the holder hereof, (i) the surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of
exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed) at the principal
                                 ---------
office of the Company and by the payment to the Company, by check, of an amount

                    (i)  In lieu of exercising this Warrant, the holder hereof
may elect to receive shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion
thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of
the Company together with notice of such election in which event the Company
shall issue to Holder a number of shares of the Company's Preferred Stock
computed using the following formula:

                         X = Y(A - B)
                             --------
                                A

Where     X = The number of shares of Preferred Stock to be issued to Holder.

                                      -2-

          Y = the number of shares of Preferred Stock purchasable under this
Warrant.

          A = the fair market value of one share of the Company's Preferred
Stock.

          B = Warrant Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations).

                    (ii)  For purposes of this Section, fair market value of the
Company's Preferred Stock shall mean (A) the average of the closing bid and
asked prices of the Company's Preferred Stock quoted in the Over-The-Counter

Stock is listed, if applicable, as published in the Western Edition of The Wall

--------------
fair market value, or (C) the price determined by the Company's Board of
Directors, acting in good faith upon a review of all relevant factors.

          (c)  Company's Option Upon Registered Offering.  In the event of the
               -----------------------------------------                     
initial registered public offering by the Company of its Common Stock effected
pursuant to a Registered Statement on Form S-1 (or its successor) filed under
the Securities Act of 1933, the Company will have the option, but not the
obligation, to purchase for cash immediately prior to the issuance of such
shares in such offering this Warrant for a price per Share equal to the
difference between (x) the Net Per Share Price (as defined below) of the stock
being issued in such offering and (y) the Warrant Price.   For the purpose of
this Paragraph the term ("NET PER SHARE PRICE") shall mean the proceeds to be

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

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

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

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 reclassification, changes, mergers and transfers.

               (b) Subdivisions or Combination of Shares.  If the Company at any
                   -------------------------------------                       
time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or
combine its Common Stock, the Warrant Price and the number of Shares issuable
upon exercise hereof shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate
exercise price of this Warrant shall at all time remains equal.

               (c)  Stock Dividends.  If the Company at any time while this
                    ---------------
Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall pay a dividend payable in shares of
Common 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 shareholders 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
(i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Preferred
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (ii)
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
                    -------------                                           
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 action 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
                    ----------------------

cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or

to receive any other right, or for the purpose of determining shareholders 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

                                      -4-

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

               ---------------------                                     
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
               -----------------

fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis
of the Warrant Price then in effect.

               -------------------
