                     (a)    As promptly as practicable after the receipt of such

certificates for any fractional  shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of this  Convertible  Note (or specified  portion  thereof) or, at the Company's
option, cash in lieu of scrip for any fraction of a share to which the Holder is
entitled upon conversion as provided in Section 3.05.

                     (b)    Such  conversion   shall  be  deemed  to  have  been
effected  immediately  prior to the close of business  on the date  ("Conversion
Date") on which the  Company  shall  have  received  both  such  notice  and the
surrendered  Convertible  Note as aforesaid,  and at such time the rights of the
Holder of this  Convertible  Note shall cease and the Person or Persons in whose
name or names any certificate or  certificates  for shares of Common Stock shall
be issuable  upon such  conversion  shall be deemed to have become the holder or
the Holder of record of the shares represented thereby.

therefrom.


              Section 3.04. NO ADJUSTMENTS FOR INTEREST OR DIVIDENDS. No payment
or  adjustment  shall be made by or on behalf of the  Company  on account of any
interest  accrued on this  Convertible  Note  surrendered  for  conversion or on
account of any cash  dividends  on the shares of Common  Stock  issued upon such
conversion  which were  declared  for  payment to the Holder of shares of Common
Stock of record as of a date  prior to the  Conversion  Date.  All  payments  of
accrued  interest on this  Convertible  Note shall be made in cash or additional
stock at the Conversion Price, at the Holder's option.

              Section 3.05.  FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company,  at its option, may
issue

                                       11
<PAGE>


fractional  shares of Common Stock upon any conversion of this  Convertible Note
or, in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock to which any Holder would
otherwise be entitled  upon  conversion of this  Convertible  Note (or specified
portions thereof), the Company may pay a cash adjustment for such fraction in an
amount equal to same fraction of the Conversion Price per share.

              Section 3.06. ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE. The Conversion Price
shall be adjusted as set forth in this section.

                            (a)    In the event that the Company  shall make any
distribution  of its assets upon or with respect to its shares of Common  Stock,
as a liquidating or partial  liquidating  dividend,  or other than as a dividend
payable out of earnings or any surplus legally available for dividends under the
laws  of the  state  of  incorporation  of  the  Company,  the  Holder  of  this
Convertible  Note,  upon the  exercise of his right to convert  after the record
date for such  distribution  or, in the absence of a record date, after the date
of such  distribution,  receive,  in addition to the shares  subscribed for, the
amount of such  assets  (or,  at the option of the  Company,  a sum equal to the
value  thereof  at the  time of  distribution  as  determined  by the  Board  of
Directors  in its sole  discretion)  which  would have been  distributed  to the
Holder if he had exercised his right to convert  immediately prior to the record
date for such  distribution  or, in the  absence of a record  date,  immediately
prior to the date of such distribution.

                            (b)    In  case  at  any  time  the  Company   shall
subdivide  its  outstanding  shares of  Common  Stock  into a greater  number of
shares,  the  Current  Conversion  Price  in  effect  immediately  prior to such
subdivision  shall  be  proportionately  reduced  and  conversely,  in case  the
outstanding  shares of Common  Stock of the  Company  shall be  combined  into a
smaller number of shares,  the Current  Conversion  Price in effect  immediately
prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.

                            (c)    If    any    capital     reorganization    or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger
of the Company with another  corporation,  or the sale, transfer or lease of all
or substantially all of its assets to another corporation,  shall be effected in
such a way that the  holder  of  shares of Common  Stock  shall be  entitled  to
receive  shares,  securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for shares
of Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization,  reclassification,
consolidation,  merger or sale,  the  Company or such  successor  or  purchasing
corporation,  as the case may be, shall execute an amendment to this Convertible
Note  providing  that the Holder of this  Convertible  Note shall have the right
thereafter and until the expiration of the period of  convertibility  to convert
this Convertible  Note into the kind and amount of shares,  securities or assets
receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification,  consolidation, merger or
sale by a holder  of the  number  of shares of  Common  Stock  into  which  this
Convertible   Note  might  have  been  converted   immediately   prior  to  such
reorganization,  reclassification,  consolidation,  merger or sale,  subject  to
adjustments  which shall be as nearly  equivalent as may be  practicable  to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 3.

                            (d)    Upon such adjustment of the Conversion  Price
pursuant to the

                                       12
<PAGE>


provisions of this Section 3.06, the number of shares  issuable upon  conversion
of this  Convertible  Note  shall be  adjusted  to the  nearest  full  amount by
multiplying a number equal to the Conversion Price in effect  immediately  prior
to such  adjustment  by the  number  of shares of  Common  Stock  issuable  upon
exercise of this  Convertible  Note  immediately  prior to such  adjustment  and
dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Conversion Price.

              Section 3.07. COVENANT TO RESERVE SHARES FOR CONVERSION.

                     The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and
keep  available out of its  authorized  shares of Common  Stock,  such number of
shares of Common Stock as shall then be deliverable  upon the conversion of this
Convertible Note. All shares of Common Stock which shall be deliverable shall be
duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

              Section 3.08. NOTICE OF CHANGE OF CONVERSION  PRICE.  Whenever the
Conversion  Price is adjusted,  as herein  provided,  the Company shall promptly
send to the Holder a certificate  of a firm of  independent  public  accountants
(who may be the accountants  regularly  employed by the Company) selected by the
Board of Directors  setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and
setting forth a brief  statement of the facts  requiring such  adjustment.  Such
certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment.

<PAGE>


in a particular  instance and either  retroactively  or  prospectively),  if the
