$__________                                                   Irvine, California

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SSP Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("COMPANY"), promises to pay to ____________________ ("HOLDER"), or its
registered assigns, the principal sum of _________________ ($___________), or
such lesser amount as shall equal the outstanding principal amount hereof,
together with interest from the date of this Secured Convertible Promissory Note
(this "NOTE") on the unpaid principal balance at a rate equal to 10% per annum,
computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 or
366 days, as the case may be, compounded annually. Interest on the outstanding
principal balance of this Note shall be payable quarterly as described in
SECTION 2. Subject to SECTION 5, all unpaid principal, together with any then
unpaid and accrued interest and other amounts payable hereunder, shall be due

shall be payable in cash. Upon payment in full of all principal and interest
payable hereunder, this Note shall be surrendered to the Company for
cancellation.

         This Note is being issued as a replacement of a Note dated April 16,
2002, in the original principal amount of $______________ ("the ORIGINAL NOTE"),
the remaining balance of which has been (a) partially repaid by application of
principal to the purchase of Series A Preferred Stock issued on the same date as
this Note and (b) partially replaced with an additional promissory note issued
on the same date as this Note in the principal amount of $___________. This Note
is secured pursuant to a Securities Purchase, Registration Rights and Security
Agreement, dated as of the date of the Original Note, by and among the Company
and certain investors in the Company, including the Holder (the "AGREEMENT").

<PAGE>

This Note and the similar Secured Convertible Promissory Notes originally issued
to the other investors pursuant to the Agreement and reissued as of the date
hereof are collectively referred to as the "NOTES." Pursuant to the Agreement
and this Note, the investors also acquired Warrants to Purchase Common Stock
(the "WARRANTS").

         The following is a statement of the rights of the Holder and the
conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which the Holder, by the
acceptance of this Note, agrees:

share, of the Company.

         (b) "EVENT OF DEFAULT" means any of the events specified as such in
SECTION 4(A).

         (c) "HOLDER" means the person or entity specified in the introductory
paragraph of this Note or any transferee that is at the time the registered
holder of this Note. The Holder or any transferee is an "accredited investor" as
defined under U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise will qualify to allow

otherwise, unless such amounts are converted into Common Stock pursuant to the
terms set forth herein. Subject to SECTION 5, any accrued interest on this Note
that is due prior to the Note Maturity Date shall be payable in cash or, at the
option of the Company, in shares of Common Stock valued at the arithmetic mean

in cash.

3.       PREPAYMENT.

         This Note may not be prepaid without the prior written consent of the
Holder.

         financial statements heretofore or hereafter furnished by the Company
         in connection with the execution and delivery of this Note or the
         Agreement shall be false or misleading in any respect at the time made

         Holder or to cause its Transfer Agent to issue Conversion Shares, or,

         lawful, or (iii) fails to remove any restrictive legend or to cause its
         Transfer Agent to transfer any certificate or any Conversion Shares
         issued to the Holder as and when required by this Note, the Agreement
         or any other related agreement and such legend removal is otherwise
         lawful, and any such failure described in subclauses (i), (ii) or (iii)
         continues uncured for five Business Days.

                  (g) The Company fails to perform or observe, in any material
         respect, any other covenant, term, provision, condition, agreement or
         obligation of the Company under the Agreement, this Note or any related
         agreement, including but not limited to the payments of interest (other
         than quarterly interest payments), liquidated damages and late fees,
         provided the Holder has provided the Company notice and an opportunity
         to cure within ten trading days of any such event of default under this
         SECTION 4.1(G) and provided that the failure results in a Material
         Adverse Effect.

                  (h) Any governmental agency or any court of competent
         jurisdiction at the instance of any governmental agency assumes custody
         or control of the whole or any substantial portion of the properties or
         assets of the Company and the action is not dismissed within 60 days
         thereafter.

                  (i) Any money judgment, writ or warrant of attachment, or
         similar process in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate is entered or
         filed against the Company or any of its properties or other assets and
         remains unpaid, unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of 60 days
         or in any event later than five days prior to the date of any proposed
         sale thereunder.

                  (j) The Registration Statement is not declared effective by
         the SEC within 180 days from the Closing Date.

                  (k) The Company (or any subsidiary thereof if guaranteed by
         the Company) defaults (unless the default is the subject of a bona fide
         dispute and the Company has set aside adequate reserves) in any of its
         obligations under any of the other Notes or any mortgage, credit
         agreement or other facility, indenture agreement, factoring agreement
         or other instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there
         may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for borrowed money or
         money due under any long term leasing or factoring arrangement of the
         Company in an amount exceeding an aggregate of $500,000, unless waived,
         extended or cured within ten Business Days, whether the indebtedness
         now exists or if hereafter created and the default results in the
         indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the
         date on which it would otherwise become due and payable.

                  (l) The Common Stock is delisted from the Principal Market or
         suspended from trading on the Principal Market without resuming trading
         and/or being relisted or thereon or listed on another Principal Market
         or having the suspension lifted, in either case, for more than either
         five consecutive trading days or 15 trading days in the aggregate
         during any 12 month period (which need not be consecutive).

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

                  (m) The Company suspends the Holder's conversion rights for
         more than five trading days in the aggregate during any 12 month
         period; provided, however, that this Event of Default shall not be
         deemed to grant the Company any right to any such suspensions.

                  (n) If the effectiveness of the Registration Statement lapses
         for any reason or the Holder is not permitted to resell Registrable
         Securities under the Registration Statement, in either case, for more
         than 30 Business Days, in the aggregate, during any 12 month period.

                  (o) Except for the security interests granted under the
         Agreement and except as may arise under government contracts, the
         Company or any Guarantor grants or agrees to grant a security interest
         in any intellectual property of the Company or any subsidiary.

                  (p) The issuance of this Note is not approved by the Company's
         stockholders on or before January 31, 2004.

         4.2 ACCELERATION. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of
Default specified in SECTION 4.1(C) OR (D) with respect to the Company occurs
and is continuing, then the Holder may declare the outstanding principal and
accrued interest on this Note and all other payments payable hereunder to be
forthwith due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or
further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Company, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. If an Event of
Default specified in SECTION 4.1(C) OR (D) occurs and is continuing, then the
outstanding principal and accrued interest on this Note and all other payments
payable hereunder shall become and be immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Holder. The Holder by notice to the
Company may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would
not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default
have been cured or waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right thereto.

5.       CONVERSION.

         5.1 AUTOMATIC CONVERSION. Upon approval of the issuance of this Note by
the stockholders of the Company, the principal will automatically convert into
shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Rate (as defined below). Accrued
interest due may be converted, at the same rate, at the option of the Company.
The conversion will be deemed to have occurred as of the close of business on
the date of stockholder approval. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing
within one trading day after any automatic conversion, and will cause
certificates representing the Conversion Shares to be issued within two trading
days after automatic conversion, and will deliver those certificates to the
Holder by overnight courier immediately after receipt of the original of this
Note for cancellation.

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

         5.2 CONVERSION PROCEDURE IN THE EVENT OF AUTOMATIC CONVERSION. In the
event of automatic conversion, the outstanding principal (and accrued interest
due, if elected by the Company) under this Note will convert automatically
without any further action by the Company whether or not the Note is surrendered
to the Company or its transfer agent. The Company will not be obligated to issue
certificates evidencing the securities issuable upon automatic conversion of
this Note unless this Note is either delivered to the Company or its transfer
agent, or the Holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that this Note
has been mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement
reasonably satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss
incurred by it in connection with this Note. At its expense, the Company will,
as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to the Holder a
certificate for the number of shares to which the Holder will be entitled upon
conversion (bearing such legends as are required by applicable state and federal
securities laws in the opinion of counsel to the Company), together with a check
payable to the Holder for any cash amounts payable as described in SECTION 5.5.

         5.3 VOLUNTARY CONVERSION. At any time after the meeting of stockholders
at which the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note is voted
upon, and subject to the limitations set forth in SECTION 5.7, the Holder may,
at any time before this Note has been repaid in full, elect to convert all or
any portion of the outstanding principal (and accrued interest due, if elected
by the Holder) into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Rate.

         5.4 CONVERSION PROCEDURE IN THE EVENT OF VOLUNTARY CONVERSION.

                  (a) Each voluntary conversion of this Note shall be effected
         by the surrender of this Note at the principal office of the Company at
         any time during normal business hours, together with a written notice
         by the Holder stating that the Holder desires to convert the entire, or
         a specified increment of, principal of this Note into Common Stock.
         Each conversion of a Note will be deemed to have been effected as of
         the close of business on the date on which this Note has been
         surrendered and the notice has been received, and at that time, the
         rights of the Holder of this Note will cease and the person or persons
         in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Stock
         are to be issued upon conversion will be deemed to have become the
         Holder or Holders of record of the shares of Common Stock represented
         thereby.

                  (b) Within two trading days after a conversion has been
         effected, the Company will deliver to the converting holder:

                           (i) a certificate or certificates representing the
                  number of shares of Common Stock issuable by reason of
                  conversion in such name or names and such denomination or
                  denominations as the converting holder has specified; and

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

                           (ii) a replacement Note representing the principal
                  amount of this Note delivered to the Company in connection
                  with the conversion but which was not converted.

                  (c) The issuance of certificates for Common Stock upon
         conversion of this Note will be made without charge to the Holder of
         this Note for any tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the
         Company in connection with conversion and the related issuance of
         Common Stock. Upon conversion of any portion of this Note, the Company
         will take all actions as are necessary in order to ensure that the
         Common Stock issuable with respect to conversion will be validly
         issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

                  (d) The Company will not close its books against the transfer
         of this Note or of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon
         conversion of this Note in any manner which interferes with the timely
         conversion of this Note, and will at all times reserve for issuance the
         maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note is
         convertible.

         5.5 FRACTIONAL SHARES; INTEREST. No fractional shares shall be issued
upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of Company issuing any fractional shares
to Holder upon the conversion of this Note, Company shall pay to Holder an
amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Conversion Rate
applied to effect such conversion by the fraction of a share not issued pursuant
to the previous sentence. Upon conversion of this Note in full or the payment of
outstanding amounts specified in this Note, the Company shall be released from
all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

         5.6 CONVERSION RATE. The initial Conversion Rate shall be $0.70 per
share of Common Stock. The Conversion Rate shall be subject to adjustment as
described in SECTION 6.

