shares (the "Purchased Shares") of its authorized, but unissued shares of Common
Stock at a purchase price of $4.00 per share. In addition, the Company has
authorized the issuance to the Investors of warrants (the "Warrants") to
purchase an aggregate of 312,500 to 625,000 shares of its authorized, but
unissued shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the average
closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock over the fifteen (15) trading
days ending on the third day prior to the Closing Date. The form of Warrant is
attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1. (The Purchased Shares, any Additional Purchased
                   ------------
Shares issued pursuant to Section 1.3, and the Warrants are collectively
referred to as the "Securities").

     Section 1.2.  Purchase and Sale of the Securities.
     --------------------------------------------------

     (a) The Closing. The Company agrees to issue and sell to the Investors,
         -----------
and, subject to and in reliance upon the representations, warranties, terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the Investors, severally but not jointly, agree to
purchase, that number of the Purchased Shares subscribed for and set forth
opposite their respective names on Schedule I attached hereto. The aggregate
                                   ---------
purchase price for the Purchased Shares being purchased by each Investor is set
forth opposite such Investor's name on Schedule I. Such purchase and sale shall
                                       ----------
take place at a closing (the "Closing") to be held at the offices of the Company
on January 4, 2000, or on such other date and at such time as may be mutually
agreed upon by the Company and the Investors (the "Closing Date"). At the
Closing the Company will deliver to each Investor certificates for the number of
Purchased Shares and Warrants, respectively, set forth opposite such Investor's
name on Schedule I against delivery to the Company of a check or wire transfer
        ----------
in the amount set forth opposite such Investor's name on Schedule I. In the
                                                         ----------
event the Investors do not deliver to the Company checks or wire transfers in an
aggregate amount of at least five million dollars ($5,000,000) on the Closing
Date, the Company shall, upon return of any funds advanced by the Investors,
have the right to terminate this Agreement at its sole discretion. Additionally,
in the event the Company, notwithstanding its best efforts, is unable to have
certificates for the Purchased Shares available for the Closing, such
certificates shall be delivered to the Investors within five (5) business days
of the Closing or such Investors shall have the right to the return of all funds
advanced by them, with interest, and to terminate this Agreement at their sole
discretion.

     (b) Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use all of the proceeds from the
         ---------------
sale of the Purchased Shares of $5,000,000 to 10,000,000 for general working
capital purposes.

     Section 1.3. Contingent Issuance of Additional Purchased Shares and
     -------------------------------------------------------------------
Warrants. In the event that at any time during the four (4) months period
--------
commencing on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the average bid price
per share of the Company's Common Stock for fifteen (15) consecutive trading
days shall be less than $4.00 per share, then the Company shall promptly (but in
no event later than ten (10) days following the triggering date) issue to the
Investors additional shares ("Additional Purchased Shares") in an amount
necessary to make up the difference between $4.00 per share and the average bid
price per share. The formula for determining the number of Additional Purchased
Shares to be issued to each Investor under this Section 1.3 shall be as follows:
(a) four (4) divided by said average bid price per share (b) multiplied by the
number of Purchased Shares purchased by such Investor (c) minus the number of
Purchased Shares purchased by such Investor. Such Additional Purchased Shares
shall not be subject to reclamation by the Company in the event the average bid
price per share of the Company's Common Stock subsequently increases to $4.00 or
above. The Investors shall not take any affirmative actions designed to reduce
the average bid price per share of the Company's Common Stock in order to
trigger the issuance of Additional Purchased Shares contemplated in this Section
1.3.

                                    -----------

of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of
the circumstances then existing;

     (g)  at the request of any Investor, use its best efforts to furnish on

the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act, and such letter

each other person, if any, who controls such seller or underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which such seller, underwriter or controlling
person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out
of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Common
Stock was registered under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment
or

                                       13
<PAGE>

necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each
such seller, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action,
provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and
to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such
seller, any such underwriter or any such controlling person in writing
specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.

     Section 4.12. Incidental Registration. If the Company at any time proposes
     -------------------------------------
to register any of its securities under the Securities Act for sale to the
public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders
or both, each such time it will give written notice to all then holders of
outstanding Purchased Shares of its intention so to do. Upon the written request
of any such holder, received by the Company within 30 days after the giving of
any such notice by the Company, to register any of its Purchased Shares (which
request will state the intended method of disposition thereof), the Company will
use its best efforts to cause the Purchased Shares as to which registration will
have been so requested to be included in the securities to be covered by the
registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent
requisite to permit the sale or other disposition by the holder (in accordance
with its written request) of such Purchased Shares so registered. In the event
that any registration pursuant to this Section 4.12 will be, in whole or in
part, an underwritten public offering of Common Stock, the number of shares of
Purchased Shares to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced (pro rata
among the requesting holders based upon the number of shares of Purchased Shares
owned by such holders) if and to the extent that the managing underwriter will
be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of
the securities to be sold by the Company therein, provided, however, that such
number of shares of Purchased Shares will not be reduced if any shares are to be
included in such underwriting for the account of any person other than the
Company or requesting holders of Purchased Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions, the Company may withdraw any registration statement referred to in
this Section 4.12 without thereby incurring any liability to the holders of
Purchased Shares.

     Section 4.13. Expenses. The Company and the Investors will each bear their
     ----------------------
own legal and other expenses with respect to this Agreement, except that the
Company shall reimburse the Investors up to $30,000.00 with respect to the legal
fees actually incurred by Investors in connection with this Agreement and up to
$15,000 with respect to travel, investigation, and due diligence expenses
actually incurred by Investors in connection with this Agreement.

     Section 4.14. Outside Counsel. The Company shall work with qualified
     -----------------------------
outside counsel selected by the Company and acceptable to the Investors,
following the Closing Date for so long as the Investors, in the aggregate, own
at least one-half of the number of Purchased Shares originally purchased
hereunder.

