necessary to verify that the Shares are duly issued in the name of Purchaser and
providing other reasonable information that is necessary in order for the
Purchaser to consummate the funding at the Closing and to satisfy the conditions
of Article IV. The Company shall also make available its principal financial
officer (as set forth in SEC Reports) for purposes of providing additional
information and verification of factual matters to third party correspondent
Banks, SICAV administrators or managers or Custodial Banks, from the Agreement
Date and onward as set forth below.

2.3      Delivery of Certificates Representing of Shares. The Company shall
deliver to the Custodial Bank (i) within five (5) Business Days of the date of
the Agreement Date (if they have not been delivered yet), a certificate or
certificates evidencing a number of Shares equal to the Purchaser's Subscription
Amount set forth in paragraph 2.1 (a)(i), registered in the name of the
Purchaser and (ii) within five (5) Business Days of the date of determination
thereof, Certificates evidencing all Additional Shares it is required to deliver
pursuant to 2.4.

2.4      Purchaser Downside Protection.

               (a) The Securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement are being
issued at a discount because the Shares are illiquid and subject to Regulation S
and therefore subject to a Restricted Period of twelve months beginning on the
Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the securities may be encumbered
prior to such time for purposes of obtaining a valuation of such shares and
obtaining a SICAV certificate in exchange for obtaining a valuation of such
Shares and the deposit of such Shares.

               (b) Pre-Closing Adjustments.

                     If, during any 30 day consecutive period prior to the
Closing Date ("Loss Calculation Period"), the per share daily weighted average
closing median price (between bid and asked) of the Company's Common Stock as
quoted on the NASDAQ or the OTC Bulletin Board market (the "Adjusted Average
Price") is below (but not greater than) $1.75 (adjusted for stock splits
recombination's and similar adjustment), then the following adjustments shall be
made:

<PAGE>

                     (i) If the occurrence of an event set forth in 2.4(b) above
occurs prior to Closing then, the Purchase Price Per Share shall be reduced to
equal the Adjusted Average Price multiplied by .8 and the Company shall, at its
discretion and presuming all of the other conditions for Closing are met, either
(A) reduce the aggregate Purchase Price to be paid at Closing to reflect the new
Purchase Price Per Share multiplied by 1,575,429 or (B) increase the number of
Shares to be acquired by issuing Additional Shares such that the total number of
Shares issued at Closing multiplied by the new Purchase Price Per Share (i.e. .8
multiplied by the Adjusted Average Price), equals the Purchase Price. The
determination of the number of Warrants, Consulting Warrants and the Exercise
Prices of the Consulting Warrants shall be made at Closing based on the actions
of the Company taken in accordance with this Sub-Section 2.4(b (i).

                     (ii) There shall be no further adjustments for Purchase
Price or Additional Shares issued after Closing.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall be deemed
a waiver of any parties rights to terminate this Agreement altogether or to not
commence with a Closing if the conditions to such Closing set forth elsewhere in
the Agreement have not been duly satisfied or waived in writing.

                                  ARTICLE III

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

3.1      Representations and Warranties of the Company and Subsidiaries. As a
mutual inducement to the Purchaser to enter into and perform its obligations
under this Agreement, the Company represents and warrants to Purchaser that the
statements contained in this Article III are true and correct, except as set
forth in the corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedule set forth as
Schedule III hereto. All representations, warranties and covenants of the
Company include the Company and all of its Subsidiaries unless the context
require otherwise.

               (a) Organization and Qualification. The Company is duly
incorporated or otherwise organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization (as
applicable) set forth above, with the requisite power and authority to own and
use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently
conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Company is not in violation of
any of the provisions of its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or
other organizational or charter documents (collectively, the "Company
Documents"). The Company is duly qualified to conduct business and is 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, would not have or reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect.

               (b) 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 hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of each of the
Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all
necessary action on the part of the Company (including, without limitation, any
and all bank or stockholder consents required under the Company Documents, law,
or any rules of any exchange, Self Regulatory Organization ("SRO") or regulatory
authority to which the Company is subject) 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, assuming the valid execution and delivery
thereof by the Purchaser, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of
the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. The
Warrants and Consulting Warrants are each fully enforceable against the Company
and do not violate any usury rule, statute or law to which the Company is
subject.

