<PAGE>

upon exercise thereof (the "WARRANT SHARES" and, collectively with the Notes and
Warrants, the "SECURITIES") for its own account and not with a present view
towards the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales
registered or exempted from registration under the Securities Act; provided,
however, that by making the representations herein, the Buyer does not agree to
hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves
the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with or
pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act.

               b. ACCREDITED INVESTOR STATUS. The Buyer is an "accredited
investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the
Securities Act (an "ACCREDITED INVESTOR").

               c. RELIANCE ON EXEMPTIONS. The Buyer understands that the
Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions
from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities
laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the
Buyer's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements,
acknowledgments and understandings of the Buyer set forth herein in order to
determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Buyer
to acquire the Securities.

               d. INFORMATION. The Buyer and its advisors, if any, have had the
opportunity to ask questions of management of the Company and have been
furnished with all information relating to the business, finances and operations
of the Company and information relating to the offer and sale of the Securities
which have been requested by the Buyer or its advisors. Neither such inquiries
nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by the Buyer or any of its
advisors or representatives shall modify, amend or affect the Buyer's right to
rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained in Section 3

provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, the sale or re-sale of the

any applicable state securities laws, and the Securities may not be transferred
unless (i) the Securities are sold pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, (ii) the Buyer shall have delivered to the
Company an opinion of counsel that shall be in form, substance and scope
customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions to the effect that
the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to
an exemption from such registration, which opinion shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Company, (iii) the Securities are sold or transferred to an
"affiliate" (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or a
successor rule) ("RULE 144")) of the Buyer who agrees to sell or otherwise

other lending arrangement.

               g. LEGENDS. The Buyer understands that the Notes and the Warrants
shall bear a restrictive legend in the form as set forth on Exhibit "A" and
Exhibit "B", respectively. The Buyer understands that, until such time as the
resale of the Warrant Shares have been registered under the Securities Act as
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S without any restriction as to the number of
securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the
Warrant Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form
(and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates
evidencing such Securities):

          "Neither the offer nor sale of the securities represented by this
          certificate has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
          amended, (the "Act"). The securities may not be sold, transferred or
          assigned in the absence of an effective registration statement for the
          securities under the Act, or an opinion of counsel, in form, substance
          and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
          transactions, that registration is not required under the Act or
          unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Act."

standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated or

Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in
good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership or use of property or

Material Adverse Effect.

                    (ii) "MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT" means any material adverse
effect on the business, operations, assets, financial condition or prospects of
the Company and the Subsidiaries individually and taken as a whole, or on the
transactions contemplated hereby or by the agreements or instruments to be
entered into in connection herewith.

arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for
rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments
to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of any
executive officer of the Company or any of its

                                        9

<PAGE>

Subsidiaries, any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any
officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an
officer, director, trustee or partner.

               m. PERMITS; COMPLIANCE. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries
is in possession of all franchises, grants, authorizations, licenses, permits,
easements, variances, exemptions, consents, certificates, approvals and orders
necessary to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business
as it is now being conducted (collectively, the "COMPANY PERMITS"), and there is
no action pending or, to the knowledge of any executive officer of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened regarding suspension or cancellation of
any of the Company Permits. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is
in conflict with, or in default or violation of, any of the Company Permits,
except for any such conflicts, defaults or violations which, individually or in
the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Since June 30, 2005, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has
received any notification with respect to possible conflicts, defaults or
violations of applicable laws, except for notices relating to possible
conflicts, defaults or violations, which conflicts, defaults or violations would
not have a Material Adverse Effect.

               n. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. There are, with respect to the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, no past or present violations of Environmental Laws
(as defined below), releases of any material into the environment, actions,
activities, circumstances, conditions, events, incidents, or contractual
obligations which may give rise to any common law environmental liability or any
liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980 or similar federal, state, local or foreign laws and
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice with
respect to any of the foregoing, nor is any action pending or, to the knowledge
of any executive officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened
in connection with any of the foregoing. The term "ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS" means all
federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of
human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air,
surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including,
without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or
threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants contaminants, or toxic or hazardous
substances or wastes (collectively, "HAZARDOUS MATERIALS") into the environment,
or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use,
treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as
well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters,
injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits,
plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder. Other
than those that are or were stored, used or disposed of in compliance with
applicable law, no Hazardous Materials are contained on or about any real
property currently owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, and no Hazardous Materials were released on or about any real
property previously owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries during the period the property was owned, leased or used by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except in the normal course of the Company's
or any of its Subsidiaries' business. There are no underground storage tanks on
or under any real property owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries that are not in compliance with applicable law.

               o. TITLE TO PROPERTY. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good
and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable
title to all

                                       10

<PAGE>

personal property owned by them which is material to the business of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all Liens and defects
except such as would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Any real property and
facilities held under lease by the Company and its Subsidiaries are held by them
under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as would not
have a Material Adverse Effect.

               p. INSURANCE. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are
insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses
and risks, including casualty and liability insurance, and in such amounts as
management of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses
in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are engaged, which such policies are
set forth on the DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE. No executive officer of the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries has any reason to believe that the Company and its
Subsidiaries will not be able to renew their existing insurance coverage as and
when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers
as may be necessary to continue such businesses at a cost that would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.

               q. INTERNAL ACCOUNTING CONTROLS. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient, in
the judgment of the Company's board of directors, to provide reasonable
assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's
general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (iii)
access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or
specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is
compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action
is taken with respect to any differences. The Company has adopted and
implemented written procedures of internal control over financial reporting as
required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder.

               r. FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES; FOREIGN ASSETS CONTROL REGULATIONS.
Neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any current director or
officer, nor, to the knowledge of any executive officer of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, any past director, past officer, agent, employee or other
Person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary has, in the course of
his actions for, or on behalf of, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (i)
used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or
other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct or
indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or
employee from corporate funds; (iii) violated or is in violation of any
provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or (iv)
made any bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful
payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee. Neither the
sale of the Securities by the Company hereunder nor its use of the proceeds
thereof will violate the trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any foreign
assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR
Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive
order relating therefrom. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary nor any
director or senior officer of the Company or any Subsidiary is a Person named on
the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") list,
nor is a Person prohibited under the OFAC programs.

                                       11

<PAGE>

               s. SOLVENCY. The Company and each Subsidiary (after giving effect
to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) is solvent (i.e., its assets
have a fair market value in excess of the amount required to pay its probable
liabilities on its existing debts as they become absolute and matured). The
Company and each Subsidiary (after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement) has the ability to pay its debts from time to
time incurred in connection therewith as such debts mature.

               t. NO INVESTMENT COMPANY. The Company is not, and upon the
issuance and sale of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement will not
be an "investment company" as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940
(an "INVESTMENT COMPANY"). The Company is not controlled by an Investment
Company.

               u. ACKNOWLEDGMENT REGARDING BUYERS' PURCHASE OF SECURITIES. The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the Buyers are acting solely in the
capacity of arm's length purchasers with respect to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Buyer
is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar
capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby and any statement made by any Buyer or any of their respective
representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby is not advice or a recommendation and is merely incidental
to such Buyer's purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to
each Buyer that the Company's decision to enter into this Agreement has been
based solely on the independent evaluation of the Company and its
representatives.

               v. NO INTEGRATED OFFERING. Neither the Company, nor any of its
affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or
indirectly made any offers or sales in any security or solicited any offers to
buy any security under circumstances that would require registration under the
Securities Act of the issuance of the Securities to the Buyers. The issuance of
the Securities to the Buyers will not be integrated with any other issuance of
the Company's securities (past, current or future) for purposes of any
shareholder approval provisions applicable to the Company or its securities.

               w. NO BROKERS. The Company has taken no action which would give
rise to any claim by any Person for brokerage commissions, transaction fees or
similar payments relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby.

               x. GENERAL SOLICITATION. Neither the Company nor any other Person
or entity authorized by the Company to act on its behalf has engaged in a
general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D
of the Securities Act) of investors with respect to offers or sales of the Notes
or the Warrants.

