pursuant to a Registration Statement or otherwise to sell any of the Securities
in compliance with the 1933 Act, the Lender is purchasing the Securities and
will be acquiring the Shares for its own account for investment only and not
with a view towards the public sale or distribution thereof and not with a view
to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof.

                  b. The Lender is (i) an "accredited investor" as that term is
defined in Rule 501 of the General Rules and Regulations under the 1933 Act by
reason of Rule 501(a)(3), (ii) experienced in making investments of the kind
described in this Agreement and the related documents, (iii) able, by reason of
the business and financial experience of its officers (if an entity) and
professional advisors (who are not affiliated with or compensated in any way by
the Company or any of its Affiliates or selling agents), to protect its own
interests in connection with the transactions described in this Agreement, and
the related documents, and (iv) able to afford the loss of the entire Purchase
Price.

                  c. All subsequent offers and sales of the Securities by the
Lender shall be made pursuant to registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act
or pursuant to an exemption from registration.

                  d. The Lender understands that the Securities are being
offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act and state securities laws and that the Company is
relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Lender's compliance with, the
representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of
the Lender set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such
exemptions and the eligibility of the Lender to acquire the Securities.

                  e. The Lender and its advisors, if any, have been furnished
with or have been given access to all materials relating to the business,
finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and
sale of the Securities and the offer of the Shares which have been requested by
the Lender, including those set forth on ANNEX V hereto. The Lender and its
advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the
Company and have received complete and satisfactory answers to any such
inquiries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lender has also
had the opportunity to obtain and to review the Company's filings on EDGAR
listed on ANNEX VII hereto (the documents listed on such Annex VII, to the
extent available on EDGAR or otherwise provided to the Lender as indicated on
said Annex VII, collectively, the "Company's SEC Documents").

with their respective terms, subject as to enforceability to general principles
of equity and to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

                  j. The Lender has taken no action which would give rise to any
claim by any Person for brokerage commission, finder's fees or similar payments
by the Company relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Company shall have no obligation with respect to such fees or with
respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type
contemplated in this paragraph that may be due in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby. The Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless
each of the Company, its employees, officers, directors, agents, and partners,

Debentures or upon exercise of the Warrants, each in accordance with its
respective terms, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
and, except to the extent, if any, provided by the law of the State of
Incorporation, will not subject the Holder thereof to personal liability by
reason of being such Holder.

its knowledge, any existing applicable law, rule, or regulation or any

                                       8

affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority or ability of the
Company to perform its obligations under, any of the Transaction Agreements. The

Company's SEC Documents, no Event of Default (or its equivalent term), as
defined in the respective agreement to which the Company is a party, and no
event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would

                           (ii)     engaging in any type of business practice;
                                    or

                           (iii)    engaging in any activity in connection with
                                    the purchase or sale of any security or
                                    commodity or in connection with any
                                    violation of federal or state securities
                                    laws or federal commodities laws;

                  (4) Such Company Control Person was the subject of any order,
         judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of
         any federal or state authority barring, suspending or otherwise
         limiting for more than 60 days the right of such Company Control Person
         to engage in any activity described in paragraph (3) of this item, or
         to be associated with Persons engaged in any such activity; or

                  (5) Such Company Control Person was found by a court of
         competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the CFTC or SEC to have
         violated any federal or state securities law, and the judgment in such
         civil action or finding by the CFTC or SEC has not been subsequently
         reversed, suspended, or vacated.

                  m. PRIOR ISSUES. [Intentionally Omitted]

                  n. NO UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES OR EVENTS. To the knowledge of
the Company, the Company has no liabilities or obligations other than those
disclosed in the Transaction Agreements or the Company's SEC Documents, those
pursuant to $300,000 in Debentures or those incurred in the ordinary course of
the Company's business since the Last Audited Date, or which individually or in
the aggregate, do not or would not have a Material Adverse Effect. No event or
circumstances has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its
properties, business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or results
of operations, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public
disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by the Company but which has
not been so publicly announced or disclosed. Except as disclosed in the
Company's SEC Documents, there are no proposals currently under consideration or
currently anticipated to be under consideration by the Board of Directors or the
executive officers of the Company which proposal would (X) change the
certificate of incorporation or other charter document or by-laws of the
Company, each as currently in effect, with or without shareholder approval,
which change would reduce or otherwise adversely affect the rights and powers of
the shareholders of the Common Stock or (Y) materially or substantially change
the business, assets or capital of the Company, including its interests in
subsidiaries.

                  o. NO INTEGRATED OFFERING. Neither the Company nor any of its
Affiliates nor any person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or
indirectly, at any time within the past six months made any offer or sales of
any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances
that would eliminate the availability of the exemption from registration under
Regulation D in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities as
contemplated hereby.

