                           CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS

                                       OF

                             NUMATICS, INCORPORATED

          Pursuant to Section 450.1302 of the Michigan Business Corporation Act,
NUMATICS, INCORPORATED, a Michigan corporation (the "Corporation"), certifies as
follows:

          FIRST: Under the authority contained in Article IV of the Restated
Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, the Board of Directors of the
Corporation has classified an aggregate of 75,000 shares of the authorized but
unissued shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation into a series which shall
be designated Series A Preferred Stock.

          SECOND: The following resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors
on December __, 2002, and such resolution has not been modified and is in full
force and effect on the date hereof:

          RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors hereby creates, from the
authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation, a series
of 75,000 shares of preferred stock designated as Series A Preferred Stock,
$0.01 par value (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), and hereby fixes the powers,
designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special
rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of the
shares of such series, as follows:

          Section 1. Series A Preferred Stock Dividends.

          1.1  Primary Dividends. The holders of each outstanding share of
Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at
the rate of four percent (4%) (subject to appropriate adjustments in the event
of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar
recapitalization affecting such shares) per share per annum which shall accrue
on each share from the date of initial issuance of such share and be payable on
January 31 each year (a "Preferred Dividend Date"), commencing January 31, 2004.
Each such dividend shall be paid in additional shares of Series A Preferred
Stock. Dividends shall be paid on the basis that each share of Series A
Preferred Stock has a value of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00). The number of
additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock that shall be issued to each
holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be the total number of shares of Series
A Preferred Stock then

<PAGE>

held by such holder (including for the avoidance of doubt any shares of Series A
Preferred Stock previously issued to such holder as a dividend hereunder)
multiplied by four percent (4%). Each dividend paid in additional shares of
Series A Preferred Stock shall be mailed to the holders of record of the Series
A Preferred Stock as their names and addresses appear on the share register of
the Corporation. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall receive written
notification from the Corporation, which will specify the number of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock paid as a dividend and the recipient's aggregate
holdings of Series A Preferred Stock as of the dividend payment date and after
giving effect to the dividend. In the event that the Corporation redeems a share
of Series A Preferred Stock on a date other than a Preferred Dividend Date, on
the date of such redemption the Corporation shall pay prorated dividends (in
additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock) on such shares of Series A
Preferred Stock accrued from the preceding Preferred Dividend Date to the date
of redemption. In such case, such prorated dividends shall be calculated by
multiplying the annual dividend that would have been payable to the holder of
such share of Series A Preferred Stock by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the number of days elapsed since the preceding Preferred Dividend Date
and the denominator of which shall be three hundred and sixty-five (365) days.

          1.2  Additional Dividends. When, as and if declared by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation, the Corporation shall pay to the holders of record
of the Series A Preferred Stock, out of the assets of the Corporation available
for the payment of dividends under the State of Michigan Business Corporation
Act and in addition to the dividends contemplated by Section 1.1 above,
dividends at the times and in the amounts determined by the Board of Directors
of the Corporation in its discretion.

          1.3  Payment of Additional Dividends. Dividends payable under Section
1.2 above shall be paid by mailing the Corporation's good check in the proper
amount to each holder of record of Series A Preferred Stock at such holder's
address as it appears on the Corporation's stock register at least five days
prior to the due date of each dividend or otherwise transferring funds so as to
be received by such holder on the due date of such dividend.

          1.4  Preferences and Priorities. (a) So long as any Series A Preferred
Stock shall remain Outstanding, no Common Stock shall be acquired or redeemed by
the Corporation, except (i) shares of Common Stock purchased from officers,
directors and employees of the Corporation (other than John H. Welker) upon
termination of employment (other than voluntary termination) pursuant to
employee stock or stock option agreements providing for such repurchases,
provided that the Corporation shall be permitted to acquire or redeem shares of
Common Stock owned or held by Robert P. Robeson or David K. Dodds only upon his
death or disability, and (ii) other shares of Common Stock repurchased from
employees of the Corporation (other than John H. Welker, Robert P. Robeson or
David K. Dodds) pursuant to employee stock option agreements, not to exceed
$600,000 in the aggregate.

                                       2

<PAGE>

          (b)  For purposes of this Section 1.4, conversion of a convertible
security or exchange of an exchangeable security by the holder thereof shall not
be deemed an acquisition or redemption of the security so converted.

          Section 2. Liquidation Preferences.

          Upon any liquidation (complete or partial), dissolution or winding up
of the Corporation, or any similar distribution of its assets to its
stockholders which results in a return of capital, whether voluntary or
involuntary, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled,
before any distribution or payment is made upon the Common Stock, to be paid out
of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders
(whether from capital, surplus or earnings) a per share amount in cash equal to
the sum of (i) the Liquidation Value of the Series A Preferred Stock plus (ii)
to the extent not already included in the Liquidation Value of the Series A
Preferred Stock, a further amount per share equal to dividends, if any, then
declared and unpaid on account of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Preference
Amount"). If, upon any liquidation (complete or partial), the assets available
for distribution among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be
insufficient to permit payment to such holders of the full Preference Amount,
then such assets shall first be distributed ratably among the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock based on the number of shares thereof so held. After
the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have been paid in full the
amounts to which they shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 2, the
remaining assets of the Corporation shall be distributed in like amounts per
share to the holders of record of the Corporation's Common Stock, and the
holders of record of the Corporation's Common Stock shall not be entitled to any
further payment. Written notice of such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or
other distribution of assets, stating a payment date, the amount of the payment
and the place where the amounts distributable shall be payable, shall be mailed
by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, not less than 30 days
prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of any share of
Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock entitled thereto at the address for
such record holder shown on the Corporation's records. Neither the consolidation
or merger of the Corporation into or with any other corporation or corporations,
nor the sale or transfer by the Corporation of all or any part of its assets,
nor the reduction of the capital stock of the Corporation, shall be deemed to be
a liquidation, dissolution, winding up or similar distribution of the
Corporation within the meaning of any of the provisions of this Section 2,
provided that such transaction does not effect a return of capital to the
Corporation's stockholders.

