         the greater of (x) 50% of such Management Stockholder's Initial
         Ownership and (y) the percentage of such Management Stockholder's
         Initial Ownership that is equal to the Aggregate Ownership of the
         DLJ Entities as a percentage of the DLJ Entities' Initial Ownership; or

             (iv)   following the Restriction Termination Date, to any Third
         Party other than an Adverse Person for consideration consisting
         solely of cash; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the number of Common Shares
         transferred by such Management Stockholder pursuant to this Section
         3.04(a)(iv) in any twelve month period shall not exceed 20% of such
         Management Stockholder's Aggregate Ownership at the beginning of
         such twelve month period.

         For purposes of this Agreement, "PUBLIC OFFERING LIMITATIONS" means
(A) no Management Stockholder shall be permitted to exercise its rights under
Section 5.02 hereof (x) with respect to the Initial Public Offering and (y)
until such time as the Aggregate Ownership of the DLJ Entities shall be less
than 50% of their aggregate Initial Ownership and (B) in each Public Offering
following the Initial Public Offering, such Management Stockholder shall be
entitled to transfer a number of Shares not exceeding such Management
Stockholder's Pro Rata Portion of such Management Stockholder's Shares.

         (b) The provisions of Section 3.04(a) shall terminate upon the
earliest to occur of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) a
Change of Control.  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the provisions of
Section 3.04(a) shall

                                       15

<PAGE>

not terminate with respect to any Management Stockholder's Shares which shall
have been pledged to the Company as security in connection with any
indebtedness for borrowed money owed by such Management Stockholder to the
Company unless the proceeds from the sale of such Shares are applied to repay
such indebtedness in full.

         Section 3.05.  RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS BY THE INVESTORS AND THE DLJIP
ENTITIES. (a) Except as provided in Section 3.03, each of the Investors and its
Permitted Transferees may transfer its Company Securities only as follows:

              (i)   in a transfer made in compliance with Section 4.01 or
         4.02; or

              (ii)   in a Public Offering in connection with the exercise of
         its rights under Article 5 hereof.

         (b) Each DLJIP Entity and its Permitted Transferees may transfer its
Company Securities freely, subject only to compliance with Section 4.02.

         (c) The provisions of Sections 3.05(a) and (b) shall terminate upon the
earlier to occur of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) a
Change of Control.

                        TAG-ALONG RIGHTS; DRAG-ALONG RIGHTS

         Section 4.01.  RIGHTS TO PARTICIPATE IN TRANSFER.  (a) If the DLJ
Entities (the "SELLING PERSON") propose to transfer (other than transfers of
Common Shares (i) in a Public Offering or (ii) to any Permitted Transferee of
any of the DLJ Entities) a number of Company Securities equal to or exceeding
20% of the Aggregate Ownership of the DLJ Entities in a single transaction or
in a series of related transactions on the date of the proposed sale (a
"TAG-ALONG SALE"), the Other Stockholders may, at their option, elect to
exercise their rights under this Section 4.01 (each such Stockholder, a
"TAGGING PERSON").  In the event of such a proposed transfer, the Selling
Person shall provide each Other Stockholder written notice of the terms and
conditions of such proposed transfer ("TAG-ALONG NOTICE") and offer each
Tagging Person the opportunity to participate in such sale.  The Tag-Along
Notice shall identify the number and type of Company Securities subject to
the offer ("TAG-ALONG OFFER"), the cash price at which the transfer is
proposed to be made, and all other material terms and conditions of the
Tag-Along Offer.  Each Tagging Person shall have the right (a "TAG-ALONG

                                       16

<PAGE>

RIGHT"), exercisable by written notice ("SECTION 4.01 RESPONSE NOTICE") given
to the Selling Person within 10 Business Days of the date of receipt of the
Tag-Along Notice by such Tagging Person (the "TAG-ALONG NOTICE PERIOD"), to
request that the Selling Person include in the proposed transfer the number
and type of Company Securities held by such Tagging Person as is specified in
such notice; PROVIDED that if the aggregate number of Company Securities
proposed to be sold by the Selling Person and all Tagging Persons in such
transaction exceeds the number of Company Securities which can be sold on the
terms and conditions set forth in the Tag-Along Notice, then only the
Tag-Along Portion of the Company Securities of each Tagging Person shall be
sold pursuant to the Tag-Along Offer and the Selling Person shall sell its
Tag-Along Portion of the Company Securities and such additional Company
Securities as permitted by Section 4.01(d).  Each Tagging Person shall
deliver to the Selling Person, together with its Section 4.01 Response
Notice, the certificate or certificates representing the Company Securities
of such Tagging Person to be included in the transfer, together with a
limited power-of-attorney authorizing the Selling Person to transfer such
Company Securities on the terms set forth in the Tag-Along Notice.  Delivery
of such certificate or certificates representing the Company Securities to be
transferred and the limited power-of-attorney authorizing the Selling Person
to transfer such Company Securities shall constitute an irrevocable
acceptance of the Tag-Along Offer by such Tagging Persons.  If, at the end of
a 120 day period after such delivery, the Selling Person has not completed
the transfer of all of such Company Securities on substantially the same
terms and conditions set forth in the Tag-Along Notice, the Selling Person
shall return to each Tagging Person the limited power-of-attorney (and all
copies thereof) together with certificates representing the unsold Company
Securities which such Tagging Person delivered for transfer pursuant to this
Section 4.01.

         (b) Concurrently with the consummation of the Tag-Along Sale, the
Selling Person shall notify the Tagging Persons thereof, shall remit to the
Tagging Persons the total consideration (by bank or certified check) for the
Company Securities of the Tagging Persons transferred pursuant thereto, and
shall, promptly after the consummation of such Tag-Along Sale, furnish such
other evidence of the completion and time of completion of such transfer and
the terms thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Tagging Persons.

         (c) If at the termination of the Tag-Along Notice Period any Tagging
Person shall not have elected to participate in the Tag-Along Sale, such
Tagging Person will be deemed to have waived its rights under Section 4.01(a)
with respect to the transfer of its Company Securities pursuant to such
Tag-Along Sale.

         (d) If any Tagging Person declines to exercise its Tag-Along Rights
or elects to exercise its Tag-Along Rights with respect to less than such
Tagging Person's Tag-Along Portion, the DLJ Entities shall be entitled to
transfer,

                                       17

<PAGE>

pursuant to the Tag-Along Offer, a number and type of Company Securities held
by the DLJ Entities equal to the number and type of Company Securities
constituting the portion of such Tagging Person's Tag-Along Portion with
respect to which Tag-Along Rights were not exercised.

         (e) The DLJ Entities and any Tagging Person who exercises the
Tag-Along Rights pursuant to this Section 4.01 may sell the Company
Securities subject to the Tag-Along Offer on the terms and conditions set
forth in the Tag-Along Notice (PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the cash price payable
in any such sale may exceed the cash price specified in the Tag-Along Notice
by up to 10%) within 120 days of the date on which Tag-Along Rights shall
have been waived, exercised or expire.

         Section 4.02.  RIGHT TO COMPEL PARTICIPATION IN CERTAIN TRANSFERS.
(a)  If (i) the DLJ Entities propose to transfer not less than 50% of their
Initial Ownership of any class of Company Securities to a Third Party in a
bona fide sale or (ii) the DLJ Entities propose a transfer in which the
Company Securities to be transferred by the DLJ Entities and their Permitted
Transferees constitute more than 50% of such class of outstanding Company
Securities (a "SECTION 4.02 SALE"), the DLJ Entities may at their option
require all Other Stockholders to sell the Drag-Along Portion of their
Company Securities ("DRAG-ALONG RIGHTS"). DLJMB shall provide written notice
of such Section 4.02 Sale to the Other Stockholders (a "SECTION 4.02 NOTICE")
not later than 15 days prior to the proposed Section 4.02 Sale.  The Section
4.02 Notice shall identify the proposed transferee for the Section 4.02 Sale,
the number and type of Company Securities proposed to be transferred pursuant
to the Section 4.02 Sale, the proposed consideration for the Company
Securities (the "SECTION 4.02 SALE PRICE") and all other material terms and
conditions of the proposed Section 4.02 Sale.  The number of Company
Securities to be sold by each Other Stockholder will be the Drag-Along
Portion of the Company Securities that such Other Stockholder owns. Subject
to Sections 4.02 and 4.03, each Other Stockholder shall be required to
participate in the Section 4.02 Sale on the terms and conditions set forth in
the Section 4.02 Notice and to tender the Drag-Along Portion of its Company
Securities as set forth below.  The price payable in such transfer shall be
the Section 4.02 Sale Price.  Not later than the 10th day following the date
of the Section 4.02 Notice (the "SECTION 4.02 NOTICE PERIOD"), each of the
Other Stockholders shall deliver to a representative of DLJMB designated in
the Section 4.02 Notice certificates representing the Drag Along Portion of
such Other Stockholder's Company Securities, duly endorsed, together with all
other documents required to be executed in connection with such Section 4.02
Sale.  If any Other Stockholder should fail to deliver such certificates to
DLJMB, the Company shall cause the books and records of the Company to show
that the Drag-Along Portion of such Other Stockholder's Company Securities
are bound

                                       18

<PAGE>

by the provisions of this Section 4.02 and Section 4.03 and that such Company
Securities shall be transferred to the purchaser of the Company Securities
subject to the Section 4.02 Sale immediately upon surrender for transfer by
the holder thereof.

         (b) The DLJ Entities shall have a period of 90 days from the date of
receipt of the Section 4.02 Notice to consummate the Section 4.02 Sale on the
terms and conditions set forth in such Section 4.02 Sale Notice.  If the
Section 4.02 Sale shall not have been consummated during such period, DLJMB
shall return to each of the Other Stockholders all certificates representing
Company Securities that such Other Stockholder delivered for transfer
pursuant hereto, together with any documents in the possession of DLJMB
executed by the Other Stockholder in connection with such proposed Section
4.02 Sale, and all the restrictions on transfer contained in this Agreement
or otherwise applicable at such time with respect to the Company Securities
owned by the Other Stockholders shall again be in effect.

         (c) Concurrently with the consummation of any Section 4.02 Sale
pursuant to this Section 4.02 and Section 4.03, DLJMB shall give notice
thereof to all Stockholders, shall remit to each Stockholder who has
surrendered certificates in connection with such Section 4.02 Sale the total
consideration (by bank or certified check) for the Company Securities
represented by such Stockholder's certificates and shall furnish such other
evidence of the completion and time of completion of such Section 4.02 Sale
and the terms thereof as may be reasonably requested by such Stockholders.

         Section 4.03.  CERTAIN RIGHTS.  It is understood and agreed that the
employment agreements or associated restricted stock purchase agreements
between one or more Management Stockholders and the Company or any Subsidiary
may contain provisions permitting or requiring, under certain circumstances,
such Management Stockholders to sell to the Company or a Subsidiary, and
permitting or requiring, under certain circumstances, the Company or such
Subsidiary to purchase from such Management Stockholder, Common Shares.  Such
provisions may, by the terms of such agreements, remain effective
notwithstanding that the employment relationship created by such employment
agreements has been terminated, in which event such provisions are deemed to
be incorporated herein and made a part hereof, to the extent appropriate.

                                Registration Rights

       Section 5.01.  DEMAND REGISTRATION. (a)  If the Company shall receive
a written request by either (x) the DLJ Entities or their Permitted
Transferees or (y) the Requisite DLJIP Entities (any such requesting Person,
a "SELLING STOCKHOLDER") that the Company effect the registration under the
Securities Act, which, in the case of the Requisite DLJIP Entities, shall be
a Shelf Registration, of all or a portion of such Selling Stockholder's
Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of disposition
thereof, then the Company shall promptly give written notice of such
requested registration (a "DEMAND REGISTRATION") at least 10 days prior to
the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating to such
Demand Registration to the Stockholders other than the Selling Stockholders
and thereupon will use its best efforts to effect, as expeditiously as
possible, the registration under the Securities Act of:

              (i)    the Registrable Securities then held by the Selling
Stockholders which the Company has been so requested to register by the
Selling Stockholders; and

             (ii)   subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.04,
all other Registrable Securities of the same type as that to which the
request by the Selling Stockholders relates which any Other Stockholder
entitled to request the Company to effect an Incidental Registration (as such
term is defined in Section 5.02) pursuant to Section 5.02 (all such
Stockholders, together with the Selling Stockholders, the "HOLDERS") has
requested the Company to register by written request received by the Company
within 5 days after the receipt by such Holders of such written notice given
by the Company,

all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the
intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so to be
registered; PROVIDED that, subject to Section 5.01(d) hereof, (I) the Company
shall not be obligated to effect more than six Demand Registrations for the
DLJ Entities and (II) the Company shall not be obligated to effect more than
two Demand Registrations for the Requisite DLJIP Entities; and PROVIDED,
FURTHER, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand
Registration for the DLJ Entities unless the aggregate proceeds expected to
be received from the sale of Registrable Securities to be included in such
Demand Registration, in the reasonable opinion of DLJMB exercised in good
faith, equal or exceed (x) $25,000,000 if such Demand Registration would
constitute the Initial Public Offering, or (y) $10,000,000 in all other
cases.  In no event will the Company be

                                     20

<PAGE>

required to effect more than one Demand Registration within any four-month
period.

