                               WARRANT AGREEMENT

     This WARRANT AGREEMENT (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or
otherwise modified from time to time, this "Agreement") is entered into as of
February 9, 2001, among FIBERNET TELECOM GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), and FIRST CHICAGO INVESTMENT CORPORATION (the "Beneficiary").

                                   RECITALS
                                   --------

     A.   The Company desires and agrees to grant the Beneficiary common stock
warrants ("Warrants") to purchase up to 233,129 shares of the fully-diluted
common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company,
after giving effect to the exercise thereof (the Common Stock or any security
substituted for the Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants being
referred to herein as the "Warrant Shares"), at an initial exercise price equal
to $8.00 per share (the "Exercise Price"); and

     B.   The Company agrees to execute the Warrants referred to in Recital A
above and to deliver such Warrants to the Beneficiary on the date hereof.

                                   AGREEMENT
                                   ---------

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements
herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to
be legally bound, agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE I
                             WARRANT CERTIFICATES

     Section 1.1    Warrant Certificates
                    --------------------

     The certificates evidencing the Warrants (the "Warrant Certificates") to be
delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be substantially in the form set
forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
         ---------

     Section 1.2    Execution of Warrant Certificates
                    ---------------------------------

     (a)  The Warrant Certificates shall be signed on behalf of the Company by
its Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer or its President or a Vice
President and by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary.  Each such signature
upon the Warrant Certificates may be in the form of a facsimile signature of the
present or any future Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer President,
Vice President, Secretary or Assistant Secretary and may be imprinted or
otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates.

     (b)  In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the
Warrant Certificates shall cease to be such officer before the Warrant
Certificates so signed shall have been disposed of by the Company, such Warrant
Certificates nevertheless may be delivered or
<PAGE>

disposed of as though such person had not ceased to be such officer of the
Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by
any person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate,
shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Warrant Certificate,
although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any such person was not
such officer.

                                  ARTICLE II
                           REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER

     Section 2.1    Registration to Beneficiary
                    ---------------------------

     The Company shall number and register the Warrant Certificates in a
register as they are issued.  The Company may deem and treat the registered
holder(s) of the Warrant Certificates as the absolute owner(s) thereof
(notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by
anyone), for all purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary.

     Section 2.2    Release of Warrants
                    -------------------

     The Company agrees that it shall release Warrants representing the right to
acquire an aggregate of 233,129 shares of the Common Stock of the Company to the
Beneficiary or its designee on the date hereof.  The terms of this Agreement
shall be in full force and effect with respect to such Warrants, including,
without limitation, the anti-dilution provisions of Article VI hereof.
                                                    ----------

     Section 2.3    Transfers and Exchanges of Warrants and Warrant Shares.
                    ------------------------------------------------------
     (a)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Beneficiary shall
not be permitted to assign or otherwise transfer any Warrants or Warrant
Certificates.

     (b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Beneficiary shall
not be permitted to assign or otherwise transfer any Warrant Share for a period
of 35 days following the exercise pursuant to the terms hereof of the Warrant
entitling the Beneficiary to receive such Warrant Share; provided, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) this transfer restriction (i) shall not apply
if the Company has not effected a bona fide public offering and sale of Common
Stock pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission and (ii) shall not prevent the Beneficiary from exercising any of the
rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 7, 1999,
among the Company and certain investors named therein and in the Equity
Registration Rights Joinder Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the
Company, the Beneficiary and Signal Equity Partners, L.P., and (iii) may be
waived in writing by the Company.

