BUSINESS -------- (a) General Development of Business ------------------------------- Except as expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein, the "Company" means Hasbro, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation organized on January 8, 1926, and its subsidiaries. The Company is a worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of toys, games, interactive software, puzzles and infant products. Included in its offerings are games, including traditional board and card, hand-held electronic and interactive CD-ROM, and puzzles, preschool, boys' action and girls' toys, dolls, plush products and infant products. The Company also licenses various trademarks, characters and other property rights for use in connection with the sale by others of noncompeting toys and non-toy products. Both internationally and in the U.S., its PLAYSKOOL, KENNER, TONKA, GALOOB, ODDZON, LARAMI, MILTON BRADLEY, PARKER BROTHERS, TIGER and HASBRO INTERACTIVE products provide children and families with what the Company believes to be the highest quality and most recognizable toys and games in the world. (b) Description of Business Products -------------------------------- The Company's products are categorized for marketing purposes as follows: (i) Toys and Games -------------- Boys' toys are offered in a wide range of products, many of which are tied to entertainment properties, including STAR WARS and BATMAN action figures and accessories. The Company also offers such classic properties as G.I. JOE, ACTION MAN, STARTING LINE-UP, TRANSFORMERS action figures, the TONKA line of trucks, vehicles including the WINNER'S CIRCLE line of die cast vehicle assortments and the NERF line of soft action play equipment. In 1999, the Company will be launching a comprehensive range of action figures and accessories using characters associated with Lucasfilms' STAR WARS: EPISODE 1: THE PHANTOM MENACE as well as the G.I. JOE CLASSIC COLLECTION, celebrating the 35th birthday of this great American hero, ANIMORPHS TRANSFORMERS, a line of NASCAR MICRO MACHINES and an extensive line of POKEMON toys and collectibles. Hasbro's girls toys include TV promoted large dolls, such as 1998's number one selling MCDONALDLAND HAPPY MEAL GIRL, the MY LITTLE PONY line of small dolls as well as the classic RAGGEDY ANN and RAGGEDY ANDY rag dolls. In 1999 the company will be introducing new large dolls, launching a line of products designed to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of the CLASSIC PEANUTS license, expanding the girls POKEMON product line, as well as expanding the POUND PUPPIES and SPICE GIRLS lines. The preschool business is a portfolio of three key brands: PLAYSKOOL, BARNEY and TELETUBBIES. The PLAYSKOOL line includes such well-known products as MR. POTATO HEAD, SIT 'N SPIN, GLOWORM, as well as a successful line of infant toys and toddler role-play products. The BARNEY brand includes a complete line of preschool toys such as PLAY ALONG BARNEY and the BARNEY SONG MAGIC BANJO, featuring that adorable purple dinosaur and his friends. The new PBS television show, TELETUBBIES, inspired a line of products featuring the lovable quartet of TINKY WINKY, DIPSY, LALA and PO. Included on a list of many new products being introduced during 1999 are the PLAYSKOOL KICK START GYM, SING 'N STRUM BARNEY and TELETUBBIES TUMMY SURPRISE plush dolls. Creative Play items for both girls and boys include such classic lines as PLAY-DOH, EASY-BAKE OVEN, both of which enjoyed record years in 1998, TINKERTOYS construction toys and LITE-BRITE and SPIROGRAPH design toys. During 1999, the Company will be offering new PLAY-DOH playsets, licensed refill bake sets for the EASY-BAKE OVEN, including KELLOGS POP TARTS SNACK STIX, which allow children to bake fruity flavored cookie sticks, as well as a STAR WARS PICTURE REFILL for LITE-BRITE. Internationally the Company will continue to expand and develop the creative play business with the GET SET and ART ATTACK product lines. The LARAMI line of toys features a comprehensive range of water products, including the SUPER SOAKER line, celebrating its tenth anniversary in 1999. The ODDZON range includes the KOOSH and VORTEX brands of sports and activity products, the RUBIK'S brand of logic puzzles plus the CAP CANDY brand of interactive candy and the SOUND BITES brand of electronic interactive candy - which allows one to hear sounds inside one's head while eating candy. New for 1999 in the ODDZON line will be the MARK MCGUIRE VORTEX power bat, LOOP DARTS, a `soft' dart-board game and several interactive candy additions, including new M&M MARS licensed candy dispensers and a SOUND BITES radio where consumers can listen to their favorite radio station in their head. The Company markets its games and puzzles under several well known brands. MILTON BRADLEY maintains a line of board, strategy and word games, skill and action games, hand-held electronic games and travel games with a diversified line of more than 200 games and puzzles for children and adults. The Company's staple items include BATTLESHIP, THE GAME OF LIFE, SCRABBLE, CHUTES AND LADDERS, CANDY LAND, TROUBLE, MOUSETRAP, OPERATION, HUNGRY HUNGRY HIPPOS, CONNECT FOUR, TWISTER and BIG BEN puzzles. The Company also provides games and puzzles for the entire family, including such games as YAHTZEE, PARCHEESI, AGGRAVATION, JENGA and SCATTERGORIES and PUZZ 3-D, a series of three dimensional jigsaw puzzles. Items added within the MILTON BRADLEY brand for 1999 include SONNY THE SEAL ring toss game, BALLZERKO, an electronic hand-held pinball maze game, and an anniversary edition of CANDY LAND. Under the PARKER BROTHERS brand, the Company markets a full line of games for families, children and adults. Its classic line of family board games includes MONOPOLY, CLUE, SORRY!, RISK, BOGGLE, OUIJA and TRIVIAL PURSUIT, some of which have been in the Parker Brothers' line for more than 50 years. The Company also markets traditional card games such as MILLE BORNES, ROOK and RACK-O, games for adults such as OUTBURST and CATCH PHRASE, a line of PLAYSKOOL games for children, as well as a line of puzzles. New under the PARKER BROTHERS brand in 1999 will be millennium editions of MONOPOLY and TRIVIAL PURSUIT, an updated version of A QUESTION OF SCRUPLES and BOP IT EXTREME, a new version of the popular electronic twist-pull game. The HASBRO INTERACTIVE line began with CD-ROM games based on the Company's traditional games and brands, including MONOPOLY, RISK, SORRY!, BATTLESHIP and, for younger children, a series of TONKA titles, including TONKA CONSTRUCTION and TONKA GARAGE and CD-ROM playsets which hook onto computer keyboards and combine traditional play with computer games. The line now includes action games from ATARI and simulation games from MICROPROSE and licensed properties such as FROGGER, WHEEL OF FORTUNE and JEOPARDY, many of which are also marketed for use on video console systems such as NINTENDO and the SONY PLAYSTATION. In 1999, among other more traditional family and children's CD-ROM games, HASBRO INTERACTIVE will be launching a line of EM@IL GAMES in which two players communicate their moves via e-mail and an EASY- BAKE OVEN and a CLUE JR. CD-ROM playset. TIGER products are among the most popular hand held electronic games and innovation keys its line for 1999. Fueled by the stunning success of FURBY in 1998, TIGER will be offering a complete line of extensions within this category. Included will be FURBY BUDDIES, which are low cost bean bag plush toys and the FURBY HAPPY MEAL toys, which will be available both as premiums at MCDONALDS and as products for sale at retail. TIGER has also freshened its lines with brands like SPORTS FEEL GAMES, WCW PRO POWER games, which feature sculpted action figures of real wrestlers with a dot matrix video game built in, and a line of NASCAR-themed racing electronic games. Other strong licenses which will continue to grow as part of TIGER'S 1999 offerings include a comprehensive line of STAR WARS: EPISODE 1 electronic games, WINNIE THE POOH electronic learning aids, POKEMON, TELETUBBIES, and, oriented towards adults, products based on television game shows including WHEEL OF FORTUNE, JEOPARDY, CONCENTRATION and THE PRICE IS RIGHT. Also being introduced in 1999 are E YO, TIGER'S introduction into the yo-yo category, and a table top tennis game that allows players to compete by playing table tennis with a special light as the "ball". In addition to the United States, the Company operates in more than 25 countries which sell a representative range of the global brands and products marketed in the United States together with some items which are sold only internationally. To further extend its range of products, the Company has Hong Kong units which market directly to retailers, both in the United States and internationally, a line of high quality, low priced toys, games and related products, primarily on a direct import basis. In addition, certain products and trademarks are licensed to other companies for certain countries and markets where the Company does not otherwise have a presence. The Company manufactures products in the United States, Mexico, Ireland and Spain and sources products, largely through a Hong Kong subsidiary working primarily through unrelated manufacturers in various Far East countries. Working Capital Requirements ---------------------------- Production has been financed historically by means of short-term borrowings which reach peak levels during September through November of each year when receivables also generally reach peak levels. The revenue pattern of the Company continues to shift with the second half of the year growing in significance to its overall business and, within that half, the fourth quarter becoming more prominent. The Company expects that this trend will continue. The toy business is also characterized by customer order patterns which vary from year to year largely because of differences each year in the degree of consumer acceptance of a product line, product availability, marketing strategies and inventory policies of retailers and differences in overall economic conditions. As a result, comparisons of unshipped orders on any date with those at the same date in a prior year are not necessarily indicative of sales for that entire given year. Also, quick response inventory management practices now being used results in fewer orders being placed in advance of shipment and more orders, when placed, for immediate delivery. The Company's unshipped orders at February 28, 1999 and March 1, 1998 were approximately $570,000,000 and $155,000,000, respectively. Also, it is a general industry practice that orders are subject to amendment or cancellation by customers prior to shipment. The backlog at any date in a given year can be affected by programs the Company may employ to induce its customers to place orders and accept shipments early in the year. This method is a general industry practice. The programs the Company is employing to promote sales in 1999 are not substantially different from those employed in 1998. As part of the traditional marketing strategies of the toy industry, many sales made early in the year are not due for payment until the fourth quarter or early in the first quarter of the subsequent year, thus making it necessary for the Company to borrow significant amounts pending these collections. During the year, the Company relies on internally generated funds and short-term borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, to finance its working capital needs. Currently, the Company has available to it unsecured lines of credit, which it believes are adequate, of approximately $1,000,000,000 including a $350,000,000 long-term and a $150,000,000 short- term revolving credit agreement with a group of banks which is also used as a back-up to commercial paper issued by the Company. Royalties, Research and Development ----------------------------------- The Company's business is based to a substantial extent on the continuing development of new products and the redesigning of existing items for continuing market acceptance. In 1998, 1997 and 1996, approximately $184,962,000, $154,710,000 and $152,487,000, respectively, were incurred on activities relating to the development, design and engineering of new products and their packaging (including items brought to the Company by independent designers) and to the improvement or modification of ongoing products. Much of this work is performed by the Company's staff of designers, artists, model makers and engineers. In addition to its own staff, the Company deals with a number of independent toy designers for whose designs and ideas the Company competes with other toy manufacturers. Rights to such designs and ideas, when acquired by the Company, are usually exclusive under agreements requiring the Company to pay the designer a royalty on the Company's net sales of the item. These designer royalty agreements in some cases provide for advance royalties and minimum guarantees. The Company also produces a number of toys under trademarks and copyrights utilizing the names or likenesses of familiar movie, television and comic strip characters, for whose rights the Company competes with other toy manufacturers. Licensing fees are generally paid as a royalty on the Company's net sales of the item. Licenses for the use of characters are generally exclusive for specific products or product lines in specified territories. In many instances, advance royalties and minimum guarantees are required by character license agreements. Under terms of currently existing agreements, in certain circumstances the Company may be required to pay an aggregate of up to $660,000,000 in guaranteed or minimum royalties between 1998 and 2007. Of this amount, in excess of $110,000,000 has been paid and is included in the $145,066,000 of prepaid royalties which are a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheet. Of the remaining amount, Hasbro may be required to pay approximately $250,000,000, $120,000,000 and $120,000,000 in 1999, 2002 and 2005, respectively. Such payments are related to royalties which are expected to be incurred on anticipated revenues in the years 1999 through 2007. Marketing and Sales ------------------- The Company's products are sold nationally and internationally to a broad spectrum of customers including wholesalers, distributors, chain stores, discount stores, mail order houses, catalog stores, department stores and other retailers, large and small. The Company and its subsidiaries employ their own sales forces which account for nearly all of the sales of their products. Remaining sales are generated by independent distributors who sell the Company's products principally in areas of the world where the Company does not otherwise maintain a presence. The Company maintains showrooms in New York and selected other major cities world-wide as well as at most of its subsidiary locations. Although the Company has more than 2,000 customers in the United States and Canada, most of which are wholesalers, distributors or large chain stores, there has been significant consolidation at the retail level over the last several years. In other countries, the Company has in excess of 20,000 customers, many of which are individual retail stores. During 1998, sales to the Company's two largest customers, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and Toys `R Us, Inc., represented 18% and 17%, respectively, of consolidated net revenues. The Company advertises many of its toy and game products extensively on television. The Company generally advertises selected items in its product groups in a manner designed to promote the sale of other specific items in those product groups. Each year, the Company introduces its new products in New York City at the time of the American International Toy Fair in February. It also introduces some of its products to major customers during the prior year. In 1998, the Company spent approximately $440,692,000 in advertising, promotion and marketing programs compared to $411,574,000 in 1997 and $418,003,000 in 1996. Manufacturing and Importing --------------------------- As a result of the global integration and profit enhancement program announced in December 1997, the Company manufactures its products in four principal facilities, East Longmeadow, Massachusetts, Waterford, Ireland, Tijuana, Mexico and Valencia, Spain. Most of its products are manufactured from basic raw materials such as plastic and cardboard, although certain products also make use of electronics components. All of these materials are readily available but may be subject to significant fluctuations in price. The Company's manufacturing process includes injection molding, blow molding, metal stamping, spray painting, printing, box making and assembly. The Company purchases certain components and accessories used in its toys and games and some finished items from United States manufacturers as well as from manufacturers in the Far East, which is the largest manufacturing center of toys in the world, and other countries. The 1996 implementation of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade reduced or eliminated customs duties on many products imported by the Company. The Company believes that the manufacturing capacity of its facilities and the supply of components, accessories and completed products which it purchases from unaffiliated manufacturers is adequate to meet the foreseeable demand for the products which it markets. The Company's reliance on external sources of manufacturing can be shifted, over a period of time, to alternative sources of supply for products it sells, should such changes be necessary. However, if the Company is prevented from obtaining products from a substantial number of its current Far East suppliers due to political, labor or other factors beyond its control, the Company's operations would be disrupted while alternative sources of product were secured. The imposition of trade sanctions by the United States or the European Union against a class of products imported by the Company from, or the loss of "most favored nation" trading status by, the People's Republic of China could significantly increase the cost of the Company's products imported into the United States or Europe from China. The Company makes its own tools and fixtures but purchases dies and molds principally from independent United States and international sources. Several of the Company's North American production departments operate on a two-shift basis and its molding departments operate on a continuous basis through most of the year. Competition ----------- The Company's business is highly competitive and it competes with several large and many small United States and international manufacturers. The Company is a worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of toys and games. Employees --------- The Company employs approximately 10,000 persons worldwide, approximately 6,000 of whom are located in the United States. Trademarks, Copyrights and Patents ---------------------------------- The Company's products are protected, for the most part and in as many countries as practical, by registered trademarks, copyrights and patents to the extent that such protection is available and meaningful. The loss of such rights concerning any particular product would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, although the loss of such protection for a number of significant items might have such an effect. Government Regulation --------------------- The Company's toy products sold in the United States are subject to the provisions of the Consumer Product Safety Act (the "CPSA"), The Federal Hazardous Substances Act (the "FHSA") and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The CPSA empowers the Consumer Product Safety Commission (the "CPSC") to take action against hazards presented by consumer products, including the formulation and implementation of regulations and uniform safety standards. The CPSC has the authority to seek to declare a product "a banned hazardous substance" under the CPSA and to ban it from commerce. The CPSC can file an action to seize and condemn an "imminently hazardous consumer product" under the CPSA and may also order equitable remedies such as recall, replacement, repair or refund for the product. The FHSA provides for the repurchase by the manufacturer of articles which are banned. Similar laws exist in some states and cities within the United States and in Canada, Australia and Europe. The Company maintains laboratories which have testing and other procedures intended to maintain compliance with the CPSA and FHSA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that all of the Company's products are or will be hazard free. Any material product recall could have an effect on the Company, depending on the product, and could affect sales of other products. During 1998, the CPSC released the results of a study of a chemical, diisononyl phthalate ("DINP") used to soften some plastic toys and children's products. The study concluded that few if any children are at risk from DINP because the amount that they ingest does not even come close to a harmful level. Therefore, the CPSC staff did not recommend a ban on these products. However, the CPSC indicated that the study identified several areas of uncertainty where additional scientific research is needed. As a precaution while more scientific work is done, the CPSC staff requested the industry to remove DINP from soft rattles and teethers. Approximately 90% of manufacturers, including the Company, indicated to the CPSC that they have or will remove DINP from the soft rattles and teethers by early 1999. Canada and certain European countries have requested or required similar removal of DINP from products meant to be mouthed by children. The Company does not believe such removal will materially affect the Company. The Children's Television Act of 1990 and the rules promulgated thereunder by the United States Federal Communications Commission as well as the laws of certain countries place certain limitations on television commercials during children's programming. The Company maintains programs to comply with various United States federal, state, local and international requirements relating to the environment, plant safety and other matters. Toys "R" Us Litigation ---------------------- On September 25, 1997, an administrative law judge ("ALJ") of the Federal Trade Commission (the "Commission") issued an Initial Decision against Toys "R" Us, finding that Toys "R" Us had engaged in unfair business practices in violation of Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act. In particular, the ALJ found that Toys "R" Us entered into vertical agreements with, and facilitated horizontal agreements among, various toy manufacturers, including the Company, to restrict the supply of certain toys to warehouse club retailers. Although the Company voluntarily produced documents and witnesses in the action, the Company was not named a defendant by the Commission in the action. The ALJ's decision was affirmed by the Commission on October 14, 1998. In the wake of the ALJ's decision, numerous antitrust actions were filed naming Toys "R" Us, the Company, and certain other toy manufacturers as defendants. All of these actions generally allege that Toys "R" Us orchestrated an illegal conspiracy with various toy manufacturers to improperly cut-off supplies of popular toys to the warehouse clubs and other low margin retailers that compete with Toys "R" Us. The Company was named as a defendant in twenty-seven private antitrust class actions in federal courts in California, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Vermont, all of which purport to represent nationwide classes of customers. These actions allege, among other things, violations of the Sherman and Clayton Acts. In addition, on October 2, 1997, the Attorney General of the State of New York ("NYAG") filed an action against Toys "R" Us, the Company, and several other toy manufacturers alleging violations of federal and state antitrust law, on behalf of all persons in the State of New York who purchased toy products from retailers from 1989 to the present. The NYAG complaint was amended to add as plaintiffs attorneys general from an additional forty-three states, the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. On February 11, 1998, the Judicial Panel on Multi-District Litigation consolidated and transferred, for all pretrial proceedings, the NYAG action and all of the pending private actions in the federal courts. The consolidated cases are titled In Re Toys "R" Us Antitrust Litigation, MDL- 1211 and are pending in the Federal District Court in the Eastern District of New York. In addition, the Company was named as a defendant, along with Toys "R" Us and certain other toy manufacturers, in an action titled Struthers v. Toys "R" Us et al., No. H198813-6, filed in the Superior Court for the State of California, Alameda County, alleging violations of state antitrust laws. On February 9, 1998, the Superior Court ordered the Struthers case to be coordinated with three pending state court actions previously filed against Toys "R" Us in California. All of the California litigations were stayed to encourage the parties to pursue settlement discussions and negotiations in good faith. These discussions were coordinated with a mediation ordered in a case titled Wilson v. Toys "R" Us, Case No. CV96-574, pending in Tuscaloosa County Circuit Court in Alabama. The Company is not a party to the Alabama case. All of the foregoing complaints seek injunctive relief, unspecified treble damages, expenses or costs and attorneys fees. The Company has not responded to the complaints in any of these actions. On December 9, 1998, Hasbro entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release with the State Attorneys General and the Private Plaintiffs with respect to all of the pending state and federal actions. The parties are currently in the process of presenting the Settlement to the District Court for preliminary approval. Following this process, the Company anticipates that notice of the Settlement will be sent to potential class members, and thereafter the Settlement will be presented to the Court for final approval. No dates for these hearings have been scheduled. Forward-Looking Information --------------------------- From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products, research and development activities and similar matters. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are known by, or self- evident to, the investing public. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause its actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in its forward- looking statements. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of Hasbro's business include the following: 1) The Company's dependence on its timely development and introduction of new products and the acceptance, in a competitive product environment, by both the customer and consumer, of new and continuing products; 2) The impact of competition on revenue, margins and other aspects of the Company's business; 3) Economic conditions and currency fluctuations in the various markets in which the Company operates throughout the world, including the effect of currency fluctuations on reportable income; 4) The inventory policies of retailers, including the continuing trend of increased concentration of Hasbro's revenues in the second half and fourth quarter of the year, together with the increased reliance by retailers on quick response inventory management practices, which increases the risk of the Company's underproduction of popular items, overproduction of less popular items and failure to achieve tight and compressed shipping schedules; 5) The impact of Year 2000 issues, including the Company's incurring higher than expected costs to achieve, or not achieving, Year 2000 readiness with respect to its systems, or its customers, vendors or service providers failing to achieve such readiness; unanticipated technical malfunctions or difficulties which would arise during the validation process or otherwise; the inherent risk that assurances, warranties, and specifications provided by third parties with respect to the Company's systems, or such third party's Year 2000 readiness, may prove to be inaccurate, despite the Company's review process; the continued availability of qualified persons to carry out the remaining anticipated phases; the risk that governments may not be Year 2000 ready, which could affect the commercial sector in trade, finance and other areas, notwithstanding private sector Year 2000 readiness; whether, despite a comprehensive review, the Company has successfully identified all Year 2000 issues and risks; and the risk that proposed actions and contingency plans of the Company and third parties with respect to Year 2000 issues may conflict or themselves give rise to additional issues; 6) The risk that anticipated benefits of acquisitions and the Company's global integration and profit enhancement program may not occur or be delayed or reduced in their realization; and 7) Other risks and uncertainties as are or may be detailed from time to time in Hasbro's public announcements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sole activity of manufacturing a Licensed Product outside of the applicable Territory hereunder may take place in a country outside of the Territory if the terms and conditions of Paragraph 15 hereinbelow have been first satisfied and so long as no Licensed Product manufactured in such country is distributed by Licensee (or with Licensee's express or implied authority) from such country for the "sale" thereof (as defined in Subparagraph 8.2 hereinbelow) to a Customer outside of the Territory.

