                                   ARTICLE II

                  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY
                  ---------------------------------------------

         The Company represents and warrants to the Investors as follows,  which
representations  and  warranties  are true as of the date  hereof  and as of the
First Closing Date and each Subsequent Closing Date:

         Section 2.1 Corporate  Organization.  The Company is a corporation duly
incorporated,  validly  existing and  subsisting  under the laws of the State of
Delaware.  The Company has all requisite power and authority to own, operate and
lease its  properties  and to conduct its business as currently  conducted.  The
Company is duly  qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in
each  jurisdiction  in which its ownership or leasing of property or the conduct
of its business requires such licensing or  qualification,  except to the extent
that the  failure  to be so  qualified  or  licensed  would not have a  Material
Adverse Effect (as defined below). As used in this Agreement,  "Material Adverse
Effect" means any event,  circumstance or development  which  individually or in
the aggregate could have a material adverse effect on the business,  properties,
operations, condition (financial or otherwise), assets, liabilities, tradability
of the Common Stock,  earnings or results of operations of the Company or on the
transactions contemplated hereby.

         Section  2.2  Subsidiaries.  Except as set forth in Schedule  2.2,  the
Company does not directly or indirectly own any equity or similar  interest,  or
any interest  convertible  into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity or
similar interest,  in any corporation,  partnership,  limited liability company,
joint venture or other business association, entity or person.

         Section 2.3 Authorization. The Company has all requisite power and full
legal right to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Ancillary  Agreements,
and to perform all of its  obligations  hereunder  and  thereunder in accordance
with the respective  terms hereof and thereof.  This Agreement and the Ancillary
Agreements and the transactions  contemplated  hereby and thereby have been duly
approved and  authorized  by all requisite  corporate  action on the part of the
Company,  and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company
and  constitutes,  and  each of the  Ancillary  Agreements,  when  executed  and
delivered by the Company at the Closings,  will constitute,  a legal, valid, and
binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its
respective  terms,  except as such  enforceability  may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,  moratorium, liquidation or similar laws
relating  to the  enforcement  of  creditors'  rights and  remedies  or by other
equitable  principles  of general  application.  The  execution,  delivery,  and
performance  by the Company of this  Agreement and the  Ancillary  Agreements in
accordance with their  respective  terms, and the consummation by the Company of
the  transactions  contemplated  hereby or  thereby,  will not  result  (with or
without  the  giving of  notice  or the lapse of time or both) in any  conflict,
violation,  breach, or default, or the creation of any Lien, or the termination,
acceleration,  vesting, or modification of any right or obligation,  under or in
respect of (x) the Amended and Restated  Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws
of the Company, (y) any judgment,  decree,  order,  statute,  rule or regulation
binding on or applicable  to the Company,  or (z) any agreement or instrument to
which  the  Company  is a party or by which  it or any of its  assets  is or are
bound.

         Section 2.4 Capitalization. (a) Immediately prior to the First Closing,
and immediately prior to each Subsequent Closing, as the case may be, not giving
effect to the sale and purchase of the Purchased  Units,  the authorized and the
outstanding capital stock of the Company (on a Fully Diluted Basis including all
Derivative  Securities)  will  be  as  set  forth  in  Schedule  2.4.  All  such
outstanding  shares of capital stock will be duly  authorized,  validly  issued,
fully  paid,  and  nonassessable,  and will have been  issued  free and clear of
Liens.  Except as set forth in Schedule 2.4, no adjustment has  previously  been
made (or should have been made) nor will any  adjustment  be required to be made
as a result of the  Company's  issuance  of the  Purchased  Units to the rate at
which  any  shares  of  any  class  of the  equity  securities  of the  Company,
subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, commitments or agreements or Derivative
Securities  of the Company are  convertible  into or  exercisable  for shares of
Common Stock,  Derivative Securities or shares of other equity securities of the
Company  (by  reason  of  any   "anti-dilution"   provisions  or  agreements  or
otherwise).

