          (b)  Representations of Executive. In connection with the purchase and
               ----------------------------
sale of the Executive Stock hereunder, Executive hereby represents and warrants
to the Company, on the Closing Date, as set forth below.

               (i)   The Executive Stock shall be acquired for Executive's own
     account and not with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in
     violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
                                                               --------------
     or any applicable state securities laws, and the Executive Stock shall not
     be disposed of in contravention of the Securities Act, or any applicable
     state securities laws.

               (ii)  Executive is (A) an "accredited investor" as defined in
                                          -------------------
     Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act or (B) by reason of her business and
     financial experience, and the business and financial experience of those
     retained by Executive to advise her with respect to her investment in the
     Executive Stock being purchased hereunder, Executive, together with such
     advisors, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and
     financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the risks and benefits
     of the investment in the Executive Stock.

               (iii) Executive is able to bear the economic risk of her
     investment, including the complete loss of such investment in the Executive
     Stock to be purchased by the
<PAGE>

     Executive hereunder, for an indefinite period of time because the Executive
     Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore,
     cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or
     an exemption from such registration is available.

               (iv)  Executive has had an opportunity to ask questions and
     receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of
     Executive Stock hereunder and has had full access to such other information
     concerning the Company as she has requested.

               (v)   This Agreement, the Note and the Pledge Agreement
     constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Executive,
     enforceable against Executive in accordance with their respective terms,
     except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
     reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting
     creditors' rights generally, by general equitable principles (regardless of
     whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
     law) or by an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The
     execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Note and the
     Pledge Agreement by Executive do not and will not conflict with, violate or
     cause a breach of any agreement, contract or instrument to which Executive
     is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which Executive is subject.

          (c)  Executive Acknowledgment. As an inducement to the Company to
               ------------------------
issue the Executive Stock to Executive, and as a condition thereto, Executive
acknowledges and agrees, on the Closing Date, that neither the issuance of the
Executive Stock to Executive nor any provision contained herein shall entitle
Executive to remain in the employment of the Company or affect the right of the
Company to terminate Executive's employment at any time for any reason.

          (d)  Company and Executive Acknowledgment.  The Company and Executive
               ------------------------------------
acknowledge and agree that this Agreement, the Note and the Pledge Agreement
have been executed and delivered, and the shares of Executive Stock have been
issued hereunder, in connection with and as a part of the compensation and
incentive arrangements between the Company and Executive.

          (e)  Representations and Warranties of the Company. In connection with
               ---------------------------------------------
the purchase and sale of Executive Stock hereunder, the Company hereby
represents and warrants to Executive as set forth below.

               (i)   The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly
     existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

               (ii)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
     and the Pledge Agreement, and the making of the loan in the principal
     amount of $281,250 pursuant to which the Note is being made by Executive
     have been duly authorized by the Company. This Agreement and the Pledge
     Agreement constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company
     enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except as
     enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
     moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors'
     rights generally, by

                                                                             -2-
<PAGE>

     general equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is
     considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) or by an implied covenant
     of good faith and fair dealing.

               (iii) Any shares of the Company's capital stock acquired
     hereunder shall, upon payment of the Purchase Price by Executive as

                                     ------------

                                        ---------

     prior to the expiration of the deferral period.

               (iii) With respect to any registration pursuant to this Section

     provided, however, that if the managing underwriter advises the Company
     --------  -------

          (c)  At any time after filing but before the Registration Statement
covering Registrable Securities becomes effective, the Executive may request the
Company to withdraw or not to file the Registration Statement. In that event, if
such request of withdrawal shall not have been caused by, or made in response
to, (i) the material adverse effect of an event on the business, properties,
condition, financial or otherwise, or operations of the Company or (ii) a
material adverse change in the financial markets, the Executive shall have used
her demand registration right under this Section 2 and the Company shall no
                                         ---------

likely to adversely affect the price, timing or distribution of the securities

     Section 8.  Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this
                 ------------
Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any
jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect
any other provision or any other jurisdiction, and such invalid, void or
otherwise unenforceable provisions shall be null and void. It is the intent of
the parties, however, that any invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable
provisions be automatically replaced by other provisions which are as similar as
possible in terms to such invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable provisions
but are valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     Section 9.  Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire
                 ----------------
agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings, oral and written, among the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof.

     Section 10. Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in separate
                 ------------

together constitute one and the same agreement.

     Section 11. Successors and Assigns. To the extent applicable, this
                 ----------------------
Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
Executive and the Company and their respective successors and assigns, except
that Executive may not assign any of Executive's rights or obligations hereunder
(except as expressly provided herein).

     Section 12. Remedies. Each of the parties to this Agreement shall be
                 --------
entitled to enforce its or her rights under this Agreement specifically, to
recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and
to exercise all other rights existing in its or her favor. The parties hereto
agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any
breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that any party may in its or her
sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction
for preliminary injunctive relief, temporary restraining orders and/or any other
temporary equitable remedies in order to enforce or prevent any violations of
the provisions of this Agreement.

     Section 13. Amendments and Waivers.  Any provision of this Agreement may be
                 ----------------------
amended or waived only with the prior written consent of both parties hereto.

     Section 14. No Strict Construction.  The language used in this Agreement
                 ----------------------
shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their
mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any
person or entity.

                                                                             -8-

PROCEEDINGS, THAT SUCH COURT DOES NOT HAVE JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY.

AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER

FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS
RESPECTIVE LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY
TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH SUCH LEGAL COUNSEL.  THIS WAIVER IS
IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING,
AND THE WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS
OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT.  IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT
