                                                                   -------------

                             STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
                             ----------------------

         This STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT ("Warrant") is issued this 29th day of
November, 1999, by DYNAGEN, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), to
FINOVA MEZZANINE CAPITAL INC. f/k/a SIRROM CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Tennessee
corporation (FINOVA MEZZANINE CAPITAL INC. and any subsequent assignee or
transferee hereof are hereinafter referred to collectively as "Holder" or
"Holders").
                                   AGREEMENT:

         1. ISSUANCE OF WARRANT; TERM. In conjunction with that Amendment and
Agreement (the "Agreement") dated November 29, 1999, and for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
Company hereby grants to Holder the right to purchase 266,667 shares of the
Company's common stock (the "Common Stock"). The shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant are hereinafter referred to as the "Shares." This
Warrant shall be exercisable at any time and from time to time from the date
hereof until November 29, 2002 (the "Expiration Date").

         2. EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price (the "Exercise Price") per share
for which all or any of the Shares may be purchased pursuant to the terms of
this Warrant shall be $.38 per share.

         3. EXERCISE. This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof (but
only on the conditions hereinafter set forth) in whole or in part, upon delivery
of written notice of intent to exercise to the Company in the manner at the
address of the Company set forth in Section 10 hereof, together with this
Warrant and payment to the Company of the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares
so purchased. The Exercise Price shall be payable, at the option of the Holder,
(i) by certified or bank check; (ii) by the surrender of that Secured Promissory
Note in the name of the Holder dated June 18, 1997 or portion thereof having an
outstanding principal balance equal to the aggregate Exercise Price; or (iii) by
the surrender of a portion of this Warrant where the Shares subject to the
portion of this Warrant that is surrendered have a fair market value equal to
the aggregate Exercise Price. In the absence of an established public market for
the Common Stock, fair market value shall be established by the Company's board
of directors in a commercially reasonable manner. Upon exercise of this Warrant
as aforesaid, the Company shall as promptly as practicable, and in any event
within fifteen (15) days thereafter, execute and deliver to the Holder of this
Warrant a certificate or certificates for the total number of whole Shares for
which this Warrant is being exercised in such names and denominations as are
requested by such Holder. If this Warrant shall be exercised with respect to
less than all of the Shares, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a new
Warrant covering the number of Shares in respect of which this Warrant shall not
have been exercised, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical
to this Warrant. The Company covenants and agrees that it will pay when due any
and all state and federal issue taxes which may be payable in respect of the
issuance of this Warrant or the issuance of any Shares upon exercise of this
Warrant.

         4. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. The above provisions are subject to the
following:

             (a) Neither this Warrant nor the Shares have been registered under
         the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), or any state
         securities laws ("Blue Sky Laws"). This Warrant has been acquired for
         investment purposes and not with a view to distribution or resale and
         may not be sold or otherwise transferred without (i) an effective
         registration statement for such Warrant under the Securities Act and
         such applicable Blue Sky Laws, or (ii) an opinion of counsel, which
         opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company and
         its counsel, that registration is not required under the Securities Act
         or under any applicable Blue Sky Laws (the Company hereby acknowledges
         that Boult, Cummings, Conners & Berry, PLC is acceptable counsel).
         Transfer of the Shares shall be restricted in the same manner and to
         the same extent as the Warrant and the certificates representing such
         Shares shall bear substantially the following legend:
<PAGE>

              THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE
              HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
              AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW
              AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED UNTIL (I) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT
              UNDER THE ACT AND SUCH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS SHALL
              HAVE BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH REGARD THERETO, OR (II) IN THE
              OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, REGISTRATION
              UNDER SUCH SECURITIES ACTS AND SUCH APPLICABLE STATE
              SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH
              PROPOSED TRANSFER.

         The Holder hereof and the Company agree to execute such other documents
         and instruments as counsel for the Company reasonably deems necessary
         to effect the compliance of the issuance of this Warrant and any shares
         of Common Stock issued upon exercise hereof with applicable federal and
         state securities laws.

             (b) The Company covenants and agrees that all Shares which may be
         issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance and payment
         therefor, be legally and validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and
         nonassessable, free from all taxes, liens, charges and preemptive
         rights, if any, with respect thereto or to the issuance thereof. The
         Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issuance upon
         the exercise of this Warrant such number of authorized but unissued
         shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in
         full of this Warrant.

         5. TRANSFER OF WARRANT. Subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof,
this Warrant may be transferred, in whole or in part, to any person or business
entity, by presentation of the Warrant to the Company with written instructions
for such transfer. Upon such presentation for transfer, the Company shall
promptly execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the form hereof in the
name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such
instructions. The Company shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection
with the preparation, issuance and delivery of Warrants under this Section 5.

         6. WARRANT HOLDER NOT SHAREHOLDER. Except as otherwise provided herein,
this Warrant does not confer upon the Holder, as such, any right whatsoever as a
shareholder of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company should
offer to all of the Company's shareholders the right to purchase any securities
of the Company, then all shares of Common Stock that are subject to this Warrant
shall be deemed to be outstanding and owned by the Holder and the Holder shall
be entitled to participate in such rights offering.

         7. OBSERVATION RIGHTS. The Holder of this Warrant shall receive notice
of and be entitled to attend or may send a representative to attend all meetings
of the Company's Board of Directors in a non-voting observation capacity and
shall receive a copy of all correspondence and information delivered to the
Company's Board of Directors, from the date hereof until such time as the
indebtedness evidenced by the Note has been paid in full.

         8. ADJUSTMENT UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.

             (a) If all or any portion of this Warrant shall be exercised
         subsequent to any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
         combination of shares of the Company, or other similar event, occurring
         after the date hereof, then the Holder exercising this Warrant shall
         receive, for the aggregate Exercise Price, the aggregate number and
         class of shares which such Holder would have received if this Warrant
         had been exercised immediately prior to such stock split, stock
         dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, or other similar
         event. If any adjustment under this Section 8(a), would create a
         fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional
         share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and
         the number of shares subject to this Warrant shall be the next higher
         number of shares, rounding all fractions upward. Whenever there shall
         be an adjustment pursuant to this Section 8(a), the Company shall
         forthwith notify the Holder or Holders of this Warrant of such
         adjustment, setting forth in
<PAGE>

         reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the
         method by which such adjustment was calculated.

             (b) If all or any portion of this Warrant shall be exercised
         subsequent to any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares,
         separation, reorganization or liquidation of the Company, or other
         similar event, occurring after the date hereof, as a result of which
         shares of Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different
         number of shares of the same or another class or classes of securities
         of the Company or another entity, or the holders of Common Stock are
         entitled to receive cash or other property, then the Holder exercising
         this Warrant shall receive, for the aggregate Exercise Price, the
         aggregate number and class of shares, cash or other property which such
         Holder would have received if this Warrant had been exercised
         immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares,
         separation, reorganization or liquidation, or other similar event. If
         any adjustment under this Section 8(b) would create a fractional share
         of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common
         Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of
         shares subject to this Warrant shall be the next higher number of
         shares, rounding all fractions upward. Whenever there shall be an
         adjustment pursuant to this Section 8(b), the Company shall forthwith
         notify the Holder or Holders of this Warrant of such adjustment,
         setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment
         and the method by which such adjustment was calculated.

         8.  CERTAIN NOTICES.  In case at any time the Company shall propose to:

             (a) declare any cash dividend upon its Common Stock;

             (b) declare any dividend upon its Common Stock payable in stock or
         make any special dividend or other distribution to the holders of its
         Common Stock;

             (c) offer for subscription to the holders of any of its Common
         Stock any additional shares of stock in any class or other rights;

             (d) reorganize, or reclassify the capital stock of the Company, or
         consolidate, merge or otherwise combine with, or sell of all or
         substantially all of its assets to, another corporation;

             (e) voluntarily or involuntarily dissolve, liquidate or wind up of
         the affairs of the Company; or

             (f) redeem or purchase any shares of its capital stock or
         securities convertible into its capital stock;

         then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give to the
         Holder of the Warrant, by certified or registered mail, (i) at least
         twenty (20) days' prior written notice of the date on which the books
         of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such
         dividend, distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights
         to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification,
         consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up,
         and (ii) in the case of such reorganization, reclassification,
         consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at
         least twenty (20) days' prior written notice of the date when the same
         shall take place. Any notice required by clause (i) shall also specify,
         in the case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights,
         the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled
         thereto, and any notice required by clause (ii) shall specify the date
         on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange
         their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon
         such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale,
         dissolution, liquidation or winding up, as the case may be.