                                       10
<PAGE>

                  p. DILUTION. The number of Shares issuable upon conversion of
the Debentures may have a dilutive effect on the ownership interests of the
other shareholders (and Persons having the right to become shareholders) of the
Company. The Company's executive officers and directors have studied and fully
understand the nature of the Securities being sold hereby and recognize that
they have such a potential dilutive effect. The board of directors of the
Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment that such issuance is
in the best interests of the Company. The Company specifically acknowledges that
its obligation to issue the Shares upon conversion of the Debentures and upon
exercise of the Warrants is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless
of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other
shareholders of the Company, and the Company will honor every Notice of
Conversion (as defined in the Debentures) relating to the conversion of the
Debentures, and every Notice of Exercise (as contemplated by the Warrants),
unless the Company is subject to an injunction (which injunction was not sought
by the Company) prohibiting the Company from doing so.

                  r. TRADING IN SECURITIES. The Company specifically
acknowledges that, except to the extent specifically provided herein or in any
of the other Transaction Agreements (but limited in each instance to the extent
so specified), the Lender retains the right (but are not otherwise obligated) to
buy, sell, engage in hedging transactions or otherwise trade in the securities
of the Company, including, but not necessarily limited to, the Securities, at
any time before, contemporaneous with or after the execution of this Agreement
or from time to time, but only, in each case, in any manner whatsoever permitted
by applicable federal and state securities laws.

                  s. FEES TO BROKERS, FINDERS AND OTHERS. Except for payment of
fees to Persons previously disclosed to the Lender, payment of which is the sole
responsibility of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the
Company has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any Person for
brokerage commission, finder's fees or similar payments by the Lender relating
to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Lender shall have
no obligation with respect to such fees or with respect to any claims made by or
on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this paragraph
that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. The
Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Lender, its employees,
officers, directors, agents, and partners, and their respective Affiliates, from
and against all claims, losses, damages, costs (including the costs of
preparation and attorney's fees) and expenses suffered in respect of any such
claimed or existing fees, as and when incurred.

                  4. CERTAIN COVENANTS AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.

                  a. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. The Lender acknowledges that (1) the
Securities have not been and are not being registered under the provisions of
the 1933 Act and, except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement or
otherwise included in an effective registration statement, the Shares have not
been and are not being registered under the 1933 Act, and may not be transferred
unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder or (B) the Lender shall have
delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form,


                                       11
<PAGE>

scope and substance to the Company, to the effect that the Securities to be sold
or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such
registration; (2) any sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act may be made only in accordance with the terms of
said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of such
Securities under circumstances in which the seller, or the Person through whom
the sale is made, may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is used in
the 1933 Act, may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933
Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (3) neither the
Company nor any other Person is under any obligation to register the Securities
(other than pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement) under the 1933 Act or
to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder.

                  b. RESTRICTIVE LEGEND. The Lender acknowledges and agrees
that, until such time as the Common Stock has been registered under the 1933 Act
and sold in accordance with an effective Registration Statement or otherwise in
accordance with another effective registration statement, the certificates and
other instruments representing any of the Securities (including the Shares)
shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a
stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of any such Securities):

     THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
     AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
     OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR
     THE SECURITIES OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE ACCEPTABLE TO THE
     COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

                  c. FILINGS. The Company undertakes and agrees to make all
necessary filings required to be made by the Company in connection with the sale
of the Debentures and Warrants to the Lender under any United States laws and
regulations applicable to the Company, or by any domestic securities exchange or
trading market, and to provide a copy thereof to the Lender promptly after such
filing.

