entitled to vote the Shareholder Group Shares in their discretion on any Select
Voting Matter that may be presented to the stockholders of the Company and (ii)
be present in person or represented by proxy, at all meetings of stockholders of
the Company so that all Shareholder Group Shares shall be counted for the
purpose of determining the presence of a quorum at such meetings. For the
avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that nothing contained in
Section 3.1 shall limit any Shareholder Group member from exercising its voting
rights as permitted under this Section 3.3 with respect to Director elections
and Select Voting Matters.

          Section 3.4 Board of Directors. (a)(i) For so long as the Shareholder

Shareholder Group Directors or any replacements therefor (one of whom shall be
the Chief Executive Officer of Parent and one of whom shall be an individual
mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Company from amongst a pool of the Parent
Board Members (a "Parent Director"), provided that Parent and the Company shall
be entitled, should they agree, to select a nominee not from amongst such pool
in lieu of such Parent Director) shall be included in the slate of nominees
recommended by the Board to stockholders for election as Directors at each
annual meeting of stockholders commencing with the first annual meeting of
stockholders following the Closing, (ii) for so long as the Shareholder Group
Shares represent 5% or more of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock but
less than 50% of the Original Issued Shares, the Chief Executive Officer of
Parent shall be included in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board to
stockholders for election as a Director at each annual meeting of stockholders
commencing with the first annual meeting of stockholders following the Closing
and (iii) if the Shareholder Group Shares represent less than 5% of the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock, Parent shall not be entitled to participate
in the selection of any nominees for election to the Board; provided, that in
the event the size of the Board shall be increased to at least 16 but fewer than
20 individuals, (A)

                                      -7-

<PAGE>

under the circumstances set forth in clause (i) above, such slate of nominees
shall include, in addition to the nominees contemplated by such clause (i), one
additional Parent Director (or in lieu of such Parent Director another
individual not from amongst the pool of Parent Board Members if mutually agreed
upon by Parent and the Company) and (B) for so long as the Shareholder Group
Shares represent 10% or more of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock but
less than 50% of the Original Issued Shares, such slate of nominees shall
include the Chief Executive Officer of Parent and one Parent Director (or in
lieu of such Parent Director another individual not from amongst the pool of
Parent Board Members if Parent and the Company so mutually agree); and provided,
further, that in the event the size of the Board is increased to at least 20
individuals, (A) under the circumstances set forth in clause (i) above, such
slate of nominees shall include, in addition to the nominees contemplated by
such clause (i), two additional Parent Directors (or in lieu of either of such
Parent Directors another individual or individuals not from amongst the pool of
Parent Board Members if mutually agreed to by Parent and the Company) and (B)
under the circumstances set forth in clause (ii) above, such slate of nominees
shall include, in addition to the Chief Executive Officer of Parent, one Parent
Director (or in lieu of such Parent Director another individual not from amongst
the pool of Parent Board Members if Parent and the Company so mutually agree).
Parent shall provide in a timely manner all information required by Regulation
14A and Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act with respect to each such nominee.

          (b) In the event that any Shareholder Group Director shall cease to
serve as a Director for any reason other than the fact that Parent no longer has
a right to participate in the selection of nominees to the Board (i) if the
vacancy is created by a change in the Chief Executive Officer of Parent, the
vacancy created thereby shall be filled by the new Chief Executive Officer of
Parent, (ii) if the vacancy is created by the departure of a Parent Director,
the vacancy created thereby shall be filled by a Parent Director (or in lieu of
such Parent Director another individual not from amongst the pool of Parent
Board Members if Parent and the Company shall so mutually agree) or (iii)
otherwise, the vacancy created thereby shall be filled by a Parent Director (or
in lieu of a Parent Director another individual not from amongst the pool of
Parent Board Members if mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Company).

          (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i)
upon the first date that the Shareholder Group Shares represent 5% or more of
the then outstanding Shares of Common Stock but less than 50% of the Original

to cause the Shareholder Group Director who is not the Chief Executive Officer
of Parent to resign immediately and (B) at such time when there are 20 or more
Directors serving on the Board, the Shareholder Group members shall use their
reasonable best efforts to cause the Shareholder Group Directors other than the

represent 10% or more of the then outstanding Shares of Common Stock but less
than 50% of the Original Issued Shares at such time when there are at least 16
but fewer than 20 Directors serving on the Board, the Shareholder Group members
shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause one Shareholder Group Director
other than the Chief Executive Officer of Parent to resign immediately, (iii)
upon the first date that the Shareholder Group Shares represent 5% or more but
less than 10% of the then outstanding Shares of Common Stock at such time when
there are at least 16 but fewer than 20 Directors serving on the Board, the

members shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Shareholder Group
Director other than the Chief Executive Officer of Parent to resign immediately
and (iv) upon the first date that the Shareholder Group Shares represent less
than 5% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Shareholder Group
members shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause any Shareholder Group
Director(s) then serving on the Board to resign immediately.

          (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Shareholder Group Directors shall be permitted to provide to
Parent information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that such
individuals receive in their capacity as Directors, provided that with respect
to any such information provided, Parent shall, and it hereby agrees to, be
bound by the same restrictions on disclosure and use of confidential information
as apply to such Shareholder Group Directors in their capacity as Directors.

Parent in a reasonably timely manner such information regarding the Company and
its Subsidiaries as Parent requests and which is necessary in order for Parent
to prepare (a) the reports and accounts of Parent required under applicable
stock exchange rules and regulations or (b) the reports of Parent required to be
filed under the Exchange Act, provided that with respect to such information
provided, Parent shall, and it hereby agrees to, be bound by the same
restrictions on disclosure and use of confidential information as apply to a
Shareholder Group Director in its capacity as a Director, it being understood
and agreed that nothing contained in this Section 3.5 shall prohibit Parent from
including any such information in such reports under applicable stock exchange
rules and regulations or under the Exchange Act as and to the extent required to
be so included.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                        TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS; LIQUIDITY

          Section 4.1 Transfer Restrictions. Without the prior consent of the
Board, the members of the Shareholder Group shall not Transfer any Shareholder
Group Shares except for:

          (a)  Transfers made prior to the eight-month anniversary of the
               Closing or following the fourteen-month anniversary of the
               Closing (i) in an underwritten public offering in a manner
               designed to result in a wide distribution or (ii) in one or more
               privately negotiated transactions exempt from the registration
               requirements of the Securities Act; provided that in each case no
               Transfer under this clause (a) is made, to the knowledge of the
               Shareholder Group (without inquiry in the case of a Transfer
               pursuant to clause (i)), to any Person or group that, after
               giving effect to such Transfer, would Beneficially Own Voting
               Securities representing more than 5% of the Voting Power, except
               that in the case of a Transfer to a Person specified in Rule
               13d-1(b)(1)(ii) promulgated under the Exchange Act that would be
               eligible based on such Person's status and passive intent with
               respect to the ownership, holding and voting of such Voting
               Securities to report such Person's ownership of Voting Securities
               on Schedule 13G (assuming such Person owned a sufficient number
               of such Voting Securities to require such