       (b) Promptly after the expiration of the 5-day period referred to in
Section 5.01(a)(ii) hereof, the Company will notify all the Holders to be
included in the Demand Registration of the other Holders and the number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included therein.  The Selling
Stockholders requesting a registration under this Section may, at any time
prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to such
registration, revoke such request, without liability to any of the other
Holders, by providing a written notice to the Company revoking such request,
in which case such request, so revoked, shall be considered a Demand
Registration unless the participating Stockholders reimburse the Company for
all costs incurred by the Company in connection with such registration or
unless such revocation arose out of the fault of the Company.

       (c) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with
any Demand Registration.

       (d) A registration requested pursuant to this Section shall not be
deemed to have been effected unless the registration statement relating
thereto (A) has become effective under the Securities Act and (B) has
remained effective for a period of at least 180 days (or such shorter period
in which all Registrable Securities of the Holders included in such
registration have actually been sold thereunder); PROVIDED that if (i) after
any registration statement requested pursuant to this Section becomes
effective (x) such registration statement is interfered with by any stop
order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other
governmental agency or court and (y) less than 75% of the Registrable
Securities included in such registration statement is sold thereunder, or
(ii) the Maximum Offering Size (as defined below) is reduced in accordance
with Section 5.01(e) such that less than 66 2/3% of the Registrable Securities
of the Selling Stockholders sought to be included in such registration are
included, such registration statement shall be at the sole expense of the
Company and shall not be considered a Demand Registration; and PROVIDED
FURTHER that, in the event of any Black Out Period (defined below), any Shelf
Registration will remain effective for a period of time equal to 180 days
plus the length of such Black Out Period.

       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to
file, amend or supplement any Shelf Registration, any related prospectus or
any document incorporated therein by reference, for a period (a "BLACK OUT
PERIOD") not to exceed an aggregate of 60 days in any calendar year, in the
event that (i) in the case of any amendment or supplement only, an event
occurs and is continuing as a result of which the Shelf Registration, any
related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference as then
amended or supplemented would, in the Company's good faith judgment, contain
an untrue statement of a

                                       21

<PAGE>

material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, and (ii) in all cases, (A) the Company determines in
its good faith judgment that the disclosure of such event at such time would
have a material adverse effect on the business, operations or prospects of
the Company or (B) the disclosure otherwise relates to a material business
transaction which has not yet been publicly disclosed; PROVIDED that such
Black Out Period shall be extended for any period, not to exceed an aggregate
of 30 days in any calendar year, during which the SEC is reviewing any
proposed amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration, any related
prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference which has been
filed by the Company.

       (e) If a Demand Registration involves an Underwritten Public Offering
and the managing underwriter shall advise the Company and the Selling
Stockholders that, in its view,(i) the number and/or type of Registrable
Securities requested to be included in such registration (including any
securities which the Company proposes to be included which are not
Registrable Securities) or (ii) the inclusion of some or all of the
Registrable Securities owned by the Holders, in any such case, exceeds the
largest number and/or type of securities which can be sold without having an
adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities
can be sold (the "MAXIMUM OFFERING SIZE"), the Company will include in such
registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Offering Size:

                   (A)   first, all Registrable Securities requested to be
           registered by the Selling Stockholders (allocated, if necessary for
           the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro rata among
           such Holders on the basis of the relative number of shares of
           Registrable Securities so requested to be registered);

                   (B)   second, all Registrable Securities requested to be
           included in such registration by any other Holder and their
           Permitted Transferees (allocated, if necessary for the offering not
           to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro rata among such Holders on
           the basis of the relative number of shares of Registrable Securities
           so requested to be included); and

                   (C)   third, any securities proposed to be registered by
           the Company.

       (f)    If, in connection with any Demand Registration pursuant to
this Section or any sale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act with
respect to the Common Shares, Preferred Shares or shares of Senior Preferred
Stock, any Selling Stockholder shall seek to transfer any Warrants together
with Common

                                       22

<PAGE>

Shares, Preferred Shares or shares of Senior Preferred Stock, the Company
shall at the request of any such Selling Stockholder effect a registration of
such Warrants to which the provisions of this Article 5 shall apply MUTATIS
MUTANDIS and a registration, pursuant to a Shelf Registration, so as to
permit the resale of the Common Shares for which any Warrants so transferred
may be exercisable. The Company shall maintain the effectiveness of any such
Shelf Registration, and take all actions necessary to permit resale of such
Common Shares as may be required by applicable state securities laws.

      Section 5.02.  INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION. (a)  If the Company proposes to
register any Company Securities under the Securities Act (other than a
registration of Common Shares (A) issuable upon exercise of employee stock
options or in connection with any employee benefit or similar plan of the
Company or (B) in connection with a direct or indirect acquisition by the
Company of another company), whether or not for sale for its own account, it
will each such time, subject to the provisions of Section 5.02(b), give
prompt written notice at least 10 days prior to the anticipated filing date
of the registration statement relating to such registration to each DLJ
Entity and each Other Stockholder, which notice shall set forth such
Stockholder's rights under this Section 5.02 and shall offer such
Stockholders the opportunity to include in such registration statement such
number of Registrable Securities of the same type as are proposed to be
registered as each such Stockholder may request (an "INCIDENTAL
REGISTRATION").  Upon the written request of any such Stockholder made within
5 days after the receipt of notice from the Company (which request shall
specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by
such Stockholder), the Company will use its best efforts to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the
Company has been so requested to register by such Stockholders, to the extent
requisite to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be
registered; PROVIDED that (1) if such registration involves an Underwritten
Public Offering, all such Stockholders requesting to be included in the
Company's registration must sell their Registrable Securities to the
underwriters selected as provided in Section 5.04(f) on the same terms and
conditions as apply to the Company and (2) if, at any time after giving
written notice of its intention to register any stock pursuant to this
Section 5.02(a) and prior to the effective date of the registration statement
filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for
any reason not to register such securities, the Company shall give written
notice to all such Stockholders and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its
obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such
registration (without prejudice, however, to the rights of any DLJ Entity
under Section 5.01).  No registration effected under this Section 5.02 shall
relieve the Company of its obligations to effect a Demand Registration to the
extent required by Section 5.01.  The Company will pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities
requested pursuant to this Section 5.02.

                                       23

<PAGE>

       (b) If a registration pursuant to this Section 5.02 involves an
Underwritten Public Offering (other than in the case of an Underwritten
Public Offering requested by a Selling Stockholder in a Demand Registration,
in which case the provisions with respect to priority of inclusion in such
offering set forth in Section 5.01(e) shall apply) and the managing
underwriter advises the Company that, in its view, the number and/or type of
shares of Registrable Securities which the Company and the Stockholders
intend to include in such registration exceeds the Maximum Offering Size, the
Company will include in such registration, in the priority listed below, up
to the Maximum Offering Size:

              (i)   first, so much of the securities proposed to be registered
       for the account of the Company as would not cause the offering to exceed
       the Maximum Offering Size; and

              (ii)   second, all Registrable Securities requested to be
       included in such registration pursuant to Section 5.02 (allocated, if
       necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro
       rata among such Stockholders on the basis of the relative number of
       shares of Registrable Securities requested to be so included).

       Section 5.03.  HOLDBACK AGREEMENTS.  If any registration of
Registrable Securities shall be in connection with an Underwritten Public
Offering, each Stockholder agrees not to effect any public sale or
distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144, or any successor
provision, under the Securities Act, of any Registrable Securities, and not
to effect any such public sale or distribution of any Common Shares or of any
stock convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Common Shares
(in each case, other than as part of such Underwritten Public Offering)
during the 14 days prior to the effective date of such registration statement
(except as part of such registration) or during the period after such
effective date equal to the lesser of (i) such period of time as agreed
between such managing underwriter and the Company and (ii) 180 days (such
lesser period, the "APPLICABLE HOLDBACK PERIOD").

       Section 5.04.  REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.  Whenever Stockholders request
that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to Section 5.01 or
5.02, the Company will, subject to the provisions of such Sections, use its
best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable
Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof as
quickly as practicable, and in connection with any such request:

       (a) The Company will as expeditiously as possible prepare and file
with the SEC a registration statement on any form for which the Company then
qualifies or which counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which
form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities to be
registered

                                       24

<PAGE>

thereunder in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof,
and use its best efforts to cause such filed registration statement to become
and remain effective for a period of not less than 180 days.

       (b) The Company will, if requested, prior to filing a registration
statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to
each Stockholder holding Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement and each underwriter, if any, of the Registrable Securities covered
by such registration statement copies of such registration statement as
proposed to be filed, and thereafter the Company will furnish to such
Stockholder and underwriter, if any, such number of copies of such
registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case
including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference
therein), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including
each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such Stockholder or
underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of
the Registrable Securities owned by such Stockholder.

       (c) After the filing of the registration statement, the Company will
promptly notify each Stockholder holding Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC
and take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop
order or to remove it if entered.

       (d) The Company will use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify
the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under such
other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United States
as any Stockholder holding such Registrable Securities reasonably (in light
of such Stockholder's intended plan of distribution) requests and (ii) cause
such Registrable Securities to be registered with or approved by such other
governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the
business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and
things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such
Stockholder to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned
by such Stockholder; PROVIDED that the Company will not be required to (A)
qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not
otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph (d),(B) subject
itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service
of process in any such jurisdiction.

       (e) The Company will immediately notify each Stockholder holding such
Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the occurrence of an
event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such
prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such
Registrable Securities, such

                                       25

<PAGE>

prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading and promptly prepare and make available
to each such Stockholder any such supplement or amendment.

       (f) (i)The DLJ Entities will have the right, in their sole discretion,
to select an underwriter or underwriters in connection with any Public
Offering resulting from the exercise by any such DLJ Entity or its Permitted
Transferee of a Demand Registration, which underwriter or underwriters may
include any Affiliate of any DLJ Entity and (ii) the Company will select an
underwriter or underwriters in connection with any other Public Offering.  In
connection with any Public Offering, the Company will enter into customary
agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take
such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or
facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities in any such Public
Offering, including the engagement of a "qualified independent underwriter"
in connection with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements with
the NASD.

       (g) Upon the execution of confidentiality agreements in form and
substance satisfactory to the Company, the Company will make available for
inspection by any Stockholder and any underwriter participating in any
disposition pursuant to a registration statement being filed by the Company
pursuant to this Section 5.04 and any attorney, accountant or other
professional retained by any such Stockholder or underwriter (collectively,
the "INSPECTORS"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate
documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the "RECORDS") as
shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence
responsibility, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to
supply all information reasonably requested by any Inspectors in connection
with such registration statement.  Records that the Company determines, in
good faith, to be confidential and that it notifies the Inspectors are
confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the
disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or
omission in such registration statement or (ii) the release of such Records
is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent
jurisdiction.  Each Stockholder agrees that information obtained by it as a
result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used
by it as the basis for any market transactions in the Company Securities or
its Affiliates unless and until such is made generally available to the
public. Each Stockholder further agrees that it will, upon learning that
disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction,
give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to
undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed
confidential.

                                       26

<PAGE>

       (h) The Company will furnish to each such Stockholder and to each such
underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed to such underwriter, of
(i)an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Company and (ii) a comfort letter
or comfort letters from the Company's independent public accountants, each in
customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by
opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as a majority of such
Stockholders or the managing underwriter therefor reasonably requests.

       (i) The Company will otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its
stockholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement
covering a period of 12 months, beginning within three months after the
effective date of the registration statement, which earnings statement shall
satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

       The Company may require each such Stockholder to promptly furnish in
writing to the Company such information regarding the distribution of the
Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably
request and such other information as may be legally required in connection
with such registration.

       Each such Stockholder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the
Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
5.04(e), such Stockholder will forthwith discontinue disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such
Registrable Securities until such Stockholder's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 5.04(e), and, if
so directed by the Company, such Stockholder will deliver to the Company all
copies, other than any permanent file copies then in such Stockholder's
possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.  In the event that the
Company shall give such notice, the Company shall extend the period during
which such registration statement shall be maintained effective (including
the period referred to in Section 5.04(a)) by the number of days during the
period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to
Section 5.04(e) to the date when the Company shall make available to such
Stockholder a prospectus supplemented or amended to conform with the
requirements of Section 5.04(e).

       Each Stockholder agrees that, upon receipt of the notice from the
Company of the commencement of a Black Out Period (in each case, a "BLACK OUT
NOTICE"), such Person will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration until such Person is advised in

                                       27

<PAGE>

writing by the Company of the termination of the Black Out Period.  Each
Person receiving a Black Out Notice hereby agrees that it will either (i)
destroy any prospectuses, other than permanent file copies, then in such
Person's possession which have been replaced by the Company with more
recently dated prospectuses or (ii) deliver to the Company (at the Company's
expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Person's
possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities that was
current at the time of receipt of the Black Out Notice.