               (b) Except as set forth on Schedule  2.4,  the  Company  does not
have,  is not  bound  by,  and has no  obligation  to grant or enter  into,  any
outstanding subscriptions,  options, warrants, calls, commitments, or agreements
of any  character  calling  for it to issue,  deliver,  or sell,  or cause to be
issued,  delivered,  or sold, any shares of its capital stock,  any other equity
security, or any securities convertible into,  exchangeable for, or representing
the right to subscribe  for,  purchase,  or otherwise  acquire any shares of its
capital stock or any other equity security.

               (c) Except as set forth in Schedule  2.4,  the Company (i) has no
outstanding  obligations,  contractual or otherwise,  to repurchase,  redeem, or
otherwise  acquire any shares of capital stock or other equity securities of the
Company, (ii) is not a party to or bound by any agreement or instrument relating
to the voting of any of its securities,  and (iii) is not a party to or bound by
any agreement or  instrument  under which any person has the right to require it
to effect, or to include any securities held by such person in, any registration
under the Securities Act (as defined in Section 2.7).

               (d) All of the  Purchased  Units  have  been  offered  and at the
Closings  will be  issued  and  sold,  in  compliance  with  (i) all  applicable
preemptive or similar rights of all persons,  and (ii) assuming the truthfulness
and accuracy of the  representations  made by the Investors in Section 3 hereof,
all applicable  provisions of the  Securities Act and the rules and  regulations
thereunder,  and  all  applicable  state  securities  laws  and  the  rules  and
regulations thereunder and other applicable securities laws and regulations.

               (e) The  Purchased  Units  (which,  for  purposes of this Section
2.4(e)  shall be deemed to include  all  shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon
conversion  of the  Debentures  and all  shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon
exercise of the  Warrants)  shall,  upon  issuance  pursuant to the terms hereof
and/or the terms of the  Debentures,  as the case may be, be duly authorized and
validly issued,  fully paid and  non-assessable  and free and clear of any Lien,
security  interest,  option  or  other  charge  or  encumbrance  and free of all
preemptive and other third party rights.

         Section 2.5 Financial Statements.  The Company has previously delivered
to the  Investors,  or made the Investors  aware of how to obtain,  complete and
correct  copies  of  its  audited  balance  sheets,  statements  of  income  and
statements of cash flows as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002,
2001 and 2000 and the unaudited balance sheet, statement of income and statement
of cash flows as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.  All such financial
statements  were  prepared  from  the  books  and  records  of the  Company,  in
conformity  with GAAP applied on a consistent  basis,  are complete and correct,
contain provisions for all significant  accruals or contingencies and fairly and
accurately  present the financial  position of the Company as of the  respective
dates  thereof and the results of  operations  and cash flows of the Company for
the periods  shown  therein.  No event has  occurred and nothing has come to the
attention of the Company since the date of the Balance Sheet (as defined  below)
that would indicate that such  financial  statements are not true and correct as
of the date hereof.

         Section 2.6 No  Undisclosed  or Contingent  Liabilities.  Except as set
forth in Schedule  2.6, the Company has no  liabilities  or  obligations  of any
nature (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether due or to
become due) which are not fully  reflected  or  reserved  against on the balance
sheet as of June 30, 2003  (including the footnotes and schedules  thereto,  the
"Balance Sheet") in accordance with GAAP, except for liabilities and obligations
incurred in the ordinary  course of business and  consistent  with past practice
since the date thereof.

permits  and other  authorizations  that the  failure to obtain or  maintain  in

be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         Section 2.12 Governmental Consents.  Except for the filing of any forms

therefor  as  required  under  GAAP have been  made on the  Company's  financial
records and on the financial  statements  described in Section 2.5. No claim has

and returns that were not filed in a timely manner or for any other  reason.  No
deficiency or proposed  adjustment in respect of Taxes that has not been settled
or  otherwise  resolved  has been  asserted or assessed by any taxing  authority
against the Company which is not accrued on the Balance  Sheet.  The Company has
not  consented  to extend the time in which any Tax may be assessed or collected
by any taxing  authority.  As used in this Section  2.13,  the terms "Taxes" and

limitation,  income, unemployment,  withholding,  payroll, social security, real
property,  personal property,  excise,  sales, use and franchise taxes,  levies,

