                               NETWORK PLUS CORP.

                          Common Stock Purchase Warrant

                                                              New York, New York
No. FW-3                                                      September 27, 2000

          NETWORK PLUS CORP. (the "COMPANY"), a Delaware corporation, for value
received, hereby certifies that SNOGA, INC., or registered assigns, is entitled
to purchase from the Company 1,284,685 duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
"COMMON STOCK") of the Company at the purchase price per share of $7.01, at any
time or from time to time prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on September
27, 2003 (or such earlier date as may be determined pursuant to section 3), all
subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments set forth below in this
Warrant.

          This Warrant evidences rights to purchase an aggregate of 1,284,685
shares of Common Stock subject to adjustment as provided herein. Certain
capitalized terms used in this Warrant are defined in section 13; references to
an "Exhibit" are, unless otherwise specified, to one of the Exhibits attached to
this Warrant and references to a "section" are, unless otherwise specified, to
one of the sections of this Warrant.

          1.   EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

          1.1. MANNER OF EXERCISE. This Warrant may be exercised by the holder
hereof, in whole or in part, during normal business hours on any Business Day,
by surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal office, accompanied
by a subscription in substantially the form attached to this Warrant (or a
reasonable facsimile thereof) duly executed by such holder and accompanied by
payment, in cash, by certified or official bank check payable to the order of
the Company, or in the manner provided in section 1.4 or section 1.5 (or by any
combination of such methods), in the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the
whole number of shares of Common Stock (without giving effect to any adjustment
thereof) designated in such subscription by (b) $7.01 (as adjusted pursuant to
the terms hereof), and such holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the
number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares
of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided in sections 2
through 4.

          1.2. WHEN EXERCISE EFFECTIVE. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the
Business Day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as
provided in section 1.1, and at such time the Person or Persons in whose name or
names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common

   2

Stock (or Other Securities) shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in
section 1.3 shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record
thereof.

          1.3. DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES, ETC. As soon as practicable after
each exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, and in any event within ten
Business Days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by
it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and
delivered to the holder hereof or, subject to section 9, as such holder (upon
payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct,

          (a)  a certificate or certificates for the number of duly authorized,
     validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or
     Other Securities) to which such holder shall be entitled upon such exercise
     plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise
     be entitled, cash in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Market
     Price per share on the Business Day next preceding the date of such
     exercise, and

          (b)  in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or Warrants
     of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for
     the number of shares of Common Stock equal (without giving effect to any
     adjustment thereof) to the number of such shares called for on the face of
     this Warrant minus the number of such shares designated by the holder upon
     such exercise as provided in section 1.1.

          The holder hereof shall comply will all applicable provisions of the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Law of 1976, as amended, and any
successor statute, in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, and shall
provide to the Company upon its reasonable request a certificate of such
compliance.

          1.4. PAYMENT BY APPLICATION OF SHARES OTHERWISE ISSUABLE. Upon any
exercise of this Warrant, the holder hereof may, at its option, instruct the
Company, by written notice accompanying the surrender of this Warrant at the
time of such exercise, to apply to the payment required by section 1.1 such
number of the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder upon such
exercise as shall be specified in such notice, in which case an amount equal to
the excess of the aggregate Current Market Price of such specified number of
shares on the date of exercise over the portion of the payment required by
section 1.1 attributable to such shares shall be deemed to have been paid to the
Company and the number of shares issuable upon such exercise shall be reduced by
such specified number.

          1.5. EXERCISE OF WARRANTS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth herein, no Warrant shall be exercisable other than in accordance with
this section 1.5. The Warrants shall be exercisable as follows: (i) 72.73% of
holder's Warrants shall be exercisable at any time on or after the Closing Date
(as defined in the Credit Agreement), (ii) 13.64% shall be exercisable on a pro
rata basis with each amount drawn by the Company on the first $100 million of
loans under the Credit Agreement divided by $100 million, and (iii) 13.63% shall
be exercisable at any time on or after the date the amount drawn by the Company
under the Credit Agreement exceeds $100 million

          2.   ADJUSTMENT OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE.

   3

          2.1. GENERAL; WARRANT PRICE. The number of shares of Common Stock
which the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon each exercise
hereof shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock
which would otherwise (but for the provisions of this section 2) be issuable
upon such exercise, as designated by the holder hereof pursuant to section 1.1,
by the fraction of which (a) the numerator is $7.01 and (b) the denominator is
the Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise. The "Warrant Price"
shall initially be $7.01 per share, shall be adjusted and readjusted from time
to time as provided in this section 2 and, as so adjusted or readjusted, shall
remain in effect until a further adjustment or readjustment thereof is required
by this section 2.

          2.2. ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT PRICE.

          2.2.1 ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK. In case the
Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue or
sell Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common
Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to section 2.3 or 2.4) without consideration
or for a consideration per share less than the Current Market Price in effect
immediately prior to such issue or sale, then, subject to section 2.8, the
Warrant Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue or sale, to a price
(calculated to the nearest .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such
Warrant Price by a fraction

          (a)  the numerator of which shall be (i) the number of shares of
     Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale plus (ii)
     the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration
     received by the Company for the total number of such Additional Shares of
     Common Stock so issued or sold would purchase at such Current Market Price,
     and

          (b)  the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common
     Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale,

PROVIDED that, for the purposes of this section 2.2.1, (x) immediately after any
Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed to have been issued pursuant to
section 2.3 or 2.4, such Additional Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding,
and (y) treasury shares shall not be deemed to be outstanding.

          2.2.2 EXTRAORDINARY DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. In case the Company
at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall declare, order, pay
or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without limitation, any
distribution of other or additional stock or other securities or property or
Options by way of dividend or spin-off, reclassification, recapitalization or
similar corporate rearrangement) on the Common Stock, other than a dividend
payable in Additional

                                       3
   4

Shares of Common Stock, then, and in each such case, subject to section 2.8, the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record
date fixed for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the
close of business on such record date, to a price (calculated to the nearest
 .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction

          (x)  the numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price in
     effect on such record date or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend
     basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading, less
     the amount of such dividend or distribution (as determined in good faith by
     the Board of Directors of the Company) applicable to one share of Common
     Stock, and

          (y)  the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price.

          2.3. TREATMENT OF OPTIONS AND CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. In case the
Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue,
sell, grant or assume, or shall fix a record date for the determination of
holders of any class of securities entitled to receive, any Options or
Convertible Securities, then, and in each such case, the maximum number of
Additional Shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating
thereto, without regard to any provisions contained therein for a subsequent
adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the
case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange
of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of
Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue, sale, grant or assumption or,
in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on
such record date (or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, on the
date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading), PROVIDED that such
Additional Shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed to have been issued unless
the consideration per share (determined pursuant to section 2.5) of such shares
would be less than the Current Market Price in effect on the date of and
immediately prior to such issue, sale, grant or assumption or immediately prior
to the close of business on such record date (or, if the Common Stock trades on
an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend
trading), and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in any such case in which Additional
Shares of Common Stock are deemed to be issued

          (a)  no further adjustment of the Warrant Price shall be made upon the
     subsequent issue or sale of Convertible Securities or shares of Common
     Stock upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of
     such Convertible Securities, except in the case of any such Options or
     Convertible Securities which contain provisions requiring an adjustment,
     subsequent to the date of the issue or sale thereof, of the number of
     Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such
     Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities by
     reason of (x) a change of control of the

                                       4
   5

     Company, (y) the acquisition by any Person or group of Persons of any
     specified number or percentage of the Voting Securities of the Company or
     (z) any similar event or occurrence, each such case to be deemed hereunder
     to involve a separate issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock,
     Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be;

          (b)  if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms provide,
     with the passage of time or otherwise, for any increase in the
     consideration payable to the Company, or decrease in the number of
     Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable, upon the exercise, conversion
     or exchange thereof (by change of rate or otherwise), the Warrant Price
     computed upon the original issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof (or
     upon the occurrence of the record date, or date prior to the commencement
     of ex-dividend trading, as the case may be, with respect thereto), and any
     subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon any such increase or
     decrease becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such increase or
     decrease insofar as it affects such Options, or the rights of conversion or
     exchange under such Convertible Securities, which are outstanding at such
     time;

          (c)  upon the expiration (or purchase by the Company and cancellation
     or retirement) of any such Options which shall not have been exercised or
     the expiration of any rights of conversion or exchange under any such
     Convertible Securities which (or purchase by the Company and cancellation
     or retirement of any such Convertible Securities the rights of conversion
     or exchange under which) shall not have been exercised, the Warrant Price
     computed upon the original issue, sale, grant or assumption thereof (or
     upon the occurrence of the record date, or date prior to the commencement
     of ex-dividend trading, as the case may be, with respect thereto), and any
     subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such expiration (or such
     cancellation or retirement, as the case may be), be recomputed as if:

               (i)  in the case of Options for Common Stock or Convertible
          Securities, the only Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold
          were the Additional Shares of Common Stock, if any, actually issued or
          sold upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange
          of such Convertible Securities and the consideration received therefor
          was the consideration actually received by the Company for the issue,
          sale, grant or assumption of all such Options, whether or not
          exercised, plus the consideration actually received by the Company
          upon such exercise, or for the issue or sale of all such Convertible
          Securities which were actually converted or exchanged, plus the
          additional consideration, if any, actually received by the Company
          upon such conversion or exchange, and

               (ii) in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, only the
          Convertible Securities, if any, actually issued or sold upon the
          exercise of such Options were

                                       5
   6

          issued at the time of the issue, sale, grant or assumption of such
          Options, and the consideration received by the Company for the
          Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have then been issued was
          the consideration actually received by the Company for the issue,
          sale, grant or assumption of all such Options, whether or not
          exercised, plus the consideration deemed to have been received by the
          Company (pursuant to section 2.5) upon the issue or sale of such
          Convertible Securities with respect to which such Options were
          actually exercised;

          (d)  no readjustment pursuant to subdivision (b) or (c) above shall
     have the effect of increasing the Warrant Price by an amount in excess of
     the amount of the adjustment thereof originally made in respect of the
     issue, sale, grant or assumption of such Options or Convertible Securities;
     and

          (e)  in the case of any such Options which expire by their terms not
     more than 30 days after the date of issue, sale, grant or assumption
     thereof, no adjustment of the Warrant Price shall be made until the
     expiration or exercise of all such Options, whereupon such adjustment shall
     be made in the manner provided in subdivision (c) above.

          2.4. TREATMENT OF STOCK DIVIDENDS, STOCK SPLITS, ETC. In case the
Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall declare or
pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in Common Stock, or shall effect a
subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a
dividend in Common Stock), then, and in each such case, Additional Shares of
Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued (a) in the case of any such
dividend, immediately after the close of business on the record date for the
determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such
dividend, or (b) in the case of any such subdivision, at the close of business
on the day immediately prior to the day upon which such corporate action becomes
effective.

          2.5. COMPUTATION OF CONSIDERATION. For the purposes of this section 2,

          (a)  the consideration for the issue or sale of any Additional Shares
     of Common Stock shall, irrespective of the accounting treatment of such
     consideration,

               (i)  insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the net
          amount of cash received by the Company,

               (ii) insofar as it consists of property (including securities)
          other than cash, be computed at the fair value thereof at the time of
          such issue or sale, as determined in good faith by the Board of
          Directors of the Company, and

                                       6
   7

               (iii) in case Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or
          sold together with other stock or securities or other assets of the
          Company for a consideration which covers both, be the portion of such
          consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (i) and
          (ii) above, allocable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock, all
          as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company;

          (b)  Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued
     pursuant to section 2.3, relating to Options and Convertible Securities,
     shall be deemed to have been issued for a consideration per share
     determined by dividing

               (i)  the total amount, if any, received and receivable by the
          Company as consideration for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of
          the Options or Convertible Securities in question, plus the minimum
          aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the
          instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision
          contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration to
          protect against dilution) payable to the Company upon the exercise in
          full of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
          Securities or, in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the
          exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion
          or exchange of such Convertible Securities, in each case computing
          such consideration as provided in the foregoing subdivision (a),

by

               (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth
          in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision
          contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number to
          protect against dilution) issuable upon the exercise of such Options
          or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities; and

          (c)  Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued
     pursuant to section 2.4, relating to stock dividends, stock splits, etc.,
     shall be deemed to have been issued for no consideration.

          2.6. ADJUSTMENTS FOR COMBINATIONS, ETC. In case the outstanding shares
of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification, reverse
stock-split or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation
shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination or consolidation,
be proportionately increased.

                                       7
   8

          2.7. MINIMUM ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT PRICE. If the amount of any
adjustment of the Warrant Price required pursuant to this section 2 would be
less than one tenth (1/10) of one percent (1%) of the Warrant Price in effect at
the time such adjustment is otherwise so required to be made, such amount shall
be carried forward and adjustment with respect thereto made at the time of and
together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any
other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate at least one tenth
(1/10) of one percent (1%) of such Warrant Price.