          Section 3. Redemptions of Series A Preferred Stock.

          3.1  Redemption Price. For each share of Series A Preferred Stock
which is to be redeemed by the Corporation at any time and for any reason in a
redemption pursuant to this Section 3, the Corporation shall be obligated on the
Redemption Date, regardless of whether the Corporation shall be able or legally
permitted to make such payment on the Redemption Date, to pay to the holder
thereof (upon surrender by such holder at the Corporation's principal office of
the certificate representing such share of Series A Preferred Stock duly
endorsed in blank or accompanied by an appropriate form of assignment) the
Redemption Price for such share of Series A Preferred Stock, payable

                                       3

<PAGE>

in cash; provided that actual payment may be suspended until such payment can be
made without contravening applicable law.

          3.2  Redeemed or Otherwise Acquired Shares Not to be Reissued. Any
shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 3 or
otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall not be reissued, sold or transferred
by the Corporation and shall be retired.

          3.3  Required Redemption of Series A Preferred Stock on Corporate
Change. In the event any Corporate Change is to occur, any holder of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock may require the Corporation to redeem all or any
portion of the Series A Preferred Stock owned by such holder immediately prior
to the consummation of such Corporate Change. Written notice of any impending
Corporate Change, and the substance and intended date of consummation thereof,
shall be mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, not
more than sixty (60) nor less than twenty-five (25) days prior to the date of
consummation thereof, to each record holder of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock at the address for such record holder shown on the Corporation's records.
Each such holder shall have twenty (20) days from the date of receipt of such
notice to request (by written notice mailed to the Corporation) redemption of
all or any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock owned by such holder.
Immediately prior to the consummation of such Corporate Change, the Corporation
shall redeem all Series A Preferred Stock as to which requests under this
Section 3.3 have been made.

          3.4  Mandatory Redemptions of Series A Preferred Stock. All
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed, at the
Redemption Price, upon the earlier to occur of (a) April 2, 2008, or (b) the
consummation by the Company of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of
Common Stock.

          3.5  Optional Redemptions of Series A Preferred Stock. The Corporation
may, at its option, at any time and from time to time, redeem all or any part of
the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then Outstanding, at the Redemption
Price.

          3.6  Redemptions from Certain Funds. (a) If on any Redemption Date the
funds of the Corporation legally available for the redemption of the Series A
Preferred Stock are insufficient to redeem the entire number of shares required
under Section 3.3 or Section 3.4 of this Certificate of Designations to be
redeemed on such date or at such time, such aggregate funds shall be used, to
the extent thereof, to redeem the maximum possible number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, pro rata based upon the number of such shares required to be
redeemed from the holders thereof, until all such shares required to be redeemed
are redeemed. Thereafter, any additional such funds which become available shall
immediately be so used by the Corporation to redeem the balance of the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock which the Corporation has become obligated to redeem
but which it has not redeemed, or, in the event any Person other than the
Corporation is the surviving or resulting corporation in any Corporate Change,
such Person shall, at the consummation of such Corporate Change, redeem such
balance of shares (and the Corporation shall so provide in its agreements with
such Person relating to such Corporate Change).

                                       4

<PAGE>

          (b)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3, the
Corporation shall not pay or set apart any amount for the redemption of any
Series A Preferred Stock in excess of amounts legally available for the
redemption of Preferred Stock under the Michigan Business Corporation Act.

          3.7  Notice of Redemption. Notice of any redemption of Series A
Preferred Stock (other than pursuant to Section 3.3), specifying the time and
place of redemption, the Redemption Price and the Section and paragraph pursuant
to which such redemption is being made, shall be mailed by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, to each holder of record of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed, at the address for such holder shown on
the Corporation's records, not more than sixty (60) nor less than twenty (20)
days prior to the date on which such redemption is to be made. The notice shall
also specify the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the
certificate numbers thereof which are to be redeemed. With respect to
redemptions made pursuant to Section 3.5 of this Certificate of Designations,
upon mailing any such notice of redemption the Corporation shall become
obligated to redeem at the time of redemption specified therein all shares of
Series A Preferred Stock therein specified. In case less than all the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new
certificate representing the unredeemed shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall
be issued to the holder thereof without cost to such holder.

          3.8  Rights After Redemption Date. No share of Series A Preferred
Stock which is redeemed shall be entitled to any dividends declared after its
Redemption Date, and on such Redemption Date, except as otherwise provided in
this Certificate of Designations or by law, all rights of the holder of such
share of Series A Preferred Stock as a stockholder of the Corporation, by reason
of the ownership of such share, shall cease, except the right to receive the
Redemption Price of such share upon presentation and surrender of the
certificate representing such share, and such share shall not after such
Redemption Date be deemed to be Outstanding.