               y. DISCLOSURE. All information relating to or concerning the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries set forth in this Agreement and provided to
the Buyers in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby is true and
correct in all material respects and the Company has not omitted to state any
material fact necessary in order to make the statements made herein or therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. No
event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or any

                                       12

<PAGE>

of its Subsidiaries or its or their business, properties, prospects, operations
or financial conditions, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation,
requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been
so publicly announced or disclosed.

regulations to which each of them is subject, including, without limitation,
Environmental Laws, and will obtain and maintain in effect all licenses,
certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations
necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of
their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that
non-compliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations

to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance,
including, without limitation, the Casualty Policies and the Liability Policies,

<PAGE>

Company or any Subsidiary, provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
need pay any such tax or assessment or claims if the amount, applicability or
validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely
basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a
Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, (or if
the Company is a Non-Reporting Company, in accordance with AAS, or generally
accepted accounting principles, consistently applied) on the books of the

sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the full exercise of
the outstanding Warrants and issuance of the Warrant Shares in connection
therewith (based on the Exercise Price of the Warrants in effect from time to
time) and as otherwise required by the Warrants. Except in the case of
combinations of Common Stock (by any reverse stock split, recapitalization,
reorganization, reclassification or otherwise), the Company shall not reduce the
number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of the
Warrants without the consent of each Buyer.

               h. PATENTS. The Company shall, and cause its Subsidiaries to, use

described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 9 (other than an Event of Default
described in clause (i) of paragraph (g) or described in clause (vi) of
paragraph (g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of
paragraph (g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically
become immediately due and payable.

                    (ii) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, holders of a majority or more in principal amount of the Notes at
the time outstanding may at any time at its or their option, by notice or
notices to the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately
due and payable.

                    (iii) If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a) or
(b) of Section 9 has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes
at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at
its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes
held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 10(a), whether
automatically or by declaration (a "DEFAULT"), such Notes will forthwith mature
and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and
every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which
are hereby waived.

               b. OTHER REMEDIES. If any Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or
have been declared

                                       25

<PAGE>

immediately due and payable under Section 10(a), the holder of any Note at the
time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by
an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for
the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or
for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or
in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or
otherwise.

               c. RESCISSION. At any time after any Notes have been declared due
and payable pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 10(a), the holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to
the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if
(i) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes and all principal of
any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such
declaration, (ii) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of
amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been
cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 14, and (iii) no judgment or
decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to
the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this Section 10(c) will extend to
or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

               d. NO WAIVERS OR ELECTION OF REMEDIES, EXPENSES, ETC. No course
of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any
right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice
such holder's rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by
this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any
other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter
available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the
obligations of the Company under Section 17, the Company will pay to the holder
of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all
costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection
under this Section 10, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees, expenses and disbursements.

               e. DEFAULT INTEREST. During any period a Default or an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, any amount of principal on the Notes

shall pay to the holder thereof in cash as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, at the rate equal to (i) two percent (2%) for the first thirty (30)
days, or fraction thereof, after such Default or Event of Default has occurred
and (ii) thereafter three and one-half percent (3.5%) for each thirty (30) day
period, or fraction thereof, until the earlier of (A) the Notes, including
accrued but unpaid interest thereon, are paid in full and (B) such Default or
Event of Default, if curable under the terms of this Agreement, has been cured.
Such Default Interest shall be paid to the holders of such Notes by the fifth
(5th) day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, if not so
paid, shall be added to the principal amount of such holder's Notes, in which
event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of the Notes.

endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the
registered holder of such Note or his attorney duly authorized in writing and
accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part
thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company's expense
(except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder
thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be
payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in
the form of Exhibit "A." Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest
from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or
dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid
thereon. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $50,000,
provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of
its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than

holder of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

                    (i) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or
is a nominee for, (A) a Buyer, or (B) other Person with a minimum net worth of
at least the then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes so lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated, then such Buyer's or other Person's own unsecured
agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

                    (ii) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation thereof,

the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new
Note dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been
paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid
thereon.

principal and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in

               b. HOME OFFICE PAYMENT. So long as a Buyer or its nominee shall

12(a) or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming
due on such Note for principal and interest in U.S. Dollars and by the method
and at the address specified for such purpose below such Buyer's name on the
signature page hereto, or by such other method or at such other address as such
Buyer shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such
purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any
notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made
concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of
any Note, such Buyer shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably
promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive
office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company
pursuant to Section 12(a).

               c. ALLOCATION OF PREPAYMENT. In the case of each partial
prepayment of the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall
be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as
nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not
theretofore called for prepayment.

               d. MAKE-WHOLE AMOUNT. If (i) the Company, at its option, prepays
at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes, or (ii) the
principal amount of the Notes become due and payable prior to the Maturity Date,
by acceleration or otherwise, then the Company shall pay, in addition to any
other amounts due and owing to the holders of such Notes, the Make-Whole Amount
determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount so
prepaid. Contemporaneous with any such payment, the Company will give each
holder of Notes (i) written notice which shall specify (A) the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes being prepaid, (B) the principal amount of each
Note held by such holder being prepaid, (C) the accrued but unpaid interest
through the prepayment date, including Default Interest, if any, being paid with
respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and (ii) a certificate of the
Chief Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection
with such prepayment, setting forth the details of such computation. The term
"MAKE-WHOLE AMOUNT" means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the
non-discounted interest that would have accrued from the date of such prepayment
to the Maturity Date.

          13. INDEMNIFICATION.

               a. SURVIVAL. All representations, warranties and covenants in
this Agreement and the DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE will survive the Closing. The right
to indemnification, payment of Damages (as defined below) or other remedy based
on such representations, warranties and covenants will not be affected by any
investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable
of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and
delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, with respect to the accuracy or
inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty or covenant.
The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or
warranty, or on the performance of

                                       28

<PAGE>

or compliance with any covenant, shall not affect the right to indemnification,
payment of Damages, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties
and covenants.

               b. INDEMNIFICATION. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless
the Buyers and the Collateral Agent, each of their officers, partners, managers,
and all Persons who control (as such term is defined under the Securities Act or
the Exchange Act) such Buyer or the Collateral Agent (each an "INDEMNIFIED
PARTY" and collectively the "INDEMNIFIED PARTIES"), and will pay to the
Indemnified Parties the amount of, any loss, liability, claim, damage, expense,
including costs of investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys' fees,
(collectively, "DAMAGES") arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection
with (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in
this Agreement or the DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE, the Notes, the Warrants, the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Real Property Security
Agreement or the Security Agreement, (ii) any breach by the Company of any
covenant or obligation of the Company in this Agreement, the Notes, the
Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Real
Property Security Agreement or the Security Agreement, or (iii) any breach of
any representation or warranty made by any Subsidiary in any Guaranty or any
Subsidiary Security Agreement, or (iv) any breach of by any Subsidiary of any
covenant or obligation of such Subsidiary under any Guaranty or any Subsidiary
Security Agreement.

               c. TIME LIMITATIONS. The Company shall have no liability (for
indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any breach of any representation
or warranty, unless on or before the date three (3) years from the Closing Date,
an Indemnified Party notifies the Company of a claim specifying the factual
basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by such
Indemnified Party.

               d. PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION. If a claim is to be made
against the Company under Section 13(b), the Indemnified Party shall give notice
to the Company of such claim. In the event that the Company objects in writing
to any claim for Damages, the Indemnified Party and the Company shall attempt in
good faith to resolve the dispute. The remedies provided in this Section 13 will
not be exclusive of or limit any other remedies that may be available to the
Buyers. When determining Damages under this Section 13, all materiality
qualifiers will be disregarded.

