                               TERM AND POSSESSION

SECTION 1.01. COMMENCEMENT AND EXPIRATION. The term of this Lease shall be the
period of time specified in Item 5 of the Basic Lease Provisions, adjusted as
provided below. The term shall commence on the Target Commencement Date shown in
Item 6 of the Basic Lease Provisions or such later date as the Premises

                                       3
<PAGE>   4

shall be tendered to Tenant as set forth below, or such earlier date as Tenant
takes possession or commences use of the Premises for any purpose, including
construction. The term of this Lease shall expire, without notice to Tenant, on
the Expiration Date (as defined below). If the Lease commences on any day other
than the first day of a calendar month, the term of the Lease shall be extended
by that part of that month necessary to cause the expiration of the term to be
on the last day of a calendar month. The dates of commencement ("Commencement
Date") and expiration ("Expiration Date"), shall be documented by Landlord and
Tenant by execution of an "Acceptance of Premises Amendment" attached hereto as
Exhibit "B" and made a part hereof.

SECTION 1.02. CONSTRUCTION OF LEASE SPACE IMPROVEMENTS AND POSSESSION. Landlord
will perform or cause to be performed the work as described in Exhibit "C", in
accordance with the terms of said Exhibit "C", in a good and workmanlike manner
and in compliance with applicable law, subject to events and delays beyond its
control for which Landlord will not be liable to Tenant in any way. In the event
any delays beyond the control of Landlord cause a delay in the tendering of the
Premises, of sixty (60) days after Tenant's execution of this Lease, Tenant
shall have the right to terminate this Lease as its sole remedy. Landlord will
tender the Premises to Tenant by providing fifteen days prior written notice of
the day on which Landlord's work is scheduled to be completed. Upon delivery of
possession of the Premises to Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall execute the
above-mentioned Acceptance of Premises Amendment, which, besides fixing the
Commencement Date and Expiration Date, will contain acknowledgments that Tenant
has accepted the Premises and their condition, and that the Premises and the
Building are satisfactory in all respects except for minor "punch list" items
agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant, which Landlord will remedy. If
Tenant takes possession of the Premises, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted
the Premises even though the Acceptance of Premises Amendment may not have been
executed.

In the event Tenant requires work in the Premises and Landlord does not perform
or cause the performance of that work ("Non-Standard Work" ), Landlord's notice
of tender of the Premises shall specify the day on which possession could have
been taken if Landlord had performed or caused the performance of the
Non-Standard Work. The Commencement Date in such a case shall be the earlier of
the date of completion of Tenant's Non-Standard Work or the date on which
possession could have been taken if Landlord had performed the Non-Standard
Work, notwithstanding that such Non-Standard Work may not be completed by Tenant
on such date.

SECTION 1.03. SURRENDER OF PREMISES. Upon the expiration or earlier termination
of this Lease, or upon the exercise by Landlord of its right to re-enter the
Premises without terminating this Lease, Tenant shall immediately surrender the
Premises and all keys to the Premises to Landlord, together with all
alterations, improvements and other property as provided elsewhere herein, in
good order, condition and repair, except for ordinary wear and tear, and damage
by fire or other casualty, provided that at Landlord's written request Tenant
shall remove at its expense any physical additions and/or alterations to the
Premises made subsequent to the Commencement Date by Tenant or at Tenant's
request if at the time Landlord granted its consent to such addition or
alteration Landlord advised Tenant that Landlord's consent to the addition or
alteration was conditioned upon Tenant's removal of the addition or alteration
at the termination of the Lease. Tenant shall, at its expense, promptly repair
any damage caused by removal of any other improvements requested by Landlord as
aforesaid, and shall restore the Premises to the condition existing prior to the
installation of the items removed. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises in
the condition aforesaid, then Landlord may restore the Premises to such a
condition at Tenant's expense. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease, Tenant will, at the option of Landlord, execute a Release of Lease
and Waiver of Claim, in recordable form, containing Tenant's release of all its
interest in the Premises.

SECTION 1.04. HOLDING OVER. In the event Tenant, or any party under Tenant
claiming rights to this Lease, retains possession of the Premises after the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, such possession shall be an
unlawful detainer, and no tenancy or interest shall result from such possession;
such parties shall be

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

subject to eviction and removal, and Tenant or any such party shall pay Landlord
as rent for the period of such holdover an amount equal to one and one-half
times the highest rental rate (including Additional Rent, as adjusted in Section
2.02.A.1 hereof) provided for in this Lease. Tenant shall also pay any and all
damages sustained by Landlord as a result of such holdover. Tenant will vacate
the Premises and deliver same to Landlord immediately upon Tenant's receipt of
notice from Landlord to so vacate. This provision shall not be deemed to waive
Landlord's right to re-entry or any other right hereunder or at law. The rent
during such holdover period shall be payable to Landlord on demand. No holding
over by Tenant, whether with or without consent of Landlord, shall operate to
extend this Lease.

                                      RENT

SECTION 2.01. BASIC RENT. Tenant shall pay as Basic Rent for the Premises the
annual sum shown in Item 4(a) of the Basic Lease Provisions. The Basic Rent
shall be payable in equal monthly installments (as shown in Item 4(b) of the
Basic Lease Provisions) in advance, without demand, deduction or setoff, except
as provided for herein, commencing on the Commencement Date (subject to the
provisions of Section 2.02.0 hereof) and continuing on the first day of each
calendar month thereafter. If the term of this Lease commences on a day other
than the first day of a calendar month, the rent for such partial month shall be
prorated in the proportion that the number of days (including the Commencement
Date) this Lease is in effect during such partial month bears to the number of
days in that calendar month.

SECTION 2.02. ADDITIONAL RENT.

A.       Definitions. For purposes of this Section 2.02, the following
         definitions shall apply:

1.       "Additional Rent" shall mean the sum of "Tenant's Proportionate Share
         of Building Operating Expenses," as deemed in Section 2.02.A.4 hereof.

2.       "Building Operating Expenses" shall mean all of Landlord's costs and
         expenses paid or incurred in operating and maintaining the Building for
         a particular calendar year or portion thereof as determined by Landlord
         in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, including
         all additional costs and expenses of operation and maintenance of the
         Building which Landlord determines that it would have paid or incurred
         during such year, grossed up to 100% occupancy for the Building.
         Building Operating Expenses shall include by way of illustration but
         not limitation: insurance premiums; water, sewer, electrical and other
         utility charges; service and other charges incurred in the operation
         and maintenance of the elevators and the heating; ventilation and
         air-conditioning system; cleaning and other janitorial services; tools
         and supplies; repair costs; landscape maintenance costs; security

         expenses; wages and related benefits payable to employees relating
         thereto; legal services; accounting services; trash removal: parking
         maintenance and operating costs; all other costs and expenses which
         would generally be regarded as operating and maintenance costs and
         expenses, including those which would normally be amortized over a
         period not to exceed five (5) years; all taxes, assessments and
         governmental charges of any kind and nature whatsoever lawfully levied
         or assessed against the Building and paid or incurred by Landlord for a
         particular calendar year or portion thereof; and any fees, expenses and
         costs incurred by Landlord in its efforts to ensure a fair and
         equitable tax burden on the Building or to contest the validity of any
         assessments, levies or tax rates. There shall also be included in
         Building Operating Expenses the cost of any capital improvement made to
         the Building by Landlord after the date of this Lease which is required
         under any governmental law or regulation or ordinance that was not
         applicable to the Building at the time it was constructed, or was
         applicable

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

         at the time of the Lease and has been amended or regulations have been
         issued thereon, amortized over such period as Landlord shall reasonably
         determine, together with an amount equal to interest at the rate of 8%
         per annum on the unamortized balance.

         If Landlord shall install a labor-saving device or other equipment
         which improves the operating efficiency of any system within the
         Building and thereby reduces Building Operating Expenses, the Landlord
         may add to Building Operating Expenses in each year during the useful
         life of such installed device or equipment an amount equal to the
         annual amortization allowance of the cost of such installed device or
         equipment as determined in accordance with applicable regulations of
         the Internal Revenue Service or generally accepted accounting
         principles, together with an amount equal to interest at the rate of 8%
         per annum on the unamortized balance thereof, provided, however, that
         the amount of such allowance and interest shall not exceed the annual
         cost or expense reduction attributed by Landlord to such installed
         device or equipment; and further provided, that in no event shall such
         allowance and interest increase Tenant's Additional Rent over what it
         would have been if such labor-saving device or other equipment had not
         been installed. Building Operating Expenses shall expressly exclude the
         following items:

         (a)      the cost of repairs made by Landlord resulting from damage,
                  destruction or condemnation of all or a portion of the
                  Building;

         (b)      the cost of preparing space in the Building for occupancy by
                  tenants;

         (c)      book depreciation on the Building;

         (d)      any amount paid for services rendered and/or materials
                  furnished to the Building to any person or entity which is in
                  excess of that which would have been reasonably paid by
                  Landlord in an arms-length transaction;

         (e)      the cost of any repair made by Landlord to remedy damage
                  caused by or resulting from the negligence of Landlord or its
                  agents, servants or employees;

         (f)      ground rent, if any;

         (g)      interest and principal amortization on mortgages presently
                  encumbering or hereafter encumbering the Property and charges
                  and fees incurred by Landlord in connection with the
                  procurement and recording of such mortgages;

         (h)      rent and additional rent paid by Landlord for its office space
                  in the Building or elsewhere and incidental expenses relating
                  to such office space;

         (i)      damages paid by Landlord and costs of litigation in connection
                  with actions by tenants for Landlord's negligence or claimed
                  breaches by it of its contractual obligations with such
                  tenants if such tenant prevails;

         (j)      the cost of repairs made by Landlord resulting from damage,
                  destruction or condemnation of all or a portion of the
                  Building, only to the extent Landlord receives insurance
                  proceeds or condemnation awards with respect thereto;

         (k)      to the extent that any employee of Landlord performs work or
                  services other than for the Building, the reasonably allocable
                  portion of his compensation with respect to work not performed
                  in connection with the Building; and

         (l)      the cost of any work or services rendered or performed by
                  Landlord for the benefit of any other tenant in the Building
                  to the extent such work or services are in excess of those to
                  be afforded or rendered to Tenant under this Lease.

3.       "Building Expense Percentage" shall mean the percentage specified in
         Item 3 of the Basic Lease Provisions, This percentage is determined by
         dividing Rentable area in the Premises, as specified in Item 2 of the
         Basic Lease Provisions by the total Rentable Area in the Building.

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

4.       "Tenant's Proportionate Share of Building Operating Expenses" shall be
         the dollar amount, if any, by which the product of Tenant's Building
         Expense Percentage multiplied by The Building Operating Expenses
         exceeds Tenant's Operating Expense Stop as specified in Item 4(c) of
         the Basic Lease Provisions.

B.       Payment Obligation. In addition to the Basic Rent specified in this
         Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent for the
         Premises, in each calendar year or partial calendar year during the
         term of this lease, an amount equal to Tenant's Proportionate Share of
         Building Operating Expenses for such calendar year.

1.       Payment of Additional Rent. Tenant's Additional Rent shall be estimated
         by Landlord, in a reasonable manner and such estimate shall not be more
         than 105% of the actual operating expenses for the prior year (however
         the foregoing cap on the estimate shall not constitute a cap on the
         actual amount due), and written notice thereof shall be given to Tenant
         at least thirty (30) days prior to the Commencement Date or the
         beginning of each calendar year, as the case may be, or as soon
         thereafter as is reasonably possible. For any such remainder of the
         calendar year after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
         each month, at the same time the Basic Rent is due, an amount equal to
         the amount of such estimated Additional Rent for the remainder of such
         calendar year divided by the number of months remaining in such year,
         and for each calendar year thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
         each month, at the same time the Basic Rent is due, an amount equal to
         one-twelfth (1/12) of the estimated annual Additional Rent due.

2.       Revisions in Estimated Additional Rent. If Building Operating Expenses
         increase during a calendar year, Landlord may revise the Estimated
         Additional Rent during such year by giving Tenant written notice to
         that effect, and thereafter Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in each of
         the remaining months of such year, an additional amount equal to the
         amount of such increase in the estimated Additional Rent divided by the
         number of months remaining in such year.

3.       Adjustments to Actual Additional Rent. Within ninety (90) days after
         the end of each calendar year or as soon thereafter as is reasonably
         possible, Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant a statement
         showing Tenant's actual Additional Rent. Within thirty (30) days after
         receipt of the aforementioned statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord,
         or Landlord shall credit against the next Additional Rent payment or
         payments due from Tenant, as the case may be, the difference between
         Tenant's actual Additional Rent for the preceding calendar year and the
         estimated Additional Rent paid by Tenant during such year.

C.       Rent. The Basic Rent, the Additional Rent, and all other sums required
         to be paid by Tenant hereunder, including any sums due for construction
         in the Premises, are sometimes collectively referred to as, and shall
         constitute, "Rent". Rent shall be paid by Tenant when due, without
         prior demand therefor, and without deduction or setoff unless otherwise
         specifically provided herein, at the office of the building manager or
         at such other place as Landlord may designate.

         In the event any installment of Rent under this Lease shall not be paid
         when due, then further Rent in the amount of Ten Cents (.10) per each
         dollar so overdue may be charged by Landlord in consideration of
         Landlord's administration expense and time consumed incident to the
         handling of such overdue installment or Rent. Acceptance of such
         further Rent shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant's default
         with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from
         exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

of the Premises. If any portion of said deposit is so used or applied, Tenant
shall, within five (5) days of demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an
amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to its original amount and
Tenant's failure to do so shall constitute a default hereunder by Tenant. If

of any character, governmental regulation, moratorium or other government;
action, inability by exercise of reasonable diligence to obtain electricity,

of such failure, stoppage or interruption of any such service. In the event of

sublease proposed by Tenant will be the responsibility of Tenant and will be
paid by Tenant within five (5) days of receipt of an invoice from Landlord. In

this Lease, Landlord at its option and without any obligation to do so, may
require any subtenant to attorn to Landlord, in which event Landlord shall

exercise of said option to the termination of such sublease; provided, however,
Landlord shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or security deposit paid by
such subtenant to Tenant or for any other prior defaults or Tenant under such
sublease.

permitted assignment or sublease (or a combination of the rent payable under
such assignment or sublease plus any bonus or any other consideration therefor
or any payment, incident thereto) exceeds the Rent payable under the Lease for
such space, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all such excess rent and other excess
consideration within ten (10) days following receipt thereof by Tenant.

A.       This Lease is subject and subordinate to any lease wherein Landlord is
         the tenant and to the liens of any and all mortgage or deeds of trust,
         regardless of whether such lease, mortgages or deeds of trust now exist
         or may hereafter be created with regard to all or any part of the
         Building, and to any and all advances to be made thereunder, and to the
         interest thereon, and all modifications, consolidations, renewals,
         replacements and extensions thereof. Tenant also agrees that any
         lessor, mortgagee or trustee may elect to have this Lease prior to any

         trustee to Tenant to that effect, this Lease shall be deemed prior to
         the said lease, mortgage or deed of trust, whether this Lease is dated
         prior to or subsequent to the date of said lease, mortgage or trust
         deed.

         and recognize such purchaser or assignee or mortgagee as Landlord under
         this Lease.

D.       The above subordination and attornment clauses shall be self-operative
         and no further instruments of subordination or attornment need be
         required by any mortgagee, trustee, lessor, purchaser or assignee. In
         confirmation thereof, Tenant agrees that, upon the request of Landlord,
         or any such lessor, mortgagee, trustee, purchaser or assignee, Tenant
         shall execute and deliver whatever instruments may be required for such
         purposes and to carry out the intent of this Section.

following remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided at law
or in equity:

A.       Landlord may terminate this Lease and without further notice repossess
         the Premises and be entitled to recover all damages incurred by
         Landlord by reason of Tenant's default including, but not limited to, a
         sum of money equal to the total of (1) the cost of recovering the
         Premises, (2) the unpaid Rent earned at the time of termination, plus
         interest thereon, (3) Late Charges on unpaid Rent and accrued interest
         thereon, (4) the balance of the Rent for the remainder of the term, (5)
         costs of reletting and refurbishing, and (6) any other sum of money and
         damages owed by Tenant to Landlord.

B.       Landlord may immediately terminate Tenant's right of possession of the
         Premises but not terminate the Lease, and without notice or demand
         enter upon the Premises or any part thereof and take absolute
         possession of the same, expel or remove Tenant and any other person or
         entity who may be occupying the Premises, by force if necessary, change
         the locks, and at Landlord's option. Landlord may relet the Premises or
         any part thereof for such terms and such rents as Landlord may
         reasonably elect. In the event Landlord shall elect to so relet, then
         rent received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first,
         to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from
         Tenant to Landlord, second, to the payment of any cost of such
         reletting, including, without limitation, refurbishing costs and
         leasing, commissions, and third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid
         hereunder, and Tenant shall satisfy and pay any deficiency upon demand
         therefor from time to time. Any entry into and possession of the
         Premises by Landlord under this Article shall be without liability or
         responsibility for damages to Tenant and shall not be in lieu of or in
         substitution for any other rights of Landlord hereunder or at law or in
         equity Tenant further agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover any
         sums due under the terms of this Article and that no recovery of any
         portion due Landlord hereunder shall be any defense to any subsequent
         action brought for any amount not therefore reduced to judgment in
         favor of Landlord. reletting of the Premises shall not be construed as
         an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease and,
         notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at
         any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous
         breach.

Tenant shall pay any Landlord's costs, charges and expenses, including the fees
of legal counsel, agents and others retained by Landlord, incurred in enforcing
Tenant's obligations hereunder or incurred by Landlord in any litigation,
negotiation or transaction in which Tenant causes Landlord to become involved or
concerned, including,

                                       17
<PAGE>   18

but not limited to, all attorney's fees and any other costs and expenses
incurred in the preparation and service of notices of default and consultations
in connection therewith, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced
in connection with such default.

SECTION 13.03. LANDLORD'S LIEN AND SECURITY INTEREST. To assure payment of Rent
and all other sums due hereunder and which may become due hereafter, and to
assure faithful performance of all other covenants of this Lease, Tenant hereby
grants to Landlord an express contract lien on and security interest in and to
all present and future receivables of Tenant and all property, chattels or
merchandise now or hereafter owned by Tenant which may be placed on the
Premises, including, but not limited to, all equipment, inventory and fixtures
now owned or hereafter acquired. Landlord's lien and security interest shall
continue in such property of Tenant so long as Tenant is indebted to Landlord
under the terms of this Lease, regardless of whether the Tenant moves from the
Premises or such property is removed from the Premises. Landlord's lien and
security interest also extends to all proceeds of any insurance which may accrue
to Tenant by reason of damage or destruction of any such property. Landlord
shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Texas
Business and Commerce Code and other laws of Texas, and this lien and security
interest may be foreclosed as provided in the Texas Business and Commerce Code
or by judicial process. Tenant will be in default under this security agreement
at such time as Tenant may be in default under this Lease, said events of
default having been described in other parts of this Lease. The use of one
foreclosure procedure shall not be a bar to foreclosure by any other procedure.
Tenant shall execute all security agreements, financing statements and other
documents as required by Landlord to secure Landlord's rights established
herein. The lien and security interest herein granted shall be cumulative of and
in addition to any statutory lien rights in favor of Landlord, now or hereafter
existing.

SECTION 13.04. DEFAULTS BY LANDLORD. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease,
Landlord shall be in default under this Lease if Landlord fails to perform any
of its obligations hereunder and said failure continues for a period of thirty
(30) days after written notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord (unless such
failure cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days and Landlord shall
have commenced to cure said failure within said thirty (30) days and continues
diligently to pursue the curing of the same). If Landlord shall be in default
under this Lease and, if as a consequence of such default, Tenant shall recover
a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall be satisfied only out of
the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Building as the same may then
be encumbered and Landlord shall not be liable for any deficiency. In no event
shall Tenant have the right to levy execution against any property of Landlord
other than its interest in the Building as herein before expressly provided.

                                     NOTICES

All notices which Landlord or Tenant may be required, or may desire, to serve on
the other shall be in writing and may be served, as an alternative to personal
service, by depositing the same with the U. S. Postal Service, by registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: (i) to Landlord at the
address set forth in Item 11 of the Basic Lease Provisions; and (ii) prior to
the Commencement Date of this Lease, to Tenant at the address set forth in Item

for other purposes during the term of this Lease, Tenant agrees to relocate to
other space in the Building provided such other space is comparable in size and
finish to the Premises. Landlord shall pay reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of
any such relocation, including the expenses of moving and reconstruction of all
Tenant-furnished and Land-furnished improvements. In the event of such
relocation, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect without any
change in the terms or other conditions, but with the new location substituted
for the old location set forth in Item 2 of the Basic Lease Provisions and on
Exhibit "A". Landlord acknowledges that it may only relocate Tenant one time
during the term of this Lease and will give Tenant ninety (90) days notice prior
to the proposed relocation.

SECTION 15.03. WAIVER. No waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or
of any breach of Tenant hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other
provision hereof, or of any subsequent breach by Tenant of the same or any other
provision. Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring
Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the
obtaining of Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act of Tenant.
No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord's agents during the term of this
Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, unless done
in writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of the keys to any employee or agent
of Landlord shall not operate as a termination of the Lease or a surrender of
the Premises. The acceptance of any Rent by Landlord following a breach of this
Lease by Tenant shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of such breach or any
other breach unless such waiver is expressly stated in writing signed by
Landlord.

SECTION 15.04. INSOLVENCY OR BANKRUPTCY. In no event shall this Lease be
assigned or assignable by operation of law and in no event shall this Lease be

whether meritorious or not, arising in respect to broker(s) not so named.

SECTION 15.09. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Lease or the application
thereof to any person or circumstances shall be invalid or unenforceable to any
extent, the remainder of this Lease and the application of such provisions to
other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall be
enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.

SECTION 15.10. NAME. Tenant shall not, without the written consent of Landlord,

business to be conducted by Tenant in the Premises, and in no event shall Tenant
acquire any rights in or to such names.

Landlord which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the highest rate

the provisions hereof.

 SECTION 15.14. DEFINED TERMS AND MARGINAL READINGS. The words "Landlord" and

part of this Lease shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation
of any part hereof.

         or other applicable governmental standards cause the specific Materials
         so identified to be classified or identified as toxic or hazardous
         materials and shall otherwise deal with all toxic or hazardous
         materials at the leased Premises, Building or Project in a manner that

         occupancy of the leased Premises and that any redemption or controls at

         if Tenant's acts, negligence, breach of this provision or business
         operations directly and materially expand the scope of or materially
         worsen any contamination from toxic or hazardous materials, then Tenant
         shall clean-up, remove and dispose of the material causing the
         violation, in compliance with all applicable governmental standards,
         laws, rules and regulations and repair any damage to the leased

         otherwise closed (i.e., weekends or holidays).

C.       Inspections. Landlord shall have the right to periodically inspect,

         for the presence of hazardous or toxic materials including such studies
         and investigations, tests and surveys, and engage such specialists as
         Landlord deems appropriate to fairly evaluate the leased Premises and
         any risk from hazardous or toxic materials. In connection with any
         inspections, samples, surveys or tests to be performed by Landlord,
         Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's business
         operations at the leased Premises and Shall repair any damage to
         Tenant's property, inventory or fixtures damaged as a result of such
         inspections, samples, surveys or tests and shall furnish Tenant on

         materials as presently set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
         ("EPA") or the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration
         ("OSHA"). Landlord makes no representations or warranties whatsoever to
         Tenant regarding: (i) the hazardous substance surveys [including,
         without limitation, the contents, accuracy and/or scope thereof and
         Landlord has informed Tenant that said hazardous substance surveys are
         not comprehensive surveys of the Building for all forms of hazardous or
         toxic materials, including but not limited to asbestos containing
         materials, and cannot be relied upon as a representation that there are
         no hazardous or toxic materials at the leased Premises or Building,
         whether addressed therein or not], or (ii) the presence or absence of
         toxic or hazardous materials in, at, or under the leased Premises, the
         Building, or the Project. Tenant: (x) shall not rely on and Tenant
         hereby represents to Landlord that it has not relied on the hazardous

                            LET'S PLAY SPORTS, INC.

            Representative's Warrant for the Purchase of Common Stock

No. UW-001                                      60,000 Representative's Warrants

     THIS CERTIFIES that, for receipt in hand of $10 and other value received,
SCHNEIDER SECURITIES, INC. (the "Holder"), is entitled to subscribe for and
purchase from Let's Play Sports, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the "Company"),
upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, at any time, or from time to
time, from ______________, 2002, and before 5:00 p.m. Mountain time on
____________, 2006 (the "Exercise Period"), 60,000 shares of Common Stock (the
"Warrant Shares"), at a price of $7.98 per Warrant Share (the "Exercise Price"),
or 133% of the offering price of Common Stock sold by the Company in a public
offering (the "Public Offering") at or prior to the date hereof.

         The term the "Holder" as used herein shall include any transferee to
whom this Representative's Warrant has been transferred in accordance with the
above. As used herein the term "this Representative's Warrant" shall mean and
include this Representative's Warrant and any Representative's Warrant or
Representative's Warrants hereafter issued as a consequence of the exercise or
transfer of this Representative's Warrant in whole or in part, and the term
"Common Stock" shall mean and include the Company's Common Stock with ordinary
voting power, which class at the date hereof is publicly traded.

     1. This Representative's Warrant may not be sold, transferred, assigned,
pledged or hypothecated until _________, 2002 (12 months from the Effective Date
of the Registration

<PAGE>   2

Statement on which it is initially registered) except that it may be
transferred, in whole or in part, (i) to one or more officers or partners of the
Holder (or the officers or partners of any such partner); (ii) to a member of
the underwriting syndicate and/or its officers or partners; or (iii) by
operation of law. After _____________, 2002, this Representative's Warrant may
be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated in accordance with applicable
law.

