state without giving effect
to the principles of conflict of laws.

           12.8. Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are
                 ---------
inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this
Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.
<PAGE>

           12.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
                 -------------
counterparts all of which taken together shall constitute one instrument.

           12.10. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or
                  ------------------------
amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both
of the parties hereto. No waiver or any of the provisions of this Agreement
shall constitute, or be deemed to constitute, a waiver of any other provision
hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall any such waiver constitute a
continuing waiver.

     The parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of
the day and year first above written.
