own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as currently

         3.2 AUTHORIZATION. All corporate action on the part of the Company
necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder, and the
authorization, issuance and delivery of the Notes and Replacement Warrants has
been taken or will be taken on or prior to the Closing. This Agreement
constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of
general application affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally,
(b) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance,
injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and (c) to the extent the
indemnification provisions contained in this Agreement may be limited by
applicable federal or state securities laws.

         3.3 VALID ISSUANCE. The Notes, the Replacement Warrants and the shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the
Replacement Warrants have been duly authorized and, when issued, sold and
delivered to the Investors after payment therefore in accordance with the terms
hereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and, assuming the
accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investors set forth at
Section 4.6 of this Agreement, will be issued in compliance with all applicable
federal and state securities laws and will be free of all Liens or other
encumbrances other than as set forth in the legends contained in Section 4.8 of
this Agreement.

         3.4 SEC DOCUMENTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The financial statements
included in the SEC Documents are hereafter collectively referred to as the
"FINANCIAL STATEMENTS." The balance sheet contained in the Company's quarterly
report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 shall be referred
herein as the "COMPANY BALANCE SHEET" and the date of such balance sheet shall
be referred to herein as the "COMPANY BALANCE SHEET DATE." The balance sheets
included in the Financial Statements (including any related notes and schedules)
presents fairly the financial position of the Company as of its date, and the
other financial statements included in the Financial Statements (including any
related notes and schedules) present fairly the results of operations or other
information included therein of the Company for the periods or as of the dates
therein set forth (subject, in the case of interim financial statements, to
normal year-end adjustments), and each of the Financial Statements was prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
during the periods involved (except as otherwise stated therein and except that
interim financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles).

         3.5 NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE. Since the Company Balance Sheet Date,
except as set forth in the Company's SEC Documents (a) there has been no
material adverse change in the business, properties, results of operations or
financial condition of the Company, whether or not arising in the ordinary
course of business, and (b) there has been no dividend or distribution of any
kind declared, paid or made by the Company on any class of its capital stock.

<PAGE>

         3.6 ACCESS TO INFORMATION. Prior to the Closing, the Company will
provide to the Investor, its officers, employees and professional
representatives such information as such persons from time to time may
reasonably request with respect to the Company and prior to the Closing shall
permit the Investor, its officers, employees and professional representatives
reasonable access, during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice, to
the properties, books and records of the Company as the Investor from time to
time may reasonably request.

         3.7 PRIVATE OFFERING3.8 . Neither the Company nor any authorized Person
acting on its behalf has, in connection with the offer, sale, exchange or
issuance of the Securities, engaged in (i) any form of general solicitation or
general advertising (as those terms are used within the meaning of Rule 502(c)
under the Securities Act), (ii) any action involving a public offering within
the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, or (iii) any action that
would require the registration under the Securities Act of the offering, sale,
exchange or issuance of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or that would
violate applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws. The Company has not made
and will not prior to the Closing Date make, directly or indirectly, any offer
or sale of the Securities, or of securities of the same or similar class as the
Securities if, as a result, the offer and sale contemplated hereby would fail to
be entitled to exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act. As used herein, the terms "offer" and "sale" have the meanings specified in
Section 2(3) of the Securities Act.

         4. EACH INVESTOR, SEVERALLY AND NOT JOINTLY, HEREBY REPRESENTS AND
WARRANTS TO THE COMPANY THAT:

         4.1 AUTHORIZATION. The Investor has all requisite power and authority
to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that this
Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Investor
except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws of general application affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally, (b) as limited by laws relating to the availability
of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and (c)
to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in this Agreement may be
limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

         4.2 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. The Securities and Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Replacement Warrant to
be purchased by the Investor will be acquired for investment for the Investor's
own account, and not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or
distribution of any part thereof, and the Investor has no present intention of
selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The
Investor is not a party to any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement
with any person to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Securities
or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the
Replacement Warrant purchased by it.

         4.3 RELIANCE UPON INVESTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS. The Investor understands
that the issuance and sale of the Securities and Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Note or exercise of the Replacement Warrant will not be
registered under the Securities Act on the ground that such issuance and sale
will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 506

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

of Regulation D and/or Section 4(2) thereof, and that the Company's reliance on
such exemption is based on each Investor's representations set forth herein. The
Investor realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if,
notwithstanding such representations, any Investor has in mind merely acquiring
the securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or for a market
rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. Such Investor has no such present
intention.

