          1.3. Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a fractional share) by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in subsection 1.2 except that the amount payable by the holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock designated by the holder in the  Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price. On any such partial exercise, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon   the order of the holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of  the holder hereof or as such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes), may request, the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.

     2. Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise.

          3.2. Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company  following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense  deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities and  property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the holders of  the Warrants, if exercised, after the effective date of such dissolution  pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company having its principal
office in New York, NY, as trustee for the holder or holders of the  Warrants.

          3.3. Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after   the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 5.

event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately  after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase
Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be increased to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for
the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

     5. Chief Financial Officer's Certificate as to Adjustments.

Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder of the Warrant and any Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 10 hereof).

     6. Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant. This Warrant entitles the holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company's Common Stock.

     7. Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable Securities laws, and delivery of such representations and warranties as shall reasonably be requested by the Company, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor") with respect to any or all of the Shares.

"Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.

     8. Replacement of Warrant. On 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 of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

9. Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the each holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent having an office in New York, NY for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.

10. Transfer on the Company's Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.


     11. Notices, etc. All notices and other communications from the Company to the holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first class registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such holder or, until any such holder furnishes to the Company an address, then to, and at the address of, the last holder of this Warrant who has so furnished an address to the Company.
