 liabilities, or in the business or condition, financial or otherwise, or in
 the results of operations or prospects, of the Company and its subsidiaries

 financial statements do not contain notes and may be subject to normal audit
 adjustments and normal annual adjustments.  Such financial statements fairly
 present in all material respects the financial condition of the Company and
 its Subsidiaries at the dates indicated and the consolidated results of
 their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended and, except as
 indicated therein, reflect all claims against and all Debts and liabilities
 of the Company and its Subsidiaries, fixed or contingent.

 a reasonable possibility of an adverse decision which could be reasonably
 expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which challenges the validity
 of any of the Transaction Agreements.

 ARTICLE 4.9  Compliance with ERISA and other Benefit Plans .

      (a)  Each member of the ERISA Group has fulfilled its obligations under
 the minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Code with respect to each
 Plan and is in compliance in all material respects with the presently
 applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan.  No
 member of the ERISA Group has (i) sought a waiver of the minimum funding
 standard under Section 412 of the Code in respect of any Plan, (ii) failed
 to make any required contribution or payment to any Plan or Multiemployer
 Plan or in respect of any Benefit Arrangement, or made any amendment to any

 expected to result in the imposition of a Lien or the posting of a bond or
 other security under ERISA or the Code or (iii) incurred any liability under
 Title IV of ERISA other than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under

 where required by, and are in good standing in all material respects under,
 all applicable laws.  All required employer and employee contributions and
 premiums under the Benefit Plans to the date hereof have been made, the
 respective fund or funds established under the Benefit Plans are funded in
 accordance with applicable laws, and no past service funding liabilities
 exist thereunder.

      (c)  No Benefit Plans have any unfunded liabilities, either on a
 "going concern" or "winding up" basis and determined in accordance with all
 applicable laws and actuarial practices and using actuarial assumptions and
 methods that are reasonable in the circumstances.  No event has occurred and
 no condition exists with respect to any Benefit Plans that has resulted or
 could reasonably be expected to result in any pension plan having its
 registration revoked or wound up (in whole or in part) or refused for the
 purposes of any applicable laws or being placed under the administration of
 any relevant pension benefits regulatory authority or being required to pay
 any taxes or penalties (in any material amounts) under any applicable laws.

 associated with Environmental Laws (including the cost of compliance

 or negotiate in respect thereof with, any Person or Persons so as thereby to
 cause the issuance or sale of any of the Securities to be in violation of
 any of the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act.  To the best

 liabilities of the Company or any Subsidiary of any kind whatsoever, whether

 of the Warrant in accordance with its terms, the Company will, and will use
 its best lawful efforts to cause its transfer agent to, issue one or more
 certificates representing shares of Common Stock in such name or names and
 in such denominations specified by a Purchaser in a Notice of Exercise.  The
 Company further warrants and agrees that no instructions other than these
 instructions have been or will be given to its transfer agent.  Nothing in
 this Section 7.11 shall affect in any way a Purchaser's obligation to comply
 with all securities laws applicable to Purchaser upon resale of such shares
 of Common Stock, including any prospectus delivery requirements.

 ARTICLE 7.12  Maintenance of Reporting Status; Supplemental Information .
 So long as any of the Securities are outstanding, the Company shall timely
 file all reports required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the
 Exchange Act.  The Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer
 required to file reports under the Exchange Act, even if the Exchange Act or
 the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.  If at
 anytime the Company is not subject to the requirements of Section 13 or
 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will promptly furnish at its expense,
 upon request, for the benefit of the holders from time to time of
 Securities, and prospective purchasers of Securities, information satisfying
 the information requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

                        ARTICLE 8.  NEGATIVE COVENANTS

     The Company hereby agrees that after the date hereof for so long as the
 Note remains outstanding and for the benefit of Purchaser:

 ARTICLE 8.1  Limitations on Debt or Other Liabilities .  Neither the
 Company nor any Subsidiary will create, incur, assume or suffer to exist (at
 any time after the Closing Date, after giving effect to the application of
 the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities), without the prior written
 consent of Purchaser, any Debt except (x) Debt incurred in a Permitted
 Financing, (y) Debt incurred in connection with equipment leases to which
 the Company or its Subsidiaries are a party incurred in the ordinary course
 of business; and (z) Debt incurred in connection with trade accounts
 payable, imbalances and refunds arising in the ordinary course of business.

