                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

         Section 3.1. Representation and Warranties of the Company. The Company
hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Purchaser:

                  (a) Organization, Good Standing and Power. The Company is a
         corporation duly incorporated validly existing and in good standing
         under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate
         authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to
         carry on its business as now being conducted. The Company does not have
         any subsidiaries and does not own more than fifty percent (50%) of or
         control any other business entity except as set forth in the SEC
         Documents. The Company is duly qualified to do business and is in good
         standing as a foreign corporation in every jurisdiction in which the
         nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such
         qualification necessary, other than those in which the failure so to
         qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (b) Authorization, Enforcement. (i) The Company has the
         requisite corporate power and corporate authority to enter into and
         perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Registration Rights
         Agreement, the Escrow Agreement (collectively, the "Transaction
         Documents") and to issue the Draw Down Shares pursuant to their
         respective terms, (ii) the execution and delivery of the Transaction
         Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions
         contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all
         necessary corporate action and no further consent or authorization of
         the Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders is required, and
         (iii) the Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered
         by the Company and at the Initial Closing shall constitute valid and
         binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in
         accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be
         limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
         moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws
         relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors'
         rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general
         application. The Company has duly and validly authorized and reserved
         for issuance shares of Common Stock sufficient in number for the
         issuance of the Draw Down Shares.

                  (c) Capitalization. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(c),
         the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 30,000,000
         shares of Common Stock of which 21,490,000 shares are issued and
         outstanding and no shares of preferred stock are issued and
         outstanding. All of the outstanding shares of the Company's Common
         Stock have been duly and validly authorized and are fully paid and
         non-assessable, except as set forth in the SEC Documents. Except as set
         forth in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and as
         set forth in the SEC Documents, or on Schedule 3.1(c) hereto, no shares
         of Common Stock are entitled to preemptive rights or registration
         rights and there are no outstanding options, warrant, scrip, rights to
         subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating
         to, or securities or rights convertible

                                       4
<PAGE>

         into, any shares of capital stock of the Company. Furthermore, except
         as set forth in this Agreement and as set forth in the SEC Documents or
         on Schedule 3.1(c), there are no contracts, commitments,
         understandings, or arrangements by which the Company is or may become
         bound to issue additional shares of the capital stock of the Company or
         options, securities or rights convertible into shares of capital stock
         of the Company. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(c), the Company is
         not a party to any agreement granting registration rights to any person
         with respect to any of its equity or debt securities. Except as set
         forth on Schedule 3.1(c), the Company is not a party to, and it has no
         knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of any
         shares of the capital stock of the Company. Except as set forth in the
         SEC Documents or on Schedule 3.1(c) hereto, the offer and sale of all
         capital stock, convertible securities, rights, warrants, or options of
         the Company issued prior to the Initial Closing complied with all
         applicable federal and state securities laws, and to the Company's
         knowledge, no stockholder has a right of rescission or damages with
         respect thereto which would have a Material Adverse Effect on the
         Company's financial condition or operating results. The Company has
         made available to the Purchaser true and correct copies of the
         Company's articles or certificate of incorporation as in effect on the
         date hereof (the "Charter"), and the Company's bylaws as in effect on
         the date hereof (the "Bylaws"). The Company has not received any notice
         from the Principal Market questioning or threatening the continued
         inclusion of the Common Stock on such market.

                  (d) Issuance of Shares. The Shares to be issued under this
         Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
         and, when paid for and issued in accordance with the terms hereof and
         the Warrant, the Shares shall be validly issued and outstanding, fully
         paid and non-assessable, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to all
         rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock.

                  (e) No Conflicts. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(e), the
         execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company
         and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated
         herein do not and will not (i) violate any provision of the Company's
         Charter or Bylaws, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an
         event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a
         default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment,
         acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of
         trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or
         obligation to which the Company is a party, (iii) create or impose a
         lien, charge or encumbrance on any property of the Company under any
         agreement or any commitment to which the Company is a party or by which
         the Company is bound or by which any of its respective properties or
         assets are bound, or (iv) result in a violation of any federal, state,
         local or other foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or
         decree (including any federal or state securities laws and regulations)
         applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or by which any
         property or asset of the Company or any of its subsidiaries are bound
         or affected, except, in all cases, for such conflicts, defaults,
         termination, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as
         would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
         Effect. The business of the Company and its subsidiaries is not being
         conducted in violation of any laws, ordinances or regulations of any
         governmental entity, except for possible violations

                                       5
<PAGE>

         which singularly or in the aggregate do not and will not have a
         Material Adverse Effect. The Company is not required under any federal,
         state or local law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent,
         authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any
         court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or
         perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, or issue and sell
         the Shares in accordance with the terms hereof (other than any filings
         which may be required to be made by the Company with the SEC or state
         securities administrators subsequent to the Initial Closing and any
         registration statement which may be filed pursuant hereto); provided
         that, for purpose of the representation made in this sentence, the
         Company is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant
         representations and agreements of the Purchaser herein.

                  (f) SEC Documents, Financial Statements. The Common Stock of
         the Company is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities
         and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and, except
         as disclosed in the SEC Documents or on Schedule 3.1(f) hereto, the
         Company has timely filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and
         other documents required to be filed by it with the SEC pursuant to the
         reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, including material filed
         pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (all of the
         foregoing including filings incorporated by reference therein being
         referred to herein as the "SEC Documents"). The Company has delivered
         or made available to the Purchaser, through the EDGAR system or
         otherwise, true and complete copies of the SEC Documents filed with the
         SEC since December 31, 1998. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(f),
         the Company has not provided to the Purchaser any information which,
         according to applicable law, rule or regulation, should have been
         disclosed publicly by the Company but which has not been so disclosed,
         other than with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement. As of their respective filing dates, the SEC Documents
         complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange
         Act or the Securities Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations
         of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such documents, and, as
         of their respective filing dates, none of the SEC Documents contained
         any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material
         fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
         statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
         made, not misleading. The financial statements of the Company included
         in the SEC Documents comply as to form in all material respects with
         applicable accounting requirements under GAAP and the published rules
         and regulations of the SEC or other applicable rules and regulations
         with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in
         accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods
         involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial
         statements or the notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited
         interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may
         be condensed or summary statements), and fairly present in all material
         respects the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as
         of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for
         the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements,
         to normal year-end audit adjustments).