         5.7 LIMITATION ON NUMBER OF SHARES ISSUABLE. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, unless the requisite stockholder vote has been obtained,
the Company shall not be required to issue to the Holder, upon conversion of the
Notes or exercise of the Warrants, in excess of, as of Closing Date, 19.9999% of
the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock multiplied by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the original principal amount of this Note and the
denominator of which is the aggregate original principal amount of all the Notes
at a price below the market price of the Common Stock on such date (the "MAXIMUM
AGGREGATE SHARE AMOUNT"), unless the Company first obtains stockholder approval
permitting such issuances in accordance with Nasdaq rules. If the number of
shares of Common Stock which would, notwithstanding the limitation set forth
herein, be issuable and sold to the Holder equals or exceeds the Maximum
Aggregate Share Amount, then, at any time thereafter, from time to time, at the
sole election of the Holder, in whole or in part, the Company shall honor the
conversion of this Note by the Holder at the lowest possible conversion price
(but not lower than the Conversion Rate) which would permit such conversion
without violating Nasdaq Rule 4350(i).

                                      -7-

<PAGE>

6.       ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION RATE.

         The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

         6.1 ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION RATE UPON SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF
COMMON STOCK. If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this Note
subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise)
one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
number of shares, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such
subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Common
Stock obtainable upon conversion of this Note will be proportionately increased.
If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this Note combines (by
combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the
Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such combination will be
proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable
upon conversion of this Note will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment
under this SECTION 6.4 shall become effective at the close of business on the
date the subdivision or combination becomes effective

         6.2 DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. If the Company declares or makes any
dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets)
to holders of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including,
without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities,
property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate
rearrangement or other similar transaction) (a "DISTRIBUTION"), at any time
after the issuance of this Note, then, in each such case:

                  (a) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the
         close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of
         holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be
         reduced, effective as of the close of business on such record date, to
         a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Rate by a fraction of
         which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common
         Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date minus
         the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the
         Company's Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock,
         and (B) the denominator shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common
         Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and

                  (b) the number of Conversion Shares obtainable upon conversion
         of this Note shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the
         number of shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the
         close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of
         holders of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied
         by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately
         preceding clause (a).

         6.3 CERTAIN EVENTS. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
provisions of this SECTION 6 but not expressly provided for by such provisions
(including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights,
phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company's
Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Rate
and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon conversion of this Note

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

so as to protect the rights of the holders of the Notes; provided that no such
adjustment will increase the Conversion Rate or decrease the number of shares of
Common Stock obtainable as otherwise determined pursuant to this SECTION 6.

         6.4 NOTICES.

                  (a) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Rate,
         the Company will give written notice thereof to the holder of this
         Note, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the
         calculation of such adjustment.

                  (b) The Company will give written notice to the holder of this
         Note at least 20 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its
         books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or
         distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata
         subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (C) for determining
         rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change, dissolution or
         liquidation, provided that such information shall be made known to the
         public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to
         such holder.

                  (c) The Company will also give written notice to the holder of
         this Note at least 20 days prior to the date on which any Organic
         Change, dissolution or liquidation will take place, provided that such
         information shall be made known to the public prior to or in
         conjunction with such notice being provided to such holder.

7.       PRIORITY; AGREEMENTS RELATING TO COLLATERAL.

         7.1 PRIORITY OF SECURITY INTEREST. The initial Holder and any
subsequent Holder of this Note, by accepting this Note, acknowledges and agrees
that the Holder's security interest in the Collateral is (a) a pro rata security
interest (as described in the Agreement) with the holders of other similar Notes
issued by the Company pursuant to the Agreement and (b) is junior in priority to
the security interests of the holders of any Senior Debt (as defined below).

         7.2 SENIOR DEBT. "SENIOR DEBT" means an amount owing by the Company,
including principal, interest (including any interest accruing during any
bankruptcy proceeding), premium, if any, fees (including, without limitation,
any commitment, agency, facility, structuring, restructuring or other fee),
costs, expenses and indemnities, from time to time for indebtedness for borrowed
money under notes, debentures or other evidence of indebtedness issued to, or
agreements with, a commercial bank or similar financial institution whose
principal business is the lending of money solely for the purpose of obtaining
working or permanent capital for the Company, which amount and repayment terms
thereof have been designated by the Company in writing as of the date hereof to
the Holder as "SENIOR DEBT." The Holder hereby waives any and all notice of
renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Senior Debt, present or future, and
agrees and consents that without notice to or consent of the Holder: (a) the
obligations and liabilities of the Company or any other party or parties under
the Senior Debt may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed,
refinanced, replaced, terminated, decreased or released; (b) the holders of

                                      -9-

<PAGE>

Senior Debt and their representatives may exercise or refrain from exercising
any right, remedy or power granted by any document creating or evidencing the
Senior Debt or at law, in equity, or otherwise, with respect to the Senior Debt
or in connection with any collateral security or lien (legal or equitable) held,
given or intended to be given therefor (including, without limitation, the right
to perfect any lien or security interest created in connection therewith); and
(c) any and all collateral security and/or liens (legal or equitable) at any
time, present or future, held, given or intended to be given for the Senior
Debt, and any rights or remedies of the holders of Senior Debt and their
representatives in respect thereof, may, from time to time, in whole or in part,
be surrendered, released, perfected, unperfected or waived by the holders of
Senior Debt and their representatives.

         7.3 EXECUTION OF SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT. By accepting this Note, the
Holder agrees that, upon the request of any holder of Senior Debt, it will
execute and deliver a subordination agreement for the benefit of such holder of
Senior Debt (in form reasonably acceptable to the Holder and its counsel)
reflecting the terms of this SECTION 7; provided, however that the foregoing
shall not require the Holder to execute or deliver any agreement which provides
for additional terms of subordination or otherwise adversely modifies (whether
by change, addition or deletion) the terms hereof.

         7.4 ADDITIONAL ENCUMBRANCES. The Company shall not, without the prior
written consent of the Representative of the Investors and the holders of a
majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, create or suffer to exist
any lien or security interest on or with respect to the Collateral, except liens
or security interests (a) in favor of holders of Senior Debt or Notes of the
Company, (b) securing taxes, assessments or governmental charges or levies, or
(iii) that arise in the ordinary course of business and not created in
connection with the borrowing of money or the obtaining of credit.

         7.5 OBTAINING INSURANCE. The Company shall in good faith seek and
evaluate insurance products relative to the intellectual property of the
Company. If the terms, costs and availability of funds provided by such
insurance products are reasonably acceptable to the Company, the Representative
of the Investors and the holders of a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Notes, such insurance products shall be obtained at the Company's
sole cost and expense, provided that the coverage lasts through the term of this
Note.

8.       COSTS.

         In addition to all unpaid principal and accrued interest due and
payable hereunder, the Company agrees to pay to the Holder upon demand all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred (including, without limitation reasonable
fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with (a) the enforcement of the
terms of or protection of the Holder's rights under this Note, (b) any waiver
requested by the Company of the Holder's rights under this Note, (c) any
proposed amendment, modification, refinancing, restructuring or work-out of the
credit evidenced hereby and (d) collecting any obligations under this Note
through reorganization, bankruptcy or any other proceeding.

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

9.       USURY.

         It is the express intent of the Company and the Holder that the payment
of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of and accrued
interest under this Note be exempt from the application of any applicable usury
or similar laws under any state, federal or foreign jurisdiction. The Company
hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection
or defense which the Company may now or hereafter have to the payment when due
of any and all Note principal or accrued interest arising out of or relating to
a claim of usury or similar laws and the Company hereby agrees that neither it
nor any of its affiliates shall in the future bring, commence, maintain,
prosecute or voluntarily aid in any action at law, proceeding in equity or other
legal proceeding against the Holder based on a claim that the Company's payment
obligations under this Note violate the usury or similar laws of any state,
federal or foreign jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any interest
is paid on this Note that is deemed to be in excess of the then legal maximum
rate, then that portion of the interest payment representing an amount in excess
of the then legal maximum rate shall be deemed a payment of principal and
applied against the principal of this Note.

10.      UNCONDITIONAL OBLIGATION: FEES, WAIVERS, OTHER.

         The Company and the Holder (by acceptance of this Note) agree as
follows:

                  (a) No forbearance, indulgence, delay or failure to exercise
         any right or remedy with respect to this Note shall operate as a
         waiver, nor as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or
         partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other or further
         exercise thereof.

                  (b) The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment
         for payment, notice of nonpayment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice
         of protest, bringing of suit, and diligence in taking any action to
         collect amounts called for hereunder, and shall be directly and
         primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing
         hereon, regardless of and without any notice, diligence, act or
         omission with respect to the collection of any amount called for
         hereunder or in connection with any right at any and all times which
         Holder had or is existing hereunder.

11.      NOTICES.

         All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in
writing and delivered, mailed or transmitted by any standard form of
telecommunication. Notices and other communications to the Holder shall be
directed to it at its address noted on the Company's records; and notices and
other communications to the Company shall be directed to it at its address at
SSP Solutions, Inc., 17861 Cartwright Road, Irvine, California 92614; or, as to
each party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a
written notice to the other party pursuant hereto. Any notice or other
communication shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) when sent by Federal
Express or other overnight delivery service of recognized standing, on the
business day following deposit with such service; (b) when mailed by registered
or certified mail, first class postage prepaid and addressed as aforesaid
through the United States Postal Service, upon receipt; (c) when delivered by
hand, upon delivery; and (d) when telecopied, upon confirmation of receipt. Any
party hereto may by notice so given change its address for future notice
hereunder.

                                      -11-

12.      PAYMENT.

         Except with respect to payments in kind that are permitted hereunder,
payment shall be made in lawful tender of the United States.

13.      NO THIRD PARTY RIGHTS.

         Nothing expressed in or to be implied from this Note is intended to
give, or shall be construed to give, any person, other than the parties hereto
and their permitted successors and assigns, any benefit or legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or by virtue of this Note.

14.      REPLACEMENT OF NOTE.

         Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note (or any security issued on
conversion of this Note), the Company will issue a replacement instrument, at
the Holder's expense, representing such securities in lieu of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated instrument, provided that the Holder agrees to indemnify
the Company for any losses incurred by the Company with respect to such
instrument.

15.      AMENDMENT.

         Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Note nor any term
hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written
instrument referencing this Note and signed by the Company and the Holder. This
Note is one of a series of similar Notes issued by the Company. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Note may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated by a
written instrument referencing this Note and signed by the Company, the
Representative of the Investors and the holders of a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Notes of the Company. Any such amendment, waiver,
discharge or termination effected in accordance with the preceding sentence
shall be binding upon each holder of any Notes of the Company outstanding. The
Holder acknowledges that by the operation of this paragraph, the holders of a
majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes will have the right
and power to diminish or eliminate all rights of the Holder under this Note.

16.      GOVERNING LAW.

         This Note and all actions arising out of or in connection with this
Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
United States of America and the State of California, without application of
conflicts of law principles. In any action, dispute, litigation or other
proceeding concerning this Note (including arbitration), exclusive jurisdiction
shall be with the courts of California, with the County of Orange being the sole
venue for the bringing of the action or proceeding.

                                      -12-

17.      WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

         BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND
EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY
(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, AND
UNDERSTANDING THEY ARE WAIVING A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE
ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE
ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED
WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO, THIS NOTE, THE AGREEMENT AND/OR ANY RELATED
AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS COMPLETED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THAT ACT.

                               SSP SOLUTIONS, INC.

                        WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

Warrant No.: A-3-___                                         of Shares: _______
Date of Issuance: November 19, 2003

         SSP SOLUTIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), hereby
certifies that, for $10.00 and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, _________________, the
registered holder hereof or his permitted assigns, is entitled, subject to the
terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company upon surrender of this
Warrant, at any time or times on or after the Exercisability Date (as defined

3.       EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

         3.1 EXERCISE; DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES. This Warrant may be exercised,
at the option of the holder, at any time and from time to time (a) on or after
the Exercisability Date and (b) prior to the end of business on the Expiration
Date, for all or any part of the Warrant Shares. This Warrant may be exercised
by delivering the payment of the Warrant Exercise Price for the number of
Warrant Shares being purchased and concurrently surrendering this Warrant to the
Company at its principal office (the "DESIGNATED OFFICE"), together with the
Subscription Form attached hereto duly completed and signed. The Warrant Shares
purchased under this Warrant shall be and are deemed to be issued to the holder
as the record owner of those shares as of the close of business on the date on
which this Warrant was surrendered and payment made therefor. Certificates for
Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the holder within three
Business Days after this Warrant has been exercised, and, in case of a purchase
of less than all of the Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this
Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant and, within three Business Days,
shall execute and deliver to the holder a new Warrant of like tenor for the
balance of the Warrant Shares. Each stock certificate so delivered shall be

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

registered in the name of the holder or, subject to compliance with applicable
laws, such other name as shall be designated by the holder.

         3.2 PAYMENT OF WARRANT PRICE. Payment of the Warrant Exercise Price may
be made, at the option of the holder (i) by certified or official bank check,
(ii) by wire transfer, or (iii) by "Cashless Exercise" as described in SECTION
3.4.

         3.3 NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to
be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of
Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up or down to
the nearest whole number.

         3.4 CASHLESS EXERCISE. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, the holder of this Warrant may, at its election exercised in his sole
discretion at any time after 12 months from the date of this Warrant, and only
if a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares is NOT
then effective, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making
the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such
exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive
upon such exercise the "net number" of shares of Common Stock determined
according to the following formula (a "CASHLESS EXERCISE"):

         Net Number = (A X B) - (A X C)
                      -----------------
                              B

                  For purposes of the foregoing formula:

                           A = the total number of shares with respect to which
                           this Warrant is then being exercised.

                           B = the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the
                           date immediately preceding the date of the
                           subscription notice.

                           C = the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect for the
                           applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such
                           exercise.

3.5      EXERCISE RESTRICTIONS.

                  3.5.1 BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP LIMITATION. Notwithstanding
         anything herein to the contrary, the holder may not exercise, and the
         Company may not cause the holder to exercise, this Warrant to the
         extent such exercise would result in the holder, together with any
         affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance
         with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated
         thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding
         shares of Common Stock. Since the holder will not be obligated to
         report to the Company the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold
         at the time of an exercise hereunder, unless the exercise at issue
         would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of
         4.99% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to
         any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the holder or an

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

         affiliate thereof, the holder shall have the authority and obligation
         to determine whether the restriction contained in this SECTION 3.5 will
         limit any particular exercise hereunder and to the extent that the
         holder determines that the limitation contained in this SECTION 3.5
         applies, the determination of the amount of this Warrant is exercisable
         shall be the responsibility and obligation of the holder. If the holder
         has delivered a Subscription Form that, without regard to any other
         shares that the holder or its affiliates may beneficially own, would
         result in the issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the
         Company shall notify the holder of this fact and shall honor the
         exercise for the maximum amount permitted to be exercised on the
         exercise date in accordance with this SECTION 3.5. If this Warrant was
         not surrendered on the exercise date, the Company shall provide the
         holder written notice of the amount actually exercised. If the holder
         surrendered this Warrant on the exercise date, the Company shall, at
         the option of the holder, either retain any portion of the Warrant
         Exercise Price tendered for exercise in excess of the permitted amount
         hereunder for future exercises or return such excess portion of the
         Warrant Exercise Price to the holder. The provisions of this SECTION
         3.5 may be waived by the holder (but only as to itself and not to any
         other holder of Preferred Shares or Warrants) in whole or in part upon
         not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company. Other holders of
         Preferred Shares and Warrants shall be unaffected by any such waiver.

                  3.5.2 LIMITATION ON NUMBER OF SHARES ISSUABLE. Notwithstanding
         anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to
         issue to the holder, upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and
         exercise of the Warrants, in excess of 19.9999% of the number of shares
         of Common Stock of the Company outstanding as of the Closing Date
         multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the maximum number
         of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and
         conversion of all Preferred Shares held by the holder and the
         denominator of which is the aggregate maximum number of shares of
         Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all Warrants and conversion of
         all Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Agreement PLUS the
         aggregate number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issued or issuable
         to all holders of Warrants (the "MAXIMUM AGGREGATE SHARE AMOUNT"),
         unless the Company first obtains stockholder approval permitting such
         issuances in accordance with Nasdaq rules. If the number of shares of
         Common Stock which would, notwithstanding the limitation set forth
         herein, be issuable and sold to the holder equals or exceeds the
         Maximum Aggregate Share Amount, then, at any time thereafter, from time
         to time, at the sole election of the holder, in whole or in part, the
         Company shall honor the exercise of this Warrant by the holder at the
         lowest possible exercise price (but not below the Warrant Exercise
         Price) which would permit such exercise without violating Nasdaq Rule
         4350(i).

         3.6 COMPANY'S RIGHT TO REDEEM WARRANT.

                  3.6.1 RIGHT TO REDEEM. Commencing on the Warrant Redemption
         Trigger Date and continuing until the Expiration Date, and subject to
         the prior satisfaction of the conditions precedent in SECTION 3.6.2,
         the Company shall have the right, upon delivery of written notice to
         the holder ("REDEMPTION NOTICE"), to redeem any then unexercised
         portion of this Warrant (a "WARRANT REDEMPTION"). If this Warrant is
         not exercised in full by the holder within five Business Days after the
         Redemption Notice is given, the Warrant Redemption may be exercised by

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

         the Company by delivering the payment of the Warrant Redemption Price
         for the number of Warrant Shares being redeemed to the holder of his
         Warrant at the address of the holder provided to the Company, together
         with the Redemption Form attached hereto as EXHIBIT C, duly completed
         and signed. The Warrant Shares redeemed under this SECTION 3.6.1 shall
         be and are deemed to be redeemed by the Company as of the close of
         business on the latest date on which the Redemption Form is delivered
         to the holder (which must be at least five Business Days after the
         Redemption Notice is given) and payment made therefor. Upon receipt of
         the payment and the duly completed and signed Redemption Form, the
         holder shall deliver this Warrant to the Company within three Business
         Days thereafter, and, in the case of a redemption of less than all of
         this Warrant at the time of redemption, the Company shall, within three
         Business Days, execute and deliver to the holder a new Warrant of like
         tenor for the balance of the Warrant Shares.

                  3.6.2 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO COMPANY'S REDEMPTION RIGHTS. The
         Company's right to redeem this Warrant as described above is subject to
         the satisfaction of the following conditions:

                           3.6.2.1 MINIMUM AVERAGE DOLLAR TRADING VOLUME. With
                  respect to any attempted exercise by the Company of the
                  Warrant Redemption, during the 30 trading days immediately
                  preceding the date on which the Redemption Form and payment
                  are delivered to the holder (the "REDEMPTION LOOK-BACK
                  PERIOD") the average dollar trading volume for the lowest 20
                  dollar volume trading days is at least $400,000.

                           3.6.2.2 MINIMUM CLOSING PRICE. The Closing Sale Price
                  of the Company's Common Stock is at least $3.00 for ten
                  consecutive trading days immediately preceding the last day of
                  the Redemption Look-Back Period.

                           3.6.2.3 NO EXERCISE BLOCKS. The provisions of SECTION
                  3.5 shall not then be operative to prevent the holder of this
                  Warrant from exercising this Warrant.

4.       COVENANTS AS TO COMMON STOCK.

         The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

         (a) This Warrant is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or
replacement of this Warrant will upon issuance be, duly authorized and validly
issued.

         (b) All Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect
to the issue thereof.

         (c) During the period within which the rights represented by this
Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and
reserved at least 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide
for the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par
value of said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable
Warrant Exercise Price.

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

         (d) The Company shall promptly secure the listing of the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant upon each national
securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of
Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance upon
exercise of this Warrant) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of
Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all shares of Common Stock from
time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall
so list on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, as
the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital
stock of the Company issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long
as any shares of the same class shall be listed on such national securities
exchange or automated quotation system.

         (e) 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 by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the
taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this
Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant
against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of
this Warrant.

         (f) This Warrant will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the
Company by
merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets.

5.       TAXES.

         The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with
respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this
Warrant.

6.       WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER.

         Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no holder, as such,
of this Warrant shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the
holder of shares of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in
this Warrant be construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the
rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold
consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock,
reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise),
receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or
otherwise, prior to the issuance to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant
Shares which it is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this
Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as
imposing any liabilities on such holder to purchase any securities (upon
exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company,
whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company. Notwithstanding this SECTION 6, the Company will provide the holder of
this Warrant with copies of the same notices and other information given to the
stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof
to the stockholders.

                                      -7-

7.       REPRESENTATIONS OF HOLDER.

         The holder of this Warrant, by the acceptance hereof, represents that
it is acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares for his own account and not
with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or
distribution of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, except pursuant to sales
registered or exempted under the Securities Act. The holder of this Warrant
further represents, by acceptance hereof, that, as of this date, the holder is
an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation
D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities
Act. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the holder shall, if requested by the
Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company,
representations concerning the Warrant Shares in substantially the form of the
first sentence of this SECTION 7.

8.       OWNERSHIP AND TRANSFER.

         (a) The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or
such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the
holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record
the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued,
as well as the name and address of each transferee. The Company may treat the
person in whose name any Warrant is registered on the register as the owner and
holder thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, but
in all events recognizing any transfers made in accordance with the terms of
this Warrant.

         (b) This Warrant and the rights granted hereunder shall be assignable
by the holder hereof without the consent of the Company.

         (c) The Company is obligated to register the Warrant Shares for resale
under the Securities Act pursuant to the Agreement and the initial holder of
this Warrant (and certain assignees thereof) is entitled to the registration
rights in respect of the Warrant Shares as set forth in the Agreement.

9.       ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES.

         The Warrant Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted from time to time as
follows:

         9.1 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES UPON
ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK. If and whenever on or after the date of issuance of
this Warrant, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold,
any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common
Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding Excluded
Securities, as that term is defined in the Company's Certificate of Designation
creating its Series A Preferred Stock) for a consideration per share less than a
price equal to the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
issuance or sale (a "DILUTIVE ISSUANCE"), then effective immediately upon the
Dilutive Issuance, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted so as to equal

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

an amount determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by the following
fraction:

                                                      N0 + N1
                                                     ---------
                                                      N0 + N2

                           where:

                           N0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
         immediately prior to the issuance, sale or deemed issuance or sale of
         such additional shares of Common Stock in such Dilutive Issuance
         (without taking into account any shares of Common Stock issuable upon
         conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities or
         Purchase Rights, including the Preferred Shares and Warrants);

                           N1 = the number of shares of Common Stock which the
         aggregate consideration, if any, received or receivable by the Company
         for the total number of such additional shares of Common Stock so
         issued, sold or deemed issued or sold in such Dilutive Issuance (which,
         in the case of a deemed issuance or sale, shall be calculated in
         accordance with SECTIONS 9.2 and 9.3) would purchase at the Conversion
         Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance; and

                           N2 = the number of such additional shares of Common
         Stock so issued, sold or deemed issued or sold in such Dilutive
         Issuance.

         Upon each such adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable
upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted to the number of shares
determined by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon
exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the
product thereof by the Warrant Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

         9.2 DEEMED ISSUANCE IN CERTAIN EVENTS. For purposes of determining the
adjusted Warrant Exercise Price under SECTION 9.1, the following shall be
applicable:

                  9.2.1 ISSUANCE OF OPTIONS. If the Company in any manner grants
         any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of
         Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon
         conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities issuable
         upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Warrant Exercise
         Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be
         outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time
         of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For
         purposes of this SECTION 9.2.1, the "lowest price per share for which
         one share of Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of such Options or
         upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities"
         shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if
         any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one
         share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon

                                      -9-

<PAGE>

         exercise of the Option and upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any
         Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further
         adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual
         issuance of such Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon
         the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common
         Stock upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible
         Securities.

                  9.2.2 ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If the Company in
         any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest
         price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon
         such conversion, exchange or exercise thereof is less than the Warrant
         Exercise Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be
         outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time
         of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price
         per share. For the purposes of this SECTION 9.2.2, the "lowest price
         per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon such
         conversion, exchange or exercise" shall be equal to the sum of the
         lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the
         Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or
         sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exchange or
         exercise of such Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the
         Warrant Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such
         Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible
         Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible
         Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of
         the Warrant Exercise Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other
         provisions of this SECTION 9.2, no further adjustment of the Warrant
         Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.

                  9.2.3 CHANGE IN OPTION PRICE OR RATE OF CONVERSION. If the
         purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional
         consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion or exchange
         of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible
         Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
         changes at any time, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect at the time
         of such change shall be adjusted to the Warrant Exercise Price which
         would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible
         Securities provided for such changed purchase price, additional
         consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the
         time initially granted, issued or sold and the number of shares of
         Common Stock acquirable hereunder shall be correspondingly readjusted.
         For purposes of this SECTION 9.2.3, if the terms of any Option or
         Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the date of issuance of
         this Warrant are changed in the manner described in the immediately
         preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the
         Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange
         thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such
         change. No adjustment shall be made if such adjustment would result in
         an increase of the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect.

         9.3 EFFECT ON WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. For purposes of
determining the adjusted Warrant Exercise Price under SECTIONS 9.2 AND 9.3, the
following shall be applicable:

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

                  9.3.1 CALCULATION OF CONSIDERATION RECEIVED. In case any
         Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other
         securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated
         transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such
         Options by the parties thereto, the Options will be deemed to have been
         issued for a consideration of $.01. If any Common Stock, Options or
         Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued
         or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to
         be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any Common
         Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a
         consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration
         received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration,
         except where such consideration consists of marketable securities, in
         which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be
         the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the date of receipt of
         such securities. If any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities
         are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with
         any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of
         consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such
         portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as
         is attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible
         Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration
         other than cash or securities will be determined jointly by the Company
         and the holders of Warrants representing at least two-thirds of the
         shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Warrants then
         outstanding. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten
         days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the
         "VALUATION EVENT"), the fair value of such consideration will be
         determined within five Business Days after the tenth day following the
         Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected
         by the Company and the holders of Warrants representing at least
         two-thirds of the shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of
         the Warrants then outstanding. The determination of such appraiser
         shall be final and binding upon all parties absent error and the fees
         and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

                  9.3.2 RECORD DATE. If the Company takes a record of the
         holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (a) to
         receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock,
         Options or in Convertible Securities or (b) to subscribe for or
         purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such
         record date will 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.

