Company shall have the right to challenge in good faith by appropriate
proceedings any disputed taxes, assessments or governmental charges or levies
provided that the Company establishes appropriate reserves therefor in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; and, provided,
further, that notwithstanding any such contest, the Company shall pay such
disputed taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies if nonpayment
would result in the imposition of any Lien on the Company's assets or
properties.

assignment of each License or other agreement between the Company and either of
such entities in favor of the Lenders, which collateral assignment of such
Licenses or other agreements shall be in recordable form, to the Lenders'
satisfaction, necessary to give the Lenders a duly perfected first priority
assignment of such Licenses or other agreements.

                  (b)      The Company shall have the right to sell or otherwise
dispose of Collateral from time to time; provided, that all proceeds of any such
sale or disposal are used to repay the principal and interest due on the Notes
(subject to the terms thereof).

                  (c)      In connection with any sale or other disposition of
Collateral made in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.14, upon receipt
of a written request from the Company the Lenders shall promptly effect the

at least thirty (30) days notice prior to cancellation. Upon an Event of
Default: (i) all loss recoveries received by the Lenders upon any such insurance
may be applied to the obligations represented by the Notes; (ii) any surplus
shall be paid by the Lenders to the Company or applied as may be otherwise

the Company's certificate of incorporation or by-laws; (c) any change in the
Company's business, assets, liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise),

<PAGE>

a material adverse effect on the Company; (d) any Event of Default or Default;
(e) any default or any event which with the passage of time or giving of notice

Company's business, operations, property or condition (financial or otherwise)
or the Collateral; (f) any change in the location of the Company's Inventory or
Equipment from the locations listed on Schedule II attached hereto; (g) any

Lenders or such agent as they shall designate as the Company's attorney-in-fact,
with full power and authority in place and stead of the Company and in the name

of the attorney. The powers conferred on the Lenders hereunder are solely to
protect their interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon
them to exercise any such powers. Neither the Lenders nor the attorney will be
liable for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact
or law, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being
coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as an account which is assigned
to the Lenders remains unpaid and until the obligations arising under the Notes
have been fully satisfied.

         4.18.    Food and Drug Administration. The Company shall comply in all
material respects with all FDA requirements necessary for the Lenders to

shall constitute an "Event of Default":

                                       12
<PAGE>

                  (a)      the failure of the Company to make any payment of
principal of or interest on, or any other amounts due under, either of the Notes
when due, whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise;

                  (b)      the Company fails to make a required payment or
payments on indebtedness for borrowed money of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars
($25,000) or more in aggregate principal amount;

                  (c)      there shall have occurred an acceleration of the
stated maturity of any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company of
Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) or more in aggregate principal amount
(which acceleration is not rescinded, annulled or otherwise cured within ten
(10) days of receipt by the Company of notice of such acceleration);

                  (d)      an Insolvency Event occurs and is continuing with
respect to the Company;

                  (e)      a final judgment which, in the aggregate with other
outstanding final judgments against the Company, exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand
Dollars ($25,000) shall be rendered against the Company and within ninety (90)
days after entry thereof, such judgment is not discharged or execution thereof
stayed pending appeal, or within ninety (90) days after the expiration of such
stay, such judgment is not discharged;

                  (f)      if any warranty, representation or statement of fact
made herein or in the Notes by or on behalf of the Company proves to have been
false in any material respect when made or furnished;

                  (g)      in the event of any levy on, seizure or attachment of
any of the Collateral;

                  (h)      if the Company fails to observe or perform any of its
covenants contained herein and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after
receipt by the Company of notice thereof (except that there shall be no extended
cure period for any failure to comply with Section 4.13 hereof);

                  (i)      the security interests granted herein do not
constitute for any reason a first priority perfected security interest in the
Collateral; or

                  (j)      an Event of Default (as defined therein), or other
breach or default by the Company under the Notes or any of the other Transaction
Documents (as that term is defined in the Notes) occurs and is continuing.

         5.2.     Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and continuation of
any Event of Default, the Lenders shall have the right to demand repayment in
full of all obligations arising under the Notes. Until all such obligations have
been fully satisfied, the Lenders shall retain their Security Interest in all
Collateral. The Lenders shall have, in addition to all other rights provided
herein, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and under other

                                       13
<PAGE>

applicable law, all other legal and equitable rights to which the Lenders may be
entitled, including without limitation, the right to take immediate possession
of the Collateral, to require the Company to assemble the Collateral, at the
Company's expense, and to make it available to the Lenders at a place designated
by the Lenders which is reasonably convenient to both parties and to enter any
of the Premises of the Company or wherever the Collateral shall be located, with
or without process of law, and to keep and store the same at any such premises
until sold (and in the case of Collateral located at any of the Premises or any
other property of the Company, the Company agrees not to charge the Lenders for
storage thereof), and at any time or times after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, to sell and deliver all Collateral held by the Lenders in one or more
parcels at public sale for cash, upon credit or otherwise, or otherwise recover
upon the Collateral in any commercially reasonable manner. Except as to that
part of the Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in
nature or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the requirement
of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is mailed postage prepaid to
the Company at least ten (10) days before the time of the event of which notice
is being given. Any Lender may be the purchaser at any sale, if it is public.
The proceeds of sale shall be applied first to all costs and expenses of sale,
including reasonable and documented attorneys' fees and expenses, and second to
the payment of all obligations arising under the Notes. The Lenders will return
any excess to the Company and the Company shall remain liable to the Lenders for
any deficiency. Until the Lenders are able to effect a sale, lease, or other
disposition of Collateral, the Lenders shall have the right to use or operate
Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that they deem appropriate for
the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose
deemed appropriate by the Lenders. The Lenders shall have no obligation to the
Company to maintain or preserve the rights of the Company as against third
parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of the
Lenders. The Lenders may seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take
possession of Collateral and to enforce any of its remedies with respect to such
appointment without prior notice or hearing. In connection with the exercise of
the foregoing remedies, the Lenders are granted permission to use: (a) all of
the Company's Intellectual Property which are used in connection with Inventory
for the purpose of disposing of such Inventory; and (b) any Equipment for the
purpose of completing the manufacture of unfinished goods. Acceptance of the
Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of the obligations under the Notes
shall be governed by the provisions of RCW 62A.9A-620 (or its successor);
provided, however, that notwithstanding the provisions of RCW 62A.9A-620 (or its
successor) and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2, the
parties agree that the Lenders shall not be permitted to retain the Collateral
in full or partial satisfaction of the obligations arising under the Notes
without the affirmative written consent of the Company after an event of
default.

