dates upon which this Warrant is exercised.  In the event of any exercise of
the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the shares of stock so

Holder a number shares of the Company's Preferred Stock computed using the

Company's Preferred Stock shall mean the average of the closing bid and asked
prices of the Company's Preferred Stock quoted on the Nasdaq National Market or
the closing price quoted on any exchange on which the Preferred Stock is
listed, whichever is applicable, as published in the Western Edition of The
Wall Street Journal for the ten trading days prior to the date of determination
of fair market value.  If the Preferred Stock is not traded on an exchange, the
fair market value shall be the price per share which the Company could obtain
from a willing buyer for shares sold by the Company from authorized but
unissued shares, as such price shall be determined by a qualified appraiser,
mutually agreed upon by the Company and the holder hereof.

be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant and
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock will, upon
issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issue thereof.  During the period within which the
rights represented by the Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all
times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of
the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of
its Preferred Stock (and Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof) to
provide for the exercise of the right represented by this Warrant.

         4.      Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Shares.  The number
and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and the
Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:

         (a)  Reclassification or Merger.  In case of any reclassification,
change or conversion of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value,
or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or
combination), or in case of any merger of the Company with or into another
corporation (other than a merger with another corporation in which the Company
is a continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification
or change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or
in case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company,
the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be,
shall execute a new Warrant (in form and substance satisfactory to the holder
of this Warrant) providing that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right
to exercise such new Warrant and upon such exercise to receive, in lieu of each
share of Preferred Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant,
the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property
receivable upon such reclassification, change or merger by a holder of one
share of Preferred Stock.  Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that
shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided
for in this Paragraph 4.  The provisions of this subparagraph (a) shall
similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, mergers and
transfers.

<PAGE>   4
                 (b)  Subdivisions or Combination of Shares.  If the Company at
any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide
or combine its Preferred Stock, the Warrant Price and the number of Shares
issuable upon exercise hereof shall be proportionately adjusted.

                 (c)  Stock Dividends.  If the Company at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall pay a dividend payable in shares of
Preferred Stock (except any distribution specifically provided for in the
foregoing subparagraphs (a) and (b)), then the Warrant Price shall be adjusted,
from and after the date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive
such dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a
fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of
Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution,
and (b) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of
Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution and
the number of Shares subject to this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted.

                 (d)  No Impairment.  The Company will not, by amendment of its
Restated Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization,
recapitalization, 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
hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the
carrying out of all the provisions of this Paragraph 4 and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights
of the holder of this Warrant against impairment.

                 (e)  Notices of Record Date.  In the event of any taking by
the Company of a record of its stockholders for the purpose of determining
stockholders who are entitled to receive payment of any dividend (other than a
cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire any share of any class or any other securities or property,
or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining stockholders
who are entitled to vote in connection with any proposed merger or
consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation, or any
proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company, or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company, the Company shall mail to the holder of the Warrant, at least twenty
(20) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on
which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right.

         5.      Notice of Adjustments.  Whenever the Warrant Price shall be
adjusted pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Company shall within thirty
(30) days of such adjustment deliver a certificate signed by its chief
financial officer to the registered holder(s) hereof setting forth, in
reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the
adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Warrant
Price after giving effect to such adjustment.

         6.      Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Preferred Stock
will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such
fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis
of the Warrant Price then in effect.

         7.      Compliance with Securities Act; Disposition of Warrant or
Shares of Preferred Stock.

         (a)  Compliance with Securities Act.  The holder of this Warrant, by
acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, the shares of Preferred Stock to
be issued upon exercise hereof and the Common Stock to be issued upon
conversion of such Preferred Stock are being acquired for investment and that
such holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any
shares of Preferred Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof (or Common Stock
issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock) except under circumstances which

"Act").  This Warrant and all shares of Preferred Stock issued upon exercise of
this Warrant (unless registered under the Act) shall be stamped or imprinted
with a legend in substantially the following form:

                 THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
                 OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  NO SALE OR DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED
                 WITHOUT (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED
                 THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, REASONABLY
                 SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY' THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT
                 REQUIRED OR (iii) RECEIPT OF A NO-ACTION LETTER FROM THE

                 REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT IS NOT REQUIRED.

         (b)  Disposition of Warrant and Shares.  With respect to any offer,
sale or other disposition of this Warrant or any shares of Preferred Stock
acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant (or Common Stock issued upon
conversion of such Preferred Stock) prior to registration of such shares, the
holders hereof and each subsequent holder of the Warrant agrees to give written
notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof,
together with a written opinion of such holder's counsel, if reasonably
requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other
disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the
Act as then in effect or any federal or state law then in effect) of this
Warrant or such shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock and indicating
whether or not under the Act certificates for this Warrant or such shares of
Preferred Stock or Common Stock to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any
restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to
insure compliance with the Act.  Each certificate representing this Warrant or
the shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock thus transferred (except a
transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to the applicable
restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Act,
unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel for the holder, such legend is not
required in order to insure compliance with the Act.

in connection with the foregoing restrictions.

entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Preferred
Stock or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable
on the exercise thereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be
construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, 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 receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription
rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Shares

information is only assignable to affiliates of the original holder of this
Warrant.

continuing obligation of the Company to the holder hereof in respect of such
rights.