     2.   a. This Representative's Warrant may be exercised during the Exercise
     Period as to the whole or any lesser number of Warrant Shares, by the
     surrender of this Representative's Warrant (with the election attached
     hereto duly executed) to the Company at its office at 9606 Aero Drive,
     Suite 1300, San Diego, California 92123, or such other place as is
     designated in writing by the Company, together with a certified or bank
     cashier's check payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to
     the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares for which
     this Representative's Warrant is being exercised.

          b. Upon written request of the Holder, and in lieu of payment for the
     Warrant Shares by check in accordance with paragraph 2(a) hereof, the
     Holder may exercise the Representative's Warrant (or any portion thereof)
     for and receive the number of Warrant Shares equal to a fraction, the
     numerator of which equals (i) the amount by which the Current Market Price
     of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days preceding the date of
     exercise exceeds the Exercise Price per Share, multiplied by (ii) the
     number of Warrant Shares to be purchased; the denominator of which equals
     the Current Market Price.

          c. For the purposes of any computation under this Representative's
     Warrant, the "Current Market Price" at any date shall be the closing price
     of the Common Stock on the business day next preceding the event requiring
     an adjustment hereunder. If the principal trading market for such
     securities is an exchange, the closing price shall be the reported last
     sale price on such exchange on such day provided if trading of such Common
     Stock is listed on any consolidated tape, the closing price shall be the
     reported last sale price set forth on such consolidated tape. If the
     principal trading market for such securities is the over-the-counter
     market, the closing price shall be the last reported

                                       2
<PAGE>   3

     sale price on such date as set forth by The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., or,
     if the security is not quoted on such market, the average of the closing
     bid and asked prices as set forth in the National Quotation Bureau pink
     sheets or the Electronic Bulletin Board System for such day.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is no reported last sale price or
     average closing bid and asked prices, as the case may be, on a date prior
     to the event requiring an adjustment hereunder, then the current market
     price shall be determined as of the latest date prior to such day for which
     such last sale price or average closing bid and asked prices are available.

     3. Upon each exercise of this Representative's Warrant, the Holder shall be
deemed to be the holder of record of the Warrant Shares issuable upon such
exercise, notwithstanding that the transfer books of the Company shall then be
closed or certificates representing such Warrant Shares shall not then have been
actually delivered to the Holder. As soon as practicable after each such
exercise of this Representative's Warrant, the Company shall issue and deliver
to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares issuable upon
such exercise, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee. If this
Representative's Warrant should be exercised in part only, the Company shall,
upon surrender of this Representative's Warrant for cancellation, execute and
deliver a new Representative's Warrant evidencing the right of the Holder to
purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares (or portions thereof) subject to
purchase hereunder.

     4. The Representative's Warrants shall be registered in a Representative's
Warrant Register as they are issued. The Company shall be entitled to treat the
registered holder of any Representative's Warrant on the Representative's
Warrant Register as the owner in fact thereof for all purposes and shall not be
bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such
Representative's Warrant on the part of any other person. The Representative's
Warrants shall be transferable only on the books of the Company upon delivery
thereof duly endorsed by the Holder or by its duly authorized attorney or
representative, or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment or
authority to transfer. In all cases of transfer by an attorney, executor,
administrator, guardian or other legal representative, duly authenticated
evidence of his or its authority shall be produced. Upon any registration of
transfer, the

                                       3
<PAGE>   4

Company shall deliver a new Representative's Warrant or Representative's
Warrants to the person entitled thereto. The Representative's Warrants may be
exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for another Representative's
Warrant, or other Representative's Warrants of different denominations, of like
tenor and representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a like number of
Warrant Shares (or portions thereof) upon surrender to the Company or its duly
authorized agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no
obligation to cause the Representative's Warrants to be transferred on its books
to any person if, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, such transfer does
not comply with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"), or applicable state blue sky laws and the rules and regulations
thereunder.

     5. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for
the exercise of this Representative's Warrant, such number of shares of Common
Stock as shall, from time to time, be sufficient therefor. The Company covenants
that all Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Representative's Warrant
shall be validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, and free of preemptive
rights.

     6.  a. If the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding Common
     Stock by recapitalization, reclassification or split-up thereof, the number
     of Warrant Shares subject to this Representative's Warrant immediately
     prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately increased, and if the
     Company shall at any time combine the outstanding Common Stock by
     recapitalization, reclassification or combination thereof, the number of
     Warrant Shares subject to this Representative's Warrant immediately prior
     to such combination shall be proportionately decreased. Any corresponding
     adjustment to the Exercise Price shall become effective at the close of
     business on the record date for such subdivision or combination.

          b. If the Company after the date hereof shall distribute to the
     holders of its Common Stock any securities or other assets (other than a
     distribution of Common Stock or a cash distribution made as a dividend
     payable out of earnings or out of any earned surplus legally available for
     dividends under the laws of the jurisdiction of

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

     incorporation of the Company), the Board of Directors shall be required to
     make such equitable adjustment in the Exercise Price in effect immediately
     prior to the record date of such distribution as may be necessary to
     preserve the rights substantially proportionate to those enjoyed hereunder
     by the Holder immediately prior to such distribution. Any such adjustment
     made in good faith by the Board of Directors shall be final and binding
     upon the Holder and shall become effective as of the record date for such
     distribution.

          c. No adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares subject to this
     Representative's Warrant shall be required unless such adjustment would
     require an increase or decrease in such number of Warrant Shares of at
     least 1% of the then adjusted number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
     exercise of this Representative's Warrant, provided, however, that any
     adjustments which by reason of the foregoing are not required at the time
     to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account and included in
     determining the amount of any subsequent adjustment; and provided further,
     however, that in case the Company shall at any time subdivide or combine
     the outstanding Common Stock or issue any additional Common Stock as a
     dividend, said percentage shall forthwith be proportionately increased in
     the case of a combination or decreased in the case of a subdivision or
     dividend of Common Stock so as to appropriately reflect the same. If the
     Company shall make a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the
     purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution and
     legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution
     then no adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares subject to this
     Representative's Warrant shall be required by reason of the making of such
     record.

          d. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise
     of this Representative's Warrant is adjusted as provided herein, the
     Exercise Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest one tenth of a cent) by
     respectively multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such
     adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
     Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Representative's
     Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and the denominator of which
     shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately thereafter.