       Section 5.05.  INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY.  The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each Stockholder holding Registrable Securities
covered by a registration statement, its officers, directors and agents, and
each person, if any, who controls such Stockholder within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable
Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished
any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or
caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are
caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement
or omission based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by
such Stockholder or on such Stockholder's behalf expressly for use therein;
PROVIDED that with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus, or in any
prospectus, as the case may be, the indemnity agreement contained in this
paragraph shall not apply to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense results from the fact that a current copy of the
prospectus (or, in the case of a prospectus, the prospectus as amended or
supplemented) was not sent or given to the person asserting any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or expense at or prior to the written confirmation
of the sale of the Registrable Securities concerned to such person if it is
determined that the Company has provided such prospectus and it was the
responsibility of such Stockholder to provide such person with a current copy
of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case
may be) and such current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or
supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) would have cured the defect
giving rise to such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense.  The Company
also agrees to indemnify any underwriters of the Registrable Securities,
their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters
on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the
Stockholders provided in this Section 5.05.

                                       28

<PAGE>

       Section 5.06.  INDEMNIFICATION BY PARTICIPATING STOCKHOLDERS.  Each
Stockholder holding Registrable Securities included in any registration
statement agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, its officers, directors and agents and each Person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the
foregoing indemnity from the Company to such Stockholder, but only (i) with
respect to information furnished in writing by such Stockholder or on such
Stockholder's behalf expressly for use in any registration statement or
prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus or (ii) to the extent that
any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense described in Section 5.05
results from the fact that a current copy of the prospectus (or, in the case
of a prospectus, the prospectus as amended or supplemented) was not sent or
given to the Person asserting any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the
Registrable Securities concerned to such Person if it is determined that it
was the responsibility of such Stockholder to provide such Person with a
current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus,
as the case may be) and such current copy of the prospectus (or such amended
or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) would have cured the defect
giving rise to such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense.  Each such
Stockholder also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless underwriters of the
Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who
controls such underwriters on substantially the same basis as that of the
indemnification of the Company provided in this Section 5.06.  As a condition
to including Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in
accordance with Article 5 hereof, the Company may require that it shall have
received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from any underwriter to
indemnify and hold it harmless to the extent customarily provided by
underwriters with respect to similar securities.

       Section 5.07.  CONDUCT OF INDEMNIFICATION PROCEEDINGS.  In case any
proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted
involving any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to
this Article 5, such Person (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall promptly notify
the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING
PARTY") in writing and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses;
PROVIDED that the failure of any Indemnified Party so to notify the
Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is
materially prejudiced by such failure to notify.  In any such proceeding, any
Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the
fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified
Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party

                                       29

<PAGE>

shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) in the
reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party representation of both parties
by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between them.  It is understood that the Indemnifying
Party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in
the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any
time for all such Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses
shall be reimbursed as they are incurred.  In the case of any such separate
firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by
the Indemnified Parties.  The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if
settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff,
the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified
Parties from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above)
by reason of such settlement or judgment.  No Indemnifying Party shall,
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes
an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising
out of such proceeding.

       Section 5.08.  CONTRIBUTION.  If the indemnification provided for in
this Article 5 is unavailable to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, then each such
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a
result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) as between the
Company and the Stockholders holding Registrable Securities covered by a
registration statement on the one hand and the underwriters on the other, in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company and such Stockholders on the one hand and the underwriters on
the other, from the offering of the Registrable Securities, or if such
allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits but also the relative
fault of the Company and such Stockholders on the one hand and of such
underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions
which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations and (ii) as between the Company on
the one hand and each such Stockholder on the other, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and of each such
Stockholder in connection with such statements or omissions, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative benefits received by
the Company and such Stockholders on the one hand and such underwriters on
the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds
from the offering (net of underwriting discounts

                                       30

<PAGE>

and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Company and
such Stockholders bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions
received by such underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the
cover page of the prospectus. The relative fault of the Company and such
Stockholders on the one hand and of such underwriters on the other shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and such
Stockholders or by such underwriters. The relative fault of the Company on
the one hand and of each such Stockholder on the other shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by such party, and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct
or prevent such statement or omission.

       The Company and the Stockholders agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.08 were determined by
pro rata allocation (even if the underwriters were treated as one entity for
such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any
such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.08, no
underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
amount by which the total price at which the Registrable Securities
underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public
exceeds the amount of any damages which such underwriter has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission, and no Stockholder shall be required to
contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at
which the Registrable Securities of such Stockholder were offered to the
public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Stockholder has otherwise
been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission.  No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.  Each such Stockholder's obligation to
contribute pursuant to this Section 5.08 is several in the proportion that
the proceeds of the offering received by such Stockholder bears to the total
proceeds of the offering received by all such Stockholders and not joint.

       Section 5.09.  PARTICIPATION IN PUBLIC OFFERING.  No Person may
participate in any Public Offering hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to
sell

                                       31

<PAGE>

such Person's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably
required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and the provisions
of this Agreement in respect of registration rights.

         Section 5.10.  OTHER INDEMNIFICATION.  Indemnification similar to
that specified herein (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the
Company and each Stockholder participating therein with respect to any
required registration or other qualification of securities under any federal
or state law or regulation or governmental authority other than the
Securities Act.

         Section 5.11.  COOPERATION BY THE COMPANY.  In the event any
Stockholder shall transfer any Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act, the Company shall cooperate, to the extent
commercially reasonable, with such Stockholder and shall provide to such
Stockholder such information as such Stockholder shall reasonably request.

entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements
and understandings, oral and written, among the parties hereto with respect
to the subject matter hereof.

         Section 6.02.  BINDING EFFECT; BENEFIT.  This Agreement shall inure
to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.  Nothing in
this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall confer on any Person other than
the parties hereto, and their respective heirs, successors, legal
representatives and permitted assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

         Section 6.03.  EXCLUSIVE FINANCIAL AND INVESTMENT BANKING ADVISOR.
During the period from and including the date of the Original Agreement
through and including the fifth anniversary of such date, Donaldson, Lufkin &
Jenrette Securities Corporation ("DLJSC"), or any Affiliate of DLJSC that the

such Affiliate shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all
expenses incurred by DLJSC or such

                                    32
<PAGE>

Affiliate (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) as
financial and investment banking advisor of the Company.

