6 JAKKS PACIFIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 1999 Note 1 - Basis of presentation The accompanying 1998 and 1999 unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-KSB, which contains financial information for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998. The information provided in this report reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring accruals) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results of operations for this period. The results for this period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Basic earnings per share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares. Diluted earnings per share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents (which consist of warrants, options and convertible securities, to the extent they are dilutive). 6

AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) June 30, 1999 Note 2 -- Earnings per share In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." This statement establishes simplified standards for computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS). It requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for entities with complex capital structures and disclosure of the calculation of each EPS amount.

8 JAKKS PACIFIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto which appear elsewhere herein. OVERVIEW JAKKS was founded to develop, produce and market children's toys and related products. We commenced business operations when we assumed operating control over the toy business of Justin Products Limited ("Justin"), and have included the results of Justin's operations in our consolidated financial statements from July 1, 1995, the effective date of that acquisition. The Justin product lines, which consisted primarily of fashion dolls and accessories and electronic products for children, accounted for substantially all of our net sales for the period from April 1, 1995 (inception) to December 31, 1995. One of our key strategies has been to grow through the acquisition or licensing of product lines, concepts and characters. In 1996, we expanded our product lines to include products based on licensed characters and properties, such as World Wrestling Federation action figures and accessories. We acquired Road Champs in February 1997, and have included the results of operations of Road Champs from February 1, 1997, the effective date of the acquisition. We acquired the Child Guidance and Remco trademarks in October 1997, both of which contributed to operations nominally in 1997, but contributed more significantly to operations commencing in 1998. In June 1999, we acquired Berk Corporation with its lines of educational toy foam puzzle mats and activity sets. We expect Berk to contribute modestly beginning in the third quarter of 1999. Our products currently include (1) toys and action figures featuring licensed characters, including popular wrestling characters under our World Wrestling Federation license, (2) die-cast collectible and toy vehicles marketed under our Road Champs and Remco brand names, (3) pre-school electronic toys marketed under our Child Guidance brand name, (4) educational toy foam puzzles, mats and activity sets, and (5) fashion dolls and related accessories. In general, we acquire products or product concepts from others or we engage unaffiliated third parties to develop our own products, thus minimizing operating costs. Royalties payable to our developers generally range from 1% to 6% of the wholesale price for each unit of a product sold by us. We expect that outside inventors will continue to be a source of new products in the future. We also generate internally new product concepts, for which we pay no royalties. In June 1998, we formed a joint venture with THQ Inc., a developer, publisher and distributor of interactive entertainment software, and the joint venture licensed the rights from Titan Sports, Inc. to publish World Wrestling Federation electronic video game software on all platforms. The license agreement permits the joint venture to release these games after November 16, 1999. We expect that the first game produced under this license will be released in late 1999. We also expect that JAKKS and THQ Inc. will share equally any profits generated by the joint venture. We contract the manufacture of most of our products to unaffiliated manufacturers located in China. We sell the finished products on a letter of credit basis or on open account to our customers, who take title to the goods in Hong Kong. These methods allow us to reduce certain operating costs and working capital requirements. A portion of our sales, primarily sales of our Road Champs products, originate in the United States, so we hold certain inventory in a warehouse and fulfillment facility operated by an unaffiliated third party. In addition, we hold inventory of other products from time to time in support of promotions or other domestic programs with retailers. To date, substantially all of our sales have been to domestic customers. We intend to expand distribution of our products into foreign territories and, accordingly, we have (1) engaged a representative to oversee sales in certain territories, (2) engaged distributors in certain territories, and (3) established direct relationships with retailers in certain territories. We establish reserves for sales allowances, including promotional allowances and allowances for anticipated defective product returns, at the time of shipment. The reserves are determined as a percentage of net sales based upon either historical experience or on estimates or programs agreed upon by our customers. 8
9 Our cost of sales consists primarily of the cost of goods produced for us by unaffiliated third-party manufacturers, royalties earned by licensors on the sale of these goods and amortization of the tools, dies and molds owned by us that are used in the manufacturing process. Other costs include inbound freight and provisions for obsolescence. Significant factors affecting our cost of sales as a percentage of net sales include (1) the proportion of net sales generated by various products with disparate gross margins, (2) the proportion of net sales made domestically, which typically carry higher gross margins than sales made in Hong Kong, and (3) the effect of amortizing the fixed cost components of cost of sales, primarily amortization of tools, dies and molds, over varying levels of net sales. Selling, general and administrative expenses include costs directly associated with the selling process, such as sales commissions, advertising and travel expenses, as well as general corporate expenses, goodwill and trademark amortization and product development. We have recorded goodwill of approximately $15.3 million and trademarks of approximately $14.4 million in connection with acquisitions made to date. Goodwill is being amortized over a 30-year period, while trademark acquisition costs are being amortized over periods ranging from 10 to 30 years. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following unaudited table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain statement of operations data as a percentage of net sales. THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, JUNE 30, ------------------ ----------------- 1998 1999 1998 1999 ------ ------ ------ ------ Net sales............................................. 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales......................................... 62.1 59.3 61.5 58.3 ----- ----- ------ ----- Gross profit.......................................... 37.9 40.7 38.5 41.7 Selling, general and administrative expenses.......... 29.1 29.0 30.4 30.3 ----- ----- ------ ----- Income from operations................................ 8.8 11.7 8.1 11.4 Interest, net.........................................