         4.4 RECEIPT OF INFORMATION. The Investor has had an opportunity to ask
questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and
conditions of the issuance and sale of the Securities and Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Replacement Warrant and the
business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company and to
obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such
information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense)
necessary to verify the accuracy of any information furnished to it or to which
it had access. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the
representations and warranties of the Company in Section 3 of this Agreement or
the right of the Investor to rely thereon. No person other that the Company has
been authorized to give any information or to give any representation not
contained in this Agreement in connection with the Offering and, if given or
made, such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been
authorized by the Company.

         4.5 INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE. The Investor is experienced in evaluating
and investing in securities of companies and acknowledges that it is able to
fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities.

         4.6 ACCREDITED INVESTOR. The Investor is an "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" as
such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the
Securities Act.

         4.7 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Investor understands that the Securities
or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the
Replacement Warrant may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of
without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and
that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the
Securities or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of
the Replacement Warrant or an available exemption from registration under the
Securities Act, the Securities or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Note or exercise of the Replacement Warrant must be held indefinitely. In
particular, the Investor is aware that the Securities or Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Replacement Warrant may not be
sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act unless all of the
conditions of that Rule are met. Among the conditions for use of Rule 144 is the
availability of current information to the public about the Company.

         5. RESTRICTED TRANSFERABILITY.

         5.1 LEGENDS. Each certificate or other document evidencing the
Securities or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of
the Replacement Warrant shall be endorsed with the legends set forth below, and
the Investor covenants that, except to the extent such restrictions are waived
by the Company, the Investor shall not transfer the shares represented by any
such certificate without complying with the restrictions on transfer described
in the legends endorsed on such certificate:

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

                  (a) The following legend under the Act:

         "THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED IN THIS AGREEMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
         UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR THE
         SECURITIES LAWS OF CERTAIN STATES, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD,
         TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT
         PURSUANT TO (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND
         ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAWS, (ii) TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, RULE 144
         UNDER THE ACT (OR ANY SIMILAR RULE UNDER THE ACT RELATING TO THE
         DISPOSITION OF SECURITIES), OR (iii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IF SUCH
         OPINION SHALL BE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO COUNSEL TO THE ISSUER, THAT
         AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE LAW
         IS AVAILABLE."

                  (b) Such other legends as may be required under state
securities laws.

         5.2 PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Notwithstanding Section 4.3 or
anything contained in this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees that each
Investor shall have "piggyback" registration rights entitling such Investor to
include any and all of the shares issued to such Investor upon conversion of the
Notes or exercise of the Replacement Warrants in any future registration of any
shares of the Company. The Company shall give each Investor at least ten (10)
days' prior written notice for any proposed registration of the Company's shares
in order for such Investor to determine whether any or all of the shares issued
to Investor upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Replacement Warrants
shall be included therein. The Company's obligations pursuant to this Section
5.2 shall terminate as to any Investor on the earlier to occur of: (a) the
second anniversary of the date of issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion
of the Notes or exercise of the Replacement Warrants and (b) such time when all
Common Stock held by the Investor may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act during any three (3) month period.

         5.3 INDEMNIFICATION.

                  (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each
Investor (and each person, if any, who controls such Investor within the meaning
of section 15 of the Securities Act) from and against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities to which such Investor (or such person, if any, who
controls such Investor within the meaning of section 15 of the Securities Act)
may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

thereof) arise out of, or are based upon (i) a material breach of any term of
this Agreement, the Notes and the Warrants, or (ii) the material breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement, the Notes and the
Warrants. The Company will reimburse such Investor (and each person, if any, who
controls such Investor within the meaning of section 15 of the Securities Act)
for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating,
defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent
that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of, or is based upon the
breach by any Investor to comply with its representations, warranties, covenants
and agreements contained in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold the Company
harmless from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which
the Company may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar
as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in
respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon a material breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement, the Notes and the
Warrants. The Investor will reimburse the Company for any reasonable legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to
defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the
Investor shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss,
claim, damage or liability arises out of, or is based upon the breach by the
Company to comply with its representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
contained in this Agreement.

         6. MISCELLANEOUS.

         6.1 REASONABLE EFFORTS; OTHER ACTIONS. Subject to the terms and

the written consent of the party against whom such waiver is sought to be
enforced. No waiver by either party of any default with respect to any

incurred by Investors in connection with the negotiation and documentation of

Stock upon conversion of the Note if such issuance, when added to the number of

Warrants, would equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the total number of
Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of such conversion without first
obtaining the approval of its voting shareholders to such issuance in accordance
