                           THE PROGRESSIVE CORPORATION

                           6.375% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2012

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes, bonds
or other evidences of indebtedness of the Issuer (hereinafter called the
"Securities") of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued
under and pursuant to an indenture dated as of September 15, 1993, as heretofore
supplemented and amended (herein called the "Indenture"), between the Issuer and
State Street Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee (herein called the "Trustee"),
to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby
made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties
and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the
Securities. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different
series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at
different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject
to different redemption provisions (if any), may be subject to different
sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any) and may otherwise vary as in the
Indenture provided. This Note is one of a series designated as the 6.375% Senior
Notes Due 2012 of the Issuer, limited in initial aggregate principal amount to
$350,000,000.

         In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect
to the 6.375% Senior Notes Due 2012 shall have occurred and be continuing, the
principal hereof may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due
and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions
provided in the Indenture.

         The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the
Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than 66-2/3% in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding (as defined in the
Indenture) of all series to be affected (voting as one class), evidenced as in
the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions
to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the
Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights
of the Holders of the Securities of each such series; provided, however, that no
such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the final maturity of any Security,
or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of
payment of any interest thereon, or impair or affect the rights of any Holder to
institute suit for the payment thereof, without the consent of the Holder of
each Security so affected or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities,
the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture,
without the consent of the Holder of each Security so affected. It is also
provided in the Indenture that, with respect to certain

<PAGE>

defaults or Events of Default regarding the Securities of any series, prior to
any declaration accelerating the maturity of such Securities, the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of the Securities of such
series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive
any such past default or Event of Default and its consequences. The preceding
sentence shall not, however, apply to a default in the payment of the principal
of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities. Any such consent or
waiver by the Holder of this Note (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture)
shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and
owners of this Note and any Note which may be issued in exchange or substitution
herefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this
Note or such other Note.

         No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or
of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note in
the manner, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency
herein prescribed.

         The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 at the office or
agency of the Issuer at the office of the Trustee in Boston, Massachusetts, and
in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, but
without the payment of any service charge. Notes may be exchanged for a like
aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations.

         The Notes of the series designated as the 6.375% Senior Notes due 2012
are subject to redemption upon not more than 60 or less than 30 days' notice by
mail, in whole at any time or in part from time to time at the option of the
Issuer on any date (a "Redemption Date"), at a redemption price equal to the
accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the
redemption date plus the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the
Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present value of the remaining
scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Note (not including any
portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption)
discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (defined
below), plus 20 basis points.

         "Adjusted Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any date of redemption,
the rate per year equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the
Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable
Treasury Price for that date of redemption.

         "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security
selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining
term of the Securities to be redeemed that would be used, at the time of
selection and under customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of
corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the
Note.

         "Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any date of
redemption, the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the date
of redemption, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations, or if the trustee obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations, the average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.

         "Quotation Agent" means Goldman, Sachs & Co. or another Reference
Treasury Dealer appointed by the Issuer.

         "Reference Treasury Dealer" means each of Goldman, Sachs & Co. and
Salomon Smith Barney Inc. and their respective successors and, at the option of
the Issuer, other nationally recognized investment banking firms that are
primary dealers of U.S. government securities in New York City. If any of the
foregoing ceases to be a primary dealer of U.S. government securities in New
York City, the Issuer must substitute another primary dealer of U.S. government
securities.

         "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any date of redemption, the average, as determined
by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Trustee by the Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the third business day before the date of redemption.

         In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or
Notes of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be
issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

         Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note at the
office or agency of the Issuer at the office of the Trustee in Boston,
Massachusetts, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for an equal
aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange
therefor, subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without charge
except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

<PAGE>

         The Issuer, the Trustee and any authorized agent of the Issuer or the
Trustee may deem and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner of
this Note (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any
notation of ownership or other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving
payment of, or on account of, the principal hereof and, subject to the
provisions on the face hereof, interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and
neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any authorized agent of the Issuer or the
Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the
Issuer in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Note, or
because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had
against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, as such, of the
Issuer or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Issuer or
any successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional
provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable
proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released
by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof.

         Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture shall have the
respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture.

                   2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

                   2.1. MANNER OF EXERCISE; PAYMENT OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. (a)
This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any
time or from time to time prior to the Expiration Date, by surrendering to the
Company at its principal office this Warrant, with a completed Election to
Purchase Shares in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (or a reasonable
facsimile thereof) duly executed by the Holder and accompanied by payment of the
Purchase Price for the number of Common Shares specified in such form (the
"Aggregate Purchase Price"). Any partial exercise of this Warrant shall be for a
whole number of Warrant Shares only.

                   (b) Payment of the Aggregate Purchase Price may be made as
follows (or by any combination of the following): (i) in United States currency
by cash or delivery of a certified check or bank draft payable to the order of
the Company or by wire transfer to the Company, (ii) by cancellation of all or
any part of the unpaid principal amount, plus accrued interest thereon, of the
then-outstanding Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement) in an amount
equal to the Aggregate Purchase Price; PROVIDED, that any such cancellations
shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.4(b) of the Loan Agreement, (iii)
by cancellation of such number of Common Shares otherwise issuable to the Holder
upon such exercise as shall be specified for cancellation in such Election to
Purchase Shares, such that the excess of the aggregate Current Market Price of
such specified number of shares on the date of exercise over the portion of the
Aggregate Purchase Price attributable to such shares shall equal the Aggregate
Purchase Price attributable to the Common Shares to be issued upon such
exercise, in which case such excess amount shall be deemed to have been paid to
the Company and the number of shares issuable upon such exercise shall be
reduced by such number specified for cancellation, or (iv) by surrender to the
Company for cancellation certificates representing Common Shares of the Company
owned by the Holder (properly endorsed for transfer in blank) having a Current
Market Price on the date of Warrant exercise equal to the Aggregate Purchase
Price.

                   2.2. WHEN EXERCISE EFFECTIVE. Each exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business
on the Business Day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to, and
the Purchase Price shall have been received by, the Company as provided in
Section 2.1, and, to the extent permitted by law, at such time the Person or
Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Shares
(or Other Securities) shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in
Section 2.3 shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record
thereof for all purposes.

                   2.3. DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC.; CHARGES, TAXES AND
EXPENSES. (a) As soon as practicable after each exercise of this Warrant, in
whole or in part, and in any event within five Business Days thereafter, the
Company shall cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder
hereof or, subject to Section 9, as the Holder may direct,

                                      (i) a certificate or certificates for the
                   whole number of Common Shares (or Other Securities) to which
                   the Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise, and

                                       5
<PAGE>

                                      (ii) in case such exercise is for less
                   than all of the Common Shares purchasable under this Warrant,
                   a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, for the balance of
                   the Common Shares purchasable hereunder.

                   (b) Issuance of certificates for Common Shares upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Initial Holder
hereof for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense, in respect of
the issuance of such certificates, all of which such taxes and expenses shall be
paid by the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required
to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any issuance of any Warrant or
any certificate for, or any other evidence of ownership of, Warrant Shares in a
name other than that of the Initial Holder of this Warrant being exercised or
exchanged.

                   2.4. TAX BASIS. The Company and the Holder shall mutually
agree as to the tax basis of this Warrant as of the date of issuance of this
Warrant, for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the
treatment of this Warrant under such Code by each of the Company and the Holder
shall be consistent with such agreement.

                   3. ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE AND COMMON SHARES ISSUABLE
UPON EXERCISE.

                   3.1. ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES.

                  Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price as a result of the
calculations made in this Section 3, this Warrant shall thereafter evidence the
right to receive, at the adjusted Purchase Price, that number of Common Shares
(calculated to the nearest one-hundredth) obtained by dividing (i) the product
of the aggregate number of shares covered by this Warrant immediately prior to
such adjustment and the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment of the Purchase Price by (ii) the Purchase Price in effect
immediately after such adjustment of the Purchase Price.

                   3.2. ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.

                   3.2.1. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL COMMON SHARES. In case the
Company at any time or from time to time after July 17, 2001 shall issue or sell
Additional Common Shares (including Additional Common Shares deemed to be issued
pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.4 but excluding Additional Common Shares
purchasable upon exercise of Rights referred to in Section 3.10) without
consideration or for a consideration per share less than the greater of the
Purchase Price and the Current Market Price in effect immediately prior to such
issue or sale, then, and in each such case, subject to Section 3.8, the Purchase
Price shall be reduced concurrently with such issue or sale, to a price
(calculated to the nearest .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such
Purchase Price by a fraction

                   (a) The numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number
of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale and (ii)
the number of Common Shares which the aggregate consideration received by the
Company for the total number of such Additional Common Shares so issued or sold
would purchase at the greater of such Purchase Price and such Current Market
Price, and

                                       6
<PAGE>

                   (b) The denominator of which shall be the number of Common
Shares outstanding immediately after such issue or sale, provided that, for the
purposes of this Section 3.2.1, (x) immediately after any Additional Common
Shares are deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.4, such
Additional Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding, and (y) treasury shares
shall not be deemed to be outstanding.

                   3.2.2. EXTRAORDINARY DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. In the case
the Company at any time or from time to time after July 17, 2001 shall declare,
order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without
limitation, any distribution of other or additional stock or other securities or
property or Options by way of dividend or spin-off, reclassification,
recapitalization or similar corporate rearrangement) on the Common Shares other
than (a) a dividend payable in Additional Common Shares or (b) a regularly
scheduled cash dividend (at a rate not in excess of 110% of the rate of the last
regularly scheduled cash dividend theretofore paid) payable out of consolidated
earnings or earned surplus, determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, or (c) a dividend of Rights referred to in Section 3.10
hereof then, in each such case, subject to Section 3.8, the Purchase Price in
effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for
the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such
dividend or distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business
on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Purchase Price by
a fraction

                  (x) the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price
         in effect on such record date or, if the Common Shares trade on an
         ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend
         trading, less the Fair Value of such dividend or distribution
         applicable to one Common Share, and

                   (y) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market
         Price.

PROVIDED that, in the event that the amount of such dividend as so determined is
equal to or greater than 10% of such Current Market Price or in the event that
such fraction is less than 9/10ths, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment,
adequate provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive, upon Warrant
exercise, a pro rata share of such dividend based upon the maximum number of
Common Shares at the time issuable to the Holder (determined without regard to
whether the Warrant is exercisable at such time.)

                   3.3. TREATMENT OF OPTIONS AND CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. In case
the Company at any time or from time to time after July 17, 2001 shall issue,
sell, grant or assume, or shall fix a record date for the determination of
holders of any class of securities of the Company entitled to receive, any
Options or Convertible Securities (whether or not the rights thereunder are
immediately exercisable), then, and in each such case, the maximum number of
Additional Common Shares (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto,
without regard to any provisions contained therein for a subsequent adjustment
of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of
Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Common Shares issued as
of the time of such issue, sale, grant or assumption or, in case such a record
date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date (or,
if the Common Shares trade on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the
commencement of ex-dividend trading),

                                       7
<PAGE>

PROVIDED that such Additional Common Shares shall not be deemed to have been
issued unless (i) the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section
3.5) of such shares would be less than the Current Market Price in effect on the
date of and immediately prior to such issue, sale, grant or assumption or
immediately prior to the close of business on such record date (or, if the
Common Shares trade on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the
commencement of ex-dividend trading), as the case may be, and (ii) such
Additional Common Shares are not purchasable pursuant to Rights referred to in
Section 3.10, and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in any such case in which Additional
Common Shares are deemed to be issued:

                   (a) whether or not the Additional Common Shares underlying
such Options or Convertible Securities are deemed to be issued, no further
adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made upon the subsequent issue or sale
of Convertible Securities or Common Shares upon the exercise of such Options or
the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, except in the case of
any such Options or Convertible Securities which contain provisions requiring an
adjustment, subsequent to the date of the issue or sale thereof, of the number
of Additional Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities by reason of (x) a change
of control of the Company, (y) the acquisition by any Person or group of Persons
of any specified number or percentage of the voting securities of the Company or
(z) any similar event or occurrence, each such case to be deemed hereunder to
involve a separate issuance of Additional Common Shares, Options or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be;

                   (b) if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms
provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any increase in the
consideration payable to the Company, or decrease in the number of Additional
Common Shares issuable, upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof (by
change of rate or otherwise), the Purchase Price computed upon the original
issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof (or upon the occurrence of the record
date, or date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading, as the case may
be, with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall,
upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect
such increase or decrease insofar as it affects such Options, or the rights of
conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities, which are outstanding
at such time;

                   (c) upon the expiration (or purchase by the Company and
cancellation or retirement) of any such Options which shall not have been
exercised or the expiration of any rights of conversion or exchange under any
such Convertible Securities which (or purchase by the Company and cancellation
or retirement of any such Convertible Securities the rights of conversion or
exchange under which) shall not have been exercised, the Purchase Price computed
upon the original issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof (or upon the
occurrence of the record date, or date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend
trading, as the case may be, with respect thereto), and any subsequent
adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such expiration (or such cancellation or
retirement, as the case may be), be recomputed as if:

                  (i) in the case of Options for Common Shares or Convertible
         Securities, the only Additional Common Shares issued or sold were the
         Additional Common Shares, if any, actually issued or sold upon the
         exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such
         Convertible Securities and the consideration received therefor was the

                                       8
<PAGE>

         consideration actually received by the Company for the issue, sale,
         grant or assumption of all such Options, whether or not exercised, plus
         the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise,
         or for the issue or sale of all such Convertible Securities which were
         actually converted or exchanged, plus the additional consideration, if
         any, actually received by the Company upon such conversion or exchange,
         and

                  (ii) in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, only
         the Convertible Securities, if any, actually issued or sold upon the
         exercise of such Options were issued at the time of the issue or sale,
         grant or assumption of such Options, and the consideration received by
         the Company for the Additional Common Shares deemed to have then been
         issued was the consideration actually received by the Company for the
         issue, sale, grant or assumption of all such Options, whether or not
         exercised, plus the consideration deemed to have been received by the
         Company (pursuant to Section 3.5) upon the issue or sale of such
         Convertible Securities with respect to which such Options were actually
         exercised;

         (d) no readjustment pursuant to subdivision (b) or (c) above shall have
the effect of decreasing the Purchase Price by an amount in excess of the amount
of the adjustment thereof originally made in respect of the issue, sale, grant
or assumption of such Options or Convertible Securities; and

         (e) in the case of any such Options which expire by their terms not
more than 30 days after the date of issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof, no
adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made until the expiration or exercise
of all such Options, whereupon such adjustment shall be made in the manner
provided in subdivision (c) above.

         3.4. TREATMENT OF STOCK DIVIDENDS, STOCK SPLITS, ETC. In case the
Company at any time or from time to time after July 17, 2001 shall declare or
pay any dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares, or shall effect
a subdivision of the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common
Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common
Shares), then, and in each such case, Additional Common Shares shall be deemed
to have been issued (a) in the case of any such dividend, immediately after the
close of business on the record date for the determination of holders of any
class of securities entitled to receive such dividend, or (b) in the case of any
such subdivision, at the close of business on the day immediately prior to the
day upon which such corporate action becomes effective.

         3.5. COMPUTATION OF CONSIDERATION. For the purposes of this Section 3,

         (a) the consideration for the issue or sale of any Additional Common
Shares shall, irrespective of the accounting treatment of such consideration,

                  (i) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the gross
         cash proceeds to the Company, without deducting any expenses paid or
         incurred by the Company or any commissions or compensations paid or
         concessions or discounts allowed to underwriters, dealers or others
         performing similar services in connection with such issue or sale,

                                       9
<PAGE>

                  (ii) insofar as it consists of property (including securities)
         other than cash, be computed at the Fair Value thereof at the time of
         such issue or sale, and

                  (iii) in case Additional Common Shares are issued or sold
         together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company
         for a consideration which covers both, be the portion of such
         consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (i) and (ii)
         above, allocable to such Additional Common Shares, such allocation to
         be determined in the same manner that the Fair Value of property not
         consisting of cash or securities is to be determined as provided in the
         definition of 'Fair Value' herein;

         (b) Additional Common Shares deemed to have been issued pursuant to
Section 3.3, relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to
have been issued for a consideration per share determined by dividing

                  (i) the total amount, if any, received and receivable by the
         Company as consideration for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of
         the Options or Convertible Securities in question, plus the minimum
         aggregate 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 to protect
         against dilution) payable to the Company upon the exercise in full of
         such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
         Securities or, in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the
         exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion
         or exchange of such Convertible Securities, in each case computing such
         consideration as provided in the foregoing subdivision (a),

         by

                  (ii) the maximum number of Common Shares (as set forth in the
         instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained
         therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number to protect against
         dilution) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion
         or exchange of such Convertible Securities; and

         (c) Additional Common Shares deemed to have been issued pursuant to
Section 3.4, relating to stock dividends, stock splits, etc., shall be deemed to
have been issued for no consideration.

         3.6. ADJUSTMENTS FOR COMBINATIONS, ETC. In case the outstanding Common
Shares shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into
a lesser number of Common Shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior
to such combination or consolidation shall, concurrently with the effectiveness
of such combination or consolidation, be proportionately decreased.

         3.7. DILUTION IN CASE OF OTHER SECURITIES. In case any Other Securities
shall be issued or sold or shall become subject to issue or sale upon the
conversion or exchange of any stock (or Other Securities) of the Company (or any
issuer of Other Securities or any other Person referred to in Section 4) or to
subscription, purchase or other acquisition pursuant to any Options issued or
granted by the Company (or any such other issuer or Person) for a consideration
such

                                       10
<PAGE>

as to dilute, on a basis consistent with the standards established in the
other provisions of this Section 3, the purchase rights, if any, with respect to
such Other Securities, granted by this Warrant, then, and in each such case, the
computations, adjustments and readjustments provided for in this Section 3 with
respect to the Purchase Price shall be made as nearly as possible in the manner
so provided and applied to determine the amount of Other Securities from time to
time receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants, so as to protect the holders
of the Warrants against the effect of such dilution.

         3.8. DE MINIMIS ADJUSTMENTS. If the amount of any adjustment of the
Purchase Price required pursuant to this Section 3 would be less than one tenth
(1/10) of one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price in effect at the time such
adjustment is otherwise so required to be made, such amount shall be carried
forward and adjustment with respect thereto made at the time of and together
with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other
amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate a change in the Purchase
Price of at least one tenth (1/10) of one percent (1%) of such Purchase Price.
All calculations under this Warrant shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth
of a share.

         3.9. ABANDONED DIVIDEND OR DISTRIBUTION. If the Company shall take a
record of the holders of its Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to
receive a dividend or other distribution (which results in an adjustment to the
Purchase Price under the terms of this Warrant) and shall, thereafter, and
before such dividend or distribution is paid or delivered to shareholders
entitled thereto, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or
distribution, then any adjustment made to the Purchase Price by reason of the
taking of such record shall be reversed, and any subsequent adjustments, based
thereon, shall be recomputed.

         3.10. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event that the Company shall distribute "poison pill" rights pursuant to a
"poison pill" shareholder rights plan (the "Rights"), the Company shall, in lieu
of making any adjustment pursuant to Section 3.2.1 or Section 3.2.2 hereof, make
proper provision so that each Holder who exercises a Warrant after the record
date for such distribution and prior to the expiration or redemption of the
Rights shall be entitled to receive upon such exercise, in addition to the
Common Shares issuable upon such exercise, a number of Rights to be determined
as follows: (i) if such exercise occurs on or prior to the date for the
distribution to the holders of Rights of separate certificates evidencing such
Rights (the "Distribution Date"), the same number of Rights to which a holder of
a number of Common Shares equal to the number of Common Shares issuable upon
such exercise at the time of such exercise would be entitled in accordance with
the terms and provisions of and applicable to the Rights; and (ii) if such
exercise occurs after the Distribution Date, the same number of Rights to which
a holder of the number of shares into which the Warrant so exercised was
exercisable immediately prior to the Distribution Date would have been entitled
on the Distribution Date in accordance with the terms and provisions of and
applicable to the Rights.

         4. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC.

         4.1. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE OF ASSETS,
REORGANIZATION, ETC. In case the Company after the date hereof (a) shall
consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing
or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger,

                                       11
<PAGE>

or (b) shall permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the
Company and the Company shall be the continuing or surviving Person but, in
connection with such consolidation or merger, the Common Shares or Other
Securities shall be changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of
any other Person or cash or any other property, or (c) shall transfer all or
substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person, or (d) shall
effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of the Common Shares or
Other Securities (other than (i) a capital reorganization or reclassification
resulting in the issue of Additional Common Shares for which adjustment in the
Purchase Price is provided in Section 3.2.1 or 3.2.2 or (ii) issuances or sales
of shares or other securities by the Company which by the terms of this Warrant
are excluded from the definition of Additional Common Shares), then, and in the
case of each such transaction, proper provision shall be made so that, upon the
basis and the terms and in the manner provided in this Warrant, the Holder of
this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of
such transaction, shall be entitled to receive (at the aggregate Purchase Price
in effect at the time of such consummation for all Common Shares or Other
Securities issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to such consummation),
in lieu of the Common Shares or Other Securities issuable upon such exercise
prior to such consummation, the highest amount of securities, cash or other
property to which such Holder would actually have been entitled as a shareholder
upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately
prior thereto, subject to adjustments (subsequent to such consummation) as
nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in Sections 3
through 5, PROVIDED that if a purchase, tender or exchange offer shall have been
made to and accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Common
Shares, and if the Holder so designates in a notice given to the Company on or
before the date immediately preceding the date of the consummation of such
transaction, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive the highest
amount of securities, cash or other property to which it would actually have
been entitled as a shareholder if the Holder of this Warrant had exercised this
Warrant prior to the expiration of such purchase, tender or exchange offer and
accepted such offer, subject to adjustments as provided for in Section 3 through
5 hereof until the date of consummation of such purchase, tender or exchange
offer.

         4.2. ASSUMPTION OF OBLIGATIONS. Notwithstanding anything contained in
this Warrant or in the Loan Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not
effect any of the transactions described in clauses (a) through (d) of Section
4.1 unless, prior to the consummation thereof, each Person (other than the
Company) which may be required to deliver any stock, securities, cash or
property upon the exercise of this Warrant as provided herein shall assume, by
written instrument delivered to, and reasonably satisfactory to, the Holder of
this Warrant, (a) the obligations of the Company under this Warrant (and if the
Company shall survive the consummation of such transaction, such assumption
shall be in addition to, and shall not release the Company from, any continuing
obligations of the Company under this Warrant), (b) the obligations of the
Company under the Registration Rights Agreement and (c) the obligation to
deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities, cash or property as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 4, the Holder may be
entitled to receive. Nothing in this Section 4 shall be deemed to authorize the
Company to enter into any transaction not otherwise permitted by the Loan
Agreement.

                                      12

         5. NO DILUTION OR IMPAIRMENT. The Company shall not, by amendment of
its certificate of incorporation or through any consolidation, merger,
reorganization, transfer of assets, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or
any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance
of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist
in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as
may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of
this Warrant against dilution or other impairment. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) shall not permit the par value of
any shares of stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant to exceed the
amount payable therefor upon such exercise, (b) shall take all such action as
may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of stock, free from all liens,
security interests, encumbrances (in each of the foregoing cases, other than
those imposed by the Holder), taxes, preemptive rights and charges on the
exercise of the Warrants from time to time outstanding, and (c) shall not take
any action which results in any adjustment of the Purchase Price if the total
number of Common Shares (or Other Securities) issuable after the action upon the
exercise of all of the Warrants would exceed the total number of Common Shares
(or Other Securities) then authorized by the Company's certificate of
incorporation and available for the purpose of issue upon such exercise.

         6. ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment
in the number of Common Shares (or Other Securities) issuable upon the exercise
of this Warrant or in the Purchase Price, the Company at its sole expense shall
promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of
this Warrant and cause independent certified public accountants of recognized
national standing (which may be the regular auditors of the Company) selected by
the Company to verify such computation (other than any computation of the Fair
Value of property) and prepare a report setting forth such adjustment or
readjustment and showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof
and the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a
statement of (a) the consideration received or to be received by the Company for
any Additional Common Shares issued or sold or deemed to have been issued, (b)
the number of Common Shares outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale and as adjusted
and readjusted (if required by Section 3) on account thereof. The Company shall
forthwith mail a copy of each such report to each holder of a Warrant. The
Company shall also keep copies of all such reports at its principal office and
shall cause the same to be available for inspection at such office during normal
business hours by any holder of a Warrant or any prospective purchaser of a
Warrant designated by the holder thereof.

         7. NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION. In the event of:

         (a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class
of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are
entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or
any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

         (b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or
recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or
merger involving the Company and any other Person, any transaction or series of
transactions in which more than 50%

                                       13
<PAGE>

of the voting securities of the Company are transferred to another Person, or
any transfer, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets
of the Company to any other Person, or

         (c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up
of the Company,

the Company shall mail to each holder of a Warrant a notice specifying (i) the
date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of
such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such
dividend, distribution or right, and (ii) the date or expected date on which any
such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger,
transfer, sale, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take
place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of
record of Common Shares (or Other Securities) shall be entitled to exchange
their Common Shares (or Other Securities) for the securities or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization,
consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such
notice shall be mailed at least 20 days prior to the date therein specified.

         8. REGISTRATION OF COMMON SHARES. If any Common Shares required to be
reserved for purposes of exercise of this Warrant require registration with or
approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law (other
than the Securities Act) before such shares may be issued upon exercise, the
Company shall, at its expense and as expeditiously as possible, use its best
efforts to cause such shares to be duly registered or approved, as the case may
be, PROVIDED, that the Company shall not be obligated to make any filing in any
particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a
general consent to service of process in order to effect such registration or
approval unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction
in the reasonable opinion of the Company's counsel. At any such time as Common
Shares is listed on any national securities exchange, the Company shall, at its
expense, obtain promptly and maintain the approval for listing on each such
exchange, upon official notice of issuance, the Common Shares issuable upon
exercise of the then outstanding Warrants and maintain the listing of such
shares after their issuance; and the Company shall also list on such national
securities exchange, shall register under the Exchange Act and shall maintain
such listing of, any Other Securities that at any time are issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants, if and at the time that any securities of the same
class shall be listed on such national securities exchange by the Company.

         9. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.

Securities), shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in
substantially the following form:

         9.2. TRANSFER TO COMPLY WITH THE SECURITIES ACT. Restricted Securities
may not be sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or in any manner

Blue Sky laws and the terms and conditions hereof.

         9.3. NOTICE OF TRANSFER. Each Holder shall, prior to any Transfer of

         9.4. TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. The restrictions imposed by this
Section 9 on the transferability of Restricted Securities shall cease and

effective under the Securities Act and such securities shall have been disposed
of in accordance with such registration statement and applicable state
securities and blue sky laws, (b) when such securities are sold pursuant to Rule
144 (or any similar provision

<PAGE>

then in force) under the Securities Act and applicable state securities and blue
sky laws, or (c) when, in the reasonable opinion of both counsel for the Holder
and counsel for the Company, such restrictions are no longer required or
necessary in order to protect the Company against a violation of the Securities
Act or applicable state securities and blue sky laws upon any sale or other
disposition of such securities without registration thereunder. Whenever such
restrictions shall cease and terminate as to any Restricted Securities, the
Holder shall be entitled to receive from the Company, without expense, new
securities of like tenor not bearing the applicable legends required by Section
9.1.

         9.5. EXEMPT TRANSFERS. The restrictions on the transfer of this Warrant
or the Warrant Shares set forth in this Section 9 shall not apply to any
transfer made in compliance with applicable state and federal securities laws.

         10. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. The Company hereby
represents and warrants to the Holder that: (i) no event or transaction has
occurred, or is deemed to have occurred pursuant to the terms of this Warrant,
between the date of issuance of the Original Warrant through and including the
date of issuance of this Warrant that, with or without the passage of time,
would have resulted in a change in the Purchase Price or the number of Common
Shares issuable upon exercise in full of the Warrant and (ii) the Company has
not been and is not currently in breach or default under any terms of the
Original Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement.

         11. RESERVATION OF STOCK, ETC. The Company shall at all times reserve
and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this
Warrant, the number of Common Shares (or Other Securities) from time to time
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. All Common Shares (or Other Securities)
issuable upon exercise of any Warrant shall be duly authorized and, when issued
upon such exercise, shall be validly issued and, in the case of shares, fully
paid and nonassessable, with no liability on the part of the holders thereof,
and, in the case of all securities, shall be free from all liens, security
interests, encumbrances (in each of the foregoing cases, other than those
imposed by the Holder), taxes, preemptive rights and charges. The transfer agent
for the Common Shares, and every subsequent Transfer Agent for any shares of the
Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise of any of the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant, are hereby irrevocably authorized and directed at
all times until the Expiration Date to reserve such number of authorized and
unissued shares as shall be requisite for such purpose. The Company shall keep
copies of this Warrant on file with the Transfer Agent for the Common Shares and
with every subsequent Transfer Agent for any shares of the Company's capital
stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by this
Warrant. The Company shall supply such Transfer Agent with duly executed stock
certificates for such purpose. All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon the
exercise of the rights thereby evidenced shall be canceled, and such canceled
Warrants shall constitute sufficient evidence of the number of shares of stock
which have been issued upon the exercise of such Warrants. Subsequent to the
Expiration Date, no shares of stock need be reserved in respect of any
unexercised Warrant.

                                       16
<PAGE>

         12. REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF WARRANTS, ETC.

         12.1. WARRANT REGISTER; OWNERSHIP OF WARRANTS. Each Warrant issued by
the Company shall be numbered and shall be registered in a warrant register (the
"Warrant Register") as it is issued and transferred, which Warrant Register
shall be maintained by the Company at its principal office or, at the Company's
election and expense, by a Warrant Agent or the Transfer Agent. The Company
shall be entitled to treat the registered Holder of any Warrant on the 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 Warrant on the
part of any other Person, and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary, except that, if and when any Warrant is properly assigned in blank,
the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer thereof as the
owner of such Warrant for all purposes. Subject to Section 9, a Warrant, if
properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder without a new Warrant first
having been issued.

         12.2. TRANSFER OF WARRANTS. Subject to compliance with Section 9, if
applicable, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole or
in part, without charge to the Holder hereof, upon surrender of this Warrant
with a properly executed Form of Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B at the
principal office of the Company. Upon any partial transfer, the Company shall at
its expense issue and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the
name of the Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of Common Shares
with respect to which rights under this Warrant were not so transferred. Prior
to effecting any transfer of this Warrant or any part hereof, each prospective
transferee shall represent in writing to the Company that:

                  (i) such transferee is acquiring the Warrant hereunder for its
         own account, without a view to the distribution thereof;

                  (ii) such transferee is an "accredited investor" within the
         meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act and was not organized
         for the specific purpose of acquiring the Warrant or the Warrant
         Shares;

                  (iii) such transferee has sufficient knowledge and experience
         in investing in companies similar to the Company so as to be able to
         evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the transferee and
         is able financially to bear the risks thereof; and

                  (iv) if applicable, such transferee understands that (i) this
         Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the
         Securities Act in reliance upon an exemption from the registration
         requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof or
         Rule 506 promulgated under such act and under applicable state
         securities laws, (ii) this Warrant and the Warrant Shares must be held
         indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered
         under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws or
         is exempt from such registration, (iii) this Warrant and the Warrant
         Shares will bear a legend to such effect, and (iv) the Company will
         make a notation on its transfer books to such effect.

                                       17
<PAGE>

         12.3. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. On receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such
mutilation, on surrender of such Warrant to the Company at its principal office
and cancellation thereof, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver,
in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

         12.4. ADJUSTMENTS TO PURCHASE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES.
Notwithstanding any adjustment in the Purchase Price or in the number or kind of
Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, any Warrant theretofore
or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number and kind of Common
Shares as are stated in this Warrant, as initially issued.

         12.5. FRACTIONAL SHARES. Notwithstanding any adjustment pursuant to
Section 3 in the number of Common Shares covered by this Warrant or any other
provision of this Warrant, the Company shall not be required to issue fractions
of shares upon exercise of this Warrant or to distribute certificates which
evidence fractional shares. In lieu of fractional shares, the Company shall make
payment to the Holder, at the time of exercise of this Warrant as herein
provided, in an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the Current
Market Price of a Common Share on the date of Warrant exercise.

         13. REMEDIES; SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The Company stipulates that there
would be no adequate remedy at law to the Holder of this Warrant in the event of
any default or threatened default by the Company in the performance of or
compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant and accordingly, the Company
agrees that, in addition to any other remedy to which the Holder may be entitled
at law or in equity, the Holder shall be entitled to seek to compel specific
performance of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant, without the
posting of any bond, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Warrant
in any court of the United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction, and
if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of
this Warrant, the Company shall not raise the defense that there is an adequate
remedy at law. Except as otherwise provided by law, a delay or omission by the
Holder hereto in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon any such breach
shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence
in any such breach. No remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedy. All
available remedies shall be cumulative.

         14. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS SHAREHOLDER. Nothing contained in this
Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof any rights as a
shareholder of the Company or as imposing any obligation on the Holder to
purchase any securities or as imposing any liabilities on the Holder as a
shareholder of the Company, whether such obligation or liabilities are asserted
by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

         15. NOTICES. All notices and other communications (and deliveries)
provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery,

the Company agrees that if at any time or from time to time after July 17, 2001

                   23. LIMITATION ON NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Company shall
not be obligated to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant only to
the extent that the issuance of such Common Shares would cause the Company to
exceed that number of Common Shares which the Company may issue upon exercise of
this Warrant (the "Exchange Cap") without breaching the Company's obligations
under the rules or regulations of the Commission, the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc.
or any other national securities exchange or automated quotation system that
regulates the Company, except that such limitation shall not apply in the event
that the Company (a) obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the
Principal Market (or any successor rule or regulation) for issuances of Common
Shares in excess of such amount or (b) obtains a written opinion from outside
counsel to the Company that such approval is not required, which opinion shall
be reasonably satisfactory to the holder of this Warrant. Until such approval or
written opinion is obtained, the holder of this Warrant shall not be issued,
upon exercise of this Warrant, Warrant Shares in an amount greater than the
number that may be issued without such approval or written opinion. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the required stockholder
approval of such issuance at its next stockholders meeting after determining
that it is subject to the Exchange Cap. The Company shall continue to comply
with the shareholder approval requirements under the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc.
rules in connection with the issuance of Common Shares under this Warrant during
the term of this Warrant even if the Common Shares are no longer listed on the
NASDAQ automated quotation system.

                   24. REDEMPTION. In the event the Company is prohibited from
issuing additional Warrant Shares as required under the adjustment provisions
contained in Section 3 hereof, then, at any time prior to submitting the matter
to shareholders of the Company for their approval, upon the written request of
the Holder, the Company shall redeem for cash those Warrant Shares which can not
be issued, at a price equal to the excess, if any, of the Market Price of the
Common Shares above the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares as of the date of
the attempted exercise.

                   25. LIMITATION ON EXERCISE. Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to
exercise this Warrant, nor will the Company recognize such exercise, such that
upon giving effect to such exercise, the aggregate number of Common Shares then
beneficially owned by the Holder and its "affiliates" as defined in Rule 144 of
the Securities Act would exceed 4.99% of the total issued and outstanding shares
of the Common Shares following such exercise; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Holder may
elect to waive this restriction upon not less than sixty-one (61) days prior
written notice to the Company. For purposes of this Section, beneficial
ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act.