     (b) The Warrant holders agree that, prior to any proposed transfer of a
Warrant Share, if such transfer is not made pursuant to an effective
Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
such transferee will, if requested by the Company, deliver to the Company:

                                       2
<PAGE>

     (i)    an investment covenant reasonably satisfactory to the Company signed
by the proposed transferee;

     (ii)   an agreement by such transferee to the impression of the restrictive
investment legend set forth below on such Warrant Share;

     (iii)  an agreement by such transferee that the Company may place a
notation on the stock books of the Company or a "stop transfer order" with any
transfer agent or registrar with respect to such Warrant Share;

     (iv)   an agreement by such transferee to be bound by the provisions of
this Section 2.3 relating to the transfer of such Warrant Share; and
     -----------

     (v)    an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance
to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer of such Warrant Share
may be made without registration under the Act.

     (c)    The Warrant holders agree that each certificate representing Warrant
Shares will bear the following legend:

     "THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED OR CONSTITUTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR
INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED.  SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED
UNLESS THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF SAID ACT HAVE BEEN COMPLIED WITH OR UNLESS
THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE
COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

     (d)  Warrant Certificates may be exchanged at the option of the holder(s)
thereof, when surrendered to the Company at its office for another Warrant
Certificate or other Warrant Certificates of like tenor and representing in the
aggregate a like number of Warrants.  Warrant Certificates surrendered for
exchange shall be cancelled and disposed of by the Company.

                                  ARTICLE III
                             EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

     Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Warrant holder shall have the
right, which may be exercised until 5:00 p.m., New York City time on April 11,
2005 (the "Expiration Date"), to receive from the Company the number of fully
paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares that the holder may at the time be
entitled to receive in accordance herewith upon the exercise of such Warrant and
payment of the Exercise Price.  Each Warrant not exercised prior to 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the Expiration Date shall become void and all rights
thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease as
of such time.  No adjustments as to dividends will be made upon exercise of the
Warrants.

                                       3
<PAGE>

     A Warrant may be exercised upon surrender to the Company at its office
designated for such purpose (the address of which is set forth in Section 9.2
                                                                  -----------
hereof) of the certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrants to be
exercised with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof duly
filled in and signed and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price as
adjusted as herein provided, for the number of Warrant Shares in respect of
which such Warrants are then exercised.  Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price
shall be made (i) in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the
order of the Company, (ii) through the surrender of preferred equity securities
or indebtedness of the Company having a liquidation preference or principal
amount, as the case may be, equal to the aggregate Exercise Price to be paid
(the Company will pay the accrued interest or dividends on such surrendered debt
or preferred equity securities in cash at the time of surrender notwithstanding
the stated terms thereof), (iii) by tendering Warrants having a fair market
value equal to the Exercise Price or (iv) with any combination of (i), (ii) or
(iii).  For purpose of clause (iii) above, the fair market value of the Warrants
shall be determined as follows: (A) to the extent the Common Stock is publicly
traded and listed on the Nasdaq National Securities Market or a national
securities exchange, the fair market value shall be equal to the difference
between (1) the Quoted Price of the Common Stock on the date of exercise and (2)
the Exercise Price; or (B) to the extent the Common Stock is not publicly
traded, or otherwise is not listed on a national securities exchange, the fair
market value shall be equal to the value per Warrant as determined in good faith
by the Board of Directors of the Company pursuant to Section 6.16.
                                                     ------------

     Subject to the provisions of Article IV hereof, upon such surrender of
                                  ----------
Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price, the Company shall issue and cause to
be delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the
holder and in such name or names as the Warrant holder may designate, a
certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares issuable upon
the exercise of such Warrants together with cash as provided in Article VII;
                                                                -----------
provided, however, that if any consolidation, merger or lease or sale of assets
is proposed to be effected by the Company as described in Section 6.15 hereof,
                                                          ------------
or a tender offer or an exchange offer for shares of Common Stock of the Company
shall be made, upon such surrender of Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price
as aforesaid, the Company shall, as soon as possible, but in any event not later
than two Business Days thereafter, issue and cause to be delivered the full
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants in the
manner described in this sentence together with cash as provided in Article VII.
                                                                    -----------
Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any
person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder
of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such
Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price.

     The Warrants shall be exercisable, at the election of the holders thereof,
either in full or, from time to time, in part and, in the event that a
certificate evidencing Warrants is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the
Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the date of
expiration of the Warrants, a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant
or Warrants will be issued and delivered pursuant to the provisions of this
Section and of Section 1.2 hereof.
               -----------

     All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be
cancelled and disposed of by the Company.  The Company shall keep copies of this
Agreement and any notices

                                       4
<PAGE>

given or received hereunder available for inspection by the holders during
normal business hours at its office.

                                  ARTICLE IV
                               PAYMENT OF TAXES

     The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the
initial issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which
may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant
Certificates or any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of
the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of
a Warrant, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such
Warrant Certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the
issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall
have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

                                   ARTICLE V
                   MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANT CERTIFICATES

     In case any of the Warrant Certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or
destroyed, the Company may in its discretion issue, in exchange and substitution
for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of
and substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new
Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of
Warrants, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant Certificate and
indemnity, if requested, also reasonably satisfactory to it.  Applicants for
such substitute Warrant Certificates shall also comply with such other
reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may
prescribe.

                                  ARTICLE VI
                         RESERVATION OF WARRANT SHARES

     Section 6.1    Warrant Shares
                    --------------

     (a)  The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, free from
preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common
Stock or its authorized and issued Common Stock held in its treasury, for the
purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon
exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may
then be deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants.

     (b)  The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for the Common Stock
(the "Transfer Agent") and every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the
Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise of any of the rights of
purchase represented by the Warrants will be irrevocably authorized and directed
at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required
for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this Agreement on file with
the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of
the Company's capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase
represented by the Warrants.

                                       5
<PAGE>

The Company will furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of
adjustments and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each holder
pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof.
            -----------

     (c)  Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to
Article VI hereof to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any)
----------
of the Warrant Shares, the Company will take any corporate action which may, in
the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares at the Exercise
Price as so adjusted.

     (d)  The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon
exercise of Warrants will, upon issue and payment of the appropriate Exercise
Price, be fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all
taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issue thereof.

     Section 6.2    Obtaining Stock Exchange Listings
                    ---------------------------------

     The Company will, from time to time, take all action which may be necessary
so that the Warrant Shares, upon their issuance upon the exercise of Warrants,
will be listed on the principal securities exchanges and markets within the
United States of America, if any, on which other shares of Common Stock are then
listed for so long as such other shares of Common Stock are so listed.

     Section 6.3    Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares
                    ---------------------------------------------------------
Issuable
--------

     (a)  The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the
exercise of each Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of the events enumerated in this Article VI.  For purposes of this
                                            ----------
Article VI, "Common Stock" means shares now or hereafter authorized of any class
----------
of common stock of the Company and any other stock of the Company, however
designated, that has the right (subject to any prior rights of any class or
series of preferred stock) to participate in any distribution of the assets or
earnings of the Company without limit as to per share amount.

     Section 6.4    Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock
                    --------------------------------------
     (a)   If the Company:

     (i)   pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares
of its Common Stock;

     (ii)  subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
number of shares;

     (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number
of shares;

     (iv)  makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its capital
stock other than Common Stock; or

     (v)  issues by reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of its
capital stock;

                                       6
<PAGE>

then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be
proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any Warrant thereafter exercised
may receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock of the
Company which he would have owned immediately following such action if such
Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such action.

     (b)  The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record
date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

     (c)  If, after an adjustment, a holder of a Warrant may receive shares of
two or more classes of capital stock of the Company upon the exercise of such
Warrant, then the Company  shall determine the allocation of the adjusted
Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock.  After such allocation, the
exercise privilege and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall
thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to
Common Stock in this Article VI.
                     ----------

     (d)  Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed
above shall occur.