         5.3.     Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the purpose
of enabling the Lenders to exercise rights and remedies under this Article at
such time as the Lenders shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and
remedies, the Company hereby grants to the Lenders an irrevocable, non-exclusive
license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the
Company) following the occurrence of an Event of Default, to use, license or
sublicense any of the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned
or hereafter acquired by the Company, and wherever the same may be located, and
including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the
licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and
programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of

                                       14
<PAGE>

such license by the Lenders shall be exercised, at the option of the Lenders,
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided
that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Lenders in
accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Company notwithstanding any
subsequent cure of an Event of Default.

SECTION 6. SENIORITY.

         The Security Interest granted hereunder upon the Collateral shall be
senior to and have priority over all debt of the Company.

SECTION 7. LIABILITY DISCLAIMER.

         Under no circumstances whatsoever shall the Lenders be deemed to assume
any responsibility for or obligation or duty with respect to any part or all of
the Collateral, of any nature or kind whatsoever, or with respect to any matter
or proceedings arising out of or relating thereto. The Lenders shall not be
required to take any action of any kind to collect or protect any interest in
the Collateral, including but not limited to any action necessary to preserve
its, or the Company's rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral.
Except in cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Lenders shall not
be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping, care or custody of any
of the Collateral, or for any loss or damage thereto, or for any diminution in
the value thereof, or for any act or default of any agent or bailee of the
Lenders or the Company, or of any carrier, forwarding agency or other person
whomsoever, or for the collection of any proceeds, but the same shall be at the
Company's sole risk at all times. Except in cases of gross negligence or willful
misconduct, the Company hereby releases the Lenders from any claims, causes of
action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to this Agreement
or the obligations arising under the Notes, and any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by the Lenders with respect thereto, and the Company agrees to defend
and hold the Lenders harmless from and with respect to any and all such claims,
causes of action and demands.

SECTION 8. LENDER ACTION.

         Any action permitted to be taken by the Lenders pursuant to this
Agreement may only be taken by Lenders holding, in the aggregate, at least 51%
of the outstanding principal under the Notes.

SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS.

         9.1.     No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay by the
Lenders in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy under this Agreement. The
remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any
remedies provided by law.

                                       15

instrument and notice thereof, notice of default and all other notices to which
the Company might otherwise be entitled.

         9.3.     Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Lenders
hereunder, the Security Interest and all the obligations under the Notes shall
be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or
enforceability of any agreement with respect to any of the obligations under the
Notes, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term of, the obligations under the Notes, (c) any exchange, release or
non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or
waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee securing or
guaranteeing all or any of the obligations under the Notes, or (d) any other
circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of, the Company in respect of the obligations under the Notes or this
Agreement.

         9.4.     Amendments, Etc. No amendment, modification, termination or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the
Company therefrom or any release of a Lien shall be effective unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by Lenders holding in the aggregate, at least 51%
of the outstanding principal amount under the Notes, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Company in any case shall
entitle the Company to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.

         9.5.     Notices. Any notices required or permitted to be given under
the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by mail,
personal delivery, facsimile transmission or courier and shall be effective five
(5) days after being placed in the mail, if mailed, or upon receipt, if
delivered personally, by facsimile transmission or by courier, in each case
addressed to a party at such party's address (or facsimile transmission number)
shown below or such other address (or facsimile transmission number) as a party
shall have provided by notice to the other party in accordance with this
provision. In the case of any notice to the Company, such notice shall be

any notice to the Lenders, such notice shall be addressed to the addresses set
forth opposite their names on Exhibit A.

         9.6.     Costs and Expenses. The Company shall pay all of the Lenders'
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with
the prosecution or defense of any action, contest, dispute, suit or proceeding
concerning any matter in any way arising out of, related to or connected with
this Agreement.

         9.7.     Counterparts; Faxes. This Agreement may be executed in two or

shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the Lenders and
their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company shall not have
the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any
interest herein or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall
be void). Upon a transfer by a Lender, such transferee shall be released from
all responsibility for the Collateral for all actions arising after the date of
such transfer to the extent same is assigned to any transferee.

         9.9.     Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement
which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions
hereof.

         9.10.    Titles and Subtitles; Cross-References. The titles and
subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be
considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement. All references in this
Agreement to Articles, Sections, subsections, Exhibits and Schedules, shall be

unless otherwise explicitly specified. All references to statutes and related
regulations shall include any amendments of same and any successor statutes and

         9.11.    Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Exclusive Procedure.

                  (a)      Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Washington,
without reference to the choice of law principles thereof.

                  (b)      Dispute Resolution; Exclusive Procedure.

                           (1)      Exclusive Procedure. Every controversy,
claim, dispute or disagreement arising with respect to the formation,
interpretation, performance, or breach of this Agreement, the Notes, or any
amendment modification, alteration, waiver, extension, or change of any of the
provisions thereof (any "Dispute"), will be resolved in accordance with this
Section 9.11(b), which sets forth the sole and exclusive procedure for the
resolution of any Dispute.

                           (2)      Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Company or the Lenders may, prior to invoking the
procedure called for in this Section 9.11(b), seek a temporary restraining order
or a preliminary injunction (an "Injunctive Action") pursuant to this paragraph.
The Superior Court of the State of Washington in King County shall be the
exclusive venue and have exclusive jurisdiction for all such Injunctive Actions.
The Lenders and the Company stipulate and agree for the purposes of any
Injunctive Action that all real and personal property of the Company and Lenders
relevant to such Injunctive Action will be deemed to be within the jurisdiction
of the Superior Court of the State of Washington in King County. Other than the
foregoing stipulation regarding matters and property subject to Injunctive
Action, any party bringing an Injunctive Action pursuant to this agreement must
make a showing of the requisites for such Injunctive Action in such court. This
provision for Injunctive Actions is the sole and exclusive process by which any
party shall maintain any Injunctive Action, and shall be limited to those cases
in which emergency access to the court is

                                       17
<PAGE>

necessary to prevent immediate and irreparable harm in the interim period until
the agreed upon dispute resolution provisions of this Section 9.11(b) can be
carried out.