 ARTICLE 8.2  Transactions with Affiliates .  The Company and each
 Subsidiary will not, directly or indirectly, pay any funds to or for the

 indebtedness, by loan, advance, transfer of property, guarantee or other
 agreement to pay, purchase or service, directly or indirectly, and Debt, or
 otherwise) in, lease, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any assets,
 tangible or intangible, to, or participate in, or effect any transaction in
 connection with any joint enterprise or other joint arrangement with, any
 Affiliate, except, (1) pursuant to those agreements specifically identified
 on Schedule 8.2 attached hereto (with a copy of such agreements annexed to
 such Schedule 8.2) and (2) on terms to the Company or such Subsidiary no
 less favorable than terms that could be obtained by the Company or such
 Subsidiary from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company upon
 negotiation at arms' length, as determined in good faith by the Board of
 Directors of the Company; provided that no determination of the Board of
 Directors shall be required with respect to any such transactions entered
 into in the ordinary course of business.

 ARTICLE 8.3  Merger or Consolidation .  The Company will not, in a
 single transaction or a series of related transactions (i) consolidate with

 such consolidation, merger or transfer complies with this Agreement, and
 that all conditions precedent in this Agreement relating to such transaction
 have been satisfied.

 ARTICLE 8.4  Limitation on Asset Sales .  Neither the Company nor any
 Subsidiary will consummate an Asset Sale of material assets of the Company

 Subsidiary (other than directors' qualifying shares), property or other
 assets (each referred to for the purpose of this definition as a

 amended, any provision of such entity's existing Debt, any material contract
 or agreement previously or hereafter filed by the Company with the

 Subsidiary Corporate Document if such amendment, in the Company's reasonable
 judgment, would materially adversely affect Purchaser or the holders of the
 Securities without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

 ARTICLE 8.6  Limitation on Stock Repurchases .  Except as otherwise set
 forth in the Note and the Warrant, the Company shall not, without the
 written consent of the Majority Holders, redeem, repurchase or otherwise

 or options to purchase or acquire any such shares.

                       ARTICLE 9.  RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS

 ARTICLE 9.1  Restrictions on Transfer .  From and after their respective
 dates of issuance, none of the Securities shall be transferable except upon
 the conditions specified in this Article IX, which conditions are intended
 to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act in respect of
 the Transfer of any of such Securities or any interest therein.  Purchaser
 will use its best efforts to cause any proposed transferee of any Securities
 held by it to agree to take and hold such Securities subject to the
 provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Article IX.

 ARTICLE 9.2  Legends.   The Note and Warrant shall bear restrictive
 legends in accordance with applicable securities laws.  The Conversion

 shall be freely tradeable and unrestricted.

 ARTICLE 9.3  Notice of Proposed Transfers .  Prior to any proposed
 Transfer of the Securities (other than a Transfer (i) registered or exempt
 from registration under the Securities Act, (ii) to an  affiliate of a
 Purchaser which is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule
 501(a) under the Securities Act, provided that any such transferee shall
 agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights
 Agreement, or (iii) to be made in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities
 Act), the holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company of such
 holder's intention to effect such Transfer, setting forth the manner and
 circumstances of the proposed Transfer, which shall be accompanied by (a) an
 opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company, confirming that
 such transfer does not give rise to a violation of the Securities Act, (B)
 representation letters in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
 Company to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and
 (C) letters in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company
 from each such transferee stating such transferee's agreement to be bound
 by the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.  Such
 proposed Transfer may be effected only if the Company shall have received
 such notice of transfer, opinion of counsel, representation letters and
 other letters referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, whereupon
 the holder of such Securities shall be entitled to Transfer such Securities
 in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by the holder to the
 Company.

             ARTICLE 10.  ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES

 ARTICLE 10.1  Liquidated Damages .

           (a)  The Company shall cause its transfer agent to, issue and
      deliver shares of Common Stock consistent with Section 7.11 hereof
      within three (3) New York Stock Exchange Trading Days of delivery of
      Notice of Exercise, (the "Deadline") to Purchaser (or any party
      receiving Securities by transfer from Purchaser) at the address of
      Purchaser set forth in the Notice of Exercise.  The Company understands
      that a delay in the issuance of such certificates after the Deadline
      could result in economic loss to Purchaser.

           (b)  Without in any way limiting Purchaser's right to pursue other
      remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the Company
      agrees that if delivery of the Conversion Shares is more than one (1)
      Business Day after the Deadline the Company shall pay to Purchaser, as
      liquidated damages and not as a penalty, $500 for each day that the
      Company fails to deliver such Common Stock.  Such cash amount shall be
      paid to Purchaser upon demand.