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

               filing), no Transfer under this clause (a) is made to any such
               Person that, after giving effect to such Transfer, would
               Beneficially Own Voting Securities representing 10% or more of
               the Voting Power; and provided further, that in the
               case of a Transfer pursuant to clause (i), the members of the
               Shareholder Group shall use their reasonable best efforts to
               cause the underwriter(s) of such offering to agree to use their
               reasonable efforts to prevent any purchase of shares in such
               offering by any Person or group that would, upon such purchase,
               exceed either of the foregoing thresholds;

          (b)  Transfers made following the fourteen-month anniversary of the
               Closing pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act;

          (c)  Transfers pursuant to any business combination, tender or
               exchange offer to acquire Common Stock or other extraordinary
               transaction that the Board has recommended, or pursuant to a
               tender or exchange offer that the Board has not recommended but
               only after such time as a majority of the shares of Common Stock
               outstanding have been tendered into such offer and after all
               material conditions with respect to such offer (including any
               financing condition, any minimum condition with respect to number
               of shares tendered and any condition with respect to removal of
               the Company Rights Plan or any other takeover protections) have
               been satisfied or irrevocably waived by the offeror; provided
               that no Shareholder Group Shares shall be tendered into any
               tender offer or exchange offer not recommended by the Board prior
               to the time all such material conditions (other than any such
               condition that can be satisfied only at the closing of such
               offer) have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by the offeror;

          (d)  Transfers to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company;

          (e)  Transfers to a bona fide financial institution acting in the
               capacity of trustee ("Trustee") with respect to an exchangeable
               or convertible security of Parent (the "Security"); provided,
               that the terms of the Security shall be consistent with the
               rights, restrictions and limitations set forth in this Agreement
               and the powers of the Trustee shall be consistent therewith; and
               provided further that the distribution by Parent of the Security
               and the underlying Shareholder Group Shares otherwise complies
               with the restrictions on Transfer contained in this Section 4.1;
               and

          (f)  Transfers by a member of the Shareholder Group to Parent or to
               any controlled Affiliate of Parent or to any new holding company
               of the Shareholder Group, provided that prior thereto such
               transferee agrees in writing to acquire and hold such transferred
               shares subject to all the provisions of this Agreement as if such
               transferee were an original member of the Shareholder Group.

          Any certificates for shares of Common Stock issued in respect of any
Transfer pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(ii) or Section 4.1(f) shall bear a legend or
legends referencing

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

restrictions under the Securities Act on transfer of such shares and, in the
case of a Transfer under Section 4.1(f), under this Agreement; provided, that
the holder of any certificate(s) bearing any such legend referencing
restrictions under the Securities Act shall be entitled to receive from the
Company new certificates for a like number of shares of Common Stock not bearing
such legend upon the request of such holder and upon delivery to the Company of
an opinion of counsel to such holder, which opinion is reasonably satisfactory,
in form and substance, to the Company and its counsel, that the restriction
referenced in such legend is no longer required in order to ensure compliance
with the Securities Act.

          Prior to the fourteen-month anniversary of the Closing Date, no
Shareholder Group member nor any of their respective directors and officers
shall, and each Shareholder Group member shall use its reasonable best efforts
to cause its and its Subsidiaries' employees, agents and representatives,
including any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by it or any of
its Subsidiaries not to, make any public statement or announcement regarding, or
cause to be known by the public or the investment community generally, any plan
or intention of any Shareholder Group member to sell or otherwise dispose of,
prior to such fourteen-month anniversary of the Closing, any Registrable Shares
(or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for any Registrable Shares)
to the public or any third party, other than sales or dispositions that are
intended to be consummated prior to the eight-month anniversary of the Closing
Date.

          Section 4.2 Company Repurchase. (a) Until the twentieth anniversary of
the Closing or, if earlier, such time as the Shareholder Group Shares represent
less than 5% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, if the Company
purchases, during any fiscal year of the Company, shares of Common Stock whether
by open market repurchase or otherwise, other than by tender offer or in
connection with the Company's employee benefit plans (a "Repurchase"), the
Company shall, within 30 days after the end of such fiscal year (other than the
first fiscal year end occurring after the Closing Date), deliver to Parent, on
behalf of the Shareholder Group, a written offer to purchase Shareholder Group
Shares from the members of the Shareholder Group on the terms set forth below (a
"Repurchase Offer"). Each Repurchase Offer shall offer to purchase a percentage
of the Shareholder Group Shares as of the end of such fiscal year equal to the
percentage that the shares of Common Stock repurchased from the Beneficial
Owners of shares of Common Stock other than the Shareholder Group (the "Public
Shares") during such fiscal year (or, in the case of the Repurchase Offer made
in respect of the first full fiscal year of the Company occurring after the
Closing Date, during the period beginning on the day following the Closing Date
and ending on the fiscal year end of the first full fiscal year occurring after
the Closing Date) represents of the total average outstanding Public Shares
during such fiscal year or period, at a price per share equal to the weighted
average per share purchase price paid for Repurchases during such fiscal year or
period. Each Repurchase Offer shall set forth the calculation of such
percentage, average number of shares outstanding and the weighted average per
share purchase price. Parent shall provide notice to the Company within 15 days
of receipt of a Repurchase Offer of whether the Shareholder Group accepts such
Repurchase Offer, which notice shall specify the total number of Shareholder
Group Shares as to which the Repurchase Offer is accepted, the name or names of
the selling Shareholder Group members and the number of Shareholder Group Shares
to be sold by each such member.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

          (b) Any purchase of Shareholder Group Shares by the Company pursuant
to this Section 4.2 shall be on a mutually determined closing date which shall
not be more than 20 Business Days after Parent delivers the notice of acceptance
pursuant to Section 4.2(a). On the closing date, the selling members of the
Shareholder Group shall deliver the shares of Common Stock being sold and
documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Company evidencing the transfer of
such Common Stock. The purchase price shall be paid by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified by Parent by
notice given no less than two Business Days prior to the closing date.

          (c) The Company may assign any of its purchase rights under this
Section 4.2 to any Subsidiary of the Company without the consent of the
Shareholder Group, provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve the
Company of any of its obligations thereunder.

          Section 4.3 Obligation to Dispose of Shareholder Group Shares. The
members of the Shareholder Group shall, and hereby agree to, prior to the tenth
anniversary of the Closing Date, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of
Shareholder Group Shares, in each case in accordance with Section 4.1, such that
on and as of such tenth anniversary of the Closing Date the Shareholder Group
Shares held by the Shareholder Group members shall represent less than 25% of
the Original Issued Shares.