                           (3)      Negotiation. Either party to this Security
Agreement, the Lenders (collectively, pursuant to Section 8 of this Security
Agreement) or the Company, seeking resolution of a Dispute, must request in
writing that a good faith negotiation ("Negotiation Effort") be carried on
amongst a designated representative of the Lenders and a designated
representative of the Company. ("Designated Representatives"). By the
appointment of such Designated Representative, each party agrees and
acknowledges that, notwithstanding any contrary or limiting provisions of
Section 9.4 of this Security Agreement, such Designated Representative is fully
authorized to resolve the Dispute on behalf of his or her appointing party
pursuant to the terms hereof, and that the Lenders' Designated Representative is
authorized to amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision or provisions of
this Agreement, consent to any to any departure by the Company therefrom, and
release any Lien. A Designated Representative may be replaced at any time at the
sole discretion of the appointing party by notice in writing to the other party.
Following any request for a Negotiation Effort, the Designated Representatives
shall negotiate in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days (the "Negotiation
Period"). The Negotiation Effort may be conducted in person, by telephone, or by
such other means as the Designated Representatives agree will tend to lead
toward an amicable resolution of the Dispute. Should a Negotiation Effort fail
to produce a resolution within the Negotiation Period, the Designated
Representatives may agree to extend the Negotiation Period for a fixed time if
each agrees that such an extension could reasonably lead to an amicable
resolution.

                           (4)      Mediation. Should a Negotiation Effort fail
to produce a resolution within the Negotiation Period and any extension thereof,
then either Designated Representative, if wishing to further pursue resolution
of the Dispute, must initiate mediation by providing to Judicial Arbitration
Mediation Services ("JAMS"), or its successor, in Seattle, Washington and to the
other Designated Representative a written request for mediation pursuant to this
Section, setting forth the subject of the Dispute and the relief requested
within fifteen (15) days of the end of the Negotiation Period and any extension
thereof. The Designated Representatives shall cooperate with JAMS and with one
another in selecting a mediator from JAMS' panel of neutrals, but if the
Designated Representatives cannot agree on a mediator within seven (7) days from
the date of the request for mediation then the Designated Representatives shall
each select a designee from among the JAMS panel of neutrals, and those
designees shall in turn select, from among the JAMS panel of neutrals, the
single mediator who shall conduct the mediation (the "Mediator"). The Mediator
shall have experience with corporate law. The Mediation will be conducted within
forty-five (45) days of the expiration of the Negotiation Period and any
extension thereof unless otherwise agreed by the Designated Representatives (the
"Mediation Period"). The Mediator may conduct meetings or hearings in Seattle,
Washington, or by telephone or teleconference, and request information from the
Company or Lenders as he or she deems necessary, and shall, if the matter
remains unresolved through such mediation, issue written recommendations to the
Company and Lenders within fifteen (15) days of the end of the Mediation Period.
The Designated Representatives shall then confer and determine, within seven (7)
days of the issuance of the mediator's written recommendations, whether the
mediator's recommendations are agreeable to the Company and

                                       18
<PAGE>

the Lenders. Each party shall bear its own costs of the Mediation, and the
mediator's fee shall be divided evenly between the Company and the Lenders.

                           (5)      Binding Arbitration.

                                    (i)      If after the mediation procedures
called for in this Section 9.11(b), the Dispute remains unresolved, either
Designated Representative, if wishing to further pursue a resolution of the
Dispute, must initiate binding arbitration, before a single arbitrator, by
providing to JAMS, or its successor, in Seattle, Washington and to the other
Designated Representative a written request for binding arbitration pursuant to
this Section, setting forth the subject of the Dispute and the relief requested
within thirty (30) days of the expiration of the seven day period following the
issuance of the Mediator's written recommendations.

                                    (ii)     The Designated Representatives
shall then cooperate with JAMS and with one another in selecting an arbitrator
from JAMS' panel of neutrals, but if the Designated Representatives cannot agree
on an arbitrator within seven (7) days, then each Designated Representative
shall select a designee from among the JAMS panel of neutrals, and those
designees shall in turn select, from among the JAMS panel of neutrals, the
single arbitrator who shall hear the matter in arbitration (the "Arbitrator").
The Arbitrator shall have experience with corporate law.

                                    (iii)    The arbitration shall be conducted
in Seattle, Washington under the arbitration rules contained in the then
published Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA"), except as such are inconsistent with the
explicit provisions herein (the "Arbitration"). The arbitration hearing shall be
conducted within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the Arbitrator unless
otherwise agreed by the Designated Representatives (the "Arbitration Period").

                                    (iv)     The Arbitrator shall have full
discretion to regulate discovery so as to provide for prompt, efficient, and
fair resolution of the claims, disputes and matters in question; consistent with
this and the timelines above, discovery may be had by either party pursuant to
the provisions of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. During the conduct of
the arbitration proceedings, the Arbitrator shall have full discretion
concerning the admissibility and relevance of evidence, being guided in
exercising such discretion by the principles set out in the Federal Rules of
Evidence rather than any other body of evidentiary law as defined by state
common law, codes or rules of evidence.

                                    (v)      The Arbitrator shall, within thirty
(30) days following the close of the Arbitration Period, issue an award that
shall be binding upon the parties and judgment on the award may be entered in
any court of appropriate jurisdiction. The arbitration award must be in writing
and must explain the reasons for the decision. The Arbitrator may, but will not
be bound to, make findings of fact or conclusions of law. Each party shall bear
its own costs in such arbitration, and the Arbitrator's fee shall be divided
evenly between the Company and the Lenders.

