due date of such payment to but excluding the date the same is paid in full, at
a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate plus 5%, which interest shall be
payable from time to time on demand of the Holder.

               (e) the institution by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of

Company or any of its subsidiaries to the institution of bankruptcy or
insolvency proceedings against it, or the filing by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief
under Federal bankruptcy law or any other applicable Federal or state law, or
the consent by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to the filing of such

discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within sixty (60) days after notice
of such judgment or order to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

         SECTION 3.2 ACCELERATION OF NOTE. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, then and in every such case the Holder may declare the outstanding
principal amount of this Note (including accrued interest as provided in ARTICLE
I hereof) to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company, and upon any such declaration such principal shall become immediately
due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default
referenced in paragraph (d) or paragraph (e) of SECTION 3.1 occurs, the
outstanding principal amount of this Note (including accrued interest as
provided in ARTICLE I hereof) shall automatically become due and payable
immediately without any declaration or other action on the part of the Holder.
At any time after the outstanding principal amount of this Note shall become
immediately due and payable and before a judgment or decree for payment of the
money due has been obtained, the Holder, by written notice to the Company, may
rescind and annul any acceleration and its consequences.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                   CONVERSION

         SECTION 4.1 CONVERSION RIGHT. The Holder of this Note is entitled, at
its option, to convert at any time commencing on the date hereof and ending on
the Maturity Date, the principal amount of this Note or any portion thereof,
together with accrued but unpaid interest, into shares of Common Stock of the
Company (the "Conversion Shares") at a conversion price for each share of Common
Stock (the "Conversion Price") equal to U.S.$0.30. If the Holder does not elect
to convert this Note on or before the Maturity Date, it shall no longer have the
right to convert this note into shares of Common Stock of the Company.

         SECTION 4.2 ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONVERSION PRICE. (a) In the event that
the Company shall pay a share dividend or other distribution payable in shares
of Common Stock or on the shares of Common Stock or the issued shares of Common
Stock shall be subdivided, combined or consolidated, by reclassification or
otherwise, into a greater or less number of shares of Common Stock, the
conversion price in effect immediately prior (and each Conversion Price in
effect subsequent) to such subdivision or combination shall, concurrently with
the effectiveness of such subdivision, combination or consolidation, be
proportionately adjusted. In the case of a share dividend or other distribution
payable in shares of Common Stock such adjustment shall occur as follows: the
Conversion Price that is then in effect (and in effect at any time thereafter)
shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance, or in the event a record
date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying
the Conversion Price then (and thereafter) in effect by a fraction (1) the
numerator of which is the total number of shares of issued Common

                                        4

<PAGE>

Stock immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on
such record date, as the case may be, and (2) the denominator of which is the
total number of shares of issued Common Stock immediately prior to the time of
such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution;
provided, however, that, if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not
fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor,
the Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business
on such record date and thereafter the conversion price shall be adjusted to
reflect the actual payment of such dividend or distribution.

               (b) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment to the Conversion
Price pursuant to this Paragraph 4.2, the Company, at its expense, shall
promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare
a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon
which such adjustment is based. The Company shall forthwith mail a copy of each
such certificate to the Holder. In addition, the Company shall mail a notice
notifying the Holder in the event that there shall be a voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company.

         SECTION 4.3 CONVERSION PROCEDURES. (a) Conversion shall be effectuated
by surrendering this Note to the Company (if such Conversion will convert all
outstanding principal), together with the form of conversion notice attached
hereto as Exhibit A (the "Notice of Conversion"), executed by the Holder of this
Note evidencing such Holder's intention to convert this Note or a specified
portion hereof, and accompanied, if required by the Company, by proper
assignment hereof in blank. Interest accrued or accruing from the date of
issuance to the date of conversion shall, at the option of the Holder, be paid
in cash as set forth above or in Common Stock upon conversion at the Conversion
Price on the date of conversion. No fraction of a share or scrip representing a
fraction of a share will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares
issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. The date on which Notice
of Conversion is given (the "Conversion Date") shall be deemed to be the date on
which the Holder faxes the Notice of Conversion duly executed to the Company.
Facsimile delivery of the Notice of Conversion shall be accepted by the Company
at facsimile number (604) 433-7527 Attn.: Chairman and CEO. One or more
certificates representing the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable
upon such conversion will be delivered, at the Company's expense, to the Holder
within ten (10) Business Days from the date the Notice of Conversion is
delivered to the Company. Delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion
shall be made to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of
Conversion.