          3.   ADJUSTMENTS FOR CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE OF ASSETS,
REORGANIZATION, ETC. In case the Company after the date hereof (a) shall
consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing
or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (b) shall permit
any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Company and the Company
shall be the continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with such
consolidation or merger, the Common Stock or Other Securities shall be changed
into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other Person or cash or
any other property, or (c) shall transfer all or substantially all of its
properties or assets to any other Person, or (d) shall effect a capital
reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock or Other Securities
(other than a capital reorganization or reclassification resulting in the issue
of Additional Shares of Common Stock for which adjustment in the Warrant Price
is provided in section 2.2.1 or 2.2.2), THEN, this Warrant shall automatically
terminate in its entirety immediately upon the consummation of such transaction;
provided that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner provided in this
Warrant, the holder of this Warrant shall be permitted to exercise this Warrant
immediately preceding the consummation of such transaction and immediately after
such exercise shall be entitled to receive (at the aggregate Warrant Price in
effect at the time of such consummation for all Common Stock or Other Securities
issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to such consummation), in lieu of
the Common Stock or Other Securities issuable upon such exercise prior to such
consummation, the stock and other securities, cash and property to which such
holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had
exercised the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior thereto.

          4.   OTHER DILUTIVE EVENTS. In case any event shall occur as to which
the provisions of section 2 or section 3 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 of such sections, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint
a firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized national
standing (which may be the regular auditors of the Company), which shall give
their opinion upon the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the
essential intent and principles established in sections 2 and 3, necessary to
preserve, without dilution, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant.
Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to
the holder of this Warrant and shall make the adjustments described therein.

                                       8
   9

          5.   NO DILUTION OR IMPAIRMENT. The Company will not, by amendment of
its certificate of incorporation or through any consolidation, merger,
reorganization, transfer of assets, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or
any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance
of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist
in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as
may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of
this Warrant against dilution or other impairment. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) will not permit the par value of
any shares of stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant to exceed the
amount payable therefor upon such exercise, (b) will take all such action as may
be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally
issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of stock on the exercise of the
Warrants from time to time outstanding and (c) will not take any action which
results in any adjustment of the Warrant Price if the total number of shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable after the action upon the exercise
of all of the Warrants would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) then authorized by the Company's certificate of
incorporation and available for the purpose of issue upon such exercise.

          6.   REPORT AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. In each case of any adjustment or
readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will promptly compute
such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and
provide to holder an officers certificate verifying such computation (other than
any computation of the fair value of property as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Company) and prepare a report setting forth such
adjustment or readjustment and showing in reasonable detail the method of
calculation thereof and the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is
based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or to be received
by the Company for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold or
deemed to have been issued, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such issue or sale and as adjusted and readjusted (if required by
section 2) on account thereof. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each
such report to each holder of a Warrant and will, upon the written request at
any time of any holder of a Warrant, furnish to such holder a like report
setting forth the Warrant Price at the time in effect and showing in reasonable
detail how it was calculated.

          7.   NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION. In the event of
          (a)  any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of Common
     Stock for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled
     to receive any dividend (other than a regular periodic dividend payable in
     cash out of earned surplus in an amount not exceeding the amount of the
     immediately preceding cash dividend for such period) or other distribution,
     or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of
     stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any
     other right, or

                                       9
   10

          (b)  any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification
     or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any
     consolidation or merger involving the Company and any other Person or any
     transfer of all or substantially all the assets of the Company to any other
     Person, or

          (c)  any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
     winding-up of the Company,

the Company will mail to each holder of a Warrant a notice specifying (i) the
date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of
such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such
dividend, distribution or right, and (ii) the date or expected date on which any
such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation, merger,
transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place and the time,
if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) for the securities or other property deliverable
upon such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, consolidation,
merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be
mailed at least twenty days prior to the date therein specified.

          8.   REGISTRATION OF COMMON STOCK. If any shares of Common Stock
required to be reserved for purposes of exercise of this Warrant require
registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or
state law (other than the Securities Act) before such shares may be issued upon
exercise, the Company will, at its expense and as expeditiously as possible, use
its reasonable best efforts to cause such shares to be duly registered or
approved, as the case may be. At any such time as Common Stock is listed on any
national securities exchange, the Company will, at its expense, use its
reasonable best efforts to obtain promptly and maintain the approval for listing
on each such exchange, upon official notice of issuance, the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the then outstanding Warrants and maintain the
listing of such shares after their issuance; and the Company will use its
reasonable best efforts to list on such national securities exchange, register
under the Exchange Act and maintain such listing of, any Other Securities that
at any time are issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, if and at the time that
any securities of the same class shall be listed on such national securities
exchange by the Company.

          9.   RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.

          9.1. RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. Except as otherwise permitted by this
section 9, each Warrant (including each Warrant issued upon the transfer of any
Warrant) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially
the following form:

                                       10
   11

          "This Warrant and any shares acquired upon the exercise of this
     Warrant have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
     amended, and may not be transferred, sold or otherwise disposed of except
     while a registration under such Act is in effect or pursuant to an
     exemption therefrom under such Act. This Warrant and such shares may be
     transferred only in compliance with the conditions specified in this
     Warrant."

Except as otherwise permitted by this section 9, each certificate for Common
Stock (or Other Securities) issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, and each
certificate issued upon the transfer of any such Common Stock (or Other
Securities), shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in
substantially the following form:

          "The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered
     under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be transferred in the absence
     of such registration or an exemption therefrom under such Act. Such shares
     may be transferred only in compliance with the conditions specified in
     certain Common Stock Purchase Warrants issued by Network Plus Corp. A
     complete and correct copy of the form of such Warrant is available from
     Network Plus Corp. and will be furnished to the holder of such shares upon
     written request and without charge."

          9.2. NOTICE OF PROPOSED TRANSFER; OPINIONS OF COUNSEL. Prior to any
transfer of any Restricted Securities which are not registered under an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the holder thereof
will give written notice to the Company of such holder's intention to effect
such transfer and to comply in all other respects with this section 9.2. Each
such notice (a) shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed
transfer in sufficient detail to enable counsel to render the opinions referred
to below, and (b) shall designate counsel for the holder giving such notice (who
may be house counsel for such holder). The holder giving such notice will submit
a copy thereof to the counsel designated in such notice and the Company will
promptly submit a copy thereof to its counsel. The following provisions shall
then apply:

               (i)  If (A) in the opinion of such counsel for the holder the
          proposed transfer may be effected without registration of such
          Restricted Securities under the Securities Act, and (B) counsel for
          the Company shall not have rendered a reasoned written objection
          thereto within 15 days after the receipt by the Company of such
          written notice that such registration is required, such holder shall
          thereupon be entitled to transfer such securities in accordance with
          the terms of the notice delivered by such holder to the Company. Each
          warrant or certificate, if any, representing such securities issued
          upon or in connection with such transfer shall bear the appropriate
          restrictive legend required by section 9.1, unless in the opinion of
          each such counsel such legend is no longer required to insure
          compliance with the

                                       11
   12

          Securities Act.

               (ii) If in the opinion of either of or both such counsel the
          proposed transfer may not legally be effected without registration of
          such Restricted Securities under the Securities Act (such opinion or
          opinions to state the basis of the legal conclusions reached therein),
          the Company will promptly so notify the holder thereof and thereafter
          such holder shall not be entitled to transfer such Restricted
          Securities until either (x) receipt by the Company of a further notice
          from such holder pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this section
          9.2 and fulfillment of the provisions of clause (i) above or (y) such
          shares have been effectively registered under the Securities Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section 9.2(ii), Snoga, Inc.
shall be permitted to transfer any Restricted Securities to a limited number of
institutional investors, PROVIDED that (A) each such investor represents in
writing that it is acquiring such Restricted Securities for investment and not
with a view to the distribution thereof (subject, however, to any requirement of
law that the disposition thereof shall at all times be within the control of
such transferee), (B) each such investor agrees in writing to be bound by all
the restrictions on transfer of such Restricted Securities contained in this
section 9.2 and (C) Snoga, Inc. delivers to the Company an opinion of Skadden,
Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, or other counsel satisfactory to the Company,
stating that such transfer may be effected without registration under the
Securities Act. The Company will pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of
Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom or Hale & Dorr for any holder of Restricted
Securities and of counsel for the Company in connection with all opinions
rendered by them pursuant to this section 9.2 and pursuant to section 9.3;
provided that such opinions relate to the transfer of at least 1,284,685 shares
of Common Stock in the aggregate (subject to proportionate adjustment as
provided for hereunder) and that such shares will cease to constitute Restricted
Securities following such transfer for the purposes of this section 9.2 and
section 9.3.

          9.3. TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. The restrictions imposed by this
section 9 upon the transferability of Restricted Securities shall cease and
terminate as to any particular Restricted Securities (a) when such securities
shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act, or (b) when, in
the opinions of both counsel for the holder thereof and counsel for the Company,
such restrictions are no longer required in order to insure compliance with the
Securities Act. Whenever such restrictions shall cease and terminate as to any
Restricted Securities, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the
Company, without expense (other than applicable transfer taxes, if any), new
securities of like tenor not bearing the applicable legends required by section
9.1.

          10.  RESERVATION OF STOCK, ETC. The Company will at all times reserve
and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon exercise of the
Warrants, the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time
to time issuable upon exercise of all Warrants at the

                                       12
   13

time outstanding. All shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable upon
exercise of any Warrants shall be duly authorized and, when issued upon such
exercise, shall be validly issued and, in the case of shares, fully paid and
nonassessable with no liability on the part of the holders thereof.

          11.  REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF WARRANTS, ETC.

          11.1. WARRANT REGISTER; OWNERSHIP OF WARRANTS. The Company will keep
at the principal office of the Company or its transfer agent a register in which
the Company will provide for the registration of Warrants and the registration
of transfers of Warrants. The Company may treat the Person in whose name any
Warrant is registered on such register as the owner thereof for all other
purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary,
except that, if and when any Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company
may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer thereof as the owner of
such Warrant for all purposes. Subject to section 9, a Warrant, if properly
assigned, may be exercised by a new holder without a new Warrant first having
been issued.

          11.2. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF WARRANTS. Upon surrender of any Warrant
for registration of transfer or for exchange to the Company at its principal
office, the Company at its expense will (subject to compliance with section 9,
if applicable) execute and deliver in exchange therefor a new Warrant or
Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such holder or as such holder (upon
payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in
the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common
Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered.

          11.3. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any
Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of any Warrant,
upon delivery of an indemnity bond in such reasonable amount as the Company may
determine (or, in the case of any Warrant held by any Institutional Holder or
its nominee, of an indemnity agreement from such Institutional Holder reasonably
satisfactory to the Company), or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon the
surrender of such Warrant for cancellation to the Company at its principal
office, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a
new Warrant of like tenor.

          12.  REGISTRATION UNDER SECURITIES ACT, ETC.

          12.1. REGISTRATION ON REQUEST.

          (a)  REQUEST. On no more than three occasions upon the written request
     of one or more Initiating Holders, requesting that the Company effect the
     registration under the Securities Act of all or part of such Initiating
     Holders' Registerable Securities and specifying

                                       13
   14

     the intended method of disposition thereof, the Company will, subject to
     the terms of this Warrant, promptly give written notice of such requested
     registration to all registered holders of Registerable Securities, and
     thereupon the Company will effect the registration under the Securities Act
     of

               (i)  the Registerable Securities which the Company has been so
          requested to register by such Initiating Holders for disposition in
          accordance with the intended method of disposition stated in such
          request, and

               (ii) all other Registerable Securities the holders of which shall
          have made a written request to the Company for registration thereof
          within 30 days after the giving of such written notice by the Company
          (which request shall specify the intended method of disposition of
          such Registerable Securities),

all to the extent requisite to permit the disposition (in accordance with the
intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registerable Securities so to be
registered.

          (b)  REGISTRATION STATEMENT FORM. Registrations under this section
     12.1 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the Commission (i)
     as shall be selected by the Company and (ii) as shall permit the
     disposition of such Registerable Securities in accordance with the intended
     method or methods of disposition specified in their request for such
     registration. The Company agrees to include in any such registration
     statement all information which holders of Registerable Securities being
     registered shall reasonably request. If, in connection with any
     registration under this section 12.1 which is proposed by the Company to be
     on Form S-3 or any similar short form registration statement which is a
     successor to Form S-3, the managing underwriters, if any, shall advise the
     Company in writing that in their opinion the use of another permitted form
     is of material importance to the success of the offering, then such
     registration shall be on such other permitted form.

          (c)  EXPENSES. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in
     connection with any registration requested pursuant to this section 12.1 by
     any Initiating Holders of Registerable Securities prior to the time at
     which three such registrations shall have been effected in which all of the
     Registerable Securities requested to be included in such registration by
     any holders of Registerable Securities shall have been registered pursuant
     to this section 12.1. The Registration Expenses (and underwriting discounts
     and commissions and transfer taxes, if any) in connection with each other
     registration requested under this section 12.1 shall be allocated pro rata
     among all Persons on whose behalf securities of the Company are included in
     such registration, on the basis of the respective amounts of the securities
     then being registered on their behalf.

