                                   ARTICLE II

virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the
Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

            (a) each share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the
Company (the "Company Common Stock") issued and outstanding immediately prior to
the

<PAGE>
                                       3


Effective Time (other than any Company Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to
Section 2.01(d) or constituting Dissenting Shares) shall be canceled and shall
be converted, subject to Section 2.02(e), into the right to receive one share
(the "Exchange Ratio") of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Parent
(the "Parent Common Stock"); provided, however, that, if between the date of
this Agreement and the Effective Time the outstanding shares of Parent Common
Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different
class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification,
recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares, the Exchange Ratio
shall be correspondingly adjusted to the extent appropriate to reflect such
stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split,
combination or exchange of shares;

            (b) each share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par
value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "Company Series A") issued and
outstanding prior to the Effective Time (other than any Company Series A
constituting Dissenting Shares) shall be canceled and shall be converted into
the right to receive one share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par
value $.01 per share, of Parent (the "New Series A").

            (c) each share of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par
value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "Company Series B") issued and
outstanding prior to the Effective Time (other than any Company Series B
constituting Dissenting Shares) (all issued and outstanding shares of Company
Common Stock, Company Series A and Company Series B being hereinafter
collectively referred to as "Shares") shall be canceled and shall be converted
into the right to receive one share of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock,
par value $.0l per share, of Parent (the "New Series B," and together with the
Parent Common Stock and the New Series A, the "Merger Consideration").

            (d) each Share held in the treasury of the Company and each Share
owned by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or
of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and
extinguished without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall
be made with respect thereto; and

            (e) each share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Merger
Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be
converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Surviving
Corporation and shall forthwith cease to exist and be deemed cancelled.

            SECTION 2.02. Exchange of Certificates. (a) Exchange Procedures. At
the Closing, the Company shall surrender to Parent all certificates representing
Shares (other than Dissenting Shares) (the "Certificates") delivered to it
(together with any stock transfer tax stamps required by reason of the payment
of the Merger Consideration to a person other than the registered holder of the
Certificate surrendered), together with such other customary documents as may
reasonably be required by Parent, in exchange for the Merger Consideration. The

<PAGE>
                                       4


Certificates are being issued without registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, the "Securities Act"), and shall bear any legend required under
applicable securities laws. Immediately following the Effective Time, all
Certificates surrendered to Parent shall be canceled. Any shareholder of the
Company whose Certificates are not delivered at the Closing shall receive the
Merger Consideration with respect to such Certificates upon delivery to Parent
after the Closing of such Certificates and the other items required pursuant to
the first sentence of this Section 2.02(a).

            (b) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares of Parent
Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the
Effective Time with respect to the Parent Common Stock with a record date after
the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate
with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock represented thereby, and no
cash payment in lieu of any fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder
pursuant to Section 2.02(d), until the holder of such Certificate shall
surrender such Certificate.

            (c) No Further Rights in Company Common Stock. All shares of Parent
Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Company Common Stock in accordance
with the terms hereof (including any cash paid pursuant to Section 2.02(b) or
(d)) shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights
pertaining to such Company Common Stock.

            (d) No Fractional Shares. No certificate or scrip representing
fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for
exchange of Certificates, and such fractional share interests will not entitle
the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Parent.
Each holder of a fractional share interest shall be paid an amount in cash
(without interest) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) such
fractional share interest to which such holder (after taking into account all
fractional share interests then held by such holder) would otherwise be entitled
by (ii) the average of the per share closing prices on the OTC Bulletin Board
(the "OTC") of shares of Parent Common Stock during the 20 consecutive trading
days ending on (and including) the trading day immediately preceding the date of
the Effective Time. As promptly as practicable after the determination of the
amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of fractional share interests, the
Parent shall forward payments to such holders of fractional share interests
subject to and in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.02(b).

            (e) No Liability. Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall
be liable to any holder of Shares for any such Shares (or dividends or
distributions with respect thereto), or cash delivered to a public official
pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

            (f) Withholding Rights. Each of the Surviving Corporation and Parent
shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise
payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares such amounts as it is
required to deduct and withhold with

<PAGE>
                                       5


respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state,
local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the
Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall
be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder
of Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the
Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be.

            (g) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost,
stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person
claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by
the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such person of a bond, in such
reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against
any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the
Parent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the
Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common
Stock to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.02(d) and
any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled
pursuant to Section 2.02(f).

            SECTION 2.03. Stock Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock
transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further
registration of transfers of Shares thereafter on the records of the Company.
From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates representing
Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have
any rights with respect to such Shares, except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement or by Law.