<PAGE>

               (c) 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 or give rise to modification or to any person's securities of the
Company (or an increase or right to increase of such securities or in the voting
or other rights in the Company or with any provision of the Company Documents,
or (ii) conflict with, violate 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 termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or
without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility,
equity or credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Company debt)
to which the Company is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company
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 is subject (including
federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or
asset of the Company is bound or affected, or (iv) result in the delisting of
the Company's Securities from any exchange or trading Market (such as the OTC:
Bulletin Board) on which it is trading on the Agreement Date; except in the case
of each of clauses (ii),(iii) and (iv), such as would not have or reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Company's Board has
determined that the Purchase Price represent a fair and accurate value for the
Common Stock and Warrants and Consulting Warrant and that the discount to the
market price of the Common Stock is fair and reasonable based on the illiquidity
of the Shares and Warrants and Warrant Shares at the time of issuance.

               (d) 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, such regulatory authority, exchange automated
quotation of listing source (such as NASDAQ of the OTC Bulletin Board market) or
other Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the
Company of the Transaction Documents, other than (i) the filing with the
Commission of the Registration Statement which shall only be necessary for
purposes of re-sale of Shares and Warrant Shares in the United States, and
applicable Blue Sky filings, (ii) such consents as have already been obtained or
such exemptive filings as are required to be made under applicable securities
laws, and (iii) such other filings as may be required following the Closing Date
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and corporate law, from time to time.

               (e) Issuance of the Securities. The Securities are duly
authorized. The Shares, when issued and paid for in accordance with this
Agreement at Closing, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non
assessable, and free and clear of all Liens. The Warrant Shares, upon issuance,
upon due exercise of the respective Warrants, will be, validly issued, fully
paid non-assessable in all respects and free and clear of all Liens. The Company
has reserved from its duly authorized capital stock the Warrant Shares plus
maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this
Agreement and additional securities that may be issued under the provisions of
the Warrants.

               (f) Capitalization. The capitalization of the Company (which

most recent SEC Report filed with the Commission, as supplemented by the
Disclosure Schedule. The Company has not issued any capital stock since the date

or as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule. 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, other
than as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule and which right shall be complied
with prior to Closing. Except as a result of the purchase and sale of the
Securities, or set forth on the Disclosure Schedule or the SEC Reports, there
are no outstanding options, warrants, script rights to subscribe to, calls or

obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right

subsidiary), 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 issuance and sale of the Securities or execution by the Company of
any of the Transaction Documents, will not obligate the Company to issue shares
of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Purchaser and
Consultant) 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. The Subsidiaries each wholly owned by the parent company and no
subscriptions, commitments of options, warrants or other rights to purchase any
securities of any Subsidiary are outstanding, other than as set forth in the
Disclosure Schedule.

respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and
the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and none of
the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact
or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of the Company
included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable
accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with
respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements

applied on a consistent basis during the periods covered ("GAAP"), except as may
be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and

effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company under the

of such person to conduct business in the securities financial industry, or that

               (j) Labor Relations. Except as set forth on the Disclosure
Schedule, no material labor dispute exists or, to the knowledge of the Company,
is imminent with respect to any of the employees of the Company.

               (k) Compliance. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the
Company (i) is not in default under or in violation of (and no event has
occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would result in a default by the Company), nor is the Company aware of any
notice or claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any
indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to
which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or
not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is not in violation of any
order of any court, S.R.O., exchange, Commission, arbitrator or governmental
body, or (iii) is not in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any
governmental authority, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state
and local laws applicable to its business.

               (l) Regulatory Permits. The Company possess all certificates,
authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or
foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct its "business" as described
in the SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess such permits would not
have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect ("Material
Permits"), and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating
to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.

               (m) Title to Assets. The Company has good and marketable title in
fee simple to all real property owned by the Company that is material to the
business of the Company and good and marketable title in all personal property
that is material to the business of the Company, free and clear of all Liens,
except for Liens as do not materially affect the value of such property and do

               (n) Patents and Trademarks. The Company has the right to use all
patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks,
trade names, copyrights, licenses and other similar rights that are necessary or
material for use in connection with their respective businesses as described in
the SEC Reports and which the failure to so have could have or reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, other than intellectual
property rights generally available on commercial terms from other sources
(collectively, the "Intellectual Property Rights"). The Company has not received
a written notice that and has no reason to believe that the Intellectual
Property Rights used by the Company violate or infringe upon the rights of any
Person. The Company has taken all steps reasonably required in accordance with
sound business practice and sound business judgment to establish and preserve
its ownership of such Intellectual Property Rights.

<PAGE>

               (o) Insurance. The Company has the insurance policies described
in the Disclosure Schedule. The Company believes that such insurance is
underwritten by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such
losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the
businesses in which the Company is engaged. The Company has no reason to believe
that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when
such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may
be necessary to continue its business without a significant increase in cost.