                                       14
   15

          (d)  EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT. A registration requested
     pursuant to this section 12.1 shall not be deemed to have been effected (i)
     unless a registration statement with respect thereto has become effective,
     PROVIDED that a registration which does not become effective after the
     Company has filed a registration statement with respect thereto solely by
     reason of the refusal to proceed of the Initiating Holders (other than a
     refusal to proceed based upon the advice of counsel relating to a matter
     with respect to the Company OR material adverse information concerning the
     business or financial condition of the Company which is made known to the
     Initiating Holders after the date on which such registration was requested)
     shall be deemed to have been effected by the Company at the request of such
     Initiating Holders unless the Initiating Holders shall have elected to pay
     all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration, (ii) if,
     after it has become effective, such registration becomes subject to any
     stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or
     other governmental agency or court for any reason, (provided that, in lieu
     of such registration not being deemed to have been effected, the Company
     may extend the registration period may be extended by the period of such
     stop order, injunction or other order, up to a maximum of ninety days) or
     (iii) the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or
     underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such registration
     are not satisfied, other than by reason of some act or omission by such
     Initiating Holders.

          (e)  SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS. If a requested registration pursuant
     to this section 12.1 involves an underwritten offering, the underwriter or
     underwriters thereof shall be selected by the holders of at least a
     majority (by number of shares) of the Registerable Securities as to which
     registration has been requested and shall be acceptable to the Company,
     which shall not unreasonably withhold its acceptance of any such
     underwriters.

          (f)  PRIORITY IN REQUESTED REGISTRATIONS. If a requested registration
     pursuant to this section 12.1 involves an underwritten offering, and the
     managing underwriter shall advise the Company in writing (with a copy to
     each holder of Registerable Securities requesting registration) that, in
     its opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such
     registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering within a
     price range acceptable to the holders of a majority of the Registerable
     Securities requested to be included in such registration, the Company will
     include in such registration, to the extent of the number which the Company
     is so advised can be sold in such offering, Registerable Securities
     requested to be included in such registration by the holder or holders of
     Registerable Securities, PRO RATA among the holders thereof requesting such
     registration on the basis of the number of such securities requested to be
     included by such holders. In connection with any such registration, no
     securities other than Registerable Securities shall be covered by such
     registration.

                                       15
   16

          (g)  If at the time of any request to register Registerable Securities
     by any holder, pursuant to this Section 12.1, the Company is engaged or has
     plans to engage in a registered public offering or is engaged in any other
     activity which, in the good faith determination of the Company's Board of
     Directors, would be adversely affected by the requested registration, then
     the Company may at its option direct, upon no less than five days prior
     written notice, that such request be delayed for a period not in excess of
     90 days from the date of the expiration of such notice, such right to delay
     a request to be exercised by the Company not more than once in any 12-month
     period.

          12.2. INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION.

          (a)  RIGHT TO INCLUDE REGISTERABLE SECURITIES. If the Company at any
     time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act
     (other than by a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor or
     similar forms and other than pursuant to section 12.1), whether or not for
     sale for its own account, it will each such time give prompt written notice
     to all holders of Registerable Securities of its intention to do so and of
     such holders' rights under this section 12.2. Upon the written request of
     any such holder made within fifteen days after the receipt of any such
     notice (which request shall specify the Registerable Securities intended to
     be disposed of by such holder and the intended method of disposition
     thereof), the Company will, subject to the terms of this Warrant, effect
     the registration under the Securities Act of all Registerable Securities
     which the Company has been so requested to register by the holders thereof,
     to the extent requisite to permit the disposition (in accordance with the
     intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registerable Securities so to
     be registered, by inclusion of such Registerable Securities in the
     registration statement which covers the securities which the Company
     proposes to register, PROVIDED that if, at any time after giving written
     notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the
     effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such
     registration, the Company shall determine for any reason either not to
     register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at
     its election, give written notice of such determination to each holder of
     Registerable Securities and, thereupon, (I) in the case of a determination
     not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any
     Registerable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from
     its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith),
     without prejudice, however, to the rights of any holder or holders of
     Registerable Securities entitled to do so to request that such registration
     be effected as a registration under section 12.1, and (II) in the case of a
     determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay registering
     any Registerable Securities, for the same period as the delay in
     registering such other securities. No registration effected under this
     section 12.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect any
     registration upon request under section 12.1 nor shall any such
     registration hereunder be deemed to have been effected pursuant to section
     12.1. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in

                                       16
   17

     connection with each registration of Registerable Securities requested
     pursuant to this section 12.2.

          (b)  PRIORITY IN INCIDENTAL REGISTRATIONS. If (i) a registration
     pursuant to this section 12.2 involves an underwritten offering of the
     securities so being registered, whether or not for sale for the account of
     the Company, to be distributed (on a firm commitment basis) by or through
     one or more underwriters of recognized standing under underwriting terms
     appropriate for such a transaction, (ii) the Registerable Securities so
     requested to be registered for sale for the account of holders of
     Registerable Securities are not also to be included in such underwritten
     offering (either because the Company has not been requested so to include
     such Registerable Securities pursuant to section 12.4(b) or, if requested
     to do so, is not obligated to do so under section 12.4(b)), and (iii) the
     managing underwriter of such underwritten offering shall inform the Company
     and holders of the Registerable Securities requesting such registration by
     letter of its belief that the distribution of all or a specified number of
     such Registerable Securities concurrently with the securities being
     distributed by such underwriters would interfere with the successful
     marketing of the securities being distributed by such underwriters (such
     writing to state the basis of such belief and the approximate number of
     such Registerable Securities which may be distributed without such effect),
     then the Company may, upon written notice to all holders of such
     Registerable Securities, reduce PRO RATA (if and to the extent stated by
     such managing underwriter to be necessary to eliminate such effect) the
     number of such Registerable Securities the registration of which shall have
     been requested by each holder of Registerable Securities so that the
     resultant aggregate number of such Registerable Securities so included in
     such registration shall be equal to the number of shares stated in such
     managing underwriter's letter.

          12.3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. If and whenever the Company is required
to effect the registration of any Registerable Securities under the Securities
Act as provided in sections 12.1 and 12.2 the Company shall promptly:

               (i)  prepare and (within sixty days after the end of the period
          within which requests for registration may be given to the Company or
          in any event as soon thereafter as possible) (in the case of a
          registration pursuant to section 12.1, such filing to be made within
          sixty days after the initial request of one or more Initiating Holders
          of Registerable Securities or in any event as soon thereafter as
          possible) file with the Commission the requisite registration
          statement to effect such registration (including such audited
          financial statements as may be required by the Securities Act or the
          rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) and thereafter use its
          reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become
          and remain effective, PROVIDED, however, that the Company may
          discontinue any registration of its

                                       17
   18

          securities which are not Registerable Securities (and, under the
          circumstances specified in section 12.2(a), its securities which are
          Registerable Securities) at any time prior to the effective date of
          the registration statement relating thereto;

               (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
          supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
          connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration
          statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the
          Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities
          covered by such registration statement until such time as all of such
          securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended
          methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in
          such registration statement or (i) in the case of a registration
          pursuant to section 12.1, the expiration of 180 days after such
          registration statement becomes effective, or (ii) in the case of a
          registration pursuant to section 12.2, the expiration of 90 days after
          such registration statement becomes effective;

               (iii) furnish to each seller of Registerable Securities covered
          by such registration statement and each underwriter, if any, of the
          securities being sold by such seller such number of conformed copies
          of such registration statement and of each such amendment and
          supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number
          of copies of the prospectus contained in such registration statement
          (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and
          any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act, in
          conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other
          documents, as such seller and underwriter, if any, may reasonably
          request;

               (iv) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify all
          Registerable Securities and other securities covered by such
          registration statement under such other securities laws or blue sky
          laws of such jurisdictions as any seller thereof and any underwriter
          of the securities being sold by such seller shall reasonably request,
          to keep such registrations or qualifications in effect for so long as
          such registration statement remains in effect, and take any other
          action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such
          seller and underwriter to consummate the disposition in such
          jurisdictions of the securities owned by such seller, except that the
          Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify
          generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction
          wherein it would not but for the requirements of this subdivision (iv)
          be obligated to be so qualified, to subject itself to taxation in any
          such jurisdiction or to consent to general service of process in any
          such jurisdiction;

               (v)  use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registerable
          Securities covered

                                       18
   19

          by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by
          such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to
          enable the seller or sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of
          such Registerable Securities;

               (vi) use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to each seller of
          Registerable Securities a signed counterpart, addressed to such seller
          and the underwriters, if any of

          (x)  an opinion of counsel for the Company, dated the effective date
     of such registration statement (or, if such registration includes an
     underwritten public offering, an opinion dated the date of the closing
     under the underwriting agreement), reasonably satisfactory in form and
     substance to such seller, and

          (y)  a "comfort" letter (or, in the case of such Person which does not
     satisfy the conditions for receipt of a "comfort" letter specified in
     Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72, an "agreed upon procedures"
     letter), dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if
     such registration includes an underwritten public offering, a letter dated
     the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), signed by the
     independent public accountants who have certified the Company's financial
     statements included in such registration statement,

covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration
statement (and the prospectus included therein) and, in the case of the
accountants' letter, with respect to events subsequent to the date of such
financial statements, as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel
and in accountants' letters delivered to the underwriters in underwritten public
offerings of securities (with, in the case of an "agreed upon procedures"
letter, such modifications or deletions as may be required under Statement on
Auditing Standards No. 35) and, in the case of the accountants' letter, such
other financial matters, and, in the case of the legal opinion, such other legal
matters, as such seller (or the underwriters, if any) may reasonably request;

               (vii) notify the holders of Registerable Securities and the
          managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, promptly and confirm
          such advice in writing promptly thereafter:

          (v)  when the registration statement, the prospectus or any prospectus
supplement related thereto or post-effective amendment to the registration
statement has been filed, and, with respect to the registration statement or any
post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective;

          (w)  of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to
the registration statement or the prospectus or for additional information;

                                       19
   20

          (x)  of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the registration statement or the initiation of any
proceedings by any Person for that purpose;

          (y)  if at any time the representations and warranties of the Company
made as contemplated by section 12.4 below cease to be true and correct;

          (z)  of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to
the suspension of the qualification of any Registerable Securities for sale
under the securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction or the initiation or
threat of any proceeding for such purpose;

               (viii) notify each seller of Registerable Securities covered by
          such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating
          thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon the
          Company's discovery that, or upon the happening of any event 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 the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the
          request of any such seller promptly prepare and furnish to such seller
          and each underwriter, if any, 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 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 the light
          of the circumstances then existing;

               (ix) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable
          rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its
          security holders, 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 full calendar month
          after the effective date of such registration statement, which
          earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of
          the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder, and will furnish to each
          such seller prior to the filing thereof a copy of any amendment or
          supplement to such registration statement or prospectus and shall not
          file any thereof to which any such seller shall have reasonably
          objected on the grounds that such amendment or supplement does not
          comply in all material respects with the requirements of the
          Securities Act or of the rules or regulations thereunder;

               (x)  make available for inspection by a representative or
          representatives of the holders of Registerable Securities any
          underwriter participating in any disposition

                                       20
   21

          pursuant to the registration statement and any attorney or accountant
          retained by such selling holders or underwriter (each, an
          "INSPECTOR"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate
          documents and properties of the Company (the "RECORDS"), and cause the
          Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information
          reasonably requested by any such Inspector in connection with such
          registration in order to permit a reasonable investigation within the
          meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act, PROVIDED that the Company
          shall not be required to comply with this subdivision (xi) if there is
          a reasonable likelihood, in the judgment of the Company, that such
          delivery could result in the loss of any attorney-client privilege
          related thereto; and PROVIDED FURTHER that Records which the Company
          determines, in good faith, to be confidential and which it notifies
          the Inspectors are confidential shall not be disclosed by the
          Inspectors (other than to any holder of Registerable Securities)
          unless (x) such Records have become generally available to the public
          or (y) the disclosure of such Records may be necessary or appropriate
          (A) in compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable
          to any such Inspectors or holder of Registerable Securities, (B) in
          response to any subpoena or other legal process or (C) in connection
          with any litigation to which such Inspectors or any holder of
          Registerable Securities is a party;

               (xi) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and
          registrar for all Registerable Securities covered by such registration
          statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of
          such registration statement;

               (xii) take such other actions as sellers of such Registerable
          Securities holding 51% of the shares so to be sold shall reasonably
          request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such
          Registerable Securities;

               (xiii) use its best efforts to list all Registerable Securities
          covered by such registration statement on any securities exchange on
          which any of the securities of the same class as the Registerable
          Securities are then listed; and

               (xiv) use its best efforts to provide a CUSIP number for the
          Registerable Securities, not later than the effective date of the
          registration statement.

The Company may require each seller of Registerable Securities as to which any
registration is being effected to furnish the Company such information regarding
such seller and the distribution of such securities as the Company may from time
to time reasonably request in writing.