               (b) If at any time (i) the Company challenges, disputes or denies
the right of the Holder to effect the conversion of this Note into Common Stock
or otherwise dishonors or rejects any Notice of Conversion delivered in
accordance with this Paragraph 4.3 or (ii) any Company stockholder who is not
and has never been an Affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended) of the Holder obtains a judgment or any injunctive relief
from any court or public or governmental authority which denies, enjoins,
limits, modifies, delays or disputes the right of the Holder hereof to effect
the conversion of this Note into

                                        5

<PAGE>

Common Stock, then the Holder shall have the right, by written notice, to
require the Company to promptly redeem this Note for cash at a redemption price
equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the outstanding principal amount
hereof and all accrued and unpaid interest hereon. Under any of the
circumstances set forth above, the Company shall be responsible for the payment
of all costs and expenses of the Holder, including reasonable legal fees and
expenses, as and when incurred in disputing any such action or pursuing its
rights hereunder (in addition to any other rights of the Holder), subject in the
case of clause (ii) to the Company's right to control and assume the defense of
any such action. In the absence of an injunction precluding the same, the
Company shall issue shares upon a properly noticed conversion.

               (c) The Holder shall be entitled to exercise its conversion
privilege notwithstanding the commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C.ss.101 ET
SEQ. (the "Bankruptcy Code"). In the event the Company is a debtor under the
Bankruptcy Code, the Company hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted any
rights to relief it may have under 11 . U.S.C.ss.362 in respect of the Holder's
conversion privilege.

         SECTION 4.4 STATUS OF CONVERSION SHARES. The Conversion Shares: (a)
shall be credited as fully paid; (b) shall rank pari passu in all respects and
form one class with the shares of Common Stock then in issue and (c) entitle the
Holder to be paid an appropriate proportion of all dividends and other
distributions declared, made or paid on shares of Common Stock in respect of the
calendar year in which the relevant conversion date falls, but not in respect of
an earlier financial year.

         SECTION 4.5 RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK FOR CONVERSION SHARES. The
Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of effecting the
conversion of the Note such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from
time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of the Note; and, if at any
time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be
sufficient to effect the conversion of the entire outstanding principal amount
of this Note, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the
Holder, the Company will use its best efforts to take such corporate action as
may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient
for such purposes.

         SECTION 4.6 REORGANIZATION, MERGER OR TRANSFER OF ASSETS. If 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 within 12 months from the date of such transfer (any
such transaction being hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "Reorganization")
then, in each such case, the Holder of this Note, on the conversion hereof as
provided in ARTICLE 4 at any time after the consummation or effective date of
such Reorganization (the "Effective Date"), shall receive, in lieu of the shares
of Common Stock issuable on such conversion prior to such consummation or such
effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash)

                                        6

<PAGE>

to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in
connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if the Holder had so
converted this Note, immediately prior thereto; provided that the successor
corporation in any such Reorganization described in clause (b) or (c) above
where the Company will not be the surviving entity (the "Acquiring Company") has
agreed prior to such Reorganization in a writing satisfactory in form and
substance to the Holder that this Note shall continue in full force and effect
and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other
securities and property receivable on conversion after the consummation of such
Reorganization, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other
securities (including, in the case of any transfer of properties or assets
referred to above, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Company). If the Acquiring Company has not so agreed
to continue this Note, then the Company shall give 30 days' prior written notice
to the Holder of this Note of such Reorganization, during which 30-day period
(the "Notice Period") the Holder at its option and upon written notice to the
Company shall be able to (i) convert this Note or any part thereof at a
conversion price (the "Discounted Conversion Price") equal to the then
prevailing conversion price hereunder discounted at the Discount Rate (as used
herein the "Discount Rate" shall mean the then prevailing interest rate on U.S.
Treasury Notes issued on (or immediately prior to) the date of such 30-day
notice and maturing on the Maturity Date (or immediately prior thereto), such
rate to be compounded annually through the Maturity Date, and in no event to be
less than 10% annually); or (ii) on the Effective Date, the Holder of this Note
shall be paid an amount (the "Merger Profit Amount") equal to the difference
between the fair market value per share of Common Stock of the Company being
purchased by the Acquiring Company in the Reorganization and the Discounted
Conversion Price described in clause (i) above and the Note shall simultaneously
expire. The Merger Profit Amount shall be payable in the same form as the common
stockholders of the Company shall be paid by the Acquiring Company for their
shares of Common Stock of the Company. The fair market value of any noncash
property received from the Acquiring Company upon the Reorganization shall be
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, as approved
by the Company's stockholders.

                                    ARTICLE V

         1. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights of the Holder of this Warrant to
register this Warrant or the Shares shall be as stated in the Registration
Rights Agreement dated March __, 2001 between the Company and Orion Capital
Incorporated.

           2.  RESTRICTED STOCK.

               2.1 If, at the time of any transfer or exchange (other than a
transfer or exchange not involving a change in the beneficial ownership of this
Warrant or the Shares) of this Warrant or the Shares, this Warrant or the Shares
shall not be registered under the Securities Act, the Company will require, as a
condition of allowing such transfer or exchange, that the Holder or transferee
of this Warrant or the Shares, as the case may be, furnish to the Company an
opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company. In the case of such
transfer or exchange and in the case of an exercise of this Warrant if the
Shares to be issued thereupon are not registered pursuant to the Securities Act,
the Company will require a written statement that this Warrant or the Shares, as
the case may be, are being acquired for investment and not with a view to the
distribution thereof. The certificates evidencing the Shares issued on the
exercise of this Warrant shall, if such Shares are being sold or transferred
without registration under the Securities Act, bear a legend similar to the
legend on the face page of this Warrant.

               2.2 (a) The Company shall, at all times, make and keep public
information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144
under the Securities Act.

               (b) The Company shall file with the Commission in a timely manner
all required reports and other documents as the Commission may prescribe under
Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

the Shares designated by the Holder, forthwith upon request, (i) a written
statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements
under the Securities Act and of the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act,
(ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, (iii)
any other reports and documents necessary to satisfy the information-furnishing
condition to offers and sales under Rule 144A or Regulation S under the
Securities Act, and (iv) such other reports and documents as the Holder of this
Warrant or the Shares reasonably requests to avail itself of any rule or
regulation of the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any such securities
without registration.

           3.  EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

               3.1 EXERCISE IN FULL. The Holder of this Warrant may exercise it
in full by surrendering this Warrant, with the form of subscription at the end
hereof duly executed by the Holder, to the Company at its principal office.
Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following, or a
combination thereof, at the election of Holder:

                                        3

<PAGE>

               (a) CASH EXERCISE: The surrendered Warrant shall be accompanied
by payment, in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the order
of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of
Common Stock called for on the face of this Warrant by the applicable Purchase
Price; or

               (b) CASHLESS EXERCISE: The surrendered Warrant shall be
accompanied by a notice of cashless election, in which event the Company shall
issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following
formula:

                                  X = Y (A-B)/A

where:     X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.

           Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
               being exercised.

           A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for purposes
           of this Section 3.1(b), the "Market Price" shall be defined as the
           average closing price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading
           days prior to the date of exercise of this Warrant (the "Average
           Closing Price"), as reported by the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, National
           Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System
           ("Nasdaq") Small Cap Market, or if the Common Stock is not traded on
           the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the Average Closing Price in any other
           over-the- counter market; provided, however, that if the Common Stock
           is listed on a stock exchange, the Market Price shall be the Average
           Closing Price on such exchange for the five (5) trading days prior to
           the date of exercise of the Warrant. If the Common Stock is/was not
           traded during the five (5) trading days prior to the Date of
           Exercise, then the closing price for the last publicly traded day
           shall be deemed to be the closing price for any and all (if
           applicable) days during such five (5) trading day period.

           B = the Exercise Price.

               3.2 PARTIAL EXERCISE. This Warrant may be exercised in part by
surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in Subsection
3.1 except that the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of
Common Stock called for on the face of this Warrant as shall be designated by
the Holder in the subscription at the end hereof by (b) the Purchase Price or by
use of the cashless exercise formula above. On any such partial exercise,
subject to the provisions of Section 2 hereof, the Company at its expense will
forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant or
Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Holder calling in the aggregate on
the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of
such shares designated by the Holder in the subscription at the end hereof.

               3.3 COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The Company will, at the time of the
exercise, exchange or transfer of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder
acknowledge in writing its

                                        4

<PAGE>

continuing obligation to afford to the Holder any rights to which the Holder
shall continue to be entitled after such exercise or exchange in accordance with
the provisions of this Warrant; provided that, if the Holder of this Warrant
shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the
continuing obligation of the Company to afford to the Holder any such rights.

         4. DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC., ON EXERCISE. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any
event within ten business (10) days thereafter, the Company at its expense
(including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be
issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, a certificate or certificates
for the number of fully paid and nonassessable Shares to which the Holder shall
be entitled on such exercise. No fractional Share or scrip representing a
fraction of a Share will be issued on exercise, but the number of Shares
issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole Share.

               4.1 The Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, notwithstanding
that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that
certificates representing such shares of Common Stock shall not then be actually
delivered to the Holder.

               4.2 LISTING. When and if the Shares may be sold under Rule 144,
promulgated under the Securities Act, or are included in an effective
registration statement, the Company shall secure the listing of such shares of
Common Stock upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation
system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to
official notice of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant) to the extent that
such listing is necessary to trade the Shares on the national securities
exchange or automated quotation system upon which the shares of Common Stock are
then listed. The Company shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common
Stock shall so be listed, such listing of all Shares.

         5. ADJUSTMENT FOR REORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC.

               5.1 MERGER, ETC. If 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 within twenty-four (24) months from the date of such transfer (any such
transaction being hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "Reorganization") then,
in each such case, the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as
provided in Section 3 at any time after the consummation or effective date of
such Reorganization (the "Effective Date"), shall receive, in lieu of the Shares
issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the
stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which the Holder
would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such
dissolution, as the case may be, if the Holder had so exercised this Warrant,
immediately prior thereto; provided that the successor corporation in any such
Reorganization described in clause (b) or (c) above where the Company will not
be the surviving entity (the "Acquiring Company") has agreed prior to such
Reorganization in a writing satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder
that this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the

                                        5

<PAGE>

terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable on exercise after the consummation of such Reorganization,
and shall be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities
(including, in the case of any transfer of properties or assets referred to
above, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets
of the Company).

         If the Acquiring Company has not so agreed to continue this Warrant,
then the Company shall give 30 days' prior written notice to the Holder of this
Warrant of such Reorganization, during which 30-day period (the "Notice Period")
the Holder at its option and upon written notice to the Company shall be able to
(i) exercise this Warrant or any part thereof at an exercise price (the
"Discounted Exercise Price") equal to the then prevailing purchase price
hereunder discounted at the Discount Rate (as used herein the "Discount Rate"
shall mean the then prevailing interest rate on U.S. Treasury Notes issued on
(or immediately prior to) the date of such 30-day notice and maturing on
December 21, 2005 (or immediately prior thereto), such rate to be compounded
annually through December 21, 2005, and in no event to be less than 10%
annually); or (ii) on the Effective Date, the Holder of this Warrant shall be
paid an amount (the "Merger Profit Amount") equal to the difference between the
fair market value per share of Common Stock of the Company being purchased by
the Acquiring Company in the Reorganization and the Discounted Exercise Price
described in clause (i) above and the Warrant shall simultaneously expire. The
Merger Profit Amount shall be payable in the same form as the common
stockholders of the Company shall be paid by the Acquiring Company for their
shares of common stock of the Company. The fair market value of any noncash
property received from the Acquiring Company upon the Reorganization shall be
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, as approved
by the Company's stockholders.

               5.2 DISSOLUTION. Except as otherwise expressly provided in
Subsection 5.1, 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 this Warrant after the effective date of such
dissolution pursuant to this Section 6 to a bank or trust company having its
principal office in New York, New York, as trustee for the Holder of this
Warrant.

               5.3 CONTINUATION OF TERMS. Except as otherwise expressly provided
in Subsection 5.1, upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer
(and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 5, this
Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be
applicable to the shares of stock and 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 such
stock or 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 in Section 5.1.

                                        6

<PAGE>

         6. NO IMPAIRMENT. The Company will not, by amendment of its certificate
of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the
carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be
necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holders of this
Warrant against dilution or other impairment. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Company (a) will not increase the par value of any shares of
stock receivable on the exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable
therefor on such exercise and (b) will at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized capital stock, solely for the purpose of issue upon
exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, such number of shares of Common
Stock as shall then be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full and shall
take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that all shares
of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued and
fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with
respect to the issue thereof.

         7. NO DILUTION.

               (a) In the event the Company shall pay a share dividend or other
distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, or the issued shares of Common
Stock shall be subdivided, combined or consolidated, by reclassification or
otherwise, into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior (and each Purchase Price in effect
subsequent) to such subdivision or combination shall, concurrently with the
effectiveness of such subdivision, combination or consolidation, be
proportionately adjusted. In the case of a share dividend or other distribution
payable in shares of Common Stock such adjustment shall occur as follows: the
Purchase Price that is then in effect (and in effect at any time thereafter)
shall be decreased or increased, as the case may be, as of the time of such
issuance, or in the event a record date is fixed, as of the close of business on
such record date, by multiplying or dividing the Purchase Price, as the case may
be, then (and therefore) in effect by a fraction (1) the numerator of which is
the total number of shares of issued Common Stock immediately prior to the time
of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, as the case may
be, and (2) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of issued
Common Stock immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of
business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that, if such
record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution
is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Purchase Price shall be
recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and
thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted to reflect he actual payment of
such dividend or distribution.

               (b) In the event that the Company shall, after December 21, 2000,
pay a dividend or make a distribution payable otherwise than in shares of Common
Stock, the Company shall pay to the Holder of this Warrant, on the dividend or
distribution payment date, the cash, stock or other securities and other
property which the Holder would have received if such Holder had exercised

                                        7

<PAGE>

this Warrant in full to purchase Common Stock and had been the record holder of
such Common Stock on the date on which a record is taken for the purpose of such
dividend or distribution.

               (c) In the event that the Company shall, after December 21, 2000,
issue or sell any shares of its Common Stock, other than issuances or sales in
connection with the Company's stock option incentive plan in effect on the date
hereof, for a consideration per share less than the closing market price on that
date of agreement to such issuance or sale, then, forthwith upon such issue or
sale, the Purchase Price shall be reduced to the price, calculated to the
nearest cent, determined as provided in clause (i) below:

                         (i) by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale by a fraction, the numerator
of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the closing
market price immediately prior to such issue or sale and (B) the consideration
received by the Company upon such issue or sale, and the denominator of which
shall be the product of (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such issue or sale and (y) the closing market
price immediately prior to such issue or sale.

               (d) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment of the Purchase Price
pursuant to this Section 7, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant shall simultaneously be adjusted by multiplying (i) the number of Shares
issuable immediately prior to such adjustment by (ii) the Purchase Price in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment, and dividing the product so
obtained by the Purchase Price as so adjusted, and the Company shall prepare a
certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon
which such adjustment is based.

               (e) The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any
change in the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 7. However, the Company
may at any time in its sole discretion (which shall be conclusive) make any
change in the form of this Warrant that it may deem appropriate and that does
not affect the substance thereof. Any Warrant thereafter issued or
countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant or
otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

               (f) In case at any time after the date of this Warrant:

                         (i) The Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution) on its shares of Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out
of its earned surplus; or

                         (ii) The Company shall authorize any reclassification
of the shares of its Common Stock, or any consolidation or merger to which it is
a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Company is required,
or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets or all or
substantially all of its issued and outstanding stock; or

                                        8

<PAGE>

                         (iii) Events shall have occurred resulting in the
voluntary and involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then the Company shall cause notice to be sent to the Holder at least twenty
(20) days prior (or ten (10) day prior in any case specified in clause (i)
above, or on the date of any case specified in clause (iii) above) to the
applicable record date hereinafter specified, stating (1) the date on which a
record is to be taken or the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights,
or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of shares
of Common Stock of record will be entitled to such dividend, distribution or
rights are to be determined or (2) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, initial public offering, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of
which it is expected that holders of shares of Common Stock or record shall be
entitled to exchange their shares for securities or other property deliverable
upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale transfer, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up. Failure to give any such notice of any defect therein
shall not affect the validity of the proceedings referred to in clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii) above.

         8. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. The Company shall provide written notice to
Holder of any "Ineffective Period," as defined below, within two days of the
commencement of any Ineffective Period. "Ineffective Period" shall mean any
period of time after the effective date of a registration statement covering
this Warrant or the Shares during the term hereof that such registration
statement or any supplemental or amended registration statement becomes
ineffective or unavailable for use for the sale or resale, as applicable, of any
or all of the Shares for any reason (or in the event the prospectus is not
current and deliverable).

         9. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. 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