Licensee shall not have the right: (i) to distribute or sell (or authorize any entity to distribute or sell) any Licensed Product other than to a "bona fide and recognized" (as such term is commonly understood in the U.S. toy industry) third party wholesale entity for distribution directly to a Retail Entity, or directly to a bona fide and recognized third party Retail Entity (whether such third party Retail Entity is a third party "traditional retail store" (as that term is commonly understood in the U.S. toy industry), a third party direct-to-consumer paper-printed catalog company or direct mail company, a third party Internet Retail Entity or, subject to Subparagraph 3.1(c) hereinbelow, a third party Electronic Retailer). In particular, but not by way of limitation, Licensee shall not distribute any Licensed Product through any channel, method or outlet of distribution denoted as an Excluded Distribution Channel on Schedule IV attached hereto; (ii) to distribute or sell (or authorize any entity to distribute or sell) any Licensed Product to any party if Licensee knows, or in the exercise of its reasonable good faith business judgment should know, that such distribution or sale will result in the distribution for sale or resale of any Licensed Product outside of the Territory; (iii) to conduct or authorize any entity to conduct Consumer Marketing disseminated outside of the Territory for any Licensed Product; or (iv) except with Licensor's prior written approval, to distribute or sell any Licensed Product to any Closeout Store in any country prior to the date eighteen (18) months after the initial "sale" (as such term is defined in Subparagraph 8.2 hereinbelow) of such Licensed Product to a Customer in such country. (b) Licensor Channels. Notwithstanding the rights licensed to Licensee hereunder, Licensor shall also have the right to distribute and/or sell any Licensed Product purchased from Licensee, any Licensee Affiliate or Sublicensee through any Licensor Channel and, in this connection, Licensor shall purchase or require to be purchased from Licensee, a Licensee Affiliate or a Sublicensee any Licensed Product for which Licensee has exclusive rights hereunder and which is to be sold through a Licensor Channel, provided, Licensee shall manufacture and supply to Licensor or to Licensor's designee those numbers of such Licensed Product as Licensor shall request for the applicable Licensor Channel, and Licensee shall sell such Licensed Product to Licensor or to Licensor's designee at the lowest price and on the most favorable terms given by Licensee, a Licensee Affiliate or a 4 Sublicensee to a Customer for the same or comparable quantities of such Licensed Product being sold and delivered on comparable terms and conditions, whether or not such Licensed Product is Account Specific Merchandise, F.O.B. Product or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Account Specific Merchandise, the foregoing obligation shall be subject to Licensee having received the consent of the person for whom such Account Specific Merchandise was created. (c) Internet/Electronic Retailers. Licensee shall not have the right to manufacture, distribute and/or sell (or authorize any entity to manufacture, distribute or sell) any Licensed Product: (i) through the Internet (except for the transmission, reception, recordation or display of information relating to a purchase order placed by a person to whom Licensee is permitted to sell under Subparagraph 3.1(a)(i) and except if such distribution or sale is through a bona fide and recognized third party Internet Retail Entity pursuant to Subparagraph 3.1[a][i] hereinabove, or through a Licensor Channel as permitted pursuant to Subparagraph 3.1[b] hereinabove) without Licensor's prior written approval in each instance; or (ii) through any Electronic Retailer except that, at Licensor's request, Licensee is hereby licensed to supply to Licensor or to Licensor's designee such specific Licensed Products to such specific Electronic Retailer(s) as Licensor may approve in advance in writing. 3.2. Exclusivity. The rights licensed to Licensee hereunder shall be exclusive for Standard Toys (except for the Standard Toys defined as Plush, Craft Kits and Novelty Candy, for which Licensee's rights hereunder shall be non-exclusive), for G/P and for E/H, except as otherwise set forth in Schedule II. 3.3. Sublicenses. (a) Approval of Sublicensee Agreement. Licensee shall have no right to sublicense to any entity (including to a distributor or to a Licensee Affiliate that is not a Permitted Licensee Affiliate) any right licensed to it hereunder (other than the right to manufacture any Licensed Product, which shall be subject to Paragraph 15 hereinbelow) or transfer or dispose of any Licensed Property to any distributor, including to a Licensee Affiliate that is not a Permitted Licensee Affiliate or to any other third party unless and until: (i) Licensor has provided Licensee with its prior written approval of the proposed sublicensee and the terms and conditions of any and all agreements between Licensee and such proposed sublicensee (and any modifications thereof, whether oral or written) for such sublicense (collectively the "Sublicense Agreement"); (ii) such sublicensee shall have executed an Approval of Sublicensee Agreement with Licensor in substantially the form of Licensor's then-current form for such agreement, as such form may be revised by Licensor in its 5 reasonable discretion from time to time (any such sublicensee and all affiliated and related entities of such Sublicensee approved by Licensor for which an Approval of Sublicensee Agreement is fully executed, a "Sublicensee" herein); (iii) such Sublicensee shall agree in the Sublicense Agreement to be fully bound at all times by the terms and conditions of the following paragraphs and subparagraphs of this Agreement adjusted as appropriate: 3.1, 3.4, 3.5, 3.7, 3.8, 11.1, 11.2, 12, 13.2-13.8, 14, 16, 17, 19.1(c), 19.1(d) and 19.1(e); (iv) such Sublicensee shall execute a Trademark License Agreement with Licensor; and (v) such Sublicensee shall further agree in such Approval of Sublicensee Agreement that Licensor shall be a third party beneficiary thereof. A copy of Licensor's current form for Approval of Sublicensee Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B. The sublicense by Licensee of any rights licensed to Licensee hereunder shall in no manner whatsoever affect or otherwise diminish or relieve any of Licensee's obligations hereunder, and Licensee shall execute, and shall ensure that each prospective Sublicensee executes, the Approval of Sublicensee Agreement. The failure by a Sublicensee to adhere to the terms of the Approval of Sublicensee Agreement or the Sublicensee Agreement shall not be imputed to Licensee unless such Sublicensee is a controlled affiliate of Licensee or Licensee fails to comply with its obligations under Subparagraph 3.3(b) hereinbelow. (b) Enforcement of Sublicense Agreement. Licensee agrees to include and strictly enforce in each Sublicense Agreement all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement relevant to the sublicense to Sublicensee of any right licensed to Licensee hereunder. Licensee shall advise Licensor of any material breach thereof by a Sublicensee and of any corrective action taken by Licensee or by such Sublicensee as well as the results thereof. Licensee shall use its best efforts to cause such Sublicensee to cure such breach and, at the written request of Licensor following such breach, Licensee shall terminate such Sublicense Agreement, subject to the same cure provisions as are applicable to Licensee in Subparagraph 22.2(a) hereinbelow. Licensee hereby appoints Licensor its attorney-in-fact solely for the purpose of sending a notice of termination, subject to the immediately preceding sentence, in order to terminate such Sublicense Agreement or any specific rights thereunder, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest; provided, however, that Licensor will indemnify and hold harmless Licensee for damages resulting from knowingly making a material misstatement in connection with the exercise of such power of attorney. 3.4. (a) No Rights to Products Other Than Licensed Products. Other than the products, goods and articles defined in Schedule II as "Licensed Products," all products, goods, items, devices and articles of any kind based on or incorporating the Licensed Property are expressly excluded from the rights licensed to Licensee pursuant to this Agreement and are expressly reserved to Licensor. For the avoidance of doubt, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Micro Toys and "Model Kits" (as hereinafter defined) do not constitute Licensed Products and are expressly excluded from this Agreement. The term "Model Kits," as used in this Agreement, means [**]. 6 (b) No Joint or Cross Distributing, Promoting or Selling.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or otherwise, but without limitation of Licensor's other rights and remedies: (a) Licensee acknowledges that Licensor may have heretofore executed agreements with third parties which may encompass rights with respect to some or all of the Licensed Products and/or which may grant to such third parties the right to dispose of, distribute and sell Licensed Products during their respective sell-off periods, which sell-off periods may occur during the Term, and that such sell-off rights shall not violate the terms of this Agreement; in this connection, Licensor agrees to disclose the identity of such third parties, the Licensed Products covered and the dates of their respective sell-off periods; provided, however, that the inadvertent failure by Licensor to disclose such information shall not constitute a breach hereunder, and such disclosure shall be subject to any applicable confidentiality restrictions; and (b) Licensor shall have the unrestricted right, prior to the expiration or termination of the Term to provide for the disposition of any or all of the rights licensed to Licensee hereunder, including, without limitation, entering into agreements with any third party(ies) which provide for the right for such third party(ies) to design, manufacture and/or distribute Licensed Products anywhere in the Territory, provided, that such agreement(s) shall not authorize the shipment of Licensed Products to customers on a date that would allow such Licensed Products to be sold to end users at retail prior to the expiration or termination of the Term. 3.7.

Licensor shall be entitled to recover from Licensee, in addition to any other remedies in the event of material default, reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses, including collection agency fees incurred by Licensor in the enforcement of any provision hereof.

Any attempted assignment, sublicense, transfer, encumbrance or other disposal without such approval will be null and void and constitute a material default and material breach of this Agreement. 25.2. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the federal laws of the United States and the laws of the State of California applicable to agreements entered into, and to be performed entirely, within California between California residents (and excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods) without regard to choice of law provisions and regardless of the place or places of its actual execution or performance. Any suit, action or proceeding between or among any of the parties hereto arising out of or related to this Agreement will be brought solely in the federal or state courts in the Northern District of California, and Licensee hereby submits to the personal jurisdiction thereof and agrees to such courts as the appropriate venue. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee agrees that, for purposes of collecting monies due pursuant to this Agreement, Licensee, at Licensor's election, may be subject to whatever local laws and courts have jurisdiction in any country of the Territory over Licensee. Process in any action or proceeding referenced to in this Subparagraph 25.2 may be served on Licensee at the address for notices set forth in Subparagraph 25.5 hereinbelow. 25.3. Attorneys' Fees.

Equitable Relief. Licensee recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by Licensee of any covenants, agreements or undertakings made or assumed by it will cause Licensor irreparable damage, which cannot be readily remedied in damages in an action at law, and may, in addition thereto, constitute an infringement of Licensor's intellectual property and other rights in the Licensed Property, thereby entitling Licensor to equitable remedies (including, without limitation, injunctive relief), costs (including, without limitation, whether or not in connection with litigation) and reasonable attorney's fees. For purposes of this Subparagraph 25.4, Licensee acknowledges that (by way of example and not limitation) infringement of Licensor's intellectual property rights include any use of the Licensed Property by Licensee other than those licensed under this Agreement, failure to obtain approvals required under this Agreement, use or release of any Licensed Product or 40 Confidential Information in violation of this Agreement, and failure to secure permissions and transfers of rights from third parties as required pursuant to this Agreement. 25.5.

Approvals. Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, any and all Licensor approvals pursuant to this Agreement may be given or withheld in Licensor's reasonable discretion.

A complete copy of this document has been supplied to the Securities and Exchange Commission under separate cover.] This AGREEMENT OF STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIP (the "agreement") is made and entered into as of October 14, 1997, between Lucasfilm Ltd., a California corporation ("Lucasfilm"), on the one hand, located at P. O. Box 2009, San Rafael, CA 94912 and Hasbro, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation, located at 1027 Newport Avenue, Pawtucket, RI 02862 ("Hasbro"), on the other hand. WHEREAS: A. Lucasfilm is a California corporation engaged in the production of theatrical motion pictures and the licensing of intellectual property rights related to such theatrical motion pictures; B. Lucasfilm owns or controls rights in respect of the Property (as hereinafter defined); C. Hasbro is engaged in the manufacture, distribution and sale of consumer products in the form of toys including, without limitation, toys based on entertainment intellectual properties licensed from third parties; D. Lucasfilm and Hasbro have a longstanding relationship with respect to the licensing of such rights; and E. Lucasfilm and Hasbro wish to establish a strategic relationship whereby Hasbro would acquire the opportunity to license certain rights in and to theatrical motion pictures produced by Lucasfilm for the manufacture, distribution and sale of Products in the Territory, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. GRANT OF RIGHTS. Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, and in consideration for all of Hasbro's obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, Hasbro's agreement to grant to Lucasfilm a warrant as provided in Paragraph 4 hereinbelow, Lucasfilm grants to Hasbro an exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable right of first negotiation (the "First Negotiation Right") and, as more specifically provided in Subparagraph 3.3 hereinbelow, right of first refusal (the "First Refusal Right") during the Term and throughout the Territory to license the Property as provided in Paragraph 3 hereinbelow: 1.1. to develop, design, manufacture, distribute, advertise, publicize, market and sell the Products, for sale to retail Customers through all channels of wholesale and retail distribution permitted hereunder; and 1.2. for reproduction on containers, packaging, display and promotional material and in Advertising and Advertising Materials for the Products. The First Negotiation Right and First Refusal Right shall be exercised by Hasbro in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in this agreement. 1 Agreement Between Lucasfilm Ltd. and Hasbro, Inc. dated October 14, 1997 2. TERM AND TERRITORY. 2.1. Term. The term of Hasbro's rights pursuant to this agreement with respect to the First Negotiation Right and First Refusal Right (the "Term") shall consist of the time period commencing as of the date hereof and ending on December 31, 2007. 2.2. Territory. The territory of Hasbro's rights hereunder (the "Territory") consists of the world excluding China. 3. EXERCISE OF FIRST NEGOTIATION RIGHT AND FIRST REFUSAL RIGHT. The First Negotiation Right and in certain situations First Refusal Right as to each theatrical motion picture which is an element of the Property shall be exercisable by Hasbro in accordance with the following procedure: 3.1. If Lucasfilm desires to license the rights referenced in Subparagraphs 1.1 and 1.2 hereinabove with respect to any theatrical motion picture which is an element of the Property, then Lucasfilm shall notify Hasbro in writing. Lucasfilm shall concurrently make available to Hasbro at Lucasfilm's premises all materials then extant regarding such motion picture, including script, artwork, casting, to the extent available. 3.2. Hasbro shall thereafter have thirty (30) days from the date of such notice (the "First Negotiation Period") to negotiate and enter into a written agreement (the "Agreement"), which agreement shall incorporate no less than all of the terms and conditions of that certain license agreement between Hasbro and Lucas Licensing Ltd. dated as of October 14, 1997 (the "Toy Agreement") with the exception of Royalties (Paragraph 8), Advance (Paragraph 7), Term (Paragraph 2), [**] (Subparagraph 4.3), Minimum Sales Levels (Subparagraph 4.2), and the definition of Licensed Property (Subparagraph 24.68) (collectively the "Excluded Terms"); provided, however, that neither party shall be obligated to conclude an Agreement with respect to a particular theatrical motion picture which is an element of the Property. During the First Negotiation Period, the parties shall negotiate with respect to the Excluded Terms, provided that the Royalty Percentage shall be no less than ten percent (10%) of Net Sales and no more than the rates specified in Paragraph 8 of the Toy Agreement. 3.3. If the parties fail to enter into an Agreement with respect to such theatrical motion picture during the First Negotiation Period, then Lucasfilm shall be free to negotiate with and conclude an agreement with any third party with respect to the rights that are incorporated in the First Negotiation Right provided, that with respect to those theatrical motion pictures set forth in Subparagraphs 5.2(a)(i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) ("First Refusal Pictures"), Lucasfilm shall not conclude an agreement with a third party with respect to such rights on terms that are less favorable to Lucasfilm than those terms last offered by Hasbro without giving notice of such third party offer to Hasbro and providing Hasbro with a ten (10) day period (the "First Refusal Period") within which to enter into an Agreement with Lucasfilm on the same terms and conditions contained in the third party offer (the "First Refusal Right"). If Hasbro fails to execute such Agreement within such 2 Agreement Between Lucasfilm Ltd. and Hasbro, Inc. dated October 14, 1997 First Refusal Period with respect to a First Refusal Picture or within the First Negotiation Period with respect to all other theatrical motion pictures included within the Property, then Lucasfilm shall be free to enter into an agreement with such third party with respect to a First Refusal Picture or with any third party with respect to all other theatrical motion pictures subject to the First Negotiation Right and such theatrical motion picture shall be deleted from the definition of the Property hereunder. 3.4. Lucasfilm makes no representation or warranty that any rights which otherwise would be subject to the First Negotiation Right and First Refusal Right as to any theatrical motion picture produced by Lucasfilm following the date hereof and during the Term will be owned or controlled by Lucasfilm or that Lucasfilm will retain the right or ability to include such theatrical motion picture as an element of the Property, notwithstanding the fact that at any point in time, Lucasfilm may have owned or controlled such rights. In this connection, Hasbro acknowledges that Lucasfilm may enter into an arrangement with respect to a particular theatrical motion picture (other than a grant of a license for the Products alone for such theatrical motion picture) in which the grant of such rights to a third party may be necessary in Lucasfilm's sole judgment in order to finance, produce, distribute or exploit such theatrical motion picture or any underlying rights relating to such theatrical motion picture. 4. WARRANT. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Hasbro shall grant to Lucasfilm a warrant (the "Warrant") for the purchase of up to 2,600,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of the common stock of Hasbro following exercise of the Warrant at a per share exercise price equal to $28.00, subject to adjustment as provided in the warrant dated as of the date hereof between Lucasfilm and Hasbro (the "Warrant"). 5.

The Total Exercise Price shall be paid by check; provided, however, that if the Warrant Shares are acquired in conjunction with a Registration of such Warrant Shares, then the Holder may arrange for the aggregate Exercise Price for such Warrant Shares to be paid to the Company from the proceeds of the sale of such Warrant Shares pursuant to such Registration. The Person or Person(s) in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing the Warrant Shares which are issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to become the Holder(s) of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of, such Warrant Shares, and such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and Notice of Exercise are presented and payment made for such Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such Warrant Shares shall not then be actually delivered to such Person or Person(s).

Upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the Company shall deliver to the Holder, without payment by the Holder of any Exercise Price or any cash or other consideration, that number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula: X= Y (A-B) ---------- A Where: X= The number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder Y= The number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant or such lesser number of Warrant Shares as may be selected by the Holder A= The Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share as of the Conversion Date B= The Exercise Price (b) Method of Exercise. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the Holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the Principal Executive Office, together with a written statement (the "Conversion Statement") specifying that the Holder intends to exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the number of Warrant Shares to be acquired upon exercise of the Conversion Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon the Company's receipt of this Warrant, together with the Conversion Statement, or on such later date as is specified in the Conversion Statement (the "Conversion Date") and, at the Holder's election, may be made contingent upon the closing of the consummation of the sale of Common Stock pursuant to a Registration.

If applicable, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares which Holder is entitled to purchase hereunder. The issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issuance tax with respect thereto or any other cost incurred by the Company in connection with the conversion of this Warrant and the related issuance of Warrant Shares; provided that the Holder will be responsible for any transfer taxes in respect of the issuance of Warrant Shares to a Person other than the Holder. 2.3.

As to any fractional share of Common Stock which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase from the Company upon such exercise or conversion, the Company shall purchase from the Holder such fractional share at a price equal to an amount calculated by multiplying such fractional share (calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a share) by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the Notice of Exercise or the Conversion Date, as applicable. Payment of such amount shall be made in cash or by check payable to the order of the Holder at the time of delivery of any certificate or certificates arising upon such exercise or conversion. 6 2.4. Continued Validity. A Shareholder shall be entitled to all rights which a Holder of this Warrant is entitled pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, except rights which by their terms apply only to a Warrant. ARTICLE III. TRANSFER, EXCHANGE AND REPLACEMENT 3.1. Maintenance of Registration Books. The Company shall keep at the Principal Executive Office a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall provide for the registration, transfer and exchange of this Warrant. The Company and any Company agent may treat the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the owner of this Warrant for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor any Company agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 3.2. Restrictions on Transfers. (a) Compliance with Securities Act. The Holder, by acceptance hereof hereby makes the representations set forth in Exhibit D-2 with respect to its acquisition of this Warrant and agrees that this Warrant and the Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon exercise hereof are being acquired for investment, solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other Person, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any such shares of Common Stock except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the Securities Act or this Agreement. Unless registered under the Securities Act, upon exercise of this Warrant (other than through conversion of the Warrant on or after two years from the date hereof), the Holder shall confirm in writing, by executing the form attached as Exhibit "D-2" hereto, that the shares of Common Stock purchased thereby are being acquired for investment, solely for the Holder's own account and not as a nominee for any other Person, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. (b) Certificate Legends. This Warrant and all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant (unless Registered under the Securities Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with legends in substantially the following form (in addition to any legends required by applicable state securities laws): THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT (A) (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR (iii) RECEIPT OF A NO-ACTION LETTER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND (B) OTHERWISE COMPLYING WITH THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE III OF THE WARRANT UNDER WHICH THIS SECURITY WAS ISSUED. In addition, the Warrant shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: THIS WARRANT MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED (i) OTHER THAN TO AN AFFILIATE (AS DEFINED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED) (ii) FOLLOWING A CHANGE IN CONTROL OR (iii) IN 7 CONNECTION WITH THE SALE OF ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE ASSETS, BUSINESS OR CAPITAL STOCK OF HOLDER, ALL AS PROVIDED HEREIN. (c) Additional Restriction on Transfer. The Holder shall not sell, assign or otherwise transfer, pledge or hypothecate all or part of this Warrant prior to a Change in Control without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld in the Company's sole discretion; provided that (x) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in its entirety to an entity owned or controlled by the Holder (but only for so long as it remains so owned or controlled and such entity agrees (i) to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant pursuant to an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company ("Assumption Agreement") and (ii) to transfer this Warrant back to the Holder if it ceases to be owned or controlled by the Holder), (y) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in connection with (i) the merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Holder, (ii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's assets or business in one or more related transactions or (iii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's capital stock, provided that any transferee described in this clause (y) executes an Assumption Agreement, (z) a bona fide pledge or hypothecation (so long as any sale, assignment or other transfer in connection with any attempted foreclosure of such a pledge or hypothecation would require such consent from the Company), and (zz) any transfer to a Person directly or indirectly controlling the Holder, provided such Person executes an Assumption Agreement, may be effected without any such consent. (d) Disposition of Warrant Shares. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant prior to Registration of such shares, the Shareholder agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of the Shareholder's counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without Registration under the Securities Act or qualification under any applicable state securities laws of such Warrant Shares and indicating whether or not under the Securities Act certificates for such Warrant Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of, require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, such opinion to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Promptly upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion, if so requested, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify the Shareholder that it may sell or otherwise dispose of such Warrant Shares all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this subsection (d) that the opinion of counsel for the Shareholder is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Shareholder promptly after such determination has been made and shall specify the legal analysis supporting any such conclusion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Warrant Shares may be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such information as the Company may reasonably request to provide reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate representing the Warrant Shares thus transferred in accordance with this subsection (d) (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the aforesaid reasonably satisfactory opinion of counsel for the Shareholder such legend is not necessary in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. (e) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under this Section 3.2 upon the transferability of the Warrant (other than those in Section 3.2(c)) and the shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall cease when (i) a registration statement covering the 8 applicable securities becomes effective under the Securities Act, (ii) the Company is presented with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such restrictions are no longer required in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act or with a Commission "no-action" letter stating that future transfers of such securities by the transferor or the contemplated transferee would be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, or (iii) such securities may be transferred in accordance with Rule 144(k). Subject to Section 3.2(c), if applicable, when such restrictions terminate, the Company shall, or shall instruct its transfer agent to, promptly, and without expense to the Shareholder issue new securities in the name of the Shareholder not bearing the legends required under subsection (b) of this Section 3.2. 3.3. Exchange. At the Holder's option, this Warrant may be exchanged for other Warrants representing the right to purchase a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock upon surrender of this Warrant at the Principal Executive Office. Whenever this Warrant is so surrendered to the Company at the Principal Executive Office for exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver the Warrants which the Holder is entitled to receive. All Warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Warrants shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Warrants surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. No service charge shall be made for any exchange of this Warrant. 3.4. Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (i) in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company in form and amount or (ii) in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation at the Principal Executive Office, the Company, at its expense, shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant. ARTICLE IV. ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS 4.1. Reorganization, Reclassification or Recapitalization of the Company. In case of (1) a capital reorganization, reclassification or recapitalization of the Company's capital stock (other than in the cases referred to in Section 4.2 hereof), (2) the Company's consolidation or merger with or into another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company's capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted, by virtue of the merger, into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, or (3) the sale or transfer of the Company's property as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, then, as part of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof (in lieu of or in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore deliverable, as appropriate), and without payment of any additional consideration, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise have been deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof at the time of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. This Section 4.1 shall apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. 4.2. Reclassifications. If the Company changes any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the 9 purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted. 4.3. Splits and Combinations. If the Company at any time subdivides any of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price under this Section 4.3, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall equal the number of shares determined by dividing (i) the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchase of all shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by (ii) the Exercise Price per share in effect immediately after such adjustment. 4.4. Dividends and Distributions. If the Company declares a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, as part of such dividend or distribution, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon and without payment of any additional consideration, the amount of the dividend or other distribution to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock obtained upon exercise hereof would have been entitled to receive had the exercise occurred as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. 4.5. Liquidation; Dissolution. If the Company shall dissolve, liquidate or wind up its affairs, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise this Warrant effective as of the date of such dissolution, liquidation or winding up. If any such dissolution, liquidation or winding up results in any cash distribution to the Holder in excess of the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised, then the Holder may, at its option, exercise this Warrant without making payment of such aggregate Exercise Price and, in such case, the Company shall, upon distribution to the Holder, consider such aggregate Exercise Price to have been paid in full, and in making such settlement to the Holder, shall deduct an amount equal to such aggregate Exercise Price from the amount payable to the Holder. 4.6. Antidilution Provisions. 4.6.1. Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4.6 the following definitions shall apply: "Common Stock Equivalents" shall mean Convertible Securities and rights entitling the holder thereof to receive directly, or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock without the payment of any consideration by such holder for such additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. "Common Stock Outstanding" shall mean the aggregate of all Common Stock outstanding and all Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Convertible Securities and exercise of all Options other than Employee Securities issued after October 14, 1997, unless such Employee Securities arise from exercise of Options granted prior to October 14, 1997. "Current Exercise Price" shall mean the Exercise Price immediately before the occurrence of any event, which, pursuant to Section 4.6, causes an adjustment to the Exercise Price. 10 4.6.2. Adjustments to Exercise Price. The Exercise Price in effect from time to time shall be subject to adjustment in certain cases as follows: 4.6.2.1. Issuance of Securities. Subject to Section 4.6.3, in case the Company shall at any time after October 14, 1997 issue or sell any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent without consideration, or for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance or sale, the Current Exercise Price shall simultaneously with such issuance or sale be adjusted to an Exercise Price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Current Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding on such date of sale or issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received for the issuance or sale of such additional shares would purchase at the Fair Market Value and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately after the issuance or sale. For the purposes of this subsection 4.6.2.1, the following provisions shall also be applicable: 4.6.2.1.1. Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance or sale of additional Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received by this corporation for such shares (or, if such shares are offered by the corporation for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such shares are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price), without deducting therefrom any compensation or discount paid or allowed to underwriters or dealers or others performing similar services or for any expenses incurred in connection therewith. 4.6.2.1.2. Non-Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance (otherwise than upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities) or sale of additional Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities for a consideration other than cash or a consideration, a part of which shall be other than cash, the fair value of such consideration as determined by the board of directors of the Company in the good faith exercise of its business judgment, irrespective of the accounting treatment thereof, shall be deemed to be the value, for purposes of this Section 4.6.2, of the consideration other than cash received by the Company for such securities. 4.6.2.1.3. Options and Convertible Securities. In case the Company shall in any manner issue or grant any Options or any Convertible Securities, the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable shall (as of the date of issue or grant of such Options or, in the case of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options, as of the date of such issue or sale) be deemed to be issued and to be outstanding for the purpose of this Section 4.6.2. and to have been issued for the sum of the amount (if any) paid for such Options or Convertible Securities and the minimum amount (if any) payable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable; provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 4.6.2.1.4, no adjustment or further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of (a) any such Common Stock or Convertible Securities or upon the conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities or the exercise of such Options or (b) any Common Stock issued or sold pursuant to conversion of any Convertible Securities or exercise of any Options to the extent outstanding on October 14, 1997. 11 4.6.2.1.4. Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If the exercise price provided for in any Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock shall change at any time (other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Current Exercise Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed exercise price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. If the exercise price provided for in any such Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the additional consideration (if any) payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, shall be reduced at any time under or by reason of provisions with respect thereto designed to protect against dilution and such reduction would trigger an adjustment under Subsection 4.6.2.1, then in case of the delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Security, the Current Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall, upon issuance of such shares of Common Stock, be adjusted to such amount as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security never been issued and had adjustments been made only upon the issuance of the shares of Common Stock actually delivered and for the consideration actually received for such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Stock. 4.6.2.1.5. Termination of Option or Conversion Rights. In the event of the termination or expiration of any right to purchase Common Stock under any Option or of any right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities, the Current Exercise Price shall, upon such termination, be changed to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible Security, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never been issued, and the shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder shall no longer be deemed to be Common Stock Outstanding. 4.6.3. Employee Securities. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IV to the contrary, the Exercise Price shall not be adjusted by virtue of the issuance or sale of Employee Securities and no Employee Securities shall be included in any manner in the computation from time to time of the Exercise Price under subsection 4.6.2 or in Common Stock Outstanding for purposes of such computation except that Employee Securities constituting Common Stock arising from exercise of Options granted prior to October 14, 1997 shall be included in Common Stock Outstanding. 4.7. Maximum Exercise Price. At no time shall the Exercise Price exceed the amount set forth in the Preamble to this Warrant, unless the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof. 4.8. Other Dilutive Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Article IV are not strictly applicable but the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles hereof, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the Company's regular auditors) which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Article IV, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant; provided, that no adjustments shall be made in connection with the issuance of Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of Options or Convertible Securities to the extent that adjustment has previously been made upon issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities and each lowering of the effective purchase price of Common Stock pursuant to such Option or Convertible Securities. Upon receipt of such opinion, the 12 Company shall promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder and shall make the adjustments described therein. 4.9. Certificates and Notices. (a) Adjustment Certificates. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, a certificate, signed by (i) the Company's President or Chief Financial Officer, or (ii) any independent firm of certified public accountants of recognized national standing the Company selects at its own expense, setting forth in reasonable detail the events requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, shall be mailed to the Holder and shall specify the adjusted Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant after giving effect to the adjustment. (b) Extraordinary Corporate Events. If the Company, after the date hereof, proposes to effect (i) any transaction described in Sections 4.1 or 4.2 hereof, or (ii) a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company described in Section 4.5 hereof or (iii) any payment of a dividend or distribution with respect to the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, in each such case, the Company shall mail to the Holder a notice describing such proposed action and specifying the date on which the Company's books shall close, or a record shall be taken, for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to participate in such action, or the date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall take place or commence, as the case may be, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to receive securities and/or other property deliverable upon such action, if any such date is to be fixed. Such notice shall be mailed to the Holder at least twenty days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (i) above at least ten days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (iii) above, and in the case of any action described in clause (ii) above, at least twenty days prior to the date on which the action described is to take place and at least twenty days prior to the record date for determining holders of Common Stock entitled to receive securities and/or other property in connection with such action. The failure to give notice required by this Section 4.9(b) or any defect therein shall be a breach of this Warrant but shall not affect the legality or validity of the action taken by the Company or the vote upon any such action. Unless specifically required by this Article IV, the Exercise Price, the number of shares covered by each Warrant and the number of Warrants outstanding shall not be subject to adjustment as a result of the Company being required to give notice pursuant to this Section 4.9(b). 4.10. No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of the Charter or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article IV and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. 4.11. Application. Except as otherwise provide herein, all sections of this Article IV are intended to operate independently of one another. If an event occurs that requires the application of more than one section, all applicable sections shall be given independent effect. ARTICLE V. REGISTRATION RIGHTS 5.1. Registration on Form S-3. 13 5.1.1. Filing of Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to secure effectiveness of, as soon as practicable, and shall file no later than 10 days after the commencement of the Exercise Period, a registration statement in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") with the Commission under the Securities Act to register the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant and the transfer of such Warrant Shares (the Warrant Shares constituting the "Registrable Securities"); provided however, that in the event the Company fails to file reports in a timely manner or otherwise fails (due to an action or inaction of the Company) to be eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-1. 5.1.2. Registrable Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses (as defined below) in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder, and each Holder shall pay all Selling Expenses (as defined below) and other expenses that are not Registration Expenses relating to the Registrable Securities resold by such Holder. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses, except for Selling Expenses, incurred by the Company in complying with the registration provisions herein described, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration. "Selling Expenses" shall mean all selling commissions, underwriting fees and stock transfer taxes applicable to the Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for any Holder. 5.1.3. Additional Company Obligations. In the case of any registration effected by the Company pursuant to these registration provisions, the Company will use its best efforts to: keep such registration effective until such date as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold or could immediately be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated by the Commission; (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the Registrable Securities; (iii) furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Holder from time to time may reasonably request; (iv) cause all such Registrable Securities registered as described herein to be listed on each securities exchange and quoted on each quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted; (v) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities; (vi) use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its securityholders, to the extent required, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months, beginning with the first month after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and (vii) file the documents required of the Company and otherwise use its best efforts to maintain requisite blue sky clearance in (A) all jurisdictions in which any of the Warrant Shares are originally sold and (B) all other states specified in writing by a Holder as may reasonably be required to sell such Holder's Warrant Shares, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business, subject itself to taxation, or consent to service of process in any state in which it is not now so qualified or subject to taxation or has not so consented. 5.1.4. Conditions and Limitations (a) Cooperation by Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Article V in respect of the Registrable Securities that the Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Registrable Securities and the 14 intended method of disposition thereof and such other information as the Company shall reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with the action taken by the Company. (b) Notification Prior to Sale. If any Holder shall propose to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, it shall notify the Company of its intent to do so at least three full business days prior to such sale, and the provision of such notice to the Company shall be deemed to establish an agreement by such Holder to comply with the registration provisions contained herein. Such notice shall be deemed to constitute a representation that any information previously supplied by such Holder is accurate as of the date of such notice. At any time within such three business day period, the Company may refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement; provided, however, that in order to exercise this right, the Company must deliver a certificate in writing to the Holder to the effect that a delay in such sale is necessary because, in the good faith judgment of the Company, a sale pursuant to the Registration Statement would require the public disclosure of information that would not otherwise be required to be disclosed (which disclosure would be likely, in the good faith judgment of the Company, to be materially harmful to the Company) or could in other respects constitute a violation of the federal securities laws. In such an event, the Company shall use its best efforts to amend the Registration Statement to the extent required to comply with Section 5.1.4 and to take all other actions necessary to allow such sale under the federal securities laws, and shall notify the Holders promptly after it has determined that such circumstances no longer exist. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not under any circumstances be entitled to refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities more than twice in any twelve-month period, and any individual period during which the Company refuses to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities shall not exceed sixty days. The Company will promptly notify each holder of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event or existence of any fact as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made, and, as promptly as is practicable, prepare and furnish to such holder a reasonable number of copies of any required supplement to or amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. By acquisition of Registrable Securities, each holder of such Registrable Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in the preceding sentence, such holder will promptly discontinue such holder's disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of any required supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by this Section. If so directed by the Company, each holder of Registrable Securities will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, in such holder's possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. Subject to the foregoing, when a Holder is entitled to sell and gives notice of its intent to sell pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company shall furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. 15 5.2. Indemnification and Contribution. 5.2.1. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which such Holder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any claim by a third party asserting any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or omission of a material fact therefrom necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, on the effective date thereof, or arise out of any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, and the Company will, as incurred, reimburse such Holder for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damages or liability arises out of, or is based upon (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered to the Holder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder. 5.2.2. Indemnification by Holder. Each Holder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which the Company may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon any claim by a third party asserting (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable in any such case for any untrue statement included in any prospectus which statement has been corrected, in writing, by such Holder and delivered to the Company at least three business days before the sale from which such loss occurred or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered by the Holder to the purchaser prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder, and each Holder, severally and not jointly, will, as incurred, reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim. 5.2.3. Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 5.2, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person and the indemnifying person shall have been notified thereof, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of the indemnifying person's election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the indemnified person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that in the case of the immediately preceding proviso the indemnifying person shall not be responsible for the legal expenses of more than one counsel for all indemnified persons. 16 5.2.4. Contribution in Lieu of Indemnity. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.2 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 5.2.1 or 5.2.2 above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefit and relative fault of the respective parties as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or a Holder on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.2.4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 5.2.4. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 5.2.4 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.2.4, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net amount received by the Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities to which such loss relates. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations in this Section 5.2.4 to contribute are several in proportion to their respective sales of Registrable Securities to which such loss relates and not joint. 5.2.5. Controlling Persons Indemnified. The obligations of the Company and the Holders under this Section 5.2 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the respective Holders may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls or may be deemed to control the Company or any Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act including, without limitation, the directors and officers of the Company and the Holder, as the case may be. 5.3. Transfer Of Registration Rights. The right to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement described herein will automatically be assigned to each transferee of the Warrant or Warrant Shares permitted under the terms of this Warrant. In the event that it is necessary, in order to permit a Holder to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, to amend the Registration Statement to name such Holder, such Holder shall upon written notice to the Company, be entitled to have the Company make such amendment as soon as reasonably practicable.

Except as contemplated by Article V and Section 6.2(b), no consent, approval, authorization or other order of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental body is required for the valid issuance of the Warrant or for the performance of any of the Company's obligations hereunder, except in connection with listing of the Warrant Shares on the American Stock Exchange, which listing will be effected in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange; (i) Offering.

The Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance or transfer upon exercise of the rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant 18 (for purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all other Options and warrants to acquire Common Stock and upon conversion of all instruments convertible into Common Stock shall be deemed issued and outstanding); (b) Proper Issuance. The Company, at its expense, will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any domestic securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which any capital stock of the Company may be listed or quoted, as the case may be, provided that the Holder, at its sole expense, will take all such action as may be necessary under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, in connection with its acquisition of securities of the Company.

Nonwaiver; Cumulative Remedies. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Holder and/or any Shareholder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the rights, powers or remedies of the Holder or such Shareholder. No 19 single or partial waiver by the Holder and/or any Shareholder of any provision of this Warrant or of any breach or default hereunder or of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of any other provision, breach, default right or remedy or of the same provision, breach, default, right or remedy on a future occasion.

(b) If any term is not curable as set forth in subsection (a) above, the unenforceability of such term shall not affect the other provisions of this Warrant but this Warrant shall be construed as if such unenforceable term had never been contained herein. 7.10. Integration.

Payment of such amount shall be made in cash or by check payable to the order of the Holder at the time of delivery of any certificate or certificates arising upon such exercise or conversion. 2.4.

(b) Certificate Legends. This Warrant and all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant (unless Registered under the Securities Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with legends in substantially the following form (in addition to any legends required by applicable state securities laws): THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT (A) (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR (iii) RECEIPT OF A NO-ACTION LETTER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND (B) OTHERWISE COMPLYING WITH THE 7 PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE III OF THE WARRANT UNDER WHICH THIS SECURITY WAS ISSUED.

(c) Additional Restriction on Transfer. The Holder shall not sell, assign or otherwise transfer, pledge or hypothecate all or part of this Warrant prior to a Change in Control without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld in the Company's sole discretion; provided that (x) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in its entirety to an entity owned or controlled by the Holder (but only for so long as it remains so owned or controlled and such entity agrees (i) to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant pursuant to an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company ("Assumption Agreement") and (ii) to transfer this Warrant back to the Holder if it ceases to be owned or controlled by the Holder), (y) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in connection with (i) the merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Holder, (ii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's assets or business in one or more related transactions or (iii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's capital stock, provided that any transferee described in this clause (y) executes an Assumption Agreement, (z) a bona fide pledge or hypothecation (so long as any sale, assignment or other transfer in connection with any attempted foreclosure of such a pledge or hypothecation would require such consent from the Company), and (zz) any transfer to a Person directly or indirectly controlling the Holder, provided such Person executes an Assumption Agreement, may be effected without any such consent. (d) Disposition of Warrant Shares. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant prior to Registration of such shares, the Shareholder agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of the Shareholder's counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without Registration under the Securities Act or qualification under any applicable state securities laws of such Warrant Shares and indicating whether or not under the Securities Act certificates for such Warrant Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of, require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, such opinion to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Promptly upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion, if so requested, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify the Shareholder that it may sell or otherwise dispose of such Warrant Shares all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this subsection (d) that the opinion of counsel for the Shareholder is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Shareholder promptly after such determination has been made and shall specify the legal analysis supporting any such conclusion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Warrant Shares may be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such information as the Company may reasonably request to provide reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate 8 representing the Warrant Shares thus transferred in accordance with this subsection (d) (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the aforesaid reasonably satisfactory opinion of counsel for the Shareholder such legend is not necessary in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. (e) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under this Section 3.2 upon the transferability of the Warrant (other than those in Section 3.2(c)) and the shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall cease when (i) a registration statement covering the applicable securities becomes effective under the Securities Act, (ii) the Company is presented with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such restrictions are no longer required in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act or with a Commission "no-action" letter stating that future transfers of such securities by the transferor or the contemplated transferee would be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, or (iii) such securities may be transferred in accordance with Rule 144(k). Subject to Section 3.2(c), if applicable, when such restrictions terminate, the Company shall, or shall instruct its transfer agent to, promptly, and without expense to the Shareholder issue new securities in the name of the Shareholder not bearing the legends required under subsection (b) of this Section 3.2. 3.3. Exchange. At the Holder's option, this Warrant may be exchanged for other Warrants representing the right to purchase a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock upon surrender of this Warrant at the Principal Executive Office. Whenever this Warrant is so surrendered to the Company at the Principal Executive Office for exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver the Warrants which the Holder is entitled to receive. All Warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Warrants shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Warrants surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. No service charge shall be made for any exchange of this Warrant. 3.4. Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (i) in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company in form and amount or (ii) in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation at the Principal Executive Office, the Company, at its expense, shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant. ARTICLE IV. ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS 4.1. Reorganization, Reclassification or Recapitalization of the Company. In case of (1) a capital reorganization, reclassification or recapitalization of the Company's capital stock (other than in the cases referred to in Section 4.2 hereof), (2) the Company's consolidation or merger with or into another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company's capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted, by virtue of the merger, into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, or (3) the sale or transfer of the Company's property as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, then, as part of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof (in lieu of or in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore deliverable, as appropriate), and without payment of any additional consideration, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise have been deliverable upon the exercise of this 9 Warrant or any portion thereof at the time of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. This Section 4.1 shall apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. 4.2. Reclassifications. If the Company changes any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted. 4.3. Splits and Combinations. If the Company at any time subdivides any of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price under this Section 4.3, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall equal the number of shares determined by dividing (i) the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchase of all shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by (ii) the Exercise Price per share in effect immediately after such adjustment. 4.4. Dividends and Distributions. If the Company declares a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, as part of such dividend or distribution, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon and without payment of any additional consideration, the amount of the dividend or other distribution to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock obtained upon exercise hereof would have been entitled to receive had the exercise occurred as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. 4.5. Liquidation; Dissolution. If the Company shall dissolve, liquidate or wind up its affairs, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise this Warrant effective as of the date of such dissolution, liquidation or winding up. If any such dissolution, liquidation or winding up results in any cash distribution to the Holder in excess of the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised, then the Holder may, at its option, exercise this Warrant without making payment of such aggregate Exercise Price and, in such case, the Company shall, upon distribution to the Holder, consider such aggregate Exercise Price to have been paid in full, and in making such settlement to the Holder, shall deduct an amount equal to such aggregate Exercise Price from the amount payable to the Holder. 4.6.

Subject to Section 4.6.3, in case the Company shall at any time after October 14, 1997 issue or sell any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent without consideration, or for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance or sale, the Current Exercise Price shall simultaneously with such issuance or sale be adjusted to an Exercise Price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Current Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding on such date of sale or issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received for the issuance or sale of such additional shares would purchase at the Fair Market Value and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately after the issuance or sale. For the purposes of this subsection 4.6.2.1, the following provisions shall also be applicable: 4.6.2.1.1. Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance or sale of additional Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received by this corporation for such shares (or, if such shares are offered by the corporation for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such shares are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price), without deducting therefrom any compensation or discount paid or allowed to underwriters or dealers or others performing similar services or for any expenses incurred in connection therewith. 4.6.2.1.2. Non-Cash Consideration.

Options and Convertible Securities. In case the Company shall in any manner issue or grant any Options or any Convertible Securities, the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become 11 convertible or exchangeable shall (as of the date of issue or grant of such Options or, in the case of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options, as of the date of such issue or sale) be deemed to be issued and to be outstanding for the purpose of this Section 4.6.2. and to have been issued for the sum of the amount (if any) paid for such Options or Convertible Securities and the minimum amount (if any) payable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable; provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 4.6.2.1.4, no adjustment or further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of (a) any such Common Stock or Convertible Securities or upon the conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities or the exercise of such Options or (b) any Common Stock issued or sold pursuant to conversion of any Convertible Securities or exercise of any Options to the extent outstanding on October 14, 1997. 4.6.2.1.4. Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If the exercise price provided for in any Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock shall change at any time (other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Current Exercise Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed exercise price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. If the exercise price provided for in any such Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the additional consideration (if any) payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, shall be reduced at any time under or by reason of provisions with respect thereto designed to protect against dilution and such reduction would trigger an adjustment under Subsection 4.6.2.1, then in case of the delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Security, the Current Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall, upon issuance of such shares of Common Stock, be adjusted to such amount as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security never been issued and had adjustments been made only upon the issuance of the shares of Common Stock actually delivered and for the consideration actually received for such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Stock. 4.6.2.1.5. Termination of Option or Conversion Rights. In the event of the termination or expiration of any right to purchase Common Stock under any Option or of any right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities, the Current Exercise Price shall, upon such termination, be changed to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible Security, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never been issued, and the shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder shall no longer be deemed to be Common Stock Outstanding. 4.6.3. Employee Securities. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IV to the contrary, the Exercise Price shall not be adjusted by virtue of the issuance or sale of Employee Securities and no Employee Securities shall be included in any manner in the computation from time to time of the Exercise Price under subsection 4.6.2 or in Common Stock Outstanding for purposes of such computation except that Employee Securities constituting Common Stock arising from exercise of Options granted prior to October 14, 1997 shall be included in Common Stock Outstanding. 4.7. Maximum Exercise Price. At no time shall the Exercise Price exceed the amount set forth in the Preamble to this Warrant, unless the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof. 12 4.8. Other Dilutive Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Article IV are not strictly applicable but the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles hereof, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the Company's regular auditors) which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Article IV, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant; provided, that no adjustments shall be made in connection with the issuance of Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of Options or Convertible Securities to the extent that adjustment has previously been made upon issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities and each lowering of the effective purchase price of Common Stock pursuant to such Option or Convertible Securities. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder and shall make the adjustments described therein. 4.9. Certificates and Notices. (a) Adjustment Certificates. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, a certificate, signed by (i) the Company's President or Chief Financial Officer, or (ii) any independent firm of certified public accountants of recognized national standing the Company selects at its own expense, setting forth in reasonable detail the events requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, shall be mailed to the Holder and shall specify the adjusted Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant after giving effect to the adjustment. (b) Extraordinary Corporate Events. If the Company, after the date hereof, proposes to effect (i) any transaction described in Sections 4.1 or 4.2 hereof, or (ii) a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company described in Section 4.5 hereof or (iii) any payment of a dividend or distribution with respect to the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, in each such case, the Company shall mail to the Holder a notice describing such proposed action and specifying the date on which the Company's books shall close, or a record shall be taken, for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to participate in such action, or the date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall take place or commence, as the case may be, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to receive securities and/or other property deliverable upon such action, if any such date is to be fixed. Such notice shall be mailed to the Holder at least twenty days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (i) above at least ten days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (iii) above, and in the case of any action described in clause (ii) above, at least twenty days prior to the date on which the action described is to take place and at least twenty days prior to the record date for determining holders of Common Stock entitled to receive securities and/or other property in connection with such action. The failure to give notice required by this Section 4.9(b) or any defect therein shall be a breach of this Warrant but shall not affect the legality or validity of the action taken by the Company or the vote upon any such action. Unless specifically required by this Article IV, the Exercise Price, the number of shares covered by each Warrant and the number of Warrants outstanding shall not be subject to adjustment as a result of the Company being required to give notice pursuant to this Section 4.9(b). 4.10. No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of the Charter or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in 13 the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article IV and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. 4.11. Application. Except as otherwise provide herein, all sections of this Article IV are intended to operate independently of one another. If an event occurs that requires the application of more than one section, all applicable sections shall be given independent effect. ARTICLE V. REGISTRATION RIGHTS 5.1. Registration on Form S-3. 5.1.1. Filing of Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to secure effectiveness of, as soon as practicable, and shall file no later than 10 days after the commencement of the Exercise Period, a registration statement in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") with the Commission under the Securities Act to register the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant and the transfer of such Warrant Shares (the Warrant Shares constituting the "Registrable Securities"); provided however, that in the event the Company fails to file reports in a timely manner or otherwise fails (due to an action or inaction of the Company) to be eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-1. 5.1.2. Registrable Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses (as defined below) in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder, and each Holder shall pay all Selling Expenses (as defined below) and other expenses that are not Registration Expenses relating to the Registrable Securities resold by such Holder. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses, except for Selling Expenses, incurred by the Company in complying with the registration provisions herein described, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration. "Selling Expenses" shall mean all selling commissions, underwriting fees and stock transfer taxes applicable to the Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for any Holder. 5.1.3. Additional Company Obligations. In the case of any registration effected by the Company pursuant to these registration provisions, the Company will use its best efforts to: keep such registration effective until such date as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold or could immediately be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated by the Commission; (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the Registrable Securities; (iii) furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Holder from time to time may reasonably request; (iv) cause all such Registrable Securities registered as described herein to be listed on each securities exchange and quoted on each quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted; (v) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities; (vi) use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its securityholders, to the extent required, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months, beginning with the first month after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and (vii) file the documents required of the Company and otherwise use its best efforts to maintain requisite blue sky clearance in 14 (A) all jurisdictions in which any of the Warrant Shares are originally sold and (B) all other states specified in writing by a Holder as may reasonably be required to sell such Holder's Warrant Shares, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business, subject itself to taxation, or consent to service of process in any state in which it is not now so qualified or subject to taxation or has not so consented. 5.1.4. Conditions and Limitations (a) Cooperation by Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Article V in respect of the Registrable Securities that the Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Registrable Securities and the intended method of disposition thereof and such other information as the Company shall reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with the action taken by the Company. (b) Notification Prior to Sale. If any Holder shall propose to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, it shall notify the Company of its intent to do so at least three full business days prior to such sale, and the provision of such notice to the Company shall be deemed to establish an agreement by such Holder to comply with the registration provisions contained herein. Such notice shall be deemed to constitute a representation that any information previously supplied by such Holder is accurate as of the date of such notice. At any time within such three business day period, the Company may refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement; provided, however, that in order to exercise this right, the Company must deliver a certificate in writing to the Holder to the effect that a delay in such sale is necessary because, in the good faith judgment of the Company, a sale pursuant to the Registration Statement would require the public disclosure of information that would not otherwise be required to be disclosed (which disclosure would be likely, in the good faith judgment of the Company, to be materially harmful to the Company) or could in other respects constitute a violation of the federal securities laws. In such an event, the Company shall use its best efforts to amend the Registration Statement to the extent required to comply with Section 5.1.4 and to take all other actions necessary to allow such sale under the federal securities laws, and shall notify the Holders promptly after it has determined that such circumstances no longer exist. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not under any circumstances be entitled to refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities more than twice in any twelve-month period, and any individual period during which the Company refuses to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities shall not exceed sixty days. The Company will promptly notify each holder of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event or existence of any fact as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made, and, as promptly as is practicable, prepare and furnish to such holder a reasonable number of copies of any required supplement to or amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. By acquisition of Registrable Securities, each holder of such Registrable Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in the preceding sentence, such holder will promptly discontinue such holder's disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of any required supplemented 15 or amended prospectus contemplated by this Section. If so directed by the Company, each holder of Registrable Securities will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, in such holder's possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. Subject to the foregoing, when a Holder is entitled to sell and gives notice of its intent to sell pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company shall furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. 5.2. Indemnification and Contribution. 5.2.1. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which such Holder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any claim by a third party asserting any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or omission of a material fact therefrom necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, on the effective date thereof, or arise out of any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, and the Company will, as incurred, reimburse such Holder for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damages or liability arises out of, or is based upon (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered to the Holder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder. 5.2.2. Indemnification by Holder. Each Holder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which the Company may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon any claim by a third party asserting (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable in any such case for any untrue statement included in any prospectus which statement has been corrected, in writing, by such Holder and delivered to the Company at least three business days before the sale from which such loss occurred or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered by the Holder to the purchaser prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder, and each Holder, severally and not jointly, will, as incurred, reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim. 5.2.3. Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 5.2, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person and the indemnifying person shall have been notified thereof, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate 16 therein, and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of the indemnifying person's election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the indemnified person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that in the case of the immediately preceding proviso the indemnifying person shall not be responsible for the legal expenses of more than one counsel for all indemnified persons. 5.2.4. Contribution in Lieu of Indemnity. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.2 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 5.2.1 or 5.2.2 above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefit and relative fault of the respective parties as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or a Holder on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.2.4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 5.2.4. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 5.2.4 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.2.4, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net amount received by the Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities to which such loss relates. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations in this Section 5.2.4 to contribute are several in proportion to their respective sales of Registrable Securities to which such loss relates and not joint. 5.2.5. Controlling Persons Indemnified. The obligations of the Company and the Holders under this Section 5.2 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the respective Holders may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls or may be deemed to control the Company or any Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act including, without limitation, the directors and officers of the Company and the Holder, as the case may be. 5.3. Transfer Of Registration Rights. The right to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement described herein will automatically be assigned to each transferee of the Warrant or Warrant Shares permitted under the terms of this Warrant. In the event that it is necessary, in order to permit a Holder to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, to amend the 17 Registration Statement to name such Holder, such Holder shall upon written notice to the Company, be entitled to have the Company make such amendment as soon as reasonably practicable. ARTICLE VI. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF COMPANY 6.1. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants that as of the date hereof: (a) Legal Status; Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Rhode Island and is qualified or licensed to do business in all other countries, states and provinces in which the laws thereof require the Company to qualify and/or be licensed, except where failure to qualify or be licensed would not have a material adverse effect on the business or assets of the Company taken as a whole; (b) Capitalization. The Company's authorized capital stock consists of: 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of which 126,352,563 shares are issued and outstanding; (c) Options.

No shareholder of the Company has any preemptive rights to subscribe for shares of Common Stock; (e) Authority. The Company has the right and power, and is duly authorized and empowered, to enter into, execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Warrant; (f) Binding Effect. This Warrant has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity; (g) No Conflict. The execution, delivery and/or performance by the Company of this Warrant shall not, by the lapse of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, constitute a violation of any applicable law or a breach of any provision contained in the Company's Charter or Bylaws or contained in any agreement, instrument or document to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound; (h) Consents. Except as contemplated by Article V and Section 6.2(b), no consent, approval, authorization or other order of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental body is required for the valid issuance of the Warrant or for the performance of any of the Company's obligations hereunder, except in connection with listing of the Warrant Shares on the American Stock Exchange, which listing will be effected in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange; (i) Offering. Neither the Company nor any agent acting on its behalf has, either directly or indirectly, sold, offered for sale or disposed of, or attempted or offered to dispose of, this Warrant or any part hereof, or any similar obligation of the Company, to, or has solicited any offers to buy 18 any thereof from, any Person or Persons other than the Holder. Neither the Company nor any agent acting on its behalf will sell or offer for sale or dispose of, or attempt or offer to dispose of, this Warrant or any part thereof to, or solicit any offers to buy any warrant of like tenor from, or otherwise approach or negotiate in respect thereof, with, any Person or Persons so as thereby to bring the issuance of this Warrant within the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act; (j) Registration. Assuming the accuracy of the Holder's representations made herein, it is not necessary in connection with the issuance and sale of this Warrant to the Holder pursuant to this Agreement to Register this Warrant under the Securities Act; and 6.2. Covenants. The Company covenants that: (a) Authorized Shares. The Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance or transfer upon exercise of the rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant (for purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all other Options and warrants to acquire Common Stock and upon conversion of all instruments convertible into Common Stock shall be deemed issued and outstanding); (b) Proper Issuance. The Company, at its expense, will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any domestic securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which any capital stock of the Company may be listed or quoted, as the case may be, provided that the Holder, at its sole expense, will take all such action as may be necessary under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, in connection with its acquisition of securities of the Company. Such action by the Company may include, but not be limited to, causing such shares to be duly registered or approved, listed or quoted on relevant domestic securities exchanges or automated quotation systems; and (c) Fully Paid Shares. The Company will take all actions necessary or appropriate to validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant. All such shares will be free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof, other than any stock transfer taxes in respect to any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issuance. ARTICLE VII. MISCELLANEOUS 7.1. Certain Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes (other than stock transfer and income taxes) and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of, the issuance, sale and delivery of the Warrant and the Warrant Shares to the Holder. 7.2. Holder Not a Shareholder. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant as hereinbefore provided, the Holder shall not be entitled to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company including, without limitation, the right as a shareholder (i) to vote on or consent to any proposed action of the Company or (ii) except as provided herein, to receive (a) dividends or any other distributions made to shareholders, (b) notice of or attend any meetings of shareholders of the Company or (c) notice of any other proceedings of the Company. 19 7.3. Like Tenor. All Warrants shall at all times be substantially identical except as to the Preamble. 7.4. Remedies. The Company stipulates that the remedies at law of the Holder in the event of any default or threatened default by the Company in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are not and will not be adequate to the fullest extent permitted by law, and that such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise. 7.5. Enforcement Costs. If the Holder, a Shareholder or the Company seeks to enforce its rights hereunder by legal proceedings or otherwise, then the non-prevailing party shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party, including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys' fees (including the allocable costs of in-house counsel). 7.6. Nonwaiver; Cumulative Remedies. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Holder and/or any Shareholder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the rights, powers or remedies of the Holder or such Shareholder. No single or partial waiver by the Holder and/or any Shareholder of any provision of this Warrant or of any breach or default hereunder or of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of any other provision, breach, default right or remedy or of the same provision, breach, default, right or remedy on a future occasion. The rights and remedies provided in this Warrant are cumulative and are in addition to all rights and remedies which the Holder and each Shareholder may have in law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. 7.7. Notices. Any notice, demand or delivery to be made pursuant to this Warrant will be sufficiently given or made if sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, nationally recognized overnight delivery service or facsimile transmission, addressed to (a) the Holder and the Shareholders at their last known addresses appearing on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose or (b) the Company at its Principal Executive Office. The Holder, the Shareholders and the Company may each designate a different address by notice to the other pursuant to this Section 7.7. A notice shall be deemed effective upon receipt. 7.8. Successors and Assigns. This Warrant shall be binding upon, the Company and any Person succeeding the Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, and all of the obligations of the Company with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall survive the exercise, expiration or termination of this Warrant and all of the covenants and agreements of the Company shall inure to the benefit of the Holder, each Shareholder and their respective successors and assigns. The Company shall, at the time of exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, upon request of the Holder or any Shareholder but at the Company's expense, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligations hereunder with respect to rights of the Holder or such Shareholder to which it shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms hereof; provided that the failure of the Holder or any Shareholder to make any such request shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to the Holder or such Shareholder in respect of such rights. 7.9. Modification; Severability. (a) If, in any action before any court or agency legally empowered to enforce any term, any term is found to be unenforceable, then such term shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or agency. 20 (b) If any term is not curable as set forth in subsection (a) above, the unenforceability of such term shall not affect the other provisions of this Warrant but this Warrant shall be construed as if such unenforceable term had never been contained herein. 7.10. Integration. This Warrant replaces all prior and contemporaneous agreements and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous negotiations between the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated herein. 7.11. Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of any party in this Warrant shall survive the execution and delivery of this Warrant and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding any investigation by the such party or its agents. 7.12. Amendment. This Warrant may not be modified or amended except by written agreement of the Company, the Holder and the Shareholder(s), if any, holding a majority of the Warrant Shares. 7.13. Headings. The headings of the Articles and Sections of this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant. 7.14. Meanings. Whenever used in this Warrant, any noun or pronoun shall be deemed to include both the singular and plural and to cover all genders; and the words "herein," "hereof" and "hereunder" and words of similar import shall refer to this instrument as a whole, including any amendments hereto. 7.15. Governing Law.

Payment of such amount shall be made in cash or by check payable to the order of the Holder at the time of delivery of any certificate or certificates arising upon such exercise or conversion. 2.4.

NO SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT (A) (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR (iii) RECEIPT OF A NO-ACTION LETTER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND (B) OTHERWISE COMPLYING WITH THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE III OF THE WARRANT UNDER WHICH THIS SECURITY WAS ISSUED.

(c) Additional Restriction on Transfer. The Holder shall not sell, assign or otherwise transfer, pledge or hypothecate all or part of this Warrant prior to a Change in Control without the prior 7 written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld in the Company's sole discretion; provided that (x) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in its entirety to an entity owned or controlled by the Holder (but only for so long as it remains so owned or controlled and such entity agrees (i) to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant pursuant to an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company ("Assumption Agreement") and (ii) to transfer this Warrant back to the Holder if it ceases to be owned or controlled by the Holder), (y) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in connection with (i) the merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Holder, (ii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's assets or business in one or more related transactions or (iii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's capital stock, provided that any transferee described in this clause (y) executes an Assumption Agreement, (z) a bona fide pledge or hypothecation (so long as any sale, assignment or other transfer in connection with any attempted foreclosure of such a pledge or hypothecation would require such consent from the Company), and (zz) any transfer to a Person directly or indirectly controlling the Holder, provided such Person executes an Assumption Agreement, may be effected without any such consent. (d) Disposition of Warrant Shares. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant prior to Registration of such shares, the Shareholder agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of the Shareholder's counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without Registration under the Securities Act or qualification under any applicable state securities laws of such Warrant Shares and indicating whether or not under the Securities Act certificates for such Warrant Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of, require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, such opinion to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Promptly upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion, if so requested, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify the Shareholder that it may sell or otherwise dispose of such Warrant Shares all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this subsection (d) that the opinion of counsel for the Shareholder is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Shareholder promptly after such determination has been made and shall specify the legal analysis supporting any such conclusion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Warrant Shares may be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such information as the Company may reasonably request to provide reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate representing the Warrant Shares thus transferred in accordance with this subsection (d) (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the aforesaid reasonably satisfactory opinion of counsel for the Shareholder such legend is not necessary in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. (e) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under this Section 3.2 upon the transferability of the Warrant (other than those in Section 3.2(c)) and the shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall cease when (i) a registration statement covering the applicable securities becomes effective under the Securities Act, (ii) the Company is presented with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such restrictions are no longer required in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act or with a Commission "no-action" letter stating that future transfers of such securities by the transferor or the contemplated transferee would be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, or (iii) such securities may be transferred in accordance with Rule 144(k). Subject to Section 3.2(c), if applicable, when such restrictions terminate, the Company shall, or 8 shall instruct its transfer agent to, promptly, and without expense to the Shareholder issue new securities in the name of the Shareholder not bearing the legends required under subsection (b) of this Section 3.2. 3.3. Exchange. At the Holder's option, this Warrant may be exchanged for other Warrants representing the right to purchase a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock upon surrender of this Warrant at the Principal Executive Office. Whenever this Warrant is so surrendered to the Company at the Principal Executive Office for exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver the Warrants which the Holder is entitled to receive. All Warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Warrants shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Warrants surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

ARTICLE IV. ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS 4.1. Reorganization, Reclassification or Recapitalization of the Company. In case of (1) a capital reorganization, reclassification or recapitalization of the Company's capital stock (other than in the cases referred to in Section 4.2 hereof), (2) the Company's consolidation or merger with or into another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company's capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted, by virtue of the merger, into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, or (3) the sale or transfer of the Company's property as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, then, as part of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof (in lieu of or in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore deliverable, as appropriate), and without payment of any additional consideration, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise have been deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof at the time of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. This Section 4.1 shall apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. 4.2. Reclassifications. If the Company changes any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted. 4.3. Splits and Combinations. If the Company at any time subdivides any of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price under this 9 Section 4.3, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall equal the number of shares determined by dividing (i) the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchase of all shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by (ii) the Exercise Price per share in effect immediately after such adjustment. 4.4. Dividends and Distributions. If the Company declares a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, as part of such dividend or distribution, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon and without payment of any additional consideration, the amount of the dividend or other distribution to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock obtained upon exercise hereof would have been entitled to receive had the exercise occurred as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. 4.5. Liquidation; Dissolution. If the Company shall dissolve, liquidate or wind up its affairs, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise this Warrant effective as of the date of such dissolution, liquidation or winding up. If any such dissolution, liquidation or winding up results in any cash distribution to the Holder in excess of the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised, then the Holder may, at its option, exercise this Warrant without making payment of such aggregate Exercise Price and, in such case, the Company shall, upon distribution to the Holder, consider such aggregate Exercise Price to have been paid in full, and in making such settlement to the Holder, shall deduct an amount equal to such aggregate Exercise Price from the amount payable to the Holder. 4.6. Antidilution Provisions. 4.6.1. Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4.6 the following definitions shall apply: "Common Stock Equivalents" shall mean Convertible Securities and rights entitling the holder thereof to receive directly, or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock without the payment of any consideration by such holder for such additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. "Common Stock Outstanding" shall mean the aggregate of all Common Stock outstanding and all Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Convertible Securities and exercise of all Options other than Employee Securities issued after October 30, 1998, unless such Employee Securities arise from exercise of Options granted prior to October 30, 1998. "Current Exercise Price" shall mean the Exercise Price immediately before the occurrence of any event, which, pursuant to Section 4.6, causes an adjustment to the Exercise Price. 4.6.2. Adjustments to Exercise Price. The Exercise Price in effect from time to time shall be subject to adjustment in certain cases as follows: 4.6.2.1. Issuance of Securities. Subject to Section 4.6.3, in case the Company shall at any time after October 30, 1998 issue or sell any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent without consideration, or for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance or sale, the Current Exercise Price shall simultaneously with such issuance or sale be adjusted to an Exercise Price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Current Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding on such date of sale or issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received for the issuance or sale 10 of such additional shares would purchase at the Fair Market Value and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately after the issuance or sale. For the purposes of this subsection 4.6.2.1, the following provisions shall also be applicable: 4.6.2.1.1. Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance or sale of additional Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received by this corporation for such shares (or, if such shares are offered by the corporation for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such shares are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price), without deducting therefrom any compensation or discount paid or allowed to underwriters or dealers or others performing similar services or for any expenses incurred in connection therewith. 4.6.2.1.2. Non-Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance (otherwise than upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities) or sale of additional Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities for a consideration other than cash or a consideration, a part of which shall be other than cash, the fair value of such consideration as determined by the board of directors of the Company in the good faith exercise of its business judgment, irrespective of the accounting treatment thereof, shall be deemed to be the value, for purposes of this Section 4.6.2, of the consideration other than cash received by the Company for such securities. 4.6.2.1.3. Options and Convertible Securities. In case the Company shall in any manner issue or grant any Options or any Convertible Securities, the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable shall (as of the date of issue or grant of such Options or, in the case of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options, as of the date of such issue or sale) be deemed to be issued and to be outstanding for the purpose of this Section 4.6.2. and to have been issued for the sum of the amount (if any) paid for such Options or Convertible Securities and the minimum amount (if any) payable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable; provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 4.6.2.1.4, no adjustment or further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of (a) any such Common Stock or Convertible Securities or upon the conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities or the exercise of such Options or (b) any Common Stock issued or sold pursuant to conversion of any Convertible Securities or exercise of any Options to the extent outstanding on October 30, 1998. 4.6.2.1.4. Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If the exercise price provided for in any Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock shall change at any time (other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Current Exercise Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed exercise price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. If the exercise price provided for in any such Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the additional consideration (if any) payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, shall be reduced at any time under or by reason of provisions with respect thereto designed to protect against dilution and such reduction would trigger an adjustment under Subsection 4.6.2.1, then in case of the delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Security, the Current Exercise Price then 11 in effect hereunder shall, upon issuance of such shares of Common Stock, be adjusted to such amount as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security never been issued and had adjustments been made only upon the issuance of the shares of Common Stock actually delivered and for the consideration actually received for such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Stock. 4.6.2.1.5. Termination of Option or Conversion Rights. In the event of the termination or expiration of any right to purchase Common Stock under any Option or of any right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities, the Current Exercise Price shall, upon such termination, be changed to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible Security, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never been issued, and the shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder shall no longer be deemed to be Common Stock Outstanding. 4.6.3. Employee Securities. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IV to the contrary, the Exercise Price shall not be adjusted by virtue of the issuance or sale of Employee Securities and no Employee Securities shall be included in any manner in the computation from time to time of the Exercise Price under subsection 4.6.2 or in Common Stock Outstanding for purposes of such computation except that Employee Securities constituting Common Stock arising from exercise of Options granted prior to October 30, 1998 shall be included in Common Stock Outstanding. 4.7. Maximum Exercise Price. At no time shall the Exercise Price exceed the amount set forth in the Preamble to this Warrant, unless the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof. 4.8. Other Dilutive Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Article IV are not strictly applicable but the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles hereof, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the Company's regular auditors) which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Article IV, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant; provided, that no adjustments shall be made in connection with the issuance of Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of Options or Convertible Securities to the extent that adjustment has previously been made upon issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities and each lowering of the effective purchase price of Common Stock pursuant to such Option or Convertible Securities. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder and shall make the adjustments described therein. 4.9. Certificates and Notices. (a) Adjustment Certificates. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, a certificate, signed by (i) the Company's President or Chief Financial Officer, or (ii) any independent firm of certified public accountants of recognized national standing the Company selects at its own expense, setting forth in reasonable detail the events requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, shall be mailed to the Holder and shall specify the adjusted Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant after giving effect to the adjustment. (b) Extraordinary Corporate Events. If the Company, after the date hereof, proposes to effect (i) any transaction described in Sections 4.1 or 4.2 hereof, or (ii) a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company described in Section 4.5 hereof or (iii) any payment of a dividend or distribution with respect to the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, in each such case, the Company shall mail to the Holder a notice describing such proposed action and specifying the date on which the Company's books shall close, or a record shall be taken, for determining the holders 12 of Common Stock entitled to participate in such action, or the date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall take place or commence, as the case may be, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to receive securities and/or other property deliverable upon such action, if any such date is to be fixed. Such notice shall be mailed to the Holder at least twenty days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (i) above at least ten days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (iii) above, and in the case of any action described in clause (ii) above, at least twenty days prior to the date on which the action described is to take place and at least twenty days prior to the record date for determining holders of Common Stock entitled to receive securities and/or other property in connection with such action. The failure to give notice required by this Section 4.9(b) or any defect therein shall be a breach of this Warrant but shall not affect the legality or validity of the action taken by the Company or the vote upon any such action. Unless specifically required by this Article IV, the Exercise Price, the number of shares covered by each Warrant and the number of Warrants outstanding shall not be subject to adjustment as a result of the Company being required to give notice pursuant to this Section 4.9(b). 4.10. No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of the Charter or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article IV and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. 4.11. Application. Except as otherwise provide herein, all sections of this Article IV are intended to operate independently of one another. If an event occurs that requires the application of more than one section, all applicable sections shall be given independent effect. ARTICLE V. REGISTRATION RIGHTS 5.1. Registration on Form S-3. 5.1.1. Filing of Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to secure effectiveness of, as soon as practicable, and shall file no later than 10 days after the commencement of the Exercise Period, a registration statement in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") with the Commission under the Securities Act to register the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant and the transfer of such Warrant Shares (the Warrant Shares constituting the "Registrable Securities"); provided however, that in the event the Company fails to file reports in a timely manner or otherwise fails (due to an action or inaction of the Company) to be eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-1. 5.1.2. Registrable Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses (as defined below) in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder, and each Holder shall pay all Selling Expenses (as defined below) and other expenses that are not Registration Expenses relating to the Registrable Securities resold by such Holder. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses, except for Selling Expenses, incurred by the Company in complying with the registration provisions herein described, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration. "Selling Expenses" shall mean all selling commissions, underwriting fees and stock transfer taxes applicable to the Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for any Holder. 13 5.1.3. Additional Company Obligations. In the case of any registration effected by the Company pursuant to these registration provisions, the Company will use its best efforts to: keep such registration effective until such date as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold or could immediately be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated by the Commission; (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the Registrable Securities; (iii) furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Holder from time to time may reasonably request; (iv) cause all such Registrable Securities registered as described herein to be listed on each securities exchange and quoted on each quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted; (v) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities; (vi) use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its securityholders, to the extent required, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months, beginning with the first month after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and (vii) file the documents required of the Company and otherwise use its best efforts to maintain requisite blue sky clearance in (A) all jurisdictions in which any of the Warrant Shares are originally sold and (B) all other states specified in writing by a Holder as may reasonably be required to sell such Holder's Warrant Shares, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business, subject itself to taxation, or consent to service of process in any state in which it is not now so qualified or subject to taxation or has not so consented. 5.1.4. Conditions and Limitations (a) Cooperation by Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Article V in respect of the Registrable Securities that the Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Registrable Securities and the intended method of disposition thereof and such other information as the Company shall reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with the action taken by the Company. (b) Notification Prior to Sale. If any Holder shall propose to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, it shall notify the Company of its intent to do so at least three full business days prior to such sale, and the provision of such notice to the Company shall be deemed to establish an agreement by such Holder to comply with the registration provisions contained herein. Such notice shall be deemed to constitute a representation that any information previously supplied by such Holder is accurate as of the date of such notice. At any time within such three business day period, the Company may refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement; provided, however, that in order to exercise this right, the Company must deliver a certificate in writing to the Holder to the effect that a delay in such sale is necessary because, in the good faith judgment of the Company, a sale pursuant to the Registration Statement would require the public disclosure of information that would not otherwise be required to be disclosed (which disclosure would be likely, in the good faith judgment of the Company, to be materially harmful to the Company) or could in other respects constitute a violation of the federal securities laws. In such an event, the Company shall use its best efforts to amend the Registration Statement to the extent required to comply with Section 5.1.4 and to take all other actions necessary to allow such sale under the federal securities laws, and shall notify the Holders promptly after it has determined that such circumstances no longer exist. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not under any circumstances be entitled to refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities more than twice in any twelve-month period, and any individual period during which the Company refuses to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities shall not exceed sixty days. 14 The Company will promptly notify each holder of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event or existence of any fact as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made, and, as promptly as is practicable, prepare and furnish to such holder a reasonable number of copies of any required supplement to or amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. By acquisition of Registrable Securities, each holder of such Registrable Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in the preceding sentence, such holder will promptly discontinue such holder's disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of any required supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by this Section. If so directed by the Company, each holder of Registrable Securities will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, in such holder's possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. Subject to the foregoing, when a Holder is entitled to sell and gives notice of its intent to sell pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company shall furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. 5.2. Indemnification and Contribution. 5.2.1. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which such Holder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any claim by a third party asserting any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or omission of a material fact therefrom necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, on the effective date thereof, or arise out of any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, and the Company will, as incurred, reimburse such Holder for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damages or liability arises out of, or is based upon (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered to the Holder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder. 5.2.2. Indemnification by Holder. Each Holder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which the Company may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon any claim by a third party asserting (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable in any such case for any untrue statement included in any 15 prospectus which statement has been corrected, in writing, by such Holder and delivered to the Company at least three business days before the sale from which such loss occurred or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered by the Holder to the purchaser prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder, and each Holder, severally and not jointly, will, as incurred, reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim. 5.2.3. Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 5.2, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person and the indemnifying person shall have been notified thereof, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of the indemnifying person's election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the indemnified person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that in the case of the immediately preceding proviso the indemnifying person shall not be responsible for the legal expenses of more than one counsel for all indemnified persons. 5.2.4. Contribution in Lieu of Indemnity. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.2 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 5.2.1 or 5.2.2 above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefit and relative fault of the respective parties as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or a Holder on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.2.4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 5.2.4. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 5.2.4 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.2.4, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net amount received by the Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities to which such loss relates. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations in this Section 5.2.4 to contribute are several in proportion to their respective sales of Registrable Securities to which such loss relates and not joint. 5.2.5. Controlling Persons Indemnified. The obligations of the Company and the Holders under this Section 5.2 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the respective 16 Holders may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls or may be deemed to control the Company or any Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act including, without limitation, the directors and officers of the Company and the Holder, as the case may be. 5.3. Transfer Of Registration Rights. The right to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement described herein will automatically be assigned to each transferee of the Warrant or Warrant Shares permitted under the terms of this Warrant. In the event that it is necessary, in order to permit a Holder to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, to amend the Registration Statement to name such Holder, such Holder shall upon written notice to the Company, be entitled to have the Company make such amendment as soon as reasonably practicable. ARTICLE VI. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF COMPANY 6.1. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants that as of the date hereof: (a) Legal Status; Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Rhode Island and is qualified or licensed to do business in all other countries, states and provinces in which the laws thereof require the Company to qualify and/or be licensed, except where failure to qualify or be licensed would not have a material adverse effect on the business or assets of the Company taken as a whole; (b) Capitalization. The Company's authorized capital stock consists of: 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of which 130,792,386 shares are issued and outstanding; (c) Options.

This Warrant has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity; (g) No Conflict. The execution, delivery and/or performance by the Company of this Warrant shall not, by the lapse of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, constitute a violation of any applicable law or a breach of any provision contained in the Company's Charter or Bylaws or contained in any agreement, instrument or document to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound; (h) Consents. Except as contemplated by Article V and Section 6.2(b), no consent, approval, authorization or other order of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental body is required for the valid issuance of the Warrant or for the performance of any of the Company's obligations hereunder, except in connection with listing of the Warrant Shares on the American 17 Stock Exchange, which listing will be effected in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange; (i) Offering.

Neither the Company nor any agent acting on its behalf will sell or offer for sale or dispose of, or attempt or offer to dispose of, this Warrant or any part thereof to, or solicit any offers to buy any warrant of like tenor from, or otherwise approach or negotiate in respect thereof, with, any Person or Persons so as thereby to bring the issuance of this Warrant within the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act; (j) Registration. Assuming the accuracy of the Holder's representations made herein, it is not necessary in connection with the issuance and sale of this Warrant to the Holder pursuant to this Agreement to Register this Warrant under the Securities Act; and 6.2. Covenants. The Company covenants that: (a) Authorized Shares. The Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance or transfer upon exercise of the rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant (for purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all other Options and warrants to acquire Common Stock and upon conversion of all instruments convertible into Common Stock shall be deemed issued and outstanding); (b) Proper Issuance.

Payment of such amount shall be made in cash or by check payable to the order of the Holder at the time of delivery of any certificate or certificates arising upon such exercise or conversion. 2.4.

The Holder shall not sell, assign or otherwise transfer, pledge or hypothecate all or part of this Warrant prior to a Change in Control without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld in the Company's sole discretion; 7 provided that (x) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in its entirety to an entity owned or controlled by the Holder (but only for so long as it remains so owned or controlled and such entity agrees (i) to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant pursuant to an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company ("Assumption Agreement") and (ii) to transfer this Warrant back to the Holder if it ceases to be owned or controlled by the Holder), (y) any such sale, assignment or other transfer by the Holder of the Warrant in connection with (i) the merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Holder, (ii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's assets or business in one or more related transactions or (iii) the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Holder's capital stock, provided that any transferee described in this clause (y) executes an Assumption Agreement, (z) a bona fide pledge or hypothecation (so long as any sale, assignment or other transfer in connection with any attempted foreclosure of such a pledge or hypothecation would require such consent from the Company), and (zz) any transfer to a Person directly or indirectly controlling the Holder, provided such Person executes an Assumption Agreement, may be effected without any such consent. (d) Disposition of Warrant Shares. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant prior to Registration of such shares, the Shareholder agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of the Shareholder's counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without Registration under the Securities Act or qualification under any applicable state securities laws of such Warrant Shares and indicating whether or not under the Securities Act certificates for such Warrant Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of, require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, such opinion to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Promptly upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion, if so requested, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify the Shareholder that it may sell or otherwise dispose of such Warrant Shares all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this subsection (d) that the opinion of counsel for the Shareholder is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Shareholder promptly after such determination has been made and shall specify the legal analysis supporting any such conclusion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Warrant Shares may be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such information as the Company may reasonably request to provide reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate representing the Warrant Shares thus transferred in accordance with this subsection (d) (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the aforesaid reasonably satisfactory opinion of counsel for the Shareholder such legend is not necessary in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. (e) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under this Section 3.2 upon the transferability of the Warrant (other than those in Section 3.2(c)) and the shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall cease when (i) a registration statement covering the applicable securities becomes effective under the Securities Act, (ii) the Company is presented with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such restrictions are no longer required in order to insure compliance with the Securities Act or with a Commission "no-action" letter stating that future transfers of such securities by the transferor or the contemplated transferee would be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, or (iii) such securities may be transferred in accordance with Rule 144(k). Subject to Section 3.2(c), if applicable, when such restrictions terminate, the Company shall, or shall instruct its transfer agent to, promptly, and without expense to the Shareholder issue new securities in the name of the Shareholder not bearing the legends required under subsection (b) of this Section 3.2. 8 3.3. Exchange. At the Holder's option, this Warrant may be exchanged for other Warrants representing the right to purchase a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock upon surrender of this Warrant at the Principal Executive Office. Whenever this Warrant is so surrendered to the Company at the Principal Executive Office for exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver the Warrants which the Holder is entitled to receive. All Warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Warrants shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Warrants surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. No service charge shall be made for any exchange of this Warrant. 3.4. Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (i) in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company in form and amount or (ii) in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation at the Principal Executive Office, the Company, at its expense, shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant. ARTICLE IV. ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS 4.1. Reorganization, Reclassification or Recapitalization of the Company. In case of (1) a capital reorganization, reclassification or recapitalization of the Company's capital stock (other than in the cases referred to in Section 4.2 hereof), (2) the Company's consolidation or merger with or into another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company's capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted, by virtue of the merger, into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, or (3) the sale or transfer of the Company's property as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, then, as part of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof (in lieu of or in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore deliverable, as appropriate), and without payment of any additional consideration, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise have been deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof at the time of such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. This Section 4.1 shall apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. 4.2. Reclassifications. If the Company changes any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted. 4.3. Splits and Combinations. If the Company at any time subdivides any of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price under this Section 4.3, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall equal the number of shares determined by dividing (i) the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchase of all 9 shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by (ii) the Exercise Price per share in effect immediately after such adjustment. 4.4. Dividends and Distributions. If the Company declares a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, as part of such dividend or distribution, lawful provision shall be made so that there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon and without payment of any additional consideration, the amount of the dividend or other distribution to which the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock obtained upon exercise hereof would have been entitled to receive had the exercise occurred as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. 4.5. Liquidation; Dissolution. If the Company shall dissolve, liquidate or wind up its affairs, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise this Warrant effective as of the date of such dissolution, liquidation or winding up. If any such dissolution, liquidation or winding up results in any cash distribution to the Holder in excess of the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised, then the Holder may, at its option, exercise this Warrant without making payment of such aggregate Exercise Price and, in such case, the Company shall, upon distribution to the Holder, consider such aggregate Exercise Price to have been paid in full, and in making such settlement to the Holder, shall deduct an amount equal to such aggregate Exercise Price from the amount payable to the Holder. 4.6. Antidilution Provisions. 4.6.1. Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4.6 the following definitions shall apply: "Common Stock Equivalents" shall mean Convertible Securities and rights entitling the holder thereof to receive directly, or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock without the payment of any consideration by such holder for such additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. "Common Stock Outstanding" shall mean the aggregate of all Common Stock outstanding and all Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding Convertible Securities and exercise of all Options other than Employee Securities issued after October 30, 1998, unless such Employee Securities arise from exercise of Options granted prior to October 30, 1998. "Current Exercise Price" shall mean the Exercise Price immediately before the occurrence of any event, which, pursuant to Section 4.6, causes an adjustment to the Exercise Price. 4.6.2. Adjustments to Exercise Price. The Exercise Price in effect from time to time shall be subject to adjustment in certain cases as follows: 4.6.2.1. Issuance of Securities. Subject to Section 4.6.3, in case the Company shall at any time after October 30, 1998 issue or sell any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalent without consideration, or for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance or sale, the Current Exercise Price shall simultaneously with such issuance or sale be adjusted to an Exercise Price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Current Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding on such date of sale or issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received for the issuance or sale of such additional shares would purchase at the Fair Market Value and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately after the issuance or sale. 10 For the purposes of this subsection 4.6.2.1, the following provisions shall also be applicable: 4.6.2.1.1. Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance or sale of additional Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received by this corporation for such shares (or, if such shares are offered by the corporation for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such shares are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price), without deducting therefrom any compensation or discount paid or allowed to underwriters or dealers or others performing similar services or for any expenses incurred in connection therewith. 4.6.2.1.2. Non-Cash Consideration. In case of the issuance (otherwise than upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities) or sale of additional Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities for a consideration other than cash or a consideration, a part of which shall be other than cash, the fair value of such consideration as determined by the board of directors of the Company in the good faith exercise of its business judgment, irrespective of the accounting treatment thereof, shall be deemed to be the value, for purposes of this Section 4.6.2, of the consideration other than cash received by the Company for such securities. 4.6.2.1.3. Options and Convertible Securities. In case the Company shall in any manner issue or grant any Options or any Convertible Securities, the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable shall (as of the date of issue or grant of such Options or, in the case of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options, as of the date of such issue or sale) be deemed to be issued and to be outstanding for the purpose of this Section 4.6.2. and to have been issued for the sum of the amount (if any) paid for such Options or Convertible Securities and the minimum amount (if any) payable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable; provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 4.6.2.1.4, no adjustment or further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of (a) any such Common Stock or Convertible Securities or upon the conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities or the exercise of such Options or (b) any Common Stock issued or sold pursuant to conversion of any Convertible Securities or exercise of any Options to the extent outstanding on October 30, 1998. 4.6.2.1.4. Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If the exercise price provided for in any Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock shall change at any time (other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Current Exercise Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed exercise price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. If the exercise price provided for in any such Option referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the additional consideration (if any) payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities referred to in subsection 4.6.2.1.3 are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, shall be reduced at any time under or by reason of provisions with respect thereto designed to protect against dilution and such reduction would trigger an adjustment under Subsection 4.6.2.1, then in case of the delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Security, the Current Exercise Price then in effect hereunder shall, upon issuance of such shares of Common Stock, be adjusted to such amount as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security never been issued and had adjustments been 11 made only upon the issuance of the shares of Common Stock actually delivered and for the consideration actually received for such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Stock. 4.6.2.1.5. Termination of Option or Conversion Rights. In the event of the termination or expiration of any right to purchase Common Stock under any Option or of any right to convert or exchange Convertible Securities, the Current Exercise Price shall, upon such termination, be changed to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible Security, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never been issued, and the shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder shall no longer be deemed to be Common Stock Outstanding. 4.6.3. Employee Securities. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IV to the contrary, the Exercise Price shall not be adjusted by virtue of the issuance or sale of Employee Securities and no Employee Securities shall be included in any manner in the computation from time to time of the Exercise Price under subsection 4.6.2 or in Common Stock Outstanding for purposes of such computation except that Employee Securities constituting Common Stock arising from exercise of Options granted prior to October 30, 1998 shall be included in Common Stock Outstanding. 4.7. Maximum Exercise Price. At no time shall the Exercise Price exceed the amount set forth in the Preamble to this Warrant, unless the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof. 4.8. Other Dilutive Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Article IV are not strictly applicable but the failure to make any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles hereof, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants of recognized national standing (which may be the Company's regular auditors) which shall give their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in this Article IV, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant; provided, that no adjustments shall be made in connection with the issuance of Common Stock upon exercise, conversion or exchange of Options or Convertible Securities to the extent that adjustment has previously been made upon issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities and each lowering of the effective purchase price of Common Stock pursuant to such Option or Convertible Securities. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder and shall make the adjustments described therein. 4.9. Certificates and Notices. (a) Adjustment Certificates. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, a certificate, signed by (i) the Company's President or Chief Financial Officer, or (ii) any independent firm of certified public accountants of recognized national standing the Company selects at its own expense, setting forth in reasonable detail the events requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, shall be mailed to the Holder and shall specify the adjusted Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant after giving effect to the adjustment. (b) Extraordinary Corporate Events. If the Company, after the date hereof, proposes to effect (i) any transaction described in Sections 4.1 or 4.2 hereof, or (ii) a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company described in Section 4.5 hereof or (iii) any payment of a dividend or distribution with respect to the Common Stock (other than a cash dividend or distribution), then, in each such case, the Company shall mail to the Holder a notice describing such proposed action and specifying the date on which the Company's books shall close, or a record shall be taken, for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to participate in such action, or the date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall take place or commence, as the case may be, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of 12 record shall be entitled to receive securities and/or other property deliverable upon such action, if any such date is to be fixed. Such notice shall be mailed to the Holder at least twenty days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (i) above at least ten days prior to the record date for such action in the case of any action described in clause (iii) above, and in the case of any action described in clause (ii) above, at least twenty days prior to the date on which the action described is to take place and at least twenty days prior to the record date for determining holders of Common Stock entitled to receive securities and/or other property in connection with such action. The failure to give notice required by this Section 4.9(b) or any defect therein shall be a breach of this Warrant but shall not affect the legality or validity of the action taken by the Company or the vote upon any such action. Unless specifically required by this Article IV, the Exercise Price, the number of shares covered by each Warrant and the number of Warrants outstanding shall not be subject to adjustment as a result of the Company being required to give notice pursuant to this Section 4.9(b). 4.10. No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of the Charter or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article IV and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. 4.11. Application. Except as otherwise provide herein, all sections of this Article IV are intended to operate independently of one another. If an event occurs that requires the application of more than one section, all applicable sections shall be given independent effect. ARTICLE V. REGISTRATION RIGHTS 5.1. Registration on Form S-3. 5.1.1. Filing of Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to secure effectiveness of, as soon as practicable, and shall file no later than 10 days after the commencement of the Exercise Period, a registration statement in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") with the Commission under the Securities Act to register the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant and the transfer of such Warrant Shares (the Warrant Shares constituting the "Registrable Securities"); provided however, that in the event the Company fails to file reports in a timely manner or otherwise fails (due to an action or inaction of the Company) to be eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-1. 5.1.2. Registrable Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses (as defined below) in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder, and each Holder shall pay all Selling Expenses (as defined below) and other expenses that are not Registration Expenses relating to the Registrable Securities resold by such Holder. "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses, except for Selling Expenses, incurred by the Company in complying with the registration provisions herein described, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration. "Selling Expenses" shall mean all selling commissions, underwriting fees and stock transfer taxes applicable to the Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for any Holder. 5.1.3. Additional Company Obligations. In the case of any registration effected by the Company pursuant to these registration provisions, the Company will use its best efforts to: keep such registration effective until such date as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold or could immediately be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated by the Commission; (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection 13 with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the Registrable Securities; (iii) furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Holder from time to time may reasonably request; (iv) cause all such Registrable Securities registered as described herein to be listed on each securities exchange and quoted on each quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted; (v) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities; (vi) use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its securityholders, to the extent required, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months, beginning with the first month after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and (vii) file the documents required of the Company and otherwise use its best efforts to maintain requisite blue sky clearance in (A) all jurisdictions in which any of the Warrant Shares are originally sold and (B) all other states specified in writing by a Holder as may reasonably be required to sell such Holder's Warrant Shares, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business, subject itself to taxation, or consent to service of process in any state in which it is not now so qualified or subject to taxation or has not so consented. 5.1.4. Conditions and Limitations (a) Cooperation by Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Article V in respect of the Registrable Securities that the Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Registrable Securities and the intended method of disposition thereof and such other information as the Company shall reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with the action taken by the Company. (b) Notification Prior to Sale. If any Holder shall propose to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, it shall notify the Company of its intent to do so at least three full business days prior to such sale, and the provision of such notice to the Company shall be deemed to establish an agreement by such Holder to comply with the registration provisions contained herein. Such notice shall be deemed to constitute a representation that any information previously supplied by such Holder is accurate as of the date of such notice. At any time within such three business day period, the Company may refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement; provided, however, that in order to exercise this right, the Company must deliver a certificate in writing to the Holder to the effect that a delay in such sale is necessary because, in the good faith judgment of the Company, a sale pursuant to the Registration Statement would require the public disclosure of information that would not otherwise be required to be disclosed (which disclosure would be likely, in the good faith judgment of the Company, to be materially harmful to the Company) or could in other respects constitute a violation of the federal securities laws. In such an event, the Company shall use its best efforts to amend the Registration Statement to the extent required to comply with Section 5.1.4 and to take all other actions necessary to allow such sale under the federal securities laws, and shall notify the Holders promptly after it has determined that such circumstances no longer exist. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not under any circumstances be entitled to refuse to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities more than twice in any twelve-month period, and any individual period during which the Company refuses to permit the Holder to resell any Registrable Securities shall not exceed sixty days. The Company will promptly notify each holder of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event or existence of any fact as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not 14 misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made, and, as promptly as is practicable, prepare and furnish to such holder a reasonable number of copies of any required supplement to or amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. By acquisition of Registrable Securities, each holder of such Registrable Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in the preceding sentence, such holder will promptly discontinue such holder's disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of any required supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by this Section. If so directed by the Company, each holder of Registrable Securities will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, in such holder's possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. Subject to the foregoing, when a Holder is entitled to sell and gives notice of its intent to sell pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company shall furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made. 5.2. Indemnification and Contribution. 5.2.1. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which such Holder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any claim by a third party asserting any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or omission of a material fact therefrom necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, on the effective date thereof, or arise out of any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, and the Company will, as incurred, reimburse such Holder for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damages or liability arises out of, or is based upon (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered to the Holder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder. 5.2.2. Indemnification by Holder. Each Holder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which the Company may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon any claim by a third party asserting (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable in any such case for any untrue statement included in any prospectus which statement has been corrected, in writing, by such Holder and delivered to the Company at least three business days before the sale from which such loss occurred or (ii) any untrue statement in any prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent prospectus that was delivered by the Holder to the purchaser prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Holder, and each Holder, severally and not jointly, will, as 15 incurred, reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim. 5.2.3. Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 5.2, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person and the indemnifying person shall have been notified thereof, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of the indemnifying person's election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the indemnified person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that in the case of the immediately preceding proviso the indemnifying person shall not be responsible for the legal expenses of more than one counsel for all indemnified persons. 5.2.4. Contribution in Lieu of Indemnity. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.2 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 5.2.1 or 5.2.2 above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefit and relative fault of the respective parties as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or a Holder on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.2.4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 5.2.4.

EXHIBIT 10(rr) EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), made as of the 5th day of January, 1999 is entered into by Hasbro, Inc., a corporation with its principal place of business at Pawtucket, Rhode Island (the "Company"), and Herbert M. Baum (the "Employee"). WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ the Employee as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and the Employee desires to be employed by the Company as President and Chief Operating Officer; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties agree as follows: 1. Term of Employment ------------------ The Company hereby agrees to employ the Employee, and the Employee hereby accepts employment with the Company, upon the terms set forth in this Agreement, for the period commencing on January 5, 1999 (the "Commencement Date") and ending on January 5, 2002, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 or extended as hereinafter provided in this Section 1 (such period, as it may be extended or terminated, the "Employment Period"). The Employment Period may be extended not later than January 5, 2002 for an additional one year period from the then current expiration date of the Employment Period provided the Employee and the Company mutually agree in writing to extend the Employment Period. 2. Title; Capacity --------------- The Company will employ the Employee, and the Employee agrees to work for the Company, as its President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and in such other senior executive positions with the Company and with domestic and foreign subsidiaries of the Company as the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company may reasonably determine from time to time. The Employee shall be based at the Company's headquarters in Pawtucket, Rhode Island and shall undertake such domestic and foreign business travel as shall be reasonably required to fulfill his duties. The Employee shall report directly to the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Employee shall have authorities, duties and responsibilities commensurate with his position of President and Chief Operating Officer (including but not limited to, responsibility for all operating functions and units of the Company with all of said functions and units reporting directly or, with his consent, indirectly to him) and shall have such other authorities, duties and responsibilities commensurate with his position as the Board shall from time to time reasonably assign to him. The Employee shall devote substantially his full business time in the performance of the foregoing services, except that he may serve on the boards of directors of other businesses, trade associations and charitable organizations, engage in charitable activities and community affairs and manage his personal investments and affairs as long as these activities present no conflict of interest and do not materially interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder. The Employee agrees to abide in all material respects with the policies of the Company applicable to senior executives, officers and members of the Board and any changes therein which may be adopted from time to time by the Company with regard to conflicts of interest. 3. Member of the Board ------------------- During the Employment Period, the Company agrees that it shall recommend to the Board the election of the Employee as a Director of the Company on the Commencement Date or as soon as practical thereafter. Upon the expiration of his term as a Director during the Employment Period, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to cause him to be re-nominated for election and to recommend his election. 4. Compensation and Benefits ------------------------- 4.1 Salary ------ During the Employment Period, the Company shall pay the Employee, in weekly installments one week in arrears, an annual base salary of not less than $750,000 (the "Base Salary"). Such Base Salary shall be considered for upward adjustment annually in accordance with the Company's salary increase guidelines based upon the Employee's achievement of individual performance goals but subject to recommendation by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and approval by the Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee"). Once increased, Base Salary shall not be reduced and shall thereafter be the "Base Salary" hereunder. 4.2 Bonus ----- During the Employment Period, the Employee shall be eligible to participate in the Company's management incentive bonus arrangement with a target bonus of not less than 45% of Base Salary. The Employee's actual bonus may be greater or less than his target bonus for such year depending upon the Company's and the Employee's actual performance during the applicable bonus year. In the event Employee's employment is terminated prior to the completion of a bonus year due to (I) his death or Disability, (ii) a termination by the Employee for "Good Reason," or (iii) a termination by the Company without "Cause," the Company will pay the Employee a pro rata bonus for such year equal to at least the bonus for such year he would have received based on assuming his individual performance was the same as that of the prior year and the actual Company performance for such year multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during such bonus year that the Employee is employed by the Company, and the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365). If such pro rata bonus is for 1999, the entire bonus shall be based on the actual Company performance for such year. 4.3 Stock Options ------------- (a) Subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board the Company shall grant to the Employee options (the "Options") to purchase 175,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Shares") on the Commencement Date, or as soon thereafter as practical, at the then-current Fair Market Value of the Company Shares as of the date of the grant under and according to the terms of the Company's Stock Incentive Performance Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement. During the Employment Period, Options to purchase 58,333 shares shall vest on each of the first two anniversaries of the Commencement Date and the remaining Options to purchase 58,334 shares shall vest on January 5, 2002, the last day of the initial three year Employment Period. (b) Subsequent grants of regular stock options may be made subject to the Company's standard practice and policy in making such grants, except that the Employee will not have any right to participate in the Company's premium priced stock option program. Subsequent stock option grants will be subject to not less favorable vesting and exercise provisions than those set forth in this Section 4.3. (c) Unless the termination of Employee's employment is for Cause, the Employee will have three (3) years from the date on which his employment terminates or, if earlier, until the expiration of stated term of the Options, to exercise all unexercised vested Options. (d) If the Employee's employment with the Company terminates upon or after the expiration of the initial three year Employment Period for any reason whatsoever other than Cause, provided the Employee executes a non-compete agreement in the form of Exhibit A hereto, the Options shall become fully vested on the date of termination. In the event the prior sentence does not apply and the Employee is terminated by the Company without Cause or the Employee terminates his employment with or without Good Reason either during or after the initial three year Employment Period, the Options shall continue to vest during the period which the Employee is receiving severance payment from the Company. (e) In the event of the Employee's termination of employment due to the Employee's death or Disability, vesting of all unvested options will be fully accelerated as of the date of death or Disability. 4.4 Retirement Benefits ------------------- (a) The Employee shall be eligible to participate in the Hasbro, Inc. Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan") and the Hasbro, Inc. Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan (the "Supplemental Plan") on the same basis as other senior executives of the Company. (b) In addition, after the Employee's employment terminates for any reason, the Employee shall receive an annuity payable in monthly installments, the first such installment being paid on the first day of the month following the month in which the employee attains age 65 or his employment terminates, whichever occurs later (subject to earlier commencement, as referred to below), and the last such installment being paid on the first day of the month in which the Employee dies (subject to the right to elect an actuarially equivalent form), in which the annual amount is 3.3% of the Employee's Average Annual Cash Compensation multiplied by the number of full years and partial years (with proration to include full months employed during any partial years) the Employee had been employed by the Company at termination of employment. The amount payable under the preceding sentence shall be reduced by the sum of the benefits payable to the Employee in the form of a life annuity commencing at age 65 (or such later date), under (a) the Pension Plan, and (b)the Supplemental Plan. For purposes of this supplemental retirement benefit, the Employee's Average Annual Cash Compensation shall be one-third of the total Base Salary and management incentive bonuses (exclusive of any severance pay (but not Accrued Obligations) or other additional compensation) received by the Employee in the three highest consecutive years during the Employees' period of employment. For purposes of the calculation in the previous sentence, the Annual Cash Compensation taken into account for any single year,, shall not exceed $909,091. If the Employee had been employed by the Company for fewer than three years, the Employee's Average Annual Cash Compensation shall be the annualized average of the Employee's total Base Salary and management incentive bonuses during the period of employment (including any pro-rata bonus amounts due for the year of termination) (with the management incentive bonus being deemed the 1999 target bonus until the 1999 management incentive bonus is paid). At the Employee's option, the benefit described above shall be payable in any actuarially equivalent annuity form of benefit provided under the Pension Plan or an actuarially equivalent lump sum, determined using the actuarial conversion factors used for the Pension Plan. If the benefit commences prior to age 65, it shall be reduced by the early retirement reduction factor set forth in the Pension Plan. Any lump sum payment shall be made during the first two calendar weeks of January in the year following termination of employment. The benefits provided under this Section 4.4 shall be unfunded and shall be paid from the general assets of the Company. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement referred to in Section 8 below), these benefits shall be paid from a fully funded corporate rabbi trust. The Employee shall have a right to the benefit hereunder and any rabbi trust no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. The benefits are not assignable by the Employee prior to receipt. 4.5 Financial Planning ------------------ During the Employment Period, the Company shall provide the Employee, at the Company's expense, tax and financial counseling from a provider of such services of the Employee's own choosing up to Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) per year.

The Employee shall be entitled to four weeks of paid vacation time during each calendar year (prorated for partial years) during the Employment Period. 4.9 Reimbursement of Expenses ------------------------- The Company shall reimburse the Employee for reasonable travel, entertainment and other expenses incurred or paid by him in connection with, or related to, the performance of his duties, responsibilities or services under this Agreement, upon presentation by the Employee of documentation, expense statements, vouchers and/or such other supporting information as the Company may request, provided, however, that the amount available for travel, entertainment and other expenses may be fixed in writing in advance by the Board at a level commensurate with his position. 4.10 Deferred Compensation --------------------- The Employee shall be entitled to participate in the Company's Non- Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan in accordance with the terms of such Plan, provided that any termination of Executive's employment (other than for death or Disability) shall be deemed a "retirement" under such plan. 4.11 401(k) and Profit Sharing Benefits ---------------------------------- The Employee shall be entitled to participate in the Company's Retirement Savings Plan subject to and in accordance with the terms of such plan. 4.12 Annual Physical ---------------- The Company shall reimburse the Employee for the normal costs of an annual physical examination, including laboratory costs, by a physician of his own choosing in each calendar year. 4.13 Indemnification --------------- (a) Effective upon his election as a Director, the Company and the Employee shall enter into the Company's standard Directors' Indemnification Agreement, in the form filed as an Exhibit to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Indemnification Agreement").

MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW - - ------------------- Summary - - ------- A percentage analysis of results of operations follows: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Net revenues 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales 41.3 42.6 44.3 ----- ----- ----- Gross profit 58.7 57.4 55.7 Amortization 2.2 1.7 1.3 Royalties, research and development 12.9 12.1 10.6 Advertising 13.3 12.9 13.9 Selling, distribution and administration 19.8 19.4 18.8 Acquired in-process research and development and restructuring charge .6 3.9 - Interest expense 1.1 .9 1.1 Other (income) expense, net (.4) .1 (.2) ----- ----- ----- Earnings before income taxes 9.2 6.4 10.2 Income taxes 2.9 2.2 3.5 ----- ----- ----- Net earnings 6.3% 4.2% 6.7% ===== ===== ===== (Thousands of Dollars Except Share Data) Results of Operations - - --------------------- Net revenues for 1998 were $3,304,454 compared to $3,188,559 and $3,002,370 for 1997 and 1996, respectively. This approximate 4% increase in revenues over 1997 levels was net of an approximate $26,000 unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation rates. Revenue growth during the year was led by products from the Tiger line, including Furby, the year's most sought-after toy, the Hasbro Interactive line of CD-ROM interactive games, hand-held electronic games marketed under the Milton Bradley and Parker Brothers brands, and water toys from Larami. Within the Company's more traditional product lines, revenues from boys' toys, creative play and games and puzzles were all lower, reflecting both the lack of a major motion picture release related to the Company's products and the changes in inventory management policies at Toys `R Us. The preschool line, reflecting the strength of the Teletubbies products, and girls' lines achieved moderate revenue growth. The Company's gross profit margin increased to 58.7% from 57.4% in 1997, which had been negatively impacted by 0.5% due to the Company's global integration and profit enhancement program, and 55.7% in 1996. The improvement from the adjusted 1997 margin of 57.9% is attributable to a lower cost structure resulting from the removal of excess capacity, the increased level of sales of interactive products which have a higher gross margin and overall favorable material prices. This improvement in the 1998 gross margin was moderated by the unanticipated shortfall in business with Toys `R Us which resulted in lower than anticipated factory utilization. Amortization expense of $72,208, which includes amortization of both property rights and cost in excess of net assets acquired, compares with $53,767 in 1997 and $40,064 in 1996. The increases in all years were attributable to the acquisitions made during the respective years. As a result of acquisitions made during 1998, 1999 amortization expense will exceed that of 1998. Expenditures for royalties, research and development increased to $424,673 from $386,912 in 1997 and $319,494 in 1996. Included in these amounts are expenditures for research and development of $184,962 in 1998, $154,710 in 1997 and $152,487 in 1996. As percentages of net revenues, research and development was 5.6% in 1998, up from 4.9% in 1997, which had decreased from 5.1% in 1996. The 1998 increase reflects the expenditures of the Company's 1998 acquisitions as well as the continuing investment to grow Hasbro Interactive. While royalties increased in dollars during 1998, they remained constant as a percentage of net revenues. The increased percentage in 1997, when compared with 1996, was primarily attributable to the higher proportion of the Company's revenues arising from licensed products as well as the higher rates generally paid on such items. Royalty expense during 1999 is expected to increase in both amount and as a percentage of net revenues due to the expected higher percentage of the Company's products arising from licensed product carrying higher royalty rates. Advertising expenses, at 13.3% of net revenues, increased four-tenths of a point from the 1997 level of 12.9% which had decreased a full point from 13.9% in 1996. The increase in 1998 and the decrease in 1997 both reflect the mix of more non-entertainment based product in 1998, in the absence of support from a major motion picture release. During 1998, selling, distribution and administration costs increased by approximately 6% to $655,938, or 19.8% of revenues, from the $617,140, or 19.4%, in 1997 and $563,645, or 18.8%, in 1996. In addition to normal inflationary trends, both the 1998 and 1997 increases reflect the impact of the Company's acquisitions and new operations in those years. Also adversely impacting the 1998 rate was the unanticipated reduction in revenues resulting from the changes in inventory management policies at Toys `R Us. During the third quarter of 1998, the Company incurred a one-time charge to write off the $20,000 appraised value of acquired in-process research and development of MicroProse, Inc. (MicroProse), which was acquired for approximately $70,000 on September 14, 1998. Late in the fourth quarter of 1997, Hasbro announced a global integration and profit enhancement program which anticipated the redundancy of approximately 2,500 employees, principally in manufacturing, and provided for actions in three principal areas: a continued consolidation of the Company's manufacturing operations; the streamlining of marketing and sales, while exiting from certain underperforming markets and product lines; and the further leveraging of overheads. Of the $140,000 estimated costs related to these actions, $125,000 was reported as a nonrecurring charge and $15,000 was reflected in cost of sales. Of the nonrecurring amount, approximately $54,000 related to severance and people costs, $52,000 to property, plant and equipment and leases and $19,000 to product line related costs. During 1998 the employment of all employees planned for redundancy was terminated. The approximate $63,000 accrual remaining at December 27, 1998, is principally attributable to severance costs, which will be disbursed over the employee's entitlement period, and costs associated with lease terminations and the closing of certain facilities. In the balance sheet, such property, plant and equipment is included as a component of other assets. With the exception of the ultimate disposition of certain facilities closed as a result of this program, the program has been substantially completed. The Company had initially estimated its pretax cost savings from this initiative to be $40,000 in 1998 and $350,000 over the period 1998 through 2002. Because of the unanticipated shortfall in sales to Toys 'R Us during the current year and changes in product mix, factory utilization rates were not as high as initially anticipated, which resulted in below target savings during 1998. During 1998, the Company estimates that it has realized pretax savings of approximately $30,000. The positive cash flow impact from this program has and will occur largely in the form of reduced outflows for payment of costs associated with the manufacture and sourcing of products. Interest expense was $36,111 in 1998 compared to $27,486 during 1997 and $31,465 during 1996. The increase during the current year largely reflects the costs associated with funding the approximate $670,000 of acquisitions during the year as well as the Company's stock repurchase program, both partially offset by the availability of funds generated during 1997. The decrease in 1997 reflected the impact of lower interest rates and the availability of funds generated from operations during 1996. Due to additional debt incurred during 1998, interest expense in 1999 is expected to increase. Other income of $14,707 in 1998 compares with expense of $3,097 and income of $6,091 in 1997 and 1996, respectively. The change between 1998 and 1997 primarily reflects the larger benefits to Hasbro from its consolidated and unconsolidated operations in which it either is, or has, a minority partner, increased interest income and a decrease in foreign currency transactional losses. The change between 1997 and 1996 reflects an increase in foreign currency transactional losses and larger amounts attributable to Hasbro's minority partners in various units. Income tax expense as a percentage of pretax earnings in 1998 decreased to 32.0% from 34.0% and 34.9% in 1997 and 1996, respectively. The lower 1998 rate reflects the impact of the acquisitions made during the year and, in all years, the implementation of various tax strategies and the downward trend of the tax on international earnings due to the continued reorganization of the Company's global business. Liquidity and Capital Resources - - ------------------------------- The Company continued to have a strong and liquid balance sheet with cash and cash equivalents of $177,748 at December 27, 1998. Cash and cash equivalents were $361,785 and $218,971 at December 28, 1997 and December 29, 1996, respectively. Hasbro generated approximately $127,000 of net cash from its operating activities in 1998, compared with approximately $544,000 in 1997 and $280,000 in 1996. The significant change between the 1998 and 1997 amounts results from a combination of factors. During 1998, $267,231 was utilized by changes in operating assets and liabilities. With the $170,723 increase in fourth quarter revenues, most of which, under Hasbro's normal trading terms, became due after the end of the Company's fiscal year, accounts receivable increased. Inventories also increased, in part reflecting acquisitions made during the year, as did prepaid expenses and other current assets, largely reflecting higher advance royalty payments. Partially offsetting these utilizations of funds was a small increase in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities. During 1997, $273,344 was provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities. Contributing to this were reductions in accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses and other current assets and an increase in trade payables and accrued liabilities, reflecting the unpaid portion of the costs associated with the Company's global integration and profit enhancement program. During 1996, changes in operating assets and liabilities utilized approximately $50,000 with receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets and trade payables and accrued liabilities all contributing to this utilization. Receivable growth reflected the $83,000 increase in fourth quarter sales, partially offset by a non- recourse sale of certain receivables. The utilization of funds through prepaid expenses and other current assets and accounts payable and accrued liabilities was largely attributable to timing differences on certain payments. Partially offsetting these utilizations was approximately $43,000 provided through the reduction of inventory levels in 1996. Cash flows from investing activities were a net utilization of $792,700, $269,277 and $127,286 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. During 1998, the Company expended approximately $142,000 on additions to its property, plant and equipment while during each of 1997 and 1996 it expended approximately $100,000. Of these amounts, 38% in 1998, 51% in 1997 and 57% in 1996 were for purchases of tools, dies and molds related to the Company's products. The 1998 additions also include the expenditures associated with the consolidation of its Spanish manufacturing operation within one facility. During the three years, depreciation and amortization of plant and equipment was $96,991, $112,817 and $98,201, respectively. Hasbro made three major acquisitions during 1998, having an aggregate purchase price of $669,737. On April 1, it acquired substantially all of the business and operating assets of Tiger Electronics, Inc. and certain affiliates (Tiger). On September 14, 1998, it acquired the outstanding shares of MicroProse through a cash tender offer of $6.00 for each outstanding share of MicroProse. On October 30, 1998, it acquired the outstanding shares of Galoob Toys, Inc. (Galoob) through a cash tender offer of $12.00 for each outstanding share of Galoob. During 1997, Hasbro acquired certain assets of OddzOn Products, Inc. and Cap Toys, Inc., wholly owned subsidiaries of Russ Berrie and Company, Inc., for $167,379. In 1996, the Company made several small acquisitions and investments, none of which was significant. As part of the traditional marketing strategies of the toy industry, many sales made early in the year are not due for payment until the fourth quarter or early in the first quarter of the subsequent year, thus making it necessary for the Company to borrow significant amounts pending these collections. During the year, the Company borrowed through the issuance of commercial paper and short-term lines of credit to fund its seasonal working capital requirements in excess of funds available from operations and the issuance of long-term debt. During 1999, the Company expects to fund these needs in a similar manner and believes that the funds available to it are adequate to meet its needs. At February 28, 1999, the Company's unused committed and uncommitted lines of credit, including revolving credit agreements for $350,000 (long-term) and $150,000 (short-term), were in excess of $1,000,000. During 1998, net financing activities provided approximately $490,000, principally through the issuance of $100,000 of 5.60% notes due November 1, 2005, $150,000 of 6.15% notes due July 15, 2008 and $150,000 of 6.60% debentures due July 15, 2028. In 1997 and 1996, net financing activities utilized approximately $125,000 and $95,000, respectively, of Hasbro's funds. During the year, the Company also invested approximately $180,000 to repurchase its common stock in the open market, which compares with approximately $135,000 and $84,000 repurchased in 1997 and 1996, respectively. During October 1997, the Company called its 6% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 1998 for redemption. Substantially all of these notes were converted into approximately 11.4 million shares (adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock split discussed below) of Hasbro common stock. On December 9, 1997, the Board of Directors canceled all prior share repurchase authorizations and authorized the purchase of up to an additional $500,000 of the Company's common stock. At December 27, 1998, $309,540 remained under this authorization. The Company anticipates that it will continue to repurchase its shares in the future, when it deems conditions to be favorable, and will fund such purchases from working capital or available lines of credit. The shares acquired under these programs are being used for corporate purposes including issuance upon the exercise of stock options. Financial Risk Management - - ------------------------- The Company is exposed to market risks attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates primarily as a result of sourcing products in five currencies while marketing those products in more than thirty currencies. Results of operations will be affected primarily by changes in the value of the U.S. dollar, Hong Kong dollar, British pound, French franc, Mexican peso, Irish punt and Spanish peseta versus other currencies, principally in Europe and the United States. To manage this exposure, as of December 27, 1998, Hasbro has hedged a considerable portion of its estimated 1999 foreign currency transactions through the purchase of forward foreign exchange contracts. The Company estimates that a hypothetical immediate 10% unfavorable movement in the currencies involved could result in an approximate $5.7 million decrease in the fair value of these instruments. The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk with respect to its net cash and cash equivalents or short-term borrowing positions in other than the U.S. dollar. Hasbro believes, however, that the risk on this net exposure would not be material to its financial condition. In addition, the Company's revenues and costs have been and will likely continue to be affected by changes in foreign currency rates. Other than set forth above, the Company does not hedge, nor does it speculate, in foreign currencies. At December 27, 1998, the Company had fixed rate debt of $407,180. Interest rate changes affect the fair value of this fixed rate debt but do not impact earnings or cash flows. The Company estimates that a hypothetical one percentage point decrease or increase in interest rates would increase or decrease the fair value of this debt by approximately $38,000 or $33,000, respectively. The Economy and Inflation - - ------------------------- The Company continued to experience difficult economic environments in some parts of the world during 1998. The principal market for the Company's products is the retail sector where certain customers have experienced economic difficulty. The Company closely monitors the creditworthiness of its customers and adjusts credit policies and limits as it deems appropriate. The effect of inflation on the Company's operations during 1998 was not significant and the Company will continue its policy of monitoring costs and adjusting prices accordingly. Year 2000 - - --------- The Company has developed plans that address its possible exposure from the impact of the Year 2000. This project is being managed by a global cross- functional team of employees. The team meets regularly and makes periodic reports on its progress to a management steering committee, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors. The Company has completed the awareness and assessment phases of this project through the inventorying and assessment of its critical financial, operational (including imbedded and non-information technology) and information systems. The renovation phase is now well underway, as a number of non-compliant systems have been modified or replaced and plans are in place for the required modifications or replacements of other non-compliant systems. A planned global 'enterprise' system became operational at several of the Company's major units during 1998 and replaced a number of older non- compliant systems. As the global roll-out of this enterprise system continues, additional Year 2000 compliance will occur. The Company is now in the validation and implementation phases and believes that approximately 85% of its mission critical systems are currently Year 2000 compliant and virtually all will be by mid-1999. Excluding costs related to the enterprise system, the Company's out of pocket costs associated with becoming Year 2000 compliant are estimated to approximate $3,000. These costs are being expensed as incurred and approximately half of this amount has been spent to date. The Company is also well into the process of reviewing the Year 2000 readiness of its customers, vendors and service providers. This review process includes both the obtaining of confirmation from these business partners of their readiness as well as reviews of such readiness by independent third party consultants. While this review process is ongoing, nothing has come to the attention of the Company that would lead it to believe that its material customers, vendors and service providers will not be Year 2000 ready. The Company's risk management program includes disaster recovery contingency plans that will be expanded by mid-year 1999 to include Year 2000 issues and may include, for example, the maintaining and development of back-up systems and procedures, early identification and selection of alternative Year 2000 ready suppliers and service providers, revisions to credit policies and possible temporary increases in levels of inventories. Year 2000 readiness has been a senior management priority of the Company for some time and the Company believes that it is taking such reasonable and prudent steps as are necessary to mitigate its risks related to Year 2000. However, the effect, if any, on the Company's results of operations from Year 2000 if it, its customers, vendors or service providers are not fully Year 2000 compliant cannot be reasonably estimated. Notwithstanding the above, the most likely impact on the Company would be a reduced level of activity in the early part of the first quarter of the year 2000, a time at which, as a result of the seasonality of the Company's business, its activities in sales, manufacturing and sourcing, are at their low. Certain statements contained in this discussion contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual actions or results may differ materially from those expected or anticipated in the forward- looking statements. Specific factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, delays in, or increases in the anticipated cost of, the implementation of planned actions as a result of unanticipated technical malfunctions or difficulties which would arise during the validation process or otherwise; the inherent risk that assurances, warranties, and specifications provided by third parties with respect to the Company's systems, or such third party's Year 2000 readiness, may prove to be inaccurate, despite the Company's review process; the continued availability of qualified persons to carry out the remaining anticipated phases; the risk that governments may not be Year 2000 ready, which could affect the commercial sector in trade, finance and other areas, notwithstanding private sector Year 2000 readiness; whether, despite a comprehensive review, the Company has successfully identified all Year 2000 issues and risks; and the risk that proposed actions and contingency plans of the Company and third parties with respect to Year 2000 issues may conflict or themselves give rise to additional issues. Other Information - - ----------------- The Company's revenue pattern continues to show the second half of the year more significant to its overall business and within that half, the fourth quarter most prominent. The Company believes that this will continue in 1999. The Company is not aware of any material amounts of potential exposure relating to environmental matters and does not believe its compliance costs or liabilities to be material to its operating results or financial position. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133), which the Company is required to adopt not later than the beginning of fiscal 2000. SFAS 133 will require that the Company record all derivatives, such as foreign exchange contracts, on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in derivative fair values will either be recognized in earnings as an offset to the changes in the fair value of the related hedged assets, liabilities and firm commitments or, for forecasted transactions, deferred and recorded as a component of other shareholders' equity until the hedged transactions occur and are recognized in earnings. Any portion of a hedging derivative's change in fair value which does not offset the change in fair value of the underlying exposure will be immediately recognized in earnings. The Company does not believe adoption of SFAS 133 will have a material impact on either the Company's financial condition or its results of operations. On February 19, 1999, the Company announced both a three-for-two stock split and a quarterly dividend of $.06 per share, which represents a 13% increase from that previously in effect. The stock split, in the form of a 50% stock dividend, was paid on March 15, 1999 to shareholders of record on March 1, 1999, and the dividend is payable on May 17, 1999 to shareholders of record on May 3, 1999.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT The Board of Directors and Shareholders Hasbro, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hasbro, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 27, 1998 and December 28, 1997 and the related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the fiscal years in the three-year period ended December 27, 1998. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hasbro, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 27, 1998 and December 28, 1997 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the fiscal years in the three-year period ended December 27, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ KPMG LLP Providence, Rhode Island February 3, 1999 HASBRO, INC.

HASBRO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Thousands of Dollars Except Share Data) (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ------------------------------------------ Principles of Consolidation --------------------------- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hasbro, Inc. and all significant majority-owned subsidiaries (Hasbro or the Company). Investments in affiliates representing 20% to 50% ownership interest are accounted for using the equity method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Preparation of Financial Statements ----------------------------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fiscal Year ----------- Hasbro's fiscal year ends on the last Sunday in December. Each of the reported three fiscal years are fifty-two week periods. Cash and Cash Equivalents ------------------------- Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity to the Company of three months or less. Inventories ----------- Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Long-Lived Assets ----------------- The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Cost in Excess of Net Assets Acquired and Other Intangibles ----------------------------------------------------------- Approximately 53% of Hasbro's goodwill results from the 1984 acquisition of Milton Bradley Company (Milton Bradley), including its Playskool and international units, and the 1991 acquisition of Tonka Corporation (Tonka), including its Kenner, Parker Brothers and international units. An additional approximate 35% results from the Company's 1998 acquisitions of Tiger Electronics, Inc., MicroProse, Inc. and Galoob Toys, Inc. Goodwill is being amortized on the straight-line basis over lives ranging from ten to forty years. Substantially all of the other intangibles consist of the cost of acquired product rights. In establishing the value of such rights, the Company considers, but does not individually value, existing copyrights, trademarks, patents, license agreements and other product-related rights. Approximately 48% of these other intangibles relate to rights acquired in the acquisitions noted above. These rights, which were valued at their acquisition date based on the anticipated future cash flows from the underlying product lines, are being amortized over five to twenty-five years using the straight-line method. An additional approximate 15% of these other intangibles relate to rights acquired from a major motion picture studio and are being amortized over the contract life, in proportion to projected sales of the licensed products during the same period. Depreciation and Amortization ----------------------------- Depreciation and amortization are computed using accelerated and straight-line methods to amortize the cost of property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives. The principal lives, in years, used in determining depreciation rates of various assets are: land improvements 15 to 19, buildings and improvements 15 to 25 and machinery and equipment 3 to 12. Tools, dies and molds are amortized over a three year period or their useful lives, whichever is less, using an accelerated method. Research and Development ------------------------ Research and product development costs for 1998, 1997 and 1996 were $184,962, $154,710 and $152,487, respectively. Advertising ----------- Production costs of commercials and programming are charged to operations in the fiscal year during which the production is first aired. The costs of other advertising, promotion and marketing programs are charged to operations in the fiscal year incurred. Income Taxes ------------ Hasbro uses the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes have not been provided on undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries as substantially all of such earnings are indefinitely reinvested by the Company. Foreign Currency Translation ---------------------------- Foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated into dollars at current rates, and revenues, costs and expenses are translated at average rates during each reporting period. Current earnings include gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions as well as translation gains and losses resulting from the use of the U.S. dollar as the functional currency in highly inflationary economies. Other gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements are the principal component of other comprehensive earnings. Pension Plans, Postretirement and Postemployment Benefits --------------------------------------------------------- Hasbro, except for certain international subsidiaries, has pension plans covering substantially all of its full-time employees. Pension expense is based on actuarial computations of current and future benefits. The Company's policy is to fund amounts which are required by applicable regulations and which are tax deductible. The estimated amounts of future payments to be made under other retirement programs are being accrued currently over the period of active employment and are also included in pension expense. Hasbro has a contributory postretirement health and life insurance plan covering substantially all employees who retire under any of its United States defined benefit pension plans and meet certain age and length of service requirements. It also has several plans covering certain groups of employees which may provide benefits to such employees following their period of employment but prior to their retirement. Risk Management Contracts ------------------------- Hasbro does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. The Company enters into foreign currency forward and option contracts to mitigate its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. This exposure relates to future purchases of inventory not denominated in the functional currency of the unit purchasing the inventory as well as other cross-border currency requirements. Premiums on option contracts are amortized over their term and if such contract is terminated before its maturity, the unamortized premium is expensed and included in other expense, net. The carrying value of options is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Gains and losses on forward and option contracts meeting hedge accounting requirements are deferred and recognized as adjustments to the carrying value of the related transactions. In the event hedge accounting requirements are not met, gains and losses on such instruments are included currently in the statements of earnings. Earnings Per Common Share ------------------------- Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year. Diluted earnings per share is similar except that the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased by shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants for which market price exceeds exercise price, less shares which could have been purchased by the Company with the related proceeds. A reconciliation of earnings per share for the three fiscal years ended December 27, 1998 is as follows: 1998 1997 1996 --------------- --------------- --------------- Basic Diluted Basic Diluted Basic Diluted ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Net earnings $206,365 206,365 134,986 134,986 199,912 199,912 Effect of dilutive securities: 6% Convertible Notes due 1998 - - - 4,782 - 5,757 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Adjusted net earnings $206,365 206,365 134,986 139,768 199,912 205,669 ======= ======= ======= ======= ======= ======= Average shares outstanding (in thousands) 197,927 197,927 193,089 193,089 195,061 195,061 Effect of dilutive securities: 6% Convertible Notes due 1998 - - - 9,428 - 11,499 Options and warrants - 7,493 - 3,836 - 2,723 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Equivalent shares 197,927 205,420 193,089 206,353 195,061 209,283 ======= ======= ======= ======= ======= ======= Earnings per share $ 1.04 1.00 .70 .68 1.02 .98 ======= ======= ======= ======= ======= ======= (2) Acquisitions ------------ On May 2, 1997, Hasbro purchased certain assets of OddzOn Products, Inc., and Cap Toys, Inc. (OddzOn), wholly owned subsidiaries of Russ Berrie and Company, Inc., for a purchase price of $167,379. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method and, based on estimates of fair market value, $43,582 has been allocated to net tangible assets, $76,700 to product rights and $47,097 to goodwill. Hasbro made three major acquisitions during 1998, having an aggregate purchase price of $669,737. On April 1, it acquired substantially all of the business and operating assets of Tiger Electronics, Inc. and certain affiliates (Tiger). On September 14, 1998, it acquired MicroProse, Inc. (MicroProse) through a cash tender offer of $6.00 for each outstanding share of MicroProse. Upon completion of a short-form merger, MicroProse became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and each untendered share was converted into the right to receive $6.00 in cash. On October 30, 1998, it acquired Galoob Toys, Inc. (Galoob) through a cash tender offer of $12.00 for each outstanding share of Galoob. Upon completion of a short-form merger, Galoob became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and each untendered share was converted into the right to receive $12.00 in cash. These three acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method, and accordingly, the net assets acquired have been recorded at their fair value and the results of their operations included from the dates of acquisition. Based on estimates of fair market value, $90,494 has been allocated to net tangible assets, $306,710 to product rights, $252,533 to goodwill and $20,000 to acquired in-process research and development. The appraised fair value of this acquired in-process research and development (interactive game software projects under development at the date of acquisition) was determined using the discounted cash flow approach, considered the percentage of completion at the date of acquisition and was expensed at acquisition. On a pro forma basis, reflecting these three acquisitions as if they had taken place at the beginning of each period and after giving effect to adjustments recording the acquisitions, and excluding the charge for in- process research and development, unaudited net revenues, net earnings and basic and diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 27, 1998 would have been $3,530,807, $171,866, $.87 and $.84, respectively, and for the year ended December 28, 1997 would have been $3,904,061, $65,189, $.34 and $.34, respectively. These pro forma results are not indicative of either future performance or actual results which would have occurred had the acquisitions taken place at the beginning of the respective periods. (3) Inventories ----------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- Finished products $283,160 198,215 Work in process 12,698 12,208 Raw materials 38,943 32,279 ------- ------- $334,801 242,702 ======= ======= (4) Property, Plant and Equipment ----------------------------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- Land and improvements $ 14,748 13,297 Buildings and improvements 197,295 181,362 Machinery and equipment 295,810 265,313 ------- ------- 507,853 459,972 Less accumulated depreciation 227,820 219,106 ------- ------- 280,033 240,866 Tools, dies and molds, net of amortization 50,322 39,737 ------- ------- $330,355 280,603 ======= ======= Expenditures for maintenance and repairs which do not materially extend the life of the assets are charged to operations. (5) Short-Term Borrowings --------------------- Hasbro has available unsecured committed and uncommitted lines of credit from various banks approximating $500,000 and $750,000, respectively. Substantially all of the short-term borrowings outstanding at the end of 1998 and 1997 represent borrowings made under, or supported by, these lines of credit and the weighted average interest rates of the outstanding borrowings were 6.0% and 6.3%, respectively. Hasbro's working capital needs were fulfilled by borrowing under these lines of credit and through the issuance of commercial paper, both of which were on terms and at interest rates generally extended to companies of comparable creditworthiness. The committed line includes $350,000 and $150,000 available under long-term and short-term revolving credit agreements, respectively. These agreements contain certain restrictive covenants with which the Company is in compliance. Compensating balances and facility fees were not material. (6) Accrued Liabilities ------------------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- Royalties $116,603 95,418 Advertising 172,621 112,299 Payroll and management incentives 54,622 44,014 1997 restructuring accruals 62,996 120,099 Other 322,763 224,203 ------- ------- $729,605 596,033 ======= ======= (7) Long-Term Debt -------------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- 5.60% Notes Due 2005 $100,000 - 6.15% Notes Due 2008 150,000 - 6.60% Debentures Due 2028 150,000 - Other 7,180 - ------- ------- $407,180 - ======= ======= Current installments of $260 in 1998 are aggregated with short-term borrowings. The maturities of long-term debt in 2000 and in the succeeding three years are $296, $310, $324 and $339. (8) Income Taxes ------------ Income taxes attributable to earnings before income taxes are: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Current United States $ 40,256 62,042 58,580 State and local 5,226 8,296 9,033 International 49,952 39,756 47,488 ------- ------- ------- 95,434 110,094 115,101 ------- ------- ------- Deferred United States (6,458) (31,533) 4,309 State and local (554) (2,793) 406 International 8,691 (6,229) (12,835) ------- ------- ------- 1,679 (40,555) (8,120) ------- ------- ------- $ 97,113 69,539 106,981 ======= ======= ======= Certain tax benefits are not reflected in income taxes in the statements of earnings. Such benefits of $14,377 in 1998, $4,036 in 1997 and $6,793 in 1996, relate primarily to stock options. A reconciliation of the statutory United States federal income tax rate to Hasbro's effective income tax rate is as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Statutory income tax rate 35.0% 35.0% 35.0% State and local income taxes, net 1.0 1.7 2.0 Goodwill amortization 1.8 2.4 1.6 Tax on international earnings (5.4) (4.9) (2.2) Reduction of valuation allowance - - (1.1) Other, net (.4) (.2) (.4) ---- ---- ---- 32.0% 34.0% 34.9% ==== ==== ==== The components of earnings before income taxes, determined by tax jurisdiction, are as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- United States $123,969 157,987 208,864 International 179,509 46,538 98,029 ------- ------- ------- $303,478 204,525 306,893 ======= ======= ======= The components of deferred income tax expense arise from various temporary differences and relate to items included in the statements of earnings. The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 27, 1998 and December 28, 1997 are: 1998 1997 ---- ---- Deferred tax assets: Accounts receivable $ 27,556 24,497 Inventories 14,718 12,576 Net operating loss carryovers 31,608 22,821 Operating expenses 44,491 45,503 Postretirement benefits 12,269 12,343 Other 74,955 53,689 ------- ------- Gross deferred tax assets 205,597 171,429 Valuation allowance (13,261) (8,649) ------- ------- Net deferred tax assets 192,336 162,780 ------- ------- Deferred tax liabilities 46,174 49,060 ------- ------- Net deferred income taxes $146,162 113,720 ======= ======= Hasbro has a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets at December 27, 1998 of $13,261, which is an increase of $4,612 from the $8,649 at December 28, 1997. The allowance pertains to United States and international operating loss carryforwards, some of which have no expiration and others that would expire beginning in 2001. If fully realized, $8,760 will reduce goodwill and the balance will reduce future income tax expense. Deferred tax liabilities relate primarily to property rights. Based on Hasbro's history of taxable income and the anticipation of sufficient taxable income in years when the temporary differences are expected to become tax deductions, it believes that it will realize the benefit of the deferred tax assets, net of the existing valuation allowance. Deferred income taxes of $100,332 and $96,489 at the end of 1998 and 1997, respectively, are included as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets, and $53,331 and $21,541, respectively, are included as a component of other assets. At the same dates, deferred income taxes of $7,010 and $1,553, respectively, are included as a component of deferred liabilities. The cumulative amount of undistributed earnings of Hasbro's international subsidiaries held for reinvestment is approximately $282,000 at December 27, 1998. In the event that all international undistributed earnings were remitted to the United States, the amount of incremental taxes would be approximately $39,000. (9) Capital Stock ------------- Preference Share Purchase Rights -------------------------------- Hasbro maintains a Preference Share Purchase Rights plan (the Rights Plan). Under the terms of the Rights Plan, each share of common stock is accompanied by a Preference Share Purchase Right. Each Right is only exercisable under certain circumstances and, until exercisable, the Rights are not transferable apart from Hasbro's common stock. When exercisable, each Right will entitle its holder to purchase until June 30, 1999, in certain merger or other business combination or recapitalization transactions, at the Right's then current exercise price, a number of the acquiring company's or Hasbro's, as the case may be, common shares having a market value at that time of twice the Right's exercise price. Under certain circumstances, the rightholder may, at the option of the Board of Directors of Hasbro (the Board), receive shares of Hasbro's stock in exchange for Rights. Prior to the acquisition by the person or group of beneficial ownership of a certain percentage of Hasbro's common stock, the Rights are redeemable for $.00296 per Right. The Rights Plan contains certain exceptions with respect to the Hassenfeld family and related entities. Common Stock ------------ On December 9, 1997, the Board canceled all prior share repurchase authorizations and authorized the purchase of up to an additional $500,000 of the Company's common stock. At December 27, 1998, $309,540 remained under this authorization. On February 19, 1999, the Board declared a three-for-two stock split, payable in the form of a 50% stock dividend, on March 15, 1999 to shareholders of record on March 1, 1999. Appropriate changes to reflect the split have been effected in the stock options and warrants. Except for balance sheet presentation of the December 28, 1997 outstanding and treasury shares, all share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect this split. (10) Stock Options and Warrants -------------------------- Hasbro has various stock option plans for employees as well as a plan for non-employee members of the Board (collectively, the plans) and has reserved 25,351,914 shares of its common stock for issuance upon exercise of options granted or to be granted under the plans. These options generally vest in equal annual amounts over three to five years. The plans provide that options be granted at exercise prices not less than market value on the date the option is granted and options are adjusted for such changes as stock splits and stock dividends. No options are exercisable for periods of more than ten years after date of grant. Although certain of the plans permit the granting of awards in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards and cash awards, to date, only stock options have been granted. As permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), Hasbro continues to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25) in accounting for the plans under which no compensation cost is recognized. Had compensation expense been recorded under the provisions of SFAS 123, the impact on the Company's net earnings and earnings per share would have been: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Reported net earnings $206,365 134,986 199,912 Pro forma compensation expense, net of tax (10,339) (5,880) (3,001) ------- ------- ------- Pro forma net earnings $196,026 129,106 196,911 ======= ======= ======= Pro forma earnings per share Basic $ .99 .67 1.01 Diluted $ .95 .65 .97 ======= ======= ======= The weighted average fair value of options granted in 1998, 1997 and 1996 were $8.66, $5.76 and $4.62, respectively. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 5.70%, 6.20% and 5.51%; expected dividend yields of 0.85%, 1.12% and 1.13% and expected volatility of approximately 26% in 1998 and 21% in 1997 and 1996, and lives of approximately 6 years. Additionally, the Company has reserved 22,500,000 shares of its common stock for issuance upon exercise of outstanding warrants. During 1998, warrants to purchase 6,000,000 shares at an exercise price of $23.3333 per share were issued in connection with the acquisition of certain rights. The fair value of these warrants was $11.42 each on the date of grant. Information with respect to options and warrants, in thousands of shares, for the three years ended December 27, 1998 is as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Number of shares: Outstanding at beginning of year 31,424 20,452 13,315 Granted 8,639 14,191 9,508 Exercised (3,468) (2,651) (1,854) Expired or canceled (234) (568) (517) ------ ------ ------ Outstanding at end of year 36,361 31,424 20,452 ====== ====== ====== Exercisable at end of year 11,673 11,090 9,878 ====== ====== ====== Weighted average exercise price: Granted $ 23.86 18.77 14.50 Exercised $ 13.34 12.30 9.65 Expired or canceled $ 18.75 15.80 14.78 Outstanding at end of year $ 18.17 16.08 13.71 Exercisable at end of year $ 14.43 13.46 12.88 ====== ====== ====== Information, in thousands of shares, with respect to the 36,361 options and warrants outstanding and the 11,673 exercisable at December 27, 1998, is as follows: Weighted Average Weighted Remaining Average Range of Contractual Exercise Exercise Prices Shares Life Price --------------- ------- ---------- ------- Outstanding $ 4.56-$13.86 2,024 4.1 years $10.61 $14.00-$17.68 12,250 4.6 years $14.72 $18.67-$20.06 13,478 9.7 years $18.80 $23.04-$29.72 8,609 10.7 years $23.86 ====== ===== Exercisable $ 4.56-$13.86 2,024 $10.61 $14.00-$17.68 8,648 $14.78 $18.67-$20.06 988 $19.06 $23.04-$29.72 13 $24.88 ====== ===== (11) Pension, Postretirement and Postemployment Benefits --------------------------------------------------- Pension and Postretirement Benefits ----------------------------------- Hasbro's net pension and profit sharing cost for 1998, 1997 and 1996 was approximately $12,900, $13,400 and $15,700, respectively. United States Plans ------------------- Substantially all United States employees are covered under at least one of several non-contributory defined benefit pension plans maintained by the Company. Benefits under the two major plans, principally covering non-union employees, are based primarily on salary and years of service. One of these plans is funded. Benefits under the remaining plans are based primarily on fixed amounts for specified years of service. One of these plans is also funded. At December 27, 1998, the two funded plans have plan assets of $219,410 and accumulated benefit obligations of $149,907. The unfunded plans have accumulated benefit obligations of $15,740. Hasbro also provides certain postretirement health care and life insurance benefits to eligible employees who retire and have either attained age 65 with 5 years of service or age 55 with 10 years of service. The cost of providing these benefits on behalf of employees who retired prior to 1993 is and will continue to be substantially borne by the Company. The cost of providing benefits on behalf of employees who retire after 1992 is shared, with the employee contributing an increasing percentage of the cost, resulting in an employee-paid plan after the year 2002. The plan is not funded.

For measuring the expected pension accumulated benefit obligation, assumed discount rates of 6.75%, 7.00% and 7.75% were used for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively; assumed long-term rates of compensation increase of 4.50% in 1998 and 5.00% in 1997 and 1996, and an assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets of 9.00% in all years. For measuring the expected postretirement benefit obligation, a 7.50%, 8.00% and 8.60% annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits was assumed for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The 1998 rate was further assumed to decrease gradually to 4.50% in 2012, while the 1997 and 1996 rates were assumed to decrease to 5.00% over this same period. All were assumed to remain constant after 2012. The discount rates used in the pension calculation were also used for the postretirement calculation. 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Components of net periodic cost ------------------------------- Pension ------- Service cost $ 9,362 8,022 8,583 Interest cost 12,798 11,451 9,869 Expected return on assets (17,465) (14,517) (11,633) Net amortization and deferrals (448) (465) 168 ------- ------- ------- Net periodic benefit cost $ 4,247 4,491 6,987 ======= ======= ======= Postretirement -------------- Service cost $ 224 205 289 Interest cost 1,893 2,039 1,727 Net amortization and deferrals 57 22 - ------- ------- ------- Net periodic benefit cost $ 2,174 2,266 2,016 ======= ======= ======= If the health care cost trend rate were increased one percentage point in each year, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 28, 1998 and the aggregate of the benefits earned during the period and the interest cost would have each increased by approximately 10%. Hasbro also has a profit sharing plan covering substantially all of its United States non-union employees. The plan provides for an annual discretionary contribution by the Company which for 1998, 1997 and 1996 was approximately $5,000, $5,100 and $5,000, respectively. International Plans ------------------- Pension coverage for employees of Hasbro's international subsidiaries is provided, to the extent deemed appropriate, through separate defined benefit and defined contribution plans. These plans were neither significant individually nor in the aggregate. Postemployment Benefits ----------------------- Hasbro has several plans covering certain groups of employees which may provide benefits to such employees following their period of active employment but prior to their retirement. These plans include certain severance plans which provide benefits to employees involuntarily terminated and certain plans which continue the Company's health and life insurance contributions for employees who have left Hasbro's employ under terms of its long-term disability plan. (12) Leases ------ Hasbro occupies certain manufacturing facilities and sales offices and uses certain equipment under various operating lease arrangements. The rent expense under such arrangements, net of sublease income which is not material, for 1998, 1997 and 1996 amounted to $50,932, $48,090 and $46,092, respectively. Minimum rentals, net of minimum sublease income which is not material, under long-term operating leases for the five years subsequent to 1998 and in the aggregate are as follows: 1999 $ 38,163 2000 29,251 2001 22,941 2002 17,954 2003 15,523 Later years 89,486 ------- $213,318 ======= All leases expire prior to 2014. Real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance expenses are generally obligations of the Company. It is expected that in the normal course of business, leases that expire will be renewed or replaced by leases on other properties; thus, it is anticipated that future minimum lease commitments will not be less than the amounts shown for 1998. In addition, Hasbro leases certain facilities which, as a result of restructurings, are no longer in use. Future costs relating to such facilities were included as a component of the restructuring charge and are not included in the table above. (13) Restructuring Charge -------------------- Late in the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company announced a global integration and profit enhancement program which anticipated the redundancy of approximately 2,500 employees, principally in manufacturing, and provided for actions in three principal areas: a continued consolidation of the Company's manufacturing operations; the streamlining of marketing and sales, while exiting from certain underperforming markets and product lines; and the further leveraging of overheads. Of the $140,000 estimated costs related to these actions, $125,000 was reported as a nonrecurring charge and $15,000 was reflected in cost of sales. Of the nonrecurring amount approximately $54,000 related to severance and people costs, $52,000 to property, plant and equipment and leases and $19,000 to product line related costs. During 1998, the employment of all employees planned for redundancy was terminated. The approximate $63,000 accrual remaining at December 27, 1998, is principally attributable to severance costs, which will be disbursed over the employee's entitlement period, and costs associated with lease terminations and closing of certain facilities. In the balance sheet, such property, plant and equipment is included as a component of other assets. With the exception of the ultimate disposition of certain facilities closed as a result of this program, the program has been substantially completed. (14) Financial Instruments --------------------- Hasbro's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short- and long-term borrowings, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. At December 27, 1998, the carrying cost of these instruments approximated their fair value. Its financial instruments also include foreign currency forwards and options. At December 27, 1998, the carrying value of these instruments approximated their fair value based on quoted or publicly available market information. Hasbro uses foreign currency forwards and options, generally purchased for terms of not more than twelve months, to protect itself from adverse currency rate fluctuations on firmly committed and anticipated foreign currency transactions. These over-the-counter contracts, which hedge future purchases of inventory and other cross-border currency requirements, are primarily denominated in United States and Hong Kong dollars and Irish punts and entered into with counterparties who are major financial institutions with which Hasbro also has other financial relationships. The Company believes any risk related to default by a counterparty to be remote. The Company had the equivalent of approximately $130,000 and $35,000 of foreign currency forwards outstanding at December 27, 1998 and December 28, 1997, respectively, and approximately $135,000 of foreign currency options outstanding at December 28, 1997. Gains and losses deferred under hedge accounting provisions are subsequently included in the measurement of the related foreign currency transaction. Gains and losses on contracts not meeting hedge accounting provisions are included currently in earnings. The aggregate amount of gains and losses resulting from all foreign currency transactions was not material. (15) Commitments and Contingencies ----------------------------- Hasbro had unused open letters of credit of approximately $20,000 and $15,000 at December 27, 1998 and December 28, 1997, respectively. The Company routinely enters into license agreements with inventors, designers and others for the use of intellectual properties in its products. Certain of these agreements contain provisions for the payment of guaranteed or minimum royalty amounts. Under terms of currently existing agreements, in certain circumstances the Company may become liable for guaranteed minimum royalties of up to $660,000 between 1998 and 2007. Of this amount, in excess of $110,000 has been paid and is included in the $145,066 of prepaid royalties which are a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheet. Of the remaining amount, Hasbro may be required to pay approximately $250,000, $120,000 and $120,000 in 1999, 2002 and 2005, respectively. Such payments are related to royalties which are expected to be incurred on anticipated revenues in the years 1999 through 2007. Hasbro is party to certain legal proceedings, substantially involving routine litigation incidental to the Company's business, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, is deemed to be material to the financial condition of the Company. (16) Segment Reporting ----------------- Segment and Geographic Information ---------------------------------- Effective at year end 1998, Hasbro adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (SFAS 131), Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the requirements of SFAS 131. Hasbro and its subsidiaries operate in one segment, the marketing, licensing, development, manufacture and sourcing of toy and game products on a global basis. Accounting policies for management reporting are those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Information as to Hasbro's operations in different geographical areas is presented below on the basis the Company uses to manage its business. Net revenues and the related pretax earnings are categorized based on location of the customer, while long-lived assets (property, plant and equipment, cost in excess of acquired net assets and other intangibles) are categorized based on their location: 1998 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- Net revenues United States $2,113,057 1,947,824 1,777,579 International 1,191,397 1,240,735 1,224,791 --------- --------- --------- $3,304,454 3,188,559 3,002,370 ========= ========= ======== Pretax Earnings United States $ 194,050 117,436 156,391 International 109,428 87,089 150,502 --------- --------- --------- $ 303,478 204,525 306,893 ========= ========= ========= Long-lived assets United States $1,694,967 1,119,836 986,344 International 177,569 126,067 152,655 --------- --------- --------- $1,872,536 1,245,903 1,138,999 ========= ========= ========= Principal international markets include Western Europe, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong. Other Information ----------------- Hasbro markets its products primarily to customers in the retail sector. Although the Company closely monitors the creditworthiness of its customers, adjusting credit policies and limits as deemed appropriate, a substantial portion of its customers' ability to discharge amounts owed is dependent upon the overall retail economic environment. Sales to the Company's two largest customers, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and Toys `R Us, Inc., amounted to 18% and 17%, respectively, of consolidated net revenues during 1998, 15% and 22%, respectively, during 1997 and 13% and 22%, respectively, during 1996. Hasbro purchases certain components and accessories used in its manufacturing process and certain finished products from manufacturers in the Far East. The Company's reliance on external sources of manufacturing can be shifted, over a period of time, to alternative sources of supply for products it sells, should such changes be necessary. However, if Hasbro were prevented from obtaining products from a substantial number of its current Far East suppliers due to political, labor or other factors beyond its control, the Company's operations would be disrupted while alternative sources of product were secured. The imposition of trade sanctions by the United States or the European Union against a class of products imported by Hasbro from, or the loss of "most favored nation" trading status by, the Peoples Republic of China could significantly increase the cost of the Company's products imported into the United States or Europe from China.
