combination.
4.2 Common Stock Dividends. If the Company at any time while
this
Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall

multiplying the Purchase 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 Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such dividend or
distribution, and (ii) the denominator of
which shall be the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such dividend or
distribution.
4.3 Other Dividends. If the Company at any time while this
Warrant
is outstanding and unexpired shall pay a
dividend or make any other distribution

shall be entitled to receive, upon
exercise of the Warrants, in addition to
the shares of Common Stock otherwise
receivable upon exercise hereof, the same
number and kind of stock other
securities and property which the Holder
would have received had the holder then
held the shares of Common Stock receivable
on exercise hereof on and before the
record date for such dividend or
distribution.
4.4 Reclassifications and Recapitalizations. In the event of
any
reclassification or recapitalization of the
Common Stock, the Purchase Price
shall be appropriately adjusted in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the
Company to reflect such reclassification or
recapitalization and to protect the
rights of Holders of the Warrants to
receive upon the exercise thereof the same
amount of securities or property that they
would have received had they
exercised their Warrants immediately prior
to the date for determination of
holders of Common Stock entitled to receive
securities or property as a result
of such reclassification or
recapitalization, and their rights to appropriate
adjustments upon any further stock
dividend, stock split, reclassification or
recapitalization.
4.5 Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the
Purchase Price pursuant to Section 4.1 or
Section 4.2 above, the Holder shall
thereafter, on the exercise of this
Warrant, be entitled to receive that number
of shares of Common Stock which would be
issuable on such exercise as of
immediately prior to such adjustment
multiplied by a fraction of (i) the
numerator of which shall be the Purchase
Price immediately prior to such
adjustment, and (ii) the denominator of
which shall be the Purchase Price
immediately after such adjustment.
4.6 Capital Reorganization, Merger or Sale of Assets. If at any
time
or from time to time there shall be a
capital reorganization of the Common Stock

Company with or into another corporation,
or the sale of all or substantially
all of the Company's properties and assets
to any other person, after receiving
a thirty (30) day prior written notice from
the Company of such an event, the
Holder of this Warrant Certificate shall
thereafter be entitled to purchase (and
it shall be a condition to the consummation
of any such reorganization, merger,
consolidation or sale, that appropriate
provision be made so that the holders of
the Warrants shall thereafter be entitled
to purchase), upon exercise of the
Warrants, the kind and amount of shares of
stock or other securities or property
of the Company, or of the successor

consolidation or sale, to which a holder of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise

or sale. In any such case,
3
<PAGE>
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the
application of the provisions of
this Section 4 with respect to the rights
of the holders of the Warrants after
the reorganization, merger, consolidation
or sale to the end that the provisions
of this Section 4 (including adjustment of
the Purchase Price then in effect and
the number of shares purchasable upon
exercise of the Warrants) shall be
applicable after that event in as nearly
equivalent a manner as may be
practicable.
4.7 Certificate as to Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or readjustment of the Purchase
Price pursuant to this Section 4, the
Company, at its expense, shall promptly
compute such adjustment or readjustment
in accordance with the terms hereof and
cause its chief financial officer to
verify such computation and prepare and
furnish to each Holder of the Warrants a
certificate setting forth such adjustment
or readjustment and showing in detail
the facts upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based. The Company
shall, upon the written request at any time
of any Holder of the Warrants,
furnish or cause to be furnished to such
Holder a like certificate setting forth
(A) such adjustment and readjustment, (B)
the Purchase Price at the time in
effect, and (C) the number of shares of
Common Stock and the amount, if any, of
other securities and/or property which at
the time would be receivable upon the
exercise of a Warrant. Such certificate
shall set forth in reasonable detail
such facts as may be necessary to show the
reason for and manner of computing
such adjustment. If demanded by the Holders
of more than 10% of the total
outstanding Warrants, the Company shall
provide the Holders of the Warrants a
verification or confirmation of the
calculation of such adjustment signed by an
independent certificate public accountant,
which may be the firm of independent
certified public accountants servicing the
Company.
4.8 No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its
Articles 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 Section 4 and in the
taking of all such action as may be
necessary or appropriate in order to
protect the exercise rights of the Holders
against impairment.
4.9 Notices of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the
Company of a record of the Holders of any
class of securities for the purpose of
determining the Holders thereof who are
entitled to receive any dividend (other
than a cash dividend) or other
distribution, any rights to subscribe for,
purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of
stock of any class or for any
securities or property, or to receive any
other right, this Company shall mail
to each Holder, at least thirty (30) 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.
4.10 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares shall be issued
upon
exercise of the Warrants, and the number of
shares of Common Stock to be issued
shall be rounded to the nearest whole
share. Such rounding shall be determined
on the basis of the total number of
Warrants the Holder is at the time
exercising and the number of shares of