          3.9  Other Redemptions. The Corporation shall neither redeem nor
otherwise acquire any shares of Series A Preferred Stock except (i) as expressly
authorized in this Certificate of Designations, or (ii) pursuant to any offer of
redemption made to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock of such class pro
rata according to the shares held by them.

          3.10 Deposit of Redemption Price. If on or before the Redemption Date,
the Corporation shall irrevocably deposit the full amount of the Redemption
Price thereof with a bank or trust company having an office in the City of New
York, designated in such notice of redemption, in trust for the benefit of the
holder of such share of Series A Preferred Stock, such share of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been redeemed on the date so specified,
whether or not the certificate for such share shall be surrendered for
redemption and canceled.

          Section 4. Voting Rights.

                                       5

          4.1 In General. The Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to
vote on any matters, except as expressly provided herein or required by law.

          4.2  Series A Preferred Directors. In the event that the Corporation
fails to redeem any shares of Series A Preferred Stock when required to do so
pursuant to Section 3 above, and irrespective of whether such failure shall have
come about voluntarily or involuntarily or shall be beyond the Corporation's
control or shall have come about pursuant to or in compliance with any judgment,
decree or order of any court or any statute or law, or any order, rule or
regulation of any administrative or governmental body, then the holders of the
then Outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a class, with
each share of the Series A Preferred Stock having one vote, shall be entitled to
elect, (a) at the next annual meeting of stockholders, (b) at a special meeting
of such holders of the Series A Preferred Stock called for such purpose, or (c)
by written consent signed by holders of a majority of the then Outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock and delivered to the Corporation, as
hereinafter set forth, such number of additional directors as will constitute a
majority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation. At any time after the
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have become entitled to elect such
additional members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the Secretary
of the Corporation may, and upon the written request of the holders of record of
twenty percent (20%) or more of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock then
Outstanding addressed to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the
Corporation, the Secretary shall, call a special meeting of the holders of the
Outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for the election of the
additional directors to be elected by such holders, to be held within ten (10)
days of the receipt of such request at the place and upon the notice provided by
law and in the By-laws for the holding of special meetings of stockholders. If
at any such meeting or any adjournment thereof, the holders of at least a
majority of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock then Outstanding and
entitled to vote thereon shall be present or represented by proxy, then the
holders of at least a majority of such shares so present or so represented at
such meeting shall have the power to increase the then authorized number of
directors of the Corporation and the holders of such shares shall be entitled to
elect the additional directors provided for herein.

          4.3  Special Meetings. The Secretary need not call any special meeting
of the holders of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section
4.2 if the annual meeting of stockholders is to convene within ten (10) days
after receipt by the Secretary of such request. If any such special meeting
required shall not be called in accordance herewith by the Secretary within two
(2) days after receipt of such request then the holders of record of the shares
of Series A Preferred Stock who made such request may designate in writing one
of their number to call such meeting at the place and upon the notice above
provided, and the person so designated shall, for that purpose, have access to
the stock books of the Corporation relating to the Series A Preferred Stock.

          4.4  Removal; Vacancies. The directors elected by the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically cease to serve as such whenever all
defaults with respect to redemptions of Series A Preferred Stock are cured or no
longer exist. Any such director may otherwise be removed only by the vote of the
holders of record of

                                       6

<PAGE>

a majority of shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to elect such director
at a meeting of the stockholders or of the holders of such shares called for
that purpose. In the case of removal of any such director, the vacancy may be
filled at the same meeting at which such removal was voted. A vacancy in the
directorships created pursuant to Section 4.2 above shall be filled until the
next meeting by the vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the
then Outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock originally entitled to elect
such director.

          Section 5. Registration of Transfer.

          The Corporation shall keep at its principal office (or such other
place as the Corporation reasonably designates) a register for the registration
of shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Upon the surrender of any certificate
representing Series A Preferred Stock at such place, the Corporation shall, at
the request of the registered holder of such certificate, execute and deliver
(at the Corporation's expense) a new certificate or certificates in exchange
therefor representing the aggregate number of shares represented by the
surrendered certificate, subject to the requirements of applicable securities
laws. Each such new certificate shall be registered in such name and shall
represent such number of shares as shall be requested by the holder of the
surrendered certificate, shall be substantially identical in form to the
surrendered certificate, and the holders of the shares represented by such new
certificate shall be entitled to receive all theretofore payable but unpaid
dividends on the shares represented by the surrendered certificate.

          Section 6. Replacement.

          Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation
(an affidavit of the registered holder shall be satisfactory) of the ownership
and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate evidencing one
or more shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and, in the case of any such
loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to
the Corporation (provided that if the registered holder is an institutional
investor its own agreement of indemnity, without bond, shall be satisfactory ),
or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender of such certificate, the
Corporation shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such
certificate a new certificate of like kind representing the number of shares
represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate, and the
shares represented by such new certificate shall be entitled, among other
things, to receive all theretofore payable but unpaid dividends on the shares
represented by the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.

          Section 7. Restrictions on Corporate Action.

          7.1  So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are
outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the affirmative vote of the
holders of record of two thirds (2/3) of the outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class:

          (a)  amend, alter or repeal any of the provisions of this Certificate
of Designations, nor shall it amend, alter or repeal any of the other provisions
of the

                                       7

Corporation's Restated Articles of Incorporation or the By-laws of the
Corporation in any manner which adversely affects the preferences and rights and
the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock
or the holders thereof;

          (b)  increase or decrease the number of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock which the Corporation is authorized to issue;

          (c)  issue additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock;

dividends, redemptions, or rights upon dissolution, liquidation, winding up or
similar distribution of the Corporation or distribution of assets to its
shareholders by way of return of capital, whether voluntary or involuntary;

          (e)  sell, lease, convey, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, or merge or
consolidate with another entity in any transaction in which the Corporation is
not the surviving entity, unless in any such event all outstanding shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock are redeemed for the full Redemption Price thereof;

          (f)  take any action with a view to the liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company; or

          (g)  declare or pay any dividend or other distribution upon any Common
Stock or other capital stock ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock.

          Section 8. Closing Books.

occur of (i) an Exit Event (as hereinafter defined), and (ii) April 2, 2008, to
and including December 31, 2010 (the "Final Exercise Date"), shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value, subject, however, to the
provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

       Certain terms used in this Warrant Certificate are defined in paragraph
6.

       THIS WARRANT CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT.
REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR A DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES THAT RELATE TO THE WARRANTS EVIDENCED HEREBY,
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY TO REPURCHASE WARRANTS AND
WARRANT SHARES UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

       The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder, and the
Warrant Purchase Price payable therefor, are subject to adjustment as
hereinafter set forth.

       The Warrants represented by this Certificate are subject to the following
provisions, terms and conditions:

<PAGE>

       1. (a) Exercise of Warrants. The rights represented by this Warrant
Certificate may be exercised by the holder hereof, in whole or in part, by
delivering to the office of the Company at Numatics, Incorporated, 1450 North
Milford Road, Highland, Michigan 48357 (or such other office or agency of the
Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the holder hereof),

              (i) this Warrant Certificate, together with a properly completed
       Subscription Form in the form attached hereto, and

              (ii) at the holder's option, either (A) a certified check or bank
       draft in the amount of the aggregate Warrant Purchase Price for the
       shares of Common Stock being purchased, (B) any promissory notes or debt
       securities of the Company that may have been issued to the holder hereof,
       so that amounts outstanding thereunder may be offset against the
       aggregate Warrant Purchase Price for the Shares of Common Stock being
       purchased, or (C) Common Stock (including Common Stock received or
       receivable upon such exercise of the Warrants), Warrants or other
       securities of the Company having a value equal to the aggregate Warrant
       Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock being purchased (a
       "Cashless Exercise"). For this purpose the value per Warrant at any time
       shall be the Fair Value Per Share of Common Stock minus the Warrant
       Purchase Price then in effect, the value per share of Common Stock shall
       be the Fair Value Per Share of Common Stock, and the value of other
       securities shall be as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of
       Directors and reflected in a formal resolution of such Board.

       The Company agrees that the shares so purchased shall be deemed to be
issued to the holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close
of business on the date on which this Warrant Certificate shall have been
delivered to the Company and payment made for such shares as aforesaid.
Certificates for the shares so purchased shall be delivered to the holder hereof
within a reasonable time, not exceeding five business days, after the rights
represented by this Warrant Certificate shall have been so exercised, and,
unless this Warrant Certificate has expired, a new Warrant Certificate
representing the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, with respect to which
this Warrant Certificate shall not then have been exercised, in all other
respects identical with this Warrant Certificate, shall also be issued and
delivered to the holder hereof within such time, or, at the request of such
holder, appropriate notation may be made on this Warrant Certificate and the
same returned to such holder.

       The Company acknowledges and agrees that all of the Warrants were
originally issued on or about January 31, 2003. Consequently, the Company
acknowledges and agrees that, if the Holder conducts a Cashless Exercise, the
period during which the Holder held this Warrant may, for purposes of Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act, be "tacked" to the period during which the
Holder holds the shares of Common Stock received upon such Cashless Exercise.

       (b) Transfer Restriction Legend. Each certificate for Warrant Shares
initially issued upon exercise of this Warrant Certificate, unless at the time
of exercise such Warrant Shares are registered under the Securities Act, shall
bear the following legend (and any additional legend required by any securities
exchange upon which such Warrant Shares may, at the time of such exercise, be
listed) on the face thereof:

                                       2

<PAGE>

       "The shares of stock represented hereby have not been registered pursuant
       to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Michigan Uniform
       Securities Act or any other state securities law. Neither these shares,
       nor any portion thereof or interest therein, may be sold, transferred or
       otherwise disposed of unless the same are registered with and qualified
       in accordance with said Acts and any other applicable state securities
       law, or in the opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company
       such registration and qualification are not required."

Any certificate issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any
certificate bearing such legend (except a new certificate issued upon completion
of a public distribution under a registration statement of the securities
represented thereby) shall also bear such legend unless in the opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company the securities represented
thereby need no longer be subject to the restrictions contained in this Warrant
Certificate. The provisions of paragraph 2 shall be binding upon all subsequent
holders of certificates bearing the above legend, and shall also be applicable
to all subsequent holders of this Warrant Certificate.

       (c) Expenses and Taxes on Exercise. The Company shall pay all expenses,
taxes and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution
and delivery of stock certificates and new Warrants pursuant to this paragraph
1, except that, in case such stock certificates or new Warrants shall be
registered in a name or names other than the name of the holder of this Warrant
Certificate, funds sufficient to pay all stock transfer taxes which shall be
payable upon the execution and delivery of such stock certificate or
certificates or new Warrants shall be paid by the holder hereof to the Company
at the time of delivering this Warrant Certificate to the Company upon exercise.