 ARTICLE 10.2  Intentionally Omitted .

 ARTICLE 10.3  Intentionally Omitted .

 ARTICLE 10.4  Registration Rights .  Upon a Payment Default on the Note,
 the Warrant Shares and any shares issuable upon conversion of the 2004 6%
 Debentures into which the Note is exchanged shall have the registration
 rights set forth in that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated as
 of November 8, 2002 between the Company and Purchaser.

                    ARTICLE 11.  ADJUSTMENT OF FIXED PRICE

 ARTICLE 11.1  Reorganization .  The exercise price of the Warrant
 (collectively, the "Fixed Price") shall be adjusted, as applicable, as
 hereafter provided.

 ARTICLE 11.2  Share Reorganization .  If and whenever the Company shall:

           (i)  subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
      greater number of shares;

           (ii)  consolidate the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
      smaller number of shares;

           (iii) issue Common Stock or securities convertible into or
      exchangeable for shares of Common Stock as a stock dividend to all or
      substantially all the holders of Common Stock; or

           (iv) make a distribution on the outstanding Common Stock to all or
      substantially all the holders of Common Stock payable in Common Stock
      or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock;

 any of such events being herein called a "Share Reorganization," then in
 each such case the applicable Fixed Price shall be adjusted, effective
 immediately after the record date at which the holders of Common Stock are
 determined for the purposes of the Share Reorganization or, if no record
 date is fixed, the effective date of the Share Reorganization, by
 multiplying the applicable Fixed Price in effect on such record or
 effective date, as the case may be, by a fraction of which:

           (i)  the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
      outstanding on such record or effective date (without giving effect to
      the transaction); and

           (II) the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
      outstanding after giving effect to such Share Reorganization,
      including, in the case of a distribution of securities convertible into
      or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of
      Common Stock that would have been outstanding if such securities had
      been converted into or exchanged for Common Stock on such record or
      effective date.

 ARTICLE 11.3  Capital Reorganization .  If and whenever there shall occur:

           (i)  a reclassification or redesignation of the shares of Common
      Stock or any change of the shares of Common Stock into other shares,
      other than in a Share Reorganization;

           (ii)  a consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with,
      or into another body corporate; or

           (iii)  the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets
      of the Company to another body corporate;

(any such event being herein called a "Capital Reorganization"), then in
 each such case the holder who exercises the right to convert Note after the
 effective date of such Capital Reorganization shall be entitled to receive
 and shall accept, upon the exercise of such right, in lieu of the number of
 shares of Common Stock to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon
 the exercise of the conversion privilege, the aggregate number of shares
 or other securities or property of the Company or of the body corporate
 resulting from such Capital Reorganization that such holder would have been
 entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the
 effective date thereof, such holders had been the holder of the number of
 shares of Common Stock to which such holder was theretofore entitled upon
 conversion; provided, however, that no such Capital Reorganization shall be
 consummated in effect unless all necessary steps shall have been taken so
 that such holders shall thereafter be entitled to receive such number of
 shares or other securities of the Company or of the body corporate resulting
 from such Capital Reorganization, subject to adjustment thereafter in
 accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those
 contained above.

 ARTICLE 11.4  Adjustment Rules . The following rules and procedures shall
 be applicable to adjustments made in this Article XI:

           (a)  no adjustment in the applicable Fixed Price shall be required
      unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the
      applicable Fixed Price then in effect, provided, however, that any
      adjustments which, but for the provisions of this clause would
      otherwise have been required to be made, shall be carried forward and
      taken into account in any subsequent adjustment;

           (b)  if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the
      adjustment provisions of this Article XI but not expressly provided
      for by such provisions, the Company will give notice of such event as
      provided herein, and the Company's board of directors will make an
      appropriate adjustment in the Fixed Price so that the rights of the
      holders of the applicable Security shall not be diminished by such
      event; and

          (c)  if a dispute shall at any time arise with respect to any
      adjustment of the applicable Fixed Price, such dispute shall be
      conclusively determined by the auditors of the Company or, if they
      are unable or unwilling to act, by a firm of independent chartered
      accountants selected by the Directors and any such determination shall
      be binding upon the Company and Purchaser.