            SECTION 2.04. Company Stock Options and Warrants. (a) All options
and warrants (the "Company Stock Options and Warrants") outstanding, whether or
not exercisable and whether or not vested, at the Effective Time, shall remain
outstanding following the Effective Time. At the Effective Time, the Company
Stock Options and Warrants shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any
further action on the part of the Company or the holder thereof, be assumed by
Parent in such manner that Parent (i) is a corporation "assuming a stock option
in a transaction to which Section 424(a) applies" within the meaning of Section
424 of the Code and the regulations thereunder or (ii) to the extent that
Section 424 of the Code does not apply to any such Company Stock Option and/or
Warrant, would be such a corporation were Section 424 of the Code applicable to
such Company Stock Option and/or Warrant. Each Company Stock Option and Warrant
assumed by Parent (each, a "Substitute Option and Warrant") shall be exercisable
upon the same terms and conditions as under the applicable option and/or warrant
agreement issued thereunder, except that (A) each such Substitute Option and
Warrant shall be exercisable for, and represent the right to acquire, that whole
number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded up or down to the nearest whole
share) equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such
Company Stock Option and/or Warrant multiplied by the Exchange Ratio; and (B)
the option or warrant price per share of Parent Common Stock shall be an amount
equal to the option or warrant price per share of Company Common Stock subject
to such Company Stock Option and/or Warrant in effect immediately

<PAGE>
                                       6


prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio (the option or warrant
price per share, as so determined, being rounded upward to the nearest full
cent).

            (b) As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall
deliver to each holder of an outstanding Company Stock Option and/or Warrant an
appropriate notice setting forth such holder's rights pursuant thereto and such
Company Stock Option and/or Warrant shall continue in effect on the same terms
and conditions (including any antidilution provisions, and subject to the
adjustments required by this Section 2.04 after giving effect to the Merger).
Parent shall comply with the terms of all such Company Stock Options and
Warrants and ensure that Company Stock Options and Warrants which qualified as
incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code prior to the Effective
Time continue to qualify as incentive stock options after the Effective Time.
Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a
sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of
Substitute Options and/or Warrants pursuant to the terms set forth in this
Section 2.04. As soon as practicable, but in no event more than 5 business days,
after the Effective Time, the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to Company
Stock Options and Warrants will be covered by an effective registration
statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) or another appropriate form, and
Parent shall use its reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such
registration statement or registration statements for so long as Substitute
Options and Warrants remain outstanding. In addition, Parent shall use all
reasonable efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to Company
Stock Options and Warrants to be listed on the OTC and such other exchanges as
Parent shall determine.

            SECTION 2.05. Dissenting Shares. (a) Notwithstanding any provision
of this Agreement to the contrary, Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into
or represent a right to receive shares of the Merger Consideration pursuant to
Section 2.01, but the holder thereof shall only be entitled to such rights as
are granted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

            (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a), if any holder
of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to
perfect or otherwise) such holder's dissenters' rights, then, as of the later of
Effective Time or the occurrence of such event, such holder's shares shall
automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the
applicable shares of the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, upon
surrender of the certificate or certificates representing such Dissenting
Shares.

            (c) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written
demands received by the Company to require the Company to purchase shares of
capital stock of the Company, withdrawals of such demands, and any other
instruments served pursuant to the dissenters' rights provisions of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and received by the Company and (ii)
the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect
to such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written

<PAGE>
                                       7


consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any such demands
or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

                                   ARTICLE III

                  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

            Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule delivered by the
Company to the Parent and the Merger Sub concurrently with the execution of this
Agreement (the "Company Disclosure Schedule"), the Company hereby represents and
warrants to Parent and Merger Sub that:

            SECTION 3.01. Organization and Qualification; Subsidiaries. Each of
the Company and each subsidiary of the Company (the "Company Subsidiaries") is a
corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate
power and to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business
as it is now being conducted, except where the failure to be so organized,
existing or in good standing or to have such corporate power, have not had, and
could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined below). Each of the Company and the
Company Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation to
do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character
of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its business
makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except for such failures to be
so qualified or licensed and in good standing that have not had, and could not
reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company
Material Adverse Effect. The term "Company Material Adverse Effect" means any
change in or effect on the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries
that is materially adverse to the financial condition or results of operations
of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries taken as a whole, except for any
such changes or effects resulting from or arising in connection with (i) this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the announcement
hereof, (ii) any changes in economic, regulatory or political conditions or
(iii) any issue or condition otherwise known to Parent prior to the date of this
Agreement.

            SECTION 3.02. Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws. The Company
has heretofore made available to Parent a complete and correct copy of the
Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws of the Company. Such Certificate of
Incorporation and By-Laws are in full force and effect. The Company is not in
violation of any of the provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation or
By-Laws.

            SECTION 3.03. Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the
Company consists of (a) 50,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock and (b)
10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share. As of the date
of this Agreement, (i) 1,000 shares of

<PAGE>
                                       8


Company Common Stock are issued and outstanding, all of which are validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and (ii) 5,750,000 shares are reserved for
future issuance pursuant to the Company Stock Options, Warrants and other
obligations to issue Shares. As of the date of this Agreement, 2,000,000 shares
of the Company Series A were issued and outstanding, all of which were validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Except for the Company Stock Options and
Warrants, the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock upon the conversion of
the Company Series A, there are no options, warrants or other rights,
agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character relating to the issued
or unissued capital stock of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or obligating
the Company or any Company Subsidiary to issue or sell any shares of capital
stock of, or other equity interests in, the Company or any Company Subsidiary.
All shares of Company Common Stock subject to issuance as aforesaid, upon
issuance on the terms and conditions specified in the instruments pursuant to
which they are issuable, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable. There are no outstanding contractual obligations of the Company
or any Company Subsidiary to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares
of Company Common Stock or any capital stock of any Company Subsidiary. Each
outstanding share of capital stock of each Company Subsidiary is duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and each such share
owned by the Company or another Company Subsidiary is free and clear of all
security interests, liens, claims, pledges, options, rights of first refusal,
agreements, limitations on the Company's or such other Company Subsidiary's
voting rights, charges and other encumbrances of any nature whatsoever, except
where failure to own such shares free and clear would not, individually or in
the aggregate, have a Company Material Adverse Effect. There are no material
outstanding contractual obligations of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to
provide funds to, or make any investment (in the form of a loan, capital
contribution or otherwise) in, any Company Subsidiary or any other person.

            SECTION 3.04. Authority Relative to This Agreement. The Company has
all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the Merger
and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of
the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been
duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no other
corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this
Agreement or to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered
by the Company and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by
Parent and Merger Sub, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

            SECTION 3.05. No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents. (a) The
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company do not, and the
performance of this Agreement by the Company will not, (i) conflict with or

equivalent organizational documents of any Company Subsidiary, (ii)

assuming that all consents, approvals, authorizations and other actions
described in Section 3.05(b) have been obtained and all filings and obligations
described in Section 3.05(b) have been made, conflict with or violate any
foreign or domestic law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, judgment
or decree ("Law") applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or by
which any property or asset of the Company or any Company Subsidiary is bound or
affected, or (iii) result in any breach of 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 right of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation
of, or result in the creation of a lien or other encumbrance on any property or
asset of the Company or any Company Subsidiary pursuant to, any note, bond,
mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license, permit, franchise or
other instrument or obligation, except, with respect to clause (iii), for any
such conflicts, violations, breaches, defaults or other occurrences that have
not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect, and that could not reasonably be
expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

            (b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company do
not, and the performance of this Agreement by the Company will not, require any
consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification
to, any domestic or foreign governmental or regulatory authority ("Governmental
Entity"), except (i) for applicable requirements, if any, of state securities or
"blue sky" laws ("Blue Sky Laws"), state takeover laws, the filing and
recordation of appropriate merger documents as required by the DGCL and (ii)
where failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or
to make such filings or notifications, has not had, and could not reasonably be
expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse
Effect, and could not reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

            SECTION 3.06. Permits; Compliance. (a) Each of the Company and the
Company Subsidiaries is in possession of all franchises, grants, authorizations,
licenses, permits, easements, variances, exceptions, consents, certificates,
approvals and orders of any Governmental Entity necessary for the Company or any
Company Subsidiary to own, lease and operate its properties or to carry on its
business as it is now being conducted (the "Company Permits"), except where the
failure to have, or the suspension or cancellation of, any of the Company
Permits has not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect, and, as of the date of
this Agreement, no suspension or cancellation of any of the Company Permits is
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, except where the
failure to have, or the suspension or cancellation of, any of the Company
Permits has not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

            (b) Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is in conflict
with, or in default or violation of, (i) any Law applicable to the Company or
any Company Subsidiary

<PAGE>
                                       10


or by which any property or asset of the Company or any Company Subsidiary is
bound or affected, (ii) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract,

Company Subsidiary is bound or affected or (iii) any Company Permits, except, in
the case of each of (i), (ii) and (iii), for any such conflicts, defaults or

            SECTION 3.07. Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Since the date
of its organization, except as contemplated by or as disclosed in this
Agreement, the Company has conducted its businesses only in the ordinary course
and in a manner consistent with past practice and, since such date, there has
not been (a) any material change by the Company in its accounting methods,
principles or practices, (b) any declaration, setting aside or payment of any
dividend or distribution in respect of the Commons Stock or any redemption,
purchase or other acquisition of any of the Company's securities or (c) any
increase in or establishment of any bonus, insurance, severance, deferred
compensation, pension, retirement, profit sharing, stock option (including,
without limitation, the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights,
performance awards or restricted stock awards), stock purchase or other employee
benefit plan, or any other increase in the compensation payable or to become
payable to any executive officers of the Company, except in the ordinary course
of business.

            SECTION 3.08. Absence of Litigation. Except as set forth on Section
3.08 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, as of the date of this Agreement, there
is no litigation, suit, claim, action, proceeding or investigation pending or,
to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company, or any property
or asset of the Company, before any court, arbitrator or governmental entity,
domestic or foreign, which (i) has had, or could reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company or

neither the Company nor any property or asset of the Company is subject to any
continuing order of, consent decree, settlement agreement or other similar
written agreement with, or, to the knowledge of the Company, continuing
investigation by, any governmental entity, or any order, writ, judgment,

on the Company.

            SECTION 3.09. Employee Benefit Plans; Labor Matters. With respect to

            Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule delivered by Parent
and Merger Sub to the Company concurrently with the execution of this Agreement
(the "Parent Disclosure Schedule") and the Parent SEC Reports (as defined in
Section 4.07), Parent and Merger Sub hereby jointly and severally represent and
warrant to the Company that:

            SECTION 4.01. Organization and Qualification; Subsidiaries. Each of
Parent and each subsidiary of Parent (the "Parent Subsidiaries") is a
corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has all corporate requisite
power and authority and all necessary governmental approvals to own, lease and
operate its properties and to carry on its business as it is now being
conducted, except where the failure to be so organized, existing or in good
standing or to have such corporate power, authority and governmental approvals
have not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in
the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect (as defined below). Each of
Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed as a foreign
corporation to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where
the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of
its business makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except for such
failures to be so qualified or licensed and in good standing that have not had,
and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate,
a Parent Material Adverse Effect. The term "Parent Material Adverse Effect"
means any change in or effect on the business of Parent and the Parent
Subsidiaries that is materially adverse to the financial condition or results of
operations of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries taken as a whole, except for
any such changes or effects resulting from or in connection with (i) this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the announcement

By-Laws are in full force and effect. Neither Parent nor

<PAGE>
                                       15


Merger Sub is in violation of any of the provisions of its Certificate of
Incorporation or By-Laws.

            SECTION 4.03. Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of Parent
consists of (a) 50,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock and (b) 10,000,000
shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Parent Preferred
Stock"). As of the date of this Agreement, (i) 7,000,000 shares of the Parent
Common Stock are issued and outstanding, all of which are validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable. Parent has filed with the Secretary of the State of
Delaware Certificates of Designation with respect to the New Series A with terms
substantially identical to the terms of the Company Series A, and Certificates
of Designation with respect to the New Series B with terms substantially

Agreement, no shares of Parent Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.
There are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or
commitments of any character relating to the issued or unissued capital stock of
Parent or any Parent Subsidiary or Obligating Parent or any Parent Subsidiary to
issue or sell any shares of capital stock of, or other equity interests in,
Parent or any Parent Subsidiary. All shares of Parent Common Stock subject to
issuance as aforesaid, upon issuance on the terms and conditions specified in
the instruments pursuant to which they are issuable, will be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. There are no outstanding
contractual obligations of Parent or any Parent Subsidiary to repurchase, redeem
or otherwise acquire any shares of Parent Common Stock or any capital stock of
any Parent Subsidiary. Immediately prior to the filing of this Agreement, Parent
intends to exercise a right to purchase for cancellation 4,000,000 Parent Common
Stock for $1.00. Each outstanding share of capital stock of each Parent
Subsidiary is duly authorized, validly issued, frilly paid and non-assessable
and each such share owned by Parent or another Parent Subsidiary is free and
clear of all security interests, liens, claims, pledges, options, rights of
first refusal, agreements, limitations on Parent's or such other Parent
Subsidiary's voting rights, charges and other encumbrances of any nature
whatsoever, except where failure to own such shares free and clear would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. There
are no material outstanding contractual obligations of Parent or any Parent
Subsidiary to provide funds to, or make any investment (in the form of a loan,
capital contribution or otherwise) in, any Parent Subsidiary or any other
person. The authorized capital stock of Merger Sub consists of 1,000 shares of
common stock, par value $.001 per share, all of which are duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of any preemptive rights
in respect thereof and all of which are owned by Parent. The shares of Parent
Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger in accordance with Section
2.01(i) will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
and not subject to preemptive rights created by statute, the Parent's
Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws or any agreement to which the Parent is
a party or is bound and (ii) will, when issued, be exempt from registration
under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the "Exchange
Act") and exempt from registration under applicable Blue Sky Laws.