CAPITAL CORPORATION ("FMC"), for itself and in its capacity as Collateral Agent
pursuant to that Collateral Agent Agreement dated June 18, 1997, (the "Agency
Agreement") by and between FMC and Argosy Investment Partners, L.P., a
Pennsylvania limited partnership ("Argosy") (FMC and Argosy individually and
collectively referred to herein as "Creditor").

                                    RECITALS:

1. Pursuant to a Loan Agreement dated as of June 18, 1997, by and between
DynaGen, Inc. a Delaware corporation and sole shareholder of Guarantor
("Debtor"), and Creditor (the "Loan Agreement"), Creditor has made loans to
Debtor in the aggregate initial principal amount of $3,000,000 (the "Loans").
The Loans are evidenced by a Secured Promissory Note dated June 18, 1997, in the
original principal amount of $2,000,000 made and executed by Debtor, payable to
the order of FMC ("FMC Note") and a Secured Promissory Note dated June 18, 1997,
in the original principal amount of $1,000,000 made and executed by Debtor,
payable to the order of Argosy ("Argosy Note") (the FMC Note and the Argosy Note
are collectively herein referred to, together with any extensions,
modifications, renewals and/or replacements thereof, including the "Amendment,"
as defined below, as the "Note").

1. Debtor and Creditor desire to enter into that Amendment and Agreement of even
date herewith (the "Amendment") with respect to the Loan and the Loan Agreement.

2. It is a condition of Creditor's execution of the Amendment that Guarantor
execute and deliver this Guaranty to Creditor.

3. Guarantor desires to execute and deliver this Guaranty to Creditor in order
to induce Creditor to enter into the Amendment, which will be to the direct
interest, advantage and benefit of Guarantor.

                                   AGREEMENTS:

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged by Guarantor, and to induce Creditor to enter into the Amendment,
Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

1. Gantor hereby guarantees to Creditor the full and prompt payment and
performance of (a) the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, principal and any and
all interest accrued or to accrue thereon and (b) the obligations of Debtor to
Creditor pursuant to the Note, the Loan Agreement and any and all other
instruments, documents and/or agreements now or hereafter further evidencing,
securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced by the Note
(collectively, the "Guaranteed Obligations"). Guarantor hereby agrees that if
the Guaranteed Obligations are not timely paid and/or performed, as the case may
be, in accordance with the terms thereof, Guarantor immediately will pay and/or
perform such Guaranteed Obligations. If for any reason any payment or obligation
in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be determined at any time to be a
voidable preference or otherwise shall be set aside or required to be returned
or repaid, this Guaranty nevertheless shall remain in full force and effect and
shall be fully enforceable against Guarantor for the payment or obligation set
aside, returned or repaid, as well as any other Guaranteed Obligations still
outstanding, notwithstanding the fact that this Guaranty may have been canceled,
released and/or returned to Guarantor by Creditor. This Guaranty is irrevocable.
<PAGE>

2. In addition to the obligations of Guarantor to Creditor pursuant to Paragraph
1 hereof, Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including
without limitation attorney's fees) reasonably incurred by Creditor in
endeavoring to collect and/or enforce the obligations of Guarantor under this
Guaranty.

3. Guarantor hereby waives notice of any breach or default by Debtor, and hereby
further waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor and protest with respect
to any instrument now or hereafter evidencing any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

4. Guarantor's guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations is absolute and
unconditional. The validity of this Guaranty and Guarantor's absolute obligation
to pay hereunder shall not be impaired by any event whatsoever, including, but
not limited to, the financial decline of Debtor; the filing by or against Debtor
of a proceeding under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code (as used in this
Guaranty, "Debtor" shall include Debtor's reorganizing or liquidating estate in
any bankruptcy proceeding); the merger, consolidation, dissolution, cessation of
business or liquidation of Debtor; the failure of any other party to guarantee
the Guaranteed Obligations or to provide collateral therefor; Creditor's
compromise or settlement with or without release of Debtor or any other party
liable for the Guaranteed Obligations; Creditor's failure to perfect any
security interest in any property now or hereafter intended to secure the
Guaranteed Obligations; Creditor's release of any collateral for the Guaranteed
Obligations; Creditor's failure to file suit against Debtor (regardless of
whether Debtor is becoming insolvent, is believed to be about to leave the
state, or any other circumstance); Creditor's failure to give Guarantor notice
of default by Debtor; the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations against
Debtor, due to bankruptcy discharge, counterclaim or for any other reason;
Creditor's acceleration of the Guaranteed Obligations at any time; the
extension, modification or renewal of the Guaranteed Obligations, with or
without notice to Guarantor; Creditor's failure to undertake or exercise
diligence in collection efforts against any party or property; the termination
of any relationship of Guarantor with Debtor, including, but not limited to, any
relationship of employment, ownership or commerce; Debtor's change of name or
use of any name other than the name used to identify Debtor in this Guaranty;
Debtor's use of the credit extended by Creditor for any purpose whatsoever; or
any other event that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge
of, or defense available to, a guarantor or surety. All Guaranteed Obligations
arising after the execution hereof shall be deemed incurred by Creditor in
reliance upon the continued operation of this Guaranty and shall constitute
additional consideration for Guarantor's execution of this Guaranty. Guarantor
agrees that this Guaranty shall be valid and binding upon Guarantor upon the
delivery of this executed Guaranty to Creditor by any party whomsoever.

5. Creditor may, in its sole discretion, with or without consideration and with
no impairment of Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty, release any
collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or release any party liable
therefor. Guarantor hereby waives the defenses of impairment of collateral and
impairment of recourse and any requirement of diligence on Creditor's part in
collecting the Guaranteed Obligations.

6. Should the liability of Guarantor hereunder for the entire amount of the
Guaranteed Obligations be subject to avoidance or limitation, notwithstanding
the contrary agreement and intention of Guarantor and Creditor, under any state
or federal fraudulent transfer laws, laws regarding corporate distributions or
other law, then the liability of Guarantor for the Guaranteed Obligations shall
be limited to the maximum amount for which Guarantor may be liable without legal
impairment.

7. Guarantor warrants to Creditor that Guarantor is not insolvent and that
Guarantor's execution hereof does not render Guarantor insolvent for the purpose
of state or federal fraudulent transfer laws or other avoidance laws, laws
regarding corporate distributions or any other law.

8. Guarantor acknowledges and represents that, in connection with Guarantor's
decision to enter into this Guaranty, Guarantor has not relied upon any
financial projection, budget, assessment or other analysis by Creditor or upon
any representation by Creditor as to the risks, benefits or prospects of
Debtor's business activities or present or future capital needs incidental
thereto or the present or future provisions of documents with Debtor that
evidence the Guaranteed Obligations, all such considerations having been
examined fully and independently by Guarantor. Guarantor represents that
Guarantor has made such arrangements as Guarantor desires for the obtaining of
information regarding Debtor, and agrees that Creditor is not obligated to
provide Guarantor with any present or ongoing information about the financial
condition, operations or prospects of Debtor.
<PAGE>

9. If proceedings are instituted by Debtor under any state insolvency law or
under any federal bankruptcy law, or if such proceedings are instituted against
Debtor and are not dismissed within forty-five (45) days, Creditor may, at its
option, without notice and notwithstanding any limitation on Creditor's ability
to use such proceedings as the basis of a default or acceleration against
Debtor, declare all the Guaranteed Obligations presently due and payable by
Guarantor. The term "Debtor," as used in this Guaranty, includes Debtor's estate
in any bankruptcy, reorganization or other debtor relief proceeding.

10. Guarantor's obligation under this Guaranty is independent of any other
obligations among Creditor, Debtor and Guarantor. No setoff, counterclaim,
reduction or diminution of any obligation, or defense of any kind or nature that
Guarantor or Debtor has or may have against Creditor, shall be effective against
Creditor in the enforcement of this Guaranty.

11. Guarantor acknowledges that the terms and conditions of the extension of
credit from Creditor to Debtor are set forth entirely in agreements between
Creditor and Debtor. It shall not be a defense to Guarantor's liability
hereunder if Creditor fails to extend credit to Debtor or accelerates the
Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
documents between Creditor and Debtor from time to time.

12. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the statute of limitation applicable
to this Guaranty shall begin to run only upon Creditor's accrual of a cause of
action against Guarantor hereunder caused by Guarantor's refusal to honor a
demand for performance hereunder made by Creditor in writing; provided, however,
if, subsequent to the demand upon Guarantor, Creditor reaches an agreement with
Debtor on any terms causing Creditor to forbear in the enforcement of its demand
upon Guarantor, the statute of limitation shall be reinstated for its full
duration until Creditor subsequently again makes written demand upon Guarantor.

13. Until all of the covenants, terms and conditions of Debtor with respect to
the Guaranteed Obligations are fully paid, performed, kept and/or observed,
Guarantor: (a) shall have no rights of reimbursement or subrogation against
Debtor of any of its property by reason of any payment or acts of performance by
Guarantor in compliance with the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, (b) waives
any right to enforce any remedy that Guarantor now or hereafter shall have
against Debtor by reason of any one or more payments or acts of performance in
compliance with the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, and subordinates any
liability or indebtedness of Debtor now or hereafter held by Guarantor to the
obligations of Debtor to Creditor under the Guaranteed Obligations.

14. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. The
liability of Guarantor hereunder shall be direct and immediate and not
conditional or contingent upon the pursuit of any remedies against Debtor or any
other person, not against any collateral available to Creditor. Guarantor hereby
waives any right to require that an action be brought against Debtor or any
other person or to require that resort be had to any collateral in favor of
Creditor prior to discharging its obligations hereunder. Guarantor further
waives any right of Guarantor to require that an action be brought against
Debtor under the provisions of Title 47, Chapter 12, Tennessee Code Annotated,
as the same may be amended from time to time.

15. Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that all payments and credits received
from Debtor or Guarantor or realized from any collateral may be applied by
Creditor to the Guaranteed Obligations in such priority as Creditor in its sole
judgment shall see fit.

16. This Guaranty shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws
of the State of Tennessee applicable to contracts to be performed within said
state. No amendment or modification hereby shall be effective unless evidenced
by a writing signed by Guarantor and Creditor. When used herein, the singular
shall include the plural, and vice versa, and the use of any gender shall
include all other genders, as appropriate.

17. Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by Creditors.

18. CREDITOR AND GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTIONS,
PROCEEDINGS, CLAIMS OR COUNTER-CLAIMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT, AT LAW OR IN
EQUITY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

delivery of and performance under this Guaranty and all related documents are

of Guarantor is duly authorized to bind Guarantor by his or her signature.

20. Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default

demand, copies of Guarantor's tax returns and additional financial statements in
form and substance acceptable to Creditor in the same manner and form as
required of Debtor in the Loan Agreement.

States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee and of all Tennessee
state courts sitting in Davidson County, Tennessee, for the purpose of any
litigation to which Creditor may be a party and which concerns this Guaranty or
the Secured Indebtedness. It is further agreed that venue for any such action
shall lie exclusively with courts sitting in Davidson County, Tennessee, unless
Creditor, in its discretion, elects the venue of another appropriate
jurisdiction.

25. Nothing contained herein or in any related document shall be deemed to
render Creditor a partner of Guarantor for any purpose. This Guaranty has been
executed for the sole benefit of Creditor, and no third party is authorized to
rely upon Creditor's rights hereunder or to rely upon an assumption that
Creditor has or will exercise its rights under this Guaranty or under any