                                       19
<PAGE>

                           (6)      Interim Payment of Fees and Expenses. The
Company and the Lenders agree and understand that during any mediation or
arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 9.11(b), JAMS may, from time to
time, assess each party for its share of JAMS' fees and expenses and the fees
and expenses of the Mediator or Arbitrator; it is also understood that JAMS will
likely make such requests for payment in advance of the various stages of the
proceedings conducted by the Mediator or Arbitrator. Each person who is one of
the Lenders shall bear the costs of the Negotiation Effort, the Mediation, and
the Arbitration in proportion to that person's share of the principal amount
then outstanding. If any such request for fees and expenses is not honored
promptly by a party (a "Default"), and such Default results in the delay or
postponement of any scheduled activities (e.g., discovery, pre-hearing
conferences, hearings, etc.), then (i) if during mediation, at the written
election of any party not in Default the Mediation Period may be deemed to be
terminated immediately, and (ii) if during arbitration the Arbitrator may
receive submissions from the parties and factual information from JAMS about
amounts due and owing by the parties. Upon consideration thereof, the Arbitrator
is authorized to issue written conclusions that the Default constitutes a breach
by the defaulting party of its obligation to arbitrate in good faith and to
issue an award of sanctions (up to and including entry of a default judgment)
against such party based on that conclusion (a "Default Award"). Any Default
Award shall be binding upon the parties as an independent final arbitration
award on the issue of that Default and judgment on the award may be entered in
any court of appropriate jurisdiction. In the case of an arbitration proceeding,
the non-defaulting party may elect to proceed with arbitration under the
relevant procedures contained in the then published Commercial Arbitration Rules
and Mediation Procedures of the AAA for conducting arbitration in the absence of
a party or representative.

                           (7)      Confidentiality. The negotiation, mediation
and arbitration proceedings will be private and confidential. The parties shall
not disclose the pleading, discovery materials, transcripts, testimony,
documents or other information created, produced or presented in the
negotiation, mediation or arbitration to the press, the public or to any third
person, except to legal counsel and their employees, experts and others who need
to know such information in order to assist in the presentation of or
participation in negotiation, mediation or arbitration, without written consent
of the other parties or order of the Arbitrator. Nothing in this provision shall
be deemed to restrict a party's use or disclosure of documents (i) which are its
own, (ii) which are or have been lawfully obtained independent of discovery in
the negotiations, mediation, or arbitration, (iii) which are or become generally
available to the public through no act of the receiving party, (iv) which have
been lawfully obtained from a source other than the other party, (v) which are
reasonably necessary to be disclosed in connection with a proceeding or lawsuit
contemplated by this Section 9.11(b), or (vi) which are required to be disclosed
by law, court order or subpoena. The Arbitrator may impose such sanctions as are
deemed by the Arbitrator to be appropriate for violation of this provision.

         9.12.    Recapture. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, if the Lenders receive any payment or payments on account of
the obligations arising under the Notes, which payment or payments or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other
party under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or any other federal
or state bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or insolvency law relating to or
affecting the

                                       20
<PAGE>

enforcement of creditors' rights generally, common law or equitable doctrine,
then to the extent of any sum not finally retained by the Lenders, the Company's
obligations to the Lenders shall be reinstated and this Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect (or be reinstated) until payment shall have been made
to the Company, which payment shall be due on demand.

         9.13.    Use of Collateral; Releases and Terminations. This Security
Agreement is made for purposes of granting a security interest only.
Notwithstanding the present grant to the Lenders of a security interest in the
Collateral, the Company and the Lenders acknowledge that the Company is and
shall remain the owner of all right, title and interest in the Collateral, with
full power to manufacture, use, sell and license in the same manner and with the
same effect as if this Security Agreement had not been made. Upon payment of the
Loan, Lender shall execute and deliver to Borrower all releases, termination
statements, assignments and other instruments as may be necessary or proper to
revest in Company full title to the Collateral, including, without limitation,
documents suitable for recordation in the United States Patent and Trademark
Office in the Company's sole discretion.

         9.14.    Termination. When all obligations arising under the Notes
shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, this Agreement shall terminate, and
the Lenders shall forthwith caused to be assigned, transferred and delivered,
against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever,
any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the
order of the Company and to be released and canceled all licenses and rights
granted to it hereunder. The Lenders shall also execute and deliver to the
Company upon such termination such UCC termination statements and such other
documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the
termination of the release of the Liens on the Collateral.

         9.15.    Construction. The parties acknowledge that each party and its
counsel have reviewed this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to
the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party
shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments,
schedules or exhibits hereto.

         9.16.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior drafts and communications relating to such subject matter.

         9.17.    Amendment; Waiver. No modification, alteration, waiver or
change of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless set forth in a
writing that is signed by the parties and, then, shall be effective only to the
extent set forth in such signed writing.

                                  COMMON STOCK
<PAGE>
                      REGULATION S STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

      Regulation S Stock Purchase Agreement ("Agreement"), dated as of August
18, 2003 by and between Kid Castle Educational Corporation, a Florida
corporation having an address at 7th Floor, 127-1 Sung Chiang Road, Taipei,
R.O.C., Taiwan (the "Seller" or the "Company"), and GLOBE WISDOM INVESTMENTS
LIMITED, a Samoa international business company, the registered address of which
is P.O. Box 217, Apia, Samoa (collectively the "Purchaser").

      WHEREAS, Seller desires to sell to Purchaser 2,883,460 shares of the
Seller's common stock, no par value per share (the "Common Stock"), (the
"Shares") on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and

      WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to buy the Shares on the terms and conditions
set forth herein;

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements, covenants and
representations hereinafter set forth, the receipt and adequacy of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be bound, agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE I
                       PURCHASE, SALE AND TERMS OF SHARES

      1.1.  The Shares. The Seller agrees to sell to the Purchaser in an
            offshore transaction negotiated outside the U.S. and to be
            consummated and closed outside the U.S. and, in consideration of and
            in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants,
            terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees to
            purchase from the Seller, on a best efforts basis, subject to the
            conditions hereinafter set forth, 2,883,460 Shares of the Seller at
            $0.7 price per share (the "Purchase Price") or $2,018,422, in the
            aggregate purchase price (the "Aggregate Purchase Price").

      1.2.  Price; Closing. At each Closing, the Company will deliver to the
            Purchaser certificates for the number of Shares purchased at the
            Purchase Price set forth in Section 1.1 and the Purchaser will
            deliver a wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
            account of the Company, in an amount equal to the Purchase Price for
            the Shares purchased at each Closing; provided that, Purchaser shall
            use its best efforts to deliver wire transfers in an aggregate
            amount equal to the Aggregate Purchase Price. Share certificate(s)
            shall not be released or delivered until Seller has received the
            Purchase Price for such Shares.

      1.3.  [Intentionally left blank]

      1.4.  Representations by the Purchaser. The Purchaser makes the following
            representations and warranties to the Seller:
<PAGE>
            A.    Access to Information. The Purchaser, in making the decision
                  to purchase the Shares, has relied upon the representations
                  and warranties contained in this Agreement, the
                  representations and warranties of the Seller as well as
                  independent investigations made by it and/or its
                  representatives, if any. The Purchaser and/or its
                  representatives during the course of this transaction, and
                  prior to the purchase of any Shares, has had the opportunity
                  to ask questions of and receive answers from the management of
                  the Seller concerning the business of the Seller and to
                  receive any additional information, documents, records and
                  books relative to the business, assets, financial condition,
                  results of operations and liabilities (contingent or
                  otherwise) of the Seller.

            B.    Sophistication and Knowledge. The Purchaser and/or its
                  representatives has such knowledge and experience in financial
                  and business matters that it can represent itself and is
                  capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the purchase of
                  the Shares. The Purchaser is not relying on the Seller with
                  respect to the tax and other economic considerations of an
                  investment in the Shares, and the Purchaser has relied on the
                  advice of, or has consulted with, the Purchaser's own
                  advisor(s). The Purchaser represents that it has not been
                  organized for the purpose of acquiring the Shares.

            C.    Lack of Liquidity. The Purchaser acknowledges that the
                  purchase of the Shares involves a high degree of risk and
                  further acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of the
                  purchase of the Shares, including the total loss of its
                  investment. The Purchaser represents and understands that the
                  Shares may not be sold to a U.S. Person (as hereinafter
                  defined) or into the United States for a period of one (1)
                  year from the date of purchase and that Purchaser has no
                  present need for liquidity in connection with its purchase of
                  the Shares.

            D.    No Public Solicitation. The Purchaser is not purchasing the
                  Shares as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement,
                  article, notice or other communication published in any
                  newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over
                  television or radio, or presented at any seminar or meeting,
                  or any solicitation of a subscription by a person not
                  previously known to the Purchaser in connection with
                  investments in securities generally. Neither the Seller nor
                  the Purchaser has engaged in any "Directed Selling Efforts in
                  the U.S." as defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of
                  1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") ("Regulation S").

            E.    Authority. The Purchaser has full right and power to enter
                  into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and
                  this Agreement constitutes the Purchaser's valid and legally
                  binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
                  The Purchaser is authorized and

                                     - 2 -
<PAGE>
                  otherwise duly qualified to purchase and hold the Shares and
                  to enter into this Agreement.

            F.    Brokers or Finders. No person has or will have, as a result of
                  the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any right,
                  interest or valid claim against or upon the Seller for any
                  commission, fee or other compensation as a finder or broker
                  because of any act or omission by the Purchaser or its
                  respective agents.

            G.    Compliance with Local Laws. Any resale of the Shares during
                  the `distribution compliance period' as defined in Rule 902(f)
                  to Regulation S shall only be made in compliance with
                  exemptions from registration afforded by Regulation S.
                  Further, any such sale of the Shares in any jurisdiction
                  outside of the United States will be made in compliance with
                  the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Purchaser will not
                  offer to sell or sell the Shares in any jurisdiction unless
                  the Purchaser obtains all required consents, if any.

            H.    Regulation S Exemption. The Purchaser understands that the
                  Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance on an
                  exemption from the registration requirements of United States
                  federal and state securities laws under Regulation S
                  promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act and that the Seller
                  is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations,
                  warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of
                  the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the
                  applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of the
                  Purchaser to acquire the Shares. In this regard, the Purchaser
                  represents, warrants and agrees that:

                  a.    The Purchaser is not a U.S. Person (as defined below)

                        i     any natural person resident in the United States;

                        ii    any partnership or corporation organized or
                              incorporated under the laws of the United States;

                        iii   any estate of which any executor or administrator
                              is a U.S. person;

                        iv    any trust of which any trustee is a U.S. person;

                        v     any agency or branch of a foreign entity located
                              in the United States;

                              (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer
                              or other fiduciary for the benefit or account of a
                              U.S. person;

                        vii   any discretionary account or similar account

                              an individual) resident in the United States; and

                        viii  any partnership or corporation if:

                              (1)   organized or incorporated under the laws of
                                    any foreign jurisdiction; and

                              (2)   formed by a U.S. person principally for the
                                    purpose of investing in securities not
                                    registered under the Securities Act, unless
                                    it is organized or incorporated, and owned,
                                    by accredited investors (as defined in Rule
                                    501(a) under the Securities Act) who are not
                                    natural persons, estates or trusts.

                  b.    At the time of the origination of contact concerning
                        this Agreement and the date of the execution and
                        delivery of this Agreement, the Purchaser was outside of

                        pledge or otherwise transfer the shares in the United
                        States, or to a U.S. person or for the account or
                        benefit of a U.S. person, or otherwise in a manner that
                        is not in compliance with Regulation S.

                  d.    The Purchaser will, after expiration of the Restricted
                        Period, offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the
                        Shares only pursuant to registration under the
                        Securities Act or an available exemption therefrom and,
                        in accordance with all applicable state and foreign
                        securities laws.

                  e.    The Purchaser has not engaged in and prior to the
                        expiration of the Restricted Period will not engage in,
                        any short selling of or any hedging transaction with

                  g.    The transactions contemplated by this Agreement have not
                        been pre-arranged with a buyer located in the United

                        or scheme to evade the registration requirements of the
                        Securities Act.

                  h.    Neither the Purchaser nor any person acting on its
                        behalf has undertaken or carried out any activity for
                        the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to

                  j.    The Purchaser consents to the Seller making a notation

                  or made and will be effective within the time periods required
                  by law.

      2.4.  Litigation. To the best of the Seller's knowledge and belief, there

            nature, pending or is currently threatened, against the Seller. The
            Seller is not aware of any basis for any of the foregoing or any

            Purchaser or its agents in connection with the transactions
            contemplated by this Agreement, when read together, contains or will
            contain any material misstatement of fact or omits to state a
            material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or
            therein not misleading.

                               REGISTRATION RIGHTS

      3.1.  Piggy-Back and Demand Registrations.

            A.    If at any time following the of purchase of the Shares, the
                  Seller shall determine to register for its own account or the
                  account of others under the Securities Act (including pursuant
                  to a demand for registration of any stockholder of the Seller)
                  any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form
                  S-8 or their then equivalents relating to shares of Common
                  Stock to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition
                  of any entity or business or shares of Common Stock issuable
                  in connection with stock

                  option or other employee benefit plans, it shall send to the
                  Purchaser written notice of such determination and, if within
                  fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, the Purchaser
                  shall so request in writing, the Seller shall use its best
                  efforts to include in such registration statement all or any
                  part of the Registrable Shares the Purchaser requests to be
                  registered, except that if, in connection with the initial
                  public offering of the Seller, the managing underwriter shall
                  impose a limitation on the number of shares of such Common
                  Stock which may be included in the registration statement
                  because, in its judgment, such limitation is necessary to
                  effect an orderly public distribution, then the Seller shall
                  be obligated to include in such registration statement only
                  such limited portion of the Registrable Shares with respect to
                  which the Purchaser has requested inclusion hereunder on a pro
                  rata basis. For purposes of this Agreement, "Registrable
                  Shares" shall mean such number of Shares purchased under this
                  Agreement, provided, however, that shares of common Stock
                  which are Registrable Shares shall cease to be Registrable
                  Shares upon the consummation of any sale pursuant to a
                  registration statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

            B.    If at any time after the purchase of the Shares, the holders
                  of Registrable Shares who are entitled to registration rights
                  under this Section 3.1B shall notify the Company in writing
                  that it or they intend to offer or cause to be offered for
                  public sale Registrable Shares held by such holders which
                  shares constitute at least [twenty percent (20%)] of the
                  Registrable Shares, if no such public trading market exists at
                  such time, then the Company will so notify all holders of
                  Registrable Shares, including all holders who have a right to
                  acquire Registrable Shares. Upon written request of any holder
                  given within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by such
                  holder from the Company of such notification, the Company will
                  use its best efforts to cause such of the Registrable Shares
                  as may be requested by any holder thereof (including the
                  holder or holders giving the initial notice of intent to
                  offer) to be registered under the Securities Act as
                  expeditiously as possible. The Company shall not be required
                  to file a registration statement with the Commission pursuant
                  to this Section 3.1B at any time while another registration
                  statement (other than on Form S-3 or S-8) of the Company has
                  been filed with the Commission and is not yet effective or
                  within six months after the effective date of another
                  registration statement (other than on Form S-3 or S-8) filed
                  by the Company with the Commission. The Company shall not be
                  required to effect more than one registration during any
                  twelve (12) month period pursuant to this Section 3.1B and two
                  such registrations in the aggregate. In connection with any
                  request by any holder of Registrable Securities for
                  registration thereof pursuant to this Section, the Company
                  shall have the right to defer the filing of a registration
                  statement with the Commission for up to 30 days

                  after such filing would otherwise be required hereunder if the
                  Company shall furnish to the holders requesting such
                  registration a certificate approved by the Board of Directors
                  stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Company, it
                  would be detrimental to the interests of the Company for such
                  registration statement to be filed at such time.

      3.2.  Provisions Applicable to Registration. The following provisions
            shall apply, as applicable, in connection with the Registrable
            Shares to be included in the registration statement pursuant to this
            Article 3:

            A.    The Purchaser, if reasonably requested by the Seller or by the
                  underwriter with respect to any public offering, shall agree
                  not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any options
                  for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Registrable
                  Shares (other than those included in the registration) without
                  the prior written consent of the Seller or such underwriters,
                  as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one
                  hundred eighty (180) days), from the effective date of such
                  registration statement, or the commencement of the offering,
                  as applicable, as may be requested by the underwriters,
                  provided that all other holders of the class of securities
                  being registered shall make the same agreements as those
                  required to be made by the Purchaser under this Article 3.2A.

            B.    The Purchaser shall promptly provide the Seller with such
                  non-confidential and non-proprietary information as it shall
                  reasonably request and that is available to the Purchaser in
                  order to prepare the registration statement.

            C.    All reasonable and necessary expenses in connection with the
                  preparation of the registration statement, including, without
                  limitation, any and all legal, accounting and filing fees, but
                  not including fees and disbursements of experts and counsel
                  retained by the Purchaser or underwriting discounts and
                  commissions to be paid by the Purchaser, shall be borne by the
                  Seller.