 ARTICLE 11.5  Certificate as to Adjustment .  The Company shall from time
 to time promptly after the occurrence of any event which requires an
 adjustment in the applicable Fixed Price deliver to Purchaser a certificate
 specifying the nature of the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of
 the adjustment necessitated thereby, the applicable Fixed Price after giving
 effect to such adjustment and setting forth, in reasonable detail, the
 method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.

 ARTICLE 11.6  Notice to Holders .  If the Company shall fix a record date
 for:

           (a)  any Share Reorganization (other than the subdivision of
      outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares or the
      consolidation of outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of
      shares),

           (b)  any Capital Reorganization (other than a reclassification or
      redesignation of the Common Stock into other shares),

           (c)  Sale Event; or

           (d)  any cash dividend,

 the Company shall, not less than 10 days prior to such record date or, if
 no record date is fixed, prior to the effective date of such event, give to
 Purchaser notice of the particulars of the proposed event or the extent that
 such particulars have been determined at the time of giving the notice.

                        ARTICLE 12.  EVENTS OF DEFAULT

 ARTICLE 12.1  Events of Default.   If one or more of the following events
 (each an "Event of Default") shall have occurred and be continuing:

      regarding the Company and except if, at the time there is any
      suspension on any National Market, the Common Stock is then listed
      and approved for trading on another  National Market within ten (10)
      Trading Days thereof);

           (f)  following the 152nd day of this Agreement, the Company shall

      insolvency, moratorium or other similar law now or hereafter in
      effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator,
      custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of

      continue unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of 60 days; or

           (k)  any representation, warranty, certification or statement made
      by the Company in any Transaction Agreement or which is contained in
      any certificate, document or financial or other statement furnished at
      any time under or in connection with any Transaction Agreement shall

 with respect to any other Event of Default, by notice to the Company,
 declare the Note to be, and the Note shall thereon become immediately due
 and payable; provided that in the case of any of the Events of Default
 specified in paragraph (j) or (k) above with respect to the Company or any
 Subsidiary, then, without any notice to the Company or any other act by

 remedy given hereunder or now hereafter existing at law or in equity or
 otherwise.  The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
 otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any
 other appropriate right or remedy.  Every power and remedy given by the Note
 or by law may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be
 deemed expedient, by Purchaser.

                          ARTICLE 13.  MISCELLANEOUS

 telecopy is transmitted to the telecopy number specified on the signature
 page hereof, (ii) if given by mail, four days after such  communication
 is deposited in the mail with first class postage prepaid, addressed as

 ARTICLE 13.2  No Waivers; Amendments .

           (a)  No failure or delay on the part of any party 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 any other right, power or remedy.

           (b)  Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, supplemented
      or waived if, but only if, such amendment, supplement or waiver is in
      writing and is signed by the Company and the Majority Holders;
      provided, that without the consent of each holder of any Note affected
      thereby, an amendment or waiver may not (a) reduce the aggregate
      principal amount of Note whose holders must consent to an amendment or
      waiver, (b) reduce the rate or extend the time for payment of interest
      on any Note, (c) reduce the principal amount of or extend the stated
      maturity of any Note or (d) make any Note payable in money or property

      of the requisite principal amount of Note have concurred in any
      direction, consent, or waiver as provided in any Transaction Agreement,
      Note which are owned by the Company or any other obligor on or
      guarantor of the Note, or by any Person Controlling, Controlled by, or
      under common Control with any of the foregoing, shall be disregarded
      and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such
      determination; and provided further that no such amendment, supplement
      or waiver which affects the rights of Purchaser and their affiliates
      otherwise than solely in their capacities as holders of Note shall be
      effective with respect to them without their prior written consent.

 ARTICLE 13.3  Indemnification .

           (a)  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser,
      its Affiliates, and each Person, if any, who controls Purchaser, or
      any of its Affiliates, within the meaning of the Securities Act or
      the Exchange Act (each, a "Controlling Person"), and the respective
      partners, agents, employees, officers and Directors of Purchaser,
      their Affiliates and any such Controlling Person (each an "Indemnified
      Party") and collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"), from and against
      any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
      (including, without limitation and as incurred, reasonable costs of
      investigating, preparing or defending any such claim or action, whether
      or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto, provided that the
      Company shall not be obligated to advance such costs to any Indemnified
      Party other than Purchaser unless it has received from such Indemnified
      Party an undertaking to repay to the Company the costs so advanced if
      it should be determined by final judgment of a court of competent
      jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party was not entitled to
      indemnification hereunder with respect to such costs) which may be
      incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with any
      investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding brought or
      threatened that relates to or arises out of, or is in connection with
      any activities contemplated by any Transaction Agreement or any other
      services rendered in connection herewith; provided that the Company
      will not be responsible for any claims, liabilities, losses, damages or
      expenses that are determined by final judgment of a court of competent
      jurisdiction to result from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence,
      willful misconduct or bad faith.

           (b)  If any action shall be brought against an Indemnified Party
      with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company under
      this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the
      Company in writing and the Company, at its option, may, assume the
      defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably
      satisfactory to such Indemnified Party and payment of all reasonable
      fees and expenses.  The failure to so notify the Company shall not
      affect any obligations the Company may have to such Indemnified Party
      under this Agreement or otherwise unless the Company is materially
      adversely affected by such failure.  Such Indemnified Party shall have
      the right to employ separate counsel in such action and participate in
      the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be
      at the expense of such Indemnified Party, unless (i) the Company has
      failed to assume the defense and employ counsel or (ii) the named
      parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include
      such Indemnified Party and the Company, and such Indemnified Party
      shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal
      defenses available to it which are different from or additional to
      those available to the Company, in which case, if such Indemnified
      Party notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate
      counsel at the expense of the Company, the Company shall not have the
      right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of
      such Indemnified Party, provided, however, that the Company shall not,
      in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but
      substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same
      jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
      circumstances, be responsible hereunder for the reasonable fees and
      expenses of more than one such firm of separate counsel, in addition
      to any local counsel, which counsel shall be designated by Purchaser.
      The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action
      effected without the written consent of the Company (which shall not
      be unreasonably withheld) and the Company agrees to indemnify and hold
      harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability
      by reason of settlement of any action effected with the consent of the
      Company.  In addition, the Company will not, without the prior written
      consent of Purchaser, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of
      any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or
      threatened action, claim, suit or proceeding in respect to which
      indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or
      not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto) unless such settlement,
      compromise, consent or termination includes an express unconditional
      release of Purchaser and the other Indemnified Parties, satisfactory in
      form and substance to Purchaser, from all liability arising out of such
      action, claim, suit or proceeding.

           (c)  If for any reason the foregoing indemnity is unavailable
      (otherwise than pursuant to the express terms of such indemnity) to
      an Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party
      harmless, then in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, the
      Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
      Indemnified Party as a result of such claims, liabilities, losses,
      damages, or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to
      reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand
      and by Purchaser on the other from the transactions contemplated by
      this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not
      permitted under applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to
      reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the
      one hand and Purchaser on the other, but also the relative fault of
      the Company and Purchaser as well as any other relevant equitable
      considerations.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 13.3,
      the aggregate contribution of all Indemnified Parties shall not exceed
      the amount of interest and fees actually received by Purchaser pursuant
      to this Agreement.  It is hereby further agreed that the relative
      benefits to the Company on the one hand and Purchaser on the other with
      respect to the transactions contemplated hereby shall be determined by
      reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue
      statement of material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state
      a material fact related to information supplied by the Company or by
      Purchaser and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
      information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
      omission.  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.

           (d)  The indemnification, contribution and expense reimbursement
      obligations set forth in this Section 13.3 (i) shall be in addition to
      any liability the Company may have to any Indemnified Party at common
      law or otherwise; (ii) shall survive the termination of this Agreement
      and the other Transaction Agreements and the payment in full of the
      Note and (iii) shall remain operative and in full force and effect
      regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Purchaser or
      any other Indemnified Party.

 ARTICLE 13.4  Expenses:  Documentary Taxes . The Company agrees to pay to
 Global Capital Advisors, LLC, on the Closing Date, a fee of $12,000.00 (the
 "Out of Pocket Expense Fee") in full satisfaction of all obligations of the

 preparation of the Transaction Agreements, relevant due diligence, and other

 its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any other Person without
 the prior written consent of the Majority Holders.  All provisions hereunder
 purporting to give rights to Purchaser and its affiliates or to holders of
 Securities are for the express benefit of such Persons and their successors
 and assigns.

 investment banker who would be entitled to any brokerage, finder's or other
 fee or commission payable by the Company or Purchaser in connection with the
 sale of the Securities.

 ARTICLE 13.8  Delaware Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury
 Trial; Appointment of Agent .  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
 ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE.  EACH
 PARTY HERETO HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED

 IN DELAWARE FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
 TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.  EACH PARTY
 HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY
 OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF
 ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH
 PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT
 FORUM. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE
