undertaken in reliance upon the exemption from registration under Rule 506 of
Regulation D under the Act. Each Purchasers hereby represents and warrants to
the Company that: 

(a) The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares solely for
investment purposes and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with,
any distribution thereof or with any present intention of distributing or
selling any of the Shares, except in accordance with applicable provisions of
the Act. 

(b) The Purchaser will hold the Shares subject to all of the
applicable provisions of the Act, and the Purchaser will not at any time make
any sale, transfer, or other disposition of the Shares in contravention of said
Act (references herein to the Act shall include the rules and regulations
thereunder). 

(c) The sale of the Shares to Purchasers is being made without
any public solicitation or advertisements. 

(d) The Purchaser or beneficial purchaser, if any, for whom
the Purchaser is acting as trustee or agent has not received, nor has it
requested, nor does it have any need to receive, any offering memorandum or any
other document describing the business and affairs of the Company (other than
this Agreement), nor has any document been prepared for delivery to, or review
by, prospective purchasers in order to assist them in making an investment
decision in respect of the Shares. 

(e) The representations and warranties set forth in Schedule A
- U.S. Accredited Investor Certificate attached hereto are true and correct as
at the Closing Date and that the Purchaser is an Accredited Investor and that it

(f) The Purchaser has been independently advised as to the
restrictions with respect to trading in the Purchaser's Shares imposed by
applicable securities legislation in the jurisdiction in which it resides,
confirms that no representation has been made to it by or on behalf of the
Company with respect thereto, acknowledges that it is aware of the

Purchaser's Shares have not and may not be registered under the Act, or the

registration under the Act provided by Section 4(2) thereof and Rule 506
thereunder and exemptions from registration under applicable state securities
laws; and (ii) all such sales are being made in transactions not involving any
public offering within the meaning of the Act. Accordingly, the Purchaser's

financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Purchaser's Shares and it is able to bear the

Section 6. Representations and Warranties of the Company.

The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Purchasers
as follows, it being understood that each reference to the Company hereafter
with respect to each such representation and warranty shall pertain to the
Company and any direct and indirect subsidiaries: 

6.1 Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of the
Company consists of 100 million shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share. On the date of Closing (the "Closing Date"), there will be
19,143,615 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. The number of shares
and type of all authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company,
and all shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Company's various
option and incentive plans, are specified in the SEC Reports. Except as
specified in the SEC Reports, no securities of the Company are entitled to preemptive or similar rights, and no Person has any right of first refusal,
preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Except as specified
in the SEC Reports, there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to
subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or
securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or
giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common
Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the
Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of
Common Stock, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of
Common Stock. The issue and 

5 

sale of the Shares will not, immediately or
with the passage of time, obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock
or other securities to any Person (other than the Investors) and will not result
in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise,
conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities. 

6.2 Subsidiaries. The Company has no direct or indirect
Subsidiaries other than as specified in the SEC Reports. The Company owns,
directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock of each Subsidiary free and
clear of any and all Liens, and all the issued and outstanding shares of capital
stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable
and free of preemptive and similar rights. 

6.3 Organization and Qualification. The Company and each
Subsidiary are duly incorporated or otherwise organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or
organization (as applicable), with the requisite power and authority to own and
use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently
conducted. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any of the
provisions of its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or
other organizational or charter documents. The Company and each Subsidiary are
duly qualified to conduct its respective businesses and are in good standing as
a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature
of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification
necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as
the case may be, could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this
Agreement, the term "Material Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect
with respect to the Company, taken as a whole, or any change or effect that
adversely, or is reasonably expected to adversely, affect the ability of the
Company to maintain its current business operations or to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any material respect. 

6.4 Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by each of the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its
obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery of each of the Transaction
Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the
part of the Company and no further action is required by the Company in
connection therewith. Each Transaction Document has been (or upon delivery will
have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with
the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the
Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as
such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors' rights and remedies or by
other equitable principles of general application. 