                  (g) Subsidiaries. The SEC Documents or Schedule 3.1(g) hereto
         sets forth each subsidiary of the Company, showing the jurisdiction of
         its incorporation or organization and showing the percentage of the
         Company's ownership of the outstanding

                                       6
<PAGE>

         stock or other interests of such subsidiary. For the purposes of this
         Agreement, "subsidiary" shall mean any corporation or other entity of
         which at least a majority of the securities or other ownership
         interests having ordinary voting power (absolutely or contingently) for
         the election of directors or other persons performing similar functions
         are at the time owned directly or indirectly by the Company and/or any
         of its other subsidiaries. All of the issued and outstanding shares of
         capital stock of each subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly
         issued, and are fully paid and non-assessable. There are no outstanding
         preemptive, conversion or other rights, options, warrants or agreements
         granted or issued by or binding upon any subsidiary for the purchase or
         acquisition of any shares of capital stock of any subsidiary or any
         other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the
         rights to subscribe for any shares of such capital stock. Neither the
         Company nor any subsidiary is subject to any obligation (contingent or
         otherwise) to repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire any shares of
         the capital stock of any subsidiary or any convertible securities,
         rights, warrants or options of the type described in the preceding
         sentence. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is a party to, nor has
         any knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of
         any shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary.

                  (h) No Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of the
         financial statement contained in the most recently filed Form 10-Q (or
         10-QSB) or Form 10-K (or 10-KSB), whichever is most current, no
         Material Adverse Effect has occurred or exists with respect to the
         Company, except as disclosed in the SEC Documents or on Schedule 3.1(h)
         hereto.

                  (i) No Undisclosed Liabilities. Except as disclosed in the SEC
         Documents or on Schedule 3.1(i) hereto, neither the Company nor any of
         its subsidiaries has any liabilities, obligations, claims or losses
         (whether liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, absolute,
         accrued, contingent or otherwise) that would be required to be
         disclosed on a balance sheet of the Company or any subsidiary
         (including the notes thereto) in conformity with GAAP which are not
         disclosed in the SEC Documents, other than those incurred in the
         ordinary course of the Company's or its subsidiaries' respective
         businesses since such date and which, individually or in the aggregate,
         do not or would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or
         its subsidiaries.

                  (j) No Undisclosed Events or Circumstances. Since the date of
         the financial statement contained in the most recently filed Form 10- Q
         (or 10-QSB) or Form 10-K (or 10-KSB), whichever is most current, no
         event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the
         Company or its businesses, properties, prospects, operations or
         financial condition, that, under applicable law, rule or regulation,
         requires public disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by
         the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed
         in the SEC Documents.

                  (k) Indebtedness. The SEC Documents or Schedule 3.1(k) hereto
         sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured
         Indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary, or for which the Company
         or any subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement,
         "Indebtedness" shall mean (A) any

                                       7
<PAGE>

         liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $250,000
         (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of
         business), (B) all guaranties, endorsements and contingent obligations
         in respect of Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or
         should be reflected in the Company's balance sheet (or the notes
         thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments

         those indicated in the SEC Documents or on Schedule 3.1(1) hereto or
         such that do not cause a Material Adverse Effect. All said leases of
         the Company and each of its subsidiaries are valid and subsisting and
         in full force and effect.

                  (m) Actions Pending. There is no action, suit, claim,
         investigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the
         Company, threatened against the Company or any subsidiary which

         them unless the failure to possess such franchises, permits, licenses,
         consents and other governmental or regulatory authorizations and
         approvals, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
         expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         Returns which it is required to file under applicable laws; all such
         Tax Returns are true and accurate and have been prepared in compliance

         where the Company does not file tax returns that the Company or any
         subsidiary is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. There
         are no foreign, federal, state or local tax audits or administrative or
         judicial proceedings pending or being conducted with respect to the

         authority; and, except as disclosed above, no written notice indicating

         Company or any subsidiary from any foreign, federal, state or local
         taxing authority. There are no material unresolved questions or claims
         concerning the Company's Tax liability. The Company (A) has not
         executed or entered into a closing agreement pursuant to ss. 7121 of

         knowledge that the IRS has proposed any such adjustment or change in
         accounting method, or has any application pending with any taxing

         that relate to the business or operations of the Company. The Company

         Revenue Code.

                  The Company has not made an election under ss. 341(f) of the

         power and authority to enter into and perform the Transaction Documents
         and to purchase the Shares being sold to it hereunder. The execution,

         terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
         bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,

                                       13
<PAGE>

         moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws
         relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors'
         rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general
         application

                  (c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of
         this Agreement and the consummation by the Purchaser of the
         transactions contemplated hereby or relating hereto do not and will not
         (i) result in a violation of the Purchaser's charter documents or
         bylaws or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event
         which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default)
         under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment,
         acceleration or cancellation of any agreement, indenture or instrument
         to which the Purchaser is a party, or result in a violation of any law,
         rule, or regulation, or any order, judgment or decree of any court or
         governmental agency applicable to the Purchaser or its properties
         (except for such conflicts, defaults and violations as would not,
         individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on
         Purchaser). The Purchaser is not required to obtain any consent,
         authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any
         court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or

         Shares in accordance with the terms hereof.

                  (d) Financial Risks. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is
         able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the
         Shares and that it has been given full access to such records of the
         Company and the subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the
         subsidiaries as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct its
         due diligence investigation. The Purchaser is capable of evaluating the
         risks and merits of an investment in the Shares by virtue of its
         experience as an investor and its knowledge, experience, and

         assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies,
         costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
         attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company as
         result of any material inaccuracy in or breach of the representations,
         warranties or covenants made by the Purchaser herein. Notwithstanding
         anything to the contrary herein, the Purchaser shall be liable under
         this Section 8.1 for only that amount as does not exceed the net
         proceeds to the Purchaser as a result of the sale of the Shares.

