Of such 183,333 shares of Common Stock, a total of 13,889 shares will be held in escrow for a period of 120 days from the date of closing as security against any indemnification claim. The Common Stock issued in the B&B Acquisition is contractually restricted as to resale for two years.

F-1 6 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To Cook and Staff, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Cook and Staff, Inc. (a California corporation) and Related Company as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the related combined statements of operations, stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of Cook and Staff, Inc. and Related Company as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the combined results of their operations and their combined cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these combined financial statements. F-6 11 COOK AND STAFF, INC. AND RELATED COMPANY NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION: The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of Cook and Staff, Inc. and RAC Services, Inc. (the "Related Company", collectively the "Company"). The Company provides litigation support services to its customers from its offices in California. In June 1996, the Company and its stockholder intend to enter into a definitive agreement with F.Y.I. Incorporated ("FYI") pursuant to which the Company will sell selected assets to FYI (the "Acquisition"). 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Basis of Presentation Cook and Staff, Inc. and Related Company are under common control. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in combination. Fiscal Year-Ends RAC Services, Inc. has a December 31 year-end. Cook and Staff, Inc. has a June 30 year-end. Cook and Staff, Inc. accounts and results for the three years have been recast to a December 31 year-end. The accounts and results of RAC Services, Inc., using a December 31 year-end, have been combined with the recast December 31 year-end accounts and results of Cook and Staff, Inc. in the accompanying combined financial statements for 1993, 1994, and 1995. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates market value. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Other Long-Lived Assets The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" (SFAS 121), which established accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill. Adoption is required in financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 121 would have any material effect on the combined financial statements. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when services are rendered to the Company's customers. Income Taxes The Company is an S corporation for income tax purposes and, accordingly, any income tax liabilities are the responsibility of the stockholder. F-7 12 COOK AND STAFF, INC. AND RELATED COMPANY NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentration of credit risk, as defined by SFAS No. 105, consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. The Company's customers are concentrated in the Western United States and the primary customers are insurance companies and legal institutions. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. 3. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT: Property and equipment consist of the following at December 31:

4. INCOME TAXES: The Company has elected S corporation status under the Internal Revenue Code. In lieu of federal income taxes, the shareholder is taxed on the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal income tax has been included in the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994, and 1995. A deferred state tax liability exists primarily due to the cash basis method of reporting for income tax purposes. The deferred tax liability represents the State of California S corporation tax on the net temporary differences. State income taxes are as follows at December 31:

F-8 13 COOK AND STAFF, INC. AND RELATED COMPANY NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: Leases The Company leases office facilities in California.

The lease agreements provide that the Company pay all related taxes and insurance.

Litigation The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the normal course of its business, most of which involves claims for workers' compensation incurred in connection with its operations.

7. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER: The Company has two litigation support customer relationships which combined billings to the respective customer branches and their independent vendor attorneys were approximately 25% and 12% for the year ended December 31, 1995, 23% and 12% for the year ended December 31, 1994, and 11% and 12% for the year ended December 31, 1993. 8. PRO FORMA NET INCOME (UNAUDITED): Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the periods presented reflect compensation and related benefits that owners and certain key employees received during the periods. These owners and key employees have agreed to certain reductions in salaries and benefits in connection with the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma data present compensation at the level the officers and owners of the Company have agreed to receive subsequent to the Acquisition. In addition, the pro forma data present the incremental provision for income taxes as if the Company had been subject to federal and state income taxes and adjusted for the impact of the compensation differential discussed above.

During 1995, the Company obtained a $250,000 demand revolving line of credit for short-term working capital financing which is limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable at the bank's prime rate plus 1%, expiring in April, 1996. The note is collateralized by all assets of the Company excluding real estate and is guaranteed by the Company's shareholder. Borrowings on the line of credit at December 31, 1995 were $50,000. The Industrial Revenue Bonds were issued to provide funds for the construction of the Company's office and operating facility, for the purchase of certain equipment to be used in that facility, and for certain related expenses. All real estate, equipment, and other tangible property at the location are pledged as collateral to the bond holders. The Industrial Revenue Bonds are secured by a letter of credit issued by a bank on behalf of the Company for approximately $2,450,000, expiring on December 31, 1996. The letter of credit is guaranteed by F-16 21 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) the Company's shareholder. The letter of credit was placed with a new bank during 1995 resulting in issuance costs of $56,428. The Company has the option to extend the letter of credit based on the bank's annual review. The Company had a consolidated term loan with its former bank, payable in monthly installments of $12,500 plus interest at the bank's prime rate plus 1%, maturing on December 31, 1997. During 1995, the Company borrowed $200,000 from a bank, and used the proceeds and operating cash to repay the consolidated term loan. The new term loan is payable in 36 equal monthly installments of principal, plus interest through April, 1998, and is collateralized by all assets of the Company, excluding real estate, and is guaranteed by the Company's shareholder. The bond indenture, term loan and letter of credit agreements have covenants which, among other things, require the maintenance of certain financial ratios. In addition, cross-default provisions exist among the bond indenture and related agreements. Notes payable, vehicles and equipment have senior collateral rights to certain property and equipment, excluding the facility and related land pledged to the bondholders, and are subordinated to the term loan as to accounts receivable and inventories. Maturities of long-term debt are as follows: 1996............................................. $ 157,612 1997............................................. 153,098 1998............................................. 87,972 1999............................................. 100,000 2000............................................. 100,000 Thereafter....................................... 2,050,000 ---------- $2,648,682 ==========
The fair value of the note payable and long-term debt at December 31, 1995 approximates $2,301,000 based upon loans with similar terms and average maturities currently being offered to the Company. NOTE 5. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED EXPENSES Accounts payable and accrued expenses consist of the following:

