Attention:   Kuslima Shogen, Chairman
                     and Chief Executive Officer

Dear Ms. Shogen:

         The  undersigned   acknowledges  that  there  is  no  minimum  proceeds
requirement for the closing of this Offering,  the Company may close only on the
undersigned's  investment  and such  investment  may be  inadequate  to meet the
Company's cash requirements. The Company intends to utilize the proceeds of this
offering for general corporate purposes.

         The undersigned  hereby subscribes to purchase 112,000 shares of Common
Stock,  $.001 par value per share (the  "Shares")  of  Alfacell  Corporation,  a
Delaware  corporation  (the "Company") at a cost of $4.50 per share.  The Shares
are being sold in a transaction  exempt from  registration  under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").  The undersigned  tenders herewith $504,000
in full  payment  of the  purchase  price  for the  112,000  Shares to which the
undersigned subscribes (in the manner indicated on the signature page hereof).

         The undersigned  understands that the right to transfer all or any part
of  the  Shares  (hereinafter   sometimes   collectively   referred  to  as  the
"Securities")  will  be  restricted.   The  undersigned  may  not  transfer  the
Securities  unless  they  are  registered  under  the Act and  applicable  state
securities  or "blue  sky"  laws,  or an  exemption  from such  registration  is
available.  The undersigned recognizes that the Company shall have no obligation
to register the Securities, except as set forth herein.

The undersigned hereby represents, warrants and covenant that:

         1. The  undersigned is acquiring the Shares for the  undersigned's  own
account for investment and not with a view towards distribution. The undersigned
will not sell,  hypothecate,  transfer or otherwise  dispose of the  Securities,
unless such  transaction has been registered under the Act or, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, an exemption from registration is available.

     2. (i) Please check here if the representation  contained in this paragraph
2(i) is applicable to the undersigned  _____________.  (A) If an individual, (a)
the undersigned's individual net worth or joint net worth with the undersigned's
spouse exceeds $1,000,000 as of

of $200,000 in each of 1995 and 1994 and is expected to be in excess of $200,000
in 1996, or (c) the undersigned's joint income with the undersigned's spouse has
been in excess of  $300,000  in each of 1995 and 1994 and is  expected  to be in
excess of  $300,000  in 1996;  or (B) if a  corporation,  partnership,  or other
entity, the foregoing  representation applies to all of the equity owners of the
corporation, partnership, or entity.

acquiring the Shares?______Yes_____No

     (iii) If the  answer  to 2(ii) is yes,  how  many  equity  owners  does the
corporation partnership or entity have?_______

         3. Whether or not the  representation  contained  in paragraph  2(i) is
applicable to the  undersigned,  the undersigned has adequate means of providing
for the undersigned's  current needs and possible  contingencies and has no need
for liquidity of the Shares. The undersigned's overall commitment to investments
is not  disproportionate  to the undersigned's net worth, and acquisition of the
Shares will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive.  Prior to the
execution  hereof,  the  undersigned  has  received and had the  opportunity  to
review,  examine and read all  documents,  records and books  pertaining to this
investment,  including the  Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended July 31, 1996,  the  Company's  Quarterly  Reports on Form 10-QSB for
each of the two quarterly  periods  subsequent to the fiscal year ended July 31,
1996  and a  copy  of  the  Company's  Proxy  Statement  as  distributed  to its
stockholders  in connection  with the annual meeting of  stockholders  which was
held on November 21, 1996 (collectively, the "Disclosure Documents").

         4. The  undersigned is  knowledgeable  and experienced in financial and
business matters. The undersigned  recognizes and is fully cognizant of the fact
that the  investment  contemplated  hereby  involves a high degree of risk.  The
undersigned  is able to evaluate  the merits and risks of an  investment  in the
Shares.  The  undersigned has been given an opportunity to ask questions of, and
receive  answers and obtain  information  from,  representatives  of the Company
concerning the Company.

         5. The undersigned has been given no oral or written representations or
assurances  by the Company or any other person  acting or  purporting  to act on
behalf of the Company in connection with the acquisition of the Shares,  in each
case except as provided herein or in the Disclosure Documents.

         6. The undersigned understands and specifically acknowledges and agrees
that since the Shares have not been registered  under the Act, the  certificates
representing  the  Securities  will  bear a  legend  to such  effect  and a stop
transfer order will be placed on the Securities in the Company's transfer books.