                                       14

     Section 4.15. Press Release. The Company shall provide an advance copy of
     ---------------------------

of, such press releases or public announcements on behalf of the Investors.

     Section 4.16. Reporting. The Company shall timely file such reports,
     -----------------------
notices and/or forms with the Commission and any other applicable federal or
state agencies as are necessary or appropriate as a result of the sale of

V.   REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF INVESTORS
     ------------------------------------------------------

     Section 5.1. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce the
     -------------------------------------------
Company to enter into this Agreement, each Investor, severally and not jointly,
represents and warrants that:

     (a)  This Agreement and all other documents and instruments executed by
the Investor pursuant hereto, have each been duly executed and delivered by the
Investor and each is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Investor
enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms. All consents,
approvals or authorizations of any person, and all qualifications, designations,
declarations or filings with any governmental authority, on the part of the
Investor required as a condition precedent to the valid execution and delivery
of this Agreement shall have been obtained or completed prior to, and be
effective as of, the Closing.

     (b)  The Investor is acquiring the Securities for the Investor's own
account, for investment, and not with a view to any "distribution" thereof
within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Investor has no contract,
agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or pledge to any
person the Securities or any part thereof. The Investor has no present plans to
enter into any such contract, agreement or arrangement. The Investor understands
the meaning of these representations and warranties.

     (c)  No oral representations have been made or oral information
furnished to the undersigned in connection with this Agreement which is
inconsistent with the content of this Agreement.

     (d)  Based on the Company's representations and warranties and the other
terms and conditions herein, the Investor does not seek to obtain any additional
information regarding the Purchased Shares or the Company.

     (e)  The Investor understands that the Company has no prior track record
of profitability. The Investor is aware that an investment in the Company is
speculative and involves certain risks.

     (f)  The Investor understands that because the Securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act, the Investor cannot dispose of any or all
of the Securities unless such

                                       15
<PAGE>

Securities are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or exemptions
from such registration are available. The Investor acknowledges and understands
that, except as provided in this Agreement, the Investor has no independent
right to require the Company to register the Securities under the Securities Act
or any state securities law. The Investor further understands that the Company
will, as a condition to the transfer of any of the Securities, require that the
request for transfer be accompanied by opinion of counsel, in form and substance
reasonable satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer
does not result in violation of the Securities Act, unless such transfer is
covered by an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. The
Investor understands that each certificate representing the Securities may bear
the following legends or ones substantially similar thereto:

          These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of
          1933 for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale, and
          may not be sold, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise
          transferred without an effective registration statement for such
          shares under the Securities Act of 1933, or an opinion of counsel for
          the corporation that registration is not required under such act.

          The Securities represented by this certificate are subject to the
          terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase and Subscription Agreement
          dated January 3, 2000. A copy of such agreement is on file at the
          principal executive offices of the corporation and the corporation
          will furnish copies of such agreement to the holder of this
          certificate upon request and without charge.

     (g)  The Investor is knowledgeable and experienced in the making of
venture capital investments, is able to bear the economic risk of loss of the
Investor's investment in the Company, has been granted the opportunity to make a
thorough investigation of the affairs of the Company, and has availed itself of
such opportunity to the extent the Investor has deemed necessary, either
directly or through the Investor's authorized representative.

     (h)  The Investor has been advised that the Securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act and that the Company in issuing the
Securities to the Investor is relying upon, and will rely upon, among other
things, the representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this
Article V in concluding that each such issuance is a "private offering" and does
not require compliance with the registration provisions of the Securities Act.

     (i)  The Investor (or to the extent applicable, its purchaser
representative) is either (1) an "accredited investor" as that term is defined
in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act or (2) has the knowledge
and experience in financial and business matters required in Rule 506 of
Regulation D under the Securities Act.

     (j)  No Investor is, directly or indirectly (through any contract,
arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise), the beneficial owner of
the Purchased Shares of any other Investor. Without limiting the foregoing, no
Investor has (1) voting power, which

                                       16
<PAGE>

includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, the Purchased Shares of
any other Investor or (2) investment power, which includes the power to dispose,
or direct the disposition of, the Purchased Shares of any other Investor. While
the Investors reserve the right to make filings under Regulation 13D-G of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the execution of this Agreement shall not be
deemed an acknowledgment by any Investor that it is a member of a "group" as
defined in Rule 13d-5 under said Regulation 13D-G.

     Section 5.2.  Covenants.
     -----------------------

     (a)  Each Investor, severally and not jointly, covenants that it will
not sell, transfer or assign the Securities for a period of one year following
the Closing Date. A pledge or hypothecation shall not be deemed a sale, transfer
or assignment, and prior to foreclosure no transfer of shares pledged or
hypothecated shall be made by the Company on its books (except to any extent
required by law).

     Notwithstanding the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section
5.2 of this Agreement, the following shall be permitted transfers ("Permitted

trust, partnership, limited liability company, family limited partnership or
other similar entity, provided that the purpose of any such corporation, trust,

similar entity shall be to hold such Securities (or shares or interests in other
entities or properties in which the Investor is an investor) for the benefit of
the Investor or his/her family members and/or relatives;

          (2)  Transfers of Securities between an Investor and such Investor's
guardian or conservator;

          (3)  Transfers of Securities between an Investor and such Investor's

and

          (5)  Transfers of Securities among the Investors.

Any Securities sold, transferred or assigned pursuant to a Permitted Transfer
shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement.

     (b)  To the extent the Company provides an Investor with Confidential
Information (as defined below) the provisions of this Section 5.2 shall apply to
such Investor; provided that no Investor shall be liable in any respect for any
breach of the provisions of this Section 5.2 by any other Investor.

                                       17
