Company who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be
such officer of the Company before the date of issuance of the Warrant
Certificates or before countersignature by the Warrant Agent and issue and
delivery thereof, such Warrant Certificates, nevertheless, may be countersigned

         SECTION 4.  Exercise.

                     (a)   Warrants in denominations of one or whole number 
multiples thereof may be exercised commencing at any time on or after the
Initial Warrant Exercise Date, but not after the Warrant Expiration Date or the
Redemption Date, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein
(including the provisions set forth in Sections 5 and 9 hereof) and in the
applicable Warrant Certificate. A Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised
immediately prior to the close of business on the Exercise Date, provided that
the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrant, with the exercise form
thereon duly executed by the Registered Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, together with payment in cash or by check made payable to
the Warrant Agent for the account of the Company of an amount in lawful money of
the United States of America equal to the applicable Purchase Price, has been
received by the Warrant Agent. The person entitled to receive the securities
deliverable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder
of such securities as of the close of business on the Exercise Date. As soon as
practicable on or after the Exercise Date, the Warrant Agent on behalf of the
Company shall cause to be issued to the person or persons entitled to receive
the same a Common Stock certificate or certificates for the shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon such exercise, and the Warrant Agent shall deliver the
same to the person or persons entitled thereto. Upon the exercise of any
Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of such
fact and of the number of securities delivered upon such exercise and, subject
to Section 4(b) hereof, shall cause all payments in cash or by check made
payable to the order of the Company in respect of the Purchase Price to be
deposited promptly in the Company's bank account.

                     (b)   At any time upon the exercise of any Warrants after 
the Initial Warrant Exercise Date, the Warrant Agent shall, on a daily basis,
within two (2) business days after any such exercise, notify The Boston Group,
L.P. or its successors or assigns of the exercise of any such Warrants and
shall, on a weekly basis (subject to collection of funds constituting the
tendered Purchase Price, but in no event later than five (5) business days after
the last day of the calendar week in which such funds were tendered), remit to
The Boston Group, L.P. or its successors or assigns an amount equal to four
percent (4%) of the Purchase Price of such Warrants being then exercised unless
The Boston Group, L.P. or its successors or assigns shall have notified the
Warrant Agent that the payment of such amount with respect to any such Warrant
is violative of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the rules and regulations
of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD") or
applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws, in any of which events the
Warrant Agent shall have to pay such amount 


                                       -5-
   6

to the Company; provided, however, that the Warrant Agent shall not be obligated
to pay any amounts pursuant to this Section 4(b) during any week that such
amounts payable are less than one thousand dollars ($1,000) and the Warrant
Agent's obligation to make such payments shall be suspended until the amount
payable aggregates one thousand dollars ($1,000), and provided further, that, in
any event, any such payment (regardless of amount) shall be made not less
frequently than monthly. Under current rules of the NASD, amounts can be paid to
The Boston Group, L.P. upon any exercise of a Warrant under this Section 4(b)
only if (i) the market price of the Company's Common Stock is greater than the
then Purchase Price of the Warrants, (ii) the exercise of the Warrant was
solicited by a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
("NASD"), (iii) the Warrant was not held in a discretionary account, (iv)
disclosure of compensation arrangements has been made in documents provided to
customers both as part of the original offering and at the time of exercise and
(v) the solicitation of the exercise of the Warrant was not in violation of Rule
10b-6 (as such rule or any successor rule may be in effect as of such time of
exercise) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The provisions
of this Section 4(b) may not be modified, amended or deleted without the prior
written consent of The Boston Group, L.P.

                      (c)   The Company shall not be obligated to issue any 
fractional share interests or fractional warrant interests upon the exercise of
any Warrant or Warrants, nor shall it be obligated to issue scrip or pay cash in
lieu of fractional interests. Any fraction equal to or greater than one-half
shall be rounded up to the next full share or Warrant, as the case may be. Any
fraction less than one-half shall be eliminated.

         SECTION 5.   Reservation of Shares; Listing, Payment of Taxes; etc.

                      (a)   The Company covenants that it will at all times 
reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the
purpose of issuance upon the exercise of Warrants, such number of shares of
Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding
Warrants. The Company covenants that, upon exercise of the Warrants and payment
of the Purchase Price for the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants,
all shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be
duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, free from all preemptive or
similar rights, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
issuance thereof, and that upon issuance such shares shall be listed or quoted
on each securities exchange or NASDAQ, if any, on which the other shares of
outstanding Common Stock of the Company are then listed.

