in good  standing as a foreign  corporation  in all  jurisdictions  in which the

          4.2  Subsidiaries.  Except as disclosed  on Schedule  4.2, the Company
does not own or  control  any equity  security  or other  interest  of any other
corporation,  limited  partnership  or other business  entity.  If any entity is
listed on Schedule  4.2.  and the Company  owns a  controlling  interest in such
entity,  each of the  representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4
are being hereby  restated with respect to such entity  (modified as appropriate
to the nature of such entity.)

          4.3 Capitalization; Voting Rights.

               (a) The  authorized  capital  stock of the  Company,  immediately
prior to the Closing,  consists of (i) 150,000,000  shares of Common Stock,  par
value $0.001 per share,  65,892,158  shares of which are issued and outstanding,
and (ii) 10,000,000  shares of Preferred  Stock,  par value $0.001 per share, no
shares of which are issued and outstanding.

               (b) Other than (i) the shares  reserved  for  issuance  under the
Company's  Stock Option Plan; and (iii) 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.
Neither  the offer,  issuance  or sale of any of the Notes or  Warrants,  or the
issuance of any of the Conversion 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 and Preferred  Stock (to the extent  Preferred  Stock has been issued) (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 Preferred  Stock and the Common Stock are as stated in the Articles of
Incorporation  (the  "Charter").  The Conversion  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 Notes,  Warrants,
Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares (sometimes  collectively referred to herein
as 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.

               (e)  No  stock  plan,  stock  purchase,  stock  option  or  other
agreement  or  understanding  between  the  Company and any holder of any equity
securities or rights to purchase equity securities  provides for acceleration or
other  changes in the vesting  provisions  or other terms of such  agreement  or
understanding as the result of any merger, consolidated sale of stock or assets,
change in control or any other  transaction(s)  by the  Company,  including  the
transactions contemplated hereunder.

               (f) The  provisions of NSR 78.378 to 78.3793,  inclusive,  of the
Nevada Revised  Statutes,  do not apply to the purchase of any Securities by the
Purchasers, or to, or as a result of, any of the matters or actions contemplated
in this  Agreement  or in any of the Related  Agreements.  The Company is not an
"issuing  corporation"  as such term is  defined  in NRS  78.3788  of the Nevada

binding  obligations of the Company  enforceable in accordance with their terms,
except (a) as  limited by  applicable  bankruptcy,  insolvency,


                                      -3-
<PAGE>

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  remedies.  The sale of the Notes and the
subsequent  conversion of the Notes into Conversion  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  sale of the  Warrants  and the
subsequent  exercise of the Warrants 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. The Notes and the Warrants,  when executed and
delivered  in  accordance  with the terms of this  Agreement,  will be valid and
binding  obligations  of the  Company,  enforceable  in  accordance  with  their
respective terms.

          4.5 Liabilities.  The Company has no material  liabilities and, to the
best of its  knowledge,  knows of no  material  contingent  liabilities,  except
current  liabilities  incurred in the ordinary course of business which have not

Company in excess of $50,000  (other than  obligations  of, or payments  to, the
Company  arising from purchase or sale  agreements  entered into in the ordinary
course of business),  or (ii) the transfer or license of any patent,  copyright,

distribution of the Company's products or services,  or (iv)  indemnification by
the Company with respect to infringements of proprietary rights.

$100,000 in the aggregate, (iii) made any loans or advances to any person, other

the ordinary course of business.

               (c) For the  purposes  of  subsections  (a)  and (b)  above,  all
indebtedness,  liabilities, agreements,  understandings,  instruments, contracts
and proposed transactions involving the same person or entity (including persons

aggregated for the purpose of meeting the  individual  minimum dollar amounts of
such subsections.

               (d) The  Company  has not  engaged  in the past two  years in any
discussion  (i) with  any  representative  of any  corporation  or  corporations
regarding  the  consolidation  or  merger of the  Company  with or into any such

or other  business  entity or any individual  regarding the sale,  conveyance or
disposition  of all or  substantially  all of the  assets of the  Company,  or a
transaction  or series of  related  transactions  in which  more than 50% of the
voting power of the Company is disposed of or (iii)  regarding any other form of
acquisition, liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

reasonable expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (c) for other standard
employee  benefits made generally  available to all employees  (including  stock

their immediate families, is, directly or indirectly, interested in any material
contract  with  the  Company  and  no  agreements,  understandings  or  proposed
transactions  are  contemplated  between the Company  and any such  person.  The

with its independent  contractors,  will not result in any such  violation.  The
Company is not aware that any of its  employees is obligated  under any contract
(including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement,

Securities  being  offered  hereby  or  affect  the  price at  which  any of the
Securities being offered hereby may be issued.

          4.23 Listing.  The Company's Common Stock is listed for trading on the
NASD OTC Bulletin Board and satisfies all  requirements  for the continuation of

buy any  security  under  circumstances  that would  cause the  offering  of the
Securities  pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated  with prior offerings by
the Company for  purposes of the 1933 Act which would  prevent the Company  from
selling  the  Securities  pursuant  to Rule  506  under


                                      -8-
<PAGE>


the  1933  Act,  or  any  applicable   exchange-related   stockholder   approval

directors have studied and fully  understand the nature of the Securities  being
sold hereby and recognize that they have 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 of Common
Stock upon  conversion of the Notes and 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.

extent available on commercially reasonable terms.

          6.9 Books and Records. The Company will keep true records and books of

transactions  in  relation  to its  business  and  affairs  in  accordance  with
generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

          6.10 Intellectual  Property.  The Company shall maintain in full force

reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of its business.

          6.11 Properties.  The Company will keep its properties in good repair,

improvements  thereto;  and the  Company  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  reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect.

          6.12  Confidentiality.  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.

          6.13 Required Approvals.  For so long as at least 20% of the principal
amount of the Notes are  outstanding,  the  Company,  without the prior  written
consent of the Purchaser, shall not:

               (f)  sell,  lease or  otherwise  dispose  of more than 10% of the

property;

               (g)   liquidate,   dissolve   or   effect   a   recapitalization,

               (h) acquire any interest in any company or business (whether by a

joint venture or make any investments in any other entity;

               (i) become subject to (including,  without limitation,  by way of

provisions of this Agreement or any of the agreements contemplated thereby;

               (j)  create,  incur,  assume  or  suffer  to  exist  indebtedness

               (l) materially alter or change the business of the Company.

          6.14   Reissuance  of  Securities.   The  Company  agrees  to  reissue
certificates  representing  the  Securities  without  the  legends  set forth in
Section 5.7 above at such time as (a) the holder thereof is permitted to dispose
of such  Securities  pursuant to Rule  144(k)  under the Act, or (b) upon resale
subject  to an  effective  registration  statement  after  such  Securities  are
registered  under the Act. The Company agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser in
connection with all 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.

          6.15  Opinion.  On the Closing  Date,  the Company will deliver to the
Purchaser  an opinion  acceptable  to the  Purchaser  from the  Company's  legal
counsel in the form annexed  hereto as Exhibit D. The Company will  provide,  at
the Company's expense, such other legal opinions in the future as are reasonably
necessary for the conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants.

     7. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND PURCHASER REGARDING INDEMNIFICATION.

          7.1 Company  Indemnification.  The Company  agrees to indemnify,  hold
harmless,   reimburse  and  defend  Purchaser,  each  of  Purchaser's  officers,
directors,  agents,  affiliates,  control persons,  and principal  shareholders,
against any claim, cost, expense, liability,


                                      -13-
<PAGE>

obligation,  loss or damage  (including  reasonable  legal  fees) of any nature,
incurred by or imposed upon the  Purchaser  which  results,  arises out of or is
based upon (i) any  misrepresentation  by Company or breach of any  warranty  by
Company in this Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or any
Related  Agreement,  or (ii) any breach or default in  performance by Company of
any covenant or undertaking to be performed by Company  hereunder,  or any other
agreement entered into by the Company and Purchaser relating hereto.

          7.2 Purchaser's  Indemnification.  Purchaser agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless, reimburse and defend the Company at all times against any claim, cost,
expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees)
of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company which results, arises out
of or is based upon (a) any  misrepresentation by Purchaser in this Agreement or
in any exhibits or schedules  attached hereto or any Related  Agreement;  or (b)
any breach or default in performance by Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking
to be performed by Purchaser  hereunder,  or any other agreement entered into by
the Company and Purchaser relating hereto.

          7.3  Procedures.  The procedures and  limitations set forth in Section
9.6 shall apply to the indemnifications set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 above.

     8. CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES.

          8.1 Mechanics of Conversion.

               (a) Upon the conversion of the Notes or part thereof, the Company
shall,  at its own cost and expense,  take all necessary  action  (including the
issuance of an opinion of counsel) to assure that the Company's  transfer  agent
shall issue stock  certificates in the name of the Purchaser (or its nominee) or
such other persons as designated by the Purchaser and in such  denominations  to
be specified  representing  the number of Conversion  Shares  issuable upon such
conversion.   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  the  Conversion  Shares  issued  will  be  unlegended,
free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain a legend restricting
the resale or transferability  of the Conversion Shares,  provided the Purchaser
has notified  the Company of the  Purchaser's  intention to sell the  Conversion
Shares and the  Conversion  Shares are  included  in an  effective  registration
statement or are otherwise exempt from registration when sold.

               (b)  Purchaser  will give notice of its  decision to exercise its
right  to  convert  the  Notes  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"). The Purchaser will not be
required to surrender  the Notes until the Purchaser  receives a certificate  or
certificates,  as the case may be,  representing the Conversion  Shares or until
the Note has been fully satisfied.  Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is
telecopied or delivered to the Company in accordance with the provisions  hereof
shall be deemed a "Conversion Date." The Company will or will cause the transfer
agent to transmit the  Company's  Common  Stock  certificates  representing  the
shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes (and a certificate representing the
balance  of the  Notes not so  converted,  if  requested  by  Purchaser)  to the
Purchaser  via  express  courier  for  receipt by such  Purchaser  within  three
business  days after  receipt by the  Company of the Notice of  Conversion  (the
"Delivery Date").

               (c) The Company  understands  that a delay in the delivery of the
Conversion  Shares in the form  required  pursuant  to Section 8 hereof,  or the
Mandatory  Redemption  Payment  described  in  Section  8.2  hereof,  beyond the
Delivery Date or Mandatory  Redemption  Payment Date (as defined in Section 8.2)
could result in economic loss to the Purchaser. As compensation to the Purchaser
for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the Purchaser for late
issuance of the  Conversion  Shares in the form  required  pursuant to Section 8
hereof upon conversion of the Notes or late payment of the Mandatory  Redemption
Payment,  in the  amount of $100 per  business  day after the  Delivery  Date or
Mandatory  Redemption  Payment  Date,  as the case may be, for each $10,000 Note
principal  being  converted  or  redeemed.  The Company  shall pay any  payments
incurred  under  this  Section  in  immediately  available  funds  upon  demand.
Furthermore,  in addition to any other  remedies  which may be  available to the
Purchaser, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery
of the  Conversion


                                      -14-
<PAGE>

Shares by the Delivery Date or make payment by the Mandatory  Redemption Payment
Date,  the  Purchaser  will be  entitled  to revoke all or part of the  relevant
Notice  of  Conversion  or  rescind  all or  part  of the  notice  of  Mandatory
Redemption  by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company  whereupon the
Company and the Purchaser shall each be restored to their  respective  positions
immediately  prior to the  delivery of such  notice,  except  that late  payment
charges  described  above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation
or rescission is given to the Company.

               (d)  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.

          8.2 Mandatory Redemption.  In the event the Company is unable to issue
Conversion  Shares on a Delivery Date or at any time when a Note is convertible,
for any reason,  then at the Purchaser's  election,  the Company must pay to the
Purchaser  five (5)  business  days  after  request by the  Purchaser  or on the
Delivery  Date (if  requested  by the  Purchaser) a sum of money  determined  by
multiplying  the  principal  of the Note  required  to be  converted  and not so
converted (or otherwise not convertible,  as applicable) by 130%,  together with
accrued  but unpaid  interest  thereon  ("Mandatory  Redemption  Payment").  The
Mandatory  Redemption Payment must be received by the Purchaser on the same date
as the Conversion  Shares are otherwise  deliverable or within five (5) business
days after request,  whichever is sooner ("Mandatory  Redemption Payment Date").
Upon  receipt  of the  Mandatory  Redemption  Payment,  the  corresponding  Note
principal and interest will be deemed paid and no longer outstanding.

          8.3 Maximum Conversion. The Purchaser shall not be entitled to convert
on a  Conversion  Date that  amount of a Note or Notes in  connection  with that
number of shares of Common  Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the
number of  shares  of Common  Stock  beneficially  owned by the  Purchaser  on a
Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of the Notes with respect to which the  determination of this proviso
is being made on a Conversion Date,  which would result in beneficial  ownership
by the Purchaser of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of
the  Company on such  Conversion  Date.  For the  purposes of the proviso to the
immediately  preceding  sentence,  beneficial  ownership  shall be determined in
accordance  with  Section  13(d)  of  the  Exchange  Act  and  Regulation  13d-3
thereunder.  Subject  to the  foregoing,  a  Purchaser  shall not be  limited to
aggregate  conversions  of only  4.99%.  A  Purchaser  may void  the  conversion
limitation  described  in this  Section  8.3 upon 75 days  prior  notice  to the
Company or upon an Event of Default  under the Note.  A Purchaser  may  allocate
which of the equity of the Company deemed  beneficially  owned by such Purchaser
shall be  included  in the 4.99%  amount  described  above  and  which  shall be
allocated to the excess above 4.99%.

          8.4 Injunction - Posting of Bond. In the event a Purchaser shall elect
to convert a Note or part thereof, the Company may not refuse conversion for any
reason,  unless  an  injunction  from a court,  on  notice,  restraining  and or
enjoining  conversion  of all or part of said Note  shall  have been  sought and
obtained and the Company  posts a surety bond for the benefit of such  Purchaser
in the  amount  of 130% of the  amount  of the  Note,  which is  subject  to the
injunction,   which  bond  shall  remain  in  effect  until  the  completion  of
arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable
to such Purchaser to the extent it obtains judgment.

          8.5  Buy-In.  In  addition  to  any  other  rights  available  to  the
Purchaser, if the Company fails to deliver to the Purchaser Conversion Shares by
the Delivery Date and if after the Delivery Date the Purchaser  purchases (in an
open  market  transaction  or  otherwise)  shares of Common  Stock to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by such Purchaser of the Common Stock which the Purchaser
anticipated receiving upon such conversion (a "Buy-In"),  then the Company shall
pay in cash to the  Purchaser  (in  addition  to any  remedies  available  to or
elected  by such  Purchaser)  the  amount  by which  (A) the  Purchaser's  total
purchase  price  (including  brokerage  commissions,  if any) for the  shares of
Common Stock so purchased  exceeds (B) the aggregate  principal  and/or interest
amount of the Note, for which such conversion was not timely  honored,  together
with


                                      -15-
<PAGE>

interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum,  accruing until such amount and any
accrued  interest  thereon  is paid  in  full  (which  amount  shall  be paid as
liquidated  damages  and  not as a  penalty).  For  example,  if  the  Purchaser
purchases  shares of Common  Stock having a total  purchase  price of $11,000 to
cover a Buy-In  with  respect  to an  attempted  conversion  of  $10,000 of Note
principal  and/or  interest,  the Company shall be required to pay the Purchaser
$1,000,  plus interest.  The Purchaser  shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Purchaser in respect of the Buy-In.

     9. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

          9.1  Registration  Rights  Granted.  The  Company  hereby  grants  the
following registration rights to holders of the securities purchased hereby.

               (a) On two occasions,  for a period  commencing 60 days after the
Closing  Date,  but not later than four (4) years  after the  Closing  Date (the
"Request  Date"),  the Company,  upon a written request therefor from holders of
more than 50% of the aggregate of the Company's Securities then outstanding,  on
an as  converted  basis (the  Conversion  Shares and  Warrant  Shares  issued or
issuable with respect to all Notes or Warrants issued or to be issued hereunder,
being,  the  "Registrable  Securities"),  shall  prepare and file with the SEC a
registration  statement  under  the  Securities  Act  covering  the  Registrable
Securities  which are the  subject  of such  request,  unless  such  Registrable
Securities are the subject of an effective registration  statement. In addition,
upon the receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice
to all other record holders of the Registrable Securities that such registration
statement  is to be filed  and  shall  include  in such  registration  statement
Registrable Securities for which it has received written requests within 10 days
after the  Company  gives such  written  notice.  Such other  requesting  record
holders shall be deemed to have exercised their demand  registration right under
this Section  9.1. As a condition  precedent  to the  inclusion  of  Registrable
Securities,  the holder thereof shall provide the Company with such  information
as the Company  reasonably  requests.  The  obligation of the Company under this
Section 9.1 shall be limited to two registration statements.

               (b) If the Company at any time  proposes  to register  any of its
securities under the Act for sale to the public,  whether for its own account or
for the  account of other  security  holders  or both,  except  with  respect to
registration  statements  on Forms S-4,  S-8 or another form not  available  for
registering  the  Registrable  Securities  for sale to the public,  provided the
Registrable  Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Purchaser
or subsequent holder pursuant to an effective registration statement,  each such
time it will give at least 30 days' prior written notice to the record holder of
any  Securities  of its  intention  so to do.  Upon the  written  request of the
holder,  received  by the  Company  within 30 days  after the giving of any such
notice by the  Company,  to  register  any of the  Registrable  Securities,  the
Company will cause such Registrable  Securities as to which  registration  shall
have been so requested to be included  with the  securities to be covered by the
registration  statement  proposed to be filed by the Company,  all to the extent
required to permit the sale or other  disposition of the Registrable  Securities
so registered by the holder of such  Registrable  Securities (the "Seller").  In
the event that any  registration  pursuant to this  Section  9.1(b) shall be, in
whole or in  part,  an  underwritten  public  offering  of  Common  Stock of the
Company,  the number of shares of Registrable  Securities to be included in such
an underwriting may be reduced by the managing  underwriter if and to the extent
that the Company and the  underwriter  shall  reasonably  be of the opinion that
such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold
by the Company  therein;  provided,  however,  that the Company shall notify the
Seller  in  writing  of  any  such  reduction.   Notwithstanding   the  forgoing
provisions,  or Section  9.1(a)  hereof,  the Company  may  withdraw or delay or
suffer a delay of any registration  statement referred to in this Section 9.1(b)
without thereby incurring any liability to the Seller.

               (c) If,  at the time any  written  request  for  registration  is
received by the Company  pursuant to Section 9.1(a),  the Company has determined
to proceed with the actual  preparation  and filing of a registration  statement
under the Securities Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash
of any of its  securities  for the Company's own account,  such written  request
shall be deemed to have been  given  pursuant  to  Section  9.1(b)  rather  than
Section 9.1(a), and the rights of the holders of Registrable  Securities covered
by such  written  request  shall be governed by Section  9.1(b)  except that the
Company or underwriter,  if any, may not withdraw such registration or limit the
amount of Registrable Securities included in such registration.


                                      -16-
<PAGE>


               (d) The  Company  shall  file with the SEC  within 20 days of the
date hereof (the "Filing Date"),  and use its reasonable  commercial  efforts to
cause to be declared effective a Form SB-2 registration statement (or such other
form that it is  eligible  to use) within 45 days of the Filing Date in order to
register  the  Registrable  Securities  for  resale and  distribution  under the
Securities Act. The registration  statement  described in this paragraph must be
declared  effective  by the SEC  within 45 days of the Filing  Date (as  defined
herein)  ("Effective Date"). The Company will register not less than a number of
shares of Common  Stock in the  aforedescribed  registration  statement  that is
equal to 300% of the  Warrant  Shares  and  Conversion  Shares  issuable  at the
Conversion Prices set forth in the Warrants and Notes, respectively,  that would
be in effect  on the  Closing  Date or the date of  filing of such  registration
statement  (employing  the  conversion  price which would  result in the greater
number of Shares),  assuming the  conversion of 100% of the Notes which are then
outstanding  or issuable  hereunder,  and at least one share of common stock for
each  common  share  issuable  upon  exercise  of the  Warrants  which  are then
outstanding or issuable  hereunder  (employing  the Conversion  Price that would
result in the greater number of shares).  The  Registrable  Securities  shall be
reserved  and set aside  exclusively  for the benefit of the  Purchaser  and the
holders  of the  Warrants,  as the  case may be,  and not  issued,  employed  or
reserved for anyone other than the  Purchaser  and the holders of the  Warrants.
Such registration statement will be promptly amended or additional  registration
statements  will be  promptly  filed by the  Company as  necessary  to  register
additional  Company  Shares  to allow the  public  resale  of all  Common  Stock
included in and issuable by virtue of the Registrable Securities.  No securities
of the Company  other than the  Registrable  Securities  will be included in the
registration statement described in this Section 9.1(d).

          9.2 Registration  Procedures.  If and whenever the Company is required
by the provisions hereof to effect the registration of any shares of Registrable
Securities under the Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

               (a) prepare and file with the SEC a  registration  statement with
respect to such  securities and use its best efforts to cause such  registration
statement  to become and  remain  effective  for the period of the  distribution
contemplated  thereby  (determined as herein provided),  and promptly provide to
the holders of Registrable  Securities  copies of all filings and SEC letters of
comment;

               (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements
to such registration  statement and the prospectus used in connection  therewith
as may be  necessary to keep such  registration  statement  effective  until the
later of: (i) six months after the latest exercise period of the Warrants;  (ii)
twelve months after the Maturity  Date of the last maturing  Notes or (iii) four
years after the Closing Date,  and comply with the  provisions of the Securities
Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered
by such  registration  statement in accordance with the Seller's intended method
of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period;

               (c) furnish to the Seller,  and to each  underwriter if any, such
number of copies  of the  registration  statement  and the  prospectus  included
therein  (including each preliminary  prospectus) as such persons reasonably may
request to facilitate  the public sale or their  disposition  of the  securities
covered by such registration statement;

               (d) use its best  efforts to  register  or qualify  the  Seller's
Registrable   Securities  covered  by  such  registration  statement  under  the
securities  or "blue  sky" laws of such  jurisdictions  as the Seller and in the
case  of  an  underwritten  public  offering,  the  managing  underwriter  shall
reasonably request,  provided,  however, that the Company shall not for any such
purpose be  required  to qualify  generally  to  transact  business as a foreign
corporation  in any  jurisdiction  where it is not so qualified or to consent to
general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

               (e) list the Registrable  Securities covered by such registration
statement with any securities  exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company
is then listed;

               (f) immediately notify the Seller and each underwriter under such
registration  statement  at any  time  when a  prospectus  relating  thereto  is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the


                                      -17-
<PAGE>

happening  of any event of which the Company has  knowledge as a result of which
the  prospectus  contained in such  registration  statement,  as then in effect,
includes  an untrue  statement  of a material  fact or omits to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the  statements  therein
not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; and

               (g) make available for inspection by the Seller,  any underwriter
participating in any distribution pursuant to such registration  statement,  and
any attorney,  accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or  underwriter,
all publicly available,  non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent
corporate  documents  and  properties  of the Company,  and cause the  Company's
officers,   directors   and   employees  to  supply  all   publicly   available,
non-confidential  information  reasonably requested by the seller,  underwriter,
attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement.

          9.3 Provision of Documents.

               (a)  At  the  request  of  the  Seller,  provided  a  demand  for
registration  has  been  made  pursuant  to  Section  9.1(a)  or a  request  for
registration  has  been  made  pursuant  to  Section  9.1(b),   the  Registrable
Securities  will be included in a registration  statement filed pursuant to this
Section 9.

               (b) In connection with each  registration  hereunder,  the Seller
will  furnish to the  Company in writing  such  information  and  representation
letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably
shall be necessary  in order to assure  compliance  with federal and  applicable
state securities laws. In connection with each registration  pursuant to Section
9 covering an underwritten public offering,  the Company and the Seller agree to
enter into a written  agreement  with the managing  underwriter in such form and
containing such provisions as are customary in the securities  business for such
an arrangement  between such underwriter and companies of the Company's size and
investment stature.

          9.4 Non-Registration  Events. The Company and the Purchaser agree that
the Seller will suffer  damages if any  registration  statement  required  under
Section  9.1(a) above is not filed within 30 days after  written  request by the
holder and not declared  effective by the SEC within 90 days after such request,
and maintained in the manner and within the time periods contemplated by Section
9 hereof,  and it would not be feasible to ascertain  the extent of such damages
with precision.  Accordingly,  if (i) the  Registration  Statement  described in
Section  9.1(a) is not filed within 30 days of such written  request,  or is not
declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the date that is 90 days after such
request,  or (ii) the registration  statement on Form SB-2 or such other form as
described  in Section  9.1(d) is not filed on or before  the Filing  Date or not
declared effective on or before the sooner of the Effective Date, or within five
days of  receipt  by the  Company  of a  communication  from  the SEC  that  the
registration  statement  described in Section  9.1(d) will not be  reviewed,  or
(iii) any registration statement described in Section 9.1(a) or (d) is filed and
declared  effective but shall  thereafter  cease to be effective  (without being
succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared
effective)  for a period of time which shall exceed 30 days in the aggregate per
year but not more than 20 consecutive  calendar days (defined as a period of 365
days commencing on the date the  Registration  Statement is declared  effective)
(each such event  referred  to in this  Section  9.4 is  referred to herein as a
"Non-Registration  Event"),  then,  for so long as such  Non-Registration  Event
shall continue,  (i) the Company shall pay in cash as Liquidated Damages to each
holder of any  Registrable  Securities  an amount  equal to two percent (2%) per
month or part thereof during the pendency of such Non-Registration  Event of the
principal of the Notes issued in connection  with the  Offering,  whether or not
converted,  then owned of record by such holder or issuable as of or  subsequent
to the occurrence of such  Non-Registration  Event and (ii) the Conversion Price
as defined in Section  2.1 of the Notes  shall be reduced by 10% for each 30-day
period  following  the  Effective  Date that the  Registration  Statement is not
declared  effective  by the SEC.  Payments to be made  pursuant to this  Section
shall be due and payable immediately upon demand in immediately available funds.
In the event a Mandatory  Redemption Payment is demanded from the Company by the
holder  pursuant to Section 8.2 of this Agreement,  then the Liquidated  Damages
described  in this  Section  9.4 shall no longer  accrue on the  portion  of the
purchase price underlying the Mandatory  Redemption Payment,  from and after the
date the holder receives the Mandatory  Redemption Payment. It shall be deemed a
Non-Registration  Event to the extent that all the Common Stock  included in the
Registrable  Securities  and  underlying  the  Securities  is not included in an
effective  registration  statement  as of and  after the  Effective  Date at the
conversion prices in effect from and after the Effective Date.


                                      -18-

          9.5 Expenses.  All expenses  incurred by the Company in complying with
Section 9, including,  without  limitation,  all  registration  and filing fees,
printing  expenses,  fees and  disbursements  of counsel and independent  public
accountants for the Company,  fees and expenses  (including  reasonable  counsel
fees) incurred in connection with complying with state  securities or "blue sky"
laws, fees of the NASD,  transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars,
fees of, and disbursements incurred by, one counsel for the Seller, and costs of
insurance are called  "Registration  Expenses".  All underwriting  discounts and
selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities,  including
any fees and  disbursements  of any special  counsel to the Seller  beyond those
included in Registration Expenses, are called "Selling Expenses."

               The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with
the  registration  statement under Section 9. All Selling Expenses in connection
with each  registration  statement  under Section 9 shall be borne by the Seller
and may be  apportioned  among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares
sold by the Seller relative to the number of shares sold under such registration
statement or as all Sellers thereunder may agree.

          9.6 Indemnification and Contribution.

               (a) In the event of a registration of any Registrable  Securities
under the  Securities  Act pursuant to Section 9, the Company will indemnify and
hold  harmless each Seller,  each officer of each Seller,  each director of each
Seller,  each  underwriter of such  Registrable  Securities  thereunder and each
other  person,  if any, who controls any such Seller or  underwriter  within the
meaning  of  the  Securities  Act,  against  any  losses,   claims,  damages  or
liabilities,  joint or several,  to which the  Seller,  or such  underwriter  or
controlling  person may become  subject under the  Securities  Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses,  claims,  damages or liabilities  (or actions in respect
thereof)  arise out of or are based upon any untrue  statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact  contained in any  registration  statement  under
which such  Registrable  Securities  was  registered  under the Act  pursuant to
Section 9, any preliminary  prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or
any  amendment  or  supplement  thereof,  or arise out of or are based  upon the
omission or alleged  omission to state  therein a material  fact  required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements  therein not misleading,  and
will  reimburse  the Seller,  each such  underwriter  and each such  controlling
person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with  investigating  or defending  any such loss,  claim,  damage,  liability or
action; provided,  however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case
if and to the extent that any such loss,  claim,  damage or liability arises out
of or is based upon an untrue  statement or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such
Seller, the underwriter or any such controlling  person in writing  specifically
for use in such registration statement or prospectus.

               (b) In the  event  of a  registration  of any of the  Registrable
Securities  under the Act pursuant to Section 9, the Seller will  indemnify  and
hold  harmless  the Company,  and each person,  if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Securities  Act, each officer of the Company who signs
the registration statement and each director of the Company, against all losses,
claims,  damages or liabilities,  joint or several, to which the Company or such
officer or director may become  subject under the  Securities  Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses,  claims,  damages or liabilities  (or actions in respect
thereof)  arise out of or are based upon any untrue  statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact  contained in the  registration  statement  under
which such  Registrable  Securities  were  registered  under the  Securities Act
pursuant to Section 9, any preliminary  prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein,  or any amendment or supplement  thereof,  or arise out of or are based
upon the omission or alleged  omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and will  reimburse  the Company and each such officer or director for any legal
or other expenses  reasonably  incurred by them in connection with investigating
or  defending  any such loss,  claim,  damage,  liability  or action,  provided,
however,  that the Seller will be liable  hereunder in any such case if and only
to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
based upon an untrue  statement  or alleged  untrue  statement  or  omission  or
alleged  omission  made in  reliance  upon and in  conformity  with  information
pertaining to such Seller, as such,  furnished in writing to the Company by such
Seller  specifically for use in such registration  statement or prospectus,  and
provided,  further, however, that the liability of the Seller hereunder shall be
limited to the proportion of any such loss, claim, damage,  liability or expense
which  is  equal  to the  proportion  that  the  public  offering  price  of the
Registrable  Securities  sold by the Seller  under such  registration


                                      -19-
<PAGE>

statement  bears to the  total  public  offering  price of all  securities  sold
thereunder,  but not in any event to exceed  the net  proceeds  received  by the
Seller  from the sale of  Registrable  Securities  covered by such  registration
statement.

               (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified  party  hereunder of
notice of the  commencement of any action,  such  indemnified  party shall, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder,
notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof,  but the omission so to notify
the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have
to such  indemnified  party other than under this Section  9.6(c) and shall only
relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified  party under
this Section 9.6(c) if and to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by
such omission.  In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified
party and it shall notify the indemnifying  party of the  commencement  thereof,
the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it
shall  wish,  to  assume  and   undertake  the  defense   thereof  with  counsel
satisfactory to such indemnified  party, and, after notice from the indemnifying
party to such  indemnified  party of its election so to assume and undertake the
defense thereof,  the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified
party under this Section 9.6(c) for any legal expenses  subsequently incurred by
such  indemnified  party in  connection  with the  defense  thereof  other  than
reasonable  costs of  investigation  and of liaison  with  counsel so  selected,
provided,  however,  that, if the defendants in any such action include both the
indemnified  party and the  indemnifying  party and the indemnified  party shall
have reasonably  concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it
which are different  from or additional to those  available to the  indemnifying
party or if the interests of the indemnified  party  reasonably may be deemed to
conflict with the interests of the indemnifying  party, the indemnified  parties
shall have the right to select one  separate  counsel  and to assume  such legal
defenses and otherwise to  participate  in the defense of such action,  with the
reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related
to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.

               (d) In order to provide for just and  equitable  contribution  in
the event of joint  liability  under the Act in any case in which either (i) the
Seller,   or  any  controlling   person  of  the  Seller,   makes  a  claim  for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.6 but it is judicially determined (by
the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and
the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that
such  indemnification may not be enforced in such case  notwithstanding the fact
that this  Section  9.6  provides  for  indemnification  in such  case,  or (ii)
contribution  under the Securities Act may be required on the part of the Seller
or controlling  person of the Seller in circumstances for which  indemnification
is provided under this Section 9.6; then, and in each such case, the Company and
the  Seller  will  contribute  to  the  aggregate  losses,  claims,  damages  or
liabilities  to which they may be subject  (after  contribution  from others) in
such  proportion  so that  the  Seller  is  responsible  only  for  the  portion
represented by the percentage  that the public  offering price of its securities
offered by the registration  statement bears to the public offering price of all
securities offered by such registration statement,  provided,  however, that, in
any such case,  (A) the Seller will not be required to contribute  any amount in
excess  of the  public  offering  price of all  such  securities  offered  by it
pursuant to such registration  statement;  and (B) no person or entity guilty of
fraudulent  misrepresentation  (within the meaning of Section  10(f) of the Act)
will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation.

     10.  OFFERING  RESTRICTIONS.  Except  as  previously  disclosed  in the SEC
Reports or stock or stock  options  granted to  employees  or  directors  of the
Company;  or  equity or debt  issued  in  connection  with an  acquisition  of a
business or assets by the  Company;  or the  issuance by the Company of stock in
connection with the  establishment  of a joint venture  partnership or licensing
arrangement  (these  exceptions   hereinafter   referred  to  as  the  "Excepted
Issuances"),  the Company will not issue any equity,  convertible  debt or other
securities  which are or could be (by conversion or  registration)  free-trading
securities  prior to the expiration of 12 months from the actual  effective date
of the registration  statement described in Section 9.1(d) above (the "Exclusion
Period").  This  restriction  shall not  prohibit  the Company  from issuing any
equity,  convertible  debt or other  securities  prior to the  expiration of the
Exclusion  Period,  provided  that  such  equity,   convertible  debt  or  other
securities are restricted securities when issued and remain restricted until the
expiration of the Exclusion Period.  Notwithstanding the above, if the Purchaser
elects not to further fund the Company  following the  transaction  contemplated
hereby, the Purchaser shall waive the provisions of this Section 10.

     11. ACCOUNTS  RECEIVABLE.  All sums due or which shall become due and owing
to the Company with respect to the Company's  Accounts  Receivable  set forth on
Schedule A attached hereto ("Accounts  Receivable") shall be immediately paid to
the  Purchaser  by wire  transfer,  upon the  Company's  receipt of such sums in
immediately available funds. In consideration of an early redemption fee, ninety
percent  (90%) of the sums  received  pursuant to this section  shall be applied
against the principal amount of the Note, plus any accrued interest thereon. The
Company  hereby  agrees to provide the  Purchaser no later than the third day of
every month, a reconciliation  report of its Accounts  Receivable and an updated
Accounts  Receivable  Aging  schedule.  The Purchaser will be granted a security
interest in the Accounts Receivables to be memorialized in a Security Agreement.
The  Company  will also  execute  all such  documents  reasonably  necessary  to
memorialize and further protect the security interest described above.

     12. MISCELLANEOUS.

          12.1 Governing Law. This Agreement  shall be governed by and construed
in  accordance  with  the laws of the  State  of New  York,  without  regard  to
principles of conflicts of laws.  Any action brought by either party against the
other  concerning  the  transactions  contemplated  by this  Agreement  shall be
brought only in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in
the state of New York. Both parties and the individuals executing this Agreement
and  other  agreements  on  behalf  of  the  Company  agree  to  submit  to  the
jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing  party shall
be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable  attorney's  fees and
costs.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement
delivered  in  connection   herewith  is  invalid  or  unenforceable  under  any
applicable  statute  or  rule  of law,  then  such  provision  shall  be  deemed
inoperative  to the extent that it may  conflict  therewith  and shall be deemed
modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such  provision  which
may prove invalid or  unenforceable  under any law shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.

          12.2  Survival.   The  representations,   warranties,   covenants  and
agreements made herein shall survive any investigation made by the Purchaser and
the  closing of the  transactions  contemplated  hereby.  All  statements  as to
factual matters contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or
on behalf of the Company  pursuant  hereto in connection  with the  transactions
contemplated  hereby shall be deemed to be representations and warranties by the
Company hereunder solely as of the date of such certificate or instrument.

          12.3 Successors and Assigns.  Except as otherwise  expressly  provided
herein,  the  provisions  hereof  shall  inure to the benefit of, and be binding
upon,  the  successors,  assigns,  heirs,  executors and  administrators  of the
parties  hereto and shall  inure to the  benefit of and be  enforceable  by each
person who shall be a holder of the Securities from time to time.

          12.4 Entire  Agreement.  This  Agreement,  the exhibits and  schedules
hereto, the Related Agreements and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto
constitute


                                      -21-
<PAGE>

the full and entire  understanding and agreement between the parties with regard
to the subjects hereof and no party shall be liable or bound to any other in any
manner by any  representations,  warranties,  covenants and agreements except as
specifically set forth herein and therein.

          12.5  Severability.  In case any provision of the  Agreement  shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable,  the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

          12.6 Amendment and Waiver.

               (a) This  Agreement  may be  amended  or  modified  only upon the
written consent of the Company and the Purchaser.

               (b) The  obligations of the Company and the rights of the holders

          12.7  Delays or  Omissions.  It is agreed that no delay or omission to
exercise  any right,  power or remedy  accruing  to any party,  upon any breach,
default or  noncompliance  by another party under this  Agreement or the Related
Agreements,  shall  impair  any such  right,  power or  remedy,  nor shall it be
construed to be a waiver of any such breach,  default or  noncompliance,  or any
acquiescence  therein, or of or in any similar breach,  default or noncompliance
thereafter occurring.  It is further agreed that any waiver,  permit, consent or
approval of any kind or character on the Purchaser's part of any breach, default
or noncompliance  under this Agreement,  the Notes or the Related  Agreements or
any  waiver  on  such  party's  part  of any  provisions  or  conditions  of the
Agreement,  a Note or the  Related  Agreements  must be in writing  and shall be
effective  only to the  extent  specifically  set  forth  in such  writing.  All
remedies,  either under this Agreement, the Notes or the Related Agreements,  by
law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

          12.8 Notices.  All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the
party to be  notified,  (b) when sent by  confirmed  telex or  facsimile if sent

such other  address as the Company or the  Purchaser  may  designate by ten days
advance written notice to the other parties hereto.

          12.9  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.

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

shall constitute one instrument.

          12.12 Broker's Fees. 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, except as specified herein with respect to
the  Purchaser.  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 12.12 being untrue.

          12.13  Indemnification.  The Company shall indemnify the Purchaser for
any losses or expenses  incurred by the Purchaser in connection  with any claims
brought  against  the  Purchaser  by  any  third  party   (including  any  other
stockholder of the Company) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement,  other than for a breach of  representation  or warranty  made by the
Purchaser herein.

          12.14  Construction.  Each party  acknowledges  that its legal counsel