       2. Warrants and Warrant Shares Not Registered. Each holder of this
Warrant Certificate, by acceptance thereof, represents and acknowledges that the
Warrants and the Warrant Shares which may be purchased upon exercise of the
Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate are not being registered under
the Securities Act on the grounds that the issuance of the Warrants and the
offering and sale of such Warrant Shares are exempt from registration under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as not involving any public offering. Neither
the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate nor the related Warrant
Shares may be transferred except in compliance with requirements of the Purchase
Agreement.

       3. Government Approvals. If in connection with the Warrants represented
by this Warrant Certificate or any Warrant Shares issuable or issued pursuant
hereto the Company is required to obtain or make any declaration, qualification
or registration with or approval of any governmental official or authority
(other than registration under the Securities Act) before shares issued pursuant
hereto may be transferred or before such shares may be issued upon the exercise
hereof, the Company will at its sole expense take all requisite action in
connection with such declaration, qualification, registration or approval and
will use its best efforts to cause such shares and/or the Warrants represented
by this Warrant Certificate to be duly registered or approved as may be
required.

       4. Special Agreements of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees
that:

                                       3

<PAGE>

       (a) Character of Warrant Shares. All shares which may be issued upon the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant Certificate, upon issuance,
will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free
from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

       (b) Par Value. The Company will take from time to time all such action as
may be requisite to ensure that the par value per share (if any) of the Common
Stock is at all times equal to or less than the then effective Warrant Purchase
Price per share of the Warrant Shares issuable pursuant to this Warrant
Certificate.

       (c) Will Reserve Shares. During the period within which the rights
represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will have at all times
authorized, and reserved (free from preemptive rights) for the purpose of issue
or transfer upon exercise of the rights evidenced by this Warrant Certificate, a
sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock of the appropriate class to
provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this and the other
Warrants.

       (d) No Violations. The Company will take all such action as may be
necessary to ensure that Warrant Shares may be so issued without violation of
any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any securities
exchange upon which the Common Stock of the Company may be listed.

       (e) Maintain Authorized Shares. The Company will not take any action
which would result in any adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price if the total
number of Warrant Shares issuable after such action upon full exercise of all
then outstanding Warrants, together with all shares of Common Stock then
outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all
Options (as hereinafter defined) to purchase Common Stock and upon conversion of
all Convertible Securities (as hereinafter defined) then outstanding, would
exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the
Company's Certificate or Articles of Incorporation, as then amended.

       5(a) Anti-Dilution Provisions. The Warrant Purchase Price shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter provided. Upon each
adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price, the holder of this Warrant Certificate
shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Warrant Purchase Price
resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares obtained by multiplying the
Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the
number of shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such
adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Warrant Purchase Price
resulting from such adjustment.

       5(b) Warrant Purchase Price Adjustments. If and whenever after the date
hereof the Company shall issue or sell any shares of its Common Stock for a
consideration per share less than the Fair Value Per Share of Common Stock
immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, or shall be deemed under
the provisions of this paragraph 5 to have effected any such issuance or sale,
then, forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Warrant Purchase Price shall be
reduced to a price determined by multiplying the Warrant 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 (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the Fair Value
Per Share of Common Stock immediately prior to such issue or sale

                                       4

<PAGE>

plus (ii) the consideration received by the Company upon such issue or sale, and
the denominator of which shall be the product of (iii) the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale,
multiplied by (iv) the Fair Value Per Share of Common Stock immediately prior to
such issue or sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment of the Warrant
Purchase Price or the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall be made in
connection with the issuance of Common Stock upon exercise of Warrants, or upon
the issuance or sale of Excluded Securities.

       For the purposes of this paragraph 5(b), the following provisions 5(b)(1)
to 5(b)(9), inclusive, shall also be applicable:

              5(b)(1) In the event that at any time the Company shall in any
       manner grant, issue or sell (directly, by assumption in a merger or
       otherwise) any rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase, or any
       options for the purchase of, Common Stock or any stock or securities
       convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such rights, warrants
       or options being herein called "Options" and such convertible or
       exchangeable stock or securities being herein called "Convertible
       Securities"), whether or not such Options or the right to convert or
       exchange any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and
       the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise
       of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible
       Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received
       or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such
       Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration
       payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus, in
       the case of any such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the
       minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable
       upon the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities and upon the
       conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total number of shares of
       Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the
       conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon
       the exercise of such Options) shall be less than the Fair Value Per Share
       of Common Stock in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting,
       issuance or sale of such Options, then the maximum number of shares of
       Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon
       conversion or exchange of the maximum amount of such Convertible
       Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall (as of the
       date of granting, issuance or sale of such Options) be deemed to be
       outstanding and to have been issued for such price per share. Except as
       otherwise provided in subparagraph 5(b)(3), no further adjustment of the
       Warrant Purchase Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common
       Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such Options or
       upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of
       such Convertible Securities.

              5(b)(2) In the event that the Company shall in any manner issue
       (directly, by assumption in a merger or otherwise) or sell any
       Convertible Securities (other than pursuant to the exercise of Options to
       purchase such Convertible Securities covered by subparagraph 5(b)(1)),
       whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are
       immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock
       is issuable upon such conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (i)
       the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration
       for the issue or sale of such Convertible

                                       5

<PAGE>

       Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
       consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or
       exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common
       Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible
       Securities) shall be less than the Fair Value Per Share of Common Stock
       in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the
       total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
       or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall (as of the date of
       the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities) be deemed to be
       outstanding and to have been issued for such price per share, provided
       that, except as otherwise provided in subparagraph 5(b)(3), no further
       adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price shall be made upon the actual
       issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such
       Convertible Securities.