          Each holder of Registerable Securities shall be deemed to have agreed
by acquisition of such Registerable Securities that, upon receipt of any notice
from the Company of the occurrence

                                       21
   22

of any event of the kind described in subdivision (vii) or (viii) of this
section 12.3, such holder will forthwith discontinue such holder's disposition
of Registerable Securities pursuant to the registration statement relating to
such Registerable Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subdivision (vii) of this
section 12.3 and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company (at
the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in
such holder's possession of the prospectus relating to such Registerable
Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

          In the event that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, it is
necessary or advisable to suspend use of a prospectus included in a Registration
Statement due to pending material developments or other material events that
have not yet been publicly disclosed and as to which the Company believes public
disclosure would be detrimental to the Company, the Company shall notify all
sellers of Registerable Securities to such effect, and upon receipt of such
notice, each such seller of Registerable Securities shall promptly discontinue
any sales of Registerable Securities pursuant to Registration Statement until
such seller of Registerable Securities has received copies of a supplemented or
amended prospectus or until such seller of Registerable Securities is advised in
writing by the Company that the current prospectus may be used and has received
copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed
incorporated by reference in such prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, the Company shall not exercise its rights under this paragraph
to suspend sales of Registerable Securities for a period in excess of ninety
days in any 365 day-period.

          If any such registration or comparable statement refers to any holder
of Registerable Securities by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities
of the Company then such holder shall have the right to require (i) the
insertion therein of language, in form and substance satisfactory to such
holder, to the effect that the holding by such holder of such securities is not
to be construed as a recommendation by such holder of the investment quality of
the Company's securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply
that such holder will assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the
Company, or (ii) in the event that such reference to such holder by name or
otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute
then in force, the deletion of the reference to such holder.

          12.4. UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS.

          (a)  REQUESTED UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. If requested by the
     underwriters for any underwritten offering by holders of Registerable
     Securities pursuant to a registration requested under section 12.1, the
     Company will enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters
     for such offering, such agreement to be satisfactory in substance and form
     to the Company, each such holder and the underwriters, and to contain such
     representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms as are
     generally prevailing in agreements

                                       22
   23

     of this type, including, without limitation, indemnities to the effect and
     to the extent provided in section 12.7. The holders of the Registerable
     Securities will cooperate with the Company in the negotiation of the
     underwriting agreement and will give consideration to the reasonable
     suggestions of the Company regarding the form thereof, PROVIDED that
     nothing herein contained shall diminish the foregoing obligations of the
     Company. The holders of Registerable Securities to be distributed by such
     underwriters shall be parties to such underwriting agreement and may, at
     their option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties
     by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the
     benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of
     such holders of Registerable Securities and that any or all of the
     conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such
     underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations of such
     holders of Registerable Securities. Any such holder of Registerable
     Securities shall not be required to make any representations or warranties
     to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than
     representations and warranties contained in a writing furnished by such
     holder expressly for use in such registration statement, customary
     representations and warranties contained in the relevant underwriting
     agreement, or agreements regarding such holder, such holder's Registerable
     Securities and such holder's intended method of distribution and any other
     representation required by law.

          (b)  INCIDENTAL UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. If the Company at any time
     proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act as
     contemplated by section 12.2 and such securities are to be distributed by
     or through one or more underwriters, the Company will, if requested by any
     holder of Registerable Securities as provided in section 12.2 and subject
     to the provisions of section 12.2(b), use its best efforts to arrange for
     such underwriters to include all the Registerable Securities to be offered
     and sold by such holder among the securities to be distributed by such
     underwriters, PROVIDED that if the managing underwriter of such
     underwritten offering shall inform the holders of the Registerable
     Securities requesting such registration and the holders of any other
     securities which shall have exercised, in respect of such underwritten
     offering, registration rights comparable to the rights under section 12.2
     by letter of its belief that inclusion in such underwritten distribution of
     all or a specified number of such Registerable Securities or of such other
     shares of securities so requested to be included would interfere with the
     successful marketing of the securities (other than such Registerable
     Securities and other shares of securities so requested to be included) by
     the underwriters (such writing to state the basis of such belief and the
     approximate number of such Registerable Securities and shares of other
     securities so requested to be included which may be included in such
     underwritten offering without such effect), then the Company may, upon
     written notice to all holders of such Registerable Securities and of such
     other shares of securities so requested to be included, exclude pro rata
     from such underwritten offering (if and to the extent stated by such
     managing underwriter to be necessary to eliminate such effect) the number
     of such Registerable Securities and shares of such other securities so

                                       23
   24

     requested to be included the registration of which shall have been
     requested by each holder of Registerable Securities and by the holders of
     such other so that the resultant aggregate number of such Registerable
     Securities and of such other shares of securities so requested to be
     included which are included in such underwritten offering shall be equal to
     the approximate number of shares stated in such managing underwriter's
     letter. The holders of Registerable Securities to be distributed by such
     underwriters shall be parties to the underwriting agreement between the
     Company and such underwriters and may, at their option, require that any or
     all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on
     the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters shall
     also be made to and for the benefit of such holders of Registerable
     Securities and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the
     obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be
     conditions precedent to the obligations of such holders of Registerable
     Securities. Any such holder of Registerable Securities shall not be
     required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with
     the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or
     agreements regarding such holder, such holder's Registerable Securities and
     such holder's intended method of distribution and any other representation
     required by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
     in the event that any terms of this Section 12 are inconsistent with or
     conflict with the terms of the proviso to Section 5.01(b) of the Warrant
     Agreement dated as of September 3, 1998 between the Company and American
     Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the "UNIT AGREEMENT"), the terms of the
     Unit Agreement shall govern and the terms hereof shall be deemed to be
     amended insofar as is necessary to resolve such inconsistency or conflict.

          (c)  CONFIDENTIALITY. Any holder receiving any written notice from the
Company regarding the Company's plans to file a Registration Statement shall
treat such notice confidentially and shall not disclose such information to any
person other than as necessary to exercise its rights under this Warrant.

          (d)  PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. No Person may
participate in any underwritten offering hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees
to sell such Person's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, by the
holders of a majority of Registerable Securities to be included in such
underwritten offering and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires,
indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents (other than powers of
attorney) required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no underwriting agreement (or other agreement in
connection with such offering) shall require any holder of Registerable
Securities to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the
Company or the underwriters other than representations and warranties contained
in a writing furnished by such holder expressly for use in the related
registration statement, customary representations or warranties contained in the
relevant underwriting agreement, or agreements regarding such holder, such
holder's Registerable Securities

                                       24
   25

and such holder's intended method of distribution and any other representation
required by law.

          12.5. PREPARATION; REASONABLE INVESTIGATION. In connection with the
preparation and filing of each registration statement under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Warrant, the Company will give the holders of Registerable
Securities registered under such registration statement, their underwriters, if
any, and their respective counsel and accountants, the opportunity to
participate in the preparation of such registration statement, each prospectus
included therein or filed with the Commission, and each amendment thereof or
supplement thereto, and will give each of them such access to its books and
records and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its
officers and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial
statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of such holders' and such
underwriters' respective counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation within
the meaning of the Securities Act, provided that the Company shall not be
required to comply with this section 12.5 if there is a reasonable likelihood,
in the judgment of the Company, that such delivery could result in the loss of
any attorney-client privilege related thereto; and provided further that Records
which the Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and which it
notifies the holders of Registerable Securities are confidential shall not be
disclosed by the holders of Registerable Securities unless (x) such Records have
become generally available to the public or (y) the disclosure of such Records
may be necessary or appropriate (A) in compliance with any law, rule, regulation
or order applicable to any such holder of Registerable Securities, (B) in
response to any subpoena or other legal process or (C) in connection with any
litigation to which any such holder of Registerable Securities is a party.

          12.6. INDEMNIFICATION.

          (a)  INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY. In the event of any registration
     of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, the Company
     will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless in the case of any
     registration statement filed pursuant to section 12.1 or 12.2, the holder
     of any Registerable Securities covered by such registration statement, its
     directors and officers, each other Person who participates as an
     underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities and each other
     Person, if any, who controls such holder or any such underwriter within the
     meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
     liabilities, joint or several, to which such holder or any such director or
     officer or underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the
     Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
     liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in
     respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
     alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration
     statement under which such securities were registered under the Securities
     Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus
     contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission
     or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
     therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the
     Company

                                       25
   26

     will reimburse such holder and each such director, officer, underwriter and
     controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred
     by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
     liability, action or proceeding, PROVIDED that the Company shall not be
     liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage,
     liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises
     out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
     omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such
     preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or
     supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
     furnished to the Company through an instrument duly executed by such holder
     specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof and,
     PROVIDED, FURTHER that the Company shall not be liable to any Person who
     participates as an underwriter, in the offering or sale of Registerable
     Securities or to any other Person, if any, who controls such underwriter
     within the meaning of the Securities Act, in any such case to the extent
     that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in
     respect thereof) or expense arises out of such Person's failure to send or
     give a copy of the final prospectus, as the same may be then supplemented
     or amended, within the time required by the Securities Act to the Person
     asserting an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
     alleged omission at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of
     Registerable Securities to such Person if such statement or omission was
     corrected in such final prospectus. Such indemnity shall remain in full
     force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
     such holder or any such director, officer, underwriter or controlling
     person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such holder.

          (b)  INDEMNIFICATION BY THE SELLERS. The Company may require, as a
     condition to including any Registerable Securities in any registration
     statement filed pursuant to section 12.3, that the Company shall have
     received an undertaking satisfactory to it from the prospective seller of
     such Registerable Securities, to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same
     manner and to the same extent as set forth in subdivision (a) of this
     section 12.6) the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of
     the Company and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within
     the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any statement or alleged
     statement in or omission or alleged omission from such registration
     statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary
     prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if
     such statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was
     made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
     to the Company through an instrument duly executed by such seller
     specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation of such
     registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary
     prospectus, amendment or supplement. Any such indemnity shall remain in
     full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf
     of the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person and
     shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller.

                                       26
   27

          (c)  NOTICES OF CLAIMS, ETC. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified
     party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a
     claim referred to in the preceding subdivisions of this section 12.6 and
     subdivision (f) below, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect
     thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to
     the latter of the commencement of such action, PROVIDED that the failure of
     any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve
     the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding subdivisions
     of this section 12.6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is
     actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action
     is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party's
     reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and
     indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying
     party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense
     thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to
     the extent that the indemnifying party may wish, with counsel reasonably
     satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the
     indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume
     the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such
     indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by
     the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
     costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of
     the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
     settlement of any such action which does not include as an unconditional
     term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified
     party of a release from all liability, or a covenant not to sue, in respect
     to such claim or litigation. No indemnified party shall consent to entry of
     any judgment or enter into any settlement of any action for which indemnity
     is required to be provided by an indemnifying party hereunder without the
     consent of such indemnifying party; in no event shall the indemnifying
     party be required to pay the expenses of more than one law firm per
     jurisdiction as counsel for the indemnified party. The provisions of this
     subsection (c) shall also apply to a contribution pursuant to subsection
     (f) below.

          (d)  OTHER INDEMNIFICATION. Indemnification similar to that specified
     in the preceding subdivisions of this section 12.6 (with appropriate
     modifications) shall be given by the Company and each seller of
     Registerable Securities with respect to any required registration or other
     qualification of securities under any Federal or state law or regulation of
     any governmental authority, other than the Securities Act.

          (e)  INDEMNIFICATION PAYMENTS. The indemnification required by this
     section 12.6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof
     during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are
     received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred.

                                       27

          (f)  CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in the
     preceding subdivisions of this section 12.6 is unavailable to an
     indemnified party in respect of any expense, loss, claim, damage or
     liability referred to therein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of
     indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or
     payable by such indemnified party as a result of such expense, loss, claim,
     damage or liability (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
     relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the holder or
     underwriter, as the case may be, on the other from the distribution of the
     Registerable Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i)
     above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
     appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause
     (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of
     the holder or underwriter, as the case may be, on the other in connection
     with the statements or omissions which resulted in such expense, loss,
     damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable
     considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of
     the holder or underwriter, as the case may be, on the other shall be
     determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
     alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material
     fact relates to information supplied by the Company, by the holder or by
     the underwriter and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
     information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
     omission, PROVIDED that the foregoing contribution agreement shall not
     inure to the benefit of any indemnified party if indemnification would be
     unavailable to such indemnified party by reason of the provisions contained
     in the first sentence of subdivision (a) of this section 12.6, and in no
     event shall the obligation of any indemnifying party to contribute under
     this subdivision (f) exceed the amount that such indemnifying party would
     have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the indemnification
     provided for under subdivisions (a) or (b) of this section 12.6 had been
     available under the circumstances.

          The Company and the holders of Registerable Securities agree that it
     would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
     subdivision (f) were determined by PRO RATA allocation (even if the holders
     and any underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any
     other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable
     considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The
     amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
     claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding
     paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
     in the preceding sentence and subdivision (c) of this section 12.6, 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 subdivision (f), no holder of
     Registerable Securities or underwriter shall be required to contribute any
     amount in excess of the amount by which (i) in the case of any such holder,
     the net proceeds received by such holder from the

                                       28
   29

     sale of Registerable Securities or (ii) in the case of an underwriter, the
     total price at which the Registerable Securities purchased by it and
     distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds, in any such
     case, the amount of any damages that such holder or underwriter has
     otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
     statement or omission. 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.