                                    ARTICLE V

                               REGISTRATION RIGHTS

          Section 5.1 Demand Registrations. (a) Subject to Section 5.3, at any
time prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing or following the
fourteen-month anniversary of the Closing, Parent, on behalf of the Shareholder
Group, may, on not more than twelve (12) separate occasions in the aggregate and
not more frequently than once during any nine-month period, require the Company
to file a registration statement under the Securities Act in respect of all or a
portion of the Registrable Shares (so long as such request covers Registrable
Shares with a Market Value on the date of the Demand Request of at least $300
million if the aggregate Market Value of all Registrable Shares on such date is
at least $300 million or, if such Market Value is less than $300 million, so
long as such request covers all Registrable Shares), by delivering to the
Company written notice stating that such right is being exercised, specifying
the number of shares of Common Stock to be included in such registration (the
shares subject to such request, the "Demand Shares") and describing the intended
method of distribution thereof, which may include an underwritten offering (a
"Demand Request"). Subject to Section 5.7, upon receiving a Demand Request, the
Company shall (i) use reasonable best efforts to file as promptly as reasonably
practicable a registration statement on such form as the Company may reasonably
deem appropriate (provided that the Company shall not be obligated to register
any securities on a "shelf" registration statement or otherwise to register
securities for offer or sale on a continuous or delayed basis) providing for the
registration of the sale of such Demand Shares pursuant to the intended method
of distribution (a "Demand Registration") and (ii) after the filing of an
initial version of the registration statement, use reasonable best efforts to
cause such registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities
Act as promptly as practicable after the date of filing of such registration
statement.

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

          (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Company shall be entitled to postpone and delay, for reasonable periods of time,
but in no event more than an aggregate of 60 days during any 12-month period (a
"Blackout Period"), the filing or effectiveness of any Demand Registration if
the Company shall determine that any such filing or the offering of any
Registrable Shares would (i) in the good faith judgment of the Board, impede,
delay or otherwise interfere with any pending or contemplated material
acquisition, corporate reorganization or other similar material transaction
involving the Company, (ii) based upon advice from the Company's investment
banker or financial advisor, adversely affect any pending or contemplated
financing, offering or sale of any class of securities by the Company or (iii)
in the good faith judgment of the Board, require disclosure of material
non-public information (other than information relating to an event described in
clauses (i) or (ii) above) which, if disclosed at such time, would be harmful to
the best interests of the Company and its stockholders; provided, however, that
the Company shall give written notice to Parent of its determination to postpone
or delay the filing of any Demand Registration; and provided, further, that in
the event that the Company proposes to register Common Stock, whether or not for
sale for its own account, during a Blackout Period, the Shareholder Group shall
have the right to exercise its rights under Section 5.2 of this Agreement with
respect to such registration, subject to the limitations contained in this
Agreement on the exercise of such rights. Upon notice by the Company to Parent
of any such determination, the members of the Shareholder Group shall keep the
fact of any such notice strictly confidential, and during any Blackout Period,
promptly halt any offer, sale, trading or transfer by it of any Common Stock for
the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until such
Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company) and
promptly halt any use, publication, dissemination or distribution of the Demand
Registration, each prospectus included therein, and any amendment or supplement
thereto by it for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice
(or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the
Company) and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company any
copies then in its possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable
Shares.

          (c) In connection with an underwritten offering, if the managing
underwriter or co-managing underwriter reasonably and in good faith shall have
advised the Company or Parent that, in its opinion, the number of Demand Shares
subject to a Demand Request exceeds the number which can be sold in such
offering, the Company shall include in such registration the number of Demand
Shares that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be
sold in such offering; provided that if as a result of any reduction pursuant to
this paragraph (c) the aggregate Market Value of the Demand Shares to be so
included is less than $300 million, the Shareholder Group may withdraw such
Demand Request with respect to all Demand Shares covered thereby and such
registration shall not count for the purposes of determining the number of
Demand Registrations to which the Shareholder Group is entitled under Section
5.1(a).

          (d) In connection with any underwritten offering, the managing
underwriter for such Demand Registration shall be selected by Parent, provided
that such managing underwriter shall be a nationally recognized investment
banking firm and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company may,
at its option, select a nationally recognized investment banking firm reasonably
acceptable to Parent to act as co-managing underwriter.

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

          (e) Nothing in this Article V shall affect or supersede any of the
transfer restrictions set forth in Article IV hereof or any of the other
provisions of this Agreement.

          Section 5.2 Piggy-Back Registration. (a) If, at any time following the
Closing, the Company proposes to register any Common Stock under the Securities
Act on its behalf or on behalf of any of its stockholders, on a form and in a
manner that would permit registration of the Registrable Shares (other than in
connection with dividend reinvestment plans, rights offerings or a registration
statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any similar successor form), the Company shall
give reasonably prompt written notice to Parent, on behalf of the Shareholder
Group, of its intention to do so, which notice shall be given to Parent not less
than 15 Business Days prior to the contemplated filing date for such
registration statement. Upon the written election of Parent, on behalf of the
Shareholder Group (a "Piggy-Back Request"), given within 10 Business Days
following the receipt by Parent of any such written notice (which election shall
specify the number of the Registrable Shares intended to be disposed of by the
Shareholder Group), the Company shall include in such registration statement (a
"Piggy-Back Registration"), subject to the provisions of this Section 5.2 and,
in the case of a registration on behalf of any of the Company's stockholders,
subject to the rights of such stockholders, such number of the Registrable
Shares as shall be set forth in such Piggy-Back Request. No registration
effected under this Section 5.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligations to
effect a Demand Registration required under Section 5.1.

          (b) In the event that the Company proposes to register Common Stock in
connection with an underwritten offering and a nationally recognized investment
banking firm selected by the Company to act as managing underwriter thereof
reasonably and in good faith shall have advised the Company, a member of the
Shareholder Group, or any other holder of Common Stock intending to offer Common
Stock in the offering (each, an "Other Holder") that, in its opinion, the
inclusion in the registration statement of some or all of the Registrable Shares
sought to be registered by the Shareholder Group would adversely affect the
price or success of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration
statement such number of shares of Common Stock as the Company is advised can be
sold in such offering without such an effect (the "Maximum Number") as follows
and in the following order of priority: (A) first, such number of shares of
Common Stock as the Company intended to be registered and sold by the Company if
such registration was initiated by the Company or, if such registration is on
behalf of any Other Holders, such number of shares of Common Stock as such Other
Holders intended to be registered and sold, and (B) second, if and to the extent
that the number of shares of Common Stock to be registered under clause (A) is
less than the Maximum Number, such number of shares of Common Stock as the
Shareholder Group, the Company (if such registration was not initiated by the
Company) and any Other Holders (or additional Other Holders) shall have intended
to register which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock to be
registered under clause (A), is less than or equal to the Maximum Number, on a
pro rata basis according to the total number of shares of Common Stock intended
to be registered by each such Person.

          Section 5.3 Termination of Registration Obligation. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time the Company shall
obtain a written opinion of legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent to
the effect that the Registrable Shares may be publicly offered for sale in the
United States by the Shareholder Group without restriction as to

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

manner of sale and amount of securities sold and without registration under the
Securities Act, the Company shall no longer be obligated to file or maintain a
registration statement with respect to the Registrable Shares pursuant to this
Agreement, unless at a later date Parent delivers to the Company an opinion of
counsel to Parent, which opinion is reasonably satisfactory in form and
substance to counsel to the Company, that registration is then required as a
result of a change in applicable law.