          14. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

               a. REQUIREMENTS. This Agreement, the Notes, the Security
Agreement, any Guaranty, the Subsidiary Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement
and the Real Property Security Agreement may be amended, and the observance of
any term hereof or thereof may be waived (either retroactively or
prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the
holders of a majority of the then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

               b. SOLICITATION OF HOLDERS OF NOTES. The Company will provide
each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it)
with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision
is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision
with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or

                                       29

<PAGE>

consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company
will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or
consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 14 to each holder of
outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and
delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of
Notes.

               c. BINDING EFFECT, ETC. Any amendment or waiver consented to as
provided in this Section 14 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is
binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company
without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment
or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation,
covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived
or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company
and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or
under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such
Note. As used herein, the term "this Agreement" or "the Agreement" and
references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be
amended or supplemented.

               d. NOTES HELD BY COMPANY. Solely for the purpose of determining
whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal
amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver
or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes, or have directed the
taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the
direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal
amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the
Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

          15. EXPENSES.

               a. CURRENT EXPENSES. The Company shall reimburse, or pay
directly, at the Closing up to $30,000 in the aggregate, of which $10,000 is
acknowledged as previously paid, (i) counsels' fees of one firm designated by
ABS SOS-PLUS PARTNERS, LTD. (the "LEAD BUYER") incurred in connection with the
negotiation, preparation, and closing of this Agreement and the other agreements
to be executed in connection herewith (the "DOCUMENTS"), (ii) such counsels'
reasonable out of pocket expenses and (iii) other out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Lead Buyer or the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with
the negotiation of the terms of the transactions contemplated herein and due
diligence of the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective management. When
requested by the Lead Buyer the Company shall pay these fees directly, otherwise
the Company must make immediate payment for reimbursement to the Lead Buyer for
such fees and expenses immediately upon written notice by the Lead Buyer or the
submission of an invoice by the Lead Buyer. If the Company fails to reimburse
the Lead Buyer in full within three (3) business days of the written notice or
submission of invoice by the Lead Buyer, the Company shall pay interest on the
total amount of fees to be reimbursed at a rate of eighteen percent (18%) per
annum. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party shall bear its
own expenses in performing this Agreement.

               b. EXPENSES IN DISPUTE. In the event of any dispute regarding the
subject matter hereunder, the non-prevailing party in any dispute shall be
required to fully

                                       30

<PAGE>

reimburse the prevailing party in any dispute for all of its documented
attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with such dispute,
the outcome of which shall have been determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction.

               c. EXPENSES FOR AMENDMENTS. If the Lead Buyer shall employ
counsel for advice or other representation or shall incur legal or other costs
and expenses in connection with any amendment or modification of this Agreement
or any of the other Documents, then, and in any such event, the counsel fees
arising from such services and all expenses, costs, charges and other fees of
such counsel incurred in connection with or related to any of the events or
actions described above shall be payable by the Company.

               a. GOVERNING LAW. The validity and interpretation of this

inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit or proceeding. Service of

               b. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE
ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON
OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL
ENCOMPASSING OF ANY DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO
THE SUBJECT MATER OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION CONTRACT
CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND
STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL
INDUCEMENT FOR EACH PARTY TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH PARTY
HAS RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT EACH PARTY
WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH
PARTY FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS
LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT SUCH PARTY HAS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS
RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL FOLLOWING SUCH CONSULTATION. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE,
MEANING THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO

                                       31

<PAGE>

WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS AND SUPPLEMENTS OR
MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY
BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

          18. CONVERSION RIGHTS.

               a. GENERAL.

                    (i) CONVERSION EVENTS. Each holder of a Note shall have the
right from time to time, at any time while a Default or an Event of Default has
occurred as is continuing and subject to (A) the ASX granting the ASX Approval
or (B) such conversion or conversions not causing a delisting of the Company
from the ASX, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal
amount and accrued but unpaid interest of the holder's Note into fully paid and
non-assessable common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the
"COMMON STOCK"), or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the
Company into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified
at the Conversion Price (as defined herein).

                    (ii) CONVERSION AMOUNT. The number of shares of Common Stock
to be issued upon each conversion of the holder's Note shall be equal to (i) the
Conversion Amount (as defined below) divided by (ii) the applicable Conversion
Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the
form accompanying this Agreement (the "NOTICE OF CONVERSION"), delivered to the
Company by the holder in accordance with Section 18(d) below; provided that the
Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile (or by other means resulting in,
or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Company before 6:00 p.m.,
New York, New York time on such conversion date (the "CONVERSION DATE"). The
term "CONVERSION AMOUNT" means, with respect to any conversion of the holder's
Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of the holder's Note to be converted
in such conversion plus (2) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such
principal amount at the interest rates provided in the holder's Note to the
Conversion Date plus (3) Default Interest, if any.

                    (iii) CONVERSION LIMIT. In no event, at any time that the
Company has any class of its securities registered under Section 12(b) or
Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, shall the holder be entitled to convert any
portion of the holder's Note in excess of that portion of the holder's Note upon
conversion of which the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common
Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the
unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of
any other security of the Company (including, without limitation, the warrants
issued by the Company pursuant to this Agreement) subject to a limitation on
conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (ii)
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion
of the holder's Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is
being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its
affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For
purposes of this Agreement, beneficial ownership shall be determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and Regulations 13D-G
thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (i) above. The holder

                                       32

<PAGE>

may waive the provisions of this Section 18(a)(iii) as to itself (and solely as
to itself) (i) upon not less than 61 days' prior notice to the Company, and the
provisions of this Section 18(a)(iii) shall continue to apply until such 61st
day (or such later date as may be specified in such notice of waiver) or (ii)
upon the occurrence of any event under Section 18(f)(i). No conversion in
violation of this Section 18(a)(iii), but otherwise in accordance here, shall
affect the status of the Common Stock issued upon such conversion as validly
issued, fully-paid and nonassessable.

               b. DEFINITIONS. The capitalized terms below as used in this
Section 18 shall have the following definitions.

                    (i) BLOOMBERG. The term "BLOOMBERG" shall mean Bloomberg,
L.P. (or any successor to its function of reporting stock prices).

                    (ii) CONVERSION PRICE. The "CONVERSION PRICE" shall be
US$0.15, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

                    (iii) MARKET PRICE. The term "MARKET PRICE" means, as of any
date, (i) the average of the last reported sale prices for the shares of Common
Stock on a national securities exchange which is the principal trading market
for the Common Stock for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding such
date as reported by Bloomberg, or (ii) if no national securities exchange is the
principal trading market for the shares of Common Stock, the average of the last
reported sale prices on the principal trading market for the Common Stock during
the same period as reported by Bloomberg, or (iii) if market value cannot be
calculated as of such date on any of the foregoing bases, the Market Price shall
be the fair market value as reasonably determined in good faith by (x) the Board
of Directors of the Company or, (y) at the option of a majority-in-interest of
the holders of the outstanding Notes, by an independent investment bank of
nationally recognized standing in the valuation of businesses similar to the
business of the Company. The manner of determining the Market Price of the
Common Stock set forth in the foregoing definition shall apply with respect to
any other security in respect of which a determination as to market value must
be made hereunder.

                    (iv) TRADING DAY. The term "TRADING DAY" shall mean any day
on which the Common Stock is traded for any period on the principal securities
exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being
traded.

               c. AUTHORIZED SHARES. The Company covenants that during the
period the conversion right exists, the Company will reserve from its authorized
and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive
rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of
the holder's Note and the other Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement (the
"RESERVED AMOUNT"). If the Company shall issue any securities or make any change
to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock
into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price,
the Company shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter
there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and
reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Notes.
The Company (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer
agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
holder's Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of the holder's Note shall

                                       33

<PAGE>

constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the
duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary
certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the holder's Note.

               d. METHOD OF CONVERSION.

                    (i) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Subject to Section 18(a), the
holder's Note may be converted by the holder in whole or in part, by (i)
submitting to the Company a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile or other
reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to
6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (ii) subject to Section 18(d)(ii),
surrendering the holder's Note at the principal office of the Company.

