Holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which
this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within ten (10)

by tendering this Warrant to the Company to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal in
Market Value to the difference between the Market Value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such exercise of this Warrant and the total cash exercise price of that part of the Warrant being
exercised. “Market Value” for this purpose shall be the closing price of the Common Stock
as reported by Nasdaq or, if not available, by Bloomberg L.P. on the date of such cashless
exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Holder hereof
within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as
aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other person so designated
to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a the Holder of record of such shares for all
purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise
Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, prior to the issuance of such
shares, have been paid. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at
the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares, deliver to
the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares of
Common Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical
to this Warrant.

     2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The Exercise Price in
effect and the number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as provided in this
Section 2.

          2.1. Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case at any time or from time to
time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other
person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person
under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such
case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall
be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in
Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or
the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common
Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective
date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have
been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if
such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further
adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 2.

          2.2 Dividends, Splits, Reclassifications Etc. In the event of changes in the
outstanding Common Stock of the Company by reason of share dividends, splits, recapitalizations,
reclassifications, combinations or exchanges of shares, reorganizations, liquidations, or the like,
the number and class of the Warrant Shares available under the Warrant in the aggregate and the
Exercise Price shall be correspondingly adjusted to give the Holder of the Warrant, on exercise for
the same aggregate Exercise Price, the total number, class, and kind of shares as the Holder would
have owned had the Warrant been exercised prior to the event and had the Holder continued to hold
such shares

4

 

until after the event requiring adjustment. The form of this Warrant need not be changed
because of any adjustment in the number of the Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant.

          2.3. Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the
transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such
dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities
and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants after the
effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 2 to a bank or trust company (a
“Trustee”) having its principal office in New York City, New York, as trustee for the
Holder of the Warrants.

          2.4. Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or
transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 2, this Warrant
shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other
Securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such
reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such
transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities,
including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the
terms of this Warrant as provided herein. In the event this Warrant does not continue in full
force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 2, then only
in such event will the Company’s securities and property (including cash, where applicable)
receivable by the Holder of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by Section
2.3.

     3. Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in
the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the
Company will cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate
setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or
receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or
sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Exercise Price and the number of
shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The
Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any
Warrant Agent of the Company that may be appointed pursuant to Section 8 hereof.

     4. Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant. The Company will at
all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the
Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the
exercise of the Warrant.

     5. Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to compliance with all applicable
securities laws, this Warrant, and all rights hereunder are transferable or assignable only with
prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;
provided, however, that any proposed transferee shall execute and deliver to the
Company a voting agreement between such proposed transferee and the Company substantially in the
form of the Voting Agreement. In the event the Company consents to such assignment, on the
surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with endorsement of the registered holder of this Warrant
proposing to effect the assignment (a “Transferor”) in the form of Exhibit B
attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with an opinion of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with
all applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense, once only, but with payment by the

applicable transfer taxes, will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof
a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s)
specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each, a “Transferee”), calling in the
aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the
face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor. No such transfers shall result in a
public distribution of the Warrant.

     6. Replacement of Warrant. On receipt 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 or security
reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation,
on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense, once only, will execute
and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

     7. No Shareholder Rights. This Warrant shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any
voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company.

     8. Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant,
appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other
Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant
to Section 6, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 6, or any of the foregoing, and
thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such
office by such Warrant Agent.

     9. Transfer on the Company’s Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of
the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for
all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

     10. Representations and Covenants of Holder. The Holder represents and warrants that
it is acquiring the Warrant and the Warrant Shares solely for its account for investment and not
with a view to or for sale or distribution of said Warrant or Warrant Shares or any part thereof.
The Holder also represents that the entire legal and beneficial interests of the Warrant and
Warrant Shares the Holder is acquiring are being acquired for, and will be held for, the Holder’s
account only. The Holder further represents and warrants as follows:

     (a) Securities Are Not Registered.

          (i) The Holder acknowledges and understands that the Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not
been registered under the Securities Act, on the basis that no distribution or public offering of
the shares of the Company is to be effected. The Holder realizes that the basis for the exemption
may not be present if, notwithstanding its representations, the Holder has a present intention of
acquiring the securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, selling (in connection
with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the
securities. The Holder has no such present intention.

          (ii) The Holder of this Warrant recognizes that the Warrant and the Warrant Shares must be
held indefinitely, and that no sale, transfer, assignment, hypothecation or other disposition of
this Warrant or the Warrant Shares shall be made in the absence of (A) an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act as to this Warrant or the Warrant Shares and the registration or
qualification of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares under any applicable state securities laws is
then in effect or (B) an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such
registration or qualification is not required in reliance on an exemption therefrom.

6

 

          (iii) The Holder is aware that neither the Warrant nor the Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant
to Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act unless certain conditions are met, including, among
other things, the existence of a public market for the shares, the availability of certain current
public information about the Company, the resale following the required holding period under Rule
144 and the number of shares being sold during any three month period not exceeding specified
limitations. So long as the Holder owns any Warrant Shares, the Company agrees to furnish such
Holder forthwith upon request: a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with Rule
144, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company filed with the Commission,
and such other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any
rule or regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

     (b) Legended Shares. The Holder understands and agrees that all certificates
or other instruments evidencing the Common Stock to be issued in connection with the exercise of
this Warrant will bear legends as provided herein, one of which shall be substantially in the form
set forth below:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
“SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES
HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND NOT WITH A VIEW
TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION HEREOF. THESE
SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED EXCEPT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND ALL OTHER APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS.”

     (c) Accredited Investor Status. The Holder is an “accredited
investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

     11. Registration Rights. The Company shall afford the Holder certain registration
rights with respect to the Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the
conditions of that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated as of even date herewith, between
the Company and Athlete’s Foot Marketing Associates, LLC.

     12. Voting Agreement. It shall be a condition precedent to the Holder’s receipt of
this Warrant that the Holder execute and deliver to the Company the Voting Agreement with respect
to the voting of the Warrant Shares, in the form and substance satisfactory to the Company and
attached hereto as Exhibit C. The Holder understands and hereby agrees that all
certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with the exercise of
this Warrant, in addition to the legend set forth above, will bear legend(s) substantially in the
form set forth in the Voting Agreement.

     13. Securityholder Questionnaire. It shall be a condition precedent to the Holder’s
receipt of this Warrant that the Holder execute and deliver to the Company the Securityholder