         9.4 ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE UPON SUBDIVISION OR
COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK. If the Company at any time after the date of
issuance of this Warrant subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and
the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant
will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time after the date of
issuance of this Warrant combines (by combination, reverse stock split or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares
of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately
decreased. Any adjustment under this SECTION 9.4 shall become effective at the
close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective

         9.5 DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. If the Company declares or makes any
dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets)
to holders of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including,
without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities,
property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate
rearrangement or other similar transaction) (a "Distribution"), at any time
after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case:

         (a) the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close
of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common
Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the
close of business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such
Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the
Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding
such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good
faith by the Company's Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common
Stock, and (B) the denominator shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common
Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such record date; and

         (b) either (A) the number of Warrant Shares obtainable upon exercise of
this Warrant shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of
shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on
the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled
to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set
forth in the immediately preceding clause (a), or (B) if the Distribution is of
common stock of a company whose common stock is traded on a national securities
exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the holder of this
Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to purchase Common Stock, the terms
of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant
shall be exercisable into the amount of the assets that would have been payable
to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to the Distribution had the holder
exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an
exercise price equal to the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant
was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the
immediately preceding clause (a).

         9.6 CERTAIN EVENTS. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
provisions of this SECTION 9 but not expressly provided for by such provisions
(including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights,
phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company's
Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Warrant Exercise
Price and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this
Warrant so as to protect the rights of the holders of the Warrants; provided
that no such adjustment will increase the Warrant Exercise Price or decrease the
number of shares of Common Stock obtainable as otherwise determined pursuant to
this SECTION 9.

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

         9.7 NOTICES.

         (a) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price, the
Company will give written notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, setting
forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment.

         (b) The Company will give written notice to the holder of this Warrant
at least 20 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or
takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common
Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common
Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change
(as defined below), dissolution or liquidation, provided that such information
shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice
being provided to such holder.

         (c) The Company will also give written notice to the holder of this
Warrant at least 20 days prior to the date on which any Organic Change,
dissolution or liquidation will take place, provided that such information shall
be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being
provided to such holder.

10.      PURCHASE RIGHTS; REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION,
MERGER OR SALE.

         (a) In addition to any adjustments pursuant to SECTION 9, if at any
time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or
rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the
record holders of any class of Common Stock (the "PURCHASE RIGHTS"), then the
holder of this Warrant will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to
the Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the holder could have
acquired if the holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable
upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on which a
record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if
no record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are
to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of the Purchase Rights.

         (b) Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets
to another Person or other transaction which is effected in such a way that
holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon
subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in
exchange for Common Stock is referred to herein as an "ORGANIC Change." Prior to
the consummation of any (i) sale of all or substantially all of the Company's
assets to an acquiring Person or (ii) other Organic Change following which the
Company is not a surviving entity, the Company will secure from the Person
purchasing the assets or the successor resulting from the Organic Change (in
each case, the "ACQUIRING ENTITY") written agreement (in form and substance
satisfactory to the holders of Warrants representing at least two-thirds of the
shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the Warrants then
outstanding, whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) to deliver to
each holder of Warrants in exchange for the Warrants, a security of the
Acquiring Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form
and substance to this Warrant and satisfactory to the holders of the Warrants
(including, an adjusted warrant exercise price equal to the value for the Common
Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger or sale, and

                                      -13-

exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock acquirable and
receivable upon exercise of the Warrants (without regard to any limitations on
exercises), if the value so reflected is less than the Warrant Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or sale). Prior to the
consummation of any other Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate
provision (in form and substance satisfactory to the holders of Warrants
representing at least two-thirds of the shares of Common Stock obtainable upon
exercise of the Warrants then outstanding) to ensure that each of the holders of
the Warrants will thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of or
in addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately
theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of the holder's Warrants
(without regard to any limitations on exercises), such shares of stock,
securities or assets that would have been issued or payable in such Organic
Change with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock
which would have been acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of the
holder's Warrant as of the date of the Organic Change (without taking into
account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant).

11.      LOST, STOLEN, MUTILATED OR DESTROYED WARRANT.

13.      DATE.

         The date of this Warrant is November 19, 2003 (the "WARRANT DATE").
This Warrant, in all events, shall be wholly void and of no effect after the
close of business on the Expiration Date, except that notwithstanding any other
provisions hereof, the provisions of SECTION 7 shall continue in full force and
effect after such date as to any Warrant Shares or other securities issued upon
the exercise of this Warrant.

14.      AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

         Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of the Warrants may
be amended and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to
perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has
obtained the written consent of the holders of Warrants representing at least
two-thirds of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
then outstanding; provided that no such action may increase the Warrant Exercise
Price of the Warrants or decrease the number of shares or class of stock
issuable upon exercise of any Warrant without the written consent of the holder
of that Warrant.

15.      SECTION DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS; GOVERNING LAW.

         The descriptive headings of the several sections and paragraphs of this
Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this
Warrant. The corporate laws of the State of Delaware shall govern all issues
concerning the relative rights of the Company and its stockholders. All other
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Warrant shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction)
that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the
State of California. In any action, dispute, litigation or other proceeding
concerning this Warrant (including arbitration), exclusive jurisdiction shall be
with the courts of California, with the County of Orange being the sole venue
for the bringing of the action or proceeding.

16.      COSTS.

         The Company agrees to pay to the holder of this Warrant upon demand all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred (including, without limitation reasonable
fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with (i) the enforcement of the
terms of or protection of the holder's rights under this Warrant, (ii) any
waiver requested by the Company of any of the holder's rights under this Warrant
and (iii) any proposed amendment, modification or restructuring of this Warrant.

17.      WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

         BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND
EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY
(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, AND
UNDERSTANDING THEY ARE WAIVING A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE
ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE
ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED
WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO, THIS WARRANT, THE AGREEMENT AND/OR ANY
RELATED AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS COMPLETED HEREBY OR THEREBY.
