two published maturities most closely corresponding to such maturity shall be
calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment
Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line
basis, rounding in each of such relevant periods to the nearest month. For such
purposes of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical
Release published prior to the date of determination of the Make-Whole Amount
shall be used. If the format or content of the Statistical Release changes in a
manner that precludes determination of the Treasury Yield in the above manner,

Operating Partnership.

voting equity securities or (ii) the outstanding equity interests of which are

trust to defease any indebtedness or any other obligation (whether through a

     "Undepreciated Real Estate Assets" as of any date means the cost (original
cost plus capital improvements) of real estate assets of the Operating
Partnership and its Subsidiaries on such date, before depreciation and
amortization, determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP (except
that for the purposes hereof, each Subsidiary of the Operating Partnership shall
be treated as if such Subsidiary were a subsidiary under GAAP).

     "Unsecured Indebtedness" means Indebtedness which is not secured by any
Encumbrance upon any of the properties of the Operating Partnership or any of
its Subsidiaries.

                                   ARTICLE II

     Section II.1. Title of the Notes. There shall be a series of Securities
designated the "6.875% Senior Notes due 2012" and a separate series of
Securities designated the "7.750% Senior Notes due 2032" (collectively, the

Notes due 2012 initially will be limited to an aggregate principal amount of
$200,000,000 and the 7.750% Senior Notes due 2032 initially will be limited to
an aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000.

     Nothing contained in this Section 2.2 or elsewhere in this Supplemental
Indenture, or in the Notes, is intended to or shall limit execution by the
Operating Partnership or authentication or delivery by the Trustee of Notes
under the circumstances contemplated by Sections 303, 304, 305, 306, 906, 1107
and 1305 of the Indenture.

     Section II.3. Interest and Interest Rates; Maturity Date of Notes. The
6.875% Senior Notes due 2012 will bear interest at 6.875% per annum and will
mature on April 15, 2012. The 7.750% Senior Notes due 2032 will bear interest at
7.750% per annum and will mature on April 15, 2032. The Notes

Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, payable semi-annually in
arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing October 15, 2002
(each, an "Interest Payment Date"), and, if not otherwise an Interest Payment
Date, at the Stated Maturity, to the Persons in whose name the applicable Notes
are registered in the Security Register at the close of business on the
preceding March 31 or September 30 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case
may be (each, a "Regular Record Date"). Interest will be computed on the basis
of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest so payable on
any Note which is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest
Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Person in whose name
such Note is registered on the relevant Regular Record Date, and such defaulted
interest shall instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Note is
registered on the Special Record Date or other specified date determined in
accordance with the Indenture.

     If any Interest Payment Date or Stated Maturity falls on a day that is not
a Business Day, the required payment shall be made on the next Business Day as
if it were made on the date such payment was due and no interest shall accrue on
the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date
or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

     Section II.4. Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness.

     (a) The Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, incur any Indebtedness, other than intercompany Indebtedness
(representing Indebtedness to which the only parties are the Operating
Partnership and any of its Subsidiaries (but only so long as such Indebtedness
is held solely by any of the Operating Partnership and any of its
Subsidiaries)), if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such
additional Indebtedness and the application of the proceeds thereof, the
aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Operating
Partnership and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in
accordance with GAAP (except that for purposes hereof, each Subsidiary of the
Operating Partnership shall be treated as if such Subsidiary were a subsidiary
under GAAP) is greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication) (i) the
Total Assets as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Operating
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as
the case may be, most recently filed with the Commission (or, if such filing is
not permitted under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence
of such additional Indebtedness and (ii) the purchase price of any real estate
assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities
offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire
real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Indebtedness), by
the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such
calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the
incurrence of such additional Indebtedness.

     (b) The Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, incur Indebtedness secured by any Encumbrance upon any of the
property of the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries if, immediately
after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and the
application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all
outstanding Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP (except that for the
purposes hereof, each Subsidiary of the Operating Partnership shall be treated
as if such Subsidiary were a subsidiary under GAAP) which is secured by any
Encumbrance on property of the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries
is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication) (i) the Total Assets as
of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Operating Partnership's Annual
Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most
recently filed with the Commission (or, if such filing is not

                                       6
<PAGE>

permitted under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of
such additional Indebtedness and (ii) the purchase price of any real estate
assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities
offering proceeds received (to the extent that such proceeds were not used to
acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce
Indebtedness), by the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries since the
end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection
with the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness.

     (c) The Operating Partnership and its Subsidiaries may not at any time own
Total Unencumbered Assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Unsecured Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and
its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP
(except that for the purposes hereof, each Subsidiary of the Operating
Partnership shall be treated as if such Subsidiary were a subsidiary under
GAAP).

     (d) The Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, incur any Indebtedness if the ratio of Consolidated Income
Available for Debt Service to the Annual Service Charge for the four consecutive
fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional
Indebtedness is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5:1, on a pro forma
basis after giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds
therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that (i) such Indebtedness and any
other Indebtedness incurred by the Operating Partnership and its Subsidiaries
since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the
proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Indebtedness, had occurred at
the beginning of such period; (ii) the repayment or retirement of any other
Indebtedness by the Operating Partnership and its Subsidiaries since the first
day of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the beginning of
such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness
under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average
daily balance of such Indebtedness during such period); (iii) in the case of
Acquired Indebtedness or Indebtedness incurred in connection with any
acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related
acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate
adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma
calculation; and (iv) in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the
Operating Partnership or its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since
the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or
sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related
repayment of Indebtedness had occurred as of the first day of such period with
the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition
being included in such pro forma calculation.

     (e) For purposes of this Section 2.4, Indebtedness shall be deemed to be
"incurred" by the Operating Partnership or a Subsidiary of the Operating
Partnership whenever the Operating Partnership or such Subsidiary shall create,
assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect thereof.

     Section II.5. Optional Redemption. No sinking fund shall be provided for
the Notes. The Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Operating
Partnership, in whole or in part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple
thereof), at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of
the Notes being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date
and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to such Notes.

     If notice of redemption has been given as provided in the Indenture and
funds for the redemption of any Notes called for redemption shall have been made
available on the Redemption Date referred to in such notice, such Notes will
cease to bear interest on the Redemption Date and the only right of the Holders
of the Notes from and after the Redemption Date will be to receive payment of
the Redemption

                                       7

Price upon surrender of such Notes in accordance with such notice.

     Section II.6. Places of Payment. The Places of Payment where the Notes may
be presented or surrendered for payment, where the Notes may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to and upon
the Operating Partnership in respect of the Notes and the Indenture may be

on the Notes not represented by a Global Security will be made at the Corporate
Trust Office maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City
of New York, New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America
as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts; provided, however, that at the option of the Operating Partnership,
payments of interest on the Notes may be made (i) by check mailed to the address
of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security
Register or (ii) by wire transfer to an account maintained by the Person
entitled thereto located within the United States.

     Section II.8. Currency. Principal and interest on the Notes shall be

least a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Notes, as applicable, by
act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally
waive compliance with such covenant or condition. Except to the extent so

having the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects, except for
issue date, issue price and the first payment of interest thereon. Additional
Notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single
series with the previously outstanding Notes. Notice of any such issuance will
be given to the Trustee and a new supplemental indenture will be executed in
connection with the issuance of such securities.

     Section II.17. Authorized Signatories. For purposes of this Seventh
Supplemental Indenture, the first sentence of Section 303 of the Indenture is
replaced in its entirety with the following: "The Securities and any coupons
appertaining thereto shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the General
Partner by its Chairman of the Board, its President, its Chief Executive
Officer, its Chief Financial Officer or one of its Vice Presidents, under its
corporate seal reproduced thereon, and attested by its Secretary or one of its

TRUSTEE'S CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION:

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in
the within-mentioned Indenture.

                                U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Trustee

                            By:

<PAGE>

                               REVERSE OF SECURITY

Securities of this series are one of a duly authorized issue of securities of
the Operating Partnership (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to be
issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of May 13, 1997, as
supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 7, dated as of April 15, 2002 (as so
supplemented, herein called the "Indenture"), between the Operating Partnership
and U.S. Bank National Association (herein called the "Trustee," which term
includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of
the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of
the terms upon which the Securities are authenticated and delivered. This
Security is one of the series designated in the first page thereof, limited in
aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000.

Securities of this series may be redeemed at any time at the option of the
Operating Partnership, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the
sum of (i) the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus accrued
interest thereon to the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any,
with respect to such Securities.

Notice of redemption will be given by mail to Holders of Securities, not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, all as provided in
the Indenture.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or
Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the
Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire
indebtedness of the Operating Partnership on this Security and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default applicable
to the Operating Partnership, in each case, upon compliance by the Operating
Partnership with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, which provisions
apply to this Security.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall occur and be
continuing, the principal amount of the Securities may be declared due and
payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of
this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect
to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any
other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given written
notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Securities, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of
Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity and the Trustee
shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with
such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60
days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing
shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the
enforcement of any payment of the principal of, and Make-Whole Amount, if any,
and interest on the Securities on or after the respective due dates expressed
herein.

                                       A-4
<PAGE>

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Operating Partnership and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each
series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Operating
Partnership and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series of
Securities then Outstanding affected thereby. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount
of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the
Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Operating
Partnership with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults
under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the
Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and
upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Operating Partnership,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and Make-Whole
Amount, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and
in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register,
upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or
agency of the Operating Partnership in any Place of Payment where the principal
of (and Make-Whole Amount, if any) and interest on this Security are payable,
duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Operating Partnership and the Security Registrar duly
executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations
and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without
coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount
of Securities of this series of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Operating Partnership may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the
Operating Partnership, the Trustee and any agent of the Operating Partnership or
the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and
neither the Operating Partnership, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount,
if any, or interest in respect of this Security, or for any claim based hereon,
or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or
any indenture supplemental thereto, against any past, present or future
stockholder, employee, officer, director, incorporator, limited or general
partner, as such, of the Operating Partnership or the General Partner or of any
successor, either directly or through the Operating Partnership or the General
Partner or any successor, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule

                                       A-5
<PAGE>

of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for
the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

All capitalized terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES, INCLUDING THIS SECURITY, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security
Identification Procedures, the Operating Partnership has caused "CUSIP" numbers
to be printed on the Securities of this series as a convenience to the Holders
of such Securities. No representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy
of such CUSIP numbers as printed on the Securities, and reliance may be placed
only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

                               REVERSE OF SECURITY

Securities of this series are one of a duly authorized issue of securities of
the Operating Partnership (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to be
issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of May 13, 1997, as
supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 7, dated as of April 15, 2002 (as so
supplemented, herein called the "Indenture"), between the Operating Partnership
and U.S. Bank National Association (herein called the "Trustee," which term
includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of
the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of
the terms upon which the Securities are authenticated and delivered. This
Security is one of the series designated in the first page thereof, limited in
aggregate principal amount to $50,000,000.

Securities of this series may be redeemed at any time at the option of the
Operating Partnership, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the
sum of (i) the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus accrued
interest thereon to the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any,
with respect to such Securities.

Notice of redemption will be given by mail to Holders of Securities, not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, all as provided in
the Indenture.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or
Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the
Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire
indebtedness of the Operating Partnership on this Security and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default applicable
to the Operating Partnership, in each case, upon compliance by the Operating
Partnership with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, which provisions
apply to this Security.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall occur and be
continuing, the principal amount of the Securities may be declared due and
payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of
this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect
to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any
other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given written
notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Securities, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of
Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity and the Trustee
shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with
such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60
days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing
shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the
enforcement of any payment of the principal of, and Make-Whole Amount, if any,
and interest on the Securities on or after the respective due dates expressed
herein.

                                       B-4

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Operating Partnership and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each
series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Operating
Partnership and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series of
Securities then Outstanding affected thereby. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount
of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the
Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Operating
Partnership with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults
under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the
Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and
upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Operating Partnership,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and Make-Whole
Amount, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and
in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register,
upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or
agency of the Operating Partnership in any Place of Payment where the principal
of (and Make-Whole Amount, if any) and interest on this Security are payable,
duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Operating Partnership and the Security Registrar duly
executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations
and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without
coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount
of Securities of this series of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Operating Partnership may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the
Operating Partnership, the Trustee and any agent of the Operating Partnership or
the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and
neither the Operating Partnership, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount,
if any, or interest in respect of this Security, or for any claim based hereon,
or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or
any indenture supplemental thereto, against any past, present or future
stockholder, employee, officer, director, incorporator, limited or general
partner, as such, of the Operating Partnership or the General Partner or of any
successor, either directly or through the Operating Partnership or the General
Partner or any successor, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule

                                       B-5

of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for
the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

All capitalized terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES, INCLUDING THIS SECURITY, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

of such Securities. No representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy
of such CUSIP numbers as printed on the Securities, and reliance may be placed
only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

     This Warrant Certificate and each Warrant represented hereby are issued
pursuant to and are subject in all respects to the terms and conditions set
forth in the Warrant Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Please refer to the Warrant Agreement for a description of the rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities hereunder of the
Transfer Agent, the Corporation and the registered holders of the Warrants. In
the event the registered holders do not comply with the terms of the Warrant
Agreement, the Warrants shall immediately become null and void.

     The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events,
the Purchase Price set forth on the face hereof may, under certain conditions,
be adjusted. If the Purchase Price is adjusted, the Warrant Agreement provides
that the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be
adjusted so that the registered holder of each Warrant may receive the number of
shares of Common Stock of the Corporation to which it would have been entitled
upon such action if such registered holder had so exercised the Warrant
immediately prior to the event. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be
issued upon exercise of the Warrant. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock
would be issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants (or any specified portion
thereof), the Corporation shall pay an amount in cash equal to the product of
(a) such fraction and (b) the fair market value of the Common Stock, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, on the
Business Day prior to the date the Warrant is exercised.

     Upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate and similar Warrant Certificates
at the principal office of the Transfer Agent, by the registered holder hereof
in person or by an attorney duly authorized in writing, such Warrant
Certificates may be transferred or exchanged in the manner and subject to the
limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, for another Warrant Certificate
or Warrant Certificates of like tenor, evidencing in the aggregate the number of
Warrants evidenced by the Warrant Certificates so surrendered and registered in
the name or names as requested by the then registered owner thereof or by an
attorney duly authorized in writing. In the case of the exercise of less than
all the Warrants represented hereby, the registered holder shall be entitled to
receive upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate another Warrant Certificate
or Warrant Certificates for the balance of the Warrants evidenced by this
Warrant Certificate.

     Prior to the exercise of any Warrant represented hereby, the registered
holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Corporation,
including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends or
other distributions, and shall not be entitled to receive any notice of any
proceedings of the Corporation, except as provided in the Warrant Agreement.

     The Corporation and the Transfer Agent shall treat the registered holder as
the absolute owner hereof and of each Warrant represented hereby for all
purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     This Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of North Carolina
