event this Note shall have been lost or destroyed) to the Company at its

<PAGE>

                 (ii) Promptly after receipt of the Optional Conversion Notice
and surrender of this Note (or, in lieu thereof, by delivery of an appropriate
lost security affidavit in the event this Note shall have been lost or
destroyed), the Company shall issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and
delivered, to the Holder, registered in such name or names as the Holder may
direct in writing, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares
of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such portion of this Note. Such
conversion shall be deemed to have been effected, and the Conversion Price shall
be determined, as of the close of business on the date on which Optional
Conversion Notice shall have been received by the Company and this Note shall
have been surrendered as aforesaid (or, in lieu thereof, an appropriate lost
security affidavit has been delivered to the Company), and at such time, the
rights of the Holder shall cease with respect to the principal amount of the
Notes being converted, and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any
certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon
such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record
of the shares represented thereby.

                 (iii) No fractional shares shall be issued upon any Optional
Conversion of this Note into Common Stock. If any fractional share of Common
Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section
5(a)(iii), be delivered upon such conversion, the Company, in lieu of delivering
such fractional share, shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the
Market Price of such fractional share of Common Stock. In case the principal
amount of this Note exceeds the principal amount being converted, the Company
shall, upon such conversion, execute and deliver to the Holder, at the expense
of the Company, a new Note for the principal amount of this Note surrendered
which is not to be converted.

            (b) Company Mandated Conversion.

                  (i) This Note shall be convertible, at the option of the
Company ("Company Mandated Conversion"), into such number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is obtained by: (a) adding (i) the
principal amount of this Note to be converted and (ii) the amount of any accrued
but unpaid interest with respect to such portion of this Note to be converted;
and (b) dividing the result obtained pursuant to clause (a) above by the
Conversion Price then in effect, provided that such conversion shall only occur
if: (x) (i) the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal exchange or
market on which it is then traded has equaled or exceeded $2.00 per share for
the 10 consecutive Trading Days immediately prior to the date of conversion and
the average daily volume during such 10 day trading period exceeds 10,000
shares; or (ii) the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal exchange
or market on which it is then traded has equaled or exceeded $3.00 per share for
the 10 consecutive Trading Days immediately prior to the date of conversion
irrespective of any average daily trading volume, and (y) all of the shares of
Common Stock are then covered by an effective registration statement filed under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, permitting the resale of such shares of
Common Stock without restrictions. The Company shall provide written notice of
the Company Mandated Conversion within five (5) business days following the
satisfaction of the foregoing conditions ("Company Mandated Conversion Notice")
by mailing, by first class mail, postage prepaid, a copy of such notice to the
Holder. The Company Mandated Conversion Notice shall include the effective date
of the Company Mandated Conversion ("Company Mandated Conversion Date"), along

<PAGE>

                  (ii) Promptly after the Company Mandated Conversion Date, the
Holder of this Note shall deliver this Note (or, in lieu thereof, an appropriate
lost security affidavit in the event this Note shall have been lost or
destroyed) to the Company at its principal office (or such other office or
agency of the Company as the Company may designate by notice in writing to the
Holder), together with a statement of the name or names (with address) in which
the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issued.
Promptly following the surrender of this Note (or, in lieu thereof, delivery of
an appropriate lost security affidavit in the event this Note shall have been
lost or destroyed) as aforesaid, the Company shall issue and deliver, or cause
to be issued and delivered, to the Holder, registered in such name or names as
the Holder may direct in writing, a certificate or certificates for the number
of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note. To
the extent permitted by law, such conversion shall be deemed to have been
effected, and the Conversion Price shall be determined, as of the close of
business on the Company Mandated Conversion Date, and at such time, the rights
of the Holder shall cease with respect to the Note being converted, and the
Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for
shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to
have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby.

                  (iii) No fractional shares shall be issued upon any Company
Mandated Conversion of this Note into Common Stock. If any fractional share of
Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this
Section 5(b)(iii), be delivered upon such conversion, the Company, in lieu of
delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash
equal to the Market Price of such fractional share of Common Stock.

      6. Adjustment to Conversion Price.

            (a) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while
existing obligations under the Note remain outstanding, pay a dividend or make a
distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue
by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its
capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation),
then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date upon which
such change shall become effective, shall be adjusted by the Company so that the
Holder thereafter converting this Note shall be entitled to receive the number
of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock which the Holder would have
received if the Note had been converted immediately prior to such event upon
payment of a Conversion Price that has been adjusted to reflect a fair
allocation of the economics of such event to the Holder, without regard to any
conversion limitation specified in this Section 6. Such adjustments shall be
made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

            (b) If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital
stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another
corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another
corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition,
lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter
have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and
conditions herein specified and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock
immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion of this Note, without regard to
any conversion limitation specified in Section 6, such shares of stock,
securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or
in exchange for a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares
of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion of this Note,
had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer
or other disposition not taken place, without regard to any conversion
limitation specified in Section 6, and in any such case appropriate provision
shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end
that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for
adjustment of the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities
or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Company shall
not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition
unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor
corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or
merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or
other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver
to the Holder, at the last address of the Holder appearing on the books of the
Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the
foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase, without regard to
any conversion limitation specified in Section 6, and the other obligations
under this Note. The provisions of this Section 6(b) shall similarly apply to
successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales,
transfers or other dispositions.