                    (ii) SURRENDER OF NOTE UPON CONVERSION. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of the holder's Note
in accordance with the terms hereof, the holder shall not be required to
physically surrender the holder's Note to the Company unless the entire unpaid
principal amount of the holder's Note is so converted. The holder and the
Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the
dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably
satisfactory to the holder and the Company, so as not to require physical
surrender of the holder's Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any
dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Company shall be controlling and
determinative in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if any portion of the holder's Note is converted as aforesaid, the holder may
not transfer the holder's Note unless the holder first physically surrenders the
holder's Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and
deliver upon the order of the holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the
holder (upon payment by the holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may
request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of
the holder's Note. The holder and any assignee, by acceptance of the holder's
Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph,
following conversion of a portion of the holder's Note, the unpaid and
unconverted principal amount of the holder's Note represented by the holder's
Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

                    (iii) DELIVERY OF COMMON STOCK UPON CONVERSION. Upon receipt
by the Company from the holder of a facsimile transmission (or other reasonable
means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for
conversion as provided in this Section 18(d), the Company shall issue and
deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the holder
certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within two (2)
business days after such receipt (and, solely in the case of conversion of the
entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of the holder's Note) (such
third business day being hereinafter referred to as the "DEADLINE") in
accordance with the terms hereof and the Purchase Agreement.

                    (iv) OBLIGATION OF COMPANY TO DELIVER COMMON STOCK. Upon
delivery by the holder to the Company of a Notice of Conversion, the holder
shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon
such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and
unpaid interest on the holder's Note shall be reduced to reflect such
conversion, and, unless the Company defaults on its obligations

                                       34

<PAGE>

under this Section 18, all rights with respect to the portion of the holder's
Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive
the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided,
on such conversion. If the holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as
provided herein, the Company's obligation to issue and deliver the certificates
for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the
absence of any action by the holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent
with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any
Person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the
enforcement of any other obligation of the Company to the holder of record, or
any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach
or alleged breach by the holder of any obligation to the Company, and
irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such
obligation of the Company to the holder in connection with such conversion. The
Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion
Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Company before 6:00
p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.

                    (v) DELIVERY OF COMMON STOCK BY ELECTRONIC TRANSFER. In lieu
of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the
Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program,
upon request of the holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in
Section 18(a) and in this Section 18(d), the Company shall use its best efforts
to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable
upon conversion to the holder by crediting the account of holder's Prime Broker
with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.

               e. CONCERNING THE SHARES.

                    (i) LEGEND. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the holder's Note may not be sold or transferred unless (A) such
shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act, or (B) the Company or its transfer agent shall have been
furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance
and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the
effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred
pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (C) such shares are sold or
transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule)
("RULE 144") or (D) such shares are sold or transferred outside the United
States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, or
(E) such shares are transferred to an "affiliate" (as defined in Rule 144) of
the Company who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in
accordance with this Section 18(e). Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such
time as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the holder's Note
have been registered under the Act as contemplated by the Registration Rights
Agreement, otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as
to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately
sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the holder's Note that has not been so included in an effective registration
statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration
statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a
legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:

                                       35

<PAGE>

     THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED
     STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"). THE
     HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES THAT SUCH SECURITIES
     MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE
     CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF
     REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, (C) WITHIN THE UNITED STATES
     AFTER REGISTRATION OR IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM THE
     REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE
     144 THEREUNDER, IF APPLICABLE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
     SECURITIES LAWS, OR (D) WITHIN THE UNITED STATES IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES
     NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE
     STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE HOLDER HAS PRIOR TO SUCH SALE FURNISHED TO
     THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE
     CORPORATION.

                    (ii) REMOVAL OF LEGEND. The legend set forth above shall be
removed and the Company shall issue to the holder a new certificate therefor
free of any transfer legend if (A) the Company or its transfer agent shall have
received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for
opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale
or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act
and the shares are so sold or transferred, (B) such holder provides the Company
or its transfer agent with reasonable assurances that the Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the holder's Note (to the extent such securities are deemed
to have been acquired on the same date) can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or (C)
in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the holder's Note,
such security is registered for sale by the holder under an effective
registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to
Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a
particular date that can then be immediately sold. The Company shall cause its
counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company's transfer agent promptly after
the effective date of any registration statement under the Act registering the
resale of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes if required by
the Company's transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder.
Nothing in the holder's Note shall (x) limit the Company's obligation under the
Registration Rights Agreement or (y) affect in any way the holder's obligations
to comply with applicable prospectus delivery requirements upon the resale of
the securities referred to herein.

                    (iii) AUSTRALIAN STOCK EXCHANGE. Notwithstanding the
foregoing under this Section 18(e), subject to the ASX granting the ASX
Approval, the Company (A) represents and warrants to each Buyer that the shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes pursuant to this Section
18 are freely transferable by each of the Buyers and their respective registered
assigns of the Notes on the ASX pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
ASX, Australian law and United States federal and state law, without, subject to
market conditions, volume limitation or price discount, and (B) covenants to
each of the Buyers and their respective registered assigns of the Notes that the
shares of Common Stock

                                       36

<PAGE>

when issued upon conversion of the Notes pursuant to this Section 18 will be
freely transferable by such Buyers and their respective registered assigns on
the ASX pursuant to the rules and regulations of the ASX, Australian law and
United States federal and state law, without, subject to market conditions,
volume limitation or price discount, and subject to changes in rules and
regulations of the ASX, Australian law and United States federal and state law
after the date hereof.

               f.   EFFECT OF CERTAIN EVENTS.

                    (i) ADJUSTMENT DUE TO MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, ETC. If, at any
time when any of the Notes are issued and outstanding, there shall be any
merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or
other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Company
shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class
or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity, or in case
of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the
Company, then each holder of a Note shall thereafter have the right to receive
upon conversion of the holder's Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and
conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock
immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or
assets which the holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction
had the holder's Note been converted in full immediately prior to such
transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein),
and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the
rights and interests of the holder of the holder's Note to the end that the
provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of
the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the
Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in
relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion
hereof. The Company shall not effect any transaction described in this Section
18(f)(i) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, thirty (30) days
prior written notice (but in any event at least fifteen (15) days prior written
notice) of the record date of the special meeting of stockholders to approve, or
if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger,
consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or other
similar event or sale of assets (during which time the holder shall be entitled
to convert the holder's Note notwithstanding Section 18(a)(iii)) and (b) the
resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Company) assumes by written
instrument the obligations of this Section 18(f)(i). The above provisions shall
similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share
exchanges.

                    (ii) ADJUSTMENT DUE TO DISTRIBUTION. If, at any time when
any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Company shall declare or make any
distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of
Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or
otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Company's shareholders
in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary
(i.e., a spin-off)) (a "DISTRIBUTION"), then each holder of a Note shall be
entitled, upon any conversion of the holder's Note after the date of record for
determining shareholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of
such assets which would have been payable to the holder with respect to the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such holder been the
holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination

                                       37

<PAGE>

of shareholders entitled to such Distribution and the Note shall be deemed
repaid by the amount of the fair value of the Distribution.

                    (iii) ADJUSTMENT DUE TO DILUTIVE ISSUANCE. If, at any time
when any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Company issues or sells, or in
accordance with this Section 18(f) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares
of Common Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per share (before
deduction of reasonable expenses or commissions or underwriting discounts or
allowances in connection therewith) less than the Conversion Price in effect on
the date of such issuance (or deemed issuance) of such shares of Common Stock (a
"DILUTIVE ISSUANCE"), then immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the
Conversion Price will be reduced to the lower of (i) the amount of the
consideration per share received by the Company in such Dilutive Issuance and
(ii) the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance by a fraction, (A) the numerator of
which is an amount equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock
actually outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance, plus (y) the
quotient of the aggregate consideration, calculated as set forth in Section
18(f)(iv) hereof, received by the Company upon such Dilutive Issuance divided by
the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance, and
(B) the denominator of which is the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as defined
below) immediately after the Dilutive Issuance; provided that only one
adjustment will be made for each Dilutive Issuance. The term "COMMON STOCK
DEEMED OUTSTANDING" shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock actually
outstanding (not including shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the
Company), plus (i) pursuant to Section 18(f)(iv)(1) hereof, the maximum total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of Options, as of
the date of such issuance or grant of such Options, if any, and (ii) pursuant to
Section 18(f)(iv)(2) hereof, the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, as of the date
of issuance of such Convertible Securities, if any. No adjustment to the
Conversion Price shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price above
the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

                    (iv) EFFECT ON CONVERSION PRICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. For
purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price, the following will be
applicable:

                         1. ISSUANCE OF RIGHTS OR OPTIONS. If the Company in any
manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options, whether or not
immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock ("CONVERTIBLE
SECURITIES") (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common Stock or
Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as "OPTIONS") and the price
per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options
is less than the Conversion Price on the date of issuance or grant of such
Options, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of all such Options will, as of the date of the issuance or grant
of such Options, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by
the Company for such price per share. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of
such Options" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received
or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or granting of
all such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration,
if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise

                                       38

<PAGE>

of all such Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon
the exercise of such Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such
Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the
maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all
such Options (assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if
applicable). No further adjustment to the Conversion Price will be made upon the
actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options or upon
the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of
such Options.