                      (b)   The Company covenants that if any securities 
reserved for the purpose of exercise of Warrants hereunder require registration
with, or approval of, any governmental 


                                       -6-
   7

authority under any federal securities law before such securities may be validly
issued or delivered upon such exercise, then the Company will file a
registration statement under the federal securities laws or a post-effective
amendment to a registration statement, use its best efforts to cause the same to
become effective, keep such registration statement current while any of the
Warrants are outstanding and deliver a prospectus which complies with Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), to the
Registered Holder exercising the Warrant (except, if in the opinion of counsel
to the Company, such registration is not required under the federal securities
law or if the Company receives a letter from the staff of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") stating that it would not take any
enforcement action if such registration is not effected). The Company will use
its best efforts to obtain appropriate approvals or registrations under the
state "blue sky" securities laws of all states in which Registered Holders
reside. Warrants may not be exercised by, nor may shares of Common Stock be
issued to, any Registered Holder in any state in which such exercise would be
unlawful.

                      (c)   The Company shall pay all documentary, stamp or 
similar taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to
the issuance of Warrants, or the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common
Stock upon exercise of the Warrants; provided, however, that if shares of Common
Stock are to be delivered in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder
of the Warrant Certificate representing any Warrant being exercised, then no
such delivery shall be made unless the person requesting the same has paid to
the Warrant Agent the amount of transfer taxes or charges incident thereto, if
any.

                      (d)   The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized 
as the Transfer Agent to requisition from time to time certificates representing
shares of Common Stock or other securities required upon exercise of the
Warrants, and the Company will comply with all such requisitions.

                      (e)   Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
constructed as conferring upon any Registered Holder the right to vote or to
consent or to receive notice as a stockholder in respect of any meetings of
stockholders for the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any
rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time
prior to the expiration of the Warrants and their exercise, the Company shall
adopt a resolution for the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company's business, then the Company shall give written notice of the adoption
of such resolution to all Registered Holders. No such liquidation, dissolution
or winding-up of the Company's affairs shall commence until at least thirty (30)
days after such written notice is given, at which time the right of the
Registered Holders to participate in the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up
of the Company's affairs 


                                       -7-
   8

shall terminate unless the Redeemable Warrants are exercised within such thirty
(30) day period.


         SECTION 6.   Exchange and Registration of Transfer.

                      (a)   Warrant Certificates may be exchanged for other 
Warrant Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants or may
be transferred in whole or in part. Warrant Certificates to be so exchanged
shall be surrendered to the Warrant Agent at its Corporate Office, and the
Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, issue and deliver
in exchange therefor the Warrant Certificate or Certificates which the
Registered Holder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive.

                      (b)   The Warrant Agent shall keep, at such office, books 
in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall
register Warrant Certificates and the transfer thereof. Upon due presentment for
registration of transfer of any Warrant Certificate at such office, the Company
shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall issue and deliver to the transferee or
transferees a new Warrant Certificate or Certificates representing an equal
aggregate number of Warrants.

                      (c)   With respect to any Warrant Certificates presented 
for registration of transfer, or for exchange or exercise, the subscription or
assignment form, as the case may be, on the reverse thereof shall be duly
endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of
subscription or assignment, in form satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant
Agent, duty executed by the Registered Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing.

                      (d)   No service charge shall be made for any exchange or 
registration of transfer of Warrant Certificates. However, the Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

                      (e)   All Warrant Certificates surrendered for exercise or
for exchange shall be promptly canceled by the Warrant Agent.

                      (f)   Prior to due presentment for registration or 
transfer thereof, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the
Registered Holder of any Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner thereof of
each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or
writing thereon made by anyone other than the Company or the Warrant Agent) for
all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.


                                      -8-

         SECTION 7.   Loss or Mutilation.

         Upon receipt by the Company and the Warrant Agent of evidence 
satisfactory to them of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of any Warrant Certificate and (in the case of loss, theft or
destruction) of indemnity satisfactory to them, and (in case of mutilation) upon
surrender and cancellation thereof, the Company shall execute and the Warrant
Agent shall countersign and deliver in lieu thereof a new Warrant Certificate,
representing an equal number of Warrants. Applicants for a substitute Warrant
Certificate shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay
such other reasonable charges as the Warrant Agent may prescribe.

         SECTION 8.   Adjustment of Purchase Price and Number of Shares of 
Common Stock Deliverable.