2002,  or the  Company's  quarterly  report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended
June 30,  2003,  there is no  action,  suit or  proceeding  pending  or,  to the
knowledge of the Company,  threatened  against the Company,  before any court or
arbitrator  or any  governmental  body,  agency or  official in which there is a
reasonable  likelihood of a decision which could have a Material  Adverse Effect
on the business,  condition (financial or otherwise),  operations,  performance,
properties or prospects of the Company or which  challenges the validity of this
Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

         Section  2.15 Title to  Properties.  The Company  does not own any real
property.  Except as set forth on Schedule 2.15, the Company has title to all of
its properties and assets free and clear of all Liens, charges and encumbrances,

imperfections of title, if any, that do not materially detract from the value of
or interfere with the present use of the property affected thereby.  There is no
existing  default or event of default  (or event  which with  notice or lapse of
time,  or both,  would  constitute  a default)  by the  Company  under any lease
pursuant to which the Company leases real or personal property.

         Section 2.16 Contracts and Commitments. Except as set forth in Schedule
2.16,  the Company is not a party or subject to or bound by (whether  written or
oral), nor has it committed to enter into in the future:

               (a) any  agreement,  which,  in the future,  would lead to (i) an
acquisition,  merger or similar transaction with respect to the Company, or (ii)
a debt or equity  financing for the Company  (other than this  Agreement and the
Ancillary Agreements);

               (b) any agreement  requiring it to purchase all or  substantially
all of its  requirements  for a particular  product or service from a particular

2.17, all patents, patent applications,  trademarks, trade names, service marks,
logos and copyrights and other intellectual  property used in or material to the
Company's  business  as now  being  conducted  or as  proposed  to be  conducted
(collectively,  and  together  with any  technology,  know-how,  trade  secrets,
processes,  formulas,  and  techniques  used  in or  material  to the  Company's

litigation (or other  proceedings in or before any court or other  governmental,
adjudicatory,  arbitral,  or  administrative  body) relating to the  Proprietary
Information is pending or, to the Company's knowledge,  threatened,  nor, to the
Company's knowledge, is there any basis for any such litigation or proceeding.

               (c)  Except  as set  forth on  Schedule  2.17,  to the  Company's

property or any  proprietary  or  confidential  information  of any  Person.  No
litigation (or other  proceedings in or before any court or other  governmental,
adjudicatory,  arbitral,  or  administrative  body)  charging  the Company  with
infringement  or unlawful  use of any  patent,  trademark,  copyright,  or other
proprietary right is pending or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened; nor, to
the  Company's  knowledge,  is  there  any  basis  for any  such  litigation  or
proceeding.

         Section  2.24  Internal  Accounting  Controls.  Except  as set forth in
Schedule  2.24, the Company and its  subsidiaries  maintain a system of internal
accounting  controls  sufficient  to  provide  reasonable   assurance  that  (i)
transactions  are executed in accordance with  management's  general or specific
authorizations,   (ii)   transactions   are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit
preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles  and to maintain  asset  accountability,  (iii) access to
assets is permitted  only in accordance  with  management's  general or specific
authorization,  and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with
the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with
respect to any  differences.  There are no  disagreements  of any kind presently
existing,  or  reasonably  anticipated  by the  Company  to arise,  between  the
accountants and lawyers formerly or presently employed by the Company that could
reasonably  be  expected  to delay the filing or  processing  of a  registration
statement  with the SEC.  The Company has  established  disclosure  controls and
procedures  (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Company
and designed  such  disclosure  controls and  procedures to ensure that material
information relating to the Company,  including its subsidiaries,  is made known
to the certifying officers by others within those entities,  particularly during
the period in which the Company's Form 10-KSB or 10-QSB,  as the case may be, is
being   prepared.   The  Company's   certifying   officers  have  evaluated  the
effectiveness  of the Company's  controls and  procedures as of a date within 90
days prior to the filing date of the Form 10-QSB for the quarter  ended June 30,
2003 (such date,  the  "Evaluation  Date").  The Company  presented  in the Form
10-QSB for the quarter  ended June 30, 2003 the  conclusions  of the  certifying
officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based
on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there
have been no  significant  changes in the Company's  internal  controls (as such
term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation  S-B under the Exchange Act) or, to
the Company's  knowledge,  in other factors that could significantly  affect the
Company's internal controls.