            (c) In case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a
distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution
made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the
continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than cash
dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned
surplus or dividends or distributions referred to in Section 6(a)), or
subscription rights or warrants, the Conversion Price to be in effect after such
payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by
the Market Price of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less
the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith) of
said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription
rights or Notes, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Market Price immediately
prior to such payment date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever
such a payment date is fixed.

            (d) An adjustment to the Conversion Price shall become effective
immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution
and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an
adjustment.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

            (e) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to
this Section 6, the Holder shall become entitled to receive any shares of
capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of
such other shares so receivable upon conversion of this Note shall be subject
thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly
equivalent as practicable to the provisions contained in this Note.

            (f) In case at any time:

                  (i) the Company shall declare any dividend upon its Common
Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company payable in
cash or stock or make any other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock
or any such other class or series of capital stock;

                  (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the
holders of its Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the
Company any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; or

                  (iii) there shall be any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any acquisition or a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company;

            then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give, by
delivery in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested,
addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of
the Company, (a) at least 20 Business Days' prior written notice of the date on
which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such
dividend, distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote
in respect of any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 6(f) and (b)
in the case of any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 6(f), at
least 20 Business Days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall
take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (a) shall also
specify, in the case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights,
the date on which the holders of Common Stock or such other class or series of
capital stock shall be entitled thereto and such notice in accordance with the
foregoing clause (b) shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common
Stock and such other series or class of capital stock shall be entitled to
exchange their Common Stock and other stock for securities or other property
deliverable upon consummation of the applicable event set forth in clause (iii)
of this Section 6(f).

            (g) Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, then and in each
such case the Company shall give prompt written notice thereof, by delivery in
person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed
to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the
Company, which notice shall state the Conversion Price resulting from such
adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method upon which such
calculation is based.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

            (h) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of
its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion
of this Note as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall
then be issuable upon the conversion of this Note. The Company covenants that
all shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly
issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issue thereof, and, without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, and that the Company will from time to time take all such
action as may be requisite to assure that the par value per share of the Common
Stock is at all times equal to or less than the Conversion Price in effect at
the time. The Company shall not take any action which results in any adjustment
of the Conversion Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and
issuable after such action upon conversion of this Note would exceed the total
number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's articles of
association or memorandum of association.

            (i) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the holders thereof for
any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be
required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the
Holder.

            (j) The Company will not at any time close its transfer books
against the transfer, as applicable, of this Note or of any shares of Common
Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of this Note in any manner which
interferes with the timely conversion of this Note, except as may otherwise be
required to comply with applicable securities laws.

constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:

            (a) the failure by the Company to perform or observe in any material
respect any material covenant or agreement of the Company contained in the
Purchase Agreement, which remains uncured for a period of five (5) business days
from the date the Company is notified of such default; or

            (b) any representation or warranty made by the Company under any of
the Transaction Documents was, when made, untrue or misleading, the result of
which is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect;

            (c) the failure of the Company to make any payment of principal or
interest on this Note when due, whether at maturity, upon acceleration or
otherwise and the continuation of such failure for a period of five (5) business

            (d) there shall have occurred an acceleration of the stated maturity
of any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company (other than Company Notes)

principal amount (which acceleration is not rescinded, annulled or otherwise
cured within fifteen (15) business days of receipt by the Company of notice of
such acceleration);

                                      -9-

            (e) the Company makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or

or insolvent; or any order for relief with respect to the Company is entered
under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy or insolvency law; or
the Company petitions or applies to any tribunal for the appointment of a
custodian, trustee, receiver or liquidator of the Company or of any substantial
part of the assets of the Company, or commences any proceeding relating to it
under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of
debt, dissolution or liquidation law of any jurisdiction; or any such petition
or application is filed, or any such proceeding is commenced, against the
Company and either (i) the Company by any act indicates its approval thereof,
consents thereto or acquiescence therein or (ii) such petition application or
proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days; or

            (f) a final, non-appealable judgment which, in the aggregate with
other outstanding final judgments against the Company and its Subsidiaries,
exceeds Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($200,000) shall be rendered
against the Company or a Subsidiary and within sixty (60) days after entry
thereof, such judgment is not discharged or execution thereof stayed pending
appeal, or within sixty (60) days after the expiration of such stay, such
judgment is not discharged.

            Upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default all unpaid
