                          SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT

      THIS SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made and entered
into as of May 27, 2004, by and between GVI SECURITY SOLUTIONS, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), and Laurus Master Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Islands
company (the "Purchaser").

                                    RECITALS

      WHEREAS, the Company has authorized the sale to the Purchaser of a
Convertible Term Note in the aggregate principal amount of Five Million Dollars
($5,000,000) (the "Note"), which Note is convertible into shares of the
Company's common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock") at an
initial fixed conversion price of $2.70 per share of Common Stock ("Fixed
Conversion Price");

      WHEREAS, the Company wishes to issue a warrant to the Purchaser to
purchase up to 940,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (subject to
adjustment as set forth therein) in connection with Purchaser's purchase of the
Note;

      WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to purchase the Note and the Warrant (as
defined in Section 2) on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

      WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue and sell the Note and Warrant to
Purchaser on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

                                    AGREEMENT

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual
promises, representations, warranties and covenants hereinafter set forth and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

      1. Agreement to Sell and Purchase. Pursuant to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3), the
Company agrees to sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser hereby agrees to
purchase from the Company, a Note in the aggregate principal amount of Five
Million Dollars ($5,000,000) convertible into shares of the Company's Common
Stock in accordance with the terms of the Note and this Agreement. The sale to
the Purchaser of the Note and Warrant on the Closing Date shall be known as the

      2. Fees and Warrant. On the Closing Date:

            (a) The Company will issue and deliver to the Purchaser a Warrant to
      purchase up to 940,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with the
      Offering (the "Warrant") pursuant to Section 1 hereof. The Warrant must be
      delivered on the Closing Date. A form of Warrant is annexed hereto as
      Exhibit B. All the representations, covenants, warranties, undertakings,
      and indemnification, and other rights made or granted to or for the
      benefit of the Purchaser by the Company are hereby also made and granted

      issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the "Warrant Shares").

      pay to Laurus Capital Management, LLC, the manager of the Purchaser, a
      closing payment in an amount equal to three and nine-tenths of one percent
      (3.90%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Note. The foregoing fee
      is referred to herein as the "Closing Payment."

            (c) The Company shall reimburse the Purchaser for its reasonable
      legal fees for services rendered to the Purchaser in preparation of this
      Agreement and the Related Agreements (as hereinafter defined), and
      expenses incurred in connection with the Purchaser's due diligence review
      of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined in Section 4.2) and all
      related matters. Amounts required to be paid under this Section 2(c) (the
      "Transaction Expenses") will be paid on the Closing Date and shall not
      exceed $52,500 for fees and for expenses incurred while performing due
      diligence inquiries on the Company and its Subsidiaries.

            (d) The Closing Payment and the Transaction Expenses (net of
      deposits previously paid by the Company) shall be paid at closing out of
      funds held pursuant to a Funds Escrow Agreement of even date herewith
      among the Company, Purchaser, and an Escrow Agent (the "Funds Escrow
      Agreement") and a disbursement letter (the "Disbursement Letter").

      3. Closing, Delivery and Payment.

            3.1 Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, the closing
of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Closing"), shall take place on the

attached hereto as Exhibit D, at the Closing on the Closing Date, the Company
will deliver to the Purchaser, among other things, a Note in the form attached
as Exhibit A in the principal amount of $5,000,000 and a Warrant in the form

940,000 Warrant Shares and the Purchaser will deliver to the Company, among
other things, the amounts set forth in the Disbursement Letter by certified

                                       2

            4.1 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. Each of the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership or limited
liability company, as the case may be, duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization. Each of the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, has the corporate power and
authority to own and operate its properties and assets, to execute and deliver
(i) this Agreement, (ii) the Note and the Warrant to be issued in connection
with this Agreement, (iii) the Master Security Agreement dated as of the date
hereof between the Company, certain Subsidiaries of the Company and the
Purchaser (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "Master
Security Agreement"), (iv) the Registration Rights Agreement relating to the
Securities dated as of the date hereof between the Company and the Purchaser,
(v) the Subsidiary Guaranty dated as of the date hereof made by certain
Subsidiaries of the Company (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to
time, the "Subsidiary Guaranty"), (vi) the Stock Pledge Agreement dated as of
the date hereof among the Company and the Purchaser (as amended, modified or
supplemented from time to time, the "Stock Pledge Agreement"), (vii) the Escrow
Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Company, the Purchaser and the
escrow agent referred to therein and (viii) all other agreements related to this
Agreement and the Note and referred to herein (the preceding clauses (ii)
through (viii), collectively, the "Related Agreements"), to issue and sell the
Note and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note (the
"Note Shares"), to issue and sell the Warrant and the Warrant Shares, and to
carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the Related Agreements and to
carry on its business as presently conducted. Each of the Company and each of
its Subsidiaries is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in
good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability
company, as the case may be, in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its
activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such
qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure to do
so has not, or could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a material adverse effect on the business, assets, liabilities,
condition (financial or otherwise), properties, operations or prospects of the
Company and it Subsidiaries, taken individually and as a whole (a "Material
Adverse Effect").

            4.2 Subsidiaries. Each direct and indirect Subsidiary of the
Company, the direct owner of such Subsidiary and its percentage ownership
thereof, is set forth on Schedule 4.2. For the purpose of this Agreement, a
"Subsidiary" of any person or entity means (i) a corporation or other entity
whose shares of stock or other ownership interests having ordinary voting power
(other than stock or other ownership interests having such power only by reason
of the happening of a contingency) to elect a majority of the directors of such
corporation, or other persons or entities performing similar functions for such
person or entity, are owned, directly or indirectly, by such person or entity or
(ii) a corporation or other entity in which such person or entity owns, directly
or indirectly, more than 50% of the equity interests at such time.

      4.3 Capitalization; Voting Rights.

            (a) The authorized capital stock of the Company, as of the date
      hereof consists of 78,000,000 shares, of which 75,000,000 are shares of
      Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, 29,603,750 shares of which are
      issued and outstanding, and 200 are shares of Series B Convertible
      Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, all of which are issued and
      outstanding. The authorized capital stock of each Subsidiary of the
      Company is set forth on Schedule 4.3.


                                       3

            (b) Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.3, other than: (i) the shares
      reserved for issuance under the Company's stock option plans; and (ii)
      shares which may be granted pursuant to this Agreement and the Related
      Agreements, there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights (including
      conversion or preemptive rights and rights of first refusal), proxy or
      stockholder agreements, or arrangements or agreements of any kind for the
      purchase or acquisition from the Company of any of its securities. Except
      as disclosed on Schedule 4.3, neither the offer, issuance or sale of any
      of the Note or the Warrant, or the issuance of any of the Note Shares or
      Warrant Shares, nor the consummation of any transaction contemplated
      hereby will result in a change in the price or number of any securities of
      the Company outstanding, under anti-dilution or other similar provisions
      contained in or affecting any such securities.

            (c) All issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock:
      (i) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
      nonassessable; and (ii) were issued in compliance with all applicable
      state and federal laws concerning the issuance of securities.

            (d) The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the
      shares of the Common Stock are as stated in the Company's Certificate of
      Incorporation (the "Charter"). The Note Shares and Warrant Shares have
      been duly and validly reserved for issuance. When issued in compliance
      with the provisions of this Agreement and the Company's Charter, the
      Securities will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will
      be free of any liens or encumbrances; provided, however, that the
      Securities may be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or
      federal securities laws as set forth herein or as otherwise required by
      such laws at the time a transfer is proposed.

            4.4 Authorization; Binding Obligations. All corporate, partnership
or limited liability company, as the case may be, action on the part of the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries (including the respective officers and
directors) necessary for the authorization of this Agreement and the Related
Agreements, the performance of all obligations of the Company and its
Subsidiaries hereunder and under the other Related Agreements at the Closing
and, the authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Note and Warrant has
been taken or will be taken prior to the Closing. This Agreement and the Related
Agreements, when executed and delivered and to the extent it is a party thereto,
will be valid and binding obligations of each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries, enforceable against each such person in accordance with their
terms, except:

            (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
      moratorium or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of
      creditors' rights; and

            (b) general principles of equity that restrict the availability of
      equitable or legal remedies.

The sale of the Note and the subsequent conversion of the Note into Note Shares
are not and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first
refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with. The issuance of the
Warrant and the subsequent exercise of the Warrant for Warrant Shares are not
and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that
have not been properly waived or complied with.

      restricting the development, manufacture or distribution of the Company's
      products or services; or (iv) indemnification by the Company with respect

      individual minimum dollar amounts of such subsections.

            4.7 Obligations to Related Parties. Except as set forth on Schedule
4.6 or Schedule 4.7, there are no obligations of the Company or any of its

Agreement and the Related Agreements to which it is a party, and the issuance

the business to be conducted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and to
the Company's knowledge the continued employment by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries of its present employees, and the performance of the Company's and

untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

            4.22 No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Subsidiaries or affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has
directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any
offers to buy any security under circumstances that would cause the offering of
the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements to be
integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities
Act which would prevent the Company from selling the Securities pursuant to Rule
506 under the Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder
approval provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates or
Subsidiaries take any action or steps that would cause the offering of the

understands and agrees that if at any time it is discovered that any of the
foregoing representations in this Section are incorrect, or if otherwise
required by applicable law or regulation related to money laundering similar
activities, the Purchaser may undertake appropriate actions to ensure compliance
with applicable law or regulation, including but not limited to segregation
and/or redemption of the Purchaser's investment in the Company. The Company
further understands that the Purchaser may release confidential information
about the Company and its Subsidiaries and, if applicable, any underlying
beneficial owners, to proper authorities if the Purchaser, in its sole
discretion, determines that it is in the best interests of the Purchaser in
light of relevant rules and regulations under the laws set forth in subsection
(ii) above.

      6. Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees with the
Purchaser as follows:

            6.1 Stop-Orders. The Company will advise the Purchaser, promptly
after it receives notice of issuance by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC"), any state securities commission or any other regulatory authority
of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending any offering of any

            6.3 Market Regulations. To the extent applicable, the Company shall
notify the SEC, NASD and applicable state authorities, in accordance with their
requirements, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall take
all other necessary action and proceedings as may be required and permitted by
applicable law, rule and regulation, for the legal and valid issuance of the
Securities to the Purchaser and promptly provide copies thereof to the
Purchaser.

            6.4 Reporting Requirements. The Company will timely file with the
SEC all reports required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act and refrain
from terminating its status as an issuer required by the Exchange Act to file
reports thereunder even if the Exchange Act or the rules or regulations
thereunder would permit such termination.

            6.5 Use of Funds. The Company agrees that it will use the proceeds
of the sale of the Note and the Warrant for general working capital purposes and
as otherwise set forth on Schedule 6.5.

            6.6 Access to Facilities. Each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries will permit any representatives designated by the Purchaser (or any
successor of the Purchaser), upon reasonable notice and during normal business
hours, at such person's expense and accompanied by a representative of the
Company, to:

            (a) visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company or any of
      its Subsidiaries;

            (b) examine the corporate and financial records of the Company or
      any of its Subsidiaries (unless such examination is not permitted by
      federal, state or local law or by contract) and make copies thereof or

            (c) discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company or any
      of its Subsidiaries with the directors, officers and independent
      accountants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
will provide any material, non-public information to the Purchaser unless the
Purchaser signs a confidentiality agreement and otherwise complies with
Regulation FD, under the federal securities laws.

            6.7 Taxes. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will
promptly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, when due and
payable, all lawful taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies
imposed upon the income, profits, property or business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment, charge or levy
need not be paid if the validity thereof shall currently be contested in good
faith by appropriate proceedings and if the Company and/or such Subsidiary shall
have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto, and
provided, further, that the Company and its Subsidiaries will pay all such
taxes, assessments, charges or levies forthwith upon the commencement of
proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have attached as security therefor.

            6.8 Insurance. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries will keep
its assets which are of an insurable character insured by financially sound and
reputable insurers against loss or damage by fire, explosion and other risks
customarily insured against by companies in similar business similarly situated
as the Company and its Subsidiaries; and the Company and its Subsidiaries will
maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance against other
hazards and risks and liability to persons and property to the extent and in the
manner which the Company reasonably believes is customary for companies in
similar business similarly situated as the Company and its Subsidiaries and to
the extent available on commercially reasonable terms. The Company, and each of
its Subsidiaries will jointly and severally bear the full risk of loss from any
loss of any nature whatsoever with respect to the assets pledged to the
Purchaser as security for its obligations hereunder and under the Related
Agreements. At the Company's and each of its Subsidiaries' joint and several
cost and expense in amounts and with carriers reasonably acceptable to
Purchaser, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries shall (i) keep all its
insurable properties and properties in which it has an interest insured against
the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended
coverage insurance and such other hazards, and for such amounts, as is customary
in the case of companies engaged in businesses similar to the Company's or the
respective Subsidiary's including business interruption insurance; (ii) maintain
a bond in such amounts as is customary in the case of companies engaged in
businesses similar to the Company's or the respective Subsidiary's insuring
against larceny, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of insured's
officers and employees who may either singly or jointly with others at any time
have access to the assets or funds of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
either directly or through governmental authority to draw upon such funds or to
direct generally the disposition of such assets; (iii) maintain public and
product liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death or
property damage suffered by others; (iv) maintain all such worker's compensation
or similar insurance as may be required under the laws of any state or
jurisdiction in which the Company or the respective Subsidiary is engaged in
business; and (v) furnish Purchaser with (x) copies of all policies and evidence
of the maintenance of such policies at least thirty (30) days before any
expiration date, (y) excepting the Company's workers' compensation policy,
endorsements to such policies naming Purchaser as "co-insured" or "additional
insured" and appropriate loss payable endorsements in form and substance
satisfactory to Purchaser, naming Purchaser as loss payee, and (z) evidence that
as to Purchaser the insurance coverage shall not be impaired or invalidated by
any act or neglect of the Company or any Subsidiary and the insurer will provide
Purchaser with at least thirty (30) days notice prior to cancellation. The
Company and each Subsidiary shall instruct the insurance carriers that in the
event of any loss thereunder, the carriers shall make payment for such loss to
the Company and/or the Subsidiary and Purchaser jointly. In the event that as of
the date of receipt of each loss recovery upon any such insurance, the Purchaser
has not declared an event of default with respect to this Agreement or any of
the Related Agreements, then the Company and/or such Subsidiary shall be
permitted to direct the application of such loss recovery proceeds toward
investment in property, plant and equipment that would comprise "Collateral"
secured by Purchaser's security interest pursuant to its security agreement. In
the event that Purchaser has properly declared an Event of Default with respect
to this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements, then all loss recoveries
received by Purchaser upon any such insurance thereafter may be applied to the
obligations of the Company hereunder and under the Related Agreements, in such
order as the Purchaser may determine. Any surplus (following satisfaction of all
Company obligations to Purchaser) shall be paid by Purchaser to the Company or
applied as may be otherwise required by law. Any deficiency thereon shall be
paid by the Company or the Subsidiary, as applicable, to Purchaser, on demand.

            6.9 Intellectual Property. Each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries shall maintain in full force and effect its existence, rights and
franchises and all licenses and other rights to use Intellectual Property owned
or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of its
business.

            6.10 Properties. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries
will keep its properties in good repair, working order and condition, reasonable
wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make all needful and proper
repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements thereto; and each of
the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will at all times comply with each
provision of all leases to which it is a party or under which it occupies
property if the breach of such provision could, either individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            6.11 Confidentiality. Other than in reports the Company may file
with the SEC, the Company agrees that it will not disclose, and will not include
in any public announcement, the name of the Purchaser, unless expressly agreed
to by the Purchaser or unless and until such disclosure is required by law or
applicable regulation, and then only to the extent of such requirement.

the terms of this Agreement to its current and prospective debt and equity
financing sources.

            (c) become subject to (including, without limitation, by way of
      amendment to or modification of) any agreement or instrument which by its
      terms would (under any circumstances) restrict the Company's or any of its
      Subsidiaries right to perform the provisions of this Agreement, any
      Related Agreement or any of the agreements contemplated hereby or thereby;

            (d) materially alter or change the scope of the business of the
      Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole;

            (e) (i) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any indebtedness
      for borrowed money (exclusive of trade debt and debt incurred to finance
      the purchase of equipment (not in excess of five percent (5%) per annum of
      the fair market value of the Company's assets)) whether secured or
      unsecured, other than (w) the Company's indebtedness to Purchaser, (x)
      debt subordinated to the Company's indebtedness to Purchaser, (y)
      indebtedness set forth on Schedule 6.12(e) attached hereto and made a part

      or replacements thereof on terms no less favorable to the Purchaser than

      to it in excess of $50,000 in the aggregate during any 12 month period;
      (iii) assume, guarantee, endorse or otherwise become directly or
      contingently liable in connection with any obligations of any other
      Person, except the endorsement of negotiable instruments by the Company
      for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course
      of business or guarantees of indebtedness otherwise permitted to be
      outstanding pursuant to this clause (e); and

            (f) create or acquire any Subsidiary after the date hereof unless
      (i) such Subsidiary is a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company and (ii)
      such Subsidiary becomes party to the Master Security Agreement and the
      Subsidiary Guaranty (either by executing a counterpart thereof or an
      assumption or joinder agreement in respect thereof) and, to the extent
      required by the Purchaser, satisfies each condition of this Agreement and
      the Related Agreements as if such Subsidiary were a Subsidiary on the
      Closing Date.

            6.13 Reissuance of Securities. The Company agrees to reissue

resales pursuant to Rule 144(d) and Rule 144(k) and provide legal opinions
necessary to allow such resales provided the Company and its counsel receive
reasonably requested representations from the selling Purchaser and broker, if
any.

Purchaser an opinion acceptable to the Purchaser from the Company's external

(and acceptable to the Purchaser) in connection with the issuance of Common
Stock upon conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrant.

            6.15 Margin Stock. The Company will not permit any of the proceeds
of the Note or the Warrant to be used directly or indirectly to "purchase" or

<PAGE>

            (a) Provided the Purchaser has notified the Company of the
      Purchaser's intention to sell the Note Shares and the Note Shares are
      included in an effective registration statement or are otherwise exempt
      from registration when sold: (i) upon the conversion of the Note or part
      thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all
      necessary action (including the issuance of an opinion of counsel
      reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser following a request by the
      Purchaser) to assure that the Company's transfer agent shall issue shares
      of the Company's Common Stock in the name of the Purchaser (or its
      nominee) or such other persons as designated by the Purchaser in
      accordance with Section 9.1(b) hereof and in such denominations to be
      specified representing the number of Note Shares issuable upon such
      conversion; and (ii) the Company warrants that no instructions other than
      these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the
      Company's Common Stock and that after the Effectiveness Date (as defined
      in the Registration Rights Agreement) the Note Shares issued will be
      freely transferable subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the
      Securities Act and the provisions of this Agreement, and will not contain
      a legend restricting the resale or transferability of the Note Shares.

            (b) Purchaser will give notice of its decision to exercise its right
      to convert the Note or part thereof by telecopying or otherwise delivering
      an executed and completed notice of the number of shares to be converted
      to the Company (the "Notice of Conversion") in accordance with the Note.
      The Purchaser will not be required to surrender the Note until the
      Purchaser receives either a certificate for the Note Shares or a credit to
      the account of the Purchaser's prime broker through the DWAC system (as
      defined in the Note), representing the Note Shares or until the Note has
      been fully satisfied.

Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in
connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a
rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by
applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to
be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum amount permitted by such
law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts
owed by the Company to a Purchaser and thus refunded to the Company.

      10. Registration Rights.

as the "Excepted Issuances"), neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
will issue any securities with a continuously variable/floating conversion
feature which are or could be (by conversion or registration) free-trading
securities (i.e. common stock subject to a registration statement) prior to the
full repayment or conversion of the Note (together with all accrued and unpaid
interest and fees related thereto).

or at such other address as the Company or the Purchaser may designate by
written notice to the other parties hereto given in accordance herewith.

            11.9 Attorneys' Fees. In the event that any suit or action is
instituted to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing party in
such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all fees, costs
and expenses of enforcing any right of such prevailing party under or with
respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation, such reasonable fees
and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include, without
limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.

            11.10 Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and
subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not
to be considered in construing this Agreement.

            11.11 Facsimile Signatures; Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed by facsimile signatures and in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one
instrument.

            11.12 Broker's Fees. Except as set forth on Schedule 11.12 hereof,
each party hereto represents and warrants that no agent, broker, investment
banker, person or firm acting on behalf of or under the authority of such party
hereto is or will be entitled to any broker's or finder's fee or any other
commission directly or indirectly in connection with the transactions
contemplated herein. Each party hereto further agrees to indemnify each other
party for any claims, losses or expenses incurred by such other party as a
result of the representation in this Section 11.12 being untrue.

            11.13 Construction. Each party acknowledges that its legal counsel
participated in the preparation of this Agreement and the Related Agreements
and, therefore, stipulates that the rule of construction that ambiguities are to
be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the
interpretation of this Agreement to favor any party against the other.