                         2. ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If the Company
in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not
immediately convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the
exercise of Options) and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable
upon such conversion or exchange is less than the Conversion Price on the date
of issuance, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of
the date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per
share. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for
which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange" is determined
by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company
as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities,
plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable
to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such
Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the
maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or
exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the
Conversion Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

                         3. CHANGE IN OPTION PRICE OR CONVERSION RATE. If there
is a change at any time in (i) the amount of additional consideration payable to
the Company upon the exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange of
any Convertible Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any Convertible
Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (other than
under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the
Conversion Price in effect at the time of such change will be readjusted to the
Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options
or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional
consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold.

                         4. SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK. If the
Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of
Common Stock acquirable hereunder into a greater number of shares, then, after
such date of record for effecting such subdivision, the Conversion Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If
the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization,
reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock
acquirable hereunder into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of
record for effecting such combination, the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.

                                       39

<PAGE>

                         5. TREATMENT OF EXPIRED OPTIONS AND UNEXERCISED
CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. If, in any case, the total number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of any Option or upon conversion or exchange of any
Convertible Securities is not, in fact, issued and the rights to exercise such
Option or to convert or exchange such Convertible Securities shall have expired
or terminated, the Conversion Price then in effect will be readjusted to the
Conversion Price which would have been in effect at the time of such expiration
or termination had such Option or Convertible Securities, to the extent
outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination (other than in
respect of the actual number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise or
conversion thereof), never been issued.

                         6. CALCULATION OF CONSIDERATION RECEIVED. If any Common
Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold for cash,
the consideration received therefor for purposes of the holder's Note will be
the amount received by the Company therefor, before deduction of reasonable
commissions, underwriting discounts or allowances or other reasonable expenses
paid or incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance, grant or sale.
In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold
for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of
the consideration other than cash received by the Company will be the fair value
of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities,
in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the
Market Price thereof as of the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock,
Options or Convertible Securities are issued in connection with any acquisition,
merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation, the
amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such
portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is
attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the
case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities
will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

                         7. EXCEPTIONS TO ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE. No
adjustment to the Conversion Price will be made (A) upon the issuance of shares
of Common Stock or options or warrants to purchase Common Stock to employees of
the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by the Board of
Directors of the Company on or before June 14, 2006, or (B) the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of any of the Warrants.

                    (v) NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price as a result of the events
described in this Section 18(f), the Company, at its expense, shall promptly
compute such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to each holder
of Notes a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing
in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The
Company shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of Notes,
furnish to such holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or
readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) the
number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or
property which at the time would be received upon conversion of such holder's
Note.

               g.   STATUS AS SHAREHOLDER.

                                       40

<PAGE>

                    (i) DEEMED OWNER; RESCISSION. Upon submission of a Notice of
Conversion by a holder of a Note, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than the
shares, if any, which cannot be issued because their issuance would exceed such
holder's allocated portion of the Reserved Amount) shall be deemed converted
into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the holder's rights as a holder of such
converted portion of the holder's Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only
the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any
remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such
holder because of a failure by the Company to comply with the terms of the
holder's Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a holder has not received
certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the third (3rd) business
day after the Deadline with respect to a conversion of any portion of the
holder's Note for any reason, then the holder may elect at such holder's option
to regain the rights of a holder of the holder's Note with respect to such
attempted converted portions of the holder's Note and the Company shall, as soon
as practicable, return such attempted converted Note to the holder or, if the
Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion
of the holder's Note has not been converted. In all cases, the holder shall
retain all of its rights and remedies for the Company's failure to convert the
holder's Note.

                    (ii) COMPENSATION FOR BUY-IN ON FAILURE TO TIMELY DELIVER
CERTIFICATES UPON CONVERSION. In addition to any other rights available to the
holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the holder of a Note
such certificate or certificates pursuant to this Section 18 by the third (3rd)
business day after the Deadline, and if after such third business day after the
Deadline the holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open
market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a
sale by such holder of Common Stock which the holder anticipated receiving upon
such conversion (a "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall (i) pay in cash to the
holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the holder) the
amount by which (x) the holder's total purchase price (including brokerage
commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product
of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such holder
anticipated receiving from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual
sale price of the Common Stock at the time of the sale (including brokerage
commissions, if any) giving rise to such purchase obligation and (ii) at the
option of the holder, either reissue Notes in principal amount equal to the
principal amount of the attempted conversion or deliver to the holder the number
of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely
complied with its delivery requirements under this Section 18. The holder shall
provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the holder
in respect of the Buy-In.

          19.  MISCELLANEOUS.

               a. HEADINGS. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience

Agreement 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 to such statute or
rule of law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under
any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision
hereof.

               e. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns.
Neither the Company nor

                                       42

<PAGE>

any Buyer shall assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any Buyer may assign its rights hereunder to any Person that purchases any of
the Securities in a private transaction from such Buyer or to any of its
Affiliates without the consent of the Company.

               f. THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and
assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced
by, any other Person.

               g. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each party shall do and perform, or cause
to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute
and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents,
as the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.

               h. NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The language used in this Agreement
will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual
intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

               i. REMEDIES. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its
obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyers by vitiating the
intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the
Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations
under this Agreement will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or
threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement, that the
Buyers shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or
in equity, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any
breach of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions
hereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or
other security being required.

               j. NONLIABILITY OF THE BUYERS. The relationship between the
Company and the Buyers is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of the
Company with a purchaser of its securities. The Buyers neither undertake nor
assume any responsibility or duty to the Company to review, inspect, supervise,
pass judgment upon, or inform the Company of any matter in connection with any
phase of the Company's business, operations, or condition, financial or
otherwise. The Company shall rely entirely upon its own judgment with respect to
such matters, and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment, or
information supplied to the Company by the Buyers, or any representative or
agent of the Buyers, in connection with any such matter is for the protection of
the Buyers, and neither the Company nor any third party is entitled to rely
thereon.

               k. WAIVER OF STAY, EXTENSION OR USURY LAWS. The Company covenants
(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist
upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim, and shall resist any and all
efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or
extension law or any usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the
Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the
Notes as contemplated herein and therein, wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, or which may effect the covenants or the performance of this
Agreement; and

                                       43

<PAGE>

(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) the Company hereby expressly waives
all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it shall not hinder,
delay or impede the execution of power herein granted to the holders of the
Notes, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted. All agreements between the Company and holders of
the Notes, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or
oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason or demand
or acceleration of the final maturity date of the Notes or prepayment or
otherwise, shall the interest contracted for (or any original issue discount
that would be determined to be interest), charged, received, paid or agreed to
be paid to holders exceed the maximum amount permissible under the laws of the
State of New York (hereinafter the "APPLICABLE LAW"). If, from any circumstances
whatsoever, interest (or any original issue discount that would be determined to
be interest) would otherwise be payable to any holder of the Notes in excess of
the maximum amount permissible under Applicable Law, the interest payable to
such holder shall be reduced to the maximum amount permissible under Applicable
Law, and if from any circumstances such holder shall ever receive anything
deemed interest by the Applicable Law in excess of the maximum amount
permissible under the Applicable Law, an amount equal to the excessive interest
shall be applied to the reduction of the principal hereof and not to the payment
of interest, or if such excessive amount of interest exceeds the unpaid
principal balance of principal hereof, such excess shall be refunded to the
Company as applicable. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the holders of
the Notes shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized,
prorated, allocated and spread throughout full period (including any renewal or
extension) until payment in full of the principal so that the interest hereon
for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permissible under the
Applicable Law.

               l. OBLIGATIONS SEVERAL NOT JOINT. The obligations of each Buyer
under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other
Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the
obligations of any other Buyer under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein,
and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute
the Buyers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind
of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in
concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently
protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising
out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be
joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Buyer has
been represented by, or has had the opportunity to be represented by, its own
separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of this Agreement, the
Notes, the Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Pledge Agreement,
the Real Property Security Agreement, the Security Agreement, each Guaranty, the
Subsidiary Security Agreement and any other documents contemplated by any of the
foregoing.

               m. COUNTERPARTS; SIGNATURES BY FACSIMILE. This Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original
but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the
other party. This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the
other party hereto by facsimile transmission of a copy of this Agreement bearing
the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement.

for purposes of definitions related to such provisions.

          2. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. As an inducement for the Secured

interest in, a continuing first lien upon, an unqualified right to possession

filings contemplated therein have been duly authorized by all necessary action
on the part of the Company and no further action is required by the Company.

enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally.

                                        4

<PAGE>

               b. The Company represents and warrants that it has no place of
business or offices where its respective books of account and records are kept
(other than temporarily at the offices of its attorneys or accountants) or
places where the Collateral is stored or located, except as set forth on
SCHEDULE A attached hereto;

               c. The Company is the sole owner of the Collateral (except for
non-exclusive licenses granted by the Company in the ordinary course of
business), free and clear of any liens, security interests, encumbrances, rights
or claims, except as set forth on SCHEDULE A, and is fully authorized to grant
the Security Interest in and to pledge the Collateral. There is not on file in
any governmental or regulatory authority, agency or recording office an
effective financing statement, security agreement, license or transfer or any
notice of any of the foregoing (other than those that have been filed in favor
of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement) covering or affecting any of
the Collateral. So long as this Agreement shall be in effect, without the prior
consent of the Collateral Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, the Company shall not execute and shall not knowingly permit to be on
file in any such office or agency any such financing statement or other document
or instrument (except to the extent filed or recorded in favor of the Secured
Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement).

               d. No part of the Collateral or rights in connection therewith
has been judged, by any governmental body with proper jurisdiction, to be
invalid or unenforceable. No written claim has been received alleging the
Company's use of any Collateral violates the rights of any third party. There
has been no adverse decision to the Company's claim of ownership rights in or
exclusive rights to use the Collateral in any jurisdiction or to the Company's
right to keep and maintain such Collateral in full force and effect, and there
is no proceeding involving said rights pending or threatened before any court,
judicial body, administrative or regulatory agency, arbitrator or other
governmental authority.

               e. The Company shall at all times maintain its books of account
and records relating to the Collateral at its principal place of business and
its Collateral at the locations set forth on SCHEDULE A attached hereto and may
not relocate such books of account and records or tangible Collateral unless it
delivers to the Secured Parties at least thirty (30) days prior to such
relocation (i) written notice of such relocation and the new location thereof
(which must be within the United States) and (ii) evidence that appropriate
financing statements and other necessary documents have been filed and recorded
and other steps have been taken to perfect the Security Interest to create in
favor of the Secured Parties valid, perfected and continuing first priority
liens in the Collateral.

               f. This Agreement creates in favor of the Secured Parties a valid
security interest in the Collateral securing the payment and performance of the
Obligations and, upon making the filings described in the immediately following
sentence, a perfected first priority security interest in such Collateral and,
to the extent that it can be perfected through such filings, the Intellectual
Property. Except for the filing of financing statements on Form-1 under the UCC
with the jurisdictions indicated on SCHEDULE A, attached hereto, no
authorization or approval of or filing with or notice to any governmental
authority or regulatory body is required either (i) for the grant by the Company
of, or the effectiveness of, the Security Interest granted hereby or for the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company or (ii) for
the perfection of, or exercise by the Secured Parties of, their rights and
remedies hereunder.

                                        5

<PAGE>

               g. Prior to or after the closing of the Note Purchase Agreement,
the Secured Parties, through the Collateral Agent, may file or cause to be filed
one or more executed UCC financing statements on Form-1 with respect to the
Security Interest with the appropriate jurisdictions. Furthermore, upon request
of the Collateral Agent, the Company shall execute and deliver any and all
agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably request to evidence the Secured Parties' security interest in the
Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of the Company
relating thereto or represented thereby.

               h. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does
not conflict with or cause a material breach or default, or an event that with
or without the passage of time or notice, shall constitute a material breach or
default, under any agreement to which the Company is a party or by which the
Company is bound. No consent (including, without limitation, from stockholders
or creditors of the Company) is required for the Company to enter into and
perform its obligations hereunder.

               i. The Company shall at all times safeguard, protect and maintain
the Collateral for the account of the Secured Parties until this Agreement and
the Security Interest hereunder shall terminate pursuant to Section 12. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall pay all governmental
fees and taxes necessary to maintain the Collateral and the Security Interest
hereunder, and the Company shall obtain and furnish to the Secured Parties from
time to time, upon demand, such releases and/or subordinations of claims and
liens which may be required to maintain the priority of the Security Interest
hereunder.

               j. The Company will not transfer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber,
license, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, other than in the
ordinary course of business, without the prior written consent of the Secured
Parties.

               k. The Company shall, within ten (10) days of obtaining knowledge
thereof, advise the Secured Parties promptly, in sufficient detail, of any
substantial change in the Collateral other than in the ordinary course of
business, and of the occurrence of any event which would have a material adverse
effect on the value of the Collateral or on the Secured Parties' security
interest therein.

               l. The Company shall promptly execute and deliver to the Secured
Parties such further deeds, mortgages, assignments, security agreements,
financing statements or other instruments, documents, certificates and
assurances and take such further action as the Collateral Agent may from time to
time request and may in its sole discretion deem necessary to perfect, protect
or enforce the Security Interest.

               m. Subject to a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable
to the Collateral Agent and the Company, the Company shall permit the Collateral
Agent and its representatives and agents to inspect the Collateral at any time
and to make copies of records pertaining to the Collateral as may be requested
by the Collateral Agent from time to time.

               n. The Company will take all steps reasonably necessary to
diligently pursue and seek to preserve, enforce and collect any rights, claims,
causes of action and accounts receivable in respect of the Collateral.

                                        6

<PAGE>

               o. The Company shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in
sufficient detail upon becoming aware of any attachment, garnishment, execution
or other legal process levied against any Collateral and of any other
information received by the Company that may materially affect the value of the
Collateral, the Security Interest or the rights and remedies of the Secured
Parties hereunder.

               p. All information supplied to the Secured Parties or the
Collateral Agent by or on behalf of the Company with respect to the Collateral
is accurate and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof, and all
information supplied after the date hereof to the Secured Parties shall be
accurate in all material respects.

               q. SCHEDULE B attached hereto includes all Patents and Patent
Licenses, if any, owned by the Company in its own name as of the date hereof.
SCHEDULE B hereto includes all Trademarks and Trademark Licenses, if any, owned
by the Company in its own name as of the date hereof. SCHEDULE B hereto includes
all Copyrights and Copyright Licenses, if any, owned by the Company in its own
name as of the date hereof. All of the Intellectual Property is valid,
subsisting, unexpired, enforceable and has not been abandoned. Except as set
forth in SCHEDULE B, none of such Intellectual Property is the subject of any
licensing or franchise agreement as of the date of this Agreement. No holding,
decision or judgment has been rendered by any governmental authority which would
limit, cancel or question the validity of any Intellectual Property. No action
or proceeding is pending (i) seeking to limit, cancel or question the validity
of any of the Intellectual Property, or (ii) which, if adversely determined,
would have a material adverse effect on the value of any of the Intellectual
Property. The Company has used and will continue to use for the duration of this
Agreement, proper statutory notice in connection with its use of the
Intellectual Property and consistent standards of quality in products leased or
sold under the Intellectual Property.

               r. With respect to any Intellectual Property:

                    i. such Intellectual Property is subsisting and the rights
in connection with such Intellectual Property have not been adjudged invalid or
unenforceable, in whole or in part;

                    ii. the rights in connection with such Intellectual Property
are valid and enforceable;

                    iii. the Company has made all necessary filings and
recordations necessary to protect its interest in such Intellectual Property,
including, without limitation, recordations of all of its interests in the
Patents, Patent Licenses, Trademarks and Trademark Licenses in the United States
Patent and Trademark Office and its claims to the Copyrights and Copyright
Licenses in the United States Copyright Office and similar government offices of
foreign countries;

                    iv. other than as set forth in SCHEDULE B, the Company is
the exclusive owner of the entire and unencumbered right, title and interest in
and to such Intellectual Property and no claim has been made that the use of
such Intellectual Property infringes on the asserted rights of any third party;
and

                                        7

<PAGE>

                    v. the Company has performed and will continue to perform
all acts and has paid all required fees and taxes to maintain its rights with
respect to each and every item of Intellectual Property in full force and
effect.

               s. The Company shall:

                    i. except with respect to any Trademark or Copyright that
the Company shall reasonably determine is of negligible economic value to the
Company, maintain each Trademark and Copyright in full force free from any claim
of abandonment for non-use, maintain as in the past the quality of products and
services offered under such Trademark or Copyright; employ such Trademark or
Copyright with the appropriate notice of registration; not adopt or use any mark
which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of such Trademark or
Copyright unless the Secured Parties shall obtain a perfected security interest
in such mark pursuant to this Agreement; and not (and not permit any licensee or
sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any
Trademark or Copyright may become invalidated;

                    ii. not, except with respect to any Patent that it shall
reasonably determine is of negligible economic value to it, do any act, or omit
to do any act, whereby any Patent may become abandoned; and

                    iii. notify the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties
immediately if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or
registration relating to any Patent, Trademark or Copyright may become
abandoned, or of any material adverse determination or development (including,
without limitation, the institution of, or any such determination or development
in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United
States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in the United States) regarding
its ownership of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright or its right to register the
same or to keep and maintain the same.

               t. Whenever the Company, either by itself or through any agent,
employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration
of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or similar government
office of any foreign country, or acquire rights to any new Patent, Trademark or
Copyright whether or not registered, report such filing to the Collateral Agent
within five (5) business days after the last day of the fiscal quarter in which
such filing occurs.

               u. The Company shall take all reasonable and necessary steps,
including, without limitation, in any proceeding before the United States Patent
and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, to maintain and
pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to
maintain each registration of the Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights, including,
without limitation, filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and
affidavits of incontestability.

               v. In the event that any Patent, Trademark or Copyright included
in the Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third
party, the Company

                                        8

<PAGE>

shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent after it learns thereof and shall,
unless it shall reasonably determine that such Patent, Trademark or Copyright is
of negligible economic value to it, which determination it shall promptly report
to the Collateral Agent: promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or
dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all
damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, or take such other
actions as it shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to
protect such Patent, Trademark or Copyright. If the Company lacks the financial
resources to comply with this Section 3(v), the Company shall so notify the
Collateral Agent and shall cooperate fully with any enforcement action
undertaken by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Company.

          4. DEFAULTS. The occurrence of an Event of Default as defined in the
Note Purchase Agreement shall be an "EVENTS OF DEFAULT."

          5. DUTY TO HOLD IN TRUST. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
and at any time thereafter, the Company shall, upon receipt by it of any
revenue, income or other sums subject to the Security Interest, whether payable
pursuant to the Notes or otherwise, or of any check, draft, note, trade
acceptance or other instrument evidencing an obligation to pay any such sum,
hold the same in trust for the Secured Parties and shall forthwith endorse and
transfer any such sums or instruments, or both, to the Secured Parties for
application to the satisfaction of the Obligations.

          6. THE COLLATERAL AGENT; RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. Each of the
Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent to act on its
behalf hereunder and under any other document executed in connection herewith,
and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf to
exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms
hereof or thereof, and the Company shall not have rights as a third party
beneficiary of any such provision in this Section 6. The Collateral Agent is
authorized to act, in its sole discretion, on behalf of the Secured Parties as
described herein. Upon occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default and at
any time thereafter, the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties)
shall have the right to exercise (on behalf of the Secured Parties) all of the
remedies conferred to the Secured Parties hereunder and under the Notes, and the
Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall have all the rights
and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and/or any other applicable law
(including the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction in which any
Collateral is then subject). Without limitation, the Collateral Agent (on behalf
of the Secured Parties) shall have the following rights and powers:

               a. to have a third party custodian take possession of the
Collateral and, for that purpose, enter, with the aid and assistance of any
person, any premises where the Collateral, or any part thereof, is or may be
placed and remove the same, and the Company shall assemble the Collateral and
make it available to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties
at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at the
Company's premises or elsewhere, and make available to the Collateral Agent,
without rent, all of the Company's respective premises and facilities for the
purpose of the Collateral Agent taking possession of, removing or putting the
Collateral in saleable or disposable form; and

               b. to operate the business of the Company using the Collateral
and shall have the right to assign, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of and
deliver all or any part of the

                                        9

<PAGE>

Collateral, at public or private sale or otherwise, either with or without
special conditions or stipulations, for cash or on credit or for future
delivery, in such parcel or parcels and at such time or times and at such place
or places, and upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may deem
commercially reasonable, all without (except as shall be required by applicable
statute and cannot be waived) advertisement or demand upon or notice to the
Company or right of redemption of the Company, which are hereby expressly
waived. Upon each such sale, lease, assignment or other transfer of Collateral,
the Collateral Agent may, unless prohibited by applicable law which cannot be
waived, purchase all or any part of the Collateral being sold, free from and
discharged of all trusts, claims, right of redemption and equities of the
Company, which are hereby waived and released.

          7. INDEMNIFICATION OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT. Neither the Collateral
Agent nor any of its affiliates or representatives will be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under this Agreement in good faith
and believed by it or them to be within the discretion or power conferred upon
it or them by this Agreement or be responsible for the consequences of any error
of judgment (except for fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct). Unless
indemnified to its satisfaction against loss, cost, liability and expense, the
Collateral Agent may not be compelled to do any act under this Agreement or to
take any action toward the execution or enforcement of the powers created under
this Agreement or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of this Agreement.
If the Collateral Agent requests instructions from Secured Parties with respect
to any act or action in connection with this Agreement, then the Collateral
Agent is entitled to refrain (without incurring any liability to anyone by so
refraining) from that act or action unless and until it has received
instructions. In no event, however, may the Collateral Agent or any of its
representatives be required to take any action that it or they determine could
incur for it or them criminal or onerous civil liability. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, no Secured Party has any right of action against
the Collateral Agent as a result of the Collateral Agent's acting or refraining
from acting under this Agreement in accordance with instructions of the Secured
Parties. EACH SECURED PARTY (IN PROPORTION TO THE THEN-OUSTANDING PRINCIPAL
AMOUNT OF NOTES) SHALL INDEMNIFY THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES
AND HOLD THEM HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS,
LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, REASONABLE
EXPENSES, AND REASONABLE DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER THAT MAY
BE IMPOSED ON, ASSERTED AGAINST, OR INCURRED BY THEM IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR
ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED BY THEM UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT.

          8. APPLICATIONS OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of any such sale, lease or
other disposition of the Collateral hereunder shall be applied first, to the
expenses of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale,
selling, and the like (including, without limitation, any taxes, fees and other
costs incurred in connection therewith) of the Collateral, to the reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by the Secured Parties in enforcing its
rights hereunder and in connection with collecting, storing and disposing of the
Collateral, and then to satisfaction of the Obligations, and to the payment of
any other amounts required by applicable law, after which the Secured Parties
shall pay to the Company any surplus proceeds. If, upon the sale, license or
other disposition of the Collateral, the proceeds thereof are insufficient to
pay all amounts to which the Secured Parties are legally entitled, (i) then the
proceeds shall be allocated among the Secured Parties in proportion to the
amount outstanding under each Note, and (ii) the Company

                                       10

<PAGE>

will be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon, at the
Default Rate, as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement, and the reasonable fees
of any attorneys employed by the Secured Parties to collect such deficiency. To
the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company waives all claims, damages
and demands against the Secured Parties arising out of the repossession,
removal, retention or sale of the Collateral.

          9. COSTS AND EXPENSES. The Company agrees to pay all out-of-pocket
fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any filing required
hereunder, including without limitation, any financing statements, continuation
statements, partial releases and/or termination statements related thereto or
any expenses of any searches reasonably required by the Secured Parties. The
Company shall also pay all other claims and charges which would reasonably be
expected to prejudice, imperil or otherwise affect the Collateral or the
Security Interest therein. Each party shall bear its own expenses with respect
to this Agreement, except that upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event
of Default, the Company shall upon demand, pay to the Collateral Agent the
amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and
expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which the Collateral
Agent incurs in connection with (a) the enforcement of this Agreement, (b) the
custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any of the Collateral, or (c) the exercise or enforcement of
any of the rights of the Secured Parties under the Notes. Until so paid, any
fees payable hereunder shall be added to the principal amount of the Notes and
shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

          10. RESPONSIBILITY FOR COLLATERAL. The Company assumes all liabilities
and responsibility in connection with all Collateral, and the obligations of the
Company hereunder or under the Notes shall in no way be affected or diminished
by reason of the loss, destruction, damage or theft of any of the Collateral or
its unavailability for any reason.

          11. SECURITY INTEREST ABSOLUTE. All rights of the Secured Parties and
all Obligations of the Company hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional,
regardless of: (a) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or
performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any
other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Notes or
any other agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing; (b) any
exchange, release or nonperfection of any of the Collateral, or any release or
amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other collateral for, or
any guaranty, or any other security, for all or any of the Obligations; or (c)
any action by the Secured Parties to obtain, adjust, settle and cancel in its
sole discretion any insurance claims or matters made or arising in connection
with the Collateral. The Company expressly waives presentment, protest and
notice of protest. In the event that at any time any transfer of any Collateral
or any payment received by the Secured Parties hereunder shall be deemed by
final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable
preference or fraudulent conveyance under the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of
the United States, or shall be deemed to be otherwise due to any party other
than the Secured Parties, then, in any such event, the Company's obligations
hereunder shall survive cancellation of this Agreement, and shall not be
discharged or satisfied by any prior payment thereof and/or cancellation of this
Agreement, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable in
accordance with the terms and provisions hereof. The Company waives all right to
require the Secured Parties to proceed against any other person or to apply any

                                       11

<PAGE>

Collateral which the Secured Parties may hold at any time, or to marshal assets,
or to pursue any other remedy.

          12. TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the Security Interest shall
terminate on the date on which all payments under the Notes have been
indefeasibly made in full and all other Obligations have been indefeasibly paid.
Upon such termination, the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent, at the
request and at the expense of the Company, will join in executing any
termination statement with respect to any financing statement executed and filed
pursuant to this Agreement.

          13. POWER OF ATTORNEY; FURTHER ASSURANCES.

               a. The Company authorizes the Collateral Agent, as agent for the
Secured Parties, and does hereby make, constitute and appoint it, and its
respective officers, agents, successors or assigns with full power of
substitution, as the Company's true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with power, in
its own name or in the name of the Company, to, after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) endorse any notes, checks, drafts,
money orders, or other instruments of payment (including payments payable under
or in respect of any policy of insurance) in respect of the Collateral that may
come into possession of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Parties; (ii) to
sign and endorse any UCC financing statement or any invoice, freight or express
bill, bill of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors,
assignments, verifications and notices in connection with accounts, and other
documents relating to the Collateral; (iii) to pay or discharge taxes, liens,
security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on or
threatened against the Collateral; (iv) to demand, collect, receipt for,
compromise, settle and sue for monies due in respect of the Collateral; and (v)
generally, to do, at the option of the Collateral Agent, and at the Company's
expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the
Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve and realize upon the
Collateral and the Security Interest granted therein in order to effect the
intent of this Agreement and the Notes, all as fully and effectually as the
Company might or could do; and the Company hereby ratifies all that said
attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of
attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for the term of
this Agreement and thereafter as long as any of the Obligations shall be
outstanding.

               b. On a continuing basis, the Company will cooperate in good
faith with the Collateral Agent to make, execute, acknowledge, deliver, file and
record, as the case may be, in the proper filing and recording places in any
applicable jurisdiction, all such instruments, and take all such action as may
reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable, or as reasonably requested by the
Collateral Agent, to perfect the Security Interest granted hereunder and
otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement, or for
assuring and confirming to the Collateral Agent the grant or perfection of a
security interest in all the Collateral.

               c. The Company hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent
as the Company's attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of
the Company and in the name of the Company, from time to time in the Collateral
Agent's discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the
Collateral Agent may deem necessary or

                                       12

<PAGE>

advisable in order to perfect the Security Interest, including the filing, in
its sole discretion, of one or more financing or continuation statements and
amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of
the Company where permitted by law.

          14. NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing, with copies to all the other parties hereto, and

hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral or by the guarantee,
endorsement or property of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity,
then the Collateral Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to
pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take any other action with respect
thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of the Secured Parties'
rights and remedies hereunder.

                                       13

<PAGE>

          16. MISCELLANEOUS.

               a. No course of dealing between the Company, the Collateral Agent
and any Secured Parties, nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in
exercising, on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Parties, any
right, power or privilege hereunder or under the Notes shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

               b. All of the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties with
respect to the Collateral, whether established hereby or by the Notes or by any
other agreements, instruments or documents or by law shall be cumulative and may
be exercised singly or concurrently.

               c. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and is intended to supersede all prior
negotiations, understandings and agreements with respect thereto, including the
prior Agreement. Any term of this Agreement may be terminated or amended and the
observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a
particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with written
consent of the Company and the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the
then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes. Any termination, amendment or
waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each
holder of the Notes, each future holder of the Notes, their successors and
assigns, and the Company.

               d. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to
be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction for any reason,
unless such provision is narrowed by judicial construction, this Agreement
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be construed as if such invalid, prohibited or
unenforceable provision had been more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid,
prohibited or unenforceable. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of
this Agreement is held to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective to
the extent of such invalidity, prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining portion of such provision or the other provisions of
this Agreement and without affecting the validity or enforceability of such
provision or the other provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

               e. No waiver of any breach or default or any right under this
Agreement shall be considered valid unless in writing and signed by the party
giving such waiver, and no such waiver shall be deemed a waiver of any
subsequent breach or default or right, whether of the same or similar nature or
otherwise.

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

               g. Each party shall take such further action and execute and
deliver such further documents as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement.

                                       14

<PAGE>

               h. The validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be
governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the
State of New York. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to the exclusive
jurisdiction and venue of the Courts of the State of New York, located in the
City and County of New York and the United States District Court, Southern
District, for the State of New York with respect to any matter relating to this
Agreement and performance of the parties' obligations hereunder, the documents
and instruments executed and delivered concurrently herewith or pursuant hereto
and performance of the parties' obligations thereunder and each of the parties
hereto hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and shall
subject itself to such personal jurisdiction. Any action, suit or proceeding
relating to such matters shall be commenced, pursued, defended and resolved only
in such courts and any appropriate appellate court having jurisdiction to hear
an appeal from any judgment entered in such courts. The parties irrevocably
waive the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit or
proceeding. Service of process in any action, suit or proceeding relating to
such matters may be made and served within or outside the State of New York by
registered or certified mail to the parties and their representatives at their
respective addresses specified in Section 14 hereof, provided that a reasonable
time, not less than thirty (30) days, is allowed for response. Service of
process may also be made in such other manner as may be permissible under the
applicable court rules.

               i. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS
TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF
THIS AGREEMENT. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF
ANY DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATER
OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS,
BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY
HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH PARTY TO
ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH PARTY HAS RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN
ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT EACH PARTY WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS
WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY FURTHER WARRANTS AND
REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT
SUCH PARTY HAS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL
FOLLOWING SUCH CONSULTATION. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT,
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER
ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS,
RENEWALS AND SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE
COURT.

               j. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of
which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event
that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall
create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf
such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such
facsimile signature were the original thereof.