     Section 6.5    Adjustment for Rights Issue
                    ---------------------------

     (a)  If the Company distributes any rights, options or warrants entitling
any person to subscribe for Common Stock or securities convertible into, or
exchangeable or exercisable for, Common Stock at an offering price which is less
than the Current Market Price per share on that record date for such issuance,
the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:

                    N x P
                O + -----
                      M
     E'  =  E x -----------
                    O + N
     where:

     E' =   the adjusted Exercise Price.

     E  =   the current Exercise Price.

     O  =   the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date.

     N  =   the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered.

     P  =   the offering price per share of the additional shares.

     M  =   the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the record
date.

     (b)  For purposes of this Section 6.5, the "offering price" shall include
                               -----------
the amount initially paid for such rights, options or warrants plus the amount
to be paid upon exercise or conversion of such rights, options or warrants.

                                       7
<PAGE>

     (c)   The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights,
options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the
rights, options or warrants.  If at the end of the period during which such
rights, options or warrants are exercisable, not all rights, options or warrants
shall have been exercised, the Exercise Price shall be immediately readjusted to
what it would have been if "N" in the above formula had been the number of

             securities.

     D =     the maximum number of shares deliverable upon conversion or in

             rate.

made, and shall become effective immediately after such issuance.

     (c) If all of the Common Stock deliverable upon conversion or exchange of
such securities has not been issued when such securities are no longer
outstanding, then the Exercise Price shall promptly be readjusted to the
Exercise Price that would then be in effect had "D" in the above formula been
equal to the actual number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion or
exchange of such securities.

faith by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 6.16, based upon the trading
                                            ------------
prices of publicly traded securities where appropriate (irrespective of the

accounting treatment thereof), whose determination shall be described in a Board
of Directors' resolution;

case to be determined in the same manner as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) of

kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which the holder of a
Warrant would have owned immediately after the consolidation, merger, transfer
or lease if the holder had exercised the Warrant immediately before the
effective date of the transaction.  Concurrently with the consummation of such
transaction, the corporation formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger if other than the Company, or the person to which such sale or conveyance
shall have been made, shall enter into a supplemental Warrant Agreement so
providing and further providing for adjustments which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Article

agree with any such determination by the Company or its Board of Directors, such
holders may request, in a notice delivered to the Company not later than 15 days
after the date on which the holders received notice of such determination from
the Company, that such determination be made, at the cost of the Company, by an
investment banking firm (or, if an investment banking firm is generally not
qualified to render such a determination, an appraisal firm) of recognized
national standing, which determination shall be final and binding on the Company
and the holders of Warrants, absent manifest error.

                               ----------
the Exercise Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event,
the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to
the holder of any Warrant exercised after such record date the Warrant Shares
and other capital stock of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise over
and above the Warrant Shares and other capital stock of the Company, if any,
issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Exercise Price and (ii) paying
to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of a fractional share pursuant to
Section 7.1; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder a

due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder's right to
receive such additional Warrant Shares, other capital stock and cash upon the
occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

     Section 6.18   Adjustment in Number of Shares.
                    -------------------------------

     Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Article VI,
                                                                 ----------
each Warrant outstanding prior to the making of the adjustment in the Exercise
Price shall thereafter evidence the right to receive upon payment of the
adjusted Exercise Price that number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the
nearest hundredth) obtained from the following formula:

     N' = N X E

     E =  the Exercise Price prior to adjustment.

     Section 6.19  Form of Warrants.
                   -----------------

     Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind
of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants, Warrants theretofore or
thereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of
shares as are stated in the Warrants initially issuable pursuant to this
Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                             FRACTIONAL INTERESTS

     The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the
exercise of Warrants.  If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise
in full at the same time by the same holder, the number of full Warrant Shares
which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof

                                      15
<PAGE>

shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares
purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a
Warrant Share would, other than pursuant to the provisions of this Article VII,
                                                                   -----------
be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the
Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of such
Warrant (as determined in accordance with Article III hereof) on the day
                                          -----------
immediately preceding the date the Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied
by such fraction.

