          (a) INVESTMENT PURPOSE. Each Buyer is acquiring the Convertible
Debentures and, upon conversion of Convertible Debentures, the Buyer will
acquire the Conversion Shares then issuable, for its own account for investment
only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public
sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted
under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that by making the representations
herein, such Buyer reserves the right to dispose of the Conversion Shares at any
time in accordance with or pursuant to an effective registration statement
covering such Conversion Shares or an available exemption under the 1933 Act.

          (b) ACCREDITED INVESTOR STATUS. Each Buyer is an "ACCREDITED INVESTOR"
as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D.

          (c) RELIANCE ON EXEMPTIONS. Each Buyer understands that the
Convertible Debentures are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific
exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state
securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and
accuracy of, and such Buyer's compliance with, the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Buyer set forth herein in
order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of
such Buyer to acquire such securities.

          (d) INFORMATION. Each Buyer and its advisors (and his or, its
counsel), if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the
business, finances and operations of the Company and information he deemed
material to making an informed investment decision regarding his purchase of the
Convertible Debentures and the Conversion Shares, which have been requested by
such Buyer. Each Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the
opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its management. Neither such
inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Buyer or
its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such
Buyer's right to rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained
in Section 3 below. Each Buyer understands that its investment in the
Convertible Debentures and the Conversion Shares involves a high degree of risk.
Each Buyer is in a position regarding the Company, which, based upon employment,
family relationship or economic bargaining power, enabled and enables such Buyer
to obtain information from the Company in order to evaluate the merits and risks
of this investment. Each



                                       3
<PAGE>

Buyer has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice, as it has considered
necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its
acquisition of the Convertible Debentures and the Conversion Shares.

          (e) NO GOVERNMENTAL REVIEW. Each Buyer understands that no United
States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency
has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Convertible
Debentures or the Conversion Shares, or the fairness or suitability of the
investment in the Convertible Debentures or the Conversion Shares, nor have such
authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the
Convertible Debentures or the Conversion Shares.

          (f) TRANSFER OR RESALE. Each Buyer understands that except as provided
in the Investor Registration Rights Agreement: (i) the Convertible Debentures

to the effect that such securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be
sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration
requirements; (ii) any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144
under the 1933 Act (or a successor rule thereto) ("RULE 144") may be made only
in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not
applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the
seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an
underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require compliance
with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the
SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other person is under any
obligation to register such securities under the 1933 Act or any state
securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption
thereunder. The Company reserves the right to place stop transfer instructions
against the shares and certificates for the Conversion Shares.

          (g) LEGENDS. Each Buyer understands that the certificates or other
instruments representing the Convertible Debentures and or the Conversion Shares

          IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
          STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE
          SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE
          STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL,

sale transaction, after such holder provides the Company with an opinion of
counsel, which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for

sale, assignment or transfer of the Conversion Shares may be made without
registration under the 1933 Act.

statement on Form S-8 until at least six (6) month after the effective date of

     5. TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

     The Company shall issue the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to its
transfer agent irrevocably appointing Butler Gonzalez LLP as its agent for
purpose of having certificates issued, registered in the name of the Buyer(s) or
its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares representing such amounts
of Convertible Debentures as specified from time to time by the Buyer(s) to the
Company upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures, for interest owed
pursuant to the Convertible Debenture, and for any and all Liquidated Damages
(as this term is defined in the Investor Registration Rights Agreement). Butler
Gonzalez LLP shall be paid a cash fee of Fifty Dollars ($50) for every occasion
they act pursuant to the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company
shall not change its transfer agent without the express written consent of the
Buyer(s), which may be withheld by the Buyer(s) in its sole discretion. Prior to
registration of the Conversion Shares under the 1933 Act, all such certificates
shall bear the restrictive legend specified in Section 2(g) of this Agreement.
The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer
Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions
to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof (in the case of the Conversion Shares
prior to registration of such shares under the 1933 Act) will be given by the
Company to its transfer agent and that the Conversion Shares shall otherwise be
freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent
provided in this Agreement and the Investor Registration Rights Agreement.
Nothing in this Section 5 shall affect in any way the Buyer's obligations and
agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of

counsel, in form, scope and substance customary for opinions of counsel in
comparable transactions to the effect that registration of a resale by the
Buyer(s) of any of the Conversion Shares is not required under the 1933 Act, the
Company shall within two (2) business days instruct its transfer agent to issue
one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by
the Buyer. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyer by vitiating the intent and
purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company
acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this
Section 5 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened
breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5, that the Buyer(s)
shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction
restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without
the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security
being required.

          (g) SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
Neither the Company nor any Buyer shall assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party
hereto.

the representations and warranties of the Company and the Buyer(s) contained in
Sections 2 and 3, the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 4, 5 and 9,
and the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 8, shall survive the

approve, before issuance any press release or any other public statement with

and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

          (l) TERMINATION. In the event that the Closing shall not have occurred
with respect to the Buyers on or before five (5) business days from the date
hereof due to the Company's or the Buyer's failure to satisfy the conditions set
forth in Sections 6 and 7 above (and the non-breaching party's failure to waive
such unsatisfied condition(s)), the non-breaching party shall have the option to
terminate this Agreement with respect to such breaching party at the close of
business on such date without liability of any party to any other party;
provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant
to this Section 9(l), the Company shall remain obligated to reimburse the
Buyer(s) for the fees and expenses of Butler Gonzalez described in Section 4(g)
above.

          (m) NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The language used in this Agreement will
be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual
intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