Net sales increased $19.9 million, or 123%, to $36.0 million in 1999 from $16.1 million in 1998. The significant growth in net sales was due primarily to the continuing growth of the World Wrestling Federation product line with its expanded product offerings in the action figures and accessories categories and frequent character releases, as well as to increasing sales of Child Guidance pre-school toys and fashion and holiday dolls. Contributions made by sales of Road Champs die-cast toy and collectible vehicles and Remco toy vehicles were comparable with the prior year. Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $8.5 million, or 139%, to $14.6 million in 1999, or 40.7% of net sales, from $6.1 million, or 37.9% of net sales, in 1998. The overall increase in gross profit was attributable to the significant increase in net sales. The increase in the gross profit margin of 2.8% of net sales was due in part to the changing product mix, which included products, such as World Wrestling Federation action figures, with higher margins than some of our other products, and the amortization expense of molds and tools used in the manufacture of our products, which decreased on a percentage basis due to the fixed nature of these costs. The higher margin resulting from lower product costs was offset in part by higher royalties. 9
10 Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.7 million, or 122%, to $10.4 million, or 29.0% of net sales, in 1999, from $4.7 million, or 29.1% of net sales, in 1998. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased nominally as a percentage of net sales due in part to the fixed nature of certain of these expenses, which were offset in part by increases in advertising expenses and product development costs of our various products in 1999. The overall dollar increase of $5.7 million was due to the significant increase in net sales with their proportionate impact on variable selling costs, such as freight and shipping related expenses, sales commissions, cooperative advertising and travel expenses. We produced television commercials in support of several of our products, including World Wrestling Federation action figures, in 1998 and 1999. From time to time, we may increase our advertising efforts, including the use of more expensive advertising media, such as television, if we deem it appropriate for particular products. Interest, Net. We had significantly lower interest-bearing obligations in 1999 than in 1998 with the conversion of our 9% convertible debentures in 1999. In addition, we had significantly higher average cash balances during 1999 than in 1998 due to the net proceeds from the sale of our common stock in May 1999. Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes included Federal, state and foreign income taxes in 1998 and 1999, at effective tax rates of 27.2% in 1998 and 26.9% in 1999, benefiting from a flat 16.5% Hong Kong Corporation Tax on our income arising in, or derived from, Hong Kong. As of December 31, 1998, we had deferred tax assets of approximately $493,000 for which no allowance has been provided since, in the opinion of management, realization of the future benefit is probable. In making this determination, management considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, as well as the weight and importance given to such evidence. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 Net Sales. Net sales increased $33.8 million, or 124%, to $60.9 million in 1999 from $27.1 million in 1998. The significant growth in net sales was due primarily to the continuing growth of the World Wrestling Federation product line with its expanded product offerings in the action figures and accessories categories and frequent character releases, as well as to increasing sales of Child Guidance pre-school toys and fashion and holiday dolls. Contributions made by sales of Road Champs die-cast toy and collectible vehicles and Remco toy vehicles were comparable with the prior year. Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $14.9 million, or 143%, to $25.4 million in 1999, or 41.7% of net sales, from $10.5 million, or 38.5% of net sales, in 1998. The overall increase in gross profit was attributable to the significant increase in net sales. The increase in the gross profit margin of 3.2% of net sales was due in part to the changing product mix, which included products, such as World Wrestling Federation action figures, with higher margins than some of our other products, and the amortization expense of molds and tools used in the manufacture of our products, which decreased on a percentage basis due to the fixed nature of these costs. The higher margin resulting from lower product costs was offset in part by higher royalties. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $10.1 million, or 123%, to $18.4 million, or 30.3% of net sales, in 1999, from $8.3 million, or 30.4% of net sales, in 1998. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased nominally as a percentage of net sales due in part to the fixed nature of certain of these expenses, which were offset in part by increases in advertising expenses and product development costs of our various products in 1999. The overall dollar increase of $10.1 million was due to the significant increase in net sales with their proportionate impact on variable selling costs, such as freight and shipping related expenses, sales commissions, cooperative advertising and travel expenses. We produced television commercials in support of several of our products, including World Wrestling Federation action figures, in 1998 and 1999. From time to time, we may increase our advertising efforts, including the use of more expensive advertising media, such as television, if we deem it appropriate for particular products. Interest, Net. We had significantly lower interest-bearing obligations in 1999 than in 1998 with the conversion of our 9% convertible debentures in 1999. In addition, we had significantly higher average cash balances during 1999 than in 1998 due to the net proceeds from the sale of our common stock in May 1999. Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes included Federal, state and foreign income taxes in 1998 and 1999, at effective tax rates of 26.3% in 1998 and 26.9% in 1999, benefiting from a flat 16.5% Hong Kong Corporation Tax on our income arising in, or derived from, Hong Kong. As of December 31, 1998, we had deferred tax assets of approximately $493,000 for which no allowance has been provided since, in the opinion of management, realization of the future benefit is probable. In making this determination, management considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, as well as the weight and importance given to such evidence. 10
11 SEASONALITY The retail toy industry is inherently seasonal. Generally, in the past, the Company's sales have been highest during the third and fourth quarters, and collections for those sales have been highest during the succeeding fiscal quarters. The Company's working capital needs have been highest during the third and fourth quarters. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of June 30, 1999, we had working capital of $66.8 million, as compared to $13.7 million as of December 31, 1998. This increase was primarily attributable to the sale of our common stock in May 1999 as well as to our operating activities. Operating activities provided net cash of $5.5 million in 1999 as compared to using net cash of $0.5 million in 1998. Net cash was provided primarily by net income and non-cash charges, such as depreciation, amortization and recognition of compensation expense for options, as well as a decrease in accounts receivable and increases in operating liabilities, which were offset in part by an increase in inventory. As of June 30, 1999, we had cash and cash equivalents of $64.2 million. Our investing activities used net cash of $7.9 million in 1999, as compared to $3.0 million in 1998, consisting primarily of the purchase of molds and tooling used in the manufacture of our products in 1999 and 1998 and goodwill acquired in the Berk Acquisition in 1999. As part of our strategy to develop and market new products, we have entered into various character and product licenses with royalties ranging from 1% to 10% payable on net sales of such products. As of June 30, 1999, these agreements required future aggregate minimum guarantees of $17.2 million, exclusive of $1.2 million in advances already paid. Our financing activities provided net cash of $54.2 million in 1999, consisting primarily of the issuance of common stock pursuant to our public offering in May 1999 and the exercises of options and warrants, partially offset by dividends paid to holders of our Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock. In 1998, financing activities provided net cash of $3.0 million, consisting primarily of the issuance of our 7% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock partially offset by the repayment of various notes and other debt issued in connection with our acquisitions in 1997. In March and April 1999, the holders of $6.0 million principal amount of our 9.0% convertible debentures converted all such debentures into 1,043,479 shares of our common stock. In October 1997, we entered into a credit facility agreement with Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A. which provides our Hong Kong subsidiaries with a working capital line of credit and letters of credit for the purchase of products and the operation of those subsidiaries. The facility, which expired on May 31, 1999, had an overall limit of $5.0 million, but was subject to other limitations based on advance rates on letters of credit and open accounts receivable. We expect to seek an alternative facility. In April 1998, we received $4.7 million in net proceeds from the issuance of shares of our Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock to two investors in a private placement, which were converted into 558,658 shares of our common stock in June 1999. The use of proceeds was for working capital and general corporate purposes. In May 1999, we received $51.9 million in net proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock in a public offering. We believe that our cash flow from operations and cash and cash equivalents on hand will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements and provide us with adequate liquidity to meet our anticipated operating needs for at least the next 12 months. Although operating activities are expected to provide cash, to the extent we grow significantly in the future, our operating and investing activities may use cash and, consequently, this growth may require us to obtain additional sources of financing. There can be no assurance that any necessary additional financing will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. 11
12 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") recently issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. This statement establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes to equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. To date, we have not had any transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income. The FASB recently issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," which is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. This statement establishes standards for the way public business enterprises are to report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires those enterprises to report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. We operate in one reportable segment: the development, production and marketing of toys and related products. IMPACT OF THE YEAR 2000 Many currently installed computer systems and software products are dependent upon internal calendars coded to accept only two digit entries in the date code field. These date code fields will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish 21st century dates from 20th century dates. As a result, our computer systems and software may need to be upgraded to comply with Year 2000 requirements. Otherwise, system failures or miscalculations leading to disruptions in our operations could occur. We have taken actions to address this potential problem, including the identification of any non-compliant processes or systems and the implementation of corrective measures. We expect to replace internal software with non-compliant codes with software that is compliant by September 1999. We believe the financial reporting systems of our Hong Kong subsidiaries are Year 2000 compliant. Their systems were upgraded in 1998 in the normal course of business with software and hardware which the manufacturer has represented as being Year 2000 compliant. We are currently in the process of selecting a new software package in our corporate office which the manufacturer has represented as being Year 2000 compliant, and we believe it will be implemented by July 1999. We estimate the cost of this new software, including implementation and data conversion costs, to be approximately $60,000. Our other software is generally certified as Year 2000 compliant or is not considered critical to our operations. Other than the cost of the new software to be implemented in our corporate office, we have spent only nominal amounts on the Year 2000 issue, and we do not expect any significant future expenditures. Although we believe our cost estimates to be accurate, we cannot assure you that these costs will not increase or that the proposed solutions will be installed on schedule by the date estimated. We have addressed the Year 2000 preparedness of our critical suppliers and major customers and related electronic data interfaces with these third parties. We began in 1998, and are continuing our efforts, to contact critical suppliers and larger customers to determine whether they are, or will be, compliant by the Year 2000. Based on our evaluation and testing, these third parties are, or are expected to be, compliant by the Year 2000. However, we will continue to monitor the situation and we will formulate contingency plans to resolve customer-related issues that may arise. At this time we cannot estimate the impact that noncompliant suppliers and customers may have on us or our level of operations in the Year 2000. At present, we have not developed contingency plans, but we will determine whether to develop such plans when our assessment is completed. 12
13 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse changes in financial and commodity market prices and rates. We are exposed to market risk in the areas of changes in United States and international borrowing rates and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, we are exposed to market risk in certain geographic areas that have experienced or remain vulnerable to an economic downturn, such as China. We purchase substantially all of our inventory from companies in China, and, therefore, we are subject to the risk that such suppliers will be unable to provide inventory at competitive prices. While we believe that, if such an event were to occur we would be able to find alternative sources of inventory at competitive prices, we cannot assure you that we would be able to do so. These exposures are directly related to our normal operating and funding activities. Historically and as of June 30, 1999, we have not used derivative instruments or engaged in hedging activities to minimize our market risk. INTEREST RATE RISK As of June 30, 1999, we do not have any bank loan or other credit facility, nor do we have any outstanding debt securities, and, accordingly, we are not generally subject to any direct risk of loss arising from changes in interest rates. FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK We have wholly-owned subsidiaries in Hong Kong. Sales from these operations are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, purchases of inventory and operating expenses are typically denominated in Hong Kong dollars, thereby creating exposure to changes in exchange rates. Changes in the Hong Kong dollar/U.S. dollar exchange rate may positively or negatively affect our gross margins, operating income and retained earnings. The exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar has been fixed by the Hong Kong government since 1983 at HK$7.80 to US$1.00 and, accordingly, has not represented a currency exchange risk to the U.S. dollar. We do not believe that near-term changes in exchange rates, if any, will result in a material effect on our future earnings, fair values or cash flows, and therefore, we have chosen not to enter into foreign currency hedging transactions. We cannot assure you that this approach will be successful, especially in the event of a significant and sudden change in the value of the Hong Kong dollar. 13
