The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder (the "WARRANT SHARES") and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4 hereof. This Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions and conditions: 1. Manner of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates; Payment for Shares. Subject to the provisions hereof, including, without limitation, the limitations contained in Section 6 hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant, together with a completed exercise agreement in the form attached hereto (the "EXERCISE AGREEMENT"), to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company's principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), and upon payment to the Company in cash, by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer for the account of the Company, of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Agreement. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered, 2 the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered, and payment shall have been made for such shares as set forth above or, if such date is not a business date, on the next succeeding business date. The Warrant Shares so purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares specified in the Exercise Agreement, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding three business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised (the "DELIVERY PERIOD"). If the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, and so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the holder is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares so purchased to the holder by crediting the account of the holder with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system ("DTC TRANSFER"). If the aforementioned conditions to a DTC Transfer are not satisfied, the Company shall deliver to the holder physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares so purchased. Further, the holder may instruct the Company to deliver to the holder physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares so purchased in lieu of delivering such shares by way of DTC Transfer. Any certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be reasonably requested by the holder hereof, shall be registered in the name of such holder and, if permitted under the Securities Act, shall not bear any restrictive legend. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. 2. Period of Exercise. This Warrant is immediately exercisable, at any time or from time to time on or after the date of initial issuance of this Warrant (the "ISSUE DATE") and before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date (the "EXERCISE PERIOD"). The Exercise Period shall automatically be extended by one (1) day for each day on which the Company does not have a number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise hereof at least equal to the number of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof. 3. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows: (a) Shares to be Fully Paid. All Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable. (b) Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise in full of this Warrant (without giving effect to the limitations on exercise set forth in Section 6(g) hereof). (c) Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter 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 2 3 economic benefit inuring to the holder hereof and the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. (d) Successors and Assigns. 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. (e) Blue Sky Laws. The Company shall, on or before the date of issuance of any Warrant Shares, take such actions as the Company shall reasonably determine are necessary to qualify the Warrant Shares for, or obtain exemption for the Warrant Shares for, sale to the holder of this Warrant upon the exercise hereof under applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the United States; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (a) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (b) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction or (c) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. 4. Antidilution Provisions. During the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 4. (a) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) its shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) its shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. (b) Adjustment in Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of Section 4(a), the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at each such Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price. (c) Consolidation, Merger or Sale. In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other corporation, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than in connection with 3 4 a plan of complete liquidation of the Company at any time during the Exercise Period, then as a condition of such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance, adequate provision will be made whereby the holder hereof will have the right to acquire and receive upon exercise of this Warrant in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities, cash or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant had such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance not taken place. In any such case, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that the provisions of this Section 4 hereof will thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not effect any consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) assumes by written instrument the obligations under this Warrant and the obligations to deliver to the holder hereof such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be entitled to acquire. (d) Distribution of Assets. In case the Company shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a partial liquidating dividend, stock repurchase by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Company's stockholders of cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary) (a "DISTRIBUTION"), at any time during the Exercise Period, then the holder hereof shall be entitled upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of any or all of the shares of Common Stock subject hereto, to receive the amount of such assets (or rights) which would have been payable to the holder had such holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to such Distribution. (e) Notice of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of any event which requires any adjustment of the Exercise Price, then, and in each such case, the Company shall give notice thereof to the holder hereof, which notice shall state the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon exercise, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Such calculation shall be certified by the chief financial officer of the Company. (f) Minimum Adjustment of Exercise Price. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount of less than $.01, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less than $.01. (g) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fractional share which would otherwise be issuable in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the date of such exercise. (h) Certain Events. If, at any time during the Exercise Period, any event occurs of the type contemplated by the adjustment provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly 4 5 provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the declaration of any dividends or other distributions; or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company), the Company will give notice of such event as provided in Section 4(e) hereof, and the Company's Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant at each such Exercise Price so that the rights of the holder shall be neither enhanced nor diminished by such event. 5. No Rights or Liabilities as a Stockholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. 6. Transfer, Exchange, Redemption and Replacement of Warrant. (a) Restriction on Transfer. This Warrant and the rights granted to the holder hereof are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant, together with a properly executed assignment in the form attached hereto, at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Section 6(e) below, provided, however, that any transfer or assignment shall be subject to the conditions set forth in Sections 6(f) and (g) hereof and to the transfer restrictions in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated November 22, 2000 between the Company, the holder hereof and the other investors listed on the signature pages of such Agreement. Until due presentment for registration of transfer on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder hereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. (b) Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the holder hereof at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Section 6(e) below, for new Warrants of like tenor of different denominations representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to represent the right to purchase such number of shares (at the Exercise Price therefor) as shall be designated by the holder hereof at the time of such surrender. (c) Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft, or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor. (d) Cancellation; Payment of Expenses. Upon the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer, exchange, or replacement as provided in this Section 6, this Warrant shall be promptly canceled by the Company. 5 6 (e) Warrant Register.

In the event that the holder of this Warrant is required to file a pre-merger notification under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR ACT"), with respect to the exercise of this Warrant, such exercise shall not take place until the date all required clearance and pre-termination notices under the HSR Act have been received from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice. 7.