                                 ARTICLE VIII
          NO DILUTION OR IMPAIRMENT; CAPITAL AND OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE

     If any event shall occur as to which the provisions of Article VI are not
                                                            ----------
strictly applicable, but the failure to make any adjustment would adversely
affect the purchase rights represented by the Warrants in accordance with the
essential intent and principles of such Article, then, in each such case, the
Company shall appoint an investment banking firm of recognized national standing
that does not have a direct or material indirect financial interest in the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which has not been, and, at the time it is
called upon to give independent financial advice to the Company, is not (and
none of its directors, officers, employees, affiliates or stockholders are) a
promoter, director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which
shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with
the essential intent and principles established in Article VI, necessary to
                                                   ----------
preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights represented by the Warrants.
Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to
the holders of the Warrants and shall make the adjustments described therein.

     The Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or
through any consolidation, merger, reorganization, transfer of assets,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or
seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of the Warrants,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms
and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order
to protect the rights of the holder of the Warrants against dilution or other
impairment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a)
will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock on the exercise of the Warrants from time to time outstanding and
(b) will not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Exercise
Price if the total number of Warrant Shares issuable after the action upon the
exercise of all of the Warrants would exceed the total number of shares of
Common Stock then authorized by the Company's certificate of incorporation and
available for the purposes of issue upon such exercise.  A consolidation,
merger, reorganization or transfer of assets involving the Company covered by
Section 6.15 shall not be prohibited by or require any adjustment under this
------------
Article VIII.

     (b) In the event:

     (i) that the Company shall authorize the issuance to all holders of shares
of Common Stock of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
shares of Common Stock or of any other subscription rights or warrants; or

     (ii) that the Company shall authorize the distribution to all holders of

thereof the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in
respect of the meetings of shareholders or the election of Directors of the
Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as shareholders of the
Company.

     The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly
authorized issue of Warrants expiring April 11, 2005 entitling the holder on
exercise to receive shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the
Company (the "Common Stock"), and are issued or to be issued pursuant to a
Warrant Agreement, dated as of February 9, 2001 (the "Warrant Agreement"), duly
executed and delivered by the Company, which Warrant Agreement is hereby
incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby
referred to for a description of the rights, limitation of rights, obligations,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company and the holders (the words
"holders" or "holder" meaning the registered holders or registered holder) of
the Warrants.  A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the holder
hereof upon written request to the Company.

     The holder of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may exercise
them by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of election to
purchase set forth hereon properly completed and executed, together with payment
of the Exercise Price at the office of the Company designated for such purpose.
In the event that upon any exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby the number of
Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced
hereby, there shall be issued to the holder hereof or his assignee a new Warrant
Certificate evidencing the number of Warrants not exercised. No adjustment shall
be made for any dividends on any Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant.

     The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events
the Exercise Price set forth on the face hereof may, subject to certain
conditions, be adjusted.  If the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Warrant
Agreement provides that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted.  No fractions of a share of Common
Stock will be issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, but the Company will pay
the cash value thereof determined as provided in the Warrant Agreement.

     The holders of the Warrants are entitled to certain registration rights
with respect to the Warrants.  Said registration rights are set forth in full in
a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 7, 1999, among the Company and
certain investors named therein and an Equity Registration Rights Joinder
Agreement, dated as of February 9, 2001, among the Company, First Chicago
Investment Corporation and Signal Equity Partners, L.P.  A copy of these
documents may be obtained by the holder hereof upon written request to the
Company.

     Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the office of the Company by the
registered holder thereof in person or by legal representative or attorney duly
authorized in writing, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the
limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any
service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like
tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants.

     The Company may deem and treat the registered holder(s) thereof as the
absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of
ownership or other writing
<PAGE>

hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any
distribution to the holder(s) hereof, and for all other purposes, and the
Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the
Warrants nor this Warrant Certificate entitles any holder hereof to any rights
of a stockholder of the Company.