         Section 8.2. Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to
indemnification under this Article VIII (an "Indemnified Party") will give
written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a claim
for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to
indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve
the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the
extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to
give notice. In case any action, proceeding or claim is brought against an
Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the
reasonable judgment of counsel to the Indemnified Party a conflict of interest
between it and the

                                       22
<PAGE>

indemnifying party may exist with respect of such action, proceeding or claim,
to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an
Indemnified Party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification
hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification
notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or
compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or
discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the
Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or
pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party
elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim,
proceeding or action, the Indemnified Party's costs (including reasonable
attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements) and expenses arising out of the
defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall
be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Party shall
cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any settlement
negotiations or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party
and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available
to the Indemnified Party, which relates to such action or claim. The
indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times
as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect
thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim,
then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with
counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall
not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected
without its prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VIII
to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the Indemnified
Party's prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to
entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on
the Indemnified Party or which does not include, as an unconditional term
thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of
a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification
required by this Article VIII shall be made by periodic payments of the amount
thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are
received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, within ten (10)
Trading Days of written notice thereof to the indemnifying party so long as the
Indemnified Party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys, with interest, if it
is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party
was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein
shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the
Indemnified Party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any
liabilities to which the indemnifying party may be subject.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                                       EXHIBIT A TO EXHIBIT 10.1

                          REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

         THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, dated as of January 10, 2001
between St. Annes Investments Ltd. ("Purchaser") and SurgiLight, Inc. (the
"Company").

         WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, pursuant to a Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of the date
hereof (the "Purchase Agreement") by and between the Purchaser and the Company,
the Purchaser has committed to purchase up to $30,000,000 of the Company's
Common Stock (terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them
in the Purchase Agreement) and a warrant to purchase Common Stock; and

         WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Purchaser the registration
rights set forth herein with respect to the Shares.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:

         Section 1. Registrable Securities. As used herein the term "Registrable
Security" means all Shares that have not been (i) sold under the Registration
Statement, (ii) sold under circumstances under which all of the applicable
conditions of Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in force) under the
Securities Act ("Rule 144") are met, (iii) otherwise transferred to persons who
may trade such Shares without restriction under the Securities Act, and the
Company has delivered a new certificate or other evidence of ownership for such
Shares not bearing a restrictive legend or (iv) sold without any time, volume or
manner limitations pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any similar provision then in
effect) under the Securities Act. The term "Registrable Securities" means any
and/or all of the Shares falling within the foregoing definition of a
"Registrable Security." In the event of any merger, reorganization,
consolidation, recapitalization or other change in corporate structure affecting
the Common Stock, such adjustment shall be deemed to be made in the definition
of "Registrable Security" as is appropriate in order to prevent any dilution or
enlargement of the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement.

         Section 2. Restrictions on Transfer. The Purchaser acknowledges and
understands that in the absence of an effective Registration Statement
authorizing the resale of the Shares as provided herein, the Shares are
"restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144. The Purchaser understands that
no disposition or transfer of the Shares may be made by Purchaser in the absence
of (i) an opinion of counsel to the Purchaser, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, that such transfer may be made without registration
under the Securities Act or (ii) such registration.

         With a view to making available to the Purchaser the benefits of Rule
144, the Company agrees to:

                  (a) comply with the provisions of paragraph (c)(1) of Rule
         144; and

<PAGE>

                  (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports
         and other documents required to be filed by the Company pursuant to
         Section 13 or 15(d) under the Exchange Act; and, if at any time it is
         not required to file such reports but in the past had been required to
         or did file such reports, it will, upon the request of the Purchaser,
         make available other information as required by, and so long as
         necessary to permit sales of, its Registrable Securities pursuant to
         Rule 144.

         Section 3. Registration Rights With Respect to the Shares.

                  (a) The Company agrees that it will prepare and file with the
         Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission"), within forty-five
         (45) days after the date hereof, a registration statement (on Form S-3
         and/or S-1, or other appropriate form of registration statement) under
         the Securities Act (the "Registration Statement"), at the sole expense
         of the Company (except as provided in Section 3(c) hereof), in respect
         of Purchaser, so as to permit a public offering and resale of the
         Shares under the Securities Act by Purchaser.

                  (b) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the
         Registration Statement to become effective within the earlier of (i)
         ninety (90) days of the date hereof, or (ii) five (5) days after
         receiving written notice of SEC clearance and will within said five (5)
         days request acceleration of effectiveness. The Company will notify
         Purchaser of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement within one
         Trading Day of such event.

                  (c) The Company will maintain the Registration Statement or
         post-effective amendment filed under this Section 3 hereof effective
         under the Securities Act until the earliest of (i) the date that all
         the Shares have been disposed of pursuant to the Registration
         Statement, (ii) the date that all of the Shares have been sold pursuant
         to the Registration Statement, (iii) the date the holders thereof
         receive an opinion of counsel to the Company, which opinion shall be
         reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, that the Shares may be sold
         under the provisions of Rule 144 without limitation as to volume, (iv)
         all Shares have been otherwise transferred to persons who may trade
         such shares without restriction under the Securities Act, and the
         Company has delivered a new certificate or other evidence of ownership
         for such Shares not bearing a restrictive legend, or (v) all Shares may
         be sold without any time, volume or manner limitations pursuant to Rule
         144(k) or any similar provision then in effect under the Securities Act
         in the opinion of counsel to the Company, which counsel shall be
         reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser (the "Effectiveness Period").

                  (d) All fees, disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses and
         costs incurred by the Company in connection with the preparation and
         filing of the Registration Statement under subparagraph 3(a) and in
         complying with applicable securities and Blue Sky laws (including,
         without limitation, all attorneys' fees of the Company) shall be borne
         by the Company. The Purchaser shall bear the cost of underwriting
         and/or brokerage discounts, fees and commissions, if any, applicable to
         the Shares being registered and the fees and expenses of its counsel.

                  (e) The Purchaser and its counsel shall have a reasonable
         period, not to exceed five (5) Trading Days, to review the proposed
         Registration Statement or any amendment

                                       2
<PAGE>

         thereto, prior to filing with the Commission, and the Company shall
         provide the Purchaser with copies of any comment letters received from
         the Commission with respect thereto within two (2) Trading Days of
         receipt thereof.

                  (f) The Company shall make reasonably available for inspection
         by Purchaser upon its reasonable request, any underwriter participating
         in any disposition pursuant to the Registration Statement, and any
         attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Purchaser or any
         such underwriter all relevant financial and other records, pertinent
         corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries,
         and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all
         information reasonably requested by the Purchaser or any such
         underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the
         Registration Statement, in each case, as is customary for similar due
         diligence examinations; provided, however, all records, information and
         documents that are designated in writing by the Company, in good faith,
         as confidential, proprietary or containing any material non-public
         information shall be kept confidential by the Purchaser and any such
         underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent, unless such disclosure is
         made pursuant to judicial process in a court proceeding (after first
         giving the Company an opportunity promptly to seek a protective order
         or otherwise limit the scope of the information sought to be disclosed)
         or is required by law, or such records, information or documents become
         available to the public generally or through a third party not in
         violation of an accompanying obligation of confidentiality. If the
         foregoing inspection and information gathering would otherwise disrupt
         the Company's conduct of its business, such inspection and information
         gathering shall, to the maximum extent possible, be coordinated on
         behalf of the Purchaser and the other parties entitled thereto by one
         firm of counsel designed by and on behalf of the majority in interest
         of Purchaser and other parties.

                  (g) The Company shall qualify any of the Shares for sale in
         New York and Florida, if the Purchaser reasonably designates, and shall
         furnish indemnification in the manner provided in Section 6 hereof.
         However, the Company shall not be required to qualify in any state
         which will require an escrow or other restriction relating to the
         Company and/or the sellers, or which will require the Company to
         qualify to do business in such state or require the Company to file
         therein any general consent to service of process.

                  (h) The Company at its expense will supply the Purchaser with
         copies of the Registration Statement and the prospectus included
         therein and other related documents in such quantities as may be
         reasonably requested by the Purchaser.

                  (i) The Company shall not be required by this Section 3 to
         include a Purchaser's Shares in any Registration Statement which is to
         be filed if, in the opinion of counsel for both the Purchaser and the
         Company (or, should they not agree, in the opinion of another counsel
         experienced in securities law matters acceptable to counsel for the
         Purchaser and the Company) the proposed offering or other transfer as
         to which such registration is requested is exempt from applicable
         federal and state securities laws and would result in all purchasers or
         transferees obtaining securities which are not "restricted securities",
         as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

                  (j) If at any time or from time to time after the effective
         date of the Registration Statement, the Company notifies the Purchaser
         in writing of the existence of a Potential Material Event (as defined
         in Section 3(k) below), the Purchaser shall not offer or sell any
         Shares or engage in any other transaction involving or relating to
         Shares, from the time of the giving of notice with respect to a
         Potential Material Event until the Purchaser receives written notice
         from the Company that such Potential Material Event either has been
         disclosed to the public or no longer constitutes a Potential Material
         Event (the "Suspension Period"). Notwithstanding anything herein to the
         contrary, if a Suspension Period occurs during any periods commencing
         on a Trading Day a Draw Down Notice is deemed delivered and ending ten
         (10) Trading Days following the end of the corresponding Draw Down
         Pricing Period, then the Company must compensate the Purchaser for any
         net decline in the market value of any Shares committed to be purchased
         by the Purchaser through the end of such Suspension Period. Net decline
         shall be calculated as the difference between the highest VWAP during
         the applicable Suspension Period and the VWAP on the Trading Day
         immediately following a properly delivered notice to the Purchaser that
         such Suspension Period has ended. If a Potential Material Event shall
         occur prior to the date the Registration Statement is filed, then the
         Company's obligation to file the Registration Statement shall be
         delayed without penalty for not more than thirty (30) calendar days.
         The Company must give Purchaser notice of the existence of a Potential
         Material Event in writing at least two (2) Trading Days prior to the
         first day of any Suspension Period, if lawful to do so.

                  (k) "Potential Material Event" means any of the following: (i)
         the possession by the Company of material information that is not ripe
         for disclosure in a registration statement, as determined in good faith
         by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors of the Company
         or that disclosure of such information in the Registration Statement
         would be detrimental to the business and affairs of the Company; or
         (ii) any material engagement or activity by the Company which would, in
         the good faith determination of the Chief Executive Officer or the
         Board of Directors of the Company, be adversely affected by disclosure
         in a registration statement at such time, which determination shall be
         accompanied by a good faith determination by the Chief Executive
         Officer or the Board of Directors of the Company that the Registration
         Statement would be materially misleading absent the inclusion of such
         information.

         Section 4. Cooperation with Company. The Purchaser will cooperate with
the Company in all respects in connection with this Agreement, including timely
supplying all information reasonably requested by the Company (which shall
include all information regarding the Purchaser and proposed manner of sale of
the Registrable Securities required to be disclosed in the Registration
Statement) and executing and returning all documents reasonably requested in
connection with the registration and sale of the Registrable Securities and
entering into and performing its obligations under any underwriting agreement,
if the offering is an underwritten offering, in usual and customary form, with
the managing underwriter or underwriters of such underwritten offering. The
Purchaser shall consent to be named as an underwriter in the Registration
Statement. Purchaser acknowledges that in accordance with current Commission
policy, the Purchaser will be named as the underwriter of the Shares in the
Registration Statement.

         Section 5. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is
required by any of the provisions of this Agreement to effect the registration
of any of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company shall
(except as otherwise provided in this Agreement), as expeditiously as possible,
subject to the Purchaser's assistance and cooperation as reasonably required:

                  (a) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
         supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in
         connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration
         statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities
         Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all securities
         covered by such registration statement whenever the Purchaser of such
         Registrable Securities shall desire to sell or otherwise dispose of the
         same (including prospectus supplements with respect to the sales of
         securities from time to time in connection with a registration
         statement pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act)
         and (ii) take all lawful action such that each of (A) the Registration
         Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes
         effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
         state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
         make the statements therein not misleading and (B) the prospectus
         forming part of the Registration Statement, and any amendment or
         supplement thereto, does not at any time during the Effectiveness
         Period include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
         a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
         statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
         made, not misleading;

                  (b) prior to the filing with the Commission of any
         Registration Statement (including any amendments thereto) and the
         distribution or delivery of any prospectus (including any supplements
         thereto), provide draft copies thereof to the Purchaser and reflect in
         such documents all such comments as the Purchaser (and its counsel)
         reasonably may propose and (ii) furnish to the Purchaser such numbers
         of copies of a prospectus including a preliminary prospectus or any
         amendment or supplement to any prospectus, as applicable, in conformity
         with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents,
         as the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
         public sale or other disposition of the securities owned by the
         Purchaser;

                  (c) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by
         the Registration Statement under New York and Florida blue sky laws
         (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3(g) above), and do
         any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or
         advisable to enable the Purchaser to consummate the public sale or
         other disposition in such jurisdiction of the securities owned by the
         Purchaser, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be
         required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any
         jurisdiction wherein it is not so qualified or to file therein any
         general consent to service of process;

                  (d) list such Registrable Securities on the Principal Market,
         and any other exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company is then
         listed, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted
         under the rules of such exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market;

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  (e) notify the Purchaser at any time when a prospectus
         relating thereto covered by the Registration Statement is required to
         be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event of
         which it has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus included in
         the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
         statement 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 the light of the circumstances then existing, and the
         Company shall prepare and file a curative amendment under Section 5(a)
         as quickly as commercially possible;

                  (f) as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such
         event, notify the Purchaser who holds Registrable Securities being sold
         (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing
         underwriters) of the issuance by the Commission or any state authority
         of any stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the
         Registration Statement at the earliest possible time and take all
         lawful action to effect the withdrawal, recission or removal of such
         stop order or other suspension;

                  (g) cooperate with the Purchaser to facilitate the timely
         preparation and delivery of certificates for the Registrable Securities
         to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such
         certificates for the Registrable Securities to be in such denominations
         or amounts, as the case may be, as the Purchaser reasonably may request
         and registered in such names as the Purchaser may request, pursuant to
         the Purchase Agreement.

                  (h) take all such other lawful actions reasonably necessary to
         expedite and facilitate the disposition by the Purchaser of its
         Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended methods therefor
         provided in the prospectus which are customary for issuers to perform
         under the circumstances;

                  (i) in the event of an underwritten offering, promptly include
         or incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
         to the Registration Statement such information as the managing
         underwriters reasonably agree should be included therein and to which
         the Company does not reasonably object and make all required filings of
         such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as
         practicable after it is notified of the matters to be included or
         incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;
         and

                  (j) maintain a transfer agent for its Common Stock.

         Section 6. Indemnification.

                  (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
         Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within
         the meaning of the Securities Act ("Distributing Purchaser") against
         any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (which
         shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited
         to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all
         reasonable attorneys' fees), to which the Distributing Purchaser 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 the Registration

                                       6
<PAGE>

         Statement, or any related preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or
         amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the
         omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
         to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
         misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in
         any such case 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 made in the
         Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or
         amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon, and in conformity
         with, written information furnished to the Company by the Distributing
         Purchaser specifically for use in the preparation thereof. This Section
         6(a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Distributing Purchaser with
         respect to any person asserting such loss, claim, damage or liability
         who purchased the Registrable Securities which are the subject thereof
         if the Distributing Purchaser failed to send or give (in violation of
         the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder)
         a copy of the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement to
         such person at or prior to the written confirmation to such person of
         the sale of such Registrable Securities, where the Distributing
         Purchaser was obligated to do so under the Securities Act or the rules
         and regulations promulgated thereunder. This indemnity agreement will
         be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

                  (b) Each Distributing Purchaser agrees that it will indemnify
         and hold harmless the Company, and each officer, director of the
         Company or person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
         of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
         liabilities (which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include,
         but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and
         investigation and all reasonable attorneys' fees) to which the Company
         or any such officer, director 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 the Registration Statement, or any related
         preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or supplement
         thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged
         omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
         or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each
         case only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
         statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration
         Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or
         supplement thereto in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written
         information furnished to the Company by such Distributing Purchaser
         specifically for use in the preparation thereof. This indemnity
         agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Distributing
         Purchaser may otherwise have. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
         herein, the Distributing Purchaser shall not be liable under this
         Section 6(b) for any amount in excess of the net proceeds to such
         Distributing Purchaser as a result of the sale of Registrable
         Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

                  (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
         Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
         party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the
         indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party
         of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the
         indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any
         liability which it may have to any indemnified party except to the
         extent of actual prejudice demonstrated by the indemnifying party. In
         case any such

                                       7
<PAGE>

         action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the
         indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
         will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may
         wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified,
         assume the defense thereof, subject to the provisions herein stated and
         after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of
         its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party
         will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6 for
         any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified
         party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
         costs of investigation, unless the indemnifying party shall not pursue
         the action to its final conclusion. The indemnified party shall have
         the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to
         participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such
         counsel shall not be at the expense of the indemnifying party if the
         indemnifying party has assumed the defense of the action with counsel
         reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that if the
         indemnified party is the Distributing Purchaser, the fees and expenses
         of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party if
         (i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in
         writing by the indemnifying party, or (ii) the named parties to any
         such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the
         Distributing Purchaser and the indemnifying party and the Distributing
         Purchaser shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one
         or more legal defenses available to the indemnifying party different
         from or in conflict with any legal defenses which may be available to
         the Distributing Purchaser (in which case the indemnifying party shall
         not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of
         the Distributing Purchaser, it being understood, however, that the
         indemnifying party shall, in connection with any one such action or
         separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same
         jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
         circumstances, be liable only for the reasonable fees and expenses of
         one separate firm of attorneys for the Distributing Purchaser, which
         firm shall be designated in writing by the Distributing Purchaser and
         be approved by the indemnifying party). No settlement of any action
         against an indemnified party shall be made without the prior written
         consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be
         unreasonably withheld.

                  All fees and expenses of the indemnified party (including
         reasonable costs of defense and investigation in a manner not
         inconsistent with this Section and all reasonable attorneys' fees and
         expenses) shall be paid to the indemnified party, as incurred, within
         ten (10) Trading Days of written notice thereof to the indemnifying
         party; provided, that the indemnifying party may require such
         indemnified party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses
         to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such indemnified
         party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

         Section 7. Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution under the Securities Act in any case in which (i) the indemnified
party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 6 hereof but is
judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of
competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the
last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case
notwithstanding the fact that the express provisions of Section 6 hereof provide
for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act
may be required on the part of any indemnified party, then the Company and the
applicable Distributing Purchaser shall contribute to the aggregate losses,
claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject

                                       8
<PAGE>

(which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited
to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable
attorneys' fees), in either such case (after contribution from others) on the
basis of relative fault as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company on the one hand or the applicable Distributing Purchaser
on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The Company and the Distributing Purchaser agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 7. The amount paid or
payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 7
shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such
action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.

         Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7, in no event
shall any (i) Purchaser be required to undertake liability to any person under
this Section 7 for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the net
proceeds to be received by the Purchaser from the sale of the Purchaser's
Registrable Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions
applicable thereto) pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such
Registrable Securities are to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii)
underwriter be required to undertake liability to any person hereunder for any
amounts in excess of the aggregate discount, commission or other compensation
payable to such underwriter with respect to the Registrable Securities
underwritten by it and distributed pursuant to the Registration Statement.

         Section 8. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents,
approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in
writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be delivered as set forth
in the Purchase Agreement.

         Section 9. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any rights of the
Purchaser or the Company hereunder may be assigned by either party to any other
person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the provisions of this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, any transferee of any of
the Common Stock purchased by the Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement
other than through open-market sales, and (b) upon the prior written consent of
the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the
case of an assignment to an affiliate of the Purchaser, the Purchaser's interest
in this Agreement may be assigned at any time, in whole or in part, to any other
person or entity (including any affiliate of the Purchaser) who agrees to be
bound hereby.

         Section 10. Counterparts/Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in
two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of
which, when together shall constitute but one and the same instrument, and shall
become effective when one or more

                                       9
<PAGE>

counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other
party. In lieu of the original, a facsimile transmission or copy of the original
shall be as effective and enforceable as the original.

         Section 11. Remedies and Severability. The remedies provided in this
Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. If
any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable,
the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth
herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to
find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the
same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or
restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the
parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants
and restrictions without including any of those that may be hereafter declared
invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

         Section 12. Conflicting Agreements. The Company shall not enter into
any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         3.1. No waiver or any breach of any covenant or provision herein
contained shall be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach
thereof, or of any other covenant or provision herein contained. No extension of
time for performance of any obligation or act shall be deemed an extension of
the time for performance of any other obligation or act.

         3.2. All notices or other communications required or permitted
hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be sent by fax, overnight courier,
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, and
shall be deemed received upon receipt thereof, as set forth in the Purchase
Agreement.

         3.3. This Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of the permitted successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

         3.4. This Escrow Agreement is the final expression of, and contains the
entire agreement between, the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior understandings with respect thereto. This Escrow
Agreement may not be modified, changed, supplemented or terminated, nor may any
obligations hereunder be waived, except by written instrument signed by the
parties to be charged or by their respective agents duly authorized in writing
or as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

         3.5. Whenever required by the context of this Escrow Agreement, the
singular shall include the plural and masculine shall include the feminine. This
Escrow Agreement shall not be construed as if it had been prepared by one of the
parties, but rather as if both parties had

                                       3
<PAGE>

prepared the same. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to Articles are to
this Escrow Agreement.

         3.6. The parties hereto expressly agree that this Escrow Agreement
shall be governed by, interpreted under and construed and enforced in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York. Except as expressly set forth herein,
any action to enforce, arising out of, or relating in any way to, any provisions
of this Escrow Agreement shall be brought in the Federal or state courts of New
York, New York as is more fully set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

         3.7. The Escrow Agent's duties hereunder may be altered, amended,
modified or revoked only by a writing signed by the Company, Purchaser and the
Escrow Agent.

         3.8. The Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of
such duties as are specifically set forth herein and may rely and shall be
protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably
believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall not be personally liable
for any act the Escrow Agent may do or omit to do hereunder as the Escrow Agent
while acting in good faith, excepting only its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct, and any act done or omitted by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the
advice of the Escrow Agent's attorneys-at-law (other than Escrow Agent itself)
shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith.

         3.9. The Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized to disregard any
and all warnings given by any of the parties hereto or by any other person or
corporation, excepting only orders or process of courts of law and is hereby
expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any
court. In case the Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such order, judgment
or decree, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or
to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such decree being
subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have
been entered without jurisdiction.

         3.10. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any respect on account of

Purchaser, and may continue to act as legal counsel for the Purchaser, from time
to time, notwithstanding its duties as the Escrow Agent hereunder. The Company
consents to the Escrow Agent in such capacity as legal counsel for the Purchaser
and waives any claim that such representation represents a conflict of interest
on the part of the Escrow Agent. The Company understands that the Purchaser and
the Escrow Agent are relying explicitly on the foregoing provision in entering
into this Escrow Agreement.

                                       4
<PAGE>

         3.12. The Escrow Agent's responsibilities as escrow agent hereunder
shall terminate if the Escrow Agent shall resign by written notice to the
Company and the Purchaser. In the event of any such resignation, the Purchaser
and the Company shall appoint a successor Escrow Agent.

         3.13. If the Escrow Agent reasonably requires other or further
instruments in connection with this Escrow Agreement or obligations in respect
hereto, the necessary parties hereto shall join in furnishing such instruments.

         3.14. It is understood and agreed that should any dispute arise with
respect to the delivery and/or ownership or right of possession of the documents
or the escrow funds held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent is
authorized and directed in the Escrow Agent's sole discretion (1) to retain in
the Escrow Agent's possession without liability to anyone all or any part of
said documents or the escrow funds until such disputes shall have been settled
either by mutual written agreement of the parties concerned by a final order,
decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction after the time for
appeal has expired and no appeal has been perfected, but the Escrow Agent shall
be under no duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings or (2)
to deliver the escrow funds and any other property and documents held by the
Escrow Agent hereunder to a state or Federal court having competent subject
matter jurisdiction and located in the State and City of New York in accordance
with the applicable procedure therefor.

indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and its partners, employees, agents
and representatives from any and all claims, liabilities, costs or expenses in
any way arising from or relating to the duties or performance of the Escrow
Agent hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Purchase
Agreement other than any such claim, liability, cost or expense to the extent
the same shall have been determined by final, unappealable judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Escrow Agent.

the opinion to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.3(e) of the Purchase Agreement
at Settlement, the following additional items:

material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; however, we express no

schedules and other financial and statistical data derived therefrom included in
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus.

         Re:      Common Stock Purchase Agreement Between St. Annes Investments,
                  Ltd. and SurgiLight, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase
Agreement by and between St. Annes Investments, Ltd. (the "Purchaser") and
SurgiLight, Inc. (the "Company"), dated as of January 12, 2001 (the "Purchase
Agreement"), which provides for the issuance and sale by the Company of up to
$30,000,000 of Common Stock (the "Shares") of the Company and Warrants. All
terms used herein have the meanings defined for them in the Purchase Agreement
unless otherwise defined herein.

         We have acted as counsel for the Company in connection with the
negotiation of the Purchase Agreement, the Warrants issued by the Company at the
Closing, the Registration Rights Agreement between the Purchaser and the
Company, dated as of January 12, 2001 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), and
the Escrow Agreement between the Purchaser, the Company and Epstein Becker &
Green, P.C., dated as of January 12, 2001 (the "Escrow Agreement", and together
with the Purchase Agreement, the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement,
the "Agreements"). As counsel, we have made such legal and factual examinations
and inquiries as we have deemed advisable or necessary for the purpose of
rendering this opinion. In addition, we have examined, among other things,
originals or copies of such corporate records of the Company, certificates of
public officials and such other documents and questions of law that we consider
necessary or advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion. In such
examination we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on original
documents, the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as
originals, the conformity to original documents of all copies submitted to us as
copies thereof, the legal capacity of natural persons, and the due execution and
delivery of all documents (except as to

<PAGE>

due execution and delivery by the Company) where due execution and delivery are
a prerequisite to the effectiveness thereof.

         As used in this opinion, the expression "to our knowledge" refers to
the current actual knowledge of the attorneys of this firm who have worked on
matters for the Company solely in connection with the Agreements and the
transactions contemplated thereby without independent investigation or inquiry.

         For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed that the Purchaser has
all requisite power and authority, and has taken any and all necessary corporate
action, to execute and deliver the Agreements, and we are assuming that the
representations and warranties made by the Purchaser in the Agreements and
pursuant thereto are true and correct.

         Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

         1. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite
power and authority (corporate and other) to carry on its business and to own,
lease and operate its properties and assets as described in the Company's SEC
Documents. The Company and each subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in
which the Company owns or leases property, other than those in which the failure
so to qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

         2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter
into and perform its obligations under the Agreements and to issue the Shares.
The execution and delivery of the Agreements by the Company and the consummation
by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action and no further consent or authorization of the
Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders is required. Each of the
Agreements has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and each of the
Agreements constitutes valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar
laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights
and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

         3. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements by the
Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated
thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Shares, the Warrant
and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the "Warrant Shares"), do
not and will not (i) result in a violation of the Company's Charter (the
"Charter") or By-Laws; (ii) to our knowledge, except as set forth on Schedule 3
hereto, conflict with, or constitute a material default (or an event that with
notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others
any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any
material agreement, indenture, instrument or any "lock-up" or similar provision
of any underwriting or similar agreement to which the Company is a party; or
(iii) result in a violation of any federal or state law, rule or regulation
applicable to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is
bound or affected, except for such

                                       2
<PAGE>

violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material
Adverse Effect. To our knowledge, the Company is not in violation of any terms
of its Charter or Bylaws.

         4. When issued and duly paid for, the Shares and Warrant Shares will be
duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free of any liens,
encumbrances and preemptive or similar rights contained in the Company's Charter
or Bylaws or, to our knowledge, in any agreement to which the Company is party,
except as set forth in Schedule 4 hereto.

         5. To our knowledge, except as disclosed in the SEC Documents and in
Schedule 5 hereto, there are no claims, actions, suits, proceedings or
investigations that are pending against the Company or its properties, or
against any officer or director of the Company in his or her capacity as such,
nor has the Company received any written threat of any such claims, actions,
suits, proceedings, or investigations.

         6. To our knowledge, there are no outstanding options, warrants, calls
or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or
obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or giving any right to
subscribe for or acquire any shares of Common Stock or contracts, commitments,
understanding, or arrangements by which the Company is or may become bound to
issue additional shares of Common Stock, or securities or rights convertible or
exchangeable into shares of Common Stock, except as described in the SEC
Documents or the Agreements or as set forth in Schedule 6 hereto. To our
knowledge, the Company is not a party to or subject to the provisions of any
order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or
instrumentality.

         7. To our knowledge, the issuance of the Shares and the Warrant Shares
will not violate the applicable listing agreement between the Company and any
securities exchange or market on which the Company's securities are listed.

         8. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 30,000,000
shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which approximately
23,676,600 shares are issued and outstanding (including 2,186,000 held in escrow
pursuant to another transaction) and 10,000,000 of preferred stock, $0.001 par
value per share, of which none are issued and outstanding.

                             STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

                  To Purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock of

                                SURGILIGHT, INC.

         THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, St. Annes Investments Ltd.
(the "Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on
exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after
January 12, 2001 (the "Initial Exercise Date") and on or prior to the close of
business on January 12, 2004 (the "Termination Date") but not thereafter, to
subscribe for and purchase from SurgiLight, Inc., a corporation incorporated in
the State of Delaware (the "Company"), up to 100,000 shares (the "Warrant
Shares") of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the
"Common Stock"). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock (the "Exercise
Price") under this Warrant shall be $3.34. The Exercise Price and the number of
Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to
adjustment as provided herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of
this Warrant and the Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of January 10,
2001 pursuant to which this Warrant has been issued (the "Purchase Agreement"),
the Purchase Agreement shall control. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for such terms in the Purchase
Agreement.

                                       1
<PAGE>

         1. Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to
compliance with applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company by the
Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant
together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed.

         2. Authorization of Shares. The Company covenants that all Warrant
Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented
by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and
free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other
than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such
issue).

         3. Exercise of Warrant.

                  (a) Except as provided in Section 4 herein, exercise of the
         purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or
         times on or after the Initial Exercise Date, and on or before the close
         of business on the Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant
         and the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the
         office of the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as
         it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the
         address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company) and upon
         payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire
         transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank, the Holder
         shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Warrant
         Shares so purchased. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall
         be delivered to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days after the date
         on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. This
         Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or
         certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any
         other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have
         become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the
         date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the
         Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any,
         pursuant to Section 5 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been
         paid.