6.5 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of
the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of
the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or
violate any provision of the Company's or any Subsidiary's certificate or
articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents,
or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or
lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any
rights of 

6 

termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or
without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt
or other instrument (evidencing a Company or Subsidiary debt or otherwise) or
other understanding to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by
which any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or
affected, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental
authority to which the Company or a Subsidiary is subject (including federal and
state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the
Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected; except in the case of each of
clauses (ii) and (iii), such as could not, individually or in the aggregate,
have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

6.6 Filings, Consents and Approvals. The Company is not
required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any
notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal,
state, local or other governmental authority or other Person in connection with
the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction

authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the Transaction
Documents, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free

capital stock the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement in
order to issue the Shares.

failure to so have could, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably

the Company's fair saleable value of its assets exceeds the amount that will be
required to be paid on or in respect of the Company's 

9 

existing debts and other liabilities (including known
contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company's assets do not
constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current
fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its
capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the
business conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and
capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company,
together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all
of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would
be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts
are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its
ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and
amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). 

6.19 Certain Fees. Except as described in Schedule 6.19, no
brokerage or finder's fees or commissions are or will be payable by the Company

commissions owed by an Investor pursuant to written agreements executed by such

Investor) made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated
in this Section that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement. 

6.20 Certain Registration Matters. Assuming the accuracy of
the Investors' representations and warranties, no registration under the Act is
required for the offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Investors
under the Transaction Documents. The Company is eligible to register its Common
Stock for resale by the Investors under Form SB-2 promulgated under the Act.
Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company has not granted or agreed to
grant to any Person any rights (including "piggy-back" registration rights) to
have any securities of the Company registered with the SEC or any other
governmental authority that have not been satisfied. 

6.21 Listing and Maintenance Requirements. Except as specified
in the SEC Reports, the Company has not, in the two years preceding the date
hereof, received notice from any Trading Market to the effect that the Company
is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements thereof. The
Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable
future continue to be, in compliance with the listing and maintenance
requirements for continued listing of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on
which the Common Stock is currently listed or quoted. The issuance and sale of
the Shares under the Transaction Documents does not contravene the rules and
regulations of the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is currently listed
or quoted, and no approval of the shareholders of the Company thereunder is
required for the Company to issue and deliver to the Investors the Shares
contemplated by Transaction Documents. 

6.22 Investment Company. The Company is not, and is not an
Affiliate of, and immediately following the Closing will not have become, an
"investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended. 

10 

6.23 Application of Takeover Protections. The Company has
taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control
share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution
under a rights agreement) or other similar anti--takeover provision under the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the
laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the
Investors as a result of the Investors and the Company fulfilling their
obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents,
including without limitation the Company's issuance of the Shares and the
Investors' ownership of the Shares. 

6.24 No Additional Agreements. The Company does not have any
agreement or understanding with any Investor with respect to the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents other than as specified in the
Transaction Documents. 

6.25 Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither it nor any
Person acting on its behalf has provided any Investor or its respective agents
or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material,
non-public information except insofar as the existence and terms of the proposed
transactions hereunder may constitute such information. The Company understands
and confirms that the Investors will rely on the foregoing representations and
covenants in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosure
provided to the Investors regarding the Company, its business and the
transactions contemplated hereby, furnished by or on behalf of the Company
(including the Company's representations and warranties set forth in this
Agreement) are true and correct and do not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.