                      (a)   (i)  Except as hereinafter provided, in the event 
the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, sell
any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Purchase
Price or issue any shares of Common Stock as a stock dividend to the holders of
Common Stock, or subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a greater or lesser number of shares (any such sale, issuance, subdivision
or combination being herein called a "Change of Shares"), then, and thereafter
upon each further Change of Shares, the Purchase Price for the Warrants (whether
or not the same shall be issued and outstanding) in effect immediately prior to
such Change of Shares shall be changed to a price (including any applicable
fraction of a cent to the nearest cent) determined by dividing (A) the sum of
(x) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such Change of Shares, multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately
prior to such Change of Shares, and (y) the consideration, if any, received by
the Company upon such sale, issuance, subdivision or combination by (B) the
total number of sham of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such Change
of Shares; provided, however, that in no event shall the Purchase Price be
adjusted pursuant to this computation to an amount in excess of the Purchase
Price in effect immediately prior to such computation, except in the case of a
combination of outstanding shares of Common Stock.

         For the purposes of any adjustment to be made in accordance with this 
Section 8(a)(i) the following provisions shall be applicable:

                      (A)   In case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common 
Stock (or of other securities deemed hereunder to involve the issuance or sale
of shares of Common Stock) for a consideration part or all of which shall be
cash, the amount of the cash portion of the consideration therefor deemed to
have been received by the Company shall be (i) the subscription price, if shares
of Common Stock are offered by the Company for subscrip-


                                       -9-
   10

tion, or (ii) the public offering price (before deducting therefrom any
compensation paid or discount allowed in the sale, underwriting or purchase
thereof by underwriters or dealers or others performing similar services, or any
expenses incurred in connection therewith), if such securities are sold to
underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, or
(iii) the gross amount of cash actually received by the Company for such
securities, in any other case.

                      (B)   In case of the issuance or sale (otherwise than as a
dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company, and otherwise than
on the exercise of options, rights or warrants or the conversion or exchange of
convertible or exchangeable securities) of shares of Common Stock (or of other
securities deemed hereunder to involve the issuance or sale of shares of Common
Stock) for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash or as
part of a unit, the amount of the consideration therefor other than cash deemed
to have been received by the Company or the amount received per share as part of
a unit shall be the value of such consideration as determined in good faith by
the Board of Directors of the Company on the basis of a record of values of
similar property, services or securities.

                      (C)   Shares of Common Stock issuable by way of dividend 
or other distribution on any stock of the Company shall be deemed to have been
issued immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record
date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or
other distribution and shall be deemed to have been issued without
consideration.

                      (D)   The reclassification of securities of the Company 
other than shares of Common Stock into securities including shares of Common
Stock shall be deemed to involve the issuance of such shares of Common Stock for
a consideration other than cash immediately prior to the close of business on
the date fixed for the determination of security holders entitled to receive
such shares, and the value of the consideration allocable to such shares of
Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 8(a)(i)(B) hereof.

                      (E)   The number of shares of Common Stock at any one time
outstanding shall be deemed to include the aggregate maximum number of shares
issuable (subject to readjustment upon the actual issuance thereof) upon the
exercise of options, rights or warrants and upon the conversion or exchange of
convertible or exchangeable securities.

                            (ii)    Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price 
pursuant to this Section 8, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be the number derived by multiplying the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable immediately prior to such
adjustment by the 


                                      -10-
   11
Purchase Price in effect prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so 
obtained by the applicable adjusted Purchase Price.


                      (b)   In case the Company shall at any time after the date
hereof issue options, rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Common
Stock, or issue any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of
Common Stock, for a consideration per share (determined as provided in Section
8(a)(i) hereof and as provided below) less than the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to the issuance of such options, rights or warrants, or such
convertible or exchangeable securities, or without consideration (including the
issuance of any such securities by way of dividend or other distribution), the
Purchase Price for the Warrants (whether or not the same shall be issued and
outstanding) in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such options, rights
or warrants, or such convertible or exchangeable securities, as the case may be,
shall be reduced to a price determined by making the computation in accordance
with the provisions of Section 8(a)(i) hereof, provided that:

                            (i)   The aggregate maximum number of shares of 
Common Stock, as the case may be, issuable or that may become issuable under
such options, rights or warrants (assuming exercise in full even if not then
currently exercisable or currently exercisable in full) shall be deemed to be
issued and outstanding at the time such options, rights or warrants were issued,
for a consideration equal to the minimum purchase price per share provided for
in such options, rights or warrants at the time of issuance, plus the
consideration, if any, received by the Company for such options, rights or
warrants; provided, however, that upon the expiration or other termination of
such options, rights or warrants, if any thereof shall not have been exercised,
the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding
pursuant to this subsection (i) (and for the purposes of Section 8(a)(i)(E)
hereof) shall be reduced by the number of shares as to which options, warrants
and/or rights shall have expired, and such number of shares shall no longer be
deemed to be issued and outstanding, and the Purchase Price then in effect shall
forthwith be readjusted and thereafter be the price that it would have been had
adjustment been made on the basis of the issuance only of the shares actually
issued plus the shares remaining issuable upon the exercise of those options,
rights or warrants as to which the exercise rights shall not have expired or
terminated unexercised.

                            (ii)  The aggregate maximum number of shares of 
Common Stock issuable or that may become issuable upon conversion or exchange of
any convertible or exchangeable securities (assuming conversion or exchange in
full even if not then currently convertible or exchangeable in full) shall be
deemed to be issued and outstanding at the time of issuance of such securities,
for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the Company for such
securities, plus the minimum 


                                      -11-
   12

consideration, if any, receivable by the Company upon the conversion or exchange
thereof; provided, however, that upon the termination of the right to convert or
exchange such convertible or exchangeable securities (whether by reason of
redemption or otherwise), the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be
issued and outstanding pursuant to this subsection (ii) (and for the purposes of
Section 8(a)(i)(E) hereof) shall be reduced by the number of shares as to which
the conversion or exchange rights shall have expired or terminated unexercised,
and such number of shares shall no longer be deemed to be issued and
outstanding, and the Purchase Price then in effect shall forthwith be readjusted
and thereafter be the price that it would have been had adjustment been made on
the basis of the issuance only of the shares actually issued plus the shares
remaining issuable upon conversion or exchange of those convertible or
exchangeable securities as to which the conversion or exchange rights shall not
have expired or terminated unexercised.

                            (iii)  If any change shall occur in the price per 
share provided for in any of the options, rights or warrants referred to in
Section 8(b)(i) hereof, or in the price per share or ratio at which the
securities referred to in Section 8(b)(ii) hereof are convertible or
exchangeable, such options, rights or warrants or conversion or exchange rights,
as the case may be, to the extent not theretofore exercised, shall be deemed to
have expired or terminated on the date when such price change became effective
in respect of shares not theretofore issued pursuant to the exercise or
conversion or exchange thereof, and the Company shall be deemed to have issued
upon such date new options, rights or warrants or convertible or exchangeable
securities.

                      (c)   In case of any reclassification or change of 
outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (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 consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation
(other than a merger with a Subsidiary in which merger the Company is the
continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or
change of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or other capital stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants), or in case of any sale or conveyance to
another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, then, as a condition of such reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, the Company, or such
successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall make lawful and
adequate provision whereby the Registered Holder of each Warrant then
outstanding shall have the right thereafter to receive on exercise of such
Warrant the kind and amount of securities and property receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder
of the number of securities issuable upon exercise of such Warrant immediately
prior to such reclassification, change, 


                                      -12-
   13
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and shall forthwith file at the
Corporate Office of the Warrant Agent a statement signed by its Chairman of the
Board, President or a Vice President and by its Treasurer or an Assistant
Treasurer or its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary evidencing such provision.
Such provisions shall include provision for adjustments which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in Sections
8(a) and 8(b) hereof. The above provisions of this Section 8(c) shall similarly
apply to successive reclassifications and changes of shares of Common Stock and
to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

                      (d)   Irrespective of any adjustments or changes in the 
Purchase Price or the number of shares of Common Stock pur- chasable upon
exercise of the Warrants, the Warrant Certificates theretofore and thereafter
issued shall, unless the Company shall exercise its option to issue new Warrant
Certificates pursuant to Section 2(e) hereof, continue to express the Purchase
Price per share and the number of shares purchasable thereunder as the Purchase
Price per share and the number of shares purchasable thereunder were expressed
in the Warrant Certificates when the same were originally issued.

                      (e)   After each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant
to this Section 8, the Company will promptly prepare a certificate signed by the
Chairman of the Board, President, or a Vice President and by the Treasurer or an
Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company
setting forth: (i) the Purchase Price, as so adjusted, (ii) the number of shares
of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant, after such
adjustment, and (iii) a brief statement of the facts accounting for such
adjustment. The Company will promptly file such certificate with the Warrant
Agent and cause a brief summary thereof to be sent by ordinary first class mail
to each Registered Holder at his last address as it shall appear on the registry
books of the Warrant Agent. No failure to mail such notice nor any defect
therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity thereof except as to
the holder to whom the Company failed to mail such notice, or except as to the
holder whose notice was defective. The affidavit of an officer of the Warrant
Agent or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company that such notice
has been mailed shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the
facts stated therein.

                      (f)   No adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made as
a result of or in connection with (i) the issuance or sale of shares of Common
Stock pursuant to options, warrants, stock purchase agreements and convertible
or exchangeable securities outstanding or in effect on the date hereof, (ii) the
issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any "incentive
stock options" (as such term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended), or any non-qualified stock options to non-employee directors of the
Company pursuant 



                                      -13-
   14
to the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan, whether or not such options were
outstanding on the date hereof, or (C) the issuance or sale of shares of Common
Stock if the amount of said adjustment shall be less than ten cents ($.10);
provided, however, that in such case, any adjustment that would otherwise be
required then to be made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time
of and together with the next subsequent adjustment that shall amount, together
with any adjustment so carried forward, to at least ten cents ($. 10). In
addition, Registered Holders shall not be entitled to cash dividends paid by the
Company prior to the exercise of any Warrant or Warrants held by them.

                      (g)   In case of any consolidation of the Company with or 
merger of the Company into another corporation or other entity or in case of any
sale, lease, conveyance or other transfer to another corporation, person or
other entity of the property, assets or business of the Company as an entirety
or substantially as an entirety, the Company or such successor or purchasing
corporation, person or other entity, as the case may be, shall execute with the
Warrantholder, and the agreements governing such consolidation, merger, sale,
lease, conveyance or other transfer shall require such execution of, an
agreement that the Warrantholder shall have the right thereafter upon payment of
the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such event, upon exercise of
the Warrants, to receive the kind and amount of shares and other securities and
property which it would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the
happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other
transfer had the Warrants (and each underlying security) been exercised
immediately prior to such action. The Company shall promptly mail to each
Warrantholder by first class mail, postage prepaid, notice of the execution of
any such agreement. In the event of a merger described in Section 368(a)(2)(E)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, in which the Company is the surviving
corporation, the right to purchase shares of Warrant Stock under the Warrants
shall terminate on the date of such merger and thereupon the Warrants shall
become null and void, but only if the controlling corporation shall agree to
substitute for the Warrants its warrant which entitles the holder thereof to
purchase upon its exercise the kind and amount of shares and other securities
and property which it would have owned or been entitled to receive had the
Warrants been exercised immediately prior to such merger. Any such agreements
referred to in this Section 8(g) shall provide for adjustments, which shall be
as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in
Section 8 hereof, and shall provide for terms and provisions at least as
favorable to the Warrantholder as those contained in this Agreement. The
provisions of this Section 8(g) shall similarly apply to successive
consolidations, mergers, sales, leases, conveyances or other transfers.

                      (h)   Before taking any action which would cause an 
adjustment effectively reducing the portion of the Purchase Price 


                                      -14-
   15

allocable to each share of Warrant Stock below the then par value per share, if
any, of the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Company
shall 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 Stock upon exercise of the Warrants.

                      (i)   The Company may retain BDO Seidman LLP (or such 
other accounting firm qualified to practice in front of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") as is reasonably acceptable to the
Representative) to make any computation required under this Section 8, and a
certificate signed by such firm shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness
of any computation made under this Section 8.

         SECTION 9.   Redemption.

   
                      (a)      Commencing on the Initial Warrant Redemption 
Date, the Company may, on thirty (30) days prior written notice redeem all of
the Warrants at a redemption price of twenty five cents ($.25) per Warrant;
provided, however, that before any such call for redemption of Warrants can take
place, (i) the average closing bid price for the Common Stock in the
over-the-counter market as reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market or (ii) the
average closing sale price on the primary exchange on which the Common Stock is
traded, if the Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange, shall
have for any twenty (20) trading days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive
trading days ending on the fifth (5th) trading day prior to the date on which
the notice contemplated by Sections 9(b) and 9(c) hereof is given, equalled or
exceeded seven dollars ($7.00) per share (subject to adjustment in the event of
any stock splits or other similar events as provided in Section 8 hereof).
    

                      (b)   In case the Company shall exercise its right to 
redeem all of the Warrants, it shall give or cause to be given notice to the
Registered Holders of the Warrants, by mailing to such Registered Holders a
notice of redemption, first class, postage prepaid, at their last address as
shall appear on the records of the Warrant Agent. Any notice mailed in the
manner provided herein shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given
whether or not the Registered Holder receives such notice. Not less than five
(5) business days prior to the mailing to the Registered Holders of the Warrants
of the notice of redemption, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Underwriter or its successors or assigns a similar notice telephonically
and confirmed in writing, together with a list of the Registered Holders
(including their respective addresses and number of Warrants beneficially owned
by them) to whom such notice of redemption has been or will be given.

                      (c)   The notice of redemption shall specify (i) the 
redemption price, (ii) the date fixed for redemption, which shall in no event be
less than thirty (30) days after the 


                                      -15-
   16

date of mailing of such notice, (iii) the place where the Warrant Certificates
shall be delivered and the redemption price that shall be paid, (iv) that The
Boston Group, LLP or its successors or assigns is the Company's exclusive
warrant solicitation agent and shall receive the commission contemplated by
Section 4(b) hereof, and (v) that the right to exercise the Warrant shall
terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the business day immediately preceding
the date fixed for redemption. The date fixed for the redemption of the Warrants
shall be the "Redemption Date" for purposes of this Agreement. No failure to
mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect
the validity of the proceedings for such redemption except as to a holder (A) to
whom notice was not mailed or (B) whose notice was defective. An affidavit of
the Warrant Agent or the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company that
notice of redemption has been mailed shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima
facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

                      (d)    Any right to exercise a Warrant shall terminate at 
5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the business day immediately preceding the
Redemption Date. The redemption price payable to the Registered Holders shall be
mailed to such persons at their addresses of record.

                      (e)   The Company shall as soon as practicable after the 
Redemption Date, and in any event within fifteen (15) months thereafter, make
"generally available to its security holders" (within the meaning of Rule 158
under the Act) an earnings statement (which need not be audited) complying with
Section II(a) of the Act and covering a period of at least twelve (12)
consecutive months beginning after the Redemption Date.

         SECTION 10.  Registration Requirement.

                      (a)   The Company shall be obligated to the registered 
holders of the Warrants to continually maintain, at the Company's own expense,
the currency and effectiveness of a registration statement of the Company under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including the filing of any and all
applications and other notifications, filings and post-effective amendments and
supplements (collectively, the "Current registration statement") and any
necessary filings under applicable state blue sky (securities) laws, as may be
necessary, so as to permit the issuance of the Common Stock underlying the
Warrants to the holder of the Warrants until the earlier of the time that all
shares of Securities have been exercised pursuant to the Current Registration
Statement or the Expiration Date.

         SECTION 11.  Concerning the Warrant Agent.

                      (a)   The Warrant Agent acts hereunder as agent and in a 
ministerial capacity for the Company and The Boston Group, L.P. and its duties
shall be determined solely by the provisions hereof. The Warrant Agent shall
not, by issuing and delivering 


                                      -16-
   17

Warrant Certificates or by any other act hereunder, be deemed to make any
representations as to the validity or value or authorization of the Warrant
Certificates or the Warrants represented thereby or of any securities or other
property delivered upon exercise of any Warrant or whether any stock issued upon
exercise of any Warrant is fully paid and non-assessable.

                      (b)   The Warrant Agent shall not at any time be under any
duty or responsibility to any holder of Warrant Certificates to make or cause to
be made any adjustment of the Purchase Price provided in this Agreement, or to
determine whether any fact exists which may require any such adjustment, or with
respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment, when made, or with
respect to the method employed in making the same. It shall not (i) be liable
for any recital or statement of fact contained herein or for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it in reliance on any Warrant Certificate or other
document or instrument believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties, (ii) be responsible for
any failure on the part of the Company to comply with any of its covenants and
obligations contained in this Agreement or in any Warrant Certificate, or (iii)
be liable for any act or omission in connection with this Agreement except for
its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                      (c)   The Warrant Agent may at any time consult with 
counsel satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company or The Boston
Group, L.P.) and shall incur no liability or responsibility for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith in accordance with the opinion or
advice of such counsel.

                      (d)   Any notice, statement, instruction, request, 
direction, order or demand of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced by an
instrument signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President or any
Vice President (unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically
prescribed). The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it in accordance with such notice, statement,
instruction, request, direction, order or demand.

                      (e)   The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent 
reasonable compensation for its services hereunder and to reimburse it for its
reasonable expenses hereunder; the Company further agrees to indemnify the
Warrant Agent and hold it harmless against any and all losses, expenses and
liabilities, including judgments, costs and counsel fees, for anything done or
omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution of its duties and powers hereunder
except losses, expenses and liabilities arising as a result of the Warrant
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                      (f)   The Warrant Agent may resign its duties and be 
discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder 


                                      -17-
   18

(except liabilities arising as a result of the Warrant Agent's own gross
negligence or willful misconduct), after giving thirty (30) days' prior written
notice to the Company. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the date such
resignation is to become effective, the Warrant Agent shall cause a copy of such
notice of resignation to be mailed to the Registered Holder of each Warrant
Certificate at the Company's expense. Upon such resignation the Company shall
appoint in writing a new warrant agent. If the Company shall fail to make such
appointment within a period of thirty (30) days after it has been notified in
writing of such resignation by the resigning Warrant Agent, then the Registered
Holder of any Warrant Certificate may apply to any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a new warrant agent. Any new warrant agent,
whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be a stock transfer
company licensed by the Securities and Exchange Commission and reasonably
acceptable to The Boston Group, L.P. After acceptance in writing of such
appointment by the new warrant agent is received by the Company, such new
warrant agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and
responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as the warrant agent,
without any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed; but if for any reason it
shall be necessary or expedient to execute and deliver any further assurance,
conveyance, act or deed, the same shall be done at the expense of the Company
and shall be legally and validly executed and delivered by the resigning Warrant
Agent. Not later than the effective date of any such appointment, the Company
shall file notice thereof with the resigning Warrant Agent and shall forthwith
cause a copy of such notice to be mailed to the Registered Holder of each
Warrant Certificate.

                      (g)   Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent or any 
new warrant agent may be converted or merged, any corporation resulting from any
consolidation to which the Warrant Agent or any new warrant agent shall be a
party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of the
Warrant Agent or any new warrant agent shall be a successor warrant agent under
this Agreement without any further act, provided that such corporation is
eligible for appointment as successor to the Warrant Agent under the provisions
of the preceding paragraph. Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly
cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed to the Company and
to the Registered Holders of each Warrant Certificate.

                      (h)   The Warrant Agent, its subsidiaries and affiliates, 
and any of its or their officers or directors, may buy and hold or sell Warrants
or other securities of the Company and otherwise deal with the Company in the
same manner and to the same extent and with like effect as though it were not
Warrant Agent. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in
any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity.


                                      -18-
   19
                      (i)   The Warrant Agent shall retain for a period of two 
(2) years from the date of exercise any Warrant Certificate received by
it upon such exercise.

         SECTION 12.  Modification of Agreement.

         The Warrant Agent and the Company may by supplemental agreement make 
any changes or corrections in this Agreement (a) that they shall deem
appropriate to cure any ambiguity or to correct any defective or inconsistent
provision or manifest mistake or error herein contained, or (b) that they may
deem necessary or desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interests
of the holders of Warrant Certificates; provided, however, that, except as
provided in the next two sentences, this Agreement shall not otherwise be
modified, supplemented or altered in any respect except with the consent in
writing of the Registered Holders holding over fifty percent (50%) of the
Warrants then outstanding; provided, further, that no change in the number or
nature of the securities purchasable upon the exercise of any Warrant, and no
change that increases the Purchase Price of any Warrant, other than such changes
as are specifically set forth in this Agreement as originally executed, shall be
made without the consent in writing of each Registered Holders affected by such
change. In addition, this Agreement may not be modified, amended or supplemented
without the prior written consent of The Boston Group, L.P. or its successors or
assigns, other than to cure any ambiguity or to correct any defective or
inconsistent provision or manifest mistake or error herein contained or to make
any such change that the Warrant Agent and the Company deem necessary or
desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interests of The Boston
Group, L.P. or its successors or assigns. Notwithstanding any other provision
hereof, the Company upon notice to the Warrantholders, the Warrant Agent and The
Boston Group, L.P., may permanently or temporarily lower the exercise price of
the Warrants or extend the expiration date of the Warrants.

         SECTION 13.  Notices.

         All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder 
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been made when delivered or
mailed first-class postage prepaid or delivered to a telegraph office for
transmission, if to the Registered Holder of a Warrant Certificate, at the
address of such holder as shown on the registry books maintained by the Warrant
Agent; if to the Company at 431 Collage Boulevard, Oceanside, California 92051,
Attention: John Ellison, Jr., President.

        SECTION 14.  Governing Law.

        This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of California without giving effect to conflicts of laws.

         SECTION 15.  Binding Effect.

         This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the 
Company, the Warrant Agent and their respective successors and assigns and the
holders from time to time of Warrant Certificates or any of them. Except as
hereinafter stated, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed
to confer upon any other person any right, remedy or claim or to impose upon any
other person any duty, liability or obligation. The Representative is, and shall
at all times irrevocably be deemed to be, a third-party beneficiary of this
Agreement, with full power, authority and standing to enforce the rights granted
to it hereunder.

         SECTION 16.  Counterparts.

         This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, which taken 
together shall constitute a single document.

or registered assigns (the "Registered Holder") is the owner of the number of
Redeemable Warrants (the "Warrants") specified above. Each Warrant initially
entitles the Registered Holder to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Certificate and the Warrant Agreement (as hereinafter
defined), one fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock, no par value,

hereinafter defined) upon the presentation and surrender of this Warrant
Certificate with the Subscription Form on the reverse hereof duly executed, at
the corporate office of Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 2 Broadway,

Agent"), accompanied by payment of $6.50, subject to adjustment (the "Purchase
Price"), in lawful money of the United States of America in cash or by check
made payable to the Warrant Agent for the account of the Company.

                  This Warrant Certificate and each Warrant represented hereby
are issued pursuant to and are subject in all respects to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement (the "Warrant Agreement"), dated
September 16, 1996, by and between the Company, the Warrant Agent and The

subject to modification or adjustment.

                  Each Warrant represented hereby is exercisable at the option
of the Registered Holder, but no fractional interests will be issued. In the
case of the exercise of less than all the Warrants represented hereby, the

                  The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any securities
pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant unless a registration statement under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), with respect to such
securities is effective or an exemption thereunder is available. The Company has
covenanted and agreed that it will file a registration statement under the
Federal securities laws, use its best efforts to cause the same to become
effective, to keep such registration statement current, if required under the
Act, while any of the Warrants are outstanding, and deliver a prospectus which
complies with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act to the Registered Holder exercising
this Warrant. This Warrant shall not be exercisable by a Registered Holder in
any state where such exercise would be unlawful.

                  This Warrant Certificate is exchangeable, upon the surrender
hereof by the Registered Holder at the corporate office of the Warrant Agent,
for a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor representing
an equal aggregate number of Warrants, each of such new Warrant Certificates to
represent such number of Warrants as shall be designated by such Registered
Holder at the time of such surrender. Upon due presentment and payment of any
tax or other charge imposed in connection therewith or incident thereto, for
registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at such office, a new
Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates representing an equal aggregate
number of Warrants will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor,
subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement.

                  Under certain circumstances, The Boston Group, L.P. shall be
entitled to receive aggregate of four percent of the Purchase Price of the
Warrants represented hereby.

                  Prior to the exercise of any Warrant represented hereby, the
Registered Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the
Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive
dividends or other distributions, and shall not be entitled to receive any
notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided in the Warrant
Agreement.

                  Subject to the provisions of the Warrant Agreement, this
Warrant may be redeemed at the option of the Company, at a

                                       A-2
   24
   
redemption price of $.25 per Warrant, at any time commencing September 16, 1996,
provided that (i) the average closing bid price for the Company's Common Stock
in the over-the-counter market as reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market or (ii)
the average closing sale price on the primary exchange on which the Common Stock
is traded, if the Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange,
shall have for any twenty (20) trading days within a period of thirty (30)
consecutive trading days ending on the fifth trading day prior to the Notice of
Redemption, as defined below, equalled or exceeded $7.00 per share (subject to
adjustment in the event of any stock splits or other similar events). Notice of
redemption (the "Notice of Redemption") shall be given not later than the
thirtieth day before the date fixed for redemption, all as provided in the
Warrant Agreement. On and after the date fixed for redemption, the Registered
Holder shall have no rights with respect to this Warrant except to receive the
$.25 per Warrant upon surrender of this Certificate. 
    

                  Under certain circumstances, The Boston Group, L.P. shall be
entitled to receive aggregate of four percent of the Purchase Price of the
Warrants represented hereby.

                  Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer hereof,
the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered Holder as
the absolute owner hereof and of each Warrant represented hereby
(notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone
other than a duly authorized officer of the Company or the Warrant Agent) for
all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except as
provided in the Warrant Agreement.

                  This Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to
conflicts of laws.

                  This Warrant Certificate is not valid unless countersigned by
the Warrant Agent.