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

          e. In case of any reclassification of the outstanding Common Stock
     (other than a change covered by (a) hereof or which solely affects the par
     value of such Common Stock) or in the case of any merger or consolidation
     of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation
     or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does
     not result in any reclassification or capital reorganization of the
     outstanding Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to
     another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or
     substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is
     dissolved, the Holder of this Representative's Warrant shall have the right
     thereafter (until the expiration of the right of exercise of this
     Representative's Warrant) to receive upon the exercise hereof, for the same
     aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder immediately prior to such event,
     the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property
     receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization, merger or
     consolidation, or upon the dissolution following any sale or other
     transfer, by a holder of the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon the
     exercise of this Representative's Warrant immediately prior to such event;
     and if any reclassification also results in a change in Common Stock
     covered by (a) above, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to both
     this paragraph (e) and paragraph (a). The provisions of this paragraph (e)
     shall similarly apply to successive re-classifications, or capital
     reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers.

          If the Company after the date hereof shall issue or agree to issue
     Common Stock, options or convertible securities, other than as described
     herein, and such issuance or agreement would in the opinion of the Board of
     Directors of the Company materially affect the rights of the Holders of the
     Representative's Warrants, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant
     Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Representative's Warrants shall be
     adjusted in such matter, if any, and at such time as the Board of Directors
     of the Company, in good faith, may determine to be equitable in the
     circumstances. The minutes or unanimous consent approving such action shall
     set forth the Board of Director's determination as to whether an adjustment
     is warranted and the

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

     manner of such adjustment. In the absence of such determination, any Holder
     may request in writing that the Board of Directors make such determination.
     Any such determination made in good faith by the Board of Directors shall
     be final and binding upon the Holders. If the Board fails, however, to make
     such determination within sixty (60) days after such request, such failure
     shall be deemed a determination that an adjustment is required.

          f. i. Upon occurrence of each event requiring an adjustment of the
     Exercise Price and of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon
     exercise of this Representative's Warrant in accordance with, and as
     required by, the terms hereof, the Company shall forthwith employ a firm of
     certified public accountants (who may be the regular accountants for the
     Company) who shall compute the adjusted Exercise Price and the adjusted
     number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such adjusted Exercise Price by
     reason of such event in accordance herewith. The Company shall give to each
     Holder of the Representative's Warrants a copy of such computation which
     shall be conclusive and shall be binding upon such Holders unless contested
     by Holders by written notice to the Company within thirty (30) days after
     receipt thereof.

          ii. In case the Company after the date hereof shall propose (A) to pay
     any dividend payable in stock to the holders of its Common Stock or to make
     any other distribution (other than cash dividends) to the holders of its
     Common Stock or to grant rights to subscribe to or purchase any additional
     shares of any class or any other rights or options to holders of its Common
     Stock, (B) to effect any reclassification involving merely the subdivision
     or combination of outstanding Common Stock, or (C) any capital
     reorganization or any consolidation or merger, or any sale, transfer or
     other disposition of its property, assets and business substantially as an
     entirety, or the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company,
     then in each such case, the Company shall obtain the computation described
     above and if an adjustment to the Exercise Price is required, the Company
     shall notify the Holders of the Representative's Warrants

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

     of such proposed action, which shall specify the record date for any such
     action or if no record date is established with respect thereto, the date
     on which such action shall occur or commence, or the date of participation
     therein by the holders of Common Stock if any such date is to be fixed, and
     shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably
     necessary to indicate the effect of such action on the Exercise Price and
     the number, or kind, or class of shares or other securities or property
     obtainable upon exercise of this Representative's Warrant after giving
     effect to any adjustment which will be required as a result of such action.
     Such notice shall be given at least twenty (20) days prior to the record
     date for determining holders of the Common Stock for purposes of any such
     action, and in the case of any action for which a record date is not
     established then such notice shall be mailed at least twenty (20) days
     prior to the taking of such proposed action.

          iii. Failure to file any certificate or notice or to give any notice,
     or any defect in any certificate or notice, shall not effect the legality
     or validity of the adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the number, or
     kind, or class of shares or other securities or property obtainable upon
     exercise of the Representative's Warrants or of any transaction giving rise
     thereto.

     g. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares
upon any exercise of the Representative's Warrants. As to any final fraction of
a Share which the Holder of a Representative's Warrant would otherwise be
entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment
in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the
market price of a share of such stock on the business day preceding the day of
exercise. The Holder of a Representative's Warrant, by his acceptance of a
Representative's Warrant, expressly waives any right to receive any fractional
Warrant Shares.

     h. Regardless of any adjustments pursuant to this section in the Exercise
Price or in the number, or kind, or class of shares or other securities or other
property obtainable upon exercise of a Representative's Warrant, a
Representative's Warrant may

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

     continue to express the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares
     obtainable upon exercise at the same price and number of Warrant Shares as
     are stated herein.

          i. The number of Warrant Shares, the Exercise Price and all other
     terms and provisions of the Company's agreement with the Holder of this
     Representative's Warrant shall be determined exclusively pursuant to the
     provisions hereof.

          j. The above provisions of this section 6 shall similarly apply to
     successive transactions which require adjustments.

          k. Notwithstanding any other language to the contrary herein, (i) the
     anti-dilution terms of this Representative's Warrant will not be enforced
     so as to provide the Holder the right to receive, or for the accrual of,
     cash dividends prior to the exercise of this Representative's Warrant, and
     (ii) the anti-dilution terms of this Representative's Warrant will not be
     enforced in such a manner as to provide the Holder with disproportionate
     rights, privileges and economic benefits not provided to purchasers of the
     Common Stock in the Public Offering.

     7. The issuance of any Warrant Shares or other securities upon the exercise
of this Representative's Warrant and the delivery of certificates or other
instruments representing such securities, or other securities, shall be made
without charge to the Holder for any tax or other charge in respect of such
issuance. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may
be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of any
certificate in a name other than that of the Holder and the Company shall not be
required to issue or deliver any such certificate unless and until the person or
persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount
of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that
such tax has been paid.

          8. a. If, at any time after _______________, 2001 (the Effective Date
     of the Registration Statement), and ending ____________, 2008 (seven years
     after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement), the Company shall
     file a registration statement (other than on Form S-4, Form S-8, or any
     successor form) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
     "Commission") while Warrant Shares are available for purchase upon exercise
     of this Representative's Warrant or while any Warrant Shares

                                       9
<PAGE>   10

     (collectively, the Representative's Warrants and the underlying Warrant
     Shares, the "Representative's Securities") are outstanding, the Company
     shall, on two occasions only, give the Holder and all the then holders of
     such Representative's Securities at least 30 days prior written notice of
     the filing of such registration statement. If requested by the Holder or by
     any such holder in writing within 20 days after receipt of any such notice,
     the Company shall, at the Company's sole expense (other than the fees and
     disbursements of counsel for the Holder or such holder and the underwriting
     discounts, if any, payable in respect of the securities sold by the Holder
     or any such holder), register or qualify the Representative's Securities of
     the Holder or any such holders who shall have made such request
     concurrently with the registration of such other securities, all to the
     extent requisite to permit the public offering and sale of the
     Representative's Securities requested to be registered, and will use its
     best efforts through its officers, directors, auditors and counsel to cause
     such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter of any such
     offering shall advise the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the
     distribution of all or a portion of the Representative's Securities
     requested to be included in the registration concurrently with the
     securities being registered by the Company would materially adversely
     affect the distribution of such securities by the Company for its own
     account, then the Holder or any such holder who shall have requested
     registration of his or its Representative's Securities shall delay the
     offering and sale of such Representative's Securities (or the portions
     thereof so designated by such managing underwriter) for such period, not to
     exceed 90 days, as the managing underwriter shall request, provided that no
     such delay shall be required as to any Representative's Securities if any
     securities of the Company are included in such registration statement for
     the account of any person other than the Company and the Holder unless the
     securities included in such registration statement for such other person
     shall have been reduced pro rata to the reduction of the Representative's
     Securities which were requested to be included in such registration.

                                       10
<PAGE>   11

               b. If at any time after ___________, 2001 (the Effective Date of
          the Registration Statement), and before ___________, 2006 (five years
          after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement), the Company
          shall receive a written request from holders of Representative's
          Securities who, in the aggregate, own (or upon exercise of all
          Representatives Warrants will own) a majority of the total number of
          Warrant Shares, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, prepare
          and file with the Commission a registration statement sufficient to
          permit the public offering and sale of the Representative's
          Securities, and will use its best efforts through its officers,
          directors, auditors and counsel to cause such registration statement
          to become effective as promptly as practicable; provided, however,
          that the Company shall only be obligated to file and obtain
          effectiveness of one such registration statement for which all
          expenses incurred in connection with such registration (other than the
          fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holder or such holders and
          underwriting discounts, if any, payable in respect of the
          Representative's Securities sold by the Holder or any such holder)
          shall be borne by the Company.

               c. In the event of a registration pursuant to the provisions of
          this paragraph 8, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the
          Representative's Securities so registered to be registered or
          qualified for sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such
          jurisdictions as the Holder or such holders may reasonably request;
          provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify
          to do business in any state by reason of this paragraph 8(c) in which
          it is not otherwise required to qualify to do business and provided
          further, that the Company has no obligation to qualify the
          Representative's Securities where such qualification would cause any
          unreasonable delay or expenditure by the Company.

               d. The Company shall keep effective any registration or
          qualification contemplated by this paragraph 8 and shall from time to
          time amend or supplement each applicable registration statement,
          preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, application, document and
          communication for such period of time as shall be required to permit
          the Holder or such holders to complete the offer and sale of the
          Representative's Securities

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

          covered thereby. The Company shall in no event be required to keep any
          such registration or qualification in effect for a period in excess of
          nine months from the date on which the Holder and such holders are
          first free to sell such Representative's Securities; provided,
          however, that if the Company is required to keep any such registration
          or qualification in effect with respect to securities other than the
          Representative's Securities beyond such period, the Company shall keep
          such registration or qualification in effect as it relates to the
          Representative's Securities for so long as such registration or
          qualification remains or is required to remain in effect in respect of
          such other securities.

               e. In the event of a registration pursuant to the provisions of
          this paragraph 8, the Company shall furnish to the Holder and to each
          such holder such reasonable number of copies of the registration
          statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case,
          including all exhibits), such reasonable number of copies of each
          prospectus contained in such registration statement and each
          supplement or amendment thereto (including each preliminary
          prospectus), all of which shall conform to the requirements of the Act
          and the rules and regulations thereunder, and such other documents as
          the Holder or such holders may reasonably request in order to
          facilitate the disposition of the Representative's Securities included
          in such registration.

               f. In the event of a registration pursuant to the provisions of
          this paragraph 8, the Company shall furnish the Holder and each holder
          of any Representative's Securities so registered with an opinion of
          its counsel to the effect that (i) the registration statement has
          become effective under the Act and no order suspending the
          effectiveness of the registration statement, preventing or suspending
          the use of the registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, any
          final prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto has been
          issued, nor to such counsel's actual knowledge has the Securities and
          Exchange Commission or any securities or blue sky authority of any
          jurisdiction instituted or threatened to institute any proceedings
          with respect to such an order and (ii) the registration statement and
          each prospectus forming a part thereof (including each preliminary
          prospectus), and any amendment or supplement thereto,

                                       12
<PAGE>   13

     complies as to form with the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.
     Such counsel shall also provide a Blue Sky Memorandum setting forth the
     jurisdictions in which the Representative's Securities have been registered
     or qualified for sale pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 8(c).

         g. The Company agrees that until all the Representative's Securities
     have been sold under a registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under
     the Act, it shall keep current in filing all reports, statements and other
     materials required to be filed with the Commission to permit holders of the
     Representative's Securities to sell such securities under Rule 144.

         h. The Holder and any holders who propose to register their
     Representative's Securities under the Act shall execute and deliver to the
     Company a selling stockholder questionnaire on a form to be provided by the
     Company.

         i. The Company shall not be required by the terms hereof to file a
     Registration Statement if, in the opinion of counsel to the holders of the
     Representative's Warrants and Warrant Shares and counsel for the Company
     (or, should they not agree, in the opinion of another counsel experienced
     in securities law matters acceptable to counsel for the holders of
     Representative's Warrants and Warrant Shares and the Company), the proposed
     public offering or other transfer as to which such Registration Statement
     is requested to be filed is exempt from applicable federal and state
     securities laws, rules, regulations and would result in unaffiliated
     purchasers or transferees obtaining securities that are not "restricted
     securities" as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Act.

     9. a. Subject to the conditions set forth below, the Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, any holder of any of the
Representative's Securities, their officers, directors, partners, employees,
agents and counsel, and each person, if any, who controls any such person within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), from and against any and all loss,
liability, charge, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (which shall include,
for all purposes of this Section 9, but not be limited to,

                                       13
<PAGE>   14

attorneys' fees, expert witness fees, and any and all expense whatsoever
incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation,
commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid
in settlement of any claim or litigation), as and when incurred, arising out of,
based upon, or in connection with (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained (A) in any registration statement,
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus (as from time to time amended and
supplemented), or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (B) in any application
or other document or communication (in this Section 9 collectively called an
"application") executed by or on behalf of the Company or based upon written
information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction
in order to register or qualify any of the Representative's Securities under the
securities or blue sky laws thereof or filed with the Commission or any
securities exchange; or any omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, unless such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished to the Company with respect to
the Holder or any holder of any of the Representative's Securities by or on
behalf of such person expressly for inclusion in any registration statement,
preliminary prospectus, or final prospectus, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or in any application, as the case may be, or (ii) any breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this
Representative's Warrant. The foregoing agreement to indemnify shall be in
addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have, including liabilities
arising under this Representative's Warrant.

     If any action is brought against the Holder or any holder of any of the
Representative's Securities or any of its officers, directors, partners,
employees, agents or counsel, or any controlling persons of such person (an
"indemnified party") in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the
Company pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, such indemnified party or parties
shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the institution of such action
(but the failure so to notify shall not relieve the

                                       14
<PAGE>   15

Company from any liability it may otherwise have to Holder or any holder of any
of the Representative's Securities) and the Company shall promptly assume the
defense of such action, including the employment of counsel (reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnified party or parties) and payment of expenses. Such
indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own
counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at
the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless the employment of such
counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with
the defense of such action or the Company shall not have promptly employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party or parties to have
charge of the defense of such action or such indemnified party or parties shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available
to it or them or to other indemnified parties which are different from or
additional to those available to the Company, in any of which events such fees
and expenses shall be borne by the Company and the Company shall not have the
right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party or
parties. Anything in this paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company
shall not be liable for any settlement of any such claim or action effected
without its written consent.

          b. The Holder and each holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who shall
have signed any registration statement covering the Representative's Securities
held by the Holder and each holder and each other person, if any, who controls
the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the
Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to
the Holder and each holder in paragraph 9(a), but only with respect to
statements or omissions, if any, made in any registration statement, preliminary
prospectus, or final prospectus (as from time to time amended and supplemented),
or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company with respect
to the Holder and each holder by or on behalf of the Holder and each holder
expressly for inclusion in any such registration statement, preliminary

                                       15
<PAGE>   16

     prospectus, or final prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or
     in any application, as the case may be. If any action shall be brought
     against the Company or any other person so indemnified based on any such
     registration statement, preliminary prospectus, or final prospectus, or any
     amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, and in respect of
     which indemnity may be sought against the Holder and each holder pursuant
     to this paragraph 9(b), the Holder and each holder shall have the rights
     and duties given to the Company, and the Company and each other person so
     indemnified shall have the rights and duties given to the indemnified
     parties, by the provisions of paragraph 9(a).

          c. To provide for just and equitable contribution, if (i) an
     indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to paragraph
     9(a) or 9(b) (subject to the limitations thereof) but it is found in a
     final judicial determination, not subject to further appeal, that such
     indemnification may not be enforced in such case, even though this
     Agreement expressly provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) any
     indemnified or indemnifying party seeks contribution under the Act, the
     Exchange Act or otherwise because the indemnification provided for in this
     Section 9 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by the Company and the
     Holder and any holder, then the Company (including for this purpose any
     contribution made by or on behalf of any director of the Company, any
     officer of the Company who signed any such registration statement and any
     controlling person of the Company), as one entity, and the Holder and any
     holder of any of the Representative's Securities included in such
     registration in the aggregate (including for this purpose any contribution
     by or on behalf of the Holder or any holder), as a second entity, shall
     contribute to the losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses
     whatsoever to which any of them may be subject, on the basis of relevant
     equitable considerations such as the relative fault of the Company and the
     Holder or any such holder in connection with the facts which resulted in
     such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses. The relative fault,
     in the case of an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or
     alleged omission, shall be determined by, among other things, whether such
     statement, alleged statement, omission or alleged omission relates

                                       16
<PAGE>   17

     to information supplied by the Company, by the Holder or by any holder of
     Representative's Securities included in such registration, and the parties'
     relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
     correct or prevent such statement, alleged statement, omission or alleged
     omission. The Company and the Holder agree that it would be unjust and
     inequitable if the respective obligations of the Company and the Holder for
     contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation of the
     aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (even if the
     Holder and the other indemnified parties were treated as one entity for
     such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not reflect
     the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph 9(c). No person
     guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
     11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is
     not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this
     paragraph 9(c), each person, if any, who controls the Holder or any holder
     of any of the Representative's Securities within the meaning of Section 15
     of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act and each officer, director,
     partner, employee, agent and counsel of each such person, shall have the
     same rights to contribution as such person and each person, if any, who
     controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section
     20(a) of the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have
     signed any such registration statement, and each director of the Company
     shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each
     case to the provisions of this paragraph 9(c). Anything in this paragraph
     9(c) to the contrary notwithstanding, no party shall be liable for
     contribution with respect to the settlement of any claim or action effected
     without its written consent. This paragraph 9(c) is intended to supersede
     any right to contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise.

     10. Unless the Representative's Securities have been registered or an
exemption from such registration is available, the Warrant Shares issued upon
exercise of the Representative's Warrants shall be subject to a stop transfer
order and the certificate or certificates evidencing any such Warrant Shares
shall bear the following legend:

     THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
     NOR HAVE THEY BEEN REGISTERED UNDER

                                       17
<PAGE>   18

     THE SECURITIES ("BLUE SKY") LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE
     SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS THEY HAVE FIRST BEEN
     REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND UNDER THE APPLICABLE STATE
     SECURITIES ("BLUE SKY") LAWS OR UNLESS THE AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION
     FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND LAWS IS ESTABLISHED TO THE
     SATISFACTION OF THE COMPANY, WHICH MAY NECESSITATE A WRITTEN OPINION OF
     SELLER'S COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO COMPANY COUNSEL.

     11. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of any Representative's Warrant (and upon
surrender of any Representative's Warrant if mutilated), and upon reimbursement
of the Company's reasonable incidental expenses, the Company shall execute and
deliver to the Holder thereof a new Representative's Warrant of like date, tenor
and denomination.

     12. The Holder of any Representative's Warrant shall not have, solely on
account of such status, any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at
law or in equity, or to any notice of meetings of stockholders or of any other
proceedings of the Company, except as provided in this Representative's Warrant.

     13. This Representative's Warrant shall be construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Colorado, without giving effect to conflict of laws.