          Section 5.4 Registration Procedures. (a) In connection with each
registration statement prepared pursuant to this Article V, and in accordance
with the intended method or methods of distribution of the Registrable Shares as
described in such registration statement, the Company shall, as soon as
reasonably practicable and to the extent practicable:

          (i) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an
     appropriate registration form of the SEC and use reasonable efforts to
     cause such registration statement to become and remain effective promptly,
     which registration statement shall comply as to form in all materials
     respects with the requirements of the applicable form and include all
     financial statements required by such form to be filed therewith; provided
     that before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments
     or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to one counsel selected
     by Parent, on behalf of the Shareholder Group, draft copies of all such
     documents proposed to be filed at least ten Business Days (in the case of a
     Demand Registration) or seven days (in the case of any other registration)
     prior to such filing, which documents will be subject to the reasonable
     review and comment of Parent and its agents and representatives and the
     underwriters, if any, and the Company shall not file any registration
     statement in respect of a Demand Registration or amendment or supplement
     thereto to which Parent or the underwriters, if any, shall reasonably
     object;

          (ii) furnish without charge to the members of the Shareholder Group,
     and the underwriters, if any, at least one conformed copy of the
     registration statement and each post-effective amendment or supplement
     thereto (including all schedules and exhibits but excluding all documents
     incorporated or deemed incorporated therein by reference, unless requested
     in writing by Parent, on behalf of the Shareholder Group, or an
     underwriter) and such number of copies of the registration statement and
     each amendment or supplement thereto and the summary, preliminary, final,
     amended or supplemented prospectuses included in such registration
     statement as Parent or such underwriter may reasonably request in order to
     facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Shares
     being sold by the Shareholder Group (the Company hereby consents to the use
     in accordance with the U.S. securities laws of such registration statement
     (or post-effective amendment thereto) and each such prospectus (or
     preliminary prospectus or supplement thereto) by each member of the
     Shareholder Group and the underwriters, if any, in connection with the
     offering and sale of the Registrable Shares covered by such registration
     statement or prospectus);

          (iii) use reasonable best efforts to keep such registration statement
     effective for the earlier of (A) 60 days and (B) such time as all of the
     securities covered by the registration statement have been disposed (the
     "Effective Period"); prepare and file with the SEC such amendments,
     post-effective amendments and supplements to the

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

     registration statement and the prospectus as may be necessary to maintain
     the effectiveness of the registration for the Effective Period and to cause
     the prospectus (and any amendments or supplements thereto) to be filed;

          (iv) use reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the
     Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement under such other
     securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as
     are reasonably necessary, keep such registrations or qualifications in
     effect for so long as the registration statement remains in effect, and do
     any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary to
     enable the Shareholder Group or any underwriter to consummate the
     disposition of the Registrable Shares in such jurisdictions; provided,
     however, that in no event shall the Company be required to qualify to do
     business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it would not,
     but for the requirements of this subparagraph (iv), be required to be so
     qualified; to execute or file any general consent to service of process
     under the laws of any jurisdiction; to take any action that would subject
     it to service of process in suits other than those arising out of the offer
     and sale of the securities covered by the registration statement; or to
     subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise
     be obligated to do so, but for this paragraph (iv);

          (v) use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Shares to be
     registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or
     authorities as may be necessary to enable the Shareholder Group to
     consummate the disposition of the Registrable Shares;

          (vi) use reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares
     covered by such registration statement to be listed on the NYSE or on the
     principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, or
     if no similar securities are then so listed, cause all such Registrable
     Shares to be listed on a United States national securities exchange or
     secure designation of each such Registrable Share as a Nasdaq National
     Market "national market system security" within the meaning of Rule 11
     Aa2-1 of the SEC or secure National Association of Securities Dealers

     or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated
     therein by reference untrue in any material respect or which requires the
     making of any changes in the registration statement or post-effective
     amendment thereto or any prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto so
     that they will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
     to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to

     copies of all correspondence between the SEC and the Company, its counsel
     or auditors and all memoranda relating to discussions with the SEC or its
     staff with respect to the registration statement and permit Parent to do
     such investigation, with respect to information contained in or omitted
     from the registration statement as it deems reasonably necessary for the
     purpose of conducting customary due diligence with respect to the Company,
     provided any such investigation shall not interfere unreasonably with the
     Company's business;

          (x) use reasonable best efforts to provide and cause to be maintained
     a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Shares covered by
     such registration statement not later than the effective date of such
     registration statement;

          (xi) cooperate with the Shareholder Group and the managing underwriter
     or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
     of certificates representing such Registrable Shares to be sold under the
     registration statement in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository
     Trust Corporation not bearing any restrictive legends and not subject to
     any stop transfer order with any transfer agent, and cause such Registrable
     Shares to be issued in such denominations and registered in such names as
     the managing underwriters, if any, may request in writing or, if not an
     underwritten offering, in accordance with the instructions of the
     Shareholder Group, in each case at least two Business Days prior to any
     sale of Registrable Shares;

          (xii) in the case of an underwritten offering, use reasonable best
     efforts to enter into an underwriting agreement customary in form and scope
     for underwritten secondary offerings of the nature contemplated by the

          (xiii)  use reasonable best efforts to obtain an opinion from the
     Company's counsel and a "cold comfort" letter from the Company's
     independent public accountants (and, if necessary, any other independent
     certified public accountants of any Subsidiary of the Company or of any
     business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and
     financial data is, or is required to be, included in the registration

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

     statement) in customary form and covering such matters as are customarily
     covered by such opinions and "cold comfort" letters in connection with an
     offering of the nature contemplated by the applicable registration
     statement;

          (xiv) not later than the effective date of the applicable registration
     statement, provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable Shares;

     in the marketing of such Registrable Shares, including by making reasonably
     available its employees and personnel and by participating reasonably in
     road shows; and

          (xvi) use reasonable best efforts to provide to counsel to Parent and
     to the managing underwriters, if any, no later than the time of filing of
     any document which is to be incorporated by reference into the registration
     statement or prospectus (after the initial filing of such registration
     statement), copies of any such document.

          (b) In the event that the Company would be required, pursuant to
Section 5.4(a)(vii)(E) above, to notify Parent or the managing underwriter or
underwriters, if any, of the happening of any event specified therein, the
Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5.1(b) hereof, as promptly
as practicable, prepare and furnish to the Shareholder Group and to each such
underwriter a reasonable number of copies of a prospectus supplemented or
amended so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of Registrable Shares
that have been registered pursuant to this Agreement, such prospectus shall not
contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
Parent, on behalf of the Shareholder Group, agrees that, upon receipt of any
notice from the Company pursuant to Section 5.4(a)(vii)(E) hereof, Parent shall,
and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any sales or placement agent
or agents for the Registrable Shares and the underwriters, if any, to forthwith
discontinue disposition of the Registrable Shares until such Person shall have
received copies of such amended or supplemented prospectus and, if so directed
by the Company, to destroy or to deliver to the Company all copies, other than
permanent file copies, then in its possession of the prospectus (prior to such
amendment or supplement) covering such Registrable Shares as soon as practicable
after Parent's receipt of such notice.

          (c) Parent shall furnish to the Company in writing such information
regarding the Shareholder Group and its intended method of distribution of the
Registrable Shares as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in
writing, but only to the extent that such information is required in order for
the Company to comply with its obligations under all applicable securities and
other laws and to ensure that the prospectus relating to such Registrable Shares
conforms to the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder. Parent shall notify the Company as promptly as
practicable of any inaccuracy or change in information previously furnished by
Parent to the Company or of the occurrence of any event, in either case as a
result of which any prospectus relating to the Registrable Shares contains or
would contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading, and promptly furnish to the Company any additional information
required to correct and update any previously furnished information or required
so that such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.

          (d) (i) The members of the Shareholder Group agree not to effect any
public sale or distribution of any Registrable Shares, including any sale
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and not to effect any such public
sale or distribution of any other equity security of the Company or of any
security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security
of the Company (in each case, other than as part of such underwritten public
offering) during the 10 days prior to, and during the 60 day period (or such
longer period as Parent agrees with the underwriter of such offering) beginning
on, the consummation of any underwritten public offering of the Registrable
Shares covered by a registration statement referred to in Section 5.2 to the
extent the Shareholder Group's Registrable Shares are being sold thereunder.

          (ii) The Company hereby agrees that if it shall previously have
received a request pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2 for registration of
Registrable Shares in an underwritten offering, and if such previous
registration shall not have been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company shall not
sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, any Common Stock, or any other equity
security of the Company or any security convertible into or exchangeable for any
equity security of the Company until the earlier of (A) 60 days after the
effective date of such registration statement and (B) such time as all of the
Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement have been distributed,
other than (x) as part of such underwritten offering, (y) pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4 under the Securities Act or any
successor or similar form or (z) in one or more private transactions that would
not interfere with the method of distribution contemplated by such registration
statement.

          (e) In the case of any registration under Section 5.1 pursuant to an
underwritten offering, or in the case of a registration under Section 5.2 if the
Company has entered into an underwriting agreement in connection therewith, all
shares of Common Stock to be included in such registration shall be subject to
the applicable underwriting agreement and no Person may participate in such
registration unless such Person agrees to sell such Person's securities on the
basis provided therein and completes and executes all questionnaires,
indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents (other than powers of
attorney) which must be executed in connection therewith, and provides such
other information to the Company or the underwriter as may be reasonably
requested to register such Person's Common Stock.

          Section 5.5 Registration Expenses. The members of the Shareholder
Group shall bear all agent fees and commissions, underwriting discounts and
commissions, and fees and disbursements of their counsel and accountants, in
connection with any registration of any Registrable Shares pursuant to Section
5.1 or 5.2. The Company shall bear all other fees and expenses in connection
with any registration statement pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, including all
registration and filing fees, all printing costs, and all fees and expenses of
counsel and accountants for the Company.

          Section 5.6 Indemnification; Contribution. (a) The Company shall, and
it hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Shareholder
Group and its respective directors, officers, employees and controlling Persons,
if any, and each underwriter, its partners, directors, officers, employees and
controlling Persons, if any, in any offering or sale of the Registrable Shares,
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, actions or proceedings
(whether commenced or threatened) in respect thereof and expenses (including
reasonable fees of counsel) (collectively, "Claims") to which each such
indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such Claims (including any
amounts paid in settlement effected with the consent of the Company as provided
herein), or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, arise out of or are based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in any registration statement, or any preliminary or final prospectus
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document
incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of or are based upon any
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, and the Company shall,
and it hereby agrees to, reimburse periodically Parent or any such underwriter
for any legal or other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such Claims; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be liable to any such Person in any such case to the
extent that any such Claims arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such
registration statement, or preliminary or final prospectus, or amendment or
supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished to the Company by the Shareholder Group or any underwriter or
representative of the Shareholder Group expressly for use therein, or by the
Shareholder Group's failure to furnish the Company, upon request, with the
information with respect to the Shareholder Group, or any underwriter or
representative of the Shareholder Group, or the Shareholder Group's intended
method of distribution, that is the subject of the untrue statement or omission
or if the Company shall sustain the burden of proving that the Shareholder Group
or such underwriter sold securities to the Person alleging such Claims without
sending or giving, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy
of the applicable prospectus (excluding any documents incorporated by reference
therein) or of the applicable prospectus, as then amended or supplemented
(excluding any documents incorporated by reference therein), if the Company had
previously furnished copies thereof to the Shareholder Group or such
underwriter, and such prospectus corrected such untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration
statement.

          (b) The members of the Shareholder Group shall, and hereby agree,
severally and not jointly, to (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its
directors, officers, employees and controlling Persons, if any, and each
underwriter, its partners, officers, directors, employees and controlling
Persons, if any, in any offering or sale of Registrable Shares, against any
Claims to which each such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such
Claims (including any amounts paid in settlement as provided herein), or actions
or proceedings in respect thereof, arise out of or are based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such
registration statement, or any preliminary or final prospectus contained
therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by
reference therein, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case only to
the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or

                                      -20-

<PAGE>

alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by the Shareholder Group expressly for use
therein, and (ii) reimburse the Company for any legal or other out-of-pocket
expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or
defending any such Claim.

          (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section
5.6(a) or Section 5.6(b) of written notice of the commencement of any action or
proceeding for which indemnification under Section 5.6(a) or Section 5.6(b) may
be requested, such indemnified party shall notify such indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement of such action or proceeding; but the omission so to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it
may have to any indemnified party in respect of such action or proceeding
hereunder unless the indemnifying party was materially prejudiced by such
failure of the indemnified party to give such notice, and in no event shall such
omission relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability it may have to
such indemnified party. In case any such action or proceeding shall be brought
against any indemnified party and it shall notify an indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, such indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it shall determine, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party shall not be liable to such
indemnified party for any legal or any other expenses subsequently incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than
reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that (i) if the
indemnifying party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently
the action or proceeding within 20 days after receiving notice from such
indemnified party that the indemnified party believes it has failed to do so;
(ii) if such indemnified party who is a defendant in any action or proceeding
which is also brought against the indemnifying party reasonably shall have
concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such
indemnified party which are not available to the indemnifying party; or (iii) if
representation of both parties by the same counsel is otherwise inappropriate
under applicable standards of professional conduct, then, in any such case, the
indemnified party shall have the right to assume or continue its own defense as
set forth above (but with no more than one firm of counsel for all indemnified
parties in each jurisdiction) and the indemnifying party shall be liable for any
expenses therefor (including, without limitation, any such reasonable counsel's
fees). If the indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume
the defense of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of
more than one counsel for each indemnified party with respect to such claim. The
indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made
without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party, compromise or consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement agreement with respect to any action or proceeding in respect of
which indemnification is sought under Section 5.6(a) or Section 5.6(b) (whether
or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party thereto), unless
such compromise, consent or settlement includes an unconditional release of the
indemnified party from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation,
does not subject the indemnified party to any material injunctive relief or
other material equitable remedy and does not include a statement or admission of
fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of the indemnified
party.