               (p) Internal Accounting Controls. The Company maintains a system
of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that
(i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or
specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain
asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance
with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded
accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The
Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Company and designed such
disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating
to the Company is made known to the certifying officers by others within those
entities, particularly during the period in which the Company's SEC Report for
the period in question is being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have
evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of a
date within sixty (60) days prior to the filing date of the Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended June 30, 2006 (and such other SEC Report(s) as may be filed prior
to Closing) (such date, the "Evaluation Date"). The Company presented in its
most recently filed SEC Report the conclusions of the certifying officers about
the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their
evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have
been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls (as such term is
defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K or S-B under the Exchange Act) or, to
the Company's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the
Company's internal controls.

               (q) Certain Fees. With the sole exception of fees payable to the
Consultant (the "Consultant") no brokerage or finder's fees or commissions are
or will be payable by the Company to any broker, financial advisor or
consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company
will pay the Consultant a cash fee equal to seven percent (7%) of the Purchase
Price and Consulting Warrants equal to seven percent (7%) of the Shares
(including Additional Shares) purchased by the Purchaser which shall be
exercisable at the Class A Exercise Price. The Consulting Warrant shall have a
cashless exercise feature and be otherwise identical to and have all of the
other rights of the Class A Warrants. The Purchasers shall have no obligation
with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of
other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due
under any agreement or arrangement entered into by the Company in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. All fees paid by the
Company to a Consultant shall only be made to NASD member firms or to persons
exempt from such licensing requirements. As an alternative to the foregoing, if
for any reason the Consultant cannot be paid by the Company, the Purchase Price
shall be reduced by 7% and the Consulting Warrants shall be issued directly to
the Purchaser, and the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations
under this subsection (q).

               (r) Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchaser's
representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, and the accuracy of the
representations of the Company, no registration under the Securities Act is
required for the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the
Purchaser as contemplated hereby.

<PAGE>

               (s) Investment Company. The Company is not, and is not an
Affiliate of, an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended.

               (t) Registration Rights. Except as set forth on the Disclosure
Schedule, no Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company.

               (u) Form SB-2 Eligibility. The Company is eligible to register
the resale of its Common Stock by the Purchaser under Form SB-2 promulgated
under the Securities Act.

               (v) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Company has not, in
the 12 months preceding the date hereof (and the date of Closing), received
notice from the OTC Bulletin Board to the effect that the Company is not in
compliance with the requirements of the OTC Bulletin Board to maintain quotation
or listing of the Common Stock. The Company is not aware of any, and has not
received a warning notice or letter or provisional notice of delisting probation
or otherwise with respect to listing of its securities and the ticker symbol of
the Company is not supplement (or threatened to be supplemented) with any
provisional "letter" (such as an "E").

               (w) Application of Takeover Protections. To the Company's
knowledge, the Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary
action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any non-statutory 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 Purchaser as a
result of the Purchaser and the Company fulfilling their obligations or
exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without
limitation the Company's issuance of the Securities and payment to the
Consultants, and the Purchaser's ownership of the Securities.

               (x) Disclosure. The Company confirms that the Company has not, as
of the date of this Agreement, provided the Purchasers or its agents or counsel
with any information that constitutes or might constitute material, non-public
information, unless the Purchaser has agreed to maintain the confidentiality of
such material, non-public information. The Company understands and confirms that
the Purchaser will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company.

               (y) No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Affiliates, nor, to the Company's knowledge, any Person acting on its or their
behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or
solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause
this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the
Company in a manner that violates Section 5 of the Securities Act.

               (z) Non-Exclusivity. The Company represents and warrants that it
has entered into this Agreement on an arms-length basis. The Company understands
and acknowledges that a Closing will only be held on a delayed basis and that no
guaranty or assurance can be made that a Closing will occur as anticipated or
not at all or that the full Subscription Amount of Shares will be acquired. The
Company is not relying on this funding to continue its operations or business
and Purchaser will not be held responsible for the loss of profits or lost
opportunity of the Company if the funding does not occur for any reason.

               (aa) Certain Transactions. Except for arm's length transactions
pursuant to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes payments in the
ordinary course of business upon terms no less favorable then the Company or its
subsidiaries could obtain from third parties, none of the officers, directors or
employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the
Company or any of its subsidiaries (other then for services as employees,
officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement
providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real
or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any
officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of any executive officer
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any corporation, partnership, trust
or other entity in which any officer, director or any such employee has a
substantial interest or is an Affiliate.

<PAGE>

3.2      Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby
represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the
Company as follows:

               (a) Organization; Authority; Conflicts. Purchaser is an entity
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization set forth above with full right, corporate or
partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its
obligations thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action on the part of the Purchaser. Each Transaction
Document to which it is party has been duly executed by Purchaser, and when
delivered by Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the
valid and legally binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable against it in
accordance with its terms. The execution, delivery and performance by the
Purchaser of this Agreement and compliance herewith, will not result in any
violation of and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of any of the
terms of, or constitute a default under, any provision of any mortgage,
indenture, agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, order, law, rule or
regulation or other restriction to which Purchaser is a party or by which it is
bound, which violation, conflict, breach or default would have a material
adverse effect upon the business or operations of the Purchaser, or result in
the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of
the properties or assets of the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Purchaser has not yet obtained a valuation with respect to the Shares or a
commitment from any bank that said Shares will be accepted for deposit into
SICAV in exchange for SICAV Certificates or as to the date for value of the
SICAV Certificates that will be issuable after deposit of the Shares into the
SICAV. The parties understand that Purchaser is dependent on obtaining favorable
valuation and issuance of a SICAV Certificate with a value sufficient enough for
it to receive funding to cover the Purchase Price as one of its conditions to
its obligation to pay the Purchase Price at the Closing.

               (b) Investment Intent. Purchaser understands that the Shares and
Warrants are "restricted securities" and have not been registered under the
Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and Purchaser is acquiring
the Securities as principal for its own account for investment purposes only and
not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Shares and Warrants or
any part thereof, has no present intention of distributing any of such Shares
and Warrants and has no arrangement or understanding with any other persons
regarding the distribution of such Shares and Warrant Shares (this
representation and warranty not limiting the Purchaser's right to sell the
Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement or otherwise in
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws or pursuant to
Resolutions or other exemptions to the representation requirements of such
laws). Purchaser is acquiring the Shares and Warrants hereunder in the ordinary
course of its business. Purchaser does not have any agreement or understanding,
directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of the Securities,
other than the agreement(s) by which such Shares will be held by the Custodial
Bank (or other agent or designees of a Custodial Bank) or which holds such
shares for the SICAV. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Warrants may be held by an
affiliate or transferee of the Purchaser at any time.

               (c) Purchaser Status. At the time the Purchaser was offered the
Securities, it was, and at the date hereof it is, an "accredited investor" as
defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. The Purchaser's place of
business is outside of the United States. The Purchaser was not formed for the
specific purpose of acquiring the Securities. The general business of the
Purchaser does not require it to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section
15 of the Exchange Act.

               (d) Experience of the Purchaser. Purchaser, either alone or
together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and
experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so
evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. The Purchaser had access to
the SEC Reports and has carefully reviewed the information contained therein.

<PAGE>

               (e) General Solicitation. Purchaser is not purchasing the
Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other
communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or
similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar
or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

               (f) Reliance by Company. The Purchaser understands that the
Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions
from the registration and qualification requirements of United States federal
and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and
accuracy of, and the Purchaser's compliance with the representations,
warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set
forth herein or in the Registration Rights Agreement in order to determine the
availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire
the Securities.

               (g) No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. The Purchaser understands
that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented to the Purchaser
in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities constitutes legal,
tax or investment advice. The Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and
investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or
appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Securities.

               (h) Risk and Suitability. The Purchaser acknowledges and realizes
that Purchaser's purchase of the Securities involves a high degree of risk and
the Purchaser could lose a substantial portion or all of its investment in the
Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Company anticipates, based on
currently proposed plans and assumptions relating to its operations, that the
proceeds of this Offering will provide sufficient working capital to meet the
Company's needs (including the costs of maintaining correspondence with the
periodic filing of all required SEC Reports, as the same become due) for at
least the next 18 months. In the event that the Company's plans change or its
assumptions change or prove to be inaccurate, the Company would be required to
seek additional financing sooner than anticipated. There can be no assurance
that the Company will achieve cash flow from operations sufficient to satisfy
its working capital requirements, or at all, or that additional financing will
be available to the Company on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company does not make and has not
made any representations and warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby other than those set forth in Section 3.1 hereof.

               (i) Regulation S. Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (A)
the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, are being sold in
reliance upon an exemption from registration afforded by Regulation S; and that
such Shares have not been registered with any state securities commission or
authority; (B) pursuant to the requirements of Regulation S, the Shares may not
be transferred, sold or otherwise exchanged unless in compliance with the
provisions of Regulation S and/or pursuant to registration under the Securities
Act, or pursuant to an available exemption thereunder; and (C) Purchaser is
under no obligation to register the Shares under the Securities Act or any state
securities law.

         Purchaser is not a U.S. person and is not acquiring the Shares for the
account of any U.S. person; (A) no director or executive officer of Purchaser is
a national or citizen of the United States; and (B) it is not otherwise deemed
to be a "U.S. Person" within the meaning of Regulation S.

         Purchaser was not formed specifically for the purpose of acquiring the
Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement.

<PAGE>

         Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for its own account and risk and not
for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person as defined in Regulation S and no
other person has any interest in or participation in the Shares or any right,
option, security interest, pledge or other interest in or to the Shares.
Purchaser understands, acknowledges and agrees that it must bear the economic
risk of its investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time and that
prior to any such offer or sale, the Company may require, as a condition to
effecting a transfer of the Shares, an opinion of counsel, acceptable to the
company, as to the registration or exemption there from under the Securities Act
and any state securities acts, if applicable.

         Purchaser will, after the expiration of the Restricted Period, as set
forth under Regulation S Rule 903(b)(3)(iii)(A), offer, sell, pledge or
otherwise transfer the Shares only in accordance with Regulation S, or pursuant
to an available exemption under the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws or following the Effective Date of a Registration of the Shares
by the Company. The transactions contemplated by this Agreement have neither
been pre-arranged with a purchaser who is in the U.S. or who is a U.S. Person,
nor are they part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of
the United States federal securities laws.

         The offer leading to the sale evidenced hereby was made in an "offshore
transaction." For purposes of Regulation S, Purchaser understands that an
"offshore transaction" as defined under Regulation S is any offer or sale not
made to a person in the United States and either (A) at the time the buy order
is originated, the purchaser is outside the United States, or the seller or any
person acting on his behalf reasonably believes that the purchaser is outside
the United States; or (B) for purposes of (1) Rule 903 of Regulation S, the
transaction is executed in, or on or through a physical trading floor of an
established foreign exchange that is located outside the United States or (2)
Rule 904 of Regulation S, the transaction is executed in, on or through the
facilities of a designated offshore securities market, and neither the seller
nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been
prearranged with a buyer in the U.S.

         Neither the Purchaser nor any affiliate or any person acting on the
Purchaser's behalf, has made or is aware of any "directed selling efforts" in
the United States, which is defined in Regulation S to be any activity
undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the
effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for any of the Shares
being purchased hereby.

         Purchaser understands that the Company is the seller of the Shares
which are the subject of this Agreement, and that, for purpose of Regulation S,
a "distributor" is any underwriter, dealer or other person who participates,
pursuant to a contractual arrangement, in the distribution of securities offered
or sold in reliance on Regulation S and that an "affiliate" is any partner,
officer, director or any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled
by or under common control with any person in question. Purchaser agrees that
Purchaser will not, during the Restricted Period set forth under Rule
903(b)(iii)(A), act as a distributor, either directly or though any affiliate,
nor shall it sell, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey the Shares other
than to a non-U.S. Person.

               (j) No Governmental Review. The Purchaser understands that no
United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental
agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities
or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities nor have such
authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the
Securities.

               (k) Residency. The Purchaser is not organized in the United
States and does not maintain its principal place of business in the United
States.

               (l) Requirements of Foreign Jurisdictions. The Purchaser
acknowledges, represents and agrees that no activity has been or will be taken
in any jurisdiction outside the United States by the Company for Consultant that
would permit an offering of the Shares, or possession or distribution of
offering materials in connection with the issue of the Shares, in any
jurisdiction outside the United States where action for that purpose is
required.

<PAGE>

               (m) Non-Affiliate Status; Other Purchaser Representations. The
Purchaser has had no officer, voting director or similar position, office or
other similar relationship within the past three years with the Company. The
Purchaser is not an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the
Exchange Act) of any director or officer of the Company for purposes of Rule
4350(i)(1)(A) of the NASD, Inc. Marketplace Rules. Neither the Purchaser, nor
any group of which it is a member or to which it is related, beneficially owns
(including the right to acquire or vote) Common Stock of the Company
constituting more than 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares of Common Stock.
The Purchaser is aware of the requirements of the anti-manipulation rules under
the Exchange Act including, without limitation, Regulation M. Before the
Registration Statement is declared effective, the Purchaser will not enter into
any plan, arrangement or understanding with any broker-dealer, agent, market
maker or underwriter regarding sales of the shares purchased in the Offering
without providing notice to the Company other than as contemplated for the
financing and managing of such Shares through SICAV.

notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the
Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section

following the Closing Date sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or

Securities in violation of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market.
