  WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK    
    

THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE HEREUNDER HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT
BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE AVAILABILITY OF AN
EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 
 

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK    
    

	Number of Shares:	 	            shares
	Warrant Price:	 	$1.50 per share
	Issuance Date:	 	July 29, 2003
	Expiration Date:	 	July 28, 2006

FOR VALUE RECEIVED,            or its registered assigns (hereinafter called the "Holder") is
entitled to purchase from Odetics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), the above referenced number of shares of the Company's
Class A Common Stock (the "Common Stock"), at the Warrant Price referenced above, all subject to adjustment from time to time as described
herein. The exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to the provisions, limitations and restrictions contained herein. 

	1.
	Term and Exercise.

        1.1   Term.    This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part (but not as to any fractional
share of Common Stock), from time to time, at any time after the date which is six (6) months from the Issuance Date and prior to 5:00 p.m. on the Expiration Date set forth above. 

        1.2   Procedure for Exercise of Warrant.

        (a)   Holder
may exercise this Warrant by delivering the following to the principal office of the Company in accordance with Section 5.1  hereof: (i) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the
form attached as Schedule A,  (ii) payment of the Warrant Price then in effect for each of the shares being purchased, as designated in the Notice of Exercise, and (iii) this Warrant.
Payment
of the Warrant Price may be in cash, certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, or wire transfer of funds to the Company's account (or any combination of any of the
foregoing) in the amount of the Warrant Price for each share being purchased. 

        (b)   Notwithstanding
any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair Market Value (as defined below) is greater than the Warrant Price as of the day of exercise, the
Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of the "spread" on the shares (or the portion thereof being
canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company in accordance with Section 5.1, together with the Notice of
Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder hereof a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: 

Page 1

 

X =
Y × (FMV - WP)

        FMV 

	Where:	 	X	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock to be Issued to the Holder pursuant to this net exercise
	

 	
 	

Y	

=	
 	

the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, that portion of the Warrant requested to be exercised
	

 	
 	

FMV	

=	
 	

the Fair Market Value (as of the date of such calculation) of one share of Common Stock
	

 	
 	

WP	

=	
 	

the Warrant Price (as adjusted as of the date of such calculation)

For
purposes of this Warrant, the "Fair Market Value" of one share of the Common Stock as of a particular date shall be determined as follows:
(i) if traded on a national securities exchange or through the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Stock on
such exchange for the five trading days immediately prior to the date of exercise indicated in the Notice of Exercise (or if no reported sales took place on such day, the
last date on which any such sales took place prior to the date of exercise); (ii) if traded over-the-counter only and not on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Fair Market
Value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid and asked prices over the five trading days immediately prior to the date of exercise indicated in the Notice of Exercise (or if no reported
sales took place on such day, the last date on which any such sales took place prior to the date of exercise); and (iii) if there is no active public market, the Fair Market Value shall be the
fair market value of the Common Stock as of the date of exercise, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided that any such five trading day period referenced above
shall be extended by the number of trading days during such period on which trading in the Company's Common Stock is suspended, by, or not traded on the securities exchange, Nasdaq Stock Market or
over-the-counter market on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded. 

        1.3   Effective Date of Exercise; Delivery of Certificate.

        (a)   In
the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased, registered in the name
of the Holder or such other name or names as may be designated by the Holder if otherwise permitted under this Warrant, together with any other securities or other property which the Holder is
entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be delivered to the Holder hereof, at the Company's expense, within a reasonable time after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have
been so exercised; and, unless this Warrant has expired or has been exercised in full, a new Warrant representing the number of shares (except a remaining fractional share), if any, with respect to
which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder hereof. 

        (b)   The
person in whose name any certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of
record of such shares on the date on which the Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was received by the Company, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except
that, if the date of such surrender and payment is on a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close
of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open. 

        1.4   Fractional Shares. This Warrant may not be exercised for fractional shares; and no fractional
share of any class or series of the Company's capital stock shall be issued upon exercise of the Warrant.

	Compliance with Securities Laws.

        2.1   Own Account. The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and
the shares of Common Stock or other securities to which Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3 hereof (such shares or securities, the
"Warrant Stock") to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and
for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell, or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof or conversion thereof except under circumstances that
will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or any state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall, if reasonably requested by the
Company, confirm in writing, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased are being acquired solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee
for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. 

        2.2   Accredited Investor. Holder further acknowledges that it is familiar with the definition of
"accredited investor" in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act and certifies that Holder is an accredited investor as defined in such rule. 

        2.3   Unregistered Securities. Holder understands that neither this Warrant nor the Warrant Stock have
been registered under the Act, and therefore they may not be sold, assigned or transferred unless (i) a registration statement under the Act is in effect with respect thereto or (ii) an
exemption from registration is found to be available to the satisfaction of the Company. 

        2.4   Legends. Holder further acknowledges and agrees that the stock certificates evidencing the
Warrant Stock shall bear a restrictive legend, substantially in the following form (in addition to such other restrictive legends as are required or deemed advisable under the provisions of this
Warrant, any applicable law or regulation or any other agreement to which Holder is a party): 

"THE
SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (II) UNLESS TRANSFERRED
PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE ACT, AND ASSURANCES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO AN OPINION OF COUNSEL), IF SO REQUIRED BY THE COMPANY, ARE PROVIDED TO THE COMPANY, SATISFACTORY IN FORM AND CONTENT
TO THE COMPANY, STATING THAT SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT." 

	3.
	Adjustments.

        3.1   Subdivision or Combination of Shares. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide its
outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of shares obtainable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. Conversely, in case the outstanding Common Stock of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Price in
effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. 

Page 3

 

        3.2   Dividends in Common Stock, Other Stock or Property. If at any time or from time to time the
holders of Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received or become entitled to receive, without payment
therefor: 

        (a)   Common
Stock, options or any shares or other securities which are at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or any rights or
options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing by way of dividend or other distribution; 

        (b)   any
cash paid or payable other than as a regular cash dividend; or 

        (c)   Common
Stock or additional shares or other securities or property (including cash) by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of
shares or similar corporate rearrangement (other than Common Stock issued as a stock split or adjustments in respect of which shall be covered by the terms of  Section 3.1 above) and additional
shares, other securities or property issued in connection with a Change (as defined below) (which shall be
covered by the terms of Section 3.3 below), then and in each such case, the Holder hereof shall, upon the exercise of this Warrant, be entitled
to receive, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of stock and other securities and
property (including cash in the cases referred to in clause (b) above and this clause (c)) which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had such Holder been the holder of
record of such Common Stock as of the date on which holders of Common Stock received or became entitled to receive such shares or all other additional stock and other securities and property. 

        3.3   Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. If any recapitalization,
reclassification or reorganization of the share capital of the Company, or any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its shares
and/or assets or other transaction (including, without limitation, a sale of substantially all of its assets followed by a liquidation) shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock
shall be entitled to receive shares, securities or other assets or property (a "Change"), then, as a condition of such Change, lawful and adequate
provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore
purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby) such shares, securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the
number of outstanding Common Stock which such Holder would have been entitled to receive had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Change. The Company or its
successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other property. The new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to give effect to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3 including, without limitation, adjustments to the Warrant Price and to the number of securities or property issuable
upon exercise of the new Warrant. The provisions of this Section 3.3 shall similarly apply to successive Changes. 

        3.4   Dilutive Issuances.

        (a)   Certain Definitions. As used in this Section 3.4, the following
terms have the following respective meanings: 

        (i)    "Option" means any right, option or warrant to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible
Securities. 

        (ii)   "Convertible Securities" means any convertible note or other security directly or indirectly convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock. 

Page 4

 

        (iii)  "Issue" means to grant, issue or sell any security (including Options). 

        (iv)  "Additional Common Shares" means all Common Stock (including reissued shares) Issued (or deemed to be Issued pursuant to  Section 3.4(b)) after the date of
this Warrant. However, "Additional Common Shares" does not include (A) any Common Stock Issued in a
transaction described in Sections 3.1, 3.2, or 3.3; (B) any Common Stock Issued upon
exercise of any Options or upon conversion of any Convertible Securities outstanding on the date of this Warrant; (C) any Options or other security
Issued to officers, directors or employees of, or consultants to, the Company, pursuant to the Company's pursuant to a stock option plan, restricted stock plan or other benefit plan, arrangement or
agreement approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; (D) securities Issued in connection with (1) mergers, consolidations, acquisitions or similar business combinations approved
by the Board of Directors (but excluding shares issued for the purpose of raising capital to fund such transactions) or (2) partnering arrangements or similar strategic transactions approved by
the Board of Directors, provided that such transactions are not principally for the purpose of raising capital; (E) securities Issued to persons or entities with whom the corporation has
business relationships, including in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions approved by the Board of Directors, provided such issuances are for
other than primarily equity financing purposes; and (F) securities Issued in connection with a public offering. 

        (b)   Deemed Issuance of Additional Common Shares. The shares of Common Stock ultimately Issuable upon exercise of an Option
(including the shares of Common Stock ultimately Issuable upon conversion or exercise of a Convertible Security Issuable pursuant to an Option) are deemed to be Issued when the Option is Issued. The
shares of Common Stock ultimately Issuable upon conversion or exercise of a Convertible Security (other than a Convertible Security Issued pursuant to an Option) shall be deemed Issued upon Issuance
of the Convertible Security. The maximum amount of Common Stock Issuable is determined without regard to any future adjustments permitted under the instrument creating the Options or Convertible
Securities. 

        (c)   Adjustment of Warrant Price for Dilutive Issuances.

        (i)    Issuances. If the Company Issues Additional Common Shares after the Issuance Date and the consideration per Additional
Common Share (determined pursuant to Section 3.4(h)) is less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately before such Issue, the Warrant Price in
effect immediately before such Issue shall be reduced, concurrently with such Issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest penny) determined by multiplying the Warrant Price immediately prior to the
Issue by a fraction, 

        (A)  the
numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Issue plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate
consideration received by the Company for the Additional Common Shares would purchase at the Warrant Price in effect immediately before such Issue; 

        (B)  the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Issue plus the number of such Additional Common Shares. 

        (ii)   Securities Deemed Outstanding. For the purposes of this  Section 3.4(c), all securities issuable upon exercise of any outstanding Convertible Securities or Options
or other rights to acquire securities
of the Company shall be deemed to be outstanding. 

        (d)   No Adjustment for Issuances Following Deemed Issuances. Except as provided in Sections 3.4(e)  and (f), no additional
adjustment to the Warrant Price shall be made upon the actual exercise of Options or the actual
conversion of Convertible Securities. 

Page 5

 

        (e)   Adjustment Following Changes in Terms of Options or Convertible Securities. If the consideration payable to the Company
increases or decreases pursuant to the terms of any outstanding Options or Convertible Securities, the Warrant Price shall be recomputed to reflect such increase or decrease. The recomputation shall
be made as of the time of the Issuance of the Options or Convertible Securities. Any changes in the Warrant Price that occurred after such Issuance because other Additional Common Shares were Issued
or deemed Issued shall also be recomputed. 

        (f)    Recomputation upon Exercise of Options or Convertible Securities. The Warrant Price computed upon the original Issue of
any Options or Convertible Securities, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall be recomputed when any Options or rights of conversion under Convertible Securities expire without having
been exercised. In the case of Convertible Securities or Options, the Warrant Price shall be recomputed as if the only Additional Common Shares Issued were the shares of Common Stock actually Issued
upon the exercise of such securities, if any, and as if the only consideration received therefor was the consideration actually received upon the Issue, exercise or conversion of the Options or
Convertible Securities. In the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the Warrant Price shall be recomputed as if the only Convertible Securities Issued were the Convertible Securities actually
Issued upon the exercise thereof, if any, and as if the only consideration received therefor was the consideration actually received by the Company (determined pursuant to Section 3.4(h)), if
any, upon the Issue of the Options for the Convertible Securities. 

        (g)   Limit of Readjustments. No readjustment of the Warrant Price pursuant to  Section 3.4(e) or (f) shall increase
the Warrant Price more than the amount of any
decrease made in respect of the Issue of any Options or Convertible Securities. 

        (h)   Computation of Consideration. The consideration received by the Company for the Issue of any Additional Common Shares
shall be computed as follows: 

        (i)    Cash. Cash shall be valued at the amount of cash received by the Company, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued
interest. 

        (ii)   Property. Property other than cash shall be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of the Issue, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. 

        (iii)  Mixed Consideration. The consideration for Additional Common Shares Issued together with other property of the Company
for consideration that covers both shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. 

        (iv)  Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per Additional Common Share for Options and Convertible Securities
shall be determined by dividing: 

        (A)  the
total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company for the Issue of the Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum amount of additional
consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon
exercise of the Options or conversion of the Convertible Securities, by 

        (B)  the
maximum amount of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of
such number) ultimately Issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion of such Convertible Securities. 

        (v)   Reduction for Cost of Issuances. The foregoing amounts shall be determined after deducting all expenses paid or incurred
by the Company and all commissions and 

Page 6

 

compensation
paid and concessions and discounts allowed to underwriters, dealers or others performing similar services in connection with such Issue. 

        (i)    Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, upon request, the Company at its expense shall
promptly compute such adjustment and furnish Holder with a certificate setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based.

        4.3   Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the

to the Company or (b) in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and