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these combined financial statements. F-23 28 PREMIER DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. AND AFFILIATE NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES OPERATIONS -- Premier Document Management, Inc. and Affiliate (the "Company") provides medical records reproduction and management services on behalf of hospitals and medical clinics in the Pacific Northwest. The amount the Company can charge requesting parties for reproduction services is regulated by law. It operates out of facilities located throughout Washington and in San Jose, California. On May 31, 1996, the Company merged with Premier Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of F.Y.I. Incorporated (see Note 12). PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION -- The combined financial statements include the accounts of Premier Document Management, Inc. and PDM Services, Inc., an affiliate controlled through common ownership. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. CASH EQUIVALENTS -- For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION -- Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the length of the lease, whichever is less. INCOME TAXES -- Income taxes are provided for the effect of transactions reported in the financial statements tax provision consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related to differences in the financial statement and tax bases of certain assets and liabilities. PDM Services, Inc., with consent of its stockholder, has elected to be taxed as an S corporation. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholders of an S corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of taxable income. On May 31, 1996, the Company merged with Premier Acquisition Corp. and ceased to be an S corporation (see Note 12). INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- The accompanying combined statements of income and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited. The unaudited results of operations and cash flows have been prepared on the same basis as the audited combined financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented. F-24 29 PREMIER DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. AND AFFILIATE NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2 -- PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consist of the following:

NOTE 3 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS NOTE RECEIVABLE -- At December 31, 1994, the Company held a $45,500 promissory note receivable from its President and majority stockholder. During 1995, payment was received in full, along with $3,326 of interest. NOTES PAYABLE -- The Company has four unsecured promissory notes totaling $34,944 payable to its President and majority stockholder. The notes are payable on demand and bear interest at 4%. Subsequent to March 31, 1996, the stockholder contributed the notes to the Company. Accordingly, the balance was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. NOTE 4 -- INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes consists of the following:
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, YEAR ENDED -------------------------- DECEMBER 31, 1996 1995 1995 ----------- ----------- ------------ (UNAUDITED) (UNAUDITED) Current expense.................................. $ 17,243 $12,900 $12,600 Deferred expense (benefit)....................... 15,000 (1,000) (500) ------- ------- ------- $ 32,243 $11,900 $12,100 ======= ======= =======
F-25 30 PREMIER DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. AND AFFILIATE NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The provision for income taxes differs from the amount determined by applying U.S. statutory federal income tax rates to income before income taxes as a result of the following differences:
THREE MONTHS ENDED YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, -------------------------- 1995 1996 1995 ------------ ----------- ----------- (UNAUDITED) (UNAUDITED) Tax at statutory rates........................... $ 30,332 $ 8,692 $ 9,186 Non-deductible loss of PDM Services, Inc., an S corporation................................. 940 379 (17) Non-deductible items........................... 1,262 143 61 Effect of estimated higher rates used to calculate deferred tax assets and liabilities................................. (291) 2,686 2,870 ------- ------- ------- Provision for income taxes....................... $ 32,243 $11,900 $12,100 ======= ======= =======
Deferred income taxes are computed based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of certain assets and liabilities. The Company has elected to prepare its income tax return using the cash method of accounting. Accordingly, temporary differences relate to accrual basis assets and liabilities as well as differences in accumulated depreciation. Gross deferred income tax assets and liabilities are comprised of the following:
DECEMBER 31, MARCH 31, 1995 1996 ------------ ----------- (UNAUDITED) Deferred tax liabilities Accrual basis income...................................... $ 92,100 $ 92,100 Depreciation.............................................. 8,600 7,600 -------- -------- 100,700 99,700 Deferred tax assets Accrual basis expenses.................................... (17,800) (17,800) -------- -------- Net deferred tax liability.................................. $ 82,900 $ 81,900 ======== ========
Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996 were computed using the effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year. NOTE 5 -- COMMON STOCK Common stock consists of the following:

F-26 31 PREMIER DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. AND AFFILIATE NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 6 -- RETIREMENT PLAN The Company sponsors a defined contribution employee retirement plan qualified under IRC Section 401(k). The plan covers substantially all employees 18 years of age or older with one year of service. The Company makes annual matching contributions to the plan ranging up to 1.5% of eligible participants' compensation. Total pension expense for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the three months ended March 31, 1996 (unaudited) and 1995 (unaudited) was $6,068, $1,524 and $1,479, respectively. The Company may also make contributions that are discretionary, as determined by the Board of Directors. No discretionary contributions were made during 1995 or the first three months of 1996. NOTE 7 -- COMMITMENTS The Company is obligated under operating lease agreements for three office facilities. Future minimum lease payments under these leases for years ending December 31 are as follows:
SEATTLE SPOKANE TACOMA TOTAL ------- ------- ------ ------- 1996.......................................... $70,400 $ 5,400 $4,300 $80,100 1997.......................................... -- 5,400 2,100 7,500 1998.......................................... -- 4,500 -- 4,500 ------- ------- ------ ------- $70,400 $15,300 $6,400 $92,100 ======= ======= ====== =======
Future minimum lease payments at March 31, 1996 were not materially different from the amounts at December 31, 1995. The Company also leases office space in San Jose, California for $500 per month. The lease may be terminated by either party with 60 days notice. Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 1995 and three months ended March 31, 1996 (unaudited) and 1995 (unaudited) was approximately $75,500, $18,200 and $20,100, respectively. NOTE 8 -- FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Notes payable to stockholder are carried at $34,944, bear interest at 4%, and are payable on demand. Because of the related party nature of these financial instruments, which allows for possible modification to their terms and maturities, it is not practicable to estimate fair value. NOTE 9 -- CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMER CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK -- Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its temporary cash investments with major financial institutions. At times, deposits may exceed federally insured limits. The Company generally does not require collateral on trade receivables, however, prepayment is required from customers whose outstanding balance exceeds 90 days. Historically, credit related losses have not been significant. MAJOR CUSTOMER -- The Company receives more than ten percent of its revenue from the State of Washington Department of Social and Human Services. Following is a summary of the percentage of revenue earned and accounts receivable due from this customer:
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, YEAR ENDED --------------------------- DECEMBER 31, 1996 1995 1995 ----------- ----------- ------------ (UNAUDITED) (UNAUDITED) Revenues......................................... 15.8% 12.6% 15.2% ==== ==== ==== Accounts receivable.............................. 14.3% 14.9% ---- ----
F-27 32 PREMIER DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. AND AFFILIATE NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 10 -- CONTINGENCY The Company is a co-defendant in a lawsuit alleging improper disclosure of an individual's medical records. The amount of damages has not been specified. Defense of the claim has been assumed by the Company's insurance carrier. Management believes the suit is without merit and will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position. NOTE 11 -- PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENT Management has determined that accrued vacation expense was not recorded in prior years. Accrual of this liability, net of tax, resulted in a $12,000 decrease in retained earnings at December 31, 1994. NOTE 12 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS COMPANY MERGER -- On May 31, 1996, the Company merged with Premier Acquisition Corp. ("Premier"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of F.Y.I. Incorporated ("FYI"). Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, Company stockholders received consideration consisting of cash and shares of FYI common stock. Additional consideration is contingent on the performance of Premier during the eight month period ended December 31, 1996. In connection with the merger, the Company President and majority stockholder executed a five year noncompetition agreement with Premier and FYI. All other stockholders executed similar agreements with terms of three years. The majority stockholder also entered into a three year employment agreement as President of Premier. EXECUTIVE BONUS -- On May 30, 1996, the Company paid a $225,000 bonus to its President. F-28 33 F.Y.I. INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS These pro forma combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Founding Companies Combined, F.Y.I. Incorporated financial statements and the individual Founding Company financial statements. See "Index to Financial Statements." F.Y.I. acquired, simultaneously with and as a condition to the closing of the Offering in January 1996, Imagent, Researchers, Recordex, DPAS, Leonard, Deliverex and Permanent Records. The Acquisitions have been accounted for in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as a combination of the Founding Companies at historical cost, because the Founding Companies' stockholders transfered assets to F.Y.I. in exchange for Common Stock and cash simultaneously with F.Y.I.'s initial public offering, the nature of future operations of the Company will be substantially identical to the combined operations of the Founding Companies, and no former stockholder group of any of the Founding Companies obtained a majority of the outstanding voting shares of the Company. Accordingly, historical financial statements of these Founding Companies have been combined throughout all relevant periods as if the Founding Companies had always been members of the same operating group. However, since the Founding Companies were not under common control or management, historical combined results may not be comparable to, or indicative of, future performance. For accounting purposes the acquisitions of the Founding Companies were recorded by the Company as of January 31, 1996. In May 1996, the Company acquired B&B Information and Image Management, Inc. ("B&B") and Premier Document Management, Inc. and PDM Services, Inc. ("Premier"). In June 1996, the Company acquired all of the non-cash assets of Robert A. Cook and Staff, Inc. and RAC Services, Inc. ("Cook"). All of the New Acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The following unaudited pro forma financial statements of F.Y.I. Incorporated and subsidiaries gives effect to: (i) the Acquisitions of B&B, Premier and Cook and (ii) the acquisition of the Founding Companies for the periods prior to the consummation of the acquisitions (January 31, 1996). The unaudited pro forma balance sheet is based upon: (i) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of F.Y.I. as of March 31, 1996; and (ii) the unaudited balance sheet of B&B and Premier purchased during May 1996 and Cook purchased during June 1996 as if the acquisitions had occurred on March 31, 1996. The unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 is based upon: (i) the unaudited statement of operations of F.Y.I. for the period from February 1, 1996 to March 31, 1996 combined with the unaudited statement of operations for the Founding Companies for the one month ended January 31, 1996; (ii) the unaudited statement of operations for B&B, Premier and Cook from January 1, 1996 to March 31, 1996. The unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1995 is based upon: (i) the audited combined financial statements of the Founding Companies for the year ended December 31, 1995; and (ii) the audited financial statements of B&B, Premier and Cook for the year ended December 31, 1995. The pro forma financial statements have been prepared based upon certain assumptions and include all adjustments as detailed in the Notes to Pro Forma Financial Statements. F-29 34 The Company has preliminarily analyzed the savings that it expects to be realized by consolidating certain general and administrative functions, including reductions in accounting, audit, insurance and benefit plan expenses. In addition, the Company anticipates that it will realize significant benefits from: (i) the reduction in interest payments related to the prepayment of outstanding Founding Company debt; (ii) its ability to borrow at lower interest rates than the Founding Companies; and (iii) the interest earned on the net proceeds of the Offering remaining after payment of the expenses of the Offering and the cash portion of the consideration for the Founding Companies. The Company has not and cannot quantify these savings at the present time. These savings will be offset by the costs of being a public company and the incremental increase in costs related to the Company's new management. However, these costs, like the savings that they offset, cannot be quantified accurately. Accordingly, neither the anticipated savings nor the anticipated costs have been included in the pro forma financial information of F.Y.I. Incorporated and Subsidiaries for the periods prior to the acquisition of the Founding Companies. The pro forma financial data does not purport to represent what the Company's financial position or results of operations would actually have been if such transaction in fact had occurred on those dates or to project the Company's financial position or results of operations for any future period.

