the offer and sale to you under this Unit Purchase Agreement ("Agreement" or
"Purchase Agreement") and to other purchasers under similar Purchase Agreements
("Other Purchasers") of up to 875 Units (963 if the Company's over-allotment
option is exercised in full), each consisting of 2,000 shares of common stock,
par value $ .01 per share ("Common Stock"), of the Company ("Common Shares") and
warrants to purchase 500 shares Common Stock ("Warrants"). Each Warrant will
entitle the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock, at an exercise
price of $7.00 per share. The Unit price shall be $8,000 and no fractional Units
shall be sold unless agreed to by the Company and Paradise Valley Securities,
Inc., Sentra Securities Corporation and Spelman & Co., Inc., the Company's
placement agents in this offering (collectively, the "Placement Agents"). The
Common Shares and the Warrants underlying the Units shall conform to the
description thereof in the Memorandum (as defined below).

2.       PURCHASE AND SALE

         2.1 Units. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to you (sometimes referred to as
"Holder") the number of Units shown on the signature page hereof and you will
purchase the same from the Company; provided that Units in the aggregate amount
of at least $ 1,000,000 have been subscribed and paid for by you and the Other
Purchasers and all other terms and conditions set forth in this Purchase
Agreement are satisfied. You acknowledge that Units subscribed and paid for
(whether paid for by cash, cancellation of indebtedness or conversion of
outstanding shares of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock) by officers,
directors or employees of the Company, or by holders of the Company's
outstanding securities, or by officers or employees of any Placement Agent for
their own account, or by an affiliate of any of the foregoing, shall be counted
in determining whether all or any part of Units in the aggregate amount of at
least $1,000,000 have been subscribed and paid for.

          2.2 Funds Escrow Account. The funds tendered by you pursuant to this
Agreement will be deposited in a special escrow account (the "Fund") at the
First Arizona Savings and Loan Association ("Funds Escrow Agent"), whose address
is 4141 North Scottsdale Road, Suite 140, Scottsdale, Arizona 85251, and will be
returned to you without interest or deduction for escrow fees and expenses, if:
(a) your subscription for the purchase of Units pursuant to this Agreement has
not been accepted by the Company or (b) if Purchase Agreements for at least 125
Units and funds in the amount of at least $1,000,000 are not deposited in the
Fund before the close of business on November 14, 1997, which date may be
extended one or more times by agreement of the Company and the Placement Agents,
without notice to you and the Other Purchasers, to a date not later than
December 31, 1997 (the "Termination Date"). It is understood and agreed that if
this Agreement is accepted by the Company, and the funds in payment of a minimum
of 125 Units are received and accepted by the Company before the close of
business on the Termination Date, then at the Closing (as defined below) with
respect to the Units subscribed for by you, the funds tendered herewith (less
any fees paid to the Placement Agents), shall be delivered to the Company by the
Funds Escrow Agent in payment for the Units subscribed for by you, or such
lesser amount as may be allocated to you by the Company. If you are allocated
less than the full amount of the Units subscribed for by you and the full amount
of the Units subscribed for has been timely paid in full by you, the Company
shall instruct the Funds Escrow Agent to remit the overpayment of the amount
paid, without interest or deduction, to you within fifteen days after such
partial acceptance of this Purchase Agreement. The Units are being offered by
the Company subject to the right of the Company and Placement Agents to reject,
at their discretion, any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason, and
to accept subscriptions notwithstanding the order in which they are received.

         2.3 Closing . The purchase by and sale and delivery to you and Other
Purchasers of the Units (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of the
Placement Agents or of the Funds Escrow Agent at such date and time, or at such
other place, upon which the Company and the Placement Agents may agree (such
date being hereinafter called the "Closing Date"). At the Closing, the Company
shall deliver to a representative of the Placement Agents on your behalf,
instruments evidencing the Common Shares and Warrant comprising the Units being
purchased by you and other items required to be delivered to it pursuant to this
Purchase Agreement. If at any time prior to the Termination Date, subscriptions
for at least 125 Units have been received and accepted by the Company, and the
full purchase price for such Units have been deposited into the Fund, the
Company may have an initial closing ("Initial Closing") with respect to such
accepted subscriptions and continue to offer the remaining Units until the
Termination Date or all 875 Units (963 if the Company's over-allotment option is
exercised in full) have been sold, whichever occurs earlier; provided, however,
that the final Closing shall take place not later than ten days after the
Termination Date.

              (i) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant

          Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all
          such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective

          7.4  Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the
obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 7 with

securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting
as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by
other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such
quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not
materially jeopardize or in any way reduce the success of the offering by the
Company. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities,
requested by security holders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount
of securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in
their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the
Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such
securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine
in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the
securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling security
holders (including Holders) according to the total amount of securities entitled
to be included therein owned by each selling shareholder (including Holders) or
in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling
shareholders (including Holders)).

