            (d) In the event that Grantee exercises the Warrant in part only,

recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction or any
other extraordinary change in the corporate or capital structure of Grantee
(including, without limitation, the declaration or payment of an extraordinary
dividend of cash, securities or other property), the type and number of shares
or securities to be delivered by Grantee in payment of the Stock Payment Amount
shall be adjusted appropriately so that Issuer shall receive upon payment of the
Stock Payment Amount the number and class of shares or other securities or
property that Issuer would have received in respect of Grantee Common Stock if
Grantee had paid the Stock Payment Amount immediately prior to such change.

            SECTION 2.04. Adjustments upon Share Issuances, Changes in
Capitalization, Etc. (a) In the event that Issuer shall issue or sell, prior to
the exercise in full or expiration of the Warrant, any Shares (except as
provided in paragraph (f) below) or Convertible Securities (as hereinafter
defined) or any rights or options to purchase Shares or Convertible Securities
for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such issue or sale, then forthwith upon such issue or sale the Exercise
Price shall be reduced to a price (calculated to the nearest $.0001) determined
by dividing (i) an amount equal to the sum of (A) the number of Shares
outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the Exercise
Price then in effect, and (B) the consideration, if any, received by the Issuer
upon such issue or sale, by (ii) the total number of Shares outstanding

      right to convert or exchange any such Convertible Securities are
      immediately exercisable, and the price per Share for which Common Stock is
      issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options or upon conversion or
      exchange of such Convertible Securities

            (determined by dividing (A) the total amount, if any, received or
            receivable by Issuer as consideration for the granting of such
            rights or options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
            consideration payable to Issuer upon the exercise of such rights or
            options, plus, in the case of any such rights or options which
            relate to such Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount

      upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such
      Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights or
      options shall (as of the date of granting of such rights or options) be
      deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for such price per Share.
      Except as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.04, no further
      adjustments of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issue of
      such Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such
      rights or options or upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon
      conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

            (ii) In case at any time Issuer shall issue or sell any Convertible
      Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder
      are immediately exercisable, and the price per Share for which Common
      Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange

            (determined by dividing (A) the total amount received or receivable
            by Issuer as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible
            Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
            consideration, if any, payable to Issuer upon the

[**]=Confidential Treatment requested for redacted portion

                                       10

            conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of
            Shares issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such
            Convertible Securities)

      shall be less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the
      time of such issue or sale, then the total maximum number of Shares
      issuable upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities
      shall (as of the date of the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities)
      be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for such price per
      Share, provided that (i) except as provided in paragraph (e) of this
      Section 2.04, no further adjustments of the Exercise Price shall be made
      upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of
      such Convertible Securities, and (ii) if any such issue or sale of such
      Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any rights to subscribe
      for or to purchase or of any option to purchase any such Convertible
      Securities for which adjustments of the Exercise Price have been or are to
      be made pursuant to other provisions of this paragraph (b), no further
      adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue or
      sale.

            (iii) In case at any time Issuer shall declare a dividend or make
      any other distribution upon any stock of the Company payable in Common
      Stock or Convertible Securities, any Common Stock or Convertible
      Securities, as the case may be, issuable in payment of such dividend or
      distribution shall be deemed to have been issued or sold without
      consideration.

            (iv) In case at any time any Share or Convertible Securities or any
      rights or options to purchase any Common Stock or Convertible Securities
      shall be issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor
      shall be deemed to be the amount received by Issuer therefor, without
      deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any underwriting
      commissions or concessions or discounts paid or allowed by Issuer in
      connection therewith. In case any Shares or Convertible Securities or any
      rights or options to purchase any Common Stock or Convertible Securities
      shall be issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of
      the consideration other than cash received by Issuer shall be deemed to be
      the fair value of such consideration as determined by the Board of
      Directors, without deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any
      underwriting commissions or concessions or discounts paid or allowed by
      Issuer in connection therewith. In case any Shares or Convertible
      Securities or any rights or options to purchase any Common Stock or
      Convertible Securities shall be issued in connection with any merger of
      another corporation into Issuer, the amount of consideration therefor
      shall be deemed to be the fair value of the assets of such merged
      corporation as determined by the Board of Directors after deducting
      therefrom all cash and other consideration (if any) paid by Issuer in
      connection with such merger.

            (v) In case at any time Issuer shall take a record of the holders of
      Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend
      or other distribution payable in Common Stock or Convertible Securities,
      or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Convertible
      Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the
      issue or sale of the Shares 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.

            (c) In the event that Issuer shall make any distribution of its
assets upon or with respect to its Common Stock, as a liquidating or partial
liquidating dividend or otherwise, Grantee shall, upon any exercise of the
Warrant subsequent to the record date for such distribution or, in the absence
of a record date, subsequent to the date of such distribution, receive, in
addition to the Shares subscribed for, the amount of such assets (or, at the
option of Issuer, a sum equal to the value thereof at the time of distribution
as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion) which would have
been distributed to Grantee if it had exercised the Warrant for that number of
Shares immediately prior to the record date for such distribution or, in the
absence of a record date, immediately prior to the date of such distribution.

            (d) In case at any time Issuer shall subdivide its outstanding
Shares into a greater number of Shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and conversely, in
case the outstanding Shares of the Issuer shall be combined into a smaller
number of Shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination shall be proportionately increased.

            (e) (i) If the purchase price provided for in any right or option
referred to in subparagraph (i) of paragraph (b) above, or the rate at which any
Convertible Securities referred to in subparagraph (i) or (ii) of said paragraph
(b) are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, shall change or a
different purchase price or rate shall become effective at any time or from time
to time (other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against
dilution), then, upon such change becoming effective, the Exercise Price then in
effect hereunder shall forthwith be increased or decreased to such Exercise
Price as would have obtained had the adjustments made upon the granting or
issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities been made upon the
basis of (1) the issuance of the number of Shares theretofore actually delivered
upon the exercise of such options or rights or upon the conversion or exchange
of such Convertible Securities, and the total consideration received therefor,
and (2) the granting or issuance at the time of such change of any such options,
rights, or Convertible Securities then still outstanding for the consideration,
if any, received by the Company therefor and to be received on the basis of such
changed price.

            (ii) On the expiration of any right or option referred to in
subparagraph (i) of paragraph (b) above, or on the termination of any right to
convert or exchange any Convertible Securities referred to in subparagraph (i)
or (ii) of said paragraph (b), the Exercise Price shall

[**]=Confidential Treatment requested for redacted portion

                                       12
<PAGE>

forthwith be readjusted to such amount as would have obtained had the adjustment
made upon the granting or issuance of such rights or options or Convertible
Securities been made upon the basis of the issuance or sale of only the Shares
actually issued upon the exercise of such options or rights or upon the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

            (iii) If the purchase price provided for in any right or option
referred to in subparagraph (i) of paragraph (b) above, or the rate at which any
Convertible Securities referred to in subparagraph (i) or (ii) of said paragraph
(b) are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, shall change at any
time under or by reason of provisions with respect thereto designed to protect
against dilution, then in case of the delivery of Common Stock upon the exercise
of any such right or option or upon conversion or exchange of any such
Convertible Security, the Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall
forthwith be decreased to such Exercise Price as would have obtained had the
adjustments made upon the issuance of such right or option or Convertible
Security been made upon the basis of the issuance of (and the total
consideration received for) the Shares so delivered.

            (f) Issuer shall not be required to make any adjustment of the
Exercise Price in the case of:

            (i)   the granting by Issuer of Employee Options,

            (ii) the issuance of Shares pursuant to the exercise of Employee
      Options, whether granted prior to or subsequent to the date hereof, or

            (iii) the issuance of such additional Shares as may be issuable upon
      the exercise of such options as a result of adjustment in the number of
      Shares covered by such options for stock dividends, stock splits or other
      changes in the capitalization of Issuer.

            (g) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Capital
Stock of Issuer, or consolidation or merger of Issuer with another corporation,
or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation,
shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled
to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common
Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger or sale, Issuer or such successor or purchasing
corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with Grantee an agreement
providing that Grantee shall have the right thereafter and until the Expiration
Date to exercise the Warrant for the kind and amount of stock, securities or
assets receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger or sale by a holder of the number of Shares for which the Warrant might
have been exercised immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger or sale, subject to adjustments which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section
2.04.

            (h) (i) Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 2.04, the number of Warrant Shares for which the
Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the number
determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant was
exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment, and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price in effect
immediately thereafter.

            (ii) Issuer shall not be required to issue fractional Shares upon
any exercise of the Warrant following any adjustment in the number of Warrant
Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable pursuant to subparagraph (i) above.
If any fraction of a Share would, except for the provisions of this sentence, be
issuable on the exercise of the Warrant (or specified portion thereof), Issuer
shall pay an amount in cash calculated by it to be equal to the then current
market value per Share multiplied by such fraction, rounded to the nearest whole
cent.

            (i) The provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation,
Sections 2.01, 2.02, 2.04, 2.05 and 5.04, shall apply with appropriate
adjustments to any securities for which the Warrant becomes exercisable pursuant
to this Section 2.04.

            SECTION 2.05. Right to Purchase New Securities. (a) In the event
that Issuer proposes to issue New Securities (prior to, and other than in
connection with, an Initial Public Offering), Grantee shall have the right to
purchase in lieu of the Person to whom Issuer proposed to issue such New
Securities, in accordance with paragraph (b) below, a number of Shares or other
New Securities which Issuer proposes to issue equal to the product of (i) the
total number or amount of Shares or other New Securities which Issuer proposes
to issue at such time and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
total number of Shares which Grantee owns or is entitled to purchase on the
fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement or, if earlier, upon the
occurrence of an Exercise Event, pursuant to this Warrant, and the denominator
of which shall be the total number of Shares then outstanding plus the total
number of Shares which Grantee is entitled to purchase on the fifth anniversary
of the date of this Agreement or, if earlier upon the occurrence of an Exercise
Event, pursuant to this Warrant. The rights given by Issuer under this Section
2.05 shall terminate if unexercised within 30 days after receipt of the Notice
of Issuance referred to in paragraph (b) below.

            (b) In the event that Issuer proposes to undertake an issuance of
New Securities (prior to an Initial Public Offering), it shall give written
notice (a "Notice of Issuance") of its intention to Grantee, describing all
material terms of the New Securities, the price and all material terms upon
which Issuer proposes to issue such New Securities. The Grantee shall have 30
days from the date of the Notice of Issuance to agree to purchase all or any
portion of its pro rata share of such New Securities (as determined pursuant to
paragraph (a) above) for the same consideration, if such consideration shall
consist solely of cash, or for cash, cash equivalents or

[**]=Confidential Treatment requested for redacted portion

                                       14
<PAGE>

marketable securities having an equivalent value to the consideration payable by
the Person to whom Issuer proposes to issue such New Securities at the time of
payment, and otherwise upon the terms specified in the Notice of Issuance by
giving written notice to Issuer, and stating therein the quantity of New
Securities to be purchase by Grantee.

            SECTION 2.06. Further Assurances. Issuer and Grantee shall use
reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and to
do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under
applicable laws to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated
hereunder, including, without limitation, using reasonable efforts to obtain all
required licenses, permits, consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications
and orders of Governmental Entities. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the parties hereto shall, when required in order to effect the
transactions contemplated hereunder, make all necessary filings, and thereafter
make any other required or appropriate submissions, under the HSR Act and shall
supply as promptly as practicable to the appropriate Governmental Entity any
additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant

required in order to effect the transactions contemplated hereunder. In case at
any time after the date hereof, any further action is necessary or desirable to
carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the proper officers and directors of
each of the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to take all
such action.