statements of the Company reflect less than $7 million of After-Tax Net Income
for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006 (the "First Guaranteed NI"),
Chang Yu agrees to transfer to the Purchasers on a pro rata basis for no
purchase price that certain number of shares of the Company's Common Stock which
represent 5% of the total Common Stock that Chang Yu owns directly or indirectly
(the "5% Make Good Shares") as of August 30, 2005, i.e., 544,096
shares of the Company's Common Stock. In the event the consolidated financial
statements of the Company reflect between $7 million and $7.5 million of
After-Tax Net Income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006 (the "Second
Guaranteed NI"), Chang Yu agrees to transfer to the Purchasers on a pro
rata basis for no purchase price that certain number of shares of the Company's
Common Stock which represent 2.5% of the total Common Stock that Chang Yu owns
directly or indirectly as of August 30, 2005 (the "2.5% Make Good
Shares"), i.e., 272,048 shares of the Company's Common Stock. In the event
the consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect greater than $7.5
million of After-Tax Net Income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, no
transfer shall be required by Chang Yu to the Purchasers under this Section.
Nonrecurring expenses of the Company shall not be deducted from After-Tax Net
Income for the purposes of calculating the First Guaranteed NI or the Second
Guaranteed NI. Any such transfer of the 5% Make Good Shares 

11 

or the 2.5% Make Good Shares under this Section shall be made within 10
business days after the date which the 2006 audit report for the Company is
filed with the SEC. 

Section 7. Registration Rights. 

7.1 Registration by the Company. 

(a) Mandatory Registration. As promptly as practicable (but in
no event later than 30 days) after the closing date of this Agreement, the
Company shall file a registration statement or an amendment to a registration
statement already filed but not yet declared effective by the SEC (such
registration statement or any such amendment, the "Registration Statement"),
with the SEC under the Act to register the Shares. 

(b) Registration Statement Form. Registrations under this
Section7.1 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the SEC as shall be
reasonably selected by the Company and approved by each Purchaser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall provide drafts of
the Registration Statement proposed to be filed by it to the Purchaser in
advance of the filing thereof and provide the Purchaser with a reasonable amount
of time to review and comment on the same prior to its filing. 

(c) Effective Registration Statement. A registration required
pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall not be deemed to have been effected unless
the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC and has
remained effective until the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the
declaration of its effectiveness by the SEC or (ii) such time as all of the
Shares have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of
disposition by each Purchaser set forth in such Registration Statement (unless
the failure to so dispose of such Shares shall be caused solely by reason of a
failure on the part of the Purchaser) and in compliance with the provisions of
the Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Shares covered by such
Registration Statement. Such Registration Statement shall not cease to be
available and effective as to all shares which is required to cover for more
than 20 trading days in any 12-month period. 

7.2 Priority Registrations. Notwithstanding anything else set
forth herein and subject to the limitations set forth below, the Registration
Statement may include, in addition to the Shares, other securities of the
Company which are proposed to be sold for the account of the Company or any
other stockholders thereof. 

7.3 Registration Procedures. The Company shall, as
expeditiously as possible: 

(a) prepare and file with the SEC the requisite Registration
Statement to effect such registration and thereafter use its reasonable best
efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the
SEC; 

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and
to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all
the Shares covered by such Registration Statement until the earlier of the time
as all of such Shares have been disposed of in accordance with the intended
methods of 

12 

disposition by the Purchaser set forth in such Registration
Statement or the date that the Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 144 under the Act; 

(c) furnish such number of conformed copies of such
Registration Statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in
each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus
contained in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus
and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under
the Act, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other
documents, as the Purchaser may reasonably request; 

(d) use its reasonable best efforts (i) to register or qualify
the Shares under such other securities or blue sky laws of such States of the
United States of America where an exemption is not available and as Purchaser
shall reasonably request, (ii) to keep such registration or qualification in
effect for so long as such Registration Statement remains in effect, and (iii)
to take any other action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to
enable the Purchaser to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
securities to be sold by the Purchaser, except that the Company shall not for
any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign
corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it would not but for the requirements of
this subdivision (d) be obligated to be so qualified or to consent to general
service of process in any such jurisdiction; 

(e) use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Shares
covered by such Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such
other federal or state governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary
in the opinion of counsel to the Company and counsel to the Purchaser to enable
the Purchaser to consummate the disposition of such Shares; 

(f) notify the Purchaser at any time when a prospectus
relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act, upon discovery that,
or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included
in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement
of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, and at the request of the
Purchaser promptly prepare and furnish to it a reasonable number of copies of a
supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as
thereafter delivered to the Purchaser of such securities, such prospectus shall
not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made;

(g) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with
all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and, if required, make
available to its security holders simultaneously with its disclosure to the
public, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months, but
not more than eighteen months, beginning with the first full calendar month
after the effective date of such Registration Statement, which earnings
statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158
promulgated thereunder, and promptly furnish to Purchaser a copy of any
amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or prospectus; 

13 

(h) provide and cause to be maintained a
transfer agent and registrar (which, in each case, may be the Company) for all
the Shares covered by such Registration Statement from and after a date not
later than the effective date of such registration; and 

(i) use its reasonable best efforts to list the Shares on any
national securities exchange on which the shares of the same class covered by
such Registration Statement are then listed. 

Each Purchaser agrees by acquisition of the Shares that, upon
receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind
described in subdivision (f) of this Section 7.3, such holder will forthwith
discontinue such disposition of the Shares pursuant to the Registration
Statement until Purchaser's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended
prospectus contemplated by subdivision (f) of this Section 7.3 and, if so
directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense)
all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such holder's possession
of the prospectus relating to the Shares current at the time of receipt of such
notice. 

Section 8. Event of Force Majeure. 

(a) For the purpose of Section 8, "Force Majeure" shall mean
all events, which were unforeseeable at the time this Agreement is signed, the
occurrence and consequences of which cannot be avoided or overcome, and which
arises after this Agreement is signed and prevent total or partial performance
by any Party of this Agreement. Such events shall include earthquakes, typhoons,
flood, fire, war, failures of international or domestic transportation, acts of
government or public agencies, epidemics, civil disturbances, strikes and any
other instances which cannot be foreseen, avoided or overcome. 

(b) If an event of Force Majeure occurs, a Party's obligations
under this Agreement affected by such an event shall be excused, without
assuming the liability of breach of this Agreement. 

(c) The Party claiming Force Majeure shall
promptly inform the other Party in writing and shall furnish within 30 days
sufficient evidence of the occurrence and duration of such Force Majeure. 

Section 9. Agreements of the Company. 

9.1 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. By 9:30 a.m. (New
York time) on the Trading Day following the execution of this Agreement, and by
9:30 a.m. (New York time) on the Trading Day following the Closing Date, the
Company shall issue press releases disclosing the transactions contemplated
hereby and the Closing. On the Trading Day following the execution of this
Agreement the Company will file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the
material terms of the Transaction Documents (and attach as exhibits thereto the
Transaction Documents), and on the Trading Day following the Closing Date the
Company will file an additional Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the
Closing. In addition, the Company will make such other filings and notices in
the manner and time required by the Commission and the Trading Market on which
the Common Stock is listed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not
publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor
in any filing with the SEC (other than the Registration Statement and any
exhibits to filings made in respect of this transaction in 

14 

accordance with periodic filing requirements under the
Exchange Act) or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior
written consent of such Investor, except to the extent such disclosure is
required by law or Trading Market regulations. 

9.2 Independent Nature of Investors' Obligations and Rights.
The obligations of each investor under any Transaction Document are several and
not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to
purchase Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such
Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any
Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each
Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such
Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor
will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its
investment in the Shares or enforcing its rights under the Transaction
Documents. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce
its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this
Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be
necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors
has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing
a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or
requested to do so by any Investor. 

9.3 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the liability of an
Investor arising directly or indirectly, under any Transaction Document of any
and every nature whatsoever shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of such
Investor, and that no trustee, officer, other investment vehicle or any other
Affiliate of such Investor or any investor, shareholder or holder of shares of
beneficial interest of such a Investor shall be personally liable for any
liabilities of such Investor. 

9.4 Furnishing of Information. As long as any Investor owns
the Shares, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in
respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports
required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the
Exchange Act. As long as any Investor owns Shares, if the Company is not
required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to
the Investors and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such
information as is required for the Investors to sell the Shares under Rule 144.
The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any
holder of Shares may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to
time to enable such Person to sell the Shares without registration under the Act
within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. 

9.5 Integration. The Company shall not, and
shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall,
sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect
of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Act) that would be integrated
with the offer or sale of the Shares in a manner that would require the
registration under the Act of the sale of the Shares to the Investors, or that
would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for purposes 

15 

of the rules and regulations of any trading market in a manner
that would require stockholder approval of the sale of the securities to the
Investors. 

9.6 Indemnification of Investors. The Company will indemnify
and hold the Investors and their directors, officers, shareholders, partners,
employees and agents (each, an "Investor Party") harmless from any and
all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and
expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of investigation (collectively, "Losses")
that any such Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to
any misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement made by the Company in this Agreement. In addition to the
indemnity contained herein, the Company will reimburse each Investor Party for
its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any
investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith) incurred in
connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred. 

9.7 Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees
that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any
Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes
constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Investor
shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of
such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Investor shall
be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company. 

9.8 Listing of Shares. The Company agrees, (i) if the Company
applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other trading market, it will
include in such application the Shares, and will take such other action as is
necessary or desirable to cause the Shares to be listed on such other trading
market as promptly as possible, and (ii) it will take all action reasonably
necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a trading
market and will comply in all material respects with the Company's reporting,
filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the trading market.

Replacement of Shares. If any certificate or
instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the
Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and
upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefore, a new
certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and
reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or
instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party
costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares. If a replacement
certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is requested due to a mutilation
thereof, the Company may require delivery of such mutilated certificate or
instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement. 

9.9 The Company acknowledges and agrees that an Investor may
from time to time pledge, and/or grant a security interest in some or all of the
Shares pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement in connection with a bona fide
margin account and, if required under the terms of such agreement or account,
such Investor may transfer pledged or secured Shares to the pledgees or secured
parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval or consent
of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel to the pledgee, secured
party or pledgor shall be 

16 

required in connection with the pledge, but such legal opinion may be
required in connection with a subsequent transfer following default by the
Investor transferee of the pledge. No notice shall be required of such pledge.
At the appropriate Investor's expense, the Company will execute and deliver such
reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Shares may reasonably
request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Shares including the
preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule
424(b)(3) of the Act or other applicable provision of the Act to appropriately
amend the list of Selling Stockholders thereunder. 

Section 10. Survival of Representations and Warranties. 

All representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements contained herein
shall not be discharged or dissolved upon, but shall survive the Closing and
shall be unaffected by any investigation made by any party at any time. 

Section 11. Board Representation. 

Upon Closing, the Purchasers shall, collectively, have no right to designate
any member of the Company's board of directors. 

Section 12. Entirety and Modification. 

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior
agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, between the parties
hereto relating to such subject matter. No modification, alteration, amendment,
or supplement to this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless the same is
in writing and signed by all parties hereto. 

Section 13. Amendments; Waivers; No Additional Consideration.

No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended except in a written
instrument signed by the Company and the Investors holding a majority of the
Shares. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or
requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the
future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision,
condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party
to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such
right. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Investor to amend or
consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any transaction document
unless the same consideration is also offered to all Investors who then hold
Shares. 

Section 14. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. 

This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor
may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise
set forth in the Indemnification of Investors section. 

Section 15. Execution and Counterparts 

17 

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when
taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the
other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same
counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the
party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same
force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.

Section 16. Successors and Assigns. 

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
respective parties hereto, their successors and permitted assigns, heirs, and
personal representatives. 

Section 17. Governing Law. 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
with the laws of the State of Delaware. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this agreement
as of the date first written above.

7. Exculpation and
Indemnification of Escrow Agent. 

(a) Escrow Agent is
not a party to, and is not bound by or charged with notice of any agreement out
of which this escrow may arise. Escrow Agent acts under this Agreement as a
depositary only and is not responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever for
the sufficiency, correctness, genuineness or validity of the subject matter of
the escrow, or any part thereof, or for the form or execution of any notice
given by any other party hereunder, or for the identity or authority of any
person executing any such notice or depositing the Escrow Funds. Escrow Agent
will have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth
herein. Escrow Agent will be under no liability to anyone by reason of any
failure on the part of any party hereto (other than Escrow Agent) or any maker,
endorser or other signatory of any document to perform such person's or entity's
obligations hereunder or under any such document. Except for this Agreement and
instructions to Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Escrow
Agent will not be obligated to recognize any agreement between or among any or
all of the persons or entities referred to herein, notwithstanding its knowledge
thereof. 

(b) Escrow Agent
will not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered
by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the exercise of its own best
judgment, and may rely conclusively on, and will be protected in acting upon,
any order, notice, demand, certificate, or opinion or advice of counsel
(including counsel chosen by Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or
other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and
effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of
any information therein contained) which is reasonably believed by Escrow Agent
to be genuine 

2

and to be signed or presented by the proper person or
persons. The duties and responsibilities of the Escrow Agent hereunder shall be
determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement and no other or
further duties or responsibilities shall be implied, including, but not limited
to, any obligation under or imposed by any laws of the State of Texas upon
fiduciaries. 

(c) Escrow Agent
will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, damages or
losses suffered by Escrow Agent in connection with any claim or demand, which,
in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Agreement
or the services of Escrow Agent hereunder; except, that if Escrow Agent is
guilty of willful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence under this Agreement,
then Escrow Agent will bear all losses, damages and expenses arising as a result
of such willful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence. For this purpose, the
term "attorneys' fees" includes fees payable to any counsel retained by the
Escrow Agent in connection with its services under this agreement and, with
respect to any matter arising under this agreement as to which the Escrow Agent
performs legal services, its standard hourly rates and charges then in effect.
Promptly after the receipt by Escrow Agent of notice of any such demand or claim
or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding relating to such demand or
claim, Escrow Agent will notify the other parties hereto in writing. For the
purposes hereof, the terms "expense" and "loss" will include all amounts paid or
payable to satisfy any such claim or demand, or in settlement of any such claim,
demand, action, suit or proceeding settled with the express written consent of
the parties hereto, and all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, paid or incurred in investigating
or defending against any such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding. The
provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

8. Compensation of Escrow Agent.
The Company will pay Escrow Agent $3,000 for all services rendered by Escrow
Agent hereunder. 

9. Resignation of
Escrow Agent. At any time, upon ten (10) days' written notice to the
Company, Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties as Escrow
Agent hereunder. As soon as practicable after its resignation, Escrow Agent will
promptly turn over to a successor escrow agent appointed by the Purchasers all
monies and property held hereunder upon presentation of a document appointing
the new escrow agent and evidencing its acceptance thereof. If, by the end of
the 10-day period following the giving of notice of resignation by Escrow Agent,
the Purchasers shall have failed to appoint a successor escrow agent, Escrow
Agent may interplead the Escrow Funds into the registry of any court having
jurisdiction. 

10. Method of
Distribution by Escrow Agent. All disbursements by Escrow Agent to a
party to this Agreement will be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to an account designated in writing by the party to receive any such
payment. 

11. Records.
Escrow Agent shall maintain accurate records of all transactions hereunder.
Promptly after the termination of this Agreement or as may reasonably be
requested by the parties hereto from time to time before such termination,
Escrow Agent shall provide the parties hereto, as the case may be, with a
complete copy of such records, certified by Escrow Agent to be a complete and
accurate account of all such transactions. The authorized 

3

representatives of each of the parties hereto shall have access to such books
and records at all reasonable times during normal business hours upon reasonable
notice to Escrow Agent. 

12. Notice.

under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given if
sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or overnight
courier.

14. Assignment
and Modification. This Agreement and the rights and obligations
hereunder of any of the parties hereto may not be assigned without the prior

Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No other person

thereof to such party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. This Agreement may be changed or modified only in writing signed by
