                                   ARTICLE II

                                CONVERSION RIGHTS

     The Holder shall have the right to convert the principal amount and
interest due under this Note into shares of the Borrower's Common Stock as set
forth below.

     2.1. Conversion into the Borrower's Common Stock.
          -------------------------------------------

     (a) The Holder shall have the right from and after the issuance of this
Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any
outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, and at the Holder's
election, the interest accrued on the Note, (the date of giving of such notice
of conversion being a "Conversion Date") into fully paid and nonassessable
shares of common stock of the Borrower as such stock exists on the date of
issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of the Borrower into which
such stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified (the "Common Stock") at
the conversion price as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof (the "Conversion
Price"), determined as provided herein. Upon delivery to the Borrower of a
Notice of Conversion as described in Section 8 of the Securities Purchase
Agreement entered into between the Borrower and certain persons who are
signatories thereto, including the Holder, relating to this Note (the "Purchase
Agreement") of the Holder's written request for conversion, the Borrower shall
issue and deliver to the Holder within four business days beginning on the day
following the date that the Company receives the Notice of Conversion that
number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in
accordance with the foregoing. At the election of the Holder, the Borrower will
deliver accrued but unpaid interest on the Note through the Conversion Date
directly to the Holder on or before the Delivery Date (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement). The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each
conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the
principal of the Note to be converted and interest, if any, by the Conversion
Price.

     (b) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the
Conversion Price per share shall be the lower of (i) one hundred and five
percent (105%) of the closing price for the Common Stock on the NASD OTC
Bulletin Board, NASDAQ SmallCap Market, NASDAQ National Market System, American
Stock Exchange, or New York Stock Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is at the
time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock, the
"Principal Market"), or if not then trading on a Principal Market, such other
principal market or exchange where the Common Stock is listed or traded, on the
Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in connection with which
this Note is issued ("Maximum Base Price"); or (ii) eighty percent (80%) of the
five lowest "VWAP" for the Common Stock on the Principal Market, or on any
securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then
being listed or traded, for the thirty (30) trading days prior to but not
including the Conversion Date. "VWAP" shall mean the daily volume weighted
average prices of the Common Stock on the Principal Market as reported by
Bloomberg, L.P. using the AQR function.

                                       2

<PAGE>

          (c)  The Maximum Base Price described in Section 2.1(b)(i) above and
number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion
determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and 2.1(b), shall be subject to adjustment
from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion
right remains outstanding, as follows:

               A.  Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at any time
                   ---------------------------
shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or substantially all
its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to the unpaid principal
portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to
evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of shares or other
securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account
of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect to the
securities subject to the conversion or purchase right immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall
similarly apply to successive transactions of a similar nature by any such
successor or purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of such
successor or purchaser after any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.

               B.  Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by
                   ---------------------
reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a
different number of securities of any class or classes, this Note, as to the
unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter
be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such
securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of
such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such
reclassification or other change.

               C.  Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of
                   ----------------------------------------
Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of
shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares
of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case
of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the
case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears
to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such event.

               D.  Share Issuance. Subject to the provisions of this Section, if
                   --------------
the Borrower at any time shall issue any shares of Common Stock prior to the
conversion of the entire principal amount of the Note (otherwise than as: (i)
provided in Sections 2.1(c)A, 2.1(c)B or 2.1(c)C or this subparagraph D; or (ii)
pursuant to options, warrants, or other obligations to issue shares, outstanding
on the date hereof as set forth in the Schedules to the Purchase Agreement; ((i)
and (ii) above, are hereinafter referred to as the "Existing Option
Obligations") for a consideration less than the Conversion Price that would be
in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each
such issue, the Conversion Price shall be reduced as follows: (i) the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be
multiplied by the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue and the
product shall be added to the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the
Borrower upon such issue of additional shares of

                                       3

<PAGE>

Common Stock; and (ii) the sum so obtained shall be divided by the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue. The resulting
quotient shall be the adjusted conversion price. Except for the Existing Option
Obligations and options that may be issued under any employee incentive stock
option and/or any qualified stock option plan adopted by the Borrower, or
securities issued in connection with equipment leasing financings or other
related transactions, for purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any
security of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security into shares
of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock
shall result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights.

          (d)  During the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will
reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of
shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of
this Note. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly
and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower agrees that its
issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents,
and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of
Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

          2.2  Method of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder in
               --------------------
whole or in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof and the Purchase
Agreement. Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same
date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued
by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note and
interest which shall not have been converted or paid.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                EVENT OF DEFAULT

          The occurrence of any of the following events of default ("Event of
Default") shall, at the option of the Holder hereof, make all sums of principal
and interest then remaining unpaid hereon and all other amounts payable
hereunder immediately due and payable, except as set forth below:

if subject to cure, continues for a period of seven (7) days after written