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

          (d) The members of the Shareholder Group and the Company agree that
if, for any reason, the indemnification provisions contemplated by Sections
5.6(a) or 5.6(b) hereof are unavailable to or are insufficient to hold harmless
an indemnified party in respect of any Claims referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such Claims in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of, the indemnifying party, on the one
hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, with respect to such
offering of securities. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission. If, however, the allocation in the second preceding
sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative faults, but also
the relative benefits of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The parties hereto agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this
Section 5.6(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other
method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in the preceding sentences of this Section 5.6(d).
The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Claims
referred to above shall be deemed to include (subject to the limitations set
forth in Section 5.6(c) hereof) any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending
any such action, proceeding or claim. No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

          Section 5.7 Purchase Right. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, within five Business Days after receipt by
the Company of a Demand Request from Parent, the Company may elect, by delivery
of written notice (the "Purchase Notice") to Parent, on behalf of the
Shareholder Group, to purchase all or any of the Demand Shares specified therein
(the number of shares elected to be purchased, the "Purchase Shares") at a price
per share equal to the Market Value on the date of the Demand Request. Any
purchase of the Demand Shares shall be allocated pro rata among the members of
the Shareholder Group according to each member's portion of the Demand Shares.
Any Demand Shares that are not purchased pursuant to this Section 5.7, either
because the Company has elected not to purchase any Demand Shares (or fails to
make the required election within the relevant time period) or because the
Company elects to purchase some but not all of the Demand Shares, shall be
subject to the registration obligations of the Company under this Article V. In
the event that the Company elects to purchase some but not all of the Demand
Shares, Parent, on behalf of the Shareholder Group, may withdraw the Demand
Request with respect to the remaining shares, which shall not constitute a
Demand Request for the purposes of determining the number of Demand Requests to
which the Shareholder Group is entitled under Section 5.1(a).

          (b) Any purchase of Demand Shares by the Company pursuant to this
Section 5.7 shall be on a mutually determined closing date which shall not be
more than 20 Business Days

                                      -22-

<PAGE>

after the Purchase Notice is given. On the closing date, the members of the
Shareholder Group shall deliver the shares of Common Stock being sold and
documentation satisfactory to the Company evidencing the transfer of such Common
Stock. The purchase price shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to an account or accounts specified by Parent by notice given no
less than two Business Days prior to the closing date.

          (c) The Company may assign any of its purchase rights under this
Section 5.7 to any Subsidiary of the Company without the consent of the
Shareholder Group, provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve the
Company of any of its obligations thereunder.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                          EFFECTIVENESS AND TERMINATION

          Section 6.1 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall take effect
immediately upon the Closing and shall remain in effect until it is terminated
pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof.

          Section 6.2 Termination. Other than the termination provisions
applicable to particular Sections of this Agreement that are specifically
provided elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate upon the
earliest to occur of the following:

          (a) The twentieth anniversary of the Closing; or

          (b) Mutual written agreement of the Company and Parent, on behalf of
the Shareholder Group, at any time to terminate this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

          Section 7.1 Injunctive Relief. Each party hereto acknowledges that it
would be impossible to determine the amount of damages that would result from
any breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that the remedy at law
for any breach, or threatened breach, of any of such provisions would likely be
inadequate and, accordingly, agrees that each other party shall, in addition to
any other rights or remedies which it may have, be entitled to seek such
equitable and injunctive relief as may be available from any court of competent
jurisdiction to compel specific performance of, or restrain any party from
violating, any of such provisions. In connection with any action or proceeding
for injunctive relief, each party hereto hereby waives the claim or defense that
a remedy at law alone is adequate and agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by
law, to have each provision of this Agreement specifically enforced against it,
without the necessity of posting bond or other security against it, and consents
to the entry of injunctive relief against it enjoining or restraining any breach
or threatened breach of such provisions of this Agreement.

          Section 7.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the Company and
by Parent and the members of the Shareholder Group and their respective
successors and permitted assigns, and no such term or provision is for the
benefit of, or intended to create any obligations to, any other

                                      -23-

<PAGE>

Person, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. Except as
expressly provided in Sections 4.1(f), 4.2(c) and 5.7(c), neither this Agreement
nor any rights or obligations hereunder shall be assignable without the consent
of the other party.

          Section 7.3 Amendments; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended only by
an agreement in writing executed by the parties hereto. Either party may waive
in whole or in part any benefit or right provided to it under this Agreement,
such waiver being effective only if contained in a writing executed by the
waiving party. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of
any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any
right or remedy consequent upon breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any
such breach or of any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition, nor shall
any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any
manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it thereafter.

          Section 7.4 Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
all notices, requests, claims, demands, waivers and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when
delivered by hand, when delivered personally or by courier, three days after
being deposited in the U.S. mail (registered or certified mail, postage prepaid,
return receipt requested), or when received by facsimile transmission if

                              TII INDUSTRIES, INC.

                  TII  Industries,  Inc.,  a Delaware  corporation  ("Company"),
hereby  certifies  that,  for value  received,,  or his,  her or its  registered
assigns  ("Registered  Holder"),  is  entitled,  subject  to the terms set forth
below, to purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time during the
period  commencing  on  December  9, 2000 (  "Commencement  Date") and ending on
December 8, 2004,  ("Initial Number") shares of common stock, $.01 par value, of
the  Company  ("Common  Stock"),  at an initial  exercise  price of $2.79.  This
Warrant  is one of a series of  Warrants  of even date  herewith.  The number of
shares of Common  Stock  purchasable  upon  exercise  of this  Warrant,  and the
exercise  price per share,  each as adjusted  from time to time  pursuant to the
provisions of this Warrant,  are hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Shares"
and the "Exercise Price," respectively.

         1.       Exercise.
                  --------

                  (a) This Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder, in
whole or in part,  by the surrender of this Warrant (with the Notice of Exercise
Form attached hereto duly executed by such  Registered  Holder) at the principal
office of the  Company,  or at such other  office or agency as the  Company  may
designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful money of the United States,
of an amount  equal to the then  applicable  Exercise  Price  multiplied  by the
number of Warrant Shares then being purchased upon such exercise.

<PAGE>

                  (b) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been
effected  immediately  prior to the close of  business  on the day on which this
Warrant  shall have been  surrendered  to the Company as provided in  subsection
1(a)  above.  At such  time,  the  person or  persons in whose name or names any
certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided
in subsection 1(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of
record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.

                  (1) Within three (3)  business  days after the exercise of the
purchase right represented by this Warrant,  the Company at its expense will use
its best  efforts  to cause to be issued in the name of, and  delivered  to, the
Registered Holder, or, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to such other
individual  or  entity  as such  Holder  (upon  payment  by such  Holder  of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct:

                     (1) a certificate  or  certificates  for the number of full
shares of Warrant Shares to which such Registered  Holder shall be entitled upon
such exercise  plus, in lieu of any  fractional  share to which such  Registered
Holder would  otherwise be entitled,  cash in an amount  determined  pursuant to
Section 3 hereof, and

                     (2) in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or
Warrants  (dated the date  hereof) of like  tenor,  stating on the face or faces
thereof the number of shares  currently stated on the face of this Warrant minus
the number of such shares purchased by the Registered  Holder upon such exercise
as provided in  subsection  1(a) above  (prior to any  adjustments  made thereto
pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant).

2.       Adjustments.
         -----------

                  (1) Split,  Subdivision or Combination of Shares.  At any time
after June 8, 2000 and until this Warrant is exercised or redeemed or expires by
its terms,  if the  outstanding  shares of the  Company's  Common Stock shall be
subdivided  or split  into a greater  number of shares or a  dividend  in Common
Stock shall be paid in respect of Common  Stock,  the  Exercise  Price in effect
immediately  prior to such  subdivision  or at the record date of such  dividend
shall,  simultaneously  with the  effectiveness  of such subdivision or split or
immediately  after the record  date of such  dividend  (as the case may be),  be
proportionately  decreased.  If the outstanding  shares of Common Stock shall be
combined or reverse-split into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in
effect   immediately   prior  to  such   combination  or  reverse  split  shall,
simultaneously  with the  effectiveness of such combination or reverse split, be
proportionately  increased.  When any  adjustment  is required to be made in the
Exercise Price,  the number of Warrant Shares  purchasable  upon the exercise of
this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount
equal to the  number  of  shares  issuable  upon the  exercise  of this  Warrant
immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect
immediately  prior to such  adjustment,  by (ii) the  Exercise  Price in  effect
immediately after such adjustment.

                  (2) Reclassification, Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger.
At any time after June 8, 2000 and until this  Warrant is  exercised or redeemed
or expires by its terms,  if there is any  reclassification  of the Common Stock
(other than a change in par value or a subdivision  or  combination  as provided
for in subsection 2(a) above), or any reorganization, consolidation or merger of
the Company with or into another  entity (other than a merger or  reorganization
with respect to which the Company is the  continuing  corporation  and that does
not result in any reclassification of the Common Stock), or a transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company,  or the payment of a liquidating
distribution,  then,  as  part  of any  such  reorganization,  reclassification,
consolidation,  merger, sale or liquidating distribution, lawful

                                       2
<PAGE>

provision shall be made so that the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall have
the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise hereof (to the extent, if any,
still exercisable) the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or
property  that such  Registered  Holder would have been  entitled to receive if,
immediately prior to any such reorganization,  reclassification,  consolidation,
merger,  sale or liquidating  distribution,  as the case may be, such Registered
Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock that were then  purchasable
upon the  exercise  of this  Warrant,  provided,  that,  in the case of any such
liquidating  distribution,  the value of such property (as reasonably determined
by the Company's  Board of Directors)  exceeds the Exercise  Price.  In any such
case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors
of the Company)  shall be made in the  application  of the  provisions set forth
herein with respect to the rights and  interests  thereafter  of the  Registered
Holder of this  Warrant  such that the  provisions  set forth in this  Section 2
(including  provisions with respect to the Exercise  Price) shall  thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation to any shares of
stock or other securities or property  thereafter  deliverable upon the exercise
of this Warrant.

                  (3) Price Adjustment.  No adjustment in the per share Exercise
Price shall be  required  unless such  adjustment  would  require an increase or
decrease in the Exercise Price by at least $0.01;  provided,  however,  that any
adjustments  that by reason of this subsection are not required to be made shall
be carried  forward and taken into  account in any  subsequent  adjustment.  All
calculations  under this  Section 2 shall be made to the nearest  cent or to the
nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

                  (4) Price Reduction.  Notwithstanding  any other provision set
forth in this Warrant,  at any time and from time to time during the period that
this Warrant is  exercisable,  the Company in it sole  discretion may reduce the
Exercise Price or extend the period during which this Warrant is exercisable.

                  (5) No  Impairment.  The Company will not, by amendment of its
Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization,  transfer of assets,
consolidation,  merger,  dissolution,  issue or sale of  securities or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the terms to be observed or  performed  hereunder by the Company but will at all
times in good faith  assist in the carrying  out of all the  provisions  of this
Section  2 and in the  taking  of  all  such  actions  as  may be  necessary  or
appropriate  in  order  to  protect  against  impairment  of the  rights  of the
Registered Holder of this Warrant to adjustments in the Exercise Price.

                  (6)  Notice of  Adjustment.  Upon the  happening  of any event
requiring an  adjustment  of the Exercise  Price  hereunder,  the Company  shall
forthwith give written  notice thereof to the Registered  Holder of this Warrant
stating the adjusted  Exercise  Price and the adjusted  number of Warrant Shares
resulting  from such event and setting forth in reasonable  detail the method of
calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.

         3.  Fractional  Shares.  The  Company  shall not be  required  upon the
exercise  of this  Warrant  to issue any  fractional  shares,  but shall make an
adjustment  thereof  in cash on the basis of the  Closing  Price (as  defined in
Section 4) of the Company's Common Stock on the trading day immediately prior to
the date of exercise,  applicable,  or if there is no Closing Price, then on the
basis of the then fair market  value of the  Company's  Common Stock as shall be
reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.

         4.  Redemption.  Beginning on June 8, 2001 this Warrant may be redeemed
by the Company,  upon not less than 20 days' prior written notice to the holder,
at the  redemption  price

                                       3
<PAGE>

of $.01 per share for every  share of Common  Stock  purchasable  upon  exercise
hereof at the time of such redemption (the "Redemption  Price"),  if the closing
bid price of the Common Stock has been equal to or greater than 200% of the then
Exercise  Price on each of the 10  consecutive  trading days ending on the third
day prior to the day on which notice of  redemption  is given to the  Registered
Holder;  provided,  however,  that this Warrant may be redeemed  only if, on the
first day of the  aforementioned  10 consecutive  trading days and thereafter at
all  times  up to and  including  the  date on which  notice  is  given  and the
subsequent  date fixed for  redemption,  (i) this  Warrant is  exercisable  into
shares of Common Stock  registered  for resale under the Securities Act pursuant
to an effective and current  registration  statement,  and (ii) the Common Stock
subject to this Warrant is then listed on a national  securities  exchange,  the
Nasdaq  National  Market  or the  Nasdaq  SmallCap  Market  or quoted on the OTC
Bulletin  Board or similar  electronic  trading  facility.  For purposes of this
Section 4,  "closing  bid price"  shall mean the closing bid price of the Common
Stock as officially  reported by the principal  securities exchange on which the
Common  Stock is listed or admitted to trading,  or, if the Common  Stock is not
listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or if any such
exchange  on which  the  Common  Stock is listed  is not its  principal  trading
market,  the  closing  bid price as  furnished  by the NASD  through  the Nasdaq
National  Market or the  Nasdaq  SmallCap  Market,  or, if  applicable,  the OTC
Bulletin Board or similar electronic facility.  This Warrant may not be redeemed
unless each and every condition set forth in this Section 4 is satisfied. On and
after the date of  redemption  the  holder  shall have only the right to receive
$.01 per share of Common Stock  purchasable  upon exercise hereof at the time of
such redemption.

         5. Limitation on Sales.  Each holder of this Warrant  acknowledges that
this  Warrant  and the  Warrant  Shares  have  not  been  registered  under  the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended  ("Act"),  as of the date of issuance  hereof
and  agrees  not to sell,  pledge,  distribute,  offer  for  sale,  transfer  or
otherwise  dispose  of this  Warrant,  or any  Warrant  Shares  issued  upon its
exercise,  in the absence of (i) an effective  registration  statement under the
Act as to  this  Warrant  or such  Warrant  Shares,  as the  case  may  be,  and
registration or  qualification  of this Warrant or such Warrant  Shares,  as the
case may be,  under  any  applicable  Blue Sky or state  securities  law then in
effect or (ii) an opinion of counsel,  satisfactory  to the  Company,  that such
registration and qualification are not required.

                  In  addition,  this  Warrant  may  only  be  transferred  to a
transferee who certifies in writing to the Registered  Holder and to the Company
that such  transferee  is an  "accredited  investor"  within the meaning of Rule
501(a) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act.

                  Without  limiting the generality of the foregoing,  unless the
offering  and sale of the  Warrant  Shares  to be  issued  upon  the  particular
exercise of the Warrant shall have been  effectively  registered  under the Act,
the Company  shall be under no  obligation  to issue the shares  covered by such
exercise  unless  and  until  the  Registered  Holder  shall  have  executed  an
investment letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, including a
warranty at the time of such exercise that it is then an  "accredited  investor"
within the meaning of Rule 501(c)  promulgated  by the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission under the Act, is acquiring such shares for its own account, and will
not  transfer the Warrant  Shares  unless  pursuant to an effective  and current
registration  statement  under  the Act or an  exemption  from the  registration
requirements of the Act and any other  applicable  restrictions,  in which event
the Registered Holder shall be bound by the provisions of a legend or legends to
such effect  that shall be endorsed  upon the  certificate(s)  representing  the
Warrant  Shares issued  pursuant to such  exercise.  In such event,  the Warrant
Shares  issued  upon  exercise  hereof  shall  be  imprinted  with a  legend  in
substantially the following form:

                                       4
<PAGE>

                  This  security has been  acquired for  investment  and has not
                  been registered  under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
                  or applicable  state securities laws. This security may not be
                  sold, pledged or otherwise  transferred in the absence of such
                  registration or pursuant to an exemption  therefrom under said
                  Act  and  such  laws,  supported  by an  opinion  of  counsel,
                  reasonably  satisfactory to the Company and its counsel,  that
                  such registration is not required.

         6.  Registration  Rights of Warrant  Holder.  The Company has agreed to
register this Warrant and the Warrant  Shares for resale in accordance  with the
Subscription  Agreement and Investor Information  Statement entered into between
the Company and the Registered Holder.

         7. Warrant Solicitation and Warrant Solicitation Fee.

                  (1)  The  Company  has  engaged  M.H.  Meyerson  &  Co.,  Inc.
("Meyerson"), on a non-exclusive basis, as its agent for the solicitation of the
exercise of the Warrants.  The Company,  at its cost,  will (i) assist  Meyerson
with  respect to such  solicitation,  if  requested by Meyerson and (ii) provide
Meyerson lists of the Registered Holders,  and, to the extent known,  beneficial
owners of the Company's  Warrants.  In addition to the  conditions  set forth in
Section  7(b)  herein  below,  Meyerson  shall  accept  payment  of the  warrant
solicitation  fee  provided in Section  7(b) only if it has  provided  bona fide
services  in  connection  with the  exercise  of the  Warrants.  In  addition to
soliciting,  either orally or in writing,  the exercise of Warrants by a Warrant
holder, such services may also include disseminating information,  either orally
or in  writing,  to  Warrant  holders  about the  Company  or the market for the
Company's  securities,  or  assisting  in  the  processing  of the  exercise  of
Warrants.

                  (2) If, upon the exercise of any Warrant  (other than Warrants
issued by the  Company  upon  exercise  of the  Purchase  Options  issued by the
Company to  Meyerson  and/or  its  designees  in  connection  with the  original
offering), (i) the market price of the Common Stock is greater than the Exercise
Price, (ii) disclosure of compensation arrangements was made both at the time of
the original  offering  and at the time of  exercise,  (iii) the exercise of the
Warrant  was  solicited  by  Meyerson,  (iv)  the  Warrant  was  not  held  in a
discretionary  account,  and (v) the solicitation of the exercise of the Warrant
was not in violation of Regulation M (as such rule or any successor  rule may be
in effect as of such time of exercise) promulgated under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended,  then the Company shall pay from the proceeds  received
upon exercise of the Warrant(s),  a fee of 4% of the Exercise Price to Meyerson,
provided that Meyerson delivers to the Company a certificate that the conditions
set  forth  in the  preceding  clauses  (ii),  (iii),  (iv)  and (v)  have  been
satisfied.

         8. Notices of Record Date. In case:

                  (1) the  Company  shall  take a record of the  holders  of its
Common  Stock (or other stock or  securities  at the time  deliverable  upon the
exercise of this  Warrant)  for the  purpose of  entitling  or enabling  them to
receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe
for or purchase any shares of any class or any other  securities,  or to receive
any other right, or

                  (2)  of  any  capital   reorganization  of  the  Company,  any
reclassification  of the capital  stock of the  Company,  any  consolidation  or
merger  of  the  Company  with  or  into  another   corporation  (other  than  a
consolidation  or merger in which the Company is the surviving  entity),  or any
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  (3) of the voluntary or involuntary  dissolution,  liquidation
or winding-up of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will mail
or  cause  to be  mailed  to the  Registered  Holder  of this  Warrant  a notice
specifying,  as the case may be,  (i) the date on which a record  is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend,  distribution or right, and stating the amount
and character of such  dividend,  distribution  or right,  or (ii) the effective
date on which  such  reorganization,  reclassification,  consolidation,  merger,
transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time,
if any is to be fixed,  as of which the  holders  of record of Common  Stock (or
such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this
Warrant)  shall be entitled to exchange  their  shares of Common  Stock (or such
other stock or securities)  for securities or other  property  deliverable  upon
such  reorganization,   reclassification,   consolidation,   merger,   transfer,
dissolution,  liquidation  or  winding-up.  Such notice shall be mailed at least
fifteen  (15) days  prior to the  record  date or  effective  date for the event
specified  in such notice,  provided  that the failure to mail such notice shall
not affect the legality or validity of any such action.

         9. Reservation of Stock. The Company will at all times reserve and keep
available,  solely for issuance and delivery  upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such Warrant Shares and other stock,  securities  and property,  as from time to
time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

         10.  Replacement  of  Warrants.  Upon  receipt of  evidence  reasonably
satisfactory  to the Company of the loss,  theft,  destruction  or mutilation of
this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Company,  or (in the case of mutilation)  upon surrender and
cancellation  of this Warrant,  the Company will issue,  in lieu thereof,  a new
Warrant of like tenor.

         11. Transfers, etc.

                  (1) The Company (or an agent of the Company)  will  maintain a
register  containing the names and addresses of the  Registered  Holders of this
Warrant.  Any  Registered  Holder may change its, his or her address as shown on
the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.

                  (2) Until any  transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant
register,  the Company may treat the  Registered  Holder of this  Warrant as the
absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if and when this
Warrant  is  properly  assigned  in blank,  the  Company  may (but  shall not be
obligated  to) treat the  bearer  hereof as the  absolute  owner  hereof for all
purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

         12. No Rights as Stockholder.  Until the exercise of this Warrant,  the
Registered  Holder of this  Warrant  shall not have or  exercise  any  rights by
virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company.

         13.  Successors.  The rights  and  obligations  of the  parties to this
Warrant will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties  hereto and
their  respective  heirs,  successors,   assigns,   pledgees,   transferees  and
purchasers.  Without limiting the foregoing, the registration rights referred to