              5(b)(3) In connection with any change in, or the expiration or
       termination of, the purchase rights under any Option or the conversion or
       exchange rights under any Convertible Securities, the following
       provisions shall apply:

              (A) If the purchase price provided for in any Option referred to
       in subparagraph 5(b)(1), the additional consideration, if any, payable
       upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to
       in subparagraph 5(b)(1) or 5(b)(2), or the rate at which any Convertible
       Securities referred to in subparagraph 5(b)(1) or 5(b)(2) are convertible
       into or exchangeable for Common Stock shall change at any time (other
       than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against
       dilution), then the Warrant Purchase Price in effect at the time of such
       change shall forthwith be increased or decreased to the Warrant Purchase
       Price which would be in effect immediately after such change if (a) the
       adjustments which were made upon the issuance of such Options or
       Convertible Securities had been made upon the basis of (and taking into
       account the total consideration received as a result of) (i) the issuance
       at that time of the Common Stock, if any, delivered upon the exercise of
       any such Options or upon the exercise of any such Options or upon the
       conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities before such
       change, and (ii) the issuance at that time of all such Options or
       Convertible Securities, with terms and provisions reflecting such change,
       which are still outstanding after such change, and (b) the Warrant
       Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to clause (a) preceding had been used
       as the basis for the adjustments required hereunder in connection with
       all other issues or sales of Common Stock, Options or Convertible
       Securities by the Company subsequent to the issuance of such Options or
       Convertible Securities.

              (B) On the partial or complete expiration of any Options or
       termination of any right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities,
       the Warrant Purchase Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be
       increased or decreased to the Warrant Purchase Price which would be in
       effect at the time of such expiration or termination if (a) the
       adjustments which were made upon the issuance of such Options or
       Convertible Securities had been made upon the basis of (and taking into
       account the total consideration received for) (i) the issuance at that
       time of the Common Stock, if any, delivered upon the exercise of such
       Options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities
       before such expiration or termination, and (ii) the issuance at that time
       of only those such Options or Convertible Securities which remain
       outstanding after

                                       6

<PAGE>

     such expiration or termination, and (b) the Warrant Purchase Price as
     adjusted pursuant to clause (a) preceding had been used as the basis for
     adjustments required hereunder in connection with all other issues or sales
     of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities by the Company
     subsequent to the issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities.

          (C)  If the purchase price provided for in any Option referred to in
     subparagraph 5(b)(l) or the rate at which any Convertible Securities
     referred to in subparagraph 5(b)(l) or 5(b)(2) are convertible into or
     exchangeable for Common Stock shall be reduced at any time under or by
     reason of provisions with respect thereto designed to protect against
     dilution, and the event causing such reduction is one that did not also
     require an adjustment in the Warrant Purchase Price under other provisions
     of this paragraph 5(b), then in case of the delivery of shares of Common
     Stock upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange
     of any such Convertible Securities, the Warrant Purchase Price then in
     effect hereunder shall forthwith be adjusted to such amount as would have
     obtained if such Option or Convertible Securities had never been issued and
     if the adjustments made upon the issuance of such Option or Convertible
     Securities had been made upon the basis of the issuance of (and taking into
     account the total consideration received for) the shares of Common Stock
     delivered as aforesaid (provided that the Fair Value Per Share of Common
     Stock used in such determination shall be as of the date of issue of such
     Option or Convertible Securities); provided that no such adjustment shall
     be made unless the Warrant Purchase Price then in effect would be reduced
     thereby.

          5(b)(4) In the event that the Company shall declare a dividend or make
     any other distribution upon any stock of the Company payable in Common
     Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, any Common Stock, Options or
     Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issuable in payment of such
     dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been issued or sold
     without consideration.

          5(b)(5) For purposes of this paragraph 5(b), the amount of
     consideration received by the Company in connection with the issuance or
     sale of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be determined
     in accordance with the following:

          (A)  In the event that shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible
     Securities shall be issued or sold for cash, the consideration received
     therefor shall be deemed to be the amount payable to the Company therefor,
     without deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any underwriting
     commissions or concessions or discounts paid or allowed by the Company in
     connection therewith.

          (B)  In the event that any shares of Common Stock, Options or
     Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for a consideration other
     than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash payable to the
     Company shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration as
     determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and
     reflected in a formal resolution of such Board, without deduction of any
     expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions or
     discounts paid or allowed by the Company in connection therewith.

                                       7

<PAGE>

          (C)  The amount of consideration deemed to be received by the Company
     pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this subparagraph 5(b)(5) upon any
     issuance and/or sale, pursuant to an established compensation plan of the
     Company, to directors, officers or employees of the Company in connection
     with their employment, of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible
     Securities, shall be increased by the amount of any tax benefit realized by
     the Company as a result of such issuance and/or sale, the amount of such
     tax benefit being the amount by which the Federal and/or State income or
     other tax liability of the Company shall be reduced by reason of any
     deduction or credit in respect of such issuance and/or sale.

          (D)  In the event that any shares of Common Stock, Options or
     Convertible Securities shall be issued in connection with any merger in
     which the Company is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration
     therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value, as determined in good faith
     by the Board of Directors of the Company and reflected in a formal
     resolution of such Board, of such portion of the assets and business of the
     non-surviving corporation as such Board shall determine to be attributable
     to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may
     be.

          (E)  In the event that any Options shall be issued in connection with
     the issue and sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising
     one integral transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to
     such Options by the parties thereto, such Options shall be deemed to have
     been issued without consideration.

          (F)  In the event of any consolidation or merger of the Company in
     which stock or securities of another corporation are issued in exchange for
     Common Stock of the Company or in the event of any sale of all or
     substantially all of the assets of the Company for stock or other
     securities of any corporation the Company shall be deemed to have issued a
     number of shares of its Common Stock for stock or securities of the other
     corporation computed on the basis of the actual exchange ratio on which the
     transaction was predicated and for a consideration equal to the fair market
     value on the date of such transaction of such stock or securities of the
     other corporation, and if any such calculation results in adjustment of the
     Warrant Purchase Price, the determination of the number of shares of Common
     Stock receivable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such
     merger, consolidation or sale, for purposes of paragraph 5(e), shall be
     made after giving effect to such adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price.

          5(b)(6) In the event that at any time the Company shall take a record
     of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to
     receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options
     or Convertible Securities, or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common
     Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be
     deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock
     deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or
     the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such
     right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

          5(b)(7) 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, and the

                                       8

<PAGE>

     disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of
     Common Stock for the purposes of this paragraph 5(b).

          5(c) Payments to Holders in Connection With Certain Dividends. In the
event that the Company declares a dividend upon the Common Stock, other than a
dividend payable in Common Stock, then at the option of the Company, either

          (1)  the Company shall pay over to the holder of the Warrants
     represented by this Warrant Certificate, on the dividend payment date, the
     cash, stock or other securities and other property which the holder of this
     Warrant Certificate would have received if such holder had exercised the
     Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate 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, if a record
     is not taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record
     entitled to such dividend are to be determined, or

          (2)  the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the
     declaration of such dividend shall be reduced (to an amount not less than
     zero) by an amount equal to the amount of such dividend payable per share
     of Common Stock, in the case of a cash dividend, or by the fair value of
     such dividend per share (as determined in good faith by the Board of
     Directors of the Company and reflected in a formal resolution of such
     Board) in the case of any other dividend, such reduction to be effective on
     the date as of which a record is taken for purposes of such dividend, or if
     a record is not taken, the date as of which holders of record of Common
     Stock entitled to such dividend are determined;

provided that

          (3)  in the case of a dividend consisting of stock or securities
     (other than Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities) or other
     property (except cash) distributable to holders of Common Stock, the
     holders of a majority of the outstanding Warrants may, at their option,
     elect that instead of (1) or (2) above lawful and adequate provisions shall
     be made (including without limitation any necessary reduction in the
     Warrant Purchase Price) whereby each holder of Warrants shall thereafter
     have the right to purchase and/or receive, on the terms and conditions
     specified in this Warrant Certificate and in addition to the Warrant Shares
     purchasable immediately prior to the declaration of such dividend, such
     shares of stock, securities or property as are distributable with respect
     to outstanding shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Warrant Shares
     purchasable immediately prior to such declaration, to the end that the
     provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustments
     of the Warrant Purchase Price and of the number of shares receivable upon
     exercise) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation
     to such shares of stock, securities or property.

For the purposes of this paragraph 5, "dividend" shall mean any distribution to

          5(d) Stock Splits and Reverse Splits. In the event that the Company
shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares, the

                                       9

<PAGE>

Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to
the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate immediately prior to such
subdivision shall be proportionately increased, and conversely, in the event
that the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall at any time be
combined into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the
number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants
represented by this Warrant Certificate immediately prior to such combination
shall be proportionately reduced. Except as provided in this paragraph 5(d) no
adjustment in the Warrant Purchase Price and no change in the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable shall be made under this paragraph 5 as a result of or by
reason of any such subdivision or combination.

          5(e) Reorganizations and Asset Sales. If any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or any consolidation or
merger of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or
substantially all of its assets to another corporation shall be effected in such
a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock,
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then the
following provisions shall apply:

          5(e)(1) As a condition of such reorganization, reclassification,
     consolidation, merger or sale (except as otherwise provided below in this
     paragraph 5(e)), lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby each
     holder of Warrants shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive
     upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant Certificate and in
     lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the
     exercise of the rights represented hereby, such shares of stock, securities
     or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a
     number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of
     Warrant Shares immediately theretofore so receivable had such
     reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale not taken
     place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with
     respect to the rights and interests of such holder to the end that the
     provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustments
     of the Warrant Purchase Price and of the number of shares receivable upon
     the exercise) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in
     relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter
     deliverable upon the exercise of Warrants (including an immediate
     adjustment, by reason of such consolidation or merger, of the Warrant
     Purchase Price to the value for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of
     such consolidation or merger if the value so reflected is less than the
     Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation or
     merger).

          5(e)(2) In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with
     or into another corporation as a result of which a number of shares of
     Common Stock of the surviving corporation greater or lesser than the number
     of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to
     such merger or consolidation are issuable to holders of Common Stock of the
     Company, then (subject to paragraph 5(e)(3)) the Warrant Purchase Price in
     effect immediately prior to such merger or consolidation shall be adjusted
     in the same manner as though there were a subdivision or combination of the
     outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.

