The "Units" shall consist of that number of shares of Common Stock (the "Optional Shares") and such number of warrants in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit 3 (the "Optional Adjustment Warrants") as shall be calculated pursuant to Section 3(c). The Exercise Price and the number of shares for which the Call Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. This Call Warrant is being issued in connection with the Common Stock Investment Agreement dated September 1, 2000 (the "Agreement") entered into between the Company and the Investor. 1. Title of Call Warrant. Prior to the expiration hereof and subject to compliance with applicable laws, this Call Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in respect of the right to purchase any part of the Units, at the office or agency of the Company by the holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Call Warrant together with (a) the Assignment Form annexed hereto as Exhibit 2 properly endorsed, and (b) any other documentation reasonably necessary to satisfy the Company that such transfer is in compliance with all applicable securities laws. 2.

Exercise of Call Warrant. (a) The Investors have the option but not the obligation, by delivering one or more written notices of exercise in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit 1 (each a "Notice") to the Company at any time up to and including the Termination Date, to purchase in no more than two (2) transactions of not less than $1,000,000 each, up to $2,000,000 worth of Units as provided in this Section 3. The date of such Notice shall be deemed the "Notice Date." (b) Prerequisite. The Investor may only deliver a Notice if the average closing bid price of a share of Common Stock on the Principal Market for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding but not including the applicable Notice Date exceeds the Share Purchase Price, such average being the "Exercise Price." (c) Calculations and Closing. The Notice shall specify the dollar value of Units the Investor wishes to purchase (the "Notice Amount"). At 10:00 a.m. on the third (3rd) Trading Day following the Notice Date, the Company will deliver to the Investor, at the offices of KKWC, Units consisting of (i) the number of Optional Shares determined by dividing the Notice Amount by the applicable Exercise Price, and (ii) Optional Adjustment Warrants covering such Optional Shares. The Optional Adjustment Warrants shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto. At such closing (each, an "Optional Closing"), the Investor will deliver to the Company the applicable Notice Amount, whereupon it will be deemed the record and beneficial owner of all the applicable Units as of the Notice Date. (d) Alternatively, the Call Warrant holder may but shall not be required to exercise this Call Warrant, in whole or in part in a "cashless" or "net-issue" exercise by delivering to the offices of the Company or any transfer agent for the Common Stock this Call Warrant, together with a Notice specifying the number of Units to be delivered to such Call Warrant holder ("Deliverable Units") and the number of shares of Common Stock with 2 respect to which this Call Warrant is being surrendered in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Deliverable Units ("Surrendered Shares"). The number of Deliverable Units shall be calculated as follows: # of Deliverable Units = # of Surrendered Shares x Fair Market Value of Common Stock less Exercise Price ----------------------------------------------------- Fair Market Value of Common Stock
"Fair Market Value" shall have the meaning specified in Section 12(c) In the event that the Call Warrant is not exercised in full, the number of Units shall be reduced by the number of such Units for which this Call Warrant is exercised and/or surrendered, and the Company, at its expense, shall within three (3) Trading Days issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Call Warrant holder a new Call Warrant of like tenor in the name of Call Warrant holder or as Call Warrant holder (upon payment by Call Warrant holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, reflecting such adjusted Units. All exercises will be deemed to occur as of the date of the Notice, and certificates for Units purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the holder hereof within three (3) Trading Days after the date on which this Call Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. The Call Warrant holder may withdraw its Notice at any time thereafter if the Company fails to timely deliver the applicable certificates to the Call Warrant holder as provided in this Call Warrant. (e) In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon exercise, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer ("FAST") program, upon request of the Call Warrant holder, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon exercise to the Call Warrant holder by crediting the account of Call Warrant holder's prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system. The time periods for delivery described in the immediately preceding paragraph shall apply to the electronic transmittals described herein. The term "Trading Day" means (x) if the Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange, a day on which there is trading on such stock exchange, or (y) if the Common Stock is not listed on either of such stock exchanges but sale prices of the Common Stock are reported on an automated quotation system, a day on which trading is reported on the principal automated quotation system on which sales of the Common Stock are reported, or (z) if the foregoing provisions are inapplicable, a day on which quotations are reported by National Quotation Bureau Incorporated. 3 4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Call Warrant. 5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Units upon the exercise of this Call Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder hereof for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the holder of this Call Warrant or in such name or names as may be directed by the holder of this Call Warrant; provided, however, that in the event certificates for Units are to be issued in a name other than the name of the holder of this Call Warrant, this Call Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the holder hereof; and provided further, 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 issuance of any Call Warrant certificates or any certificates for the Units other than the issuance of a Call Warrant Certificate to the Investor in connection with the Investor's surrender of a Call Warrant Certificate upon the exercise of less than all of the Call Warrants evidenced thereby, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such 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. 6. Closing of Books. The Company will at no time close its shareholder books or records in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Call Warrant. 