                  (b) If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the
         Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or
         certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new
         Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased
         Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in
         all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

                  (c) This Warrant shall also be exercisable by means of a
         "cashless exercise" in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a
         certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient
         obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

                  (A) = the average of the high and low trading prices per share
                  of Common Stock on the Trading Day preceding the date of such
                  election on the

                                       2
<PAGE>

                  Nasdaq Stock Market, or if the Common Stock is not traded on
                  the Nasdaq Stock Market, then the Principal Market in terms of
                  volume, and converted into US Dollars;

                  (B) = the Exercise Price of the Warrants; and

                  (X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
                  the Warrants in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.

                  (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no
         event shall the Holder be permitted to exercise this Warrant for
         Warrant Shares to the extent that (i) the number of Warrant Shares
         owned by such Holder (other than Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
         of this Warrant) plus (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
         exercise of this Warrant, would be equal to or exceed 9.9% of the
         number of Warrant Shares then issued and outstanding, including shares
         issuable upon exercise of this Warrant held by such Holder after
         application of this Section 3(d). As used herein, beneficial ownership
         shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
         Act. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 3(d)
         applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in
         relation to other securities owned by the Holder) and of which a
         portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion
         of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be
         deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this Warrant is
         exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and
         of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject
         to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no
         obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination.
         Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a
         Holder to exercise this Warrant into Warrant Shares at such time as
         such exercise will not violate the provisions of this Section 3(d). The
         provisions of this Section 3(d) may be waived by the Holder upon, at
         the election of the Holder, with not less than 61 days' prior notice to
         the Company, and the provisions of this Section 3(d) shall continue to
         apply until such 61st day (or such later date as may be specified in
         such notice of waiver). No exercise of this Warrant in violation of
         this Section 3(d) but otherwise in accordance with this Warrant shall
         affect the status of the Warrant Shares as validly issued, fully-paid
         and nonassessable.

         4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled
to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in
respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Exercise Price.

         5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant
Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax
or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all
of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates
shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be
directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder,
this

                                       3
<PAGE>

Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment
Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder; and the Company may require,
as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any
transfer tax incidental thereto.

         6. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books
or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant.

         7. Transfer, Division and Combination.

                  (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws,
         transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part,
         shall be registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for
         such purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of
         the Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant
         substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder
         or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes
         payable upon the making of such transfer. In the event that the Holder
         wishes to transfer a portion of this Warrant, the Holder shall transfer
         at least 50,000 shares underlying this Warrant to any such transferee.
         Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall
         execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the
         assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations
         specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the
         assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so
         assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if
         properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of
         Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

                  (b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other
         Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the
         Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and
         denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the
         Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section
         7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or
         combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
         Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or
         combined in accordance with such notice.

                  (c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own
         expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under
         this Section 7.

                  (d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office,
         books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the
         Warrants.

                                       4
<PAGE>

         8. No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not
entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the
Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares so purchased shall
be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares
as of the close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or
payment.

         9. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company
covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock
certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which shall
not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of
such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and
deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

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

         11. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. (a)
Stock Splits, etc. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the
exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment
from time to time upon the happening of any of the following. In case the
Company shall (i) pay a dividend in Warrant Shares or make a distribution in
Warrant Shares to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its
outstanding Warrant Shares into a greater number of Warrant Shares, (iii)
combine its outstanding Warrant Shares into a smaller number of Warrant Shares
or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the
Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder
shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other
securities of the Company which it would have owned or have been entitled to
receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such
adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the
Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled
to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other securities resulting from such
adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by
multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to
such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities
of the Company resulting from such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to
this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of
such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.

         12. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or
Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there
is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company),
or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property,
assets or business to

                                       5
<PAGE>

another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of
common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of
stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including
warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of
common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other Property"), are
to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company,
then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of
this Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares of the successor or acquiring
corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and other
Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of
the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately
prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification,
merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring
corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and
punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of
this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations
and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed
appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors
of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares for which
this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable
to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. For purposes of this Section
12, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock
of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or
assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not
subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness,
shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable
for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date
or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to
subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this
Section 13 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.

         13. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at any time
during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any
amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors
of the Company.

         14. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or
number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of
this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company
shall promptly mail by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
to the Holder notice of such adjustment or adjustments setting forth the number
of Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the
exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and
other securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the
computation by which such adjustment was made. Such notice, in the absence of
manifest error, shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such
adjustment.

         15. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time:

                  (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
         Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or
         other

                                       6
<PAGE>

         distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences
         of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other
         securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

                  (b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company,
         any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the
         Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any
         sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the
         property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation or,

                  (c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
         liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at
least 20 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be
selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to
vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii)
in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 20
days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such
notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date
on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any
such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or other property
deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each
such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the
last address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in
accordance with Section 17(d).

         16. Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the
Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full
authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such
Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any
applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Principal Market
upon which the Common Stock may be listed.

         The Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such actions

                                       7

as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder against
impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will
(a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable
therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b)
take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable
the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

         Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the
number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions
thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory
body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

         17. Miscellaneous.

                  (a) Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall constitute a contract
         under the laws of New York, without regard to its conflict of law,
         principles or rules, and be subject to arbitration pursuant to the
         terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

                  (b) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant
         Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered,
         will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal
         securities laws.

                  (c) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay
         or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall
         operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder's
         rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder
         terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and
         knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which
         results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to
         Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and
         expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees,
         including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in
         collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing
         any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

                  (d) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or
         permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall
         be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase
         Agreement.

                  (e) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the
         absence of affirmative action by Holder to purchase Warrant Shares, and
         no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give
         rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common
         Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is
         asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

                                       8
<PAGE>

                  (f) Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled to
         exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will
         be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant.
         The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate
         compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the
         provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in
         any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be
         adequate.

                  (g) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities
         laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby
         shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the
         Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The
         provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all
         Holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by
         any such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

                  (h) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the
         provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and
         the Holder.

                  (i) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this
         Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
         valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall
         be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall
         be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
         invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining
         provisions of this Warrant.

                  (j) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
         convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed
         a part of this Warrant.