         7. By its  acceptance  hereof,  the Company hereby agrees that no later
than  July  31,  1997,  the  Company  shall  use  its  best  efforts  to  file a
registration statement (the "Registration  Statement") under the Act to register
the resale of the Shares.  The Company further agrees to use its best efforts to
cause such Registration Statement to become effective.

                  In connection with the Registration Statement, the undersigned
shall provide the Company,  from time to time,  as  reasonably  requested by the
Company,  written information  concerning its ownership of the Company's Shares,
their intentions concerning the sale of its Shares and such other matters as are
required  in order to  enable  the  Company  to  prepare,  file and  obtain  the
effectiveness  of  such  Registration  Statement.  Notwithstanding  any  of  the
foregoing,  the Company shall not be required to maintain the  effectiveness  of
the  Registration  Statement  for more than  three (3) years  after the  initial
effective date thereof.

                  In  connection  with  any such  registration  of  Shares,  the
Company shall supply a reasonable number or prospectuses to the undersigned, use
its best  efforts to  qualify  the Shares for sale in the states of New York and
New Jersey and furnish indemnification in the manner set forth below.

                  The Company shall bear the entire cost and expense of any such
Registration  hereunder.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the undersigned shall
bear the fees of all persons  retained  by it, such as counsel and  accountants,
and any transfer taxes or  underwriting  discounts or commissions  applicable to
the Shares sold by it pursuant to the Registration Statement.

                  The Company  shall  indemnify and hold harmless each holder of
Shares that are  registered  pursuant  to the  Registration  Statement  and each
underwriter,  within the meaning of the Act, who may  purchase  from or sell for
any such holder any such Shares and each  person,  if any, who controls any such
holder or  underwriter  within the meaning of the Act,  from and against any and
all losses,  claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement of a
material  fact  contained in the  Registration  Statement or any  post-effective
amendment  thereto or any prospectus  included  therein  required to be filed or
furnished in  connection  therewith or caused by any omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the statements made
therein,  in  light  of the  circumstances  under  which  they  were  made,  not
misleading,  except insofar as such losses,  claims,  damages or liabilities are
caused by any such untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished
or  required  to be  furnished  in  writing  to the  Company  by such  holder or
underwriter  expressly for use therein;  provided,  however, that such holder or
underwriter shall indemnify the Company, its directors, each officer signing the
Registration  Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within
the meaning of the Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities  caused by any untrue  statement of a material fact contained in any
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or any prospectus
included therein required to be filed or furnished pursuant thereto or caused by
any omission to state therein a material  fact required to be stated  therein in
order to make the statements made therein,  in light of the circumstances  under
which they were made, not misleading, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities are caused

                                      - 3 -

<PAGE>
by any untrue statement or omission based upon information  furnished in writing
to the Company by any such holder or underwriter expressly for use therein.

         If the  indemnification  provided  for herein from either the holder of
the  Shares  or  the  Company  is  unavailable  to  an  indemnified  party  (the
"Indemnitee") hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof)  referred to herein,  then the party responsible
for  such  indemnification  (the  "Indemnitor"),  in  lieu of  indemnifying  the
Indemnitee,  shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnitee as
a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is
appropriate  to reflect the relative  fault of the  Indemnitor and Indemnitee in
connection  with the actions which resulted in such losses,  claims,  damages or
liabilities  (including legal or other fees and expenses  reasonably incurred in
connection with any  investigation or proceeding) as well as any other equitable
considerations.

         If  indemnification  is available,  the Indemnitor shall indemnify each
Indemnitee to the full extent provided for herein without regard to the relative
fault of the  Indemnitor,  the Indemnitee or any other  equitable  consideration
provided for hereunder.

         After the Registration  Statement  becomes  effective and in connection
with the sale of the Shares under such Registration  Statement,  the undersigned
shall  take such  steps as may be  necessary  to ensure  that the offer and sale
thereof are in compliance with the requirements of the federal  securities laws,
including,   but  not  limited  to,   compliance   with  the   anti-manipulation
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

         By its  acceptance  hereof,  the Company hereby  acknowledges  that the
foregoing  accurately  reflects its  understanding  concerning  the  transaction
contemplated hereby.

                                                     Very truly yours,
