        Smartire
          Systems Inc., a
          corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Yukon
          Territory  (the “Company”), hereby
          certifies that, for Ten United States Dollars ($10.00) and other good and
          valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
          acknowledged, Staraim Enterprises Limited (“Staraim”), a corporation organized
          under the laws of Cyprus, the registered holder hereof or its permitted
          assigns,
          is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the
          Company
          upon surrender of this Warrant, at any time or times on or after the date
          hereof, but not after 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date (as
          defined herein) four million one hundred sixty two thousand five hundred
          sixty
          six   (4,162,500) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common
          Stock (as defined herein) of the Company (the “Warrant Shares”) at
          the exercise price per share provided in Section 1(b) below or as
          subsequently adjusted; provided, however, that in no event shall the holder
          be
          entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess
          of
          that number of Warrant Shares which, upon giving effect to such exercise,
          would
          cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned
          by the
          holder and its affiliates to exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of
          the
          Common Stock following such exercise, except within sixty (60) days of
          the
          Expiration Date.  For purposes of the foregoing proviso, the aggregate
          number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder and its
          affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
          upon
          exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such
          proviso
          is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be
          issuable
          upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised Warrants beneficially owned
          by the holder and its affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the
          unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
          beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates (including, without
          limitation, any convertible notes or preferred stock) subject to a limitation
          on
          conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained
          herein.  Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes
          of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance
          with
          Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  For
          purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares
          of
          Common Stock a holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common
          Stock as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent Form 10-QSB or Form 10-KSB,
          as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company
          or (3)
          any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the
          number
          of shares of Common Stock outstanding.  Upon the written request of
          any holder, the Company shall promptly, but in no event later than one
          (1)
          Business Day following the receipt of such notice, confirm in writing to
          any
          such holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  In
          any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined
          after giving effect to the exercise of Warrants (as defined below) by such
          holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding
          shares of Common Stock was reported.

          of
          the Company, pro rata as hereinafter provided, at any time on any Business
          Day
          on or after the opening of business on such Business Day, commencing with
          the
          first day after the date hereof, and prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on
          the Expiration Date, by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form of
          the subscription notice attached as Exhibit A hereto
          (the
“Exercise
          Notice”), of such holder’s election to exercise this Warrant, which
          notice shall specify the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased,
          (ii) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Warrant Exercise
          Price(s) applicable to the Warrant Shares being purchased, multiplied by
          the
          number of Warrant Shares (at the applicable Warrant Exercise Price) as to
          which this Warrant is being exercised (plus any applicable issue or
          transfer taxes) (the “Aggregate Exercise
          Price”) in cash or wire transfer of immediately available funds and (iii)
          the surrender of this Warrant (or an indemnification undertaking with respect
          to
          this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) to a common
          carrier
          for overnight delivery to the Company as soon as practicable following
          such
          date.  In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this
          Warrant in compliance with this Section 2(a), the Company shall on the
          fifth (5th) Business Day following the date of receipt of the Exercise
          Notice, the Aggregate Exercise Price and this Warrant (or an indemnification
          undertaking with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft
          or
          destruction) and the receipt of the representations of the holder specified
          in
          Section 6 hereof, if requested by the Company (the “Exercise Delivery
          Documents”), and if the Common Stock is DTC eligible credit such
          aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder shall be
          entitled
          to the holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust
          Company; provided, however, if the holder who submitted the Exercise Notice
          requested physical delivery of any or all of the Warrant Shares, or, if
          the
          Common Stock is not DTC eligible  then the Company shall, on or before
          the fifth (5th)
          Business Day
          following receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents, issue and surrender
          to a
          common carrier for overnight delivery to the address specified in the Exercise
          Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the holder, for the number
          of
          shares of Common Stock to which the holder shall be entitled pursuant to
          such
          request.  Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and Aggregate Exercise
          Price referred to in clause (ii) above the holder of this Warrant shall be
          deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of
          the
          Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been
          exercised.  In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the
          Warrant Exercise Price, the Closing Bid Price or the arithmetic calculation
          of
          the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the holder the
          number of
          Warrant Shares that is not disputed and shall submit the disputed determinations
          or arithmetic calculations to the holder via facsimile within one (1) Business
          Day of receipt of the holder’s Exercise Notice.  If the holder and the
          Company are unable to agree upon the determination of the Warrant Exercise
          Price
          or arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares within one (1) day of such
          disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the
          holder,
          then the Company shall immediately submit via facsimile (i) the disputed
          determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Closing Bid Price to
          an
          independent, reputable investment banking firm or (ii) the disputed arithmetic
          calculation of the Warrant Shares to its independent, outside
          accountant.  The Company shall cause the investment banking firm or
          the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or
          calculations and notify the Company and the holder of the results no later
          than
          forty-eight (48) hours from the time it receives the disputed determinations
          or
          calculations.  Such investment banking firm’s or accountant’s
          determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be deemed conclusive
          absent manifest error.

         

        (a)  Unless
          the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have
          been
          fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event
          later
          than five (5) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense,
          issue a
          new Warrant identical in all respects to this Warrant exercised except
          it shall
          represent rights to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
          immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant exercised, less the
          number
          of Warrant Shares with respect to which such Warrant is exercised.

         

        (b)  No
          fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon any pro rata exercise of
          this
          Warrant, but rather the number of Warrant Shares issued upon such exercise
          of
          this Warrant shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole
          number.

         

        (c)  If
          the
          Company or its Transfer Agent shall fail for any reason or for no reason
          to
          issue to the holder within ten (10) days of receipt of the Exercise
          Delivery Documents, a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which
          the
          holder is entitled or to credit the holder’s balance account with The Depository
          Trust Company for such number of Warrant Shares to which the holder is
          entitled
          upon the holder’s exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall, in addition to
          any other remedies under this Warrant or the Placement Agent Agreement
          or
          otherwise available to such holder, pay as additional damages in cash to
          such
          holder on each day the issuance of such certificate for Warrant Shares
          is not
          timely effected an amount equal to 0.025% of the product of (A) the sum
          of the
          number of Warrant Shares not issued to the holder on a timely basis and
          to which
          the holder is entitled, and (B) the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock
          for
          the trading day immediately preceding the last possible date which the
          Company
          could have issued such Common Stock to the holder without violating this
          Section 2.

         

        (d)  If
          within
          ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents,
          the Company fails to deliver a new Warrant to the holder for the number
          of
          Warrant Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2 hereof,
          then, in addition to any other available remedies under this Warrant or
          the
          Placement Agent Agreement, or otherwise available to such holder, the Company
          shall pay as additional damages in cash to such holder on each day after
          such
          tenth (10th)
          day that such
          delivery of such new Warrant is not timely effected in an amount equal
          to 0.25%
          of the product of (A) the number of Warrant Shares represented by the
          portion of this Warrant which is not being exercised and (B) the Closing
          Bid Price of the Common Stock for the trading day immediately preceding
          the last
          possible date which the Company could have issued such Warrant to the holder
          without violating this Section 2.

         

        
          
            
            

          

          
            
            

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        

         

        Section
          3.  Covenants
          as to Common
          Stock.  The Company hereby covenants and agrees as
          follows:

         

        (a)  This
          Warrant is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or replacement
          of this
          Warrant will upon issuance be, duly authorized and validly issued.

         

        (b)  All
          Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented
          by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and
          nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to
          the
          issue thereof.

         

        (c)  During
          the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised,
          the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved at least one
          hundred
          percent (100%) of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide
          for the
          exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par value
          of
          said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Warrant
          Exercise Price.  If at any time the Company does not have a sufficient
          number of shares of Common Stock authorized and available, then the Company
          shall call and hold a special meeting of its stockholders within thirty
          (30)
          days of that time for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized
          shares of Common Stock.

         

        (d)  If
          at any
          time after the date hereof the Company shall file a registration statement,
          the
          Company shall include the Warrant Shares issuable to the holder, pursuant
          to the
          terms of this Warrant and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of
          Common
          Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all Warrant Shares from time
          to time
          issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall so list
          on
          each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, as the
          case may
          be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital stock
          of the
          Company issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any
          shares
          of the same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange
          or
          automated quotation system.

         

        (e)  The
          Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or through
          any
          reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, 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 to be observed or performed
          by it
          hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
          of all
          the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as
          may
          reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect
          the
          exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other
          impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this
          Warrant.  The Company will not increase the par value of any shares of
          Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Warrant
          Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may
          be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally
          issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise
          of
          this Warrant.

         

        (f)  This
          Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger,
          consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company’s
          assets.

          4.  Taxes.  The
          Company shall pay any and all taxes, except any applicable withholding,
          which
          may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares
          upon
          exercise of this Warrant.

         

        Section
          5.  Warrant
          Holder Not Deemed a
          Stockholder.  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein,
          no holder, as such, of this Warrant shall be entitled to vote or receive
          dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of capital stock of the Company
          for
          any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed
          to confer
          upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of
          the
          Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate
          action
          (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock,
          consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings,
          receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance
          to
          the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he or she is then
          entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant.  In
          addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing
          any
          liabilities on such holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of
          this
          Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such
          liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
          Company.  Notwithstanding this Section 5, the Company will provide the
          holder of this Warrant with copies of the same notices and other information
          given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with
          the
          giving thereof to the stockholders.

         

        
          
            
            

          

          
            
            

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        

         

        Section
          6.  Representations
          of
          Holder.  The holder of this Warrant, by the acceptance hereof,
          represents that it is acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares for
          its own
          account for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale
          in
          connection with, the public sale or distribution of this Warrant or the
          Warrant
          Shares, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities
          Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the
          holder
          does not agree to hold this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares for any
          minimum
          or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of this Warrant
          and the
          Warrant Shares at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration
          statement or an exemption under the Securities Act.  The holder of
          this Warrant further represents, by acceptance hereof, that, as of this
          date,
          such holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in
          Rule 501(a)(1) of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
          Commission under the Securities Act (an “Accredited
          Investor”).  Upon exercise of this Warrant  the
          holder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form
          satisfactory to the Company, that the Warrant Shares 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
          and
          that such holder is an Accredited Investor.  If such holder cannot
          make such representations because they would be factually incorrect, it
          shall be
          a condition to such holder’s exercise of this Warrant that the Company receive
          such other representations as the Company considers reasonably necessary
          to
          assure the Company that the issuance of its securities upon exercise of
          this
          Warrant shall not violate any United States or state securities
          laws.

         

        Section
          7.  Ownership
          and
          Transfer.

         

        (a)  The
          Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other
          office
          or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof),
          a
          register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record the name and
          address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well
          as the
          name and address of each transferee.  The Company may treat the person
          in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the owner and
          holder
          thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, but
          in all
          events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with the terms of this
          Warrant.

         

        Section
          8.  Adjustment
          of Warrant
          Exercise Price and Number of Shares.  The Warrant Exercise
          Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
          this
          Warrant shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

         

        (a)  Adjustment
          of Warrant
          Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance of Common
          Stock.  If and whenever  after the Issuance Date of
          this Warrant, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued
          or sold,
          any shares of Common Stock (other than (i) Excluded Securities and (ii)
          shares of Common Stock which are issued or deemed to have been issued by
          the
          Company in connection with an Approved Stock Plan or upon exercise or conversion
          of the Other Securities) for a consideration per share less than a price
          (the
“Applicable
          Price”) equal to the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
          to such issuance or sale, then immediately after such issue or sale the
          Warrant
          Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to such
          consideration per share.  Upon each such adjustment of the Warrant
          Exercise Price hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
          of
          this Warrant shall be adjusted to the number of shares determined by multiplying
          the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment
          by the
          number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately
          prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Warrant
          Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

         

        (b)  Effect
          on Warrant Exercise
          Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of determining the
          adjusted Warrant Exercise Price under Section 8(a) above, the following
          shall be
          applicable:

         

        (i)  Issuance
          of
          Options.  Subject to Section (a) above, if after the date
          hereof, the Company in any manner grants any Options and the lowest price
          per
          share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise
          of any
          such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any convertible securities
          issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price,
          then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to
          have
          been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale
          of such
          Option for such price per share.  For purposes of this Section
          8(b)(i), the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock
          is
          issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of
          such
          Convertible Securities shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts
          of
          consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect
          to any
          one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon
          exercise
          of the Option or upon conversion or exchange of any convertible security
          issuable upon exercise of such Option.  No further adjustment of the
          Warrant Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common
          Stock or of such convertible securities upon the exercise of such Options
          or
          upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange
          of
          such convertible securities.

         

        (ii)  Issuance
          of Convertible
          Securities.  Subject to Section (a) above, if the Company in
          any manner issues or sells any convertible securities and the lowest price
          per
          share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion
          or
          exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of
          Common
          Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold
          by the
          Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such convertible securities
          for
          such price per share.  For the purposes of this Section 8(b)(ii),
          the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable
          upon
          such conversion or exchange shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts
          of
          consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect
          to one
          share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the convertible security
          and
          upon conversion or exchange of such convertible security.  No further
          adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual
          issuance
          of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such convertible securities,
          and if any such issue or sale of such convertible securities is made upon
          exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price
          had
          been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 8(b),
          no
          further adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price shall be made by reason
          of such
          issue or sale.

         

        
          
            
            

          

          
            
            

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        

         

        (iii)  Change
          in Option Price or
          Rate of Conversion.  If the purchase price provided for in any
          Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue,
          conversion or exchange of any convertible securities, or the rate at which
          any
          convertible securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common
          Stock
          changes at any time, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect at the time of
          such
          change shall be adjusted to the Warrant Exercise Price which would have
          been in
          effect at such time had such Options or convertible securities provided
          for such
          changed purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion
          rate, as
          the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold and the
          number of
          Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be correspondingly
          readjusted.  For purposes of this Section 8(b)(iii), if the terms of
          any Option or convertible security that was outstanding as of the Issuance
          Date
          of this Warrant are changed in the manner described in the immediately
          preceding
          sentence, then such Option or convertible security and the Common Stock
          deemed
          issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed
          to have
          been issued as of the date of such change.  No adjustment pursuant to
          this Section 8(b) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an
          increase of the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect.

         

        (c)  Effect
          on Warrant Exercise
          Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of determining the
          adjusted Warrant Exercise Price under Sections 8(a) and 8(b), the following
          shall be applicable:

         

        (i)  Calculation
          of Consideration
          Received.  If any Common Stock, Options or convertible
          securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for
          cash,
          the consideration received therefore will be deemed to be the net amount
          received by the Company therefore.  If any Common Stock, Options or
          convertible securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than
          cash,
          the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair
          value
          of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of marketable
          securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company
          will be the market price of such securities on the date of receipt of such
          securities.  If any Common Stock, Options or convertible securities
          are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with
          any
          merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration
          therefore will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net
          assets
          and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Common
          Stock, Options or convertible securities, as the case may be.  The
          fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined
          jointly by the Company and the holders of Warrants representing at least
          two-thirds (b) of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
          then
          outstanding.  If such parties are unable to reach agreement within
          ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the
“Valuation
          Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within
          five (5) Business Days after the tenth (10th)
          day following
          the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected
          by
          the Company and the holders of Warrants representing at least two-thirds
          (b) of
          the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants then
          outstanding.  The determination of such appraiser shall be final and
          binding upon all parties and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall
          be
          borne jointly by the Company and the holders of Warrants.

         

        (ii)  Integrated
          Transactions.  In case any Option is issued in connection with
          the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising
          one
          integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated
          to such
          Options by the parties thereto, the Options will be deemed to have been
          issued
          for a consideration of $.01.

         

        (iii)  Treasury
          Shares.  The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at
          any given time does not include shares owned or held by or for the account
          of
          the Company, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held will be
          considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

         

        (iv)  Record
          Date.  If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common
          Stock for the purpose of entitling them (1) to receive a dividend or other
          distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or in convertible securities
          or
          (2) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or convertible
          securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the
          issue or
          sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon
          the
          declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or
          the
          date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the
          case may
          be.

         

        (d)  Adjustment
          of Warrant
          Exercise Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common
          Stock.  If the Company at any time after the date of issuance
          of this Warrant subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization
          or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock
          into
          a greater number of shares, any Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately
          prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number
          of
          shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant will be
          proportionately increased.  If the Company at any time after the date
          of issuance of this Warrant combines (by combination, reverse stock split
          or
          otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock
          into a
          smaller number of shares, any Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately
          prior
          to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of
          Warrant
          Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately
          decreased.  Any adjustment under this Section 8(d) shall become
          effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination
          becomes effective.

         

        (e)  Distribution
          of
          Assets.  If the Company shall declare or make any dividend or
          other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders
          of
          Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without
          limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property
          or
          options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate
          rearrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at
          any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such
          case:

         

        (i)  any
          Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business
          on
          the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock
          entitled to receive
          the
          Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on
          such
          record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise
          Price by
          a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Sale Price of
          the
          Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date
          minus the
          value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of
          Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (B) the denominator
          shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the trading day
          immediately preceding such record date; and

         

        (ii)  either
          (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant
          shall
          be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of shares of Common
          Stock
          obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date
          fixed
          for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the
          Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in
          the
          immediately preceding clause (i), or (B) in the event that the Distribution
          is
          of common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national
          securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the
          holder of
          this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock,
          the
          terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that
          such
          warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have
          been
          payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had
          the
          holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and
          with an
          exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this
          Warrant
          was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of
          the
          immediately preceding clause (i).

         

        
          
            
            

          

          
            
            

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        

         

        (f)  Certain
          Events.  If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
          provisions of this Section 8 but not expressly provided for by such
          provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation
          rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then
          the
          Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Warrant
          Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon
          exercise
          of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the holders of the Warrants;
          provided, except as set forth in section 8(d),that no such adjustment pursuant
          to this Section 8(f) will increase the Warrant Exercise Price or decrease
          the

        Section
          9.  Purchase
          Rights;
          Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or
          Sale.

          addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 8 above, if at any time
          the
          Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or
          rights to
          purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the
          record
          holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”),
          then the holder of this Warrant will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms
          applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which
          such
          holder could have acquired if such holder had held the number of shares
          of
          Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately
          before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale
          of
          such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which
          the
          record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue
          or sale
          of such Purchase Rights.

         

        (b)  Any
          recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
          sale
          of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person or other
          transaction in each case which is effected in such a way that holders of
          Common
          Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation)
          stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock
          is
          referred to herein as an “Organic
          Change.”  Prior to the consummation of any (i) sale of all or
          substantially all of the Company’s assets to an acquiring Person or (ii) other
          Organic Change following which the Company is not a surviving entity, the
          Company will secure from the Person purchasing such assets or the successor
          resulting from such Organic Change (in each case, the “Acquiring Entity”) a
          written agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the holders of
          Warrants
          representing at least two-thirds (iii) of the Warrant Shares issuable upon
          exercise of the Warrants then outstanding) to deliver to each holder of
          Warrants
          in exchange for such Warrants, a security of the Acquiring Entity evidenced
          by a
          written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this
          Warrant
          and satisfactory to the holders of the Warrants (including an adjusted
          warrant
          exercise price equal to the value for the Common Stock reflected by the
          terms of
          such consolidation, merger or sale, and exercisable for a corresponding
          number
          of shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the
          Warrants without regard to any limitations on exercise, if the value so
          reflected is less than any Applicable Warrant Exercise Price immediately
          prior
          to such consolidation, merger or sale).  Prior to the consummation of
          any other Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision
          (in form
          and substance satisfactory to the holders of Warrants representing a
          majority of the
          Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants then outstanding)
          to
          insure that each of the holders of the Warrants will thereafter have the
          right
          to acquire and receive in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be)
          the
          Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable and receivable upon the
          exercise
          of such holder’s Warrants (without regard to any limitations on exercise),
          such shares of stock, securities or assets that would have been issued
          or
          payable in such Organic Change with respect to or in exchange for the number
          of
          Warrant Shares which would have been issuable and receivable upon the exercise
          of such holder’s Warrant as of the date of such Organic Change (without taking
          into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this
          Warrant).

          or destroyed, the Company shall promptly, on receipt of an indemnification
          undertaking (or, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, the Warrant), issue

          Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen,

        Section
          13.  Amendment
          and
          Waiver.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of
          the Warrants may be amended and the Company may take any action herein
          prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed

          Warrants
          representing at least two-thirds of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
          of
          the Warrants then outstanding; provided that, except for Section 8(d),

        Section
          14.  Descriptive
          Headings;
          Governing Law.  The descriptive headings of the several
          sections and paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only
          and do
          not constitute a part of this Warrant.  The corporate laws of the
          State of New Jersey shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights
          of
          the Company and its stockholders.  All other questions concerning the
          construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement
          shall
          be governed by the internal laws of the State of New Jersey, without giving
          effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether
          of the
          State of New Jersey or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application
          of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New
          Jersey.  Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
          jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Hudson County and
          the
          United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, for the
          adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or therewith,
          or
          with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby
          irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding,
          any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any
          such
          court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient
          forum
          or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is
          improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of
          process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or
          proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such
          notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute
          good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing
          contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve
          process
          in any manner permitted by law.

         

        Section
          15.  Waiver
          of Jury
          Trial.  AS A
          MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH PARTY HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS WARRANT, THE
          PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING
          RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THIS WARRANT AND/OR ANY AND ALL OF THE OTHER DOCUMENTS
          ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TRANSACTION.

         

        IN
          WITNESS WHEREOF, the
          Company has caused this Warrant to be signed as of the date first set forth
          above.
