Time, or (ii) the immediately succeeding Trading Day if it is received by
facsimile or otherwise after 12:00 noon Eastern Time on a Trading Day or at any
time on a day which is not a Trading Day. No Advance Notice may be deemed
delivered on a day that is not a Trading Day.

         Section 2.3. Closings. On each Advance Date (i) the Company shall
deliver to the Investor shares of the Company's Common Stock, representing the
amount of the Advance specified in such Advance Notice pursuant to Section 2.1
herein, registered in the name of the Investor and (ii) simultaneously, the
Investor shall deliver to the Company the amount of the Advance specified in the

or prior to the Advance Date, each of the Company and the Investor shall deliver
to the other all documents, instruments and writings required to be delivered by
either of them pursuant to this Agreement in order to implement and effect the
transactions contemplated herein. The extent the Company has not paid the fees,
expenses, and disbursements of the Investor or the Company's counsel in
accordance with Section 12.4, the amount of such fees, expenses, and
disbursements may be deducted by the Investor (and shall be paid to the relevant
party) directly out of the proceeds of the Advance with no reduction in the
amount of shares of the Company's Common Stock to be delivered on such Advance
Date.

         Section 2.4. Termination of Investment. The obligation of the Investor
to make an Advance to the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate
permanently (including with respect to an Advance Date that has not yet
occurred) in the event that (i) there shall occur any stop order or suspension
of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement for an aggregate of fifty
(50) Trading Days, other than due to the acts of the Investor, during the
Commitment Period, or (ii) the Company shall at any time fail materially to
comply with the requirements of Article VI and such failure is not cured within
thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Investor, provided,
however, that this termination provision shall not apply to any period
commencing upon the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Registration
Statement and ending upon the date on which such post effective amendment is
declared effective by the SEC.

         Section 2.5. Agreement to Advance Funds. The Investor agrees to advance
the amount specified in the Advance Notice to the Company after the completion

Company's Common Stock after receipt of an Advance Notice and the Company fails
to perform its obligations as mandated in Section 2.3, and specifically the
Company fails to deliver to the Investor on the Advance Date the shares of
Common Stock corresponding to the applicable Advance, the Company acknowledges
that the Investor shall suffer financial hardship and therefore shall be liable
for any and all losses, commissions, fees, or financial hardship caused to the
Investor.


                                  ARTICLE III.

         Investor hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
Company that the following are true and correct as of the date hereof and as of
each Advance Date:

         Section 3.1. Organization and Authorization. The Investor is duly
incorporated or organized and validly existing in the jurisdiction of its
incorporation or organization and has all requisite power and authority to
purchase and hold the securities issuable hereunder. The decision to invest and
the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Investor, the performance
by such Investor of its obligations hereunder and the consummation by such

<PAGE>

proceedings on the part of the Investor. The undersigned has the right, power
and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and all other instruments
(including, without limitations, the Registration Rights Agreement), on behalf
of the Investor. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Investor and, assuming the execution and delivery hereof and acceptance thereof
by the Company, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the
Investor, enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms.

         Section 3.2. Evaluation of Risks. The Investor has such knowledge and
experience in financial, tax and business matters as to be capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of, and bearing the economic risks entailed by, an
investment in the Company and of protecting its interests in connection with
this transaction. It recognizes that its investment in the Company involves a
high degree of risk.

         Section 3.3. No Legal Advice From the Company. The Investor
acknowledges that it had the opportunity to review this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement with his or its own legal counsel
and investment and tax advisors. The Investor is relying solely on such counsel

respect to this investment, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the securities laws of any jurisdiction.

         Section 3.4. Investment Purpose. The securities are being purchased by
the Investor for its own account, and for investment purposes. The Investor

recognize any purported assignment or transfer except in accordance with
applicable Federal and state securities laws. No other person has or will have a
direct or indirect beneficial interest in the securities. The Investor agrees
not to sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer the Investor's securities unless

advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the
Company and its management. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence
investigations conducted by such Investor or its advisors, if any, or its
representatives shall modify, amend or affect the Investor's right to rely on
the Company's representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. The
Investor understands that its investment involves a high degree of risk. The
Investor is in a position regarding the Company, which, based upon employment,
family relationship or economic bargaining power, enabled and enables such
Investor to obtain information from the Company in order to evaluate the merits
and risks of this investment. The Investor has sought such accounting, legal and
tax advice, as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment
decision with respect to this transaction.

any investors who purchase stock in the Company in a public offering, to money
managers or to securities analysts, provided, however, that notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company will, as hereinabove provided,
immediately notify the advisors and representatives of the Investor and, if any,
underwriters, of any event or the existence of any circumstance (without any
obligation to disclose the specific event or circumstance) of which it becomes
aware, constituting non-public information (whether or not requested of the
Company specifically or generally during the course of due diligence by such
persons or entities), which, if not disclosed in the prospectus included in the
Registration Statement would cause such prospectus to include a material
misstatement or to omit a material fact required to be stated therein in order
to make the statements, therein, in light of the circumstances in which they
were made, not misleading. Nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall be
construed to mean that such persons or entities other than the Investor (without
the

                                       19

written consent of the Investor prior to disclosure of such information) may not
obtain non-public information in the course of conducting due diligence in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and nothing herein shall prevent any
such persons or entities from notifying the Company of their opinion that based
on such due diligence by such persons or entities, that the Registration
Statement contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits a material fact
required to be stated in the Registration Statement or necessary to make the
statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading.
