     This Amendment No. 3 ("Amendment No. 3") to that certain statement on
Schedule 13D of Warburg Pincus Private Equity VIII, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership ("WP VIII"), Warburg Pincus LLC, a New York limited liability
company ("WP LLC") and Warburg, Pincus & Co., a New York general partnership
("WP," and together with WP VIII and WP LLC, the "Reporting Persons") filed on
October 3, 2001 (the "Original Statement") and amended on October 17, 2001 and
February 4, 2002 (the "Amended Statements" and together with the Original
Statement, the "Statement") hereby amends and restates the Statement as
provided herein. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall
have the meanings set forth in the Statement. This Amendment is being filed to
reflect the exercise by WP VIII of a warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of
Series A Preferred Stock and the issuance to WP VIII of a warrant to purchase
2,500,000 shares of Common Stock.

     Items 3 and 5 of the Statement are hereby amended and restated in their
entirety as follows:

     Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

     Pursuant to the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase
Agreement") attached hereto as Exhibit 2, dated as of September 23, 2001, by
and between WP VIII, the Company and certain other investors named in the
Schedule of Purchasers to the Purchase Agreement, (1) WP VIII purchased
1,000,000 shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A
Preferred Stock") at a price of $10 per share, with the purchase price paid in
cash on October 9, 2001 (the "Closing Date"); (2) the Company issued to WP VIII
two warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 additional shares of
Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $10 per share in cash, which warrants
are exercisable for up to one year after the Closing Date in certain
circumstances, in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit 3 ("Preferred Stock
Warrants"); (3) the Company issued to WP VIII a warrant to purchase up to
5,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.00 per share in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit 4 ("Common Stock Warrant") and (4) the Company
agreed to grant to WP VIII additional Common Stock Warrants to purchase that
number of shares of Common Stock equal to 25% of the number of shares of Common
Stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued upon exercise of
the Preferred Stock Warrants are convertible, at the time such Preferred Stock
Warrants are exercised. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will be
convertible into Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $0.50, or at an
initial conversion rate of 20 shares of Common Stock for each share of Series A
Preferred Stock converted, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the
Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, attached
hereto as Exhibit 5 (the "Certificate of Designation").

     On March 25, 2002, WP VIII exercised a Preferred Stock Warrant to purchase
500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the "March 25 Preferred Stock
Warrant") at a price of $10 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of
$5,000,000. In connection with the exercise and pursuant to the terms of the
Purchase Agreement, the Company issued WP VIII a new Common Stock Warrant to
purchase 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per
share, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 4.

     The total amount of funds used to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the March 25 Preferred Stock Warrant was
$15,000,000 and was furnished from the working capital of WP VIII. If WP VIII
elects to exercise the remaining Preferred Stock Warrant in full, the total
amount of funds that will be required to purchase the additional shares of
Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon such exercise will be $5,000,000, which
will be furnished from the working capital of WP VIII. If WP VIII elects to
exercise the Common Stock Warrants in full for cash, the total amount of funds
that will be required to purchase the Common Stock pursuant to such warrants
will be $7,500,000 ($10,000,000 if the remaining Preferred Stock Warrant is
exercised in full), which will be provided from the working capital of WP VIII.
However, the Common Stock Warrants provide WP VIII the option to convert such
warrants on a cashless basis by electing to have the Company withhold a number
of shares otherwise issuable upon exercise of the Warrants that is equal in
value at the time of conversion to the aggregate exercise price of the Common
Stock Warrants. WP VIII has not made any determination as to whether it would
exercise the Common Stock Warrants, if at all, either for cash or on a cashless
basis. Except as otherwise expressly stated, all shares are reported on a
common stock equivalent basis, assuming that all warrants issued or issuable
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement are exercised in full for cash.





     Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     (a) Assuming (i) exercise of the remaining Preferred Stock Warrant issued
to WP VIII; (ii) full conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock
issued to WP VIII at the closing and upon exercise of the March 25 Preferred
Stock Warrant and issuable pursuant to the remaining Preferred Stock Warrant
and (iii) full exercise for cash of all Common Stock Warrants issued to WP VIII
at the closing and upon exercise of the March 25 Preferred Stock Warrant and
issuable upon exercise of the remaining Preferred Stock Warrant, WP VIII may be
deemed to beneficially own 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, representing
approximately 52.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, based on the
44,729,867 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of January 31, 2002 (which
number was represented by the Company in its 10-Q filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on February 14, 2002), calculated in accordance with Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act. By reason of their respective relationships with
WP VIII and each other, each of the other Reporting Persons may also be deemed
under Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act to own beneficially 50,000,000 shares
of Common Stock, representing approximately 52.7% of the outstanding Common
Stock. Until such time as the Common Stock Warrant and the Preferred Stock
Warrants are exercised, the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of
any shares of Common Stock issuable thereon.

     One Member and Managing Director of WP LLC and Partner of WP owns
approximately 3,298 shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons expressly
disclaim beneficial ownership of these shares.

     (b) WP and WP LLC share with WP VIII the power to vote or to direct the
vote and to dispose or to direct the disposition of the 50,003,298 shares of
Common Stock it may be deemed to beneficially own.

     The Reporting Persons are making this single, joint filing because they
may be deemed to constitute a "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of
the Exchange Act. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of all
shares of Common Stock, other than those reported herein as being owned by it.

     (c) Other than as set forth in Item 4 hereof, no transactions in the
Common Stock were effected during the last sixty days by the Reporting Persons
or any of the persons set forth on Schedule I or in Item 2(d) hereto.

     (d) Except as set forth in this Item 5, no person other than each
respective record owner referred to herein of securities is known to have the

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.
THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE
OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.


                                    WARRANT
                     To Purchase Shares of Common Stock of
                             Evolve Software, Inc.

                                                                   Number:_____

THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received Warburg Pincus Private Equity VIII,
L.P., is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set
forth, to purchase from Evolve Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's
Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock") at the purchase price
per share as set forth in Section 1 below ("Exercise Price"). The number of
shares and Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10
hereof.

      Section 1.   Number of Shares; Exercise Price; Term.

      1.1  Subject to adjustments as provided herein, this Warrant is
           exercisable for up to 2,500,000 shares (the "Shares") of the
           Company's Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of
           $2,500,000, or a purchase price of $1.00 per share.

      1.2  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, this Warrant
           shall be exercisable during the term commencing on the date hereof
           and ending on the seventh anniversary of the date of this Warrant,
           and shall be void thereafter.

      Section 2.   Title to Warrant. This Warrant and all rights hereunder are
        transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the
        Company by the holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney,
        upon surrender of this Warrant together with the Assignment Form
        annexed hereto properly endorsed.

      Section 3.   Exercise or Conversion of Warrant.

      3.1  The purchase rights represented by this Warrant are exercisable by
           the registered holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any time, or
           from time to time, during the term hereof as described in Section l
           above, by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise
           or Conversion annexed hereto duly completed and executed on behalf
           of the holder hereof, at the office of the Company in Emeryville,
           California (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may
           designate by notice in writing to the registered holder hereof at
           the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company),
           and subject to Section 3.2 hereof, upon payment of the purchase
           price of the shares thereby purchased in cash or check acceptable to
           the Company, whereupon the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled
           to receive a certificate for the number of shares so purchased and,
           if this Warrant is converted in part, a new Warrant for the
           remaining portion of this Warrant.

      3.2  Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair
           Market Value (as hereinafter defined) is greater than the Exercise
           Price (at the date of calculation, as set forth below), in lieu of
           exercising this Warrant as hereinabove permitted, the holder may
           elect to convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into shares of
           Common Stock equal to the value (as determined below) of the
           exercised portion of this Warrant by surrender of such portion of
           this Warrant for conversion at the office of the Company referred to
           in Section 3.1 above, together with the Notice of Exercise or
           Conversion, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder
           that number of shares of Common Stock computed using the formula
           below and, if this Warrant is converted in part, a new Warrant for
           the remaining portion of this Warrant.









                                                CS = WCS x (FMV-EP)
                                                        FMV
Where, for purposes of this Section 3.2

      CS      equals the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the
              holder

      WCS     equals the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the
              Warrant which are to be converted by the holder

      FMV     equals the Market Price, as defined in Section 10, of one share of
              the Company's Common Stock

      EP      equals the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such
              calculation).

      3.3  The Company agrees that, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant
           in accordance with the terms hereof, the shares so purchased shall
           be deemed to be issued to such holder as the record owner of such
           shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant
           shall have been exercised or converted. The parties intend that in
           the event this Warrant is converted into shares of Common Stock
           pursuant to Section 3.2 above, the holder be entitled to "tack" the
           holding period of this Warrant to the holding period of the shares
           issued upon such conversion for purposes of the holding period
           requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
           amended (the "Securities Act"). Certificates for shares purchased
           hereunder and, on partial exercise or conversion of this Warrant, a
           new Warrant for the unexercised portion of this Warrant shall be
           delivered to the holder hereof as promptly as practicable after the
           date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised or converted.

      3.4  The Company covenants that all shares which may be issued upon the
           exercise of rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise
           of the rights represented by this Warrant and payment of the
           Exercise Price or surrender of the appropriate number of Shares, be
           fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and
           charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect
           of any transfer occurring contemporaneously or otherwise specified
           herein).

      3.5  The Company will reserve and keep available free from preemptive
           rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock,
           the full number of Shares deliverable upon the exercise of this
           Warrant in full. The Company or, if appointed, a transfer agent (a
           "Transfer Agent") will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all
           times to reserve such number of authorized shares of Common Stock as
           are required for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this
           Warrant on file with each Transfer Agent. The Company will furnish
           such Transfer Agent with a copy of all notices of adjustments and
           certificates related thereto which are transmitted to the holder
           pursuant to Section 11 hereof.

      Section 4.  No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
           representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise or
           conversion of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional share to which
           such holder would otherwise be entitled, such holder shall be
           entitled, at its option, to receive either (i) a cash payment equal
           to the excess of fair market value for such fractional share above
           the Exercise Price for such fractional share (as mutually determined
           by the Company and the holder) or (ii) a whole share if the holder
           tenders the Exercise Price for one whole share.

      Section 5.  Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for
        shares upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant shall be made
        without charge to the holder hereof for any issue or transfer tax or
        other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such
        certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the
        Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the
        holder of this Warrant or in such name or names as may be directed by
        the holder of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event
        certificates for shares are to be issued in a name other than the name
        of the holder of this Warrant, this Warrant when surrendered for
        exercise or conversion shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form
        attached hereto duly executed by the holder hereof and the Notice of
        Exercise or Conversion duly completed and executed and stating in whose
        name and certificates are to be issued; and provided further, that such
        assignment shall be subject to applicable laws and regulations. Upon
        any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates
        for shares of the Company's securities, the Company may require, as a
        condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for
        any transfer tax incidental thereto.







      Section 6.  No Rights as Shareholders. This Warrant does not entitle the
        holder hereof to any voting rights, dividend rights or other rights as
        a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise or conversion
        hereof.

      Section 7.  Exchange and Registry of Warrant. The Company shall maintain a
        registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this
        Warrant. This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange, transfer,
        exercise or conversion in accordance with its terms, at the office of
        the Company, and the Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects,
        prior to written notice to the contrary, upon such registry.

      Section 8.  Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon

        receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of
        the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in
        case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security
        reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon reimbursement to the Company
        of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and
        cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will make and
        deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such
        cancellation, in lieu of this Warrant.

      Section 9.  Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed
        day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right
        required or granted herein shall be a Saturday or a Sunday or shall
        be a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may
        be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday or a Sunday or
        a legal holiday.

      Section 10.  Adjustment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price and the
        number of Warrant Shares issuable on Exercise of each Warrant are
        subject to adjustment from time to time as described in this Section
        10. All calculations under this Section 10 will be made to the nearest
        one-hundredth of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as
        the case may be.

      10.1 Antidilution Adjustments.  Subject to Section 10.3, the following
           adjustments shall be made:

      (a)  Common Stock Issued at Less than Market Value. If the Company issues
           or sells any Common Stock other than Excluded Stock (as defined in
           Section 10.4) without consideration or for consideration per share
           less than the Market Price (as defined in Section 10.4) (provided,
           however, that no sale of securities pursuant to a bona fide
           underwritten public offering will be deemed to be for less than
           Market Price), as of the day of such issuance or sale, the Exercise
           Price in effect immediately prior to each such issuance or sale will
           immediately (except as provided below) be reduced to the price
           determined by multiplying the Exercise Price, in effect immediately
           prior to such issuance or sale, by a fraction, (x) the numerator of
           which shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
           issued and outstanding immediately prior to such issue, (ii) the
           number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares
           of Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue,
           (iii)the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
           outstanding in-the-money Options and conversion of outstanding
           in-the-money Convertible Securities prior to such issue and (iv) 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 the
           Market Price on the last trading day immediately preceding such
           issuance or sale and (y) the denominator of which shall be (i) the
           number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately
           prior to such issue, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock
           issuable upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock outstanding
           immediately prior to such issue, (iii)the number of shares of Common
           Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding in-the-money Options and
           conversion of outstanding in-the-money Convertible Securities prior
           to such issue, and (iv) the number of shares of Common Stock so
           issued or sold. In such event, the number of Shares issuable upon
           the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number
           obtained by dividing (x) the product of (A) the number of Shares
           issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment,
           and (B) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the
           issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise
           Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding
           sentence. For the purposes of any adjustment of the Exercise Price
           and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant
           pursuant to this Section 10.1(a), the following provisions shall be
           applicable:

      (1)  In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the amount of
           the consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be the
           amount of the cash proceeds received by the Company for such







           Common Stock before deducting therefrom any discounts or commissions
           allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or
           otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.

      (2)  In the case of the issuance of Common Stock (otherwise than upon the
           conversion of any shares of capital stock or other securities of the
           Company) for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash,
           including securities acquired in exchange therefor (other than
           securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other
           than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined
           by the Board of Directors, provided, however, that such fair value
           as determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the
           aggregate Market Price of the shares of Common Stock being issued as
           of the date the Board of Directors authorizes the issuance of such
           shares.

      (3)  In the case of the issuance of (A) options, warrants or other rights
           to purchase or acquire Common Stock (whether or not at the time
           exercisable) or (B) securities by their terms convertible into or
           exchangeable for Common Stock (whether or not at the time so
           convertible or exchangeable) or options, warrants or rights to
           purchase such convertible or exchangeable securities (whether or not
           at the time exercisable):

      (i)  the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
           upon exercise of such options, warrants or other rights to purchase
           or acquire Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the
           time such options, warrants or rights are issued and for a
           consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner
           provided in Sections 10.1(a)(1) and (2)), if any, received by the
           Company upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus
           the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or
           rights for the Common Stock covered thereby;

      (ii) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
           upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or
           exchangeable securities, or upon the exercise of options, warrants
           or other rights to purchase or acquire such convertible or
           exchangeable securities and the subsequent conversion or exchange
           thereof, shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such
           securities were issued or such options, warrants or rights were
           issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if any,
           received by the Company for any such securities and related options,
           warrants or rights (excluding any cash received on account of
           accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the additional
           consideration (determined in the manner provided in Section
           10.1(a)(1) and (2)), if any, to be received by the Company upon the
           conversion or exchange of such securities, or upon the exercise of
           any related options, warrants or rights to purchase or acquire such
           convertible or exchangeable securities and the subsequent conversion
           or exchange thereof;

      (iii)on any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
           upon exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or conversion
           or exchange of such convertible or exchangeable securities or any
           change in the consideration to be received by the company upon such
           exercise, conversion or exchange, but excluding changes resulting
           from the antidilution provisions thereof (to the extent comparable
           to the antidilution provisions contained herein), the Exercise Price
           and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as
           then in effect shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price
           and number of Shares as would have been obtained had an adjustment
           been made upon the issuance of such options, warrants or rights not
           exercised prior to such change, or of such convertible or
           exchangeable securities not converted or exchanged prior to such
           change, upon the basis of such change;

      (iv) on the expiration or cancellation of any such options, warrants or
           rights (without exercise), or the termination of the right to
           convert or exchange such convertible or exchangeable securities
           (without exercise), if the Exercise Price and the number of Shares
           issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall have been adjusted upon
           the issuance thereof, the Exercise Price and the number of Shares
           issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be readjusted
           to such Exercise Price and number of Shares as would have been
           obtained had an adjustment been made upon the issuance of such
           options, warrants, rights or such convertible or exchangeable
           securities on the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares
           of Common Stock actually issued upon the exercise of such options,
           warrants or rights, or upon the conversion or exchange of such
           convertible or exchangeable securities; and

      (v)  if the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon
           exercise of this Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance
           of any such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable
           securities, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price and the
           number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this







           Warrant shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock upon
           the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof; provided, however,
           that no increase in the Exercise Price shall be made pursuant to
           subclauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.1(a)(3).