F-33 38 NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THE PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO THE ACCOMPANYING BALANCE SHEET AS OF MARCH 31, 1996 ARE SUMMARIZED AS BELOW: A. To record the purchase of B&B, Premier and Cook assets and liabilities including the preliminary allocation of the purchase price (including estimated direct costs) and the disbursement of $15,522,000 cash and issuance of 253,252 shares of Common Stock to consummate the acquisitions. The estimated fair market values reflected below are based on preliminary estimates and assumptions and are subject to revision. In management's opinion, the preliminary allocation is not expected to be materially different than the final allocation. The fair market value of the shares of Common Stock used in calculating the Consideration Paid was $13.65 which is based on a 35% discount from the average trading price of the Common Stock based on the length and type of restrictions in the purchase agreements. Consideration Paid............................................... 18,979,000 Estimated Fair Value of Assets................................... 8,060,000 Estimated Fair Value of Liabilities.............................. 5,754,000 Goodwill......................................................... 16,673,000
All intangibles are considered enterprise goodwill. Based on the historical profitability of the purchased companies and the trends in the legal, healthcare and other industries to outsource document management functions further in the foreseeable future, the enterprise goodwill will be amortized over a period of 30 years. The carrying value of intangible assets will be reviewed at each reporting period on an acquisition by acquisition basis to determine if facts and circumstances exist which would suggest that the intangible assets may be impaired or that the amortization period needs to be modified. THE PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO THE ACCOMPANYING STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS ARE SUMMARIZED BELOW: B. Adjustment to depreciation and amortization expense related to the preliminary purchase price allocations described above. C. To record the difference between the compensation paid to the stockholders of B&B and Premier for the historical periods presented and the F.Y.I. employment contract compensation to the stockholders. D. Adjustment of the federal and state income tax provisions based on the pro forma combined operations. E. To adjust the weighted average shares outstanding to reflect the pro forma effect of the shares issued for the purchase of B&B and Premier. F. To record the difference between the compensation paid to the stockholders' of the Founding Companies and the F.Y.I. employment contract compensation for the one month ended January 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995. G. Adjustment of the federal and state income tax provisions based on the pro forma combined operations of F.Y.I. and the Founding Companies. H. To record interest expense on the $8,150,000 term debt issued for the purchase of Cook. Proceeds remaining from the Offering were used for the purchase of B&B and Premier, and a portion of Cook.

THE HOLDER OF THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS HEREIN SET FORTH. VOID AFTER 5:00 P.M. NEW YORK CITY TIME, MAY 21, 2003 **************************************** No. 4 WARRANT to PURCHASE COMMON STOCK of F.Y.I. INCORPORATED **************************************** This certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, F.Y.I. Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), grants to Ed H. Bowman, Jr. ("Mr. Bowman") or permitted registered assigns (the "Warrantholder" or "Warrantholders"), the right to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, at $20.00 per share (the "Exercise Price"), Fifty Thousand (50,000) shares, of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 5. 2 1. Duration and Exercise of Warrant; Limitation on Exercise; Payment of Taxes. 1.1 Duration and Exercise of Warrant. (a) This Warrant may be exercised to purchase 50% of the underlying shares from and after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on May 21, 1998 (the "Initial Exercise Date") and the remaining 50% of the underlying shares on May 21, 1999 (the "Second Exercise Date"), the Initial Exercise Date or the Second Exercise Date, as applicable (the "Exercise Date") and to and including 5:00 P.M. New York City time on May 21, 2003 (the "Expiration Date"). In addition, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company, the right to exercise 100% of the underlying shares shall immediately vest. A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) any person, other than the Company or an employee benefit plan of the Company, acquires directly or indirectly the Beneficial Ownership (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) of any voting security of the Company and immediately after such acquisition such Person is, directly or indirectly, the Beneficial Owner of voting securities representing 50% or more of the total voting power of all of the then-outstanding voting securities of the Company; (ii) the individuals (A) who, as of the closing date of the Initial Public Offering, constitute the Board (the "Original Directors") or (B) who thereafter are elected to the Board and whose election, or nomination for election, to the Board was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Original Directors then still in office (such directors becoming "Additional Original Directors" immediately following their election) or (C) who are elected to the Board and whose election, or nomination for election, to the Board was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Original Directors and Additional Original Directors then still in office (such directors also becoming "Additional Original Directors" immediately following their election) (such individuals being the "Continuing Directors"), cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the members of the Board; (iii) the stockholders of the Company shall approve a merger, consolidation, recapitalization, or reorganization of the Company, a reverse stock split of outstanding voting securities, or consummation of any such transaction if stockholder approval is not sought or obtained, other than any such transaction which would result in at least 75% of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such transaction being Beneficially Owned by at least 75% of the holders of outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to the transaction, with the voting power of each such continuing holder relative to other such continuing holders not substantially altered in the transaction; or -2- 3 (iv) the stockholders of the Company shall approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or a substantial portion of the Company's assets (i.e., 50% or more of the total assets of the Company). (b) The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Warrantholder of record, in whole, or from time to time in part, by (a) surrender of this Warrant, accompanied by the Exercise Form annexed hereto (the "Exercise Form") duly executed by the Warrantholder of record and specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased, to the Company at the office of the Company located at 3232 McKinney Avenue, Suite 900, Dallas, Texas 75204 (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder at the address of such Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company) during normal business hours on any day (a "Business Day") other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is authorized to close or on which the Company is otherwise closed for business (a "Nonbusiness Day") on or after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on the Exercise Date but not later than 5:00 P.M. on the Expiration Date (or 5:00 P.M. on the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), (b) delivery of payment to the Company in cash or by certified or official bank check in New York Clearing House Funds, of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form and (c) such documentation as to the identity and authority of the Warrantholder as the Company may reasonably request. Such Warrant Shares shall be deemed by the Company to be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for the Warrant Shares as aforesaid. Certificates for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form shall be delivered to the Warrantholder as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 10 business days, thereafter. The stock certificates so delivered shall be in denominations of at least 1,000 shares each or such other denomination as may be specified by the Warrantholder and agreed upon by the Company, and shall be issued in the name of the Warrantholder or, if permitted by subsection 1.5 and in accordance with the provisions thereof, such other name as shall be designated in the Exercise Form. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant evidencing the rights to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. No adjustments or payments shall be made on or in respect of Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant for any cash dividends paid or payable to holders of record of Common Stock prior to the date as of which the Warrantholder shall be deemed to be the record holder of such Warrant Shares. 1.2 Limitation on Exercise. If this Warrant is not exercised prior to 5:00 P.M. on the Expiration Date (or the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), this Warrant, or any new Warrant issued pursuant to Section 1.1, shall cease to be exercisable and shall become void and all rights of the Warrantholder hereunder -3- 4 shall cease. This Warrant shall not be exercisable and no Warrant Shares shall be issued hereunder, prior to 9:00 A.M. New York City time on the Exercise Date. 1.3 Exercise Upon Termination. Upon termination of Mr. Bowman's employment with the Company, this Warrant may be exercised after the Initial Exercise Date and to and including the Expiration Date. Subject to the foregoing, in the event of Mr. Bowman's death, this Warrant may be exercised by Mr. Bowman's legal representative through the Expiration Date. 1.4 Payment of Taxes. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any stock transfer or other issuance tax in respect thereto; provided, however, that the Warrantholder shall be required to pay any and all taxes which may be payable in respect to any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the then Warrantholder as reflected upon the books of the Company. 1.5 Transfer Restriction and Legend. (a) Neither this Warrant nor any interest or participation therein may be in any manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, at any time, without the consent of the Company, except by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise by operation of law. (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant Shares, nor any interest or participation in either, may be in any manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, except in compliance with applicable United States federal and state securities laws. This limitation shall be in addition to the limitation set forth in Section 1.5(a) above. Each certificate for Warrant Shares and any Warrant issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any Warrant bearing such a legend shall bear a legend similar in effect to the foregoing paragraph unless, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the Warrant need no longer be subject to the restriction contained herein. The provisions of this subsection 1.5 shall be binding upon all subsequent holders of this Warrant, if any. Warrant Shares transferred to the public as expressly permitted by, and in accordance with, the provisions of this Warrant shall thereafter cease to be deemed to be "Warrant Shares" for purposes hereof. 1.6 Divisibility of Warrant. This Warrant may be divided into warrants representing one Warrant Share or multiples thereof, upon surrender at the principal office of the Company on any Business Day, without charge to any Warrantholder, except as provided below. The Warrantholder will be charged for reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company in connection with the division of this Warrant into Warrants representing fewer than one thousand (1,000) Warrant Shares. Upon any such division, and, if permitted by subsection 1.5 and in accordance with the provisions thereof, the Warrants may be transferred -4- 5 of record to a name other than that of the Warrantholder of record; provided, however, that the Warrantholder shall be required to pay any and all transfer taxes with respect thereto. 2. Reservation and Listing of Shares, Etc. All Warrant Shares which are issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall, upon issuance and payment of the Exercise Price, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue. During the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this Warrant, and shall at its expense use its best efforts to procure such listing thereof (subject to official notice of issuance) as then may be required on all stock exchanges on which the Common Stock is then listed. The Company shall, from time to time, take all such action as may be required to assure that the par value per share of the Warrant Shares is at all times equal to or less than the then effective Exercise Price. 3. Exchange, Loss or Destruction of Warrant. If permitted by subsection 1.5 or 1.6 and in accordance with the provisions thereof, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed instrument of assignment and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of such bond or indemnification as the Company may reasonably require, and, in the case of such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. The term "Warrant" as used herein includes any Warrants issued in substitution or exchange of this Warrant. 4. Ownership of Warrant. The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer as provided in subsections 1.1 and 1.5 or in Section 3. 5. Certain Adjustments. -5- 6 The Exercise Price at which Warrant Shares may be purchased hereunder, and the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased upon exercise hereof, are subject to change or adjustment as follows: 5.1 The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows: (a) In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) issue by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock other securities of the Company (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation), the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted so that the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which he would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event or any record date with respect thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph (a) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event. (b) In case the Company shall: (I) issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of its outstanding Common Stock, without any charge to such holders, entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share which is lower at the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants than the then current market price per share of Common Stock, or (ii) distribute to all holders of its shares of Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends or distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus and dividends or distributions referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection 5.1) or rights, options or warrants, or convertible or exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and/or the Exercise Price in order to preserve the relative rights and interests of the Warrantholders, such adjustments to be made by the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company. -6- 7 5.2 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 to any amount, consistent with applicable law, deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. 5.3 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail first class, postage prepaid, to all Warrantholders, notice of such adjustment. 5.4 No Adjustment for Cash Dividends. No adjustment in respect of any cash dividends shall be made during the term of this Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant. 5.5 Preservation of Purchase Rights Upon Merger, Consolidation, etc. In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale, transfer or lease to another corporation of all or substantially all of the property of the Company, the Company or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholders an agreement that the Warrantholders shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action; provided, however, that no adjustment in respect of cash dividends, interest or other income on or from such shares or other securities and property shall be made during the term of this Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant. Such agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The provisions of this subsection 5.5 shall apply similarly to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases. 6. Registration Rights 6.1 Piggy-Back Registration Rights. At any time following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, whenever the Company proposes to register any Company Stock for its own or others account under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for a public offering for cash, but other than a registration relating to employee benefit plans, the Company will give each Warrantholder prompt written notice of its intent to do so. Upon the written request of any Warrantholder given within 30 days after receipt of such notice, the Company will use its best efforts to cause to be included in such registration all of the Company Stock which such Warrantholder requests, provided that the Company shall have the right to reduce the number of shares included in such registration if the Company is advised in writing in good faith by -7- 8 any managing underwriter of the securities being offered pursuant to any registration statement under this Section 6.1 that the number of shares to be sold by persons other than the Company is greater than the number of such shares which can be offered without adversely affecting the offering, the Company may reduce pro rata the number of shares offered for the accounts of such persons (based upon the number of shares held by such person) to a number deemed satisfactory by such managing underwriter. 6.2 Other Arrangements. In connection with the registration of Warrant Shares in accordance with subsections 6.1, the holders who elect to have their Warrant Shares included therein shall so notify the Company and furnish the Company with such appropriate information (including, but not limited to, the manner in which such shares are to be sold) in connection therewith as the Company shall reasonably request. Such notification shall be made, and such information furnished, in writing within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of the notices specified in subsections 6.1. In connection with any such registration, the Company agrees to: (a) Use its best efforts to register or qualify the Warrant Shares for offer or sale under state securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in which the holders thereof shall reasonably designate, and use its best efforts to do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders to consummate the sale, transfer or other disposition of such Warrant Shares in any jurisdiction; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now qualified or to take any other action which would subject it to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction; (b) Furnish to the holders requesting registration of the Warrant Shares (I) at least three (3) calendar days before the filing thereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") a proof of the latest draft of the registration statement and, if requested, to extend invitations to the holders of the Piggy-Back Shares to attend all meetings at which the Company and the underwriter of such offering are present at which such registration statement is discussed, and (ii) promptly after the filing thereof, a copy of the registration statement as filed and any amendment to such registration statement and all exhibits thereto and consents of experts filed or to be filed therewith; (c) Furnish to the holders requesting registration of the Warrant Shares at the Company's expense such number of copies of such registration statement and all amendments thereto and of such prospectuses (including each preliminary, amended, or supplemental prospectus) as such persons may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale or transfer of his or its Warrant Shares; -8- 9 (d) Make available to the Company's security holders, not later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the end of the Company's first fiscal quarter in which the first anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement occurs (or ninety (90) calendar days if the end of the first fiscal quarter in which the first anniversary of the effective date occurs coincides with the end of the Company's fiscal year), an earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve (12) consecutive months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act or Rule 158 promulgated under the Securities Act; (e) Use its best efforts to list the Warrant Shares on any securities exchange on which other shares of Common Stock are listed; (f) Afford to the persons requesting registration an opportunity to make such examination and inquiry into the financial position, business and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries as such persons or their counsel may reasonably deem necessary so as to satisfy themselves as to the accuracy and completeness of the registration statement; and (g) Pay all costs incident to such registration other than the cost of any counsel or other advisers to the holder requesting registration and any brokerage or underwriting commissions in connection with the sale of the Warrant Shares so registered. The Company shall have sole control in connection with the preparation, filing, amending and supplementing of any registration statement, including the right to withdraw the same or delay the effectiveness thereof when, in the sole judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, the pendency of such registration statement or the effectiveness thereof would impose an undue burden upon the ability of the Company to proceed with any other material financing for its own account or any material corporate transaction, including, but not limited to, a reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or material acquisition of the securities or assets of another firm or corporation; and the Company shall be required to file a new registration statement or to proceed with such actions as reasonably may be required to cause the registration statement to become effective within a reasonable time after the consummation of the event or transaction which required such withdrawal or delay. 7. Miscellaneous. 7.1 Entire Agreement. This Warrant constitutes the entire agreement between the Company and the Warrantholder with respect to this Warrant and Warrant Shares. 7.2 Binding Effects; Benefits. This Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the Company, the Warrantholder and holders of Warrant Shares and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

THE HOLDER OF THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS HEREIN SET FORTH. VOID AFTER 5:00 P.M. NEW YORK CITY TIME, [5 YEARS FROM THE INITIAL EXERCISE DATE] **************************************** No. 3 WARRANT to PURCHASE COMMON STOCK of F.Y.I. INCORPORATED **************************************** This certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, F.Y.I. Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), grants to Robert Irvine ("Mr. Irvine") or permitted registered assigns (the "Warrantholder" or "Warrantholders"), the right to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, at the price per share offered in the Company's initial public offering (the "IPO") (the "Exercise Price"), Fifty Thousand (50,000) shares, of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 5. 2 I. Duration and Exercise of Warrant; Limitation on Exercise; Payment of Taxes. A. Duration and Exercise of Warrant. (a) This Warrant may be exercised to purchase 50% of the underlying shares from and after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on [2 years from closing of the initial public offering of shares offered to the public pursuant to Registration Statement 33-98608 (the "Initial Public Offering")] (the "Initial Exercise Date") and the remaining 50% of the underlying shares on [3 years from closing of the Initial Public Offering (the "Second Exercise Date"), the Initial Exercise Date or the Second Exercise Date, as applicable (the "Exercise Date") and to and including 5:00 P.M. New York City time on [5 years from closing of the Initial Exercise Date] (the "Expiration Date"). In addition, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company, the right to exercise 100% of the underlying shares shall immediately vest. A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) any person, other than the Company or an employee benefit plan of the Company, acquires directly or indirectly the Beneficial Ownership (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the" Exchange Act")) of any voting security of the Company and immediately after such acquisition such Person is, directly or indirectly, the Beneficial Owner of voting securities representing 50% or more of the total voting power of all of the then-outstanding voting securities of the Company; (ii) the individuals (A) who, as of the closing date of the Initial Public Offering, constitute the Board (the "Original Directors") or (B) who thereafter are elected to the Board and whose election, or nomination for election, to the Board was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Original Directors then still in office (such directors becoming "Additional Original Directors" immediately following their election) or (C) who are elected to the Board and whose election, or nomination for election, to the Board was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Original Directors and Additional Original Directors then still in office (such directors also becoming "Additional Original Directors" immediately following their election) (such individuals being the "Continuing 3 Directors"), cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the members of the Board; (iii) the stockholders of the Company shall approve a merger, consolidation, recapitalization, or reorganization of the Company, a reverse stock split of outstanding voting securities, or consummation of any such transaction if stockholder approval is not sought or obtained, other than any such transaction which would result in at least 75% of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such transaction being Beneficially Owned by at least 75% of the holders of outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to the transaction, with the voting power of each such continuing holder relative to other such continuing holders not substantially altered in the transaction; or (iv) the stockholders of the Company shall approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or a substantial portion of the Company's assets (i.e., 50% or more of the total assets of the Company). (b) The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Warrantholder of record, in whole, or from time to time in part, by (a) surrender of this Warrant, accompanied by the Exercise Form annexed hereto (the "Exercise Form") duly executed by the Warrantholder of record and specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased, to the Company at the office of the Company located at 2911 Turtle Creek Boulevard, Suite 300, Dallas, Texas 75219 (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder at the address of such Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company) during normal business hours on any day (a "Business Day") other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is authorized to close or on which the Company is otherwise closed for business (a "Nonbusiness Day") on or after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on the Exercise Date but not later than 5:00 P.M. on the Expiration Date (or 5:00 P.M. on the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), (b) delivery of payment to the Company in cash or by certified or official bank check in New York Clearing House Funds, of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form and (c) such documentation as to the identity and authority of the Warrantholder as the Company may reasonably request. Such Warrant Shares shall be deemed by the Company to be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for the Warrant Shares as aforesaid. Certificates for the Warrant Shares 4 specified in the Exercise Form shall be delivered to the Warrantholder as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 10 business days, thereafter. The stock certificates so delivered shall be in denominations of at least 1,000 shares each or such other denomination as may be specified by the Warrantholder and agreed upon by the Company, and shall be issued in the name of the Warrantholder or, if permitted by subsection 1.5 and in accordance with the provisions thereof, such other name as shall be designated in the Exercise Form. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant evidencing the rights to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. No adjustments or payments shall be made on or in respect of Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant for any cash dividends paid or payable to holders of record of Common Stock prior to the date as of which the Warrantholder shall be deemed to be the record holder of such Warrant Shares. B. Limitation on Exercise. This Warrant may only be vested if, at the time of such vesting, Mr. Irvine is an Employee of the Company, except as provided in Section 1.3. If this Warrant is not exercised prior to 5:00 P.M. on the Expiration Date (or the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), this Warrant, or any new Warrant issued pursuant to Section 1.1, shall cease to be exercisable and shall become void and all rights of the Warrantholder hereunder shall cease. This Warrant shall not be exercisable and no Warrant Shares shall be issued hereunder, prior to 9:00 A.M. New York City time on the Exercise Date. C. Exercise Upon Termination. Upon termination of Mr. Irvine's employment with the Company, this Warrant may be exercised during the three month period following such termination of employment, but only to the extent that this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such termination of 5 employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such termination is for cause, the right to exercise this Warrant shall terminate upon such termination. In no event shall this Warrant be exercisable for more than the maximum number of shares that the Warrantholder was entitled to purchase at the date of termination of the relationship with the Company. Subject to the foregoing, in the event of Mr. Irvine's death, this Warrant may be exercised by Mr. Irvine's legal representative through the Expiration Date. D. Payment of Taxes. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any stock transfer or other issuance tax in respect thereto; provided, however, that the Warrantholder shall be required to pay any and all taxes which may be payable in respect to any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the then Warrantholder as reflected upon the books of the Company. E. Transfer Restriction and Legend. 1. Neither this Warrant nor any interest or participation therein may be in any manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, at any time, without the consent of the Company, except by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise by operation of law. 2. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant Shares, nor any interest or participation in either, may be in any manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, except in compliance with applicable United States federal and state securities laws. This limitation shall be in addition to the limitation set forth in Section 1.5(a) above. Each certificate for Warrant Shares and any Warrant issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any Warrant bearing such a legend shall bear a legend similar in effect to the foregoing paragraph unless, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the Warrant need no longer be subject to the restriction contained herein. The provisions of this subsection 1.5 shall be binding upon all subsequent holders of this Warrant, if any. Warrant Shares transferred to the public as expressly permitted by, and in accordance with, the provisions of this Warrant shall thereafter cease to be deemed to be "Warrant Shares" for purposes hereof. 6 F. Divisibility of Warrant. This Warrant may be divided into warrants representing one Warrant Share or multiples thereof, upon surrender at the principal office of the Company on any Business Day, without charge to any Warrantholder, except as provided below. The Warrantholder will be charged for reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company in connection with the division of this Warrant into Warrants representing fewer than one thousand (1,000) Warrant Shares. Upon any such division, and, if permitted by subsection 1.5 and in accordance with the provisions thereof, the Warrants may be transferred of record to a name other than that of the Warrantholder of record; provided, however, that the Warrantholder shall be required to pay any and all transfer taxes with respect thereto. II. Reservation and Listing of Shares, Etc. All Warrant Shares which are issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall, upon issuance and payment of the Exercise Price, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue. During the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this Warrant, and shall at its expense use its best efforts to procure such listing thereof (subject to official notice of issuance) as then may be required on all stock exchanges on which the Common Stock is then listed. The Company shall, from time to time, take all such action as may be required to assure that the par value per share of the Warrant Shares is at all times equal to or less than the then effective Exercise Price. III. Exchange, Loss or Destruction of Warrant. If permitted by subsection 1.5 or 1.6 and in accordance with the provisions thereof, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company with a duly executed instrument of assignment and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the 7 loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of such bond or indemnification as the Company may reasonably require, and, in the case of such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. The term "Warrant" as used herein includes any Warrants issued in substitution or exchange of this Warrant. IV. Ownership of Warrant. The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer as provided in subsections 1.1 and 1.5 or in Section 3. V. Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price at which Warrant Shares may be purchased hereunder, and the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased upon exercise hereof, are subject to change or adjustment as follows: A. The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows: 1. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) issue by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock other securities of the Company (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation), the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted so that the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which he would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above, had this 8 Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event or any record date with respect thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph (a) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event. 2. In case the Company shall: (i) issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of its outstanding Common Stock, without any charge to such holders, entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share which is lower at the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants than the then current market price per share of Common Stock, or (ii) distribute to all holders of its shares of Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends or distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus and dividends or distributions referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection 5.1) or rights, options or warrants, or convertible or exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant and/or the Exercise Price in order to preserve the relative rights and interests of the Warrantholders, such adjustments to be made by the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company. B. 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 to any amount, consistent with applicable law, deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. C. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail 9 first class, postage prepaid, to all Warrantholders, notice of such adjustment. D. No Adjustment for Cash Dividends. No adjustment in respect of any cash dividends shall be made during the term of this Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant. E. Preservation of Purchase Rights Upon Merger, Consolidation, etc. In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale, transfer or lease to another corporation of all or substantially all of the property of the Company, the Company or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholders an agreement that the Warrantholders shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action; provided, however, that no adjustment in respect of cash dividends, interest or other income on or from such shares or other securities and property shall be made during the term of this Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant. Such agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The provisions of this subsection 5.5 shall apply similarly to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases. 6. Registration Rights 6.1 Piggy-Back Registration Rights. At any time following the closing of the IPO, whenever the Company proposes to register any Company Stock for its own or others account under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for a public offering for cash, but other than a registration relating to employee benefit plans, the Company will give each Warrantholder prompt written notice of its intent to do so. Upon the written request of any Warrantholder given within 30 days after receipt of such notice, the Company will use its best efforts to cause to be included in such registration all of the Company Stock which such Warrantholder requests, provided 10 that the Company shall have the right to reduce the number of shares included in such registration if the Company is advised in writing in good faith by any managing underwriter of the securities being offered pursuant to any registration statement under this Section 6.1 that the number of shares to be sold by persons other than the Company is greater than the number of such shares which can be offered without adversely affecting the offering, the Company may reduce pro rata the number of shares offered for the accounts of such persons (based upon the number of shares held by such person) to a number deemed satisfactory by such managing underwriter. 6.2 Other Arrangements. In connection with the registration of Warrant Shares in accordance with subsections 6.1, the holders who elect to have their Warrant Shares included therein shall so notify the Company and furnish the Company with such appropriate information (including, but not limited to, the manner in which such shares are to be sold) in connection therewith as the Company shall reasonably request. Such notification shall be made, and such information furnished, in writing within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of the notices specified in subsections 6.1. In connection with any such registration, the Company agrees to: 1. Use its best efforts to register or qualify the Warrant Shares for offer or sale under state securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in which the holders thereof shall reasonably designate, and use its best efforts to do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders to consummate the sale, transfer or other disposition of such Warrant Shares in any jurisdiction; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now qualified or to take any other action which would subject it to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction; 2. Furnish to the holders requesting registration of the Warrant Shares (i) at least three (3) calendar days before the filing thereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") a proof of the latest draft of the registration statement and, if requested, to extend invitations to the holders of the Piggy-Back Shares to 11 attend all meetings at which the Company and the underwriter of such offering are present at which such registration statement is discussed, and (ii) promptly after the filing thereof, a copy of the registration statement as filed and any amendment to such registration statement and all exhibits thereto and consents of experts filed or to be filed therewith; 3. Furnish to the holders requesting registration of the Warrant Shares at the Company's expense such number of copies of such registration statement and all amendments thereto and of such prospectuses (including each preliminary, amended, or supplemental prospectus) as such persons may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale or transfer of his or its Warrant Shares; 4. Make available to the Company's security holders, not later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the end of the Company's first fiscal quarter in which the first anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement occurs (or ninety (90) calendar days if the end of the first fiscal quarter in which the first anniversary of the effective date occurs coincides with the end of the Company's fiscal year), an earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve (12) consecutive months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act or Rule 158 promulgated under the Securities Act; 5. Use its best efforts to list the Warrant Shares on any securities exchange on which other shares of Common Stock are listed; 6. Afford to the persons requesting registration an opportunity to make such examination and inquiry into the financial position, business and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries as such persons or their counsel may reasonably deem necessary so as to satisfy themselves as to the accuracy and completeness of the registration statement; and 7. Pay all costs incident to such registration other than the cost of any counsel or other advisers to the holder requesting registration and any brokerage or underwriting 12 commissions in connection with the sale of the Warrant Shares so registered. The Company shall have sole control in connection with the preparation, filing, amending and supplementing of any registration statement, including the right to withdraw the same or delay the effectiveness thereof when, in the sole judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, the pendency of such registration statement or the effectiveness thereof would impose an undue burden upon the ability of the Company to proceed with any other material financing for its own account or any material corporate transaction, including, but not limited to, a reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or material acquisition of the securities or assets of another firm or corporation; and the Company shall be required to file a new registration statement or to proceed with such actions as reasonably may be required to cause the registration statement to become effective within a reasonable time after the consummation of the event or transaction which required such withdrawal or delay. 7. Miscellaneous. 7.1 Entire Agreement. This Warrant constitutes the entire agreement between the Company and the Warrantholder with respect to this Warrant and Warrant Shares. 7.2 Binding Effects; Benefits.

The Company, any Warrantholder or holders of Warrant Shares may, by an instrument in writing, waive compliance by the other party with any term or provision of this Warrant on the part of such other party hereto 13 to be performed or complied with. The waiver by any such party of a breach of any term or provision of this Warrant shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. 7.4 Section and Other Headings. The section and other headings contained in this Warrant are for reference purposes only and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Warrant or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Warrant. 7.5 Further Assurances. Each of the Company, the Warrantholders and holders of Warrant Shares shall do and perform all such further acts and things and execute and deliver all such other certificates, instruments and/or documents (including without limitation, such proxies and/or powers of attorney as may be necessary or appropriate) as any party hereto may, at any time and from time to time, reasonably request in connection with the performance of any of the provisions of this Warrant. 7.6 Notices. All demands, requests, notices and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally or sent by United States certified or registered first class mail, postage prepaid, to the parties hereto at the following addresses or at such other address as any party hereto shall hereafter specify by notice to the other party hereto: (a) if to the Company, addressed to: F.Y.I.

No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. With respect to any fraction of a share called for upon any exercise hereof, the Company shall pay to the Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the current market price (as determined as of the date of exercise, and with reference to the applicable trading market, in accordance with paragraph (d) of subsection 5.1) of a share of such stock as of the date of such exercise. 7.9 Rights of the Holder. The Warrantholder shall not, solely by virtue of this Warrant, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at law or in equity. 7.10 Governing Law. This Warrant shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of Delaware and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of such State applicable to contracts made and performed in Delaware. 7.11 Effect of Stock Splits, etc. Whenever any rights under this Agreement are available only when at least a specified minimum number of Warrant Shares is involved, such number shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, combination of securities into a smaller number of securities or reclassification of stock. 15 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be signed by its duly authorized officer.