14 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS On June 30, 1999, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 111,250 shares of its common stock to Titan Sports, Inc. and a warrant to purchase 13,750 shares of its common stock to Stanley Shenker Associates, Inc. Each warrant is exercisable by the holder thereof at any time until December 31, 2009 to purchase common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $10.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the event of certain changes to the Company's capital stock or certain transactions affecting the Company). The warrants were issued pursuant to a Consumer Products License Agreement between Titan Sports, Inc. and a joint venture limited liability company of which the Company is a member, in connection with the grant of certain trademark and other licenses and rights to the joint venture. No other consideration was paid to the Company in respect of the issuance of these warrants. Because the warrants were issued directly to the two holders pursuant to a privately negotiated commercial agreement, registration of the warrants (or the underlying common stock) was not required under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") by reason of the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Act for transactions by the issuer of the securities not involving any public offering.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK OF JAKKS PACIFIC, INC. Expiration Date: December 31, 2009 This Warrant Certificate certifies that Titan Sports, Inc. (the "Holder"), or registered assigns, is the registered holder of a Warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase 111,250 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), of JAKKS PACIFIC, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company'). This Warrant entitles the Holder upon exercise to purchase from the Company, during the Exercise Period (as defined below), that number of shares of fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock (the "Warrant Securities") set forth below. The exercise price (the "Exercise Price") at which shares of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant shall initially be $10.00 per share. Shares of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon (i) surrender of this Warrant with the form of election to purchase attached hereto properly completed and executed and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price at the office of the Company designated for such purpose, pursuant to and subject only to the conditions set forth in this Warrant.
2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon notice of an Acquisition Transaction (as defined in Section 7 hereof), this Warrant may be exercised without the exchange of funds pursuant to the net exercise provisions of Section 3(a) below. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events set forth herein. Section 1. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. (a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, this Warrant may be exchanged at the option of the Holder, when surrendered to the Company at its office, for another Warrant or other Warrants of like tenor and representing in the aggregate a like number of Warrant Securities. When this Warrant is surrendered for exchange it shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company. Upon due presentation for registration of exchange of this Warrant at the office of the Company, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrant Securities shall be issued, without charge, to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant, subject to the limitations set forth herein. (b) Without limiting the restrictions of Section 10 hereof, in connection with any Transfer (as defined below), the Holder shall, if required by the Company, obtain from counsel to such Holder (who may be in-house counsel for Titan Sports, Inc.) an opinion that the proposed Transfer of this Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") or applicable state securities law. When this Warrant is surrendered for Transfer it shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company. Upon due presentation for registration of Transfer of this Warrant at the office of the Company, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrant Securities shall be issued, without charge, to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant, subject to the limitations set forth herein. As used herein, "Transfer" means sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, mortgage, encumber, dispose by gift or bequest, or otherwise transfer or disposition. (c) The Company shall from time to time register the exchange or Transfer of this Warrant in a Warrant register to be maintained by the Company upon surrender of this Warrant accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of such exchange or Transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered holder or holders hereof. Section 2. Vesting of Warrant; Forfeiture. This Warrant shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable upon the execution hereof by the Company. Section 3. Exercise of Warrant. (a) Subject to the terms of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised commencing on the date of this Warrant and until 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on December 31, 2009 (the "Exercise Period"), to receive from the Company the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Securities which the Holder may at the time be entitled to -2-
3 receive on exercise of this Warrant and payment to the Company of the Exercise Price then in effect for such Warrant Securities. In the event the Holder receives notice of an Acquisition Transaction, the Holder may exercise its right to receive Warrant Securities on a net basis, such that, without the exchange of any funds, such Holder receives that number of Warrant Securities otherwise issuable or payable) upon exercise of this Warrant less that number of Warrant Securities having a Current Market Price (as defined in section 7(b) hereof) at the time of exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price that would otherwise have been paid by such Holder of this Warrant. If not exercised within the Exercise Period, this Warrant shall become void and all rights hereunder and all rights in respect hereof shall become void and shall cease as of such time. (b) No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant (or any portion hereof). All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or fraction hereof) by the Holder shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in cash equal to the Current Market Price, multiplied by such fraction on the date of exercise. (c) This Warrant may be exercised upon surrender to the Company at its office designated for such purpose (the address of which is set forth in Section 9 hereof) of this Warrant with the form of election to purchase duly filled in and signed, and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 7 hereof, for the number of Warrant Securities in respect of which this Warrant is then exercised. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be made (i) in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or wire transfer in immediately available funds to such account as shall be designated by the Company or (ii) in the event the Holder receives notice of an Acquisition Transaction, in the manner provided in Section 3(a) hereof. (d) Upon such surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price by the Holder, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered within three (3) business days to or upon the written order of the Holder and (subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof) in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In the event the name or names so designated are not that of the Holder, such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall (subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof) be deemed to have become a Holder of record of such Warrant Securities as of the date of the surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. (e) This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder, either in full or from time to time in part and, in the event that this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Securities issuable on such exercise at any time during the Exercise Period, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of this Warrant, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant but -3-
4 exercisable only for the balance of the Warrant Securities remaining subject to the Warrant, or, at the request of the Holder, appropriate notation may be made on this Warrant and such Warrant shall be returned to the Holder. (f) This Warrant shall also be conditionally exercisable, at the election of the Holder, so that if the Holder exercises this Warrant in contemplation of the consummation of a transaction described in any of clauses (i) - (iv) of Section 8(b) hereof and such transaction is not consummated, the Holder may elect to revoke such exercise, in which case this Warrant shall be deemed not to have been so exercised. (g) This Warrant shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company when surrendered upon exercise. The Company shall keep copies of this Warrant and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the Holder during normal business hours at its office. Section 4. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of Warrant Securities upon exercise of this Warrant. Section 5. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificate. In case this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution of this Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrant Securities, but only upon the Company's receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant and of suitable indemnification. Section 6. Reservation of Warrant Securities. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, a number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant at the then applicable Exercise Price, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite shareholder approval. The Company will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to Section 7 hereof to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any) of this Warrant Securities, the Company will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Securities at the Exercise Price as so adjusted. The Company covenants that all Warrant Securities which may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon issue, be fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issue thereof (other than any such rights, taxes, liens, charges or interests created or granted by Holder or any other person other than the Company). -4-
5 Section 7. Adjustment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of the events enumerated in this Section 7. For purposes of this Section 7, "Common Stock" means shares now or hereafter authorized of any class of common stock of the Company and any other stock of the Company, however designated, that has the right to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of the Company. (a) Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. If the Company (1) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its Common Stock, (2) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (3) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: E1 = E x O - A where: E1 = the adjusted Exercise Price. E = the current Exercise Price. O = the number of shares of all classes of Common Stock outstanding prior to such action. A = the number of shares of all classes of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such action. In the case of a dividend or distribution, the adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification, the adjustment shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such corporate action. If after an adjustment the Holder of this Warrant upon exercise hereof may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") shall determine in good faith the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the exercise privileges, the number of shares issuable upon such exercise and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 7. The adjustment required by this Section 7(a) shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. -5-
6 (b) Certain Definitions. (i) Current Market Price. The "Current Market Price" per share of Common Stock on any date is the average of the closing prices of the Common Stock for thirty (30) consecutive trading days commencing forty-five (45) trading days before the date in question. The term "closing price" of the Common Stock on any day, as indicated in the next day's Wall Street Journal if so reported in the Wall Street Journal (or if not reported in the Wall Street Journal, as reported by National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or, if not so reported, by a nationally recognized quotation service), shall be (A) the reported closing price (last sale price) of the Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, or (B) if the Common Stock is not listed on a stock exchange, the last sale price of the Common Stock on the principal automated securities price quotation system on which sale prices of the Common Stock are reported, or (C) if the Common Stock is not listed on a stock exchange and sale prices of the Common Stock are not reported on an automated quotation system, the mean of the final bid and asked prices for the Common Stock as reported by National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or any successor entity if at least two (2) securities dealers have inserted both bid and asked quotations for the Common Stock on at least five (5) of the ten (10) preceding trading days. If none of the foregoing provisions are applicable, the Current Market Price shall be determined by the Board in good faith, based upon the Fair Market Value of one hundred percent (100%) of the Company if sold as a going concern and without regard to any discount for the lack of liquidity or on the basis that the relevant shares of the Common Stock do not constitute a majority or controlling interest in the Company and assuming, if applicable, the exercise or conversion of all "in-the-money" warrants, convertible securities, options or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible or exchangeable into such capital stock that in any case may be entitled to participate in the proceeds of such sale. The term "trading day" shall mean (X) if the Common Stock is listed on at least one stock exchange, a day on which there is trading on the principal stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, (Y) if the Common Stock is not listed on a stock exchange 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. (2) Fair Market Value. The term "Fair Market Value" means the value obtainable upon a sale in an arm's length transaction to a third party under usual -6-
7 and normal circumstances, with neither the buyer nor the seller under any compulsion to act, with equity to both, as determined by the Board in good faith; provided, however, that if a Holder or Holders, who individually or in the aggregate own 66% or more of the Warrant Securities (collectively, a "Significant Holder"), shall dispute the Fair Market Value as determined by the Board, the Company shall retain an Independent Expert (as defined in Section 7(b)(3)), provided, however, that if the Significant Holder does not accept such Independent Expert, then the Company and the Significant Holder shall each select an Independent Expert and the two Independent Experts so selected shall select a third Independent Expert who shall determine the Fair Market Value. The determination of Fair Market Value by the Independent Expert shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Company and the Significant Holder. All costs and expenses of the Independent Expert shall be borne one-half by the Company and one-half by the Significant Holder. (3) Independent Expert. The term "Independent Expert" means an investment banking firm reasonably agreeable to the Company and the Significant Holder who does not (and whose affiliates do not) have a financial interest in the Company or any of its affiliates. (c) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled. (d) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Company shall provide the notices required by Section 8 hereof. (e) Reorganization of Company. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity, or the sale or lease of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another entity, other than in each case in connection with an Acquisition Transaction shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock of the Company shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, then, as a condition precedent to such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or lease, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable in such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or lease with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby had such rights been exercised immediately prior thereto, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect -7-
8 to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation, if applicable, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale or lease, unless prior to the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing or leasing such assets shall assume by written instrument, executed and mailed or delivered to the Holder at the last address thereof appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase. Notwithstanding any provision of the preceding paragraph to the contrary, upon consummation by the Company of an Acquisition Transaction, this Warrant shall terminate and cease to be exercisable. As used herein, "Acquisition Transaction" means a transaction in which (i) the Company sells or leases, in one or a series of related transactions, all or substantially all or the Company's assets to another entity and distributes the proceeds (or a portion of such proceeds) of such transaction to the holders of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (ii) not less than a majority of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock are changed into or sold or exchanged (whether pursuant to a recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, tender or exchange offer or otherwise) for a different kind of shares of common stock or other securities (of the Company or of another corporation or other entity) or for property, cash or any combination of securities, property or cash, other than in a transaction the sole purpose of which is to change the Company's domicile. (f) Form of Warrant. Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, any warrant heretofore or hereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in this Warrant. Section 8. Notices to Warrant Holders. (a) Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Company shall promptly thereafter cause to be given to the registered holder of this Warrant written notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth the number of Warrant Securities (or portion thereof) issuable after such adjustment in the Exercise Price, upon exercise of this Warrant and payment of the adjusted Exercise Price. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be mailed under the other provisions of this Section 8. (b) In the event (i) that the Company shall authorize the issuance of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or of any other subscription rights or warrants to any holders of shares of Common Stock, (ii) that the Company shall authorize the distribution to any holders of shares of Common Stock of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including without limitation regular cash dividends), (iii) of any -8-
9 consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the Company is required, or of the conveyance or transfer of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety, or of any reclassification or change of Common Stock 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 a tender offer or exchange offer made by the Company for shares of Common Stock, or (iv) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, then the Company shall cause to be given to the Holder, at least thirty (30) days prior to the applicable record date hereinafter specified (or such later date as notice is given to the holders of record of Common Stock), or promptly in the case of events for which there is no record date, a written notice stating (A) the date as of which the persons who will receive such rights, options, warrants or distribution is determined, (B) the initial expiration date set forth in any tender offer or exchange offer made by the Company for shares of Common Stock, (C) the date on which any such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or consummated, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange such shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or (D) the date on which any such issuance, sale, grant or distribution is expected to become effective or consummated. (c) The Company shall distribute to the Holder copies of all notices, materials, annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements, information statements and any other documents distributed generally to the holders of shares of Common Stock, at such times and by such method as such documents are distributed to such holders of shares of Common Stock provided that the Holder is subject to, or delivers to the Company, an undertaking satisfactory to the Company agreeing to maintain the confidentiality of any nonpublic information. (d) The Company shall deliver to the Holder written notice of the expiration of the Exercise Period of this Warrant. Such notice shall be delivered by the Company not less than thirty (30) days but not more than ninety (90) days prior to the existing expiration date of the Exercise Period of this Warrant.

The Company may not assign this Warrant or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Holder (which consent may be withheld for any reason in the sole discretion of such Holder), except that the Company may assign this Warrant in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, provided that the Company is not released from any of its obligations hereunder, and such assignee assumes all obligations of the Company hereunder. The Holder may not assign this Warrant (in whole or in part) or any rights or obligations hereunder (including, but not limited to, any right to receive any Warrant Securities then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) without the consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or withheld as to any transferee established to the satisfaction of the Company to be an individual or entity to whom the Warrant Securities may be issued by the Company without registration under the Act pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements. In addition, this Warrant may not be Transferred in whole or in part other than pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or an exemption from the registration provisions thereof.

Upon due presentation for registration of Transfer of this Warrant at the office of the Company, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrant Securities shall be issued, without charge, to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant, subject to the limitations set forth herein. As used herein, "Transfer" means sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, mortgage, encumber, dispose by gift or bequest, or otherwise transfer or disposition. (c) The Company shall from time to time register the exchange or Transfer of this Warrant in a Warrant register to be maintained by the Company upon surrender of this Warrant accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of such exchange or Transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered holder or holders hereof. Section 2. Vesting of Warrant; Forfeiture. This Warrant shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable upon the execution hereof by the Company. Section 3. Exercise of Warrant. (a) Subject to the terms of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised commencing on the date of this Warrant and until 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on December 31, 2009 (the "Exercise Period"), to receive from the Company the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Securities which the Holder may at the time be entitled to receive on exercise of this Warrant and payment to the Company of the Exercise Price then in effect for such Warrant Securities. In the event the Holder receives notice of an Acquisition Transaction, the Holder may exercise its right to receive Warrant Securities on a net basis, such that, without the exchange of any funds, such Holder receives that number of Warrant Securities otherwise issuable or payable) upon exercise of this Warrant less that number of Warrant Securities having a Current Market Price (as defined in section 7(b) hereof) at the time of -2-
3 exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price that would otherwise have been paid by such Holder of this Warrant. If not exercised within the Exercise Period, this Warrant shall become void and all rights hereunder and all rights in respect hereof shall become void and shall cease as of such time. (b) No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant (or any portion hereof). All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or fraction hereof) by the Holder shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in cash equal to the Current Market Price, multiplied by such fraction on the date of exercise. (c) This Warrant may be exercised upon surrender to the Company at its office designated for such purpose (the address of which is set forth in Section 9 hereof) of this Warrant with the form of election to purchase duly filled in and signed, and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 7 hereof, for the number of Warrant Securities in respect of which this Warrant is then exercised. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be made (i) in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or wire transfer in immediately available funds to such account as shall be designated by the Company or (ii) in the event the Holder receives notice of an Acquisition Transaction, in the manner provided in Section 3(a) hereof. (d) Upon such surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price by the Holder, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered within three (3) business days to or upon the written order of the Holder and (subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof) in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In the event the name or names so designated are not that of the Holder, such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall (subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof) be deemed to have become a Holder of record of such Warrant Securities as of the date of the surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. (e) This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder, either in full or from time to time in part and, in the event that this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Securities issuable on such exercise at any time during the Exercise Period, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of this Warrant, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant but exercisable only for the balance of the Warrant Securities remaining subject to the Warrant, or, at the request of the Holder, appropriate notation may be made on this Warrant and such Warrant shall be returned to the Holder. (f) This Warrant shall also be conditionally exercisable, at the election of the Holder, so that if the Holder exercises this Warrant in contemplation of the consummation of a -3-
4 transaction described in any of clauses (i) - (iv) of Section 8(b) hereof and such transaction is not consummated, the Holder may elect to revoke such exercise, in which case this Warrant shall be deemed not to have been so exercised. (g) This Warrant shall be canceled and disposed of by the Company when surrendered upon exercise. The Company shall keep copies of this Warrant and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the Holder during normal business hours at its office. Section 4. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of Warrant Securities upon exercise of this Warrant. Section 5. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificate. In case this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution of this Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrant Securities, but only upon the Company's receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant and of suitable indemnification. Section 6. Reservation of Warrant Securities. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, a number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant at the then applicable Exercise Price, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite shareholder approval. The Company will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to Section 7 hereof to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any) of this Warrant Securities, the Company will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Securities at the Exercise Price as so adjusted. The Company covenants that all Warrant Securities which may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon issue, be fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issue thereof (other than any such rights, taxes, liens, charges or interests created or granted by Holder or any other person other than the Company). Section 7. Adjustment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of the events enumerated in this Section 7. For purposes of this Section 7, "Common Stock" means shares now or hereafter authorized of any class of common stock of the Company and any other stock of the Company, however designated, that has the right to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of the Company. -4-
5 (a) Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. If the Company (1) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its Common Stock, (2) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (3) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: E1 = E x O - A where: E1 = the adjusted Exercise Price. E = the current Exercise Price. O = the number of shares of all classes of Common Stock outstanding prior to such action. A = the number of shares of all classes of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such action. In the case of a dividend or distribution, the adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification, the adjustment shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such corporate action. If after an adjustment the Holder of this Warrant upon exercise hereof may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") shall determine in good faith the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the exercise privileges, the number of shares issuable upon such exercise and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 7. The adjustment required by this Section 7(a) shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. (b) Certain Definitions. (i) Current Market Price. The "Current Market Price" per share of Common Stock on any date is the average of the closing prices of the Common Stock for thirty (30) consecutive trading days commencing forty-five (45) trading days before the date in question. The term "closing price" of the Common Stock on any day, as indicated in the next day's Wall Street Journal if so reported in the Wall Street Journal (or if not -5-
6 reported in the Wall Street Journal, as reported by National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or, if not so reported, by a nationally recognized quotation service), shall be (A) the reported closing price (last sale price) of the Common Stock on the principal stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, or (B) if the Common Stock is not listed on a stock exchange, the last sale price of the Common Stock on the principal automated securities price quotation system on which sale prices of the Common Stock are reported, or (C) if the Common Stock is not listed on a stock exchange and sale prices of the Common Stock are not reported on an automated quotation system, the mean of the final bid and asked prices for the Common Stock as reported by National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or any successor entity if at least two (2) securities dealers have inserted both bid and asked quotations for the Common Stock on at least five (5) of the ten (10) preceding trading days. If none of the foregoing provisions are applicable, the Current Market Price shall be determined by the Board in good faith, based upon the Fair Market Value of one hundred percent (100%) of the Company if sold as a going concern and without regard to any discount for the lack of liquidity or on the basis that the relevant shares of the Common Stock do not constitute a majority or controlling interest in the Company and assuming, if applicable, the exercise or conversion of all "in-the-money" warrants, convertible securities, options or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible or exchangeable into such capital stock that in any case may be entitled to participate in the proceeds of such sale. The term "trading day" shall mean (X) if the Common Stock is listed on at least one stock exchange, a day on which there is trading on the principal stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, (Y) if the Common Stock is not listed on a stock exchange 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. (2) Fair Market Value. The term "Fair Market Value" means the value obtainable upon a sale in an arm's length transaction to a third party under usual and normal circumstances, with neither the buyer nor the seller under any compulsion to act, with equity to both, as determined by the Board in good faith; provided, however, that if a Holder or Holders, who individually or in the aggregate own 66% or more of the Warrant Securities (collectively, a "Significant Holder"), shall dispute the Fair Market Value as determined by the Board, the Company shall retain an Independent Expert (as defined in Section 7(b)(3)), provided, however, that if the Significant Holder does not accept such Independent Expert, then the Company and the Significant Holder shall each -6-
7 select an Independent Expert and the two Independent Experts so selected shall select a third Independent Expert who shall determine the Fair Market Value. The determination of Fair Market Value by the Independent Expert shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Company and the Significant Holder. All costs and expenses of the Independent Expert shall be borne one-half by the Company and one-half by the Significant Holder. (3) Independent Expert. The term "Independent Expert" means an investment banking firm reasonably agreeable to the Company and the Significant Holder who does not (and whose affiliates do not) have a financial interest in the Company or any of its affiliates. (c) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled. (d) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Company shall provide the notices required by Section 8 hereof. (e) Reorganization of Company. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity, or the sale or lease of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another entity, other than in each case in connection with an Acquisition Transaction shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock of the Company shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, then, as a condition precedent to such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or lease, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable in such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or lease with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby had such rights been exercised immediately prior thereto, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation, if applicable, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale or lease, unless prior to the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing or leasing such assets shall assume by written instrument, executed and -7-
8 mailed or delivered to the Holder at the last address thereof appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase. Notwithstanding any provision of the preceding paragraph to the contrary, upon consummation by the Company of an Acquisition Transaction, this Warrant shall terminate and cease to be exercisable. As used herein, "Acquisition Transaction" means a transaction in which (i) the Company sells or leases, in one or a series of related transactions, all or substantially all or the Company's assets to another entity and distributes the proceeds (or a portion of such proceeds) of such transaction to the holders of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (ii) not less than a majority of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock are changed into or sold or exchanged (whether pursuant to a recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, tender or exchange offer or otherwise) for a different kind of shares of common stock or other securities (of the Company or of another corporation or other entity) or for property, cash or any combination of securities, property or cash, other than in a transaction the sole purpose of which is to change the Company's domicile. (f) Form of Warrant. Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, any warrant heretofore or hereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in this Warrant. Section 8. Notices to Warrant Holders. (a) Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Company shall promptly thereafter cause to be given to the registered holder of this Warrant written notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth the number of Warrant Securities (or portion thereof) issuable after such adjustment in the Exercise Price, upon exercise of this Warrant and payment of the adjusted Exercise Price. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be mailed under the other provisions of this Section 8. (b) In the event (i) that the Company shall authorize the issuance of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or of any other subscription rights or warrants to any holders of shares of Common Stock, (ii) that the Company shall authorize the distribution to any holders of shares of Common Stock of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including without limitation regular cash dividends), (iii) of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the Company is required, or of the conveyance or transfer of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety, or of any reclassification or change of Common Stock 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 a tender offer or exchange offer made by the Company for shares of Common Stock, or (iv) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, then the Company shall cause to be given to the Holder, at least thirty (30) days prior -8-
9 to the applicable record date hereinafter specified (or such later date as notice is given to the holders of record of Common Stock), or promptly in the case of events for which there is no record date, a written notice stating (A) the date as of which the persons who will receive such rights, options, warrants or distribution is determined, (B) the initial expiration date set forth in any tender offer or exchange offer made by the Company for shares of Common Stock, (C) the date on which any such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or consummated, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange such shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or (D) the date on which any such issuance, sale, grant or distribution is expected to become effective or consummated. (c) The Company shall distribute to the Holder copies of all notices, materials, annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements, information statements and any other documents distributed generally to the holders of shares of Common Stock, at such times and by such method as such documents are distributed to such holders of shares of Common Stock provided that the Holder is subject to, or delivers to the Company, an undertaking satisfactory to the Company agreeing to maintain the confidentiality of any nonpublic information. (d) The Company shall deliver to the Holder written notice of the expiration of the Exercise Period of this Warrant. Such notice shall be delivered by the Company not less than thirty (30) days but not more than ninety (90) days prior to the existing expiration date of the Exercise Period of this Warrant.

10 Section 10. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns. The Company may not assign this Warrant or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Holder (which consent may be withheld for any reason in the sole discretion of such Holder), except that the Company may assign this Warrant in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, provided that the Company is not released from any of its obligations hereunder, and such assignee assumes all obligations of the Company hereunder. The Holder may not assign this Warrant (in whole or in part) or any rights or obligations hereunder (including, but not limited to, any right to receive any Warrant Securities then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) without the consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or withheld as to any transferee established to the satisfaction of the Company to be an individual or entity to whom the Warrant Securities may be issued by the Company without registration under the Act pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements. In addition, this Warrant may not be Transferred in whole or in part other than pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or an exemption from the registration provisions thereof. Each Warrant issued upon any such Transfer shall bear the restrictive legend set forth at the beginning hereof, unless the Holder delivers to the Company an opinion of counsel to the effect that such legend is not required for the purposes of compliance with the Act.