                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section
10.1(a), no adjustment will be required in respect of issuances of Common Stock
(or options to purchase Common Stock) pursuant to stock options granted prior
to the date hereof.

      (b)  Certain Repurchases of Common Stock. In case the Company effects a
           Pro Rata Repurchase (as defined in Section 10.4) of Common Stock,
           then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price determined by
           multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the
           effective date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which
           the numerator shall be (x) the product of (A) the number of shares
           of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata
           Repurchase (after giving effect to the conversion of all outstanding
           in-the-money Convertible Securities and the exercise of all
           outstanding in-the-money Options) and (B) the Market Price of a
           share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the
           first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of
           the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (y) the
           aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which
           the denominator shall be the product of (x) the number of shares of
           Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such ProRata
           Repurchase (after giving effect to the conversion of outstanding all
           in-the-money Convertible Securities and the exercise of all
           outstanding in-the-money Options) minus the number of shares of
           Common Stock so repurchased and (y) the Market Price per share of
           Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first
           public announcement of such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the
           number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
           increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (A)
           the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
           before such adjustment, and (B) the Exercise Price in effect
           immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this
           adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance
           with the immediately preceding sentence.

      (c)  Business Combinations. Subject to Section 12 hereof, in case of any
           Change of Control (as defined in Section 10.4) or reclassification
           of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock
           referred to in Section 10.1(d)), the Shares issued or issuable upon
           exercise of this Warrant after the date of such Change of Control or
           reclassification will be exchangeable for the number of shares of
           stock or other securities or property (including cash) to which the
           Shares issuable (at the time of such consolidation, merger, sale,
           lease or conveyance) upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior
           to such Change of Control or reclassification would have been
           entitled upon such Change of Control or reclassification; and in any
           such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth herein with
           respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holder shall
           be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may
           reasonably be, to any shares of stock or other securities or
           property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of this Warrant. In
           determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property
           receivable upon consummation of such Change of Control, if the
           holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount
           of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Change of
           Control, then the holder shall have the right to make a similar
           election upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the number of
           shares of stock or other securities or property which the holder
           will receive upon exercise of this Warrant.

      (d)  Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If
           the Company shall (1) declare a dividend or make a distribution on
           its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (2) subdivide or
           reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
           number of shares, or (3) combine or reclassify the outstanding
           Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Shares
           issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record
           date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such
           subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be
           proportionately adjusted so that the holder after such date shall be
           entitled to purchase the number of Shares which such holder would
           have owned or been entitled to receive after such date had this
           Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date. In such event
           the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such
           dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision,
           combination or reclassification shall be adjusted to the number
           obtained by dividing (x) the product of (A) the number of Shares
           issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment
           and (B) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the







           issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new number of
           shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant determined pursuant to
           the immediately preceding sentence.

      (e)  Other Distributions. In case the Company shall fix a record date for
           the making of a distribution to all holders of shares of its Common
           Stock (1) of shares of any class other than its Common Stock or (2)
           of evidence of indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary or (3)
           of assets, or (4) of warrants or similar rights (in each case
           excluding any dividends or distribution referred to in Section
           10.1(d)), in each such case the Exercise Price in effect on the
           record date will be reduced by an amount equal, in the case of a
           distribution in cash, to the amount thereof payable per share of the
           Common Stock, or in the case of any other distribution, to the fair
           value thereof per share of the Common Stock as determined by the
           Board of Directors. Such reductions shall take effect on the record
           date for such distribution. In such event, the number of Shares
           issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the
           number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (A) the number of
           Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such
           adjustment, and (B) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
           to the issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new
           Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately
           preceding sentence. In the event that such distribution is not so
           made, the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon
           exercise of this Warrant then in effect shall be readjusted,
           effective as of the date when the Board determines not to distribute
           such shares, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants,
           as the case may be, to the Exercise Price that would then be in
           effect and the number of Warrant Shares that would then be issuable
           upon exercise of this Warrant if such record date and distribution
           had not been fixed.

      (f)  No adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares
           issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant is required if the amount
           of the adjustment is less than $0.01 or one-hundredth (1/100th) of a
           share, as the case may be; provided, however, that any adjustments
           which by reason of this Section 10.1(f) are not required to be made
           will be carried forward and given effect in any subsequent
           adjustment.

      (g)  For the purposes of this Section 10.1, the term "shares of Common
           Stock" shall include (1) the class of stock designated as the Common
           Stock of the Company at the date hereof or (2) any other class of
           stock resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of such
           shares consisting solely of changes in par value, or from no par
           value to par value.

      (h)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any case which this Section 10.1
           provides that an adjustment becomes effective immediately after a
           record date for an event, the Company may defer until the occurrence
           of such event (1) issuing to the holder of any Warrant exercised or
           converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such
           event the additional securities issuable upon such exercise or
           conversion after giving effect to such adjustment and (2) paying to
           the holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to
           Section 4.

      (i)  If the Company takes any action affecting the Common Stock, other
           than action described in this Section 10.1, which in the opinion of
           the Board of Directors of the Company would materially adversely
           affect the conversion rights of the holder of the Warrants, the
           Exercise Price for the Warrants and/or the number of Warrant Shares
           received upon exercise of the Warrant may be adjusted, to the extent
           permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time, as such
           Board may determine in good faith to be equitable in the
           circumstances.

      10.2 Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at its option,
           at any time during the term of the Warrants, reduce the then current
           Exercise Price or increase the number of Shares for which the
           Warrant may be exercised to any amount deemed appropriate by the
           Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that if the
           Company elects to make such adjustment, such adjustment will remain
           in effect for at least a 15-day period, after which time the Company
           may, at its option, reinstate the Exercise Price or number of Shares
           in effect prior to such reduction, subject to any interim
           adjustments pursuant to Section 10.1.

      10.3 Miscellaneous. Except as provided in Section 10.1, no adjustment in
           respect of any dividends or other payments or distributions made to
           holders of securities issuable upon exercise of Warrants will be
           made during the term of a Warrant or upon the exercise of a Warrant.
           To the extent (but only to the extent) that the holder's rights
           hereunder have been protected by the holder's exercise (at holder's
           election and







           reasonable allocation) of its preemptive rights under any
           Pre-Emptive Rights Agreement or similar agreement between the
           Company and the holder hereof, no adjustments will be made to the
           Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares.

           following meanings:

                merger, or consolidation (whether or not the Corporation is the

                voting equity securities of the Corporation immediately prior
                to such transaction will hold (by reason of their holdings in
                the Corporation) less than 50% of the voting equity securities
                of the Corporation or other entity surviving such transaction
                or (B) a transaction or series of related transactions in which
                a person or group (as defined in Rule13d-5(b)(1) under the

                (excluding Warburg Pincus Private Equity VIII, L.P. and its
                affiliates) acquires beneficial ownership (as determined in
                accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of more than
                50% of the voting equity securities of the Corporation.

                "Convertible Securities" means shall mean any evidences of

                Directors, and such issuance is not principally for the purpose
                of raising additional equity capital for the Company; provided
                however that the number of shares of Common Stock so excluded
                in any fiscal year of the Company shall not exceed 0.5% of the
                number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (determined as of
                the date of issuance of such shares of Common Stock), after
                giving effect to the conversion of all outstanding shares
                Series A Preferred Stock and other "in-the-money" (as such term
                is defined below) securities convertible into Common Stock

                Stock by the foregoing clauses(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or
                (v) or on shares of Common Stock so excluded, provided that
                such issuance is made (x) pursuant to obligations of the
                Company established in connection with the original issuance of
                such securities or (y) to all holders of the Company's capital
                stock in proportion to the number of shares held.

                "In-the-money" Options and Convertible Securities shall be
                deemed to include all securities exercisable for or convertible
                into shares of Common Stock with a fair market value equal to
                or greater than the fair market value of the consideration
                which must be paid or which must be foregone to effect such
                exercise or conversion.







                "Market Price" means, with respect to a particular security, on
                any given day, the average of the daily closing prices for 10
                consecutive trading days ending on the trading day prior to the
                day in question or, in case no such reported sale takes place
                on such day, the average of the last closing bid and asked

                or admitted to trading, or if not listed or admitted to trading
                on any national securities exchange, (1) the average of the
                daily closing prices for 10 consecutive trading days commencing

                the NASDAQ Stock Market if such security is traded
                over-the-counter and quoted in the NASDAQ Stock Market, or (2)
                if such security is so traded, but not so quoted, the average
                of the closing reported bid and asked prices of such security
                as reported by the NASDAQ Stock Market or any comparable
                system, or (3) if such security is not listed on the NASDAQ
                Stock Market or any comparable system, the average of the
                closing bid and asked prices as furnished by two members of the
                National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. selected from
                time to time by the Company for that purpose. If such security
                is not listed and traded in a manner that the quotations
                referred to above are available for the period required
                hereunder, the Market Price per share of Common Stock shall be
                deemed to be the fair value per share of such security as
                determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
                Company.