7. No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise. Subject to Section 12 of this Call Warrant and the provisions of any other written agreement between the Company and the Investor, the Investor shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Optional Shares or any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Investor, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until the Call Warrant shall have been exercised as provided herein. However, at the time of the exercise of this Call Warrant pursuant to Section 3 hereof, the Units so purchased hereunder shall be deemed to be issued to such holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Call Warrant shall have been exercised. 8. Assignment and Transfer of Call Warrant. This Call Warrant may be assigned in whole or in part by the surrender of this Call Warrant and the Assignment Form annexed hereto duly executed at the office of the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered holder hereof at the 4 address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company); provided, however, that this Call Warrant may not be resold or otherwise transferred except (i) in a transaction registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or (ii) in a transaction pursuant to an exemption, if available, from registration under the Act and whereby, if requested by the Company, an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company is obtained by the holder of this Call Warrant to the effect that the transaction is so exempt. 9. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Call Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Call Warrant or certificates representing the Units, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto. Upon surrender and cancellation of such Call Warrant or Units, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Call Warrant or Units of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of this Call Warrant or Units. 10. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a legal holiday. 11. Effect of Certain Events. If at any time while this Call Warrant or any portion thereof is outstanding and unexpired there shall be (i) a sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or (ii) a transaction (by merger or otherwise) in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of (collectively, a "Sale or Merger Transaction"), in which the consideration to be received by the Company or its shareholders consists solely of cash, and in case the Company shall at any time effect a Sale or Merger Transaction in which the consideration to be received by the Company or its shareholders consists in part of consideration other than cash, the holder of this Call Warrant shall have the right thereafter to purchase, by exercise of this Call Warrant and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such transaction had this Call Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 12. Notwithstanding the above, a Sale or Merger Transaction shall not be deemed to occur in the event the Company is the acquiring entity in connection with an acquisition by the Company. 12. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Units. The number of and kind of securities purchasable upon exercise of this Call Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows: (a) Subdivisions, Combinations and other Issuances. If the Company shall at any time after the date hereof but prior to the expiration of this Call Warrant subdivide its outstanding 5 securities as to which purchase rights under this Call Warrant exist, by split-up, spin-off, or otherwise, or combine its outstanding securities as to which purchase rights under this Call Warrant exist, the number of Optional Shares as to which this Call Warrant is exercisable as of the date of such subdivision, split-up, spin-off or combination shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate proportional adjustments (decrease in the case of subdivision, increase in the case of combination) shall also be made to the Exercise Price payable per share, so that the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the total number of Optional Shares purchasable under this Call Warrant as of such date shall remain the same as it would have been before such subdivision or combination. (b) Stock Dividend. If at any time after the date hereof the Company declares a dividend or other distribution on Common Stock payable in Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into Common Stock ("Common Stock Equivalents") without payment of any consideration by holders of Common Stock for the additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof), then the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Call Warrant may be exercised shall be increased as of the record date (or the date of such dividend distribution if no record date is set) for determining which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends, in proportion to the increase in the number of outstanding shares (and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all such securities convertible into Common Stock) of Common Stock as a result of such dividend, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately reduced so that the aggregate Exercise Price for all the Optional Shares issuable hereunder immediately after the record date (or on the date of such distribution, if applicable), for such dividend shall equal the aggregate Exercise Price so payable immediately before such record date (or on the date of such distribution, if applicable). (c) Other Distributions. If at any time after the date hereof the Company distributes to holders of its Common Stock, other than as part of its dissolution, liquidation or the winding up of its affairs, any shares of its capital stock, any evidence of indebtedness or any of its assets (other than Common Stock), then the number of Optional Shares for which this Call Warrant is exercisable shall be increased to equal: (i) the number of Call Warrant Shares for which this Call Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event, (ii) multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which shall be the Fair Market Value (as defined below) per share of Common Stock on the record date for the dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value price per share of Common Stock on the record date for the dividend or distribution minus the amount allocable to one share of Common Stock of the value (as jointly determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Call Warrant holder) of any and all such evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock, other securities or property, so distributed. For purposes of this Call Warrant, "Fair Market Value" shall equal the 10 Trading Day average closing trading price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market for the 10 Trading Days preceding the date of determination or, if the Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on any Principal Market, the average 6 of the closing bid and asked prices on the over-the-counter market as furnished by any New York Stock Exchange member firm reasonably selected from time to time by the Company for that purpose and reasonably acceptable to the Holder, or, if the Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on the Principal Market or traded over-the-counter and the average price cannot be determined as contemplated above, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock shall be as reasonably determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors with the concurrence of the Holder. The Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal: (i) the Exercise Price in effect immediately before the occurrence of any event (ii) multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Optional Shares for which this Call Warrant is exercisable immediately before the adjustment, and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Optional Shares for which this Call Warrant is exercisable immediately after the adjustment. (d) Merger, etc. If at any time after the date hereof there shall be a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into or a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another entity, then the Call Warrant holder shall be entitled to receive upon or after such transfer, merger or consolidation becoming effective, and upon payment of the Exercise Price then in effect, the number of shares or other securities or property of the Company or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation, which would have been received by Call Warrant holder for the shares of stock subject to this Call Warrant had this Call Warrant been exercised just prior to such transfer, merger or consolidation becoming effective or to the applicable record date thereof, as the case may be. The Company will not merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation, or sell or otherwise transfer its property, assets and business substantially as an entirety to another corporation, unless the corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation (if not the Company), or such transferee corporation, as the case may be, shall expressly assume in writing the due and punctual performance and observance of each and every covenant and condition of this Call Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company. (e) Reclassification, etc. If at any time after the date hereof there shall be a reorganization or reclassification of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Call Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, then the Call Warrant holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Call Warrant, during the period specified herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price then in effect, the number of shares or other securities or property resulting from such reorganization or reclassification, which would have been received by the Call Warrant holder for the shares of stock subject to this Call Warrant had this Call Warrant at such time been exercised. (f) Exercise Price Adjustment. In the event that the Company issues or sells any Common Stock or securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for its Common Stock or any convertible securities, or any Call Warrants or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase or any options for the purchase of its Common Stock or any such convertible securities (other than shares or options issued or which may be issued pursuant to (i) the Company's current 7 or future employee, director or bona fide consultant option plans or shares issued upon exercise of options, Call Warrants or rights outstanding on the date of the Agreement and listed in the Company's most recent periodic report filed under the Exchange Act (ii) strategic corporate alliances not undertaken principally for financing purposes, (iii) arrangements with the Investor, or (iv) acquisitions of other entities by the Company) at an effective Exercise Price per share which is less than the Exercise Price then in effect of the Common Stock on the trading day next preceding such issue or sale, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale shall be reduced effective concurrently with such issue or sale to an amount determined by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale, plus (2) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received by the Company for such additional shares would purchase at such Exercise Price then in effect; and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after such issue or sale. For the purposes of the foregoing adjustment, in the case of the issuance of any convertible securities, Call Warrants, options or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase or exchange for, shares of Common Stock ("Convertible Securities"), the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise, exchange or conversion of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be outstanding, provided that no further adjustment shall be made upon the actual issuance of Common Stock upon exercise, exchange or conversion of such Convertible Securities. The number of shares which may be purchased hereunder shall be increased proportionately to any reduction in Exercise Price pursuant to this paragraph 12(f), so that after such adjustments the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the increased number of shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect just prior to such adjustments. 13. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at its option, at any time during the term of this Call Warrant, reduce but not increase the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. 14. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Units or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Call Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail to the holder of this Call Warrant a notice setting forth the number of Units (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Call Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Units after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. 15. Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the Call Warrant is outstanding and exercisable, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance and exercise of the Units 8 upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Call Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Call Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Units upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Call Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Units may be issued and exercised as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the American Stock Exchange or any domestic securities exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed. 16. 9/9% Limitation. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the Investor upon exercise pursuant to the terms hereof shall not exceed a number that, when added to the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by such holder (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including the Call Warrant) that have limitations on the Investor's right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein), together with all shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) by the holder's "affiliates" (as defined Rule 144 of the Act) ("Aggregation Parties") that would be aggregated for purposes of determining whether a group under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, exists, would exceed 9.99% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Restricted Ownership Percentage"). Each holder shall have the right (w) at any time and from time to time to reduce its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon notice to the Company and (x) at any time and from time to time, to increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately in the event of the announcement as pending or planned of an event of: (i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity or person (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation), or any other corporate reorganization or transaction or series of related transactions in which in excess of 50% of the Company's voting power is transferred through a merger, consolidation, tender offer or similar transaction, (ii) any person (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), together with its affiliates and associates (as such terms are defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act), beneficially owns or is deemed to beneficially own (as described in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act without regard to the 60-day exercise period) in excess of 50% of the Company's voting power, (iii)there is a replacement of more than one-half of the members of the Company's Board of Directors which is not approved by those individuals who are members 9 of the Company's Board of Directors on the date thereof, in one or a series of related transactions, or (iv) a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, determined on a consolidated basis. (b) The Investor covenants at all times on each day (each such day being referred to as a "Covenant Day") as follows: During the balance of such Covenant Day and the succeeding sixty-one (61) days (the balance of such Covenant Day and the succeeding 61 days being referred to as the "Covenant Period") such Investor will not acquire shares of Common Stock pursuant to any right (including the exercise of the Call Warrant) existing at the commencement of the Covenant Period to the extent the number of shares so acquired by such holder and its Aggregation Parties (ignoring all dispositions) would exceed: (x) the Restricted Ownership Percentage of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the commencement of the Covenant Period, minus (y) the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such holder and its Aggregation Parties at the commencement of the Covenant Period. A new and independent covenant will be deemed to be given by the holder as of each moment of each Covenant Day. No covenant will terminate, diminish or modify any other covenant. The holder agrees to comply with each such covenant. This Section 16 controls in the case of any conflict with any other provision of the Transaction Documents. The Company's obligation to issue shares of Common Stock which would exceed such limits referred to in this Section 16 shall be suspended to the extent necessary until such time, if any, as shares of Common Stock may be issued in compliance with such restrictions. 17. Compliance with Securities Laws. (a) The holder hereof acknowledges that the Units acquired upon the exercise of this Call Warrant, if not registered (or if no exemption from registration exists), will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws. Each certificate representing the Units issued to the holder upon exercise (if not registered or if no exemption from registration exists) will bear the following legend: THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS 10 AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, BASED ON AN OPINION LETTER OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY OR A NO-ACTION LETTER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. (b) Without limiting the Investor's right to transfer, assign or otherwise convey the Call Warrant or Units in compliance with all applicable securities laws, the Investor of this Call Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Call Warrant and the Units to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Investor's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and that the Investor will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Call Warrant or any Units to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of applicable federal and state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Call Warrant, the Investor shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the Units of Common Stock so purchased are being acquired solely for the Investor's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. (c) Neither this Call Warrant nor any share of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Call Warrant may be offered for sale or sold, or otherwise transferred or sold in any transaction which would constitute a sale thereof within the meaning of the Act, unless (i) such security has been registered for sale under the Act and registered or qualified under applicable state securities laws relating to the offer an sale of securities, or (ii) exemptions from the registration requirements of the Act and the registration or qualification requirements of all such state securities laws are available and the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel that the proposed sale or other disposition of such securities may be effected without registration under the Act, such counsel and such opinion to be satisfactory to the Company. (d) Investor recognizes that investing in the Call Warrant and the Units involves a high degree of risk, and Investor is in a financial position to hold the Call Warrant and the Call Warrant Shares indefinitely and is able to bear the economic risk and withstand a complete loss of its investment in the Call Warrant and the Units. The Investor is a sophisticated investor and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investing in the Company. The Investor has had an opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management and financial affairs with the Company's management, has been given full and complete access to information concerning the Company, and has utilized such access to its satisfaction for the purpose of obtaining information or verifying information and have had the opportunity to inspect the Company's operation.

The initial Investor in this Call Warrant is an "accredited investor", as defined by Regulation D promulgated under the Act. 18. Miscellaneous. (a) Issue Date; Choice Of Law; Venue; Jurisdiction.