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

         Section 7.1 Independent  Nature of Purchasers'  Obligations and Rights.
The Company acknowledges each of the following: The obligations of each Investor
participating in this transaction are several and not joint with the obligations
of any other  Investor,  and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the
performance of the obligations of any other Investor.  Nothing  contained herein
or in any other agreement, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership,  an association, a
joint  venture  or any other kind of entity,  or create a  presumption  that the
Investors  are in any way acting in concert or as a "group"  (within the meaning
of Sections 13 and 16 of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder),
in each case with respect to such obligations or the  transactions  contemplated
hereunder.  Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce
its  rights,  including  without  limitation  the  rights  arising  out of  this
Agreement or out of the other agreements  relating to this  transaction,  and it
shall not be  necessary  for any other  Investor  to be joined as an  additional


                                       15

party in any proceeding for such purpose.  Each Investor has been represented by
its own separate  legal  counsel (or has chosen not to be  represented  by legal
counsel)  in its  review  and  negotiation  of this  agreement  and the  related
transaction documents. The Company has elected to provide various Investors with
the same terms and agreements for the convenience of the Company and not because
it was required or requested to do so by the Investors.

         Section 7.2 Waivers and  Consents.  For the purposes of this  Agreement
and all agreements  executed  pursuant hereto,  no course of dealing between the
Company  and the  Investors  and no  delay on the part of any  party  hereto  in
exercising any rights  hereunder or thereunder  shall operate as a waiver of the
rights hereof or thereof.  No provision hereof may be waived except by a written
instrument signed by the party so waiving such provision.

         Section 7.3 Governing  Law;  Jurisdiction;  Venue etc.  This  Agreement
shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of
the State of Delaware,  without  giving effect to the principles of conflicts of
law  thereof.  The state and federal  courts of the State of New York located in
New York County shall have  exclusive  jurisdiction  to hear and  determine  any
claims or disputes  between the Investors and the other party or parties  hereto
pertaining   directly  or  indirectly  to  this  Agreement  and  all  documents,
instruments and agreements  executed  pursuant hereto,  or to any matter arising
therefrom  (unless  otherwise  expressly  provided for  therein);  the exclusive
choice of forum set forth in this  Section  7.3 shall not be deemed to  preclude
the  enforcement  of any  judgment  obtained  in such forum or the taking of any
action to enforce  the same in any other  appropriate  jurisdiction.  All of the
parties  hereto  waive all rights to trial by jury in any  action or  proceeding
instituted  by any party against any other party arising out of, on or by reason
of this Agreement or the documents and transactions contemplated herein.

         Section 7.4 Headings.  The descriptive  headings in this Agreement have
been inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise
affect the construction or interpretation of any provision thereof or hereof.

         Section 7.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously
in any number of  counterparts,  each of which when so  executed  and  delivered
shall  be  taken  to  be an  original;  but  such  counterparts  shall  together
constitute but one and the same document.

         Section 7.6 Notices and Demands. Any notice or demand which is required
or  provided  to be given  under  this  Agreement  shall be  deemed to have been
sufficiently  given and received for all purposes  when  delivered by hand or by
telecopy that has been confirmed as received by 5:00 P.M. on a business day, one
(1) business day after being sent by nationally  recognized overnight courier or
received by telecopy after 5:00 P.M. on any day, or five (5) business days after
being sent by certified or registered mail, postage and charges prepaid,  return
receipt requested, to the following addresses:

                        below   their   respective   names   on  the
                        signature pages hereto.

         Section 7.7  Severability.  Whenever  possible,  each provision of this
Agreement  shall be  interpreted  in such a manner as to be effective  and valid
under  applicable  law, but if any provision of this  Agreement  shall be deemed
prohibited  or invalid  under  such  applicable  law,  such  provision  shall be
ineffective  to  the  extent  of  such  prohibition  or  invalidity,   and  such
prohibition  or invalidity  shall not invalidate the remainder of such provision
or the other  provisions  of this  Agreement,  provided,  however,  that no such
severability shall be effective if it materially changes the economic benefit of
this Agreement to any party.

         Section  7.8  Integration.  This  Agreement,  including  the  exhibits,
documents and instruments referred to herein or therein,  constitutes the entire
agreement,  and supersedes any other prior agreements and  understandings,  both
written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

         Section 7.9  Publicity.  The Company and the  Investors  shall have the
right to approve  before  issuance  of any press  releases  or any other  public
statements  is sought to be made by the other with  respect to the  transactions
contemplated  hereby,  except for any  disclosures  required in connection  with
obtaining any consents to the transactions  contemplated by this Agreement.  The
Company  shall  have the  right to  issue  any  press  release  or other  public
statement in connection with the transaction  contemplated hereby, excluding the
identity of the Investors,  without the prior consent of the Investors,  but may
disclose  the  identity  of the  Investors  upon  prior  written  consent of the
Investors, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall also have
the right to file this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements with the SEC under
the  Securities  Act or the Exchange Act if required by such acts or regulations
thereunder.

         Section 7.10  Expenses.  The Company and the  Investors  will each bear
their own costs and expenses and those of their  respective  advisors related to
the transactions herein contemplated.

         Section 7.11 Assignment.  (a) The Company may not assign this Agreement
or its rights and obligations hereunder.



                                       17
<PAGE>

               (b) The rights and obligations  hereunder and the Purchased Units
(or a component thereof) may be transferred by each of the Investors in its sole
discretion  at any  time,  in  whole  or in  part,  to (i) any  Affiliate(s)  or
Affiliated  Group(s) of the  transferor or (ii) with the consent of the Company,
which shall not be unreasonably  withheld,  delayed,  or conditioned,  any party
that is an "accredited  investor" (as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the
Securities Act), without the consent of any other party thereto.

               (c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 7.11, no
Person acquiring any Common Stock in a public trade shall receive the benefit of
any of the covenants set forth in this Agreement as an assignee thereof.

               (d)  Subject  to  clause  (c)  immediately   above,   any  Person
acquiring,  in a manner  permitted by this  Agreement,  any Units (or components
thereof) and/or rights of an Investor under this Agreement  shall  constitute an
Investor for purposes of this Agreement and any reference to an Investor in this
Agreement shall also refer to any such Person.

         Section 7.12 Equitable  Relief.  Each of the parties  acknowledges that
any breach by such party of his  obligations  under this  Agreement  would cause
substantial and irreparable  damage to one or more of the other parties and that
money damages would be an inadequate  remedy therefor.  Accordingly,  each party
agrees that the other parties or any of them will be entitled to an  injunction,
specific performance and/or other equitable relief to prevent the breach of such
obligations.

         Section 7.13 Usage.  All pronouns and any  variations  thereof refer to
the  masculine,  feminine  or neuter,  singular  or plural,  as the  context may
require.  All terms defined in this  Agreement in their singular or plural forms
have  correlative  meanings when used herein in their plural or singular  forms,
respectively.

         Section  7.14  Facsimile  Signatures.  A  facsimile  signature  on this
Agreement or an original  signature  delivered by facsimile  shall be considered
the same as an original.