                Pincus Private Equity VIII, L.P. or any of its affiliates,
                pursuant to any tender offer or exchange offer subject to
                Section 13(e) of the Exchange Act, or pursuant to any other
                offer available to substantially all holders of Common Stock,
                whether for cash, shares of capital stock of the Company, other
                securities of the Company, evidences of indebtedness of the
                Company or any other person or any other property (including,
                without limitation, shares of capital stock, other securities
                or evidences of indebtedness of a subsidiary of the Company),
                or any combination thereof, effected while this Warrant is
                outstanding; provided, however, that "Pro Rata Repurchase"
                shall not include any purchase of shares by the Company or any
                Affiliate thereof made directly or indirectly in accordance
                with the requirements of Rule 10b-18 as in effect under the
                Exchange Act; and provided further that "Pro Rata Purchase"

                Pro Rata Repurchase shall mean the date of acceptance of shares
                for purchase or exchange under any tender or exchange offer
                which is a Pro Rata Repurchase or the date of purchase with
                respect to any Pro Rata Repurchase that is not a tender or
                exchange offer.

                "Series A Directors" means directors of the Company elected by
                holders of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company voting as a
                separate class; provided however that commencing at such time
                as no director elected by holders of Series A Preferred Stock
                of the Company voting as a separate class continues to serve on
                the Board of Directors, "Series A Directors" shall be deemed to
                refer to all directors of the Company.

      Section 11. Notice of Adjustments; Notices. Whenever the Exercise Price
        or number of shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to

        Chief Financial Officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event
        requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by
        which such adjustment was calculated and the Exercise Price and number
        of shares purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment,

Section 12. Change of Control.

      (a)  Exchange Right. In the event of a Trigger Date (as defined in
           Exhibit A) the Company shall promptly notify the holder of the
           occurrence thereof. In lieu of the application of Section 10.1(c),
           the holder may in its sole discretion elect by delivering written
           notice to the Company together with this Warrant after the







           occurrence of an Initiation Date (as defined in Exhibit A) to cause
           the Company to purchase this Warrant, in whole or in part, at a
           valuation based on a computation of the option value of the Warrant
           using Black-Scholes option valuation and making the assumptions
           described in the Black-Scholes methodology described in Exhibit A
           (the "Exchange Right"). The Company's obligation to purchase this
           Warrant pursuant to this Section shall be conditioned, and shall
           occur, upon the consummation of a Change of Control.

      (b)  Payment in Common Stock. In the event of a Change of Control, at the
           election of the Company all or any portion of such purchase price
           may be paid in Common Stock (valued as set forth in Exhibit A),
           provided the Company has used its best efforts to ensure that the
           Common Stock paid in exchange for this Warrant (including any
           securities issued in respect of such Common Stock in the Change of
           Control) shall be freely tradable on a national stock exchange or
           the Nasdaq National Market by the holder pursuant to an effective
           registration statement under the Securities Act, or pursuant to Rule
           144 or Rule 145 under the Securities Act without volume restrictions
           under applicable securities laws or under contract.

      3 . If the Shares are being acquired for cash, the Shares to be received

                                   Exhibit A:
                               Change of Control

Section 1:  Certain Definitions:

"Trigger Date" shall mean, as determined by the Company, in connection with a
Change of Control, the earliest of the following dates: (i) the date of the
definitive documentation for such event; (ii) the date the Board of Directors
recommends that the stockholders tender their shares into a tender or exchange
offer that would result in a Change in Control or (iii) if none of the
foregoing has yet occurred, the Initiation Date.

"Initiation Date" shall mean, in connection with any Change of Control, (i) the
date that is the later of the date of shareholder or regulatory approval, if
such approvals are required, (ii) in connection with a tender or exchange
offer, the date that the minimum tender condition and all other material
conditions to such offer have been satisfied or (iii) if none of the foregoing
has yet occurred, the occurrence of a Change of Control.

Section 2:  Change of Control Pursuant to a Merger or Acquisition

In the event of a Change of Control as a result of a merger or acquisition of
the Company, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

 "Acquiror" shall mean the third-party that has entered into such definitive
documentation with the Company or that has commenced such a tender or exchange
offer

"Acquiror's Share Price" shall mean the average of the Acquiror's closing stock
prices for the 10 trading day period immediately preceding the Initiation Date.

"Company Stock Price", for purposes of this Section 2, shall mean the average
of the Company's closing stock prices for the 10 trading day period immediately
preceding the Initiation Date.

In the event of a Change of Control as a result of a merger or acquisition of
the Company, the computation of the value of the Warrant shall use the
Black-Scholes calculation methods using the following assumptions:

        1) Volatility of the closing sales price of the Common Stock for the
        260-trading day period ending on the Trigger Date as reported by
        Bloomberg; 2) Dividend Yield of 0.00%; 3) Interest Rate of 5.50%; 4)
        Exercise price will be the Exercise Price as adjusted and then in
        effect for the Warrant at the time of the Trigger Date; 5) Term of the
        Warrant will be the remaining term of the Warrant from the Trigger Date
        to the stated expiration date of the Warrant; and 6) The underlying
        security price for purposes of the Black-Scholes model will be
        calculated as follows:
              a) In the event of an "all cash" deal, the cash per share offered
              to holders of the Company's Common Stock by the Acquiror; b) In
              the event of an "all stock" deal:
                   x) in the event of a fixed exchange ratio transaction, the
                   price per share of the Company's Common Stock arrived at by
                   multiplying the Acquiror's Stock Price by the number of
                   Acquiror's shares being offered for 1 share of the Company's
                   Common Stock; y) in the event of a fixed value transaction,
                   the value offered by the Acquiror for 1 share of the
                   Company's Common Stock.
              c) In the event of a transaction contemplating various forms of
              consideration for each share of the Company's Common Stock, the
              cash portion, if any, shall be valued as per paragraph a) above;
              the stock portion shall be valued as per paragraph b) above, and
              any other forms of consideration shall be valued by the Company
              in good faith, without applying any discounts to such
              consideration; provided, that in the event the Company's
              stockholders are offered a choice of consideration, the value
              offered per share shall be deemed the aggregate value of all
              consideration offered for all of the outstanding shares of the
              Company's Common Stock, divided by the total number of
              outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock.






Section 3:  Other Change of Control Events

In all other Change of Control events, the computation of the option value of
each Warrant shall use the Black-Scholes calculation methods using the
following assumptions:

      1) Volatility of the closing sales price of the Common Stock for the
      260-trading day period ending on the Trigger Date as reported by
      Bloomberg; 2) Dividend Yield of 0.00%; 3) Interest Rate of 5.50%; 4)
      Exercise price will be the Exercise Price as adjusted and then in effect
      for the Warrant at the time of the Change of Control Event ; 5) Term of
      the Warrant will be the remaining term of the Warrant from the Change in
      Control Event Date to the stated expiration date of the Warrant; and 6)
      The underlying security price for purposes of the Black-Scholes model
      will be calculated using the average of the closing market price of the
      Company's Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days commencing
      immediately after the date of the Change in Control event (for purposes
      of this Section 3, "Company Stock Price").

Section 4: Exercisability; Form of Payment

The holder can exercise the Exchange Right at any time during the ten (10)
business days following the Initiation Date and the Company shall provide
written notice to the holder immediately upon occurrence of the Initiation
Date. In the event the Company elects to exchange the Warrant for shares of
Common Stock of the Company pursuant to Section 12(b) thereof, the holder will
receive that number of shares of Common Stock arrived at by dividing the value
of the Warrant, as determined above, by the Company Stock Price, determined in
accordance with Section 2 or Section3, as applicable.

Section 5: General

Upon a calculation of the value of the Warrant based on the Black-Scholes
computations above, such value will not be discounted in any way. If the holder
disputes the valuation of the Warrant, the Company and the holder will choose a
mutually agreeable investment banking or appraisal firm to compute the
valuation of the Warrant using the guidelines above, and such valuation shall
be final. The fees and expenses of such firm shall be borne equally by the
Company and the holder.