            D.    The Seller shall use its best efforts to effect such
                  registration permitting the sale of such Registrable Shares in
                  accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution
                  thereof, and pursuant thereto, the Seller shall as
                  expeditiously as possible:

                  a.    prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement
                        relating to the applicable registration on any
                        appropriate form under the Securities Act, which form
                        shall be available for the sale of the Registrable
                        Shares in accordance with the intended method or methods
                        of distribution thereof and use its best efforts to
                        cause such registration statement to become effective
                        and keep such registration statement effective in
                        accordance with this Article 3.2;

<PAGE>
                  b.    prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
                        post-effective amendments to the registration statement
                        as may be necessary to keep the registration effective
                        until all such Registrable Shares are sold; cause the
                        prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus
                        supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant
                        to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; and comply with
                        the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
                        disposition of all securities covered by such
                        registration statement during the applicable period in
                        accordance with the intended method or methods of
                        distribution by the sellers thereof as set forth in such
                        registration statement or supplement to the prospectus;
                        provided, however that the Seller may, from time to
                        time, request that the Purchaser immediately discontinue
                        the disposition of the Registrable Shares if the Seller
                        determines, in the good faith exercise of its reasonable
                        business judgment, that the offering and disposition of
                        the Registrable Shares could materially interfere with
                        bona fide financing, acquisition or other material
                        business plans of the Seller or would require disclosure
                        of non-public information, the premature disclosure of
                        which could materially adversely affect the Seller (it
                        being acknowledged that the Seller is not required to
                        disclose in such request any such transaction, plan or
                        non-public information), so long as the Seller promptly
                        after the disclosure of such transaction, plan or
                        non-public information complies with this Article
                        3.2D(b);

                  c.    notify the Purchaser and the underwriter, if any,
                        promptly, and (if requested by any such person) confirm
                        such advice in writing, (A) when the prospectus or any
                        prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has
                        been filed, and, with respect to the registration
                        statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when
                        the same has become effective, (B) of any request by the
                        SEC for amendments or supplements to the registration
                        statement or the prospectus or for additional
                        information, (C) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop
                        order suspending the effectiveness of the registration
                        statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that
                        purpose, (D) of the receipt by the Seller of any
                        notification with respect to the suspension of the
                        qualification of the Registrable Shares for sale in any
                        jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceedings for
                        such purpose and (E) subject to the proviso below, of
                        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 a material fact required
                        to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
                        therein not misleading in light of the circumstances

                        request of any such person, prepare and furnish to such
                        person 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 purchasers of
                        such shares, 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 light of the
                        circumstances then existing; provided, however, the
                        Seller need not disclose the event if it otherwise has
                        not disclosed such event to the public;

                  d.    if requested by the underwriter or the Purchaser,
                        promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or
                        post-effective amendment such information as the
                        underwriter and the Purchaser agree should be included
                        therein relating to the plan of distribution with
                        respect to such Registrable Shares, including, without
                        limitation, the purchase price being paid therefor by
                        such underwriters and with respect to any other terms of
                        the underwritten offering of the Registrable Shares to
                        be sold in such offering; and make all required filings
                        of such prospectus supplements or post-effective
                        amendments as soon as notified of the matters to be
                        incorporated in such prospectus supplements or
                        post-effective amendments;

                  e.    deliver to the Purchaser and the underwriters, if any,
                        without charge, as many copies of the prospectus
                        (including each preliminary prospectus) in conformity
                        with the requirement of the Securities Act and any
                        amendments or supplements thereto as such persons may
                        reasonably request and such other documents as they may
                        reasonably request to facilitate the prior sale or other
                        disposition of such Registrable Shares;

                  f.    prior to any public offering of Registrable Shares,
                        register or qualify or cooperate with the Purchaser, or
                        the underwriters, if any, in connection with the
                        registration or qualification of such Registrable Shares
                        for offer and sale under the securities or state
                        securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Purchaser
                        or underwriters, if any, reasonably requests in writing
                        and do any and all other acts or things necessary or
                        advisable to enable the disposition in such
                        jurisdictions of the Registrable Shares covered by the
                        registration statement; provided, however, that the
                        Seller shall not be required to qualify to do business
                        in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or
                        to take any action that would subject it to general
                        service of process in any such jurisdiction

                        Seller to any tax in any such jurisdiction where it is
                        not then so subject; and

            E.    Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 3 to the
                  contrary, the Seller:

                  a.    may require the Purchaser to furnish to the Seller such
                        information regarding the distribution of such
                        securities as the Seller may from time to time
                        reasonably request in writing, and the Seller may limit
                        such registration rights to situations where a proposed
                        distribution of Registrable Shares is to be effected
                        forthwith upon the effectiveness of the registration
                        statement; and

                  b.    The undersigned will covenant that the Purchaser has not
                        taken, and will not take, directly, or indirectly, any
                        action designed, or which might reasonably be expected,
                        to cause or result in, under the Securities Exchange Act
                        or otherwise, or which has caused or resulted in,
                        stabilization or manipulation of the price of any
                        security of the Seller to facilitate the sale or resale
                        of the Registrable Shares.

            F.    Indemnification.

                  a.    In the event of a registration or qualification of any
                        Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to
                        the provisions of this Article 3, the Seller shall

                        and directors of the Purchaser and each director or

                        Securities Act (collectively, the "Indemnitees"), from
                        and against any and all losses, claims, damages or
                        liabilities, joint or several, to which any of the
                        Indemnitees, joint or several, may become subject under
                        the Securities Act or the applicable securities laws or
                        otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
                        liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of
                        or are based upon:

                              case shall reimburse the Indemnitees for any legal

                              liability (or action in respect thereof);
                              provided, however, that the Seller shall not be
                              liable in any such case to the extent that any
                              such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action
                              in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon
                              an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
                              omission or alleged omission made in such
                              registration statement in reliance upon and in
                              conformity with information furnished to the
                              Seller through an instrument duly executed by such
                              Indemnitees; and provided further, that the Seller
                              shall not be liable in any such case to the extent
                              that any such loss, claim, damage or liability
                              (or action in respect thereof) arises out of or is
                              based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
                              statement or omission or alleged omission in such
                              registration statement, which untrue statement or
                              alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
                              omission is completely corrected in an amendment
                              or supplement to the registration statement and
                              such the Indemnitee thereafter fails to deliver or
                              cause to be delivered such registration statement
                              as so amended or supplemented prior to or
                              concurrently with the sale of the Registrable
                              Shares to the person asserting

                              such loss, claim, damage or liability (or actions
                              in respect thereof) or expense after the Seller
                              has furnished the Purchaser with the same.

                  b.    In the event of the registration or qualification of any
                        Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to
                        the provisions of this Article 3, the Purchaser shall
                        indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, each person who
                        controls the Seller within the meaning of the Securities
                        Act, each officer and director of the Seller and any
                        other selling holder from and against any losses,
                        claims, damages or liabilities to which the Seller, such
                        controlling person, any such officer or director or any
                        other selling holder may become subject under the
                        Securities Act or the applicable securities laws or
                        otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
                        liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of
                        or are based upon (x) any untrue statement or alleged
                        untrue statement of any material fact contained in any
                        registration statement under which such Registrable
                        Shares were registered or qualified under the Securities
                        Act, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (y) the
                        omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
                        fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
                        the statements therein not misleading, which untrue
                        statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
                        alleged omission was made therein in reliance upon and
                        in conformity with written information furnished to the
                        Seller through an instrument duly executed by the
                        Purchaser specifically for use in preparation thereof,
                        and in each case shall reimburse the Seller, such
                        controlling person, each such officer or director and
                        any other selling holder for any legal or other expenses
                        reasonably incurred by them in connection with
                        investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage
                        or liability (or action in respect thereof).

                  c.    Promptly after receipt by a person entitled to
                        indemnification under this Article 3.2F (an "Indemnified
                        Party") of notice of the commencement of any action or
                        claim relating to any registration statement filed under
                        the provisions of this Article 3 or as to which
                        indemnity may be sought hereunder, such Indemnified
                        Party shall, if a claim for indemnification hereunder in
                        respect thereof is to be made against any other party
                        hereto (an "Indemnifying Party"), give written notice to
                        such Indemnifying Party of the commencement of such
                        action or claim, but the omission so to notify the
                        Indemnifying Party will not relieve such person from any
                        liability that such person may have to any Indemnified
                        Party otherwise than pursuant to the provisions of this
                        Article 3.2F and shall also not relieve the Indemnifying
                        Party of such party's

                                     - 14 -
<PAGE>
                        obligations under this Article 3.2F, except to the
                        extent that the omission so to notify results in the
                        Indemnifying Party being damaged solely as a result of
                        the failure to give timely notice. In case any such
                        action is brought against an Indemnified Party, and such
                        party notifies an Indemnifying Party of the commencement
                        thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled (at
                        such party's own expense) to participate in and, to the
                        extent that the Indemnifying Party may wish, jointly
                        with any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified, to
                        assume the defense, with counsel satisfactory to such
                        Indemnified Party, of such action and/or to settle such
                        action and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to
                        such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the
                        defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be
                        liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other
                        expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party
                        in connection with the defense thereof, other than the
                        reasonable cost of investigation; provided, however,
                        that no Indemnifying Party and no Indemnified Party
                        shall enter into any settlement agreement that would
                        impose any liability on such other party or parties
                        without the prior written consent of such other party or
                        parties, unless such other party or parties are fully
                        indemnified to such party's satisfaction, as the case
                        may be, against any such liability.

                  d.    If for any reason the indemnification provided for in
                        this Article 3 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or
                        is insufficient to hold it harmless as contemplated by
                        this Article 3, then the Indemnifying Party shall
                        contribute to the amount paid or payable by the
                        Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim,
                        damage, liability or action in such proportion as is
                        appropriate to reflect to only the relative benefits
                        received by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
                        Party, but also the relative fault of the Indemnified
                        Party and the Indemnifying Party, as well as any other
                        relevant equitable considerations. No person guilty of
                        fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
                        Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled
                        to contribution from any person who was not guilty of
                        such fraudulent misrepresentation.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      4.1.  No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of
            any party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power or remedy
            hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
            partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any
            other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of

                                     - 15 -
<PAGE>
            any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The remedies herein
            provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided
            by law.

      4.2.  Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Any provision in the Agreement to
            the contrary notwithstanding, and except as hereinafter provided,
            changes in, termination or amendments of or additions to this
            Agreement may be made, and compliance with any covenant or provision
            set forth herein may be omitted or waived, if the Seller shall
            obtain consent thereto in writing from the Purchaser. Any waiver or
            consent may be given subject to satisfaction of conditions stated
            therein and any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
            specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

      4.3.  Addresses for Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other
            communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including
            telegraphic communication) and mailed, telegraphed or delivered to
            each applicable party at the address set forth herein or at such
            other address as to which such party may inform the other parties in
            writing in compliance with the terms of this Article. All such
            notices, requests, demands and other communications shall be
            considered to be effective when delivered.

      4.4.  Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Seller shall pay any and all stamp,
            or other similar taxes payable or determined to be payable in
            connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement , the
            issuance of any securities and the other instruments and documents
            to be delivered hereunder or thereunder (other than taxes on the
            Purchaser's income), and agrees to save the Purchaser harmless from
            and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting
            from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes.

      4.5.  Effectiveness; Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be
            binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Seller and the
            Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns; provided,
            that, the Seller may not assign any of its rights or obligations
            under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the
            Purchaser. The Purchaser may assign all or any part of its rights
            and obligations hereunder to any person who acquires any Shares
            owned by the Seller subject to the conditions of this Agreement and
            the assumption by the assignee of any obligations relating to the
            rights assigned.

      4.6.  Prior Agreements. This Agreement and other documents executed and
            delivered in connection herewith constitute the entire agreement
            between the parties and supersede any prior understandings or
            agreements concerning the subject matter hereof.

      4.7.  Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and, in
            the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine
            that any one or more of the provisions or part of a provision
            contained herein shall, for any reason, be held

                                     - 16 -
<PAGE>
            to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
            invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any
            other provision or part of a provision of the Agreement and the
            terms of the Shares shall be reformed and construed as if such
            invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of a
            provision, had never been contained herein, and such provisions or
            part reformed so that it would be valid, legal and enforceable to
            the maximum extent possible.

      4.8.  Governing Law; Venue.

            A.    This Agreement shall be enforced, governed and construed in

                  suit, action or proceeding pertaining to this Agreement or any
                  transaction relating hereto shall be brought to the courts of

                  States of America.

            B.    Seller hereby waives, and agrees not to assert against the
                  Purchaser, or any successor assignee thereof, by way of
                  motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any such suit, action
                  or proceeding, (i) any claim that the Seller is not personally
                  subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, and
                  (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, any claim that

                  is improper or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or
                  by such courts.

            thereof.

      4.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