         7.7  Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or
seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as
the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the
interpretation or implementation of this Section 7.

          hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the 1933
          Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder
          or underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act
          against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities joint or several)
          to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or
          other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
          or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
          based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations
          (collectively a "Violation"): (i) any untrue statement or alleged
          untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration
          statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus
          contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the
          omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
          to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not
          misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company
          of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities law or any rule or
          regulation promulgated under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or any state
          securities law; and, subject to subsection 7.8 (c) below, the Company
          will pay to each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as
          incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in
          connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
          damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity
          agreement contained in this subsection 7.8(a) shall not apply to
          amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability,
          or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the
          Company (which consent shall not be reasonably withheld), nor shall
          the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim,
          damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is
          based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity
          with written information furnished expressly for use in connection
          with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling
          person.

              (b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will
          indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each
          of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each
          person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
          1933 Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such
          registration statement and any controlling person of any such
          underwriter or other Holder, and any agent of the Company, against any
          losses, claims, damages, or liabilities joint or several) to which any
          of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the
          1934 Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses,
          claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise
          out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent
          (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon
          and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder
          expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such
          Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably
          incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this
          subsection 7.8(b), in connection with investigating or defending any
          such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided,


                                       10
<PAGE>

          however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection
          7.8(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss,
          claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected
          without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be
          reasonably withheld; provided, that, in no event shall any indemnity
          under this subsection 7.8(b) exceed the gross proceeds from the
          offering received by such Holder.

              (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
          Section 7.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
          governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in
          respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under
          this Section 7.8, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice
          of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the
          right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so
          desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party receiving similar
          notice, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably
          satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified
          party (together with all other indemnified party which may be
          represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to
          retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by
          the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by
          the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate
          due to actual or potential differing interests between such
          indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in
          such proceeding; otherwise, the indemnified party shall be responsible
          for the fees and expenses of its counsel. The failure to deliver
          written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of
          the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to
          defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any
          liability to the indemnified party under this Section 7.8.

              (d) Except as provided in the last sentence of subsection 7.8(c)
          above, if the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.8 is held
          by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
          indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage,
          or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu
          of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to
          the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of
          such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as
          is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party
          on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in
          connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such
          loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other
          relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the
          indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by
          reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
          statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact
          relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the
          indemnified party.

              (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
          provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the
          underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the
          underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing
          provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall
          control.

                                       11

              (f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section
          7.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
          Securities pursuant to a registration statement under this Section 7.

         7.9  Assignment of Piggyback Rights. Subject to the provisions of
Section 7.10, the piggyback registration rights of the Holders under Section 7.2
may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a
permitted transferee or assignee of such securities who, after such assignment
or transfer, holds at least 10,000 shares of Registrable Securities (subject to
appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other
recapitalizations), provided: (a) the Company is, within a reasonable time after
such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such
transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such piggyback
registration rights are being assigned; (b) such transferee or assignee agrees
in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including without limitation the provisions of Section 7.10 below;
and (c) such assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such
transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or
assignee is restricted under the 1933 Act. For the purposes of determining the
number of shares of Registrable Securities held by a transferee or assignee, the
holdings of transferees and assignees of a partnership who are partners or
retired partners of such partnership (including spouses and ancestors, lineal
descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who acquire Registrable
Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) shall be aggregated together
and with the partnership; provided that all assignees and transferees who would
not qualify individually for assignment of registration rights shall have a
single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of exercising any rights, receiving
notices or taking any action under this Section 7.

         7.10 "Lock-up" Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that he or she
shall not, for the period commencing on the date of such Holder's Unit Purchase
Agreement and ending 120 days after the earlier of: (i) the effective date of a
registration statement under the 1933 Act covering all of the Registrable
Securities or (ii) the effective date of a registration statement filed by the
Company pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, without the prior written approval of
the Placement Agents and the managing underwriter in such registration directly
or indirectly, sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including without
limitation, any short sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer
or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any shares
of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
the Warrants) legally or beneficially owned by such Holder.

         In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each
Holder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the
foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

         7.11 Termination of Registration Rights. No Holder shall be entitled to
exercise any right provided for in this Section 7 after three (3) years
following the date after the Company becomes a Public Company.

                                       12
<PAGE>

         7.12 Extension of Warrant Exercise Period. In the event the holders of
Warrants are delayed in selling the shares of Common Stock underlying the
Warrants at the time such holders desire pursuant to the terms of Section 7.2 or
7.11, the parties hereto agree that the exercise period for the Warrants shall
be extended by the amount of such delay.

         7.13 Amendments and Waivers. Any term or provision of the registration
rights stated in this Section 7 may be amended and the observance of any term of
such rights may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and
either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the
Company and the holders of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with
this Section 7.13 shall be binding upon each holder of any Registrable
Securities then outstanding, each future holder of all such Registrable
Securities, and the Company.

         8.1  No Transfer or Assignment. You will not transfer or assign this

         SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
         STATEMENT FOR SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
         AMENDED, AND APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER
         JURISDICTION, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