         Section 6.04.  ASSIGNABILITY.  This Agreement shall not be
assignable by any party hereto, except that any Person acquiring Company
Securities who is required by the terms of this Agreement or any employment
agreement or stock purchase, option, stock option or other compensation plan
of the Company or any Subsidiary to become a party hereto shall (unless
already bound hereby) execute and deliver to the Company an agreement to be
bound by this Agreement and shall thenceforth be a "STOCKHOLDER"; PROVIDED
that, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.06, the DLJIP Entities and
their Permitted Transferees may assign their rights and obligations under
this Agreement to any Person acquiring Company Securities upon execution by
such Person of an agreement to be bound by this Agreement, which Person shall
thenceforth be a "STOCKHOLDER".  Any Stockholder who ceases to own
beneficially any Company Securities shall cease to be bound by the terms
hereof (other than the provisions of Sections 5.05, 5.06, 5.07, 5.08, and
5.10 applicable to such Stockholder with respect to any offering of
Registrable Securities completed before the date such Stockholder ceased to
own any Company Securities).

         Section 6.05.  AMENDMENT; WAIVER; TERMINATION. No provision of this
Agreement may be waived except by an instrument in writing executed by the
party against whom the waiver is to be effective.  No provision of this
Agreement may be amended or otherwise modified except by an instrument in
writing executed by the Company with the approval of the Board and
Stockholders holding at least 75% of the outstanding Shares.

communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including

such day is not a Business Day, then on the next succeeding day that shall be a
Business Day. To exercise this Warrant, the Holder shall execute and

<PAGE>
                                      -3-

deliver to the Company a Warrant Exercise Notice substantially in the form
annexed hereto. No earlier than ten days after delivery of the Warrant
Exercise Notice, the Holder shall deliver to the Company this Warrant
Certificate duly executed by the Holder, together with payment of the
applicable Exercise Price; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in connection with a
public offering of the Common Stock, a Holder may deliver the Warrant
Exercise Notice and this Warrant Certificate to the Company simultaneously.
Upon such delivery and payment, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder
of record of the Warrant Shares subject to such exercise, notwithstanding
that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that
certificates representing such Warrant Shares shall not then be actually
delivered to the Holder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in
lieu of payment in cash of the applicable Exercise Price, the Holder may
elect (i) to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of Warrant
Shares reduced by a number of shares of Common Stock having the aggregate
Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant
Shares, (ii) to deliver as payment, in whole or in part of the aggregate
Exercise Price, shares of Common Stock having the aggregate Fair Market Value
equal to the applicable portion of the aggregate Exercise Price for the
Warrant Shares or (iii) to deliver as payment, in whole or in part of the
aggregate Exercise Price, such number of Warrants which, if exercised, would
result in a number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market
Value equal to the applicable portion of the aggregate Exercise Price for the
Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section
B(1), if the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock applied or
delivered pursuant to (i), (ii) or (iii) above exceeds the aggregate Exercise
Price, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to receive any amounts from
the Company.

                  (2) If DeCrane Aircraft Holdings, Inc. shall have redeemed all
outstanding shares of 16% Senior Redeemable Exchangeable Preferred Stock due
2009 on or before June 30, 2001, 50% of the Warrant Shares underlying this
Warrant shall be forfeited. This Warrant shall not be exercisable for the
Warrant Shares so subject to forfeiture until June 30, 2001. In the case of such
forfeiture, the Company shall file an officers' certificate in the same manner
as provided in Section H(11) with regard to anti-dilution adjustments.

                  (3) The Exercise Price may be paid in cash or by certified or
official bank check or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the Company
or by any combination of such cash or check. The Company shall pay any and all
documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the
issue or delivery of the Warrant Shares.

                  (4) If the Holder exercises this Warrant in part, this Warrant
Certificate shall be surrendered by the Holder to the Company and a new Warrant
Certificate of the same tenor and for the unexercised number of Warrant Shares
shall be executed by the Company. The Company shall register the new Warrant
Certificate in the name of the Holder or in such name or names of its transferee
pursuant to Section F hereof as may be directed in writing by the Holder and
deliver the new Warrant Certificate to the Person or Persons entitled to receive
the same.

                  (5) Upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate in conformity
with the foregoing provisions, the Company shall transfer to the Holder of this
Warrant Certificate appropriate evidence of ownership of the shares of Common
Stock or other securities or property (including any money) to which the Holder
is entitled, registered or otherwise placed in, or payable to the order of, the
name or

<PAGE>
                                      -4-

names of the Holder or such transferee as may be directed in writing by the
Holder, and shall deliver such evidence of ownership and any other securities
or property (including any money) to the Person or Persons entitled to
receive the same, together with an amount in cash in lieu of any fraction of
a share as provided in Section E below.

         C. RESTRICTIVE LEGEND. Certificates representing shares of Common Stock
issued pursuant to this Warrant shall bear a legend substantially in the form of
the legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant Certificate to the extent
that and for so long as such legend is required pursuant to the Investors'
Agreement.

         D. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company hereby agrees that at all times
it shall reserve for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant such
number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock or other securities
of the Company from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as will
be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant. All such shares
shall be duly authorized and, when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, security
interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and
clear of all preemptive rights, except to the extent set forth in the Investors'
Agreement.

         E. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant and in lieu
of delivery of any such fractional share upon any exercise hereof, the Company
shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Current Market Price Per Common Share (as defined in Section H(6)) at the
date of such exercise.

         The Company further agrees that it will not change the par value of the
Common Stock from par value $0.01 per share to any higher par value which
exceeds the Exercise Price then in effect, and will reduce the par value of the
Common Stock upon any event described in Section H that (i) provides for an
increase in the number of shares of Common Stock subject to purchase upon
exercise of this Warrant, in inverse proportion to and effective at the same
time as such number of shares is increased, but only to the extent that such
increase in the number of shares, together with all other such increases after
the date hereof, causes the aggregate Exercise Price of all Warrants (without
giving effect to any exercise thereof) to be greater than $1,393.57 or (ii)
would, but for this provision, reduce the Exercise Price below the par value of
the Common Stock.

         F.       EXCHANGE, TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF WARRANT.

                  (1) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares are subject to the
provisions of the Investors' Agreement, including the restrictions on transfer.
Each holder of this Warrant Certificate by holding the same, consents and agrees
that the registered holder hereof may be treated by the Company and all other
persons dealing with this Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner hereof for
any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented
hereby. The Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, will be subject to the
provisions of, and will have the benefits of, the Investors' Agreement to the
extent set forth therein, including the transfer restrictions and the
registration rights included therein.

                  (2) Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions set
forth in the Investors' Agreement, upon surrender of this Warrant to the
Company, together with the attached Warrant Assignment Form duly executed, the
Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of
the assignee or assignees named in such instrument of assignment and, if the
Holder's entire interest is not being assigned, in the name of the Holder and
this Warrant shall promptly be canceled.

         G. LOSS OR DESTRUCTION OF WARRANT. Upon receipt by the Company of
evidence satisfactory to it (in the exercise of its reasonable discretion) of
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant Certificate, and (in
the case of loss, theft or destruction) of reasonably satisfactory
indemnification, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant
Certificate, if mutilated, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant
Certificate of like tenor and date.

         H. ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS. The Exercise Price of this Warrant and the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant may be exercised shall
be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events
as provided in this Section H; PROVIDED that notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the Exercise Price shall not be less than the par
value of the Common Stock, as such par value may be reduced from time to time in
accordance with Section E.

                  (1) In case the Company shall at any time after the date
hereof (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on Common Stock payable in
Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or split the outstanding Common Stock, (iii)
combine or reclassify the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of
Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation), the
Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or
distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, split, combination or
reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that, after giving effect
to Section H(9), the exercise of this Warrant after such time shall entitle the
holder to receive the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or other
securities of the Company (or shares of any security into which such shares of
Common Stock have been reclassified pursuant to clause (iii) or (iv) above)
which, if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such time, such
holder would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive by
virtue of such dividend, distribution, subdivision, split, combination or
reclassification. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event
listed above shall occur.

                  (2) In case the Company shall issue or sell any Common Stock
(other than Common Stock issued (I) upon exercise of the Warrants, (II) upon
exercise of any of the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares and
155,000 shares of Common Stock issued by the Corporation on August 28, 1999 and
October 5, 1998, respectively, and upon exercise of any options to purchase an
aggregate of 44,612 shares of Common Stock issued on July 30, 1999
(collectively, the "OUTSTANDING WARRANTS AND OPTIONS"), (III) pursuant to the
exercise of any option issued pursuant to any Common Stock related employee
compensation plan of the Company approved by the Board of Directors to the
extent that the exercise price for such option is greater than or equal to the
Current Market Price Per Common Share at the time such option was granted, or
(IV) upon exercise or conversion of

<PAGE>
                                      -6-

any security the issuance of which caused an adjustment under Section H(3) or
H(4) hereof), the Exercise Price to be in effect after such issuance or sale
shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such issuance or sale by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to the time of such issuance or sale multiplied by the Current Market
Price Per Common Share immediately prior to such issuance or sale and (y) the
aggregate consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon such
issuance or sale, and the denominator of which shall be the product of the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
issuance or sale and the Current Market Price Per Common Share immediately
prior to such issuance or sale but in no event will such fraction exceed 1.
In case any portion of the consideration to be received by the Company shall
be in a form other than cash, the fair market value of such noncash
consideration shall be utilized in the foregoing computation. Such fair
market value shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company;
PROVIDED that if the Principal Holders shall object to any such
determination, the Board of Directors shall retain an independent appraiser
reasonably satisfactory to the Principal Holders to determine such fair
market value. The Holder shall be notified promptly of any consideration
other than cash to be received by the Company and furnished with a
description of the consideration and the fair market value thereof, as
determined by the Board of Directors.

                  (3) In case the Company shall fix a record date for the
issuance of rights, options or warrants to the holders of its Common Stock or
other securities entitling such holders to subscribe for or purchase for a
period expiring within 60 days of such record date shares of Common Stock (or
securities convertible into shares of Common Stock) at a price per share of
Common Stock (or having a conversion price per share of Common Stock, if a
security convertible into shares of Common Stock) less than the Current Market
Price Per Common Share on such record date, the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants (or
conversion of such convertible securities) shall be deemed to have been issued
and outstanding as of such record date and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
pursuant to Section H(2) hereof, as though such maximum number of shares of
Common Stock had been so issued for an aggregate consideration payable by the
holders of such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities prior to
their receipt of such shares of Common Stock. In case any portion of such
consideration shall be in a form other than cash, the fair market value of such
noncash consideration shall be determined as set forth in Section H(2) hereof.
Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such record date is fixed;
and in the event (i) that such rights, options or warrants are not so issued or
expire unexercised, or (ii) of a change in the number of shares of Common Stock
to which the holders of such rights, options or warrants are entitled (other
than pursuant to adjustment provisions therein which are no more favorable in
their entirety than those contained in this Section H), the Exercise Price shall
again be adjusted to be the Exercise Price which would then be in effect in the
case of clause (i), if such record date had not been fixed, or in the case of
clause (ii), if such holders had initially been entitled to such changed number
of shares of Common Stock.

                  (4) In case the Company shall sell or issue rights, options
(other than options issued pursuant to a plan described in clause (III) of
Section H(2)) or warrants entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or
purchase Common Stock (or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock)
(other than the Outstanding Warrants and Options) or shall issue convertible
securities, and the price per share of Common Stock of such rights, options,
warrants or convertible securities

<PAGE>
                                      -7-

(including, in the case of rights, options or warrants, the price at which
they may be exercised) is less than the Current Market Price Per Common
Share, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
such rights, options or warrants or upon conversion of such convertible
securities shall be deemed to have been issued and outstanding as of the date
of such sale or issuance, and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant
to Section H(2) hereof as though such maximum number of shares of Common
Stock had been so issued for an aggregate consideration equal to the
aggregate consideration paid for such rights, options, warrants or
convertible securities and the aggregate consideration payable by the holders
of such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities prior to their
receipt of such shares of Common Stock. In case any portion of such
consideration shall be in a form other than cash, the fair market value of
such noncash consideration shall be determined as set forth in Section H(2)
hereof. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such rights,
options, warrants or convertible securities are issued; and in the event (i)
that such rights, options or warrants expire unexercised, or (ii) of a change
in the number of shares of Common Stock to which the holders of such rights,
options, warrants or convertible securities are entitled (other than pursuant
to adjustment provisions therein which are no more favorable in their
entirety than those contained in this Section H), the Exercise Price shall
again be adjusted to be the Exercise Price which would then be in effect in
the case of clause (i), if such rights, options, warrants or convertible
securities had not been issued, or in the case of clause (ii), if such
holders had initially been entitled to such changed number of shares of
Common Stock. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made pursuant to
this Section H(4) to the extent that the Exercise Price shall have been
adjusted pursuant to Section H(3) upon the setting of any record date
relating to such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities and such
adjustment fully reflects the number of shares of Common Stock to which the
holders of such rights, options, warrants or convertible securities are
entitled and the price payable therefor.

                  (5) In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making
of a distribution to holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution
made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the
surviving corporation) of evidences of indebtedness, cash, assets or other
property (other than dividends payable in Common Stock or rights, options or
warrants referred to in, and for which an adjustment is made pursuant to,
Section H(3) hereof), the Exercise Price to be in effect after such record date
shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
Current Market Price Per Common Share on such record date, less the fair market
value (determined as set forth in Section H(2) hereof) of the portion of the
assets, cash, other property or evidence of indebtedness so to be distributed
which is applicable to one share of Common Stock, and the denominator of which
shall be such Current Market Price Per Common Share. Such adjustments shall be
made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that
such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price shall again be adjusted to
be the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not
been fixed.

                  (6) For the purpose of any computation under Section E or
Section H(2), (3), (4) or (5) hereof, on any determination date, the "CURRENT
MARKET PRICE PER COMMON SHARE" shall be deemed to be the average (weighted by
daily trading volume) of the Daily Prices (as defined below) per share of the
Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days ending three days prior to such
date. "DAILY PRICE" means (1) if the shares of Common Stock then are listed and
traded on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE"), the closing price on such
day as reported on the NYSE Composite

<PAGE>
                                      -8-

Transactions Tape; (2) if the shares of Common Stock then are not listed and
traded on the NYSE, the closing price on such day as reported by the
principal national securities exchange on which the shares are listed and
traded; (3) if the shares of Common Stock then are not listed and traded on
any such securities exchange, the last reported sale price on such day on the
National Market of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ"); (4) if the shares of Common Stock then
are not listed and traded on any such securities exchange and not traded on
the NASDAQ National Market, the average of the highest reported bid and
lowest reported asked price on such day as reported by NASDAQ; or (5) if such
shares are not listed and traded on any such securities exchange, not traded
on the NASDAQ National Market and bid and asked prices are not reported by
NASDAQ, then the average of the closing bid and asked prices, as reported by
The Wall Street Journal for the over-the-counter market. If on any
determination date the shares of Common Stock are not quoted by any such
organization, the Current Market Price Per Common Share shall be the fair
market value of such shares on such determination date as determined by the
Board of Directors, without regard to considerations of the lack of
liquidity, applicable regulatory restrictions or any of the transfer
restrictions or other obligations imposed on such shares set forth in the
Investors' Agreement. If the Principal Holders shall object to any
determination by the Board of Directors of the Current Market Price Per
Common Share, the Current Market Price Per Common Share shall be the fair
market value per share of Common Stock as determined by an independent
appraiser retained by the Company at its expense and reasonably acceptable to
the Principal Holders. For purposes of any computation under this Section H,
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not
include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or its
subsidiaries.

                  (7) No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required
unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one
percent in such price; PROVIDED that any adjustments which by reason of this
Section H(7) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into
account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section H
shall be made to the nearest one tenth of a cent or to the nearest hundredth of
a share, as the case may be.

                  (8) In the event that, at any time as a result of the
provisions of this Section H, the holder of this Warrant upon subsequent
exercise shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock or other
securities of the Company other than Common Stock, the number of such other
shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall thereafter be subject
to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the provisions contained herein.

                  (9) Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price as a result of
the calculations made in Sections H(1), (2), (3), (4) or (5) hereof, the number
of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the making
of such adjustment shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the
adjusted Exercise Price, that number of shares of Common Stock obtained by (i)
multiplying the number of shares covered by this Warrant immediately prior to
this adjustment of the number of shares by the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment of the Exercise Price and (ii) dividing the
product so obtained by the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such
adjustment of the Exercise Price.

<PAGE>
                                      -9-

                  (10) The Company shall notify all Holders of the fixing of a
record date for the purpose of payment of a cash dividend to holders of Common
Stock as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event less than 20 days prior
to any such record date.

                  (11) Not less than 10 nor more than 30 days prior to the
record date or effective date, as the case may be, of any action which requires
or might require an adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section H, the
Company shall forthwith file in the custody of the secretary or any assistant
secretary at its principal executive office and with its stock transfer agent or
its warrant agent, if any, an officers' certificate showing the adjusted
Exercise Price determined as herein provided, setting forth in reasonable detail
the facts requiring such adjustment and the manner of computing such adjustment.
Each such officers' certificate shall be signed by the chairman, president or
chief financial officer of the Company and by the secretary or any assistant
secretary of the Company. Each such officers' certificate shall be made
available at all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder or any holder of
a Warrant executed and delivered pursuant to Section H and the Company shall,
forthwith after each such adjustment, mail a copy, by first-class mail, of such
certificate to the Holder.

                  (12) The Holder shall, at its option, be entitled to receive,
in lieu of the adjustment pursuant to Section H(5) otherwise required thereof,
on the date of exercise of the Warrants, the evidences of indebtedness, other
securities, cash, property or other assets which such Holder would have been
entitled to receive if it had exercised its Warrants for shares of Common Stock
immediately prior to the record date with respect to such distribution. The
Holder may exercise its option under this Section H(12) by delivering to the
Company a written notice of such exercise within seven days of its receipt of
the certificate of adjustment required pursuant to Section H(11) to be delivered
by the Company in connection with such distribution.

         I. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, OR SALE OF ASSETS. In case of any
consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other
Person, any merger of another Person into the Company (other than a merger which
does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of
outstanding shares of Common Stock) or any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company or of the Person formed by such
consolidation or resulting from such merger or which acquires such assets, as
the case may be, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this
Warrant for the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property
receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant may have been exercised
immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, assuming (i)
such holder of Common Stock is not a Person with which the Company consolidated
or into which the Company merged or which merged into the Company or to which
such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be ("CONSTITUENT PERSON"), or an
Affiliate of a constituent Person and (ii) in the case of a consolidation,
merger, sale or transfer which includes an election as to the consideration to
be received by the holders, such holder of Common Stock failed to exercise its
rights of election, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash and other
property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer (PROVIDED
that if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable
upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer is not the same for each share
of Common Stock held immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or
transfer by other than a constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof and in
respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised
("NON-ELECTING SHARE"), then for the purpose of this Section I the kind and
amount of

<PAGE>
                                      -10-

securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation,
merger, sale or transfer by each non-electing share shall be deemed to be the
kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the non-electing
shares). Adjustments for events subsequent to the effective date of such a
consolidation, merger and sale of assets shall be as nearly equivalent as may
be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Warrant. In any such
event, effective provisions shall be made in the certificate or articles of
incorporation of the resulting or surviving corporation, in any contract of
sale, conveyance, lease or transfer, or otherwise so that the provisions set
forth herein for the protection of the rights of the Holder shall thereafter
continue to be applicable; and any such resulting or surviving corporation
shall expressly assume the obligation to deliver, upon exercise, such shares
of stock, other securities, cash and property. The provisions of this Section
I shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, leases
or transfers.

         J. NOTICES. Any notice, demand or delivery authorized by this Warrant
Certificate shall be in writing and shall be given to the Holder or the Company

case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No
failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided
shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