                                       10

<PAGE>

          5(e)(3) The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or
     sale unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the
     successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such
     consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall
     assume by written instrument executed and mailed or delivered to each
     Warrantholder at the last address of such holder appearing on the books of
     the Company, the obligation to deliver to such holder such shares of stock,
     securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such
     Warrantholder may be entitled to receive, and all other liabilities and
     obligations of the Company hereunder. Upon written request by the holder of
     this Warrant Certificate such successor corporation will issue a new
     warrant revised to reflect the modifications in this Warrant Certificate
     effected pursuant to this paragraph 5(e).

          5(e)(4) If a purchase, tender or exchange offer is made to and
     accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of
     Common Stock of the Company, the Company shall not effect any
     consolidation, merger or sale with the person, firm or corporation having
     made such offer or with any affiliate of such person, firm or corporation,
     unless prior to the consummation of such consolidation, merger or sale the
     holder of this Warrant Certificate shall have been given a reasonable
     opportunity to then elect to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant
     Certificate either the stock, securities or assets then issuable with
     respect to the Common Stock of the Company or the stock, securities or
     assets, or the equivalent, issued to previous holders of the Common Stock
     in accordance with such offer.

          5(f) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Warrant Purchase Price and the
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants represented
by this Warrant Certificate shall be adjusted as herein provided, or the rights
of Warrantholders shall change by reason of other events specified herein, the
Company shall compute the adjusted Warrant Purchase Price and the adjusted
number of Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions hereof and shall
prepare a certificate signed by its President or Vice President setting forth
the adjusted Warrant Purchase Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant
Certificate or specifying the other shares of stock, securities or assets
receivable as a result of such change in rights, and showing in reasonable
detail the facts and calculations upon which such adjustments or other changes
are based including a statement of the consideration received or to be received
by the Company for, and the amount of, any Common Stock, Options and Convertible
Securities issued since the last such adjustment or change (or since the date
hereof in the case of the first adjustment or change). The Company shall cause
to be mailed to the holder of this Warrant Certificate copies of such officer's
certificate together with a notice stating that the Warrant Purchase Price and
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants
represented by this Warrant Certificate have been adjusted and setting forth the
adjusted Warrant Purchase Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant
Certificate.

          5(g) Notifications to Holders. In case at any time the Company
proposes:

          (1)  to make or declare any dividend upon its Common Stock whether in
     cash, stock or any other property;

                                       11

<PAGE>

          (2)  to issue any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible
     Securities (except pursuant to the exercise of Warrants or Options or the
     conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities in accordance with their
     terms);

          (3)  to offer for subscription to any holder of its Common Stock any
     additional shares of stock of any class or other rights;

          (4)  to effect any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the
     capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company
     with another corporation, or sale or other disposition of all or
     substantially all of its assets; or

          (5)  to effect a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
     winding up of the Company;

then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give the holder of
this Warrant Certificate (a) at least 20 days (but not more than 90 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 issuance, reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up, and (b) in the case of any such issuance, reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up, at least 20 days (but not more than 90 days) prior written notice of
the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the
foregoing clause (a) 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 such notice in accordance with the
foregoing clause (b) shall also 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.

          5(h) Company to Prevent Dilution. If any event or condition occurs as
to which other provisions of this paragraph 5 are not strictly applicable or if
strictly applicable would not fairly protect the exercise or purchase rights of
this Warrant Certificate in accordance with the essential intent and principles
of such provisions, or which might materially and adversely affect the exercise
or purchase rights of the Warrantholders under any provisions of the Warrants,
then the Company shall make an adjustment in the application of such provisions,
in accordance with such essential intent and principles, so as to protect such
exercise and purchase rights as aforesaid, and any adjustment necessary with
respect to the Warrant Purchase Price and the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable hereunder so as to preserve without dilution the rights of the
holders of Warrants. In no event shall any such adjustment have the effect of
increasing the Warrant Purchase Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this
paragraph 5 except in the event of an increase in option price, additional
consideration or conversion rate, or an expiration or termination of an Option
or right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities, as contemplated by
paragraph 5(b)(3), or a combination of shares of the type contemplated in
paragraph 5(d), and then in no event to an amount larger than the Warrant
Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to paragraph 5(b)(3) or paragraph 5(d).

              5(i) Disputes. In the event that there is any dispute as to the
computation of the price or the number of Warrant Shares required to be issued
upon exercise of Warrants (in which holders of 50 percent or more of the
Warrants shall join), the holders and the Company will retain an independent and
nationally recognized accounting firm to conduct at the expense of the Company
an audit of the computations pursuant to the terms hereof involved in such
dispute, including the financial statements or other information upon which such
computations were based. The determination of such nationally recognized
accounting firm shall, in the absence of manifest error, be binding upon the
holders of the Warrants and the Company. If there shall be a dispute as to the
selection of such nationally recognized accounting firm, such firm shall be
appointed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") if
willing, otherwise the American Arbitration Association, ("AAA") upon
application by the Company or any holder or holders of at least 50 percent of
the outstanding Warrants with notice to the others. If the price or number of
Warrant Shares as determined by such accounting firm is ten percent (10%) or
more higher or lower than the price or number of Warrant Shares computed by the
Company, the expenses of such accounting firm and, if any, AICPA and AAA, shall
be borne completely by the Company. In all other cases, they shall be borne by
the disputing Warrantholders.