                  d. REPORTING STATUS. So long as the Lender beneficially owns
any of the Securities, the Company shall file all reports required to be filed
with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act in a time frame
that permits it to maintain the continued quotation and trading of its Common
Stock (including, without limitation, all Registrable Securities) on the
Principal Trading Market or a listing on the NASDAQ/Small Cap or National
Markets and, to the extent applicable to it, shall take all reasonable action
under its control to ensure that adequate current public information with
respect to the Company, as required in accordance with Rule 144(c)(2) of the
1933 Act, is publicly available, and shall not terminate its status as an issuer
required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules
and regulations thereunder would permit such termination. The Company will take
all reasonable action under its control to maintain the continued quotation and
trading of its Common Stock (including, without limitation, all Registrable
Securities) on the Principal Trading Market or a listing on the NASDAQ/Small Cap


                                       12
<PAGE>

or National Markets and, to the extent applicable to it, will comply in all
material respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations
under the by-laws or rules of the Principal Trading Market and/or the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., as the case may be, at least through
the date which is thirty (30) days after the later of the date on which all of
the Debentures have been converted or all of the Warrants have been exercised or
have expired.

                  e. USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company will use the proceeds received
hereunder (excluding amounts paid by the Company for legal fees, finder's fees
and escrow fees in connection with the sale of the Securities) for general
corporate purposes.

                  f. WARRANTS. The Company agrees to issue to the Lender on the
Closing Date transferable divisible warrants (the "Warrants") for the purchase
of 2,857,143 Shares at an exercise price of $.10. The Warrants will expire on
the second annual anniversary of the Effective Date. The Warrant shall be in the
form annexed hereto as ANNEX VI.

                  g. AVAILABLE SHARES. The Company shall have at all times
authorized and reserved for issuance, free from preemptive rights, a number of
shares at least equal to the sum of (x) one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable as may be required to satisfy the
conversion rights of the Holders of all outstanding Convertible Debentures
(including interest thereon), plus (y) the number of shares issuable upon
exercise of all outstanding Warrants held by all Holders (in each case, whether
such Convertible Debentures or Warrants were originally issued to the Holder,
the Lender or to any other Holder). For the purposes of such calculations, the
Company should assume that all such Debentures were then convertible and all
Warrants were then exercisable without regard to any restrictions which might
limit the Lender's right to convert any of the Convertible Debentures or
exercise any of the Warrants held by any Holder.

                  h. PUBLICITY, FILINGS, RELEASES, ETC. Each of the parties
agrees that it will not disseminate any information relating to the Transaction
Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby, including issuing any press
releases, holding any press conferences or other forums, or filing any reports
(collectively, "Publicity"), without giving the other party reasonable advance
notice and an opportunity to comment on the contents thereof. Neither party will
include in any such Publicity any statement or statements or other material to
which the other party reasonably objects, unless the inclusion of such statement
is required, in the opinion of legal counsel for such party, in order for such
party to comply with its disclosure obligations under applicable law. In
furtherance of the foregoing, the Company will provide to the Lender drafts of
the applicable text of any filing intended to be made with the SEC which refers
to the Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby as soon
as practicable (but at least two (2) business days before such filing will be
made) and will not include in such filing any statement or statements or other
material to which the other party reasonably objects , unless the inclusion of
such statement is required, in the opinion of legal counsel for such party, in
order for such party to comply with its disclosure obligations under applicable
law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereby consents to the
inclusion of the text of the Transaction Agreements in filings made with the SEC
(but any descriptive text accompanying or part of such filing shall be subject
to the other provisions of this paragraph). Notwithstanding, but subject to, the
foregoing, the Company intends to file within four business days following the
Closing Date a Current Report on Form 8-K referring to the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

                                       13
<PAGE>

                  i. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS. The Lender agrees that as long as it
or any of its Affiliates holds any Securities it shall not, and the Lender shall
cause it Affiliates not to, hold any short sale position or any hedging position
with respect to any Company Securities in excess of $25,000; provided that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender or such Affiliates may enter into any
such short position or hedging position (i) prior to the Effective Date, at any
time during any period that that the bid price for the Common Stock as reported
by the Reporting Service is equal to or greater than $0.25 (and the Lender or
such Affiliate shall be entitled to hold such short position or hedging position
entered into pursuant to this clause (i) even if the bid price for the Common
Stock declines to less than $0.25) and (ii) in connection with a conversion
under the Debenture or an exercise of the Warrants. The Lender agrees that it
shall not transfer any Securities unless the transferee thereof explicitly
agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof, except in connection with
transfers of Shares that are not Registrable Securities. The Company agrees that
unless and until (i) the Company has affirmatively demonstrated by the use of
specific clear and convincing evidence that the Lender has traded in securities
of the Company in violation of applicable federal securities laws and (ii) there
has been issued against the Lender a final non-appealable decision from a court
of competent jurisdiction to the effect that the Lender has violated applicable
federal securities laws with respect to its trading of the Company's securities,
the Lender shall be assumed to be in compliance with such laws and the Company
shall remain obligated to fulfill all of its obligations under each of the
Transaction Agreements; provided, further, that the Company shall under no
circumstances be entitled to request or demand that the Lender affirmatively
demonstrate that it has not engaged in any such violations as a condition to the
Company's fulfillment of its obligations under any of the Transaction Agreements
and shall not assert, whether as an affirmative claim or a defense to any claim
made against the Company, that the Lender's failure to demonstrate such absence
of such violations (including, but not limited to, its failure to provide any
trading or other records, it being specifically agreed that the Company,
directly or indirectly, will request the Lender or any of its agents, advisors,
brokers or representatives to provide such records in any forum) serves either
as a defense to any breach of the Company's obligations under any of the
Transaction Agreements or otherwise reflects adversely in any manner on the
legality of any action taken by the Lender.

                  j. CERTAIN AGREEMENTS.

                  (i) (A) The term "Lower Price Transaction" means a New
         Transaction consummated during the period (the "New Transaction
         Period") from the Closing Date and continuing through and including the
         Final Lock-up Date (as defined below), where (x) either the lowest
         fixed purchase price of any shares of Common Stock contemplated in the
         New Transaction or the lowest fixed conversion price of any securities
         of the Company convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock which
         would be applicable under the terms of the New Transaction is, or by
         its terms is, below the Fixed Conversion Price or (y) if such purchase
         price or conversion price is determined by multiplying a market price
         of the Common Stock by a percentage, such percentage is below the
         Variable Conversion Rate (the "Lower Percentage").

                                       14
<PAGE>

                  (B) The term "Final Lock-up Date" means the date which is the
         number of days after the Effective Date equal to the sum of (X) ninety
         (90) days, plus (Y) the number of days, if any, during which sale of
         Registrable Securities was suspended after the Effective Date.

                  (ii) The Company covenants and agrees that, if there is a
Lower Price Transaction during the New Transaction Period, then;

                  (A) if such transaction is of the type contemplated by Section
         4(j)(i)(A)(x), then the Fixed Conversion Price on any principal amount
         of the Debentures which has not been converted as of the relevant date
         shall be adjusted to an amount (the "Adjusted Conversion Price") equal
         to the lower of (1) the lowest fixed purchase price of any shares of
         the Common Stock contemplated in the Lower Price Transaction or (2) the
         lowest fixed conversion price of any securities of the Company
         convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock which would be applicable
         under the terms of the Lower Price Transaction;

                  (B) if such transaction is of the type contemplated by Section
         4(j)(ii)(A)(y), then the Variable Conversion Rate on any principal
         amount of the Debentures which has not been converted as of the
         relevant date shall be adjusted to an amount equal to the Lower
         Percentage; and

                  (C) the exercise price on all unexercised Warrants (unless the
         Adjusted Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants) is then in effect)
         shall be adjusted to equal the lowest of (1) the then existing
         applicable exercise price of such Warrant, and (2) 143% of the Adjusted
         Conversion Price.

                  (iii) For purposes of this Section 4(j), the conversion price
for which each share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be issued upon issuance
or sale of any securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Common
Stock shall be determined by dividing (x) the total consideration, if any,
received by the Company as consideration for such securities plus the minimum
aggregate of additional consideration, if any, ever payable to the Company upon
the conversion, exercise or exchange of such securities by (y) the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock ever issuable (except pursuant to anti-dilution
provisions associated with such securities on account of events that are unknown
on such date) upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such securities.

                  5.       TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

                  (a) The Company warrants that, with respect to the Securities,
other than the stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 4(a) hereof,
it will give its transfer agent no instructions inconsistent with instructions
to issue Common Stock from time to time upon conversion of the Debentures in
such amounts as specified from time to time by the Company to the transfer


                                       15
<PAGE>

agent, bearing the restrictive legend specified in Section 4(b) of this
Agreement prior to registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act, registered in
the name of the Lender or its nominee and in such denominations to be specified
by the Lender in connection with each conversion of the Debentures. Except as so
provided, the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and
records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way
the Lender's obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities
laws upon resale of the Securities. If the Lender provides the Company with an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that registration of a
resale by the Lender of any of the Securities in accordance with clause (1)(B)
of Section 4(a) of this Agreement is not required under the 1933 Act, the
Company shall (except as provided in clause (2) of Section 4(a) of this
Agreement) permit the transfer of the Securities and, in the case of the
Conversion Shares, promptly instruct the Company's transfer agent to issue one
or more certificates for Common Stock without legend in such name and in such
denominations as specified by the Lender.

                  (b) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Company
will permit the Lender to exercise its right to convert the Debentures in the
manner contemplated by the Debentures and to exercise the Warrants in the manner
contemplated by the Warrants.

                  c. (i) The Company understands that a delay in the issuance of
the Shares beyond the Delivery Date (as defined in the Debenture) could result
in economic loss to the Lender. As compensation to the Lender for such loss, the
Company agrees to pay late payments to the Lender for late issuance of Shares
upon conversion in accordance with the following schedule (where "No. Business
Days Late" refers to the number of Trading Days which is beyond four (4) Trading
Days after the Delivery Date): (9)(91)



-----------------
1 Example: Notice of Conversion is delivered on Monday, March 6, 2006. The
Delivery Date would be Thursday March 9 (the third Trading Day after such
delivery). If the certificate is delivered by Wednesday, March 15 (4 Trading
Days after the Delivery Date), no payment under this provision is due. If the
certificates are delivered on March 16, that is 1 "Business Day Late" in the
table below; if delivered on March 21, that is 4 "Business Days Late" in the
table.

                                                   beyond 10 days

The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately
available funds upon demand as the Lender's exclusive remedy (other than the
following provisions of this Section 5(c), the provisions of the immediately
following Section 5(d) of this Agreement and Section 12(c) of the Debenture) for
such delay. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be
available to the Lender, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to
effect delivery of such shares of Common Stock by close of business on the
Delivery Date, the Lender will be entitled to revoke the relevant Notice of
Conversion by delivering a notice to such effect to the Company, whereupon the
Company and the Lender shall each be restored to their respective positions
immediately prior to delivery of such Notice of Conversion; provided, however,
that an amount equal to any payments contemplated by this Section 5(c) which
have accrued through the date of such revocation notice shall remain due and
owing to the Converting Holder (as defined below) notwithstanding such
revocation. Anything in the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (c) to the
contrary notwithstanding, the total amount payable by the Company under this
paragraph (c) shall be reduced by an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of any
Buy-In Adjustment Amount (as defined below) actually paid by the Company to the
Holder (but not by more than the total amount due without regard to the
provisions of this sentence).

                  (d) If, by the relevant Delivery Date the Company fails for
any reason to deliver the Shares to be issued upon conversion of a Debenture and
after such Delivery Date, the Holder of the Debentures being converted (a
"Converting Holder") purchases, in an arm's-length open market transaction or
otherwise, shares of Common Stock (the "Covering Shares") in order to make
delivery in satisfaction of a sale of Common Stock by the Converting Holder (the
"Sold Shares"), which delivery such Converting Holder anticipated to make using
the Shares to be issued upon such conversion (a "Buy-In"), the Converting Holder
shall have the right, to require the Company to pay to the Converting Holder, in
addition to and not in lieu of the amounts due under Section 5(c) hereof (but in
addition to all other amounts contemplated in other provisions of the


                                       17
<PAGE>

Transaction Agreements, and not in lieu of any such other amounts), the Buy-In
Adjustment Amount (as defined below). The "Buy-In Adjustment Amount" is the
amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Converting Holder's total
purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Covering Shares
over (y) the net proceeds (after brokerage commissions, if any) received by the
Converting Holder from the sale of the Sold Shares. The Company shall pay the
Buy-In Adjustment Amount to the Company in immediately available funds
immediately upon demand by the Converting Holder. By way of illustration and not
in limitation of the foregoing, if the Converting Holder purchases shares of
Common Stock having a total purchase price (including brokerage commissions) of
$11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to shares of Common Stock it sold for net
proceeds of $10,000, the Buy-In Adjustment Amount which Company will be required
to pay to the Converting Holder will be $1,000.

                  (e) In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing
the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Company's transfer agent
is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated
Securities Transfer program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with
the provisions contained in this paragraph, so long as the certificates therefor
do not bear a legend and the Holder thereof is not obligated to return such
certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall use its
best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common
Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of
Holder's Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission
system.

                  (f) The holder of any Debentures shall be entitled to exercise
its conversion privilege with respect to the Debentures notwithstanding the
commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C. ss.101 ET SEQ. (the "Bankruptcy Code").
In the event the Company is a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company
hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any rights to relief it may have
under 11 U.S.C. ss.362 in respect of such holder's conversion privilege. The
Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any rights to relief it
may have under 11 U.S.C. ss.362 in respect of the conversion of the Debentures.
The Company agrees, without cost or expense to such holder, to take or to
consent to any and all action necessary to effectuate relief under 11 U.S.C.
ss.362.

                  (g) The Company will authorize its transfer agent to give
information relating to the Company directly to the Lender or the Lender's
representatives upon the request of the Lender or any such representative, to
the extent such information relates to (i) the status of shares of Common Stock
issued or claimed to be issued to the Lender in connection with a Notice of
Conversion or exercise of a Warrant, or (ii) the number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock of all shareholders as of a current or other specified date. On the
Closing Date, the Company will provide the Lender with a copy of the
authorization so given to the transfer agent.

                  6.       CLOSING DATE.

                  a. The closing date (the "Closing Date") shall occur on the
date which is the first Trading Day after each of the conditions contemplated by
Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall have either been satisfied or been waived by the
party in whose favor such conditions run.

                                       18
<PAGE>

                  Each closing of the purchase and issuance of Debentures and
Warrants shall occur on the relevant Closing Date at the offices of the Escrow
Agent and shall take place no later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on such day
or such other time as is mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Lender.

                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Escrow Agent will be authorized to release the relevant Escrow Funds to the
Company and to release the other relevant Escrow Property on the relevant
Closing Date upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 7 and 8
hereof and as provided in the Joint Escrow Instructions.

                  7.       CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO SELL.

                  The Lender understands that the Company's obligation to sell
the Debentures and the Warrants to the Lender pursuant to this Agreement on the
relevant Closing Date is conditioned upon:

                  The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement by the Lender;

                  Delivery by the Lender to the Escrow Agent of good funds as
payment in full of an amount equal to the Purchase Price for the Securities in
accordance with this Agreement;

                  The accuracy on such Closing Date of the representations and
warranties of the Lender contained in this Agreement, each as if made on such
date, and the performance by the Lender on or before such date of all covenants
and agreements of the Lender required to be performed on or before such date;
and

                  There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation
prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated hereby, or requiring
any consent or approval which shall not have been obtained.

                  8.       CONDITIONS TO THE LENDER'S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE.

                  The Company understands that the Lender's obligation to
purchase the Debentures and the Warrants on the relevant Closing Date is
conditioned upon:

                  The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other
Transaction Agreements by the Company;

                  Delivery by the Company to the Escrow Agent of the
Certificates in accordance with this Agreement;

                  On the Closing Date, the Lender shall have received a
Secretary's Certificate and Officer's Certificate from the Company, dated the
Closing Date in form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lender,
substantially to the effect set forth in ANNEX III attached hereto;

                                       19
<PAGE>

                  The accuracy in all material respects on such Closing Date of
the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement,
each as if made on such date, and the performance by the Company on or before
such date of all covenants and agreements of the Company required to be
performed on or before such date;

                  There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation
prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated hereby, or requiring
any consent or approval which shall not have been obtained; and

                  From and after the date hereof to and including such Closing
Date, each of the following conditions will remain in effect: (i) the trading of
the Common Stock shall not have been suspended by the SEC or on the Principal
Trading Market; (ii) trading in securities generally on the Principal Trading
Market shall not have been suspended or limited; (iii), no minimum prices shall
been established for securities traded on the Principal Trading Market; and (iv)
there shall not have been any material adverse change in any financial market
that, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender, makes it impracticable or
inadvisable to purchase the Debentures.


                  9.       INDEMNIFICATION.

                  a. (i) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Lender and its officers, directors, employees, and agents, and each Lender
Control Person from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses incurred (collectively, "Damages"), joint or several, and any action in
respect thereof to which the Lender, its partners, Affiliates, officers,
directors, employees, and duly authorized agents, and any such Lender Control
Person becomes subject to, resulting from, arising out of or relating to any
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment of or failure to perform
any covenant or agreement on the part of Company contained in this Agreement, as
such Damages are incurred, except to the extent such Damages result primarily
from the Lender's failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this
Agreement or the Lender's or its officers, directors, employees, agents or
Lender Control Persons negligence, recklessness or bad faith in performing its
obligations under this Agreement.

                  (ii) If (x) the Lender becomes involved in any capacity in any
action, proceeding or investigation brought by any stockholder of the Company,
in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements (other than
the Registration Rights Agreement), or if the Lender is impleaded in any such
action, proceeding or investigation by any Person, or (y) the Lender becomes
involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation brought by
the SEC, any self-regulatory organization or other body having jurisdiction,
against or involving the Company or in connection with or as a result of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other
Transaction Agreements (other than the Registration Rights Agreement), or if the
Lender is impleaded in any such action, proceeding or investigation by any
Person, then in any such case, other than by reason of the Lender's actions


                                       20
<PAGE>

(other than the Lender's execution of the Transaction Agreements to which it is
a signatory, the payment of the Purchase Price, and/or the exercise of any of
the Lender's rights under any one or more of the Transaction Agreements), the
Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lender from and
against and in respect of all Damages resulting from, imposed upon or incurred
by the Lender, directly or indirectly, and reimburse the Lender for its
reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and
preparation) for a single firm of counsel incurred in connection therewith, as
such expenses are incurred. The indemnification and reimbursement obligations of
the Company under this paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the
Company may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to
any Affiliates of the Lender who are actually named in such action, proceeding
or investigation, and partners, directors, agents, employees and Lender Control
Persons (if any), as the case may be, of the Lender and any such Affiliate, and
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs
and personal representatives of the Company, the Lender, any such Affiliate and
any such Person. The Company also agrees that neither the Lender nor any such
Affiliate, partner, director, agent, employee or Lender Control Person shall
have any liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or
in right of the Company in connection with or as a result of the consummation of
this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, other than by reason of the
Lender's actions (other than the Lender's execution of the Transaction
Agreements to which it is a signatory, the payment of the Purchase Price, and/or
the exercise of the Lender's rights under any one or more of the Transaction
Agreements).

                  b. All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party (as
defined below) under this Section 9 shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

                  (i) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which any
Person claiming indemnification under any provision of this Section 9 (an
"Indemnified Party") might seek indemnity under Section 9(a) is asserted against
or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a Person other than a
party hereto or an Affiliate thereof (a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnified
Party shall deliver a written notification, enclosing a copy of all papers
served, if any, and specifying the nature of and basis for such Third Party
Claim and for the Indemnified Party's claim for indemnification that is being
asserted under any provision of this Section 9 against any Person (the
"Indemnifying Party"), together with the amount or, if not then reasonably
ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such Third
Party Claim (a "Claim Notice") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying
Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice with
reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third
Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the
Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party's ability to defend has been prejudiced by such failure of
the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party
as soon as practicable within the period ending thirty (30) calendar days
following receipt by the Indemnifying Party of either a Claim Notice or an
Indemnity Notice (as defined below) (the "Dispute Period") whether the
Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the
Indemnified Party under this Section 9 and whether the Indemnifying Party
desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against
such Third Party Claim. The following provisions shall also apply.

                                       21
<PAGE>

         (x) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the
         Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the
         Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim pursuant to
         this Section 9(b), then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to
         defend, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party,
         at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third
         Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be
         vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a
         final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the
         Indemnifying Party (but only with the consent of the Indemnified Party
         in the case of any settlement that provides for any relief other than
         the payment of monetary damages or that provides for the payment of
         monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party shall not be
         indemnified in full pursuant to Section 9(a)). The Indemnifying Party
         shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any
         compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that the
         Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified
         Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party's delivery of the
         notice referred to in the first sentence of this subparagraph (x), file
         any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the
         Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to
         protect its interests; and provided further, that if requested by the
         Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and
         expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to
         the Indemnifying Party in contesting any Third Party Claim that the
         Indemnifying Party elects to contest. The Indemnified Party may
         participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third
         Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this
         subparagraph (x), and except as provided in the preceding sentence, the
         Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to
         such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified
         Party may take over the control of the defense or settlement of a Third
         Party Claim at any time if it irrevocably waives its right to indemnity
         under Section 9(a) with respect to such Third Party Claim.

         (y) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party
         within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend
         the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9(b), or if the Indemnifying
         Party gives such notice but fails to prosecute vigorously and
         diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying
         Party fails to give any notice whatsoever within the Dispute Period,
         then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole
         cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by
         all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted by
         the Indemnified Party in a reasonable manner and in good faith or will
         be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party (with the consent
         of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably


                                       22
<PAGE>

         withheld). The Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense
         and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof;
         provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the
         Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the
         Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified
         Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the
         Indemnified Party is contesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing
         provisions of this subparagraph (y), if the Indemnifying Party has
         notified the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the
         Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its
         liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third
         Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the
         Indemnifying Party in the manner provided in subparagraph (z) below,
         the Indemnifying Party will not be required to bear the costs and
         expenses of the Indemnified Party's defense pursuant to this
         subparagraph (y) or of the Indemnifying Party's participation therein
         at the Indemnified Party's request, and the Indemnified Party shall
         reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all reasonable costs and
         expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such
         litigation. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control,
         any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant
         to this subparagraph (y), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own
         costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

         (z) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it
         does not dispute its liability or the amount of its liability to the
         Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim under Section
         9(a) or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period
         whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of
         its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party
         Claim, the amount of Damages specified in the Claim Notice shall be
         conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section
         9(a) and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to
         the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely
         disputed its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to
         such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall
         proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute;
         provided, however, that if the dispute is not resolved within thirty
         (30) days after the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be
         entitled to institute such legal action as it deems appropriate.

                  (ii) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim
under Section 9(a) against the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third
Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification of a
claim for indemnity under Section 9(a) specifying the nature of and basis for
such claim, together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable,
the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such claim (an "Indemnity
Notice") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by
any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such party's
rights hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates
that it has been irreparably prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party
notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim or the amount
of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the
Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party


                                       23
<PAGE>

disputes the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity
Notice, the amount of Damages specified in the Indemnity Notice will be
conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 9(a) and
the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified
Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or
the amount of its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution
of such dispute; provided, however, that if the dispute is not resolved within
thirty (30) days after the Indemnity Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be
entitled to institute such legal action as it deems appropriate.

                  The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition
to (i) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against
the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying
party may be subject to.

                  10. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. The Company and the Lender hereby waive
a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of
the Parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising out or in
connection with the Transaction Agreements.

                  11. GOVERNING LAW: MISCELLANEOUS.

                  This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York for contracts to be wholly
performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof
regarding the conflict of laws. Each of the parties consents to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the federal courts whose districts encompass any part of the
City of New York or the state courts of the State of New York sitting in the
City of New York in connection with any dispute arising under this Agreement or
any of the other Transaction Agreements and hereby waives, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, any objection, including any objection based on FORUM NON
CONVENIENS, to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions. To the
extent determined by such court, the Company shall reimburse the Lender for any
reasonable legal fees and disbursements incurred by the Lender in enforcement of
or protection of any of its rights under any of the Transaction Agreements.

                  Failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under
this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a party in exercising such right or
remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

                  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto.

                  All pronouns and any variations thereof refer to the
masculine, feminine or neuter, singular or plural, as the context may require.

                  A facsimile transmission of this signed Agreement shall be
legal and binding on all parties hereto.

                  This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original.

                                       24
<PAGE>

                  The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of
reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this
Agreement.

                  If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement or the
validity or enforceability of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

                  This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing
signed by the party to be charged with enforcement thereof.

                  This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof.

                  12. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall
