                  10% SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

Date: October 9, 2003                                               $700,000.00

      FOR VALUE RECEIVED, iSECUREtrac, Corp. a corporation organized under the
laws of Delaware (the "Borrower"), hereby promises to pay to the order of Micro
Capital Fund LP, a Delaware limited partnership, or its registered assigns (the
"Holder"), the sum of seven hundred thousand dollars ($700,000.00) on October 9,
2008 (the "Scheduled Maturity Date"), and to pay interest on the unpaid
principal balance hereof at the rate of ten percent (10%), as provided in
Article I below.

      The term "Note" and all references thereto, as used throughout this
instrument, shall mean this instrument as originally executed, or if later
amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented, issued in respect
hereof pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, of even date
herewith, between Borrower and Holder thereto (the "Securities Purchase
Agreement"). The Note, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement, of even date herewith, between Borrower and Holder (the
"Registration Rights Agreement") are collectively referred to herein as the
"Transaction Documents." All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the
Securities Purchase Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE I
                        PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

      A. Payment of Interest. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal
balance hereof from the Issuance Date until the same is paid, whether at
maturity, or upon prepayment, repayment, conversion or otherwise. Interest shall
be calculated based on a 365-day year and shall be payable quarterly in arrears
on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each year (each, an
"Interest Payment Date"), commencing on December 31, 2003. Payment of each
installment of interest due hereunder shall be made in cash.

      B. Payment of Principal. The principal amount hereof, together with all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the Scheduled
Maturity Date. Payment of principal and accrued interest on the Scheduled
Maturity Date shall be made in cash.

      C. Prepayment. Except as and to the extent otherwise provided herein, no
amounts of principal or interest due hereunder may be prepaid by Borrower
without the prior written consent of Holder.

<PAGE>

      D. Manner of Payments. All cash payments of principal and interest shall
be made in, and all references herein to monetary denominations shall refer to,
lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such
address as Holder shall have given or shall hereafter give to Borrower by
written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. If any cash
payment to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a business day,
such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day and such
extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with
such payment. If any payment due hereunder is not made when due, Holder shall
thereafter be entitled to interest on the amount of such delinquent payment at a
per annum rate equal to the lower of eighteen percent (18%) and the highest
interest rate permitted by applicable law until such amount is paid in full.

                                   ARTICLE II
                                   CONVERSION

      E. Conversion at the Option of Holder. Subject to the limitations on
conversions contained in Article VIII, Holder may, following ninety (90) days
after Closing Date, at any time and from time to time, convert (an "Optional
Conversion") all or any portion of the unpaid principal amount hereof and any
accrued interest thereon into a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares
of Common Stock as is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the amount
of principal and interest being so converted by (y) the Conversion Price then in
effect.

      F. Mechanics of Conversion. In order to effect an Optional Conversion,
Holder shall: (x) fax (or otherwise deliver) a copy of the fully executed Notice
of Conversion to Borrower (Attention: Secretary) and (y) surrender or cause to
be surrendered this Note, duly endorsed, along with a copy of the Notice of
Conversion as soon as practicable thereafter to Borrower. Upon receipt by
Borrower of a facsimile copy of a Notice of Conversion from Holder, Borrower
shall promptly send, via facsimile, a confirmation to Holder stating that the
Notice of Conversion has been received, the date upon which Borrower expects to
deliver the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion and the name and
telephone number of a contact person at Borrower regarding the conversion.
Borrower shall not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon a
conversion unless this Note is delivered to Borrower as provided above, or
Holder notifies Borrower that this Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and
delivers the documentation to Borrower required by Article X.B hereof.

            (i) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon the surrender of
this Note accompanied by a Notice of Conversion, Borrower (itself, or through
its transfer agent) shall, no later than the later of (a) the second business
day following the Conversion Date and (b) the business day following the date of
such surrender (or, in the case of lost, stolen or destroyed certificates, after
provision of indemnity pursuant to Article X.B) (the "Delivery Period"), issue
and deliver (i.e., deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier
service postage prepaid) to Holder or its nominee (x) that number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of that portion of this Note being
converted and (y) a new Note representing the principal balance of this Note not
being converted, if any. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower's transfer
agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated
Securities Transfer program, and so long as the certificates therefor do not
bear a legend (pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement) and
Holder thereof is not then required to return such certificate for the placement
of a legend thereon (pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase
Agreement), Borrower shall cause its transfer agent to promptly electronically
transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to Holder by crediting the
account of Holder or its nominee with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent
Commission system ("DTC Transfer"). If the aforementioned conditions to a DTC
Transfer are not satisfied, Borrower shall deliver as provided above to Holder
physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion.
Further, Holder may instruct Borrower to deliver to Holder physical certificates
representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion in lieu of delivering
such shares by way of DTC Transfer.

<PAGE>

            (ii) Taxes. Borrower shall pay any and all taxes that may be imposed
upon it with respect to the issuance and delivery of the shares of Common Stock
upon the conversion of this Note.

            (iii) No Fractional Shares. If any conversion of this Note would
result in the issuance of a fractional share of Common Stock (aggregating the
entire amount of principal and interest being converted pursuant to a given
Notice of Conversion), such fractional share shall be payable in cash based upon
the Closing Sales Price of the Common Stock at such time, and the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be the next
lower whole number of shares.

            (iv) Conversion Disputes. In the case of any dispute with respect to
a conversion, Borrower shall promptly issue such number of shares of Common
Stock as are not disputed in accordance with subparagraph (i) above. If such
dispute involves the calculation of the Conversion Price, and such dispute is
not promptly resolved by discussion between Holder and Borrower, Borrower shall
submit the disputed calculations to an independent outside accountant (which
accountant shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Holder) via facsimile
within three business days of receipt of the Notice of Conversion. The
accountant shall promptly audit the calculations and notify Borrower and Holder
of the results no later than three business days from the date it receives the
disputed calculations. The accountant's calculation shall be deemed conclusive,
absent manifest error, and the party whose proposed calculation is further from
the calculation determined by the accountant shall bear all of the accountant's
expenses. Borrower shall then issue the appropriate number of shares of Common
Stock in accordance with subparagraph (i) above.

            (v) Payment of Accrued Amounts. Upon conversion of any unpaid
principal amount of this Note, all accrued interest on such amount through and
including the Conversion Date shall be paid on the Conversion Date in accordance
with one of the permitted payment methods set forth in Article I.A above.

      G. Mandatory Conversion into Common Stock. Subject to the limitations on
conversion contained in Article VIII, if at any time following the second
anniversary of the Issuance Date all of the Required Conditions are satisfied,
then, at the option of Borrower exercisable by the delivery of written notice to
Holder, delivered at least ten (10) days prior to the Conversion Date stated in
such notice, convert all, but not less than all, of the Notes originally issued
by Borrower and any of its related entities into a number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Common Stock determined in accordance with the formula
set forth in Paragraph A of this Article II (a "Mandatory Conversion").
Thereafter, Borrower and Holder shall follow the applicable conversion
procedures set forth in Article II.B; provided, however, Holder shall not be
required to deliver a Notice of Conversion to Borrower in order for Borrower to
effect a Mandatory Conversion. In the event that Borrower is prohibited from
issuing shares of Common Stock upon a Mandatory Conversion pursuant to this
Article II.C as a result of the operation of the limitations set forth in
Article VIII, Borrower shall pay to each Holder an amount of cash equal to the
Closing Sales Price of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date multiplied by the
number of shares of Common Stock that Borrower is prohibited from issuing to
such Holder as a result of the operation of the limitations set forth in Article
VIII.

<PAGE>

                                  ARTICLE III
                      RESERVATION OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

      H. Reserved Amount. On or prior to the Issuance Date, Borrower shall
reserve a minimum of 2,000,000 shares of its authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Notes pursuant to Article II,
and, thereafter, the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock so
reserved (the "Reserved Amount") shall at all times be sufficient to provide for
the full conversion of the Notes at the then current Conversion Price thereof
(without giving effect to the limitations contained in Article VIII).

      I. Increases to Reserved Amount. If the Reserved Amount for any three
consecutive trading days (the last of such three trading days being the
"Authorization Trigger Date") shall be less than one hundred percent (100%) of
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon full conversion of all then
outstanding Notes (without giving effect to the limitations contained in Article
VIII), Borrower shall immediately notify Holder of such occurrence and shall
take immediate action (including, if necessary, seeking stockholder approval to
authorize the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock) to increase the
Reserved Amount to one hundred percent (100%) of the number of shares of Common
Stock then issuable upon full conversion of the Notes at the then current
Conversion Price (without giving effect to the limitations contained in Article
VIII). In the event Borrower fails to so increase the Reserved Amount within 90
days after an Authorization Trigger Date, Holder shall thereafter have the
option, exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, by
delivery of a Default Notice to Borrower, to require Borrower to prepay in cash,
for an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article V.B), that
portion of the unpaid principal amount hereof and accrued interest thereon such
that, after giving effect to such prepayment, the then unissued portion of
Holder's Reserved Amount is at least equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the
total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note by
Holder. If Borrower fails to prepay any portion of this Note as required hereby
within five business days after its receipt of such Default Notice, then Holder
shall be entitled to the remedies provided in Article V.C.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                         FAILURE TO SATISFY CONVERSIONS

      J. Conversion Defaults. If, at any time, (i) Holder submits a Notice of
Conversion and Borrower fails for any reason to deliver, on or prior to the
fifth business day following the expiration of the Delivery Period for such
conversion, such number of freely tradable shares of Common Stock to which
Holder is entitled upon such conversion, or (ii) Borrower provides written
notice to Holder (or makes a public announcement via press release) at any time
of its intention not to issue freely tradable shares of Common Stock upon
exercise by Holder of their conversion rights in accordance with the terms of
the Note (each of (i) and (ii) being a "Conversion Default"), then Holder may
elect, at any time and from time to time prior to the Default Cure Date for such
Conversion Default, by delivery of a Default Notice to Borrower, to have all or
any portion of the unpaid principal amount hereof and accrued interest thereto
prepaid by Borrower in cash, for an amount per share equal to the Default Amount
(as defined in Article V.B). If Borrower fails to prepay any portion of this
Note as required hereby within five business days after its receipt of such
Default Notice, then Holder shall be entitled to the remedies provided in
Article V.C.

<PAGE>

      K. Buy-In Cure. Unless Borrower has notified Holder in writing prior to
the delivery by Holder of a Notice of Conversion that Borrower is unable to
honor conversions, if (i) (a) Borrower fails to promptly deliver during the
Delivery Period shares of Common Stock to Holder upon a conversion of all or any
portion of this Note or (b) there shall occur a Legend Removal Failure (as
defined in Article V.A(iv) below) and (ii) thereafter, Holder purchases (in an
open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to make delivery in
satisfaction of a sale by Holder of the unlegended shares of Common Stock (the
"Sold Shares") which Holder anticipated receiving upon such conversion (a
"Buy-In"), Borrower shall pay Holder, in addition to any other remedies
available to Holder, the amount by which (x) Holder's total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the unlegended shares of Common
Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the net proceeds received by Holder from the sale
of the Sold Shares. For example, if Holder purchases unlegended shares of Common
Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to
shares of Common Stock it sold for $10,000, Borrower will be required to pay
Holder $1,000. Holder shall provide Borrower written notification and supporting
documentation indicating any amounts payable to Holder pursuant to this Article
IV.B.

                                   ARTICLE V
                                EVENTS OF DEFAULT

      L. Events of Default. In the event (each of the events described in
clauses (ii)-(ix) below after expiration of the applicable cure period (if any)
being an "Event of Default"):

            (i) Borrower fails to pay in full an interest payment within fifteen
(15) days after a scheduled Interest Payment Date (each a "Conversion Price
Event of Default").

            (ii) Borrower fails to pay in full an interest payment within twenty
(20) days after a scheduled Interest Payment Date, or fails to pay in full the
principal hereof, and/or the accrued and unpaid interest thereon, when due,
whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise;

            (iii) the Common Stock (including any of the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of this Note) is suspended from trading on any of, or
is not listed (and authorized) for trading on at least one of, the New York
Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market, the
Nasdaq SmallCap Market or the OTC Bulletin Board for an aggregate of ten or more
trading days in any twelve month period;

            (iv) the registration statement required to be filed by Borrower
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement has not been declared effective by
the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) or
such registration statement, after being declared effective, cannot be utilized
by Holders for the resale of all of their Registrable Securities (as defined in
the Registration Rights Agreement) for an aggregate of more than 60 days;

            (v) Borrower fails to remove any restrictive legend on any
certificate or any shares of Common Stock issued to Holder upon conversion of
this Note as and when required by the terms hereof and of the Securities
Purchase Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement (a "Legend Removal
Failure"), and any such failure continues uncured for ten business days after
Borrower has been notified thereof in writing by Holder;

<PAGE>

            (vi) Borrower provides written notice (or otherwise indicates) to
Holder, or states by way of public announcement distributed via a press release,
at any time, of its intention not to issue, or otherwise refuses to issue,
shares of Common Stock to Holder upon conversion in accordance with the terms of
this Note (other than because such issuance would exceed Holder's allocated
portion of the Reserved Amount, for which failures Holder shall have the
remedies set forth in Article III);

            (vii) Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower shall make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the
appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its
property or business, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be
appointed;

            (viii) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation
proceedings or other proceedings for the relief of debtors shall be instituted
by or against Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower and if instituted against
Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower by a third party, shall not be dismissed
within 60 days of their initiation;

            (ix) Borrower shall:

                  (a) sell, convey or dispose of all or substantially all of its
assets (the presentation of any such transaction for stockholder approval being
conclusive evidence that such transaction involves the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of Borrower), unless Holder has approved such
transaction pursuant to Article VII.B below;

                  (b) merge or consolidate with or into any person or entity,
which results in either (i) Holder of the voting securities of Borrower
immediately prior to such transaction holding or having the right to direct the
voting of fifty percent (50%) or less of the total outstanding voting securities
of Borrower or such other surviving or acquiring person or entity immediately
following such transaction or (ii) the members of the board of directors or
other governing body of Borrower comprising fifty percent (50%) or less of the
members of the board of directors or other governing body of Borrower or such
other surviving or acquiring person or entity immediately following such
transaction, unless Holder has approved such transaction pursuant to Article
VII.B below;

                  (c) either (i) fail to pay, when due, or within any applicable
grace period, any payment with respect to any indebtedness of Borrower in excess
of $250,000 due to any third party, other than payments contested by Borrower in
good faith, or otherwise be in breach or violation of any agreement for monies
owed or owing in an amount in excess of $250,000 which breach or violation
permits the other party thereto to declare a default or otherwise accelerate
amounts due thereunder, or (ii) suffer to exist any other default or event of
default under any agreement binding Borrower which default or event of default
would or is likely to have a material adverse effect on the business,
operations, properties, prospects or financial condition of Borrower;

                  (d) have thirty-five percent (35%) or more of the voting power
of its capital stock owned beneficially by one person, entity or "group" (as
such term is used under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended); or

<PAGE>

                  (x) except with respect to matters covered by subparagraph
(ii) - (ix) above, as to which such applicable subparagraphs shall apply,
Borrower otherwise shall breach any material term hereunder or under the other
Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, the representations and
warranties contained therein (i.e., in the event of a material breach as of the
date such representation and warranty was made) and if such breach is curable,
shall fail to cure such breach within ten business days after Borrower has been
notified thereof in writing by Holder;

then, upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, at the option of Holder,
exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time by delivery of
a written notice to such effect (a "Default Notice") to Borrower while such
Event of Default continues, Borrower shall prepay, in satisfaction of its
obligation to pay the outstanding principal amount of this Note and accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in
Section V.B below); provided, however, that (a) in the case of an Event of
Default described in clauses (vii) and (viii) of this Article V.A, Borrower's
prepayment obligation hereunder shall be automatic and shall not require the
delivery of a Default Notice by Holder, (b) in the case of an Event of Default
resulting from a Legend Removal Failure, Borrower's prepayment obligation
hereunder shall only apply to that portion of the Note affected by such Legend
Removal Failure, and (c) in the case of a Conversion Price Event of Default, the
Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced by 10% of the original
Conversion Price specified herein. Except in the case of a Conversion Price
Event of Default, such Default Amount, together with all other ancillary amounts
payable hereunder, shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand,
presentment or notice, all of which are hereby expressly waived, together with
all costs, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses of collection,
and Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available
at law or in equity. For the avoidance of doubt, the occurrence of any event
described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vii), (viii) and (ix) above shall
immediately constitute an Event of Default and there shall be no cure period.
Further, the occurrence of any event described in clause (i) above shall
immediately constitute a Conversion Price Event of Default and there shall be no
cure period; provided, however, that in the case that Borrower pays in full an
interest payment between fifteen (15) days and twenty (20) days after a
scheduled Interest Payment Date, Borrower shall be subject to the penalty for a
Conversion Price Event of Default only and not also subject to the additional
Default Amount provided in clause (ii) above for such payments greater than
twenty (20) days late. Upon Borrower's receipt of any Default Notice hereunder,
Borrower shall immediately (and in any event within one business day following
such receipt) deliver a written notice (a "Default Announcement") to Holder
stating the date upon which Borrower received such Default Notice and the amount
of the Note covered thereby. Following the delivery of a Default Announcement
hereunder, at any time and from time to time, Holder may request (either orally
or in writing) information from Borrower with respect to the instant default and
Borrower shall furnish (either orally or in writing) as soon as practicable such
requested information to Holder.

      M. Definition of Default Amount. The "Default Amount" with respect to this
Note means an amount equal to the greater of:

                  (i)      V   x   M
                         -----
                          C P

         and      (ii)     V   x   R

<PAGE>

                  where:

                  "V" means the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the
Note required to be prepaid plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through
the date of payment of the Default Amount hereunder;

                  "CP" means the Conversion Price in effect on the date on which
Borrower receives the Default Notice;

                  "M" means (i) with respect to all Events of Default other than
Events of Default described in subparagraph (a) or (b) of Article V.A(ix)
hereof, the highest Closing Sales Price of Borrower's Common Stock during the
period beginning on the date on which Borrower receives the Default Notice and
ending on the date immediately preceding the date of payment of the Default
Amount hereunder, and (ii) with respect to an Event of Default described in
subparagraph (a) or (b) of Article V.A(ix) hereof, the greater of (a) the amount
determined pursuant to clause (i) of this definition or (b) the fair market
value, as of the date on which Borrower receives the Default Notice, of the
consideration payable to Holder of a share of Common Stock pursuant to the
transaction which triggers the Event of Default. For purposes of this
definition, "fair market value" shall be determined by the mutual agreement of
Borrower and the Holder, or if such agreement cannot be reached within five
business days prior to the date of the Event of Default, by an investment
banking firm selected by Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Holder, with
the costs of such appraisal to be borne by Borrower; and

                  "R" means 115%.

      N. Failure to Pay Default Amounts. If Borrower fails to pay Holder the
Default Amount with respect to the Note within five business days after its
receipt of a Default Notice (the "Prepayment Date"), then Holder shall be
entitled to interest on the Default Amount at a per annum rate equal to the
lower of eighteen percent (18%) and the highest interest rate permitted by
applicable law from the date on which Borrower receives the Default Notice until
the date of payment of the Default Amount hereunder. In the event Borrower is
unable to prepay all of the outstanding Notes required to be prepaid hereunder,
Borrower shall prepay the outstanding Notes from each Holder pro rata, based on
the total amounts due on the Not5es at the time of prepayment and required on
Prepayment Date relative to the total amounts due under the Notes on the
Prepayment Date.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                       ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONVERSION PRICE

      The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
follows:

      O. Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, Etc. If, at any time on or after the
Issuance Date, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by
a stock split, stock dividend, combination, reclassification or other similar
event, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced, or if the number
of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a reverse stock split,
combination, reclassification or other similar event, the Conversion Price shall
be proportionately increased. In such event, Borrower shall notify Borrower's
transfer agent of such change on or before the effective date thereof.

<PAGE>

      P. Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time after the Issuance Date,
there shall be (i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par
value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or
combination), (ii) any consolidation or merger of Borrower with any other entity
(other than a merger in which Borrower is the surviving or continuing entity and
its capital stock is unchanged), (iii) any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of Borrower or (iv) any share exchange or other
transaction pursuant to which all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock are
converted into other securities or property (each of (i) - (iv) above being a
"Corporate Change"), then Holder shall thereafter have the right to receive upon
conversion, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable, such
shares of stock, securities and/or other property as would have been issued or
payable in such Corporate Change with respect to or in exchange for the number
of shares of Common Stock which would have been issuable upon conversion had
such Corporate Change not taken place (without giving effect to the limitations
contained in Article VIII), and in any such case, appropriate provisions (in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder) shall be made with
respect to the rights and interests of Holder hereunder to the end that the
economic value of this Note is in no way diminished by such Corporate Change and
that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, in the case of any
such consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor entity or purchasing
entity is not Borrower, an immediate adjustment of the Conversion Price so that
the Conversion Price immediately after the Corporate Change reflects the same
relative value as compared to the value of the surviving entity's common stock
that existed between the Conversion Price and the value of Borrower's Common
Stock immediately prior to such Corporate Change) shall thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock
or securities thereafter deliverable upon the conversion thereof. Borrower shall
not effect any Corporate Change unless (i) each Holder has received written
notice of such transaction at least 45 days prior thereto, but in no event later
than 15 days prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders
entitled to vote with respect thereto, and (ii) the resulting successor or
acquiring entity (if not Borrower) assumes by written instrument (in form and
substance reasonable satisfactory to Holder) the obligations under this Note
(including, without limitation, the obligation to make interest payments accrued
but unpaid through the date of such consolidation, merger or sale and accruing
thereafter). The above provisions shall apply regardless of whether or not there
would have been a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and
available for issuance upon conversion of this Note as of the date of such
transaction, and shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.

      Q. Distributions. If, at any time after the Issuance Date, Borrower shall
declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets)
to the holders of Common Stock as a partial liquidating dividend, by way of
return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to
Borrower's stockholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of
capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a "Distribution"), then
Holder shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of
record for determining the stockholders entitled to such Distribution (or if no
such record is taken, the date on which such Distribution is declared or made),
to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to Holder
with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion
(without giving effect to the limitations contained in Article VIII) had Holder
been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to such Distribution (or if no such
record is taken, the date on which such Distribution is declared or made).

      R. Convertible Securities and Purchase Rights. If, at any time after the
Issuance Date, Borrower issues any securities or other instruments which are
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock ("Convertible
Securities") or options, warrants or other rights to purchase or subscribe for
Common Stock or Convertible Securities ("Purchase Rights") pro rata to the
record holders of the Common Stock, whether or not such Convertible Securities
or Purchase Rights are immediately convertible, exercisable or exchangeable,
then Holder shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date
of record for determining stockholder entitled to receive such Convertible
Securities or Purchase Rights (or if no such record is taken, the date on which
such Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights are issued), to receive the
aggregate number of Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights which Holder would
have received with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion (without giving effect to the limitations contained in Article VIII)
had Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for
the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such Convertible
Securities or Purchase Rights (or if no such record is taken, the date on which
such Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights were issued). If the right to
exercise or convert any such Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights would
expire in accordance with their terms prior to the conversion of this Note, then
the terms of such Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights shall provide that
such exercise or convertibility right shall remain in effect until thirty (30)
days after the date Holder receives such Convertible Securities or Purchase
Rights pursuant to the conversion hereof.

      S. Dilutive Issuances.

                  (i) Adjustment Upon Dilutive Issuance. If, at any time after
the Issuance Date, Borrower issues or sells, or in accordance with subparagraph
(ii) of this Article VI.E is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common
Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per share less than the
Conversion Price on the date of issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) (a
"Dilutive Issuance"), then effective immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the
Conversion Price shall be adjusted so as to equal an amount determined by
multiplying such Conversion Price by the following fraction:

                                     N + N
                                      0   1
                                    ---------
                                     N + N
                                      0   2

                  where:

                  N0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the issuance, sale or deemed issuance or sale of such
additional shares of Common Stock in such Dilutive Issuance (without taking into
account any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or
exercise of any Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights, including the Note);

                  N1 = the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate
consideration, if any, received or receivable by Borrower for the total number
of such additional shares of Common Stock so issued, sold or deemed issued or
sold in such Dilutive Issuance (which, in the case of a deemed issuance or sale,
shall be calculated in accordance with subparagraph (ii) below) would purchase
at the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance;
and

                  N2 = the number of such additional shares of Common Stock so
issued, sold or deemed issued or sold in such Dilutive Issuance.

<PAGE>

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this
Paragraph E if such adjustment would result in an increase in the Conversion
Price.

            (ii) Effect on Conversion Price of Certain Events. For purposes of
determining the adjusted Conversion Price under subparagraph (i) of this Article
VI.E, the following will be applicable:

                  (a) Issuance of Purchase Rights. If Borrower issues or sells
any Purchase Rights, whether or not immediately exercisable, and the price per
share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Purchase
Rights (and the price of any conversion of Convertible Securities, if
applicable) is less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of issuance
or sale of such Purchase Rights, then the maximum total number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Purchase Rights (assuming
full conversion, exercise or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable)
shall, as of the date of the issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, be deemed
to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by Borrower for such price
per share. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for
which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Purchase Rights" shall
be determined by dividing (A) the total amount, if any, received or receivable
by Borrower as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Purchase
Rights, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any,
payable to Borrower upon the exercise of all such Purchase Rights, plus, in the
case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Purchase
Rights, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable upon
the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof (determined in accordance with the
calculation method set forth in subparagraph (ii)(b) of this Article VI.E) at
the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible, exercisable or
exchangeable, by (B) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of all such Purchase Rights (assuming full conversion,
exercise or exchange of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further
adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of
such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Purchase Rights or upon the
conversion, exercise or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon
exercise of such Purchase Rights.

                  (b) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If Borrower issues or
sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible,
exercisable or exchangeable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is
issuable upon such conversion, exercise or exchange is less than the Conversion
Price in effect on the date of issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities,
then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion, exercise or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall, as of
the date of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by Borrower for such price per
share. If the Convertible Securities so issued or sold do not have a fluctuating
conversion or exercise price or exchange ratio, then for the purposes of the
preceding sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon
such conversion, exercise or exchange" shall be determined by dividing (A) the
total amount, if any, received or receivable by Borrower as consideration for
the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to Borrower upon
the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof (determined in accordance with the
calculation method set forth in this subparagraph (ii)(b) of this Article VI.E)
at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible, exercisable or
exchangeable, by (B) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. If
the Convertible Securities so issued or sold have a fluctuating conversion or
exercise price or exchange ratio (a "Variable Rate Convertible Security"), then
for purposes of the next preceding sentence, the "price per share for which
Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion, exercise or exchange" shall be
deemed to be the lowest price per share which would be applicable (assuming all
holding period and other conditions to any discounts contained in such Variable
Rate Convertible Security have been satisfied) if the conversion price of such
Variable Rate Convertible Security on the date of issuance or sale thereof was
seventy-five percent (75%) of the actual conversion price on such date (the
"Assumed Variable Market Price"), and, further, if the conversion price of such
Variable Rate Convertible Security at any time or times thereafter is less than
or equal to the Assumed Variable Market Price last used for making any
adjustment under this Article VI.E with respect to any Variable Rate Convertible
Security, the Conversion Price in effect at such time shall be readjusted to
equal the Conversion Price which would have resulted if the Assumed Variable
Market Price at the time of issuance of the Variable Rate Convertible Security
had been seventy-five percent (75%) of the actual conversion price of such
Variable Rate Convertible Security existing at the time of the adjustment
required by this sentence. No further adjustment to the Conversion Price shall
be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion, exercise
or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

<PAGE>

                  (c) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If there is a
change at any time in (A) the amount of additional consideration payable to
Borrower upon the exercise of any Purchase Rights; (B) the amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to Borrower upon the conversion, exercise or
exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (C) the rate at which any Convertible
Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock
(in each such case, other than under or by reason of provisions designed to
protect against dilution), the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such
change shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in
effect at such time had such Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities still
outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration or changed
conversion, exercise or exchange rate, as the case may be, at the time initially
issued or sold.

                  (d) Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Common
Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for cash,
the consideration received therefor will be the amount received by Borrower
therefor. In case any Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities
are issued or sold for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than
cash, including in the case of a strategic or similar arrangement in which the
other entity will provide services to Borrower, purchase services from Borrower
or otherwise provide intangible consideration to Borrower, the amount of the
consideration other than cash received by Borrower (including the net present
value of the consideration expected by Borrower for the provided or purchased
services) shall be the fair market value of such consideration, except where
such consideration consists of securities, in which case the amount of
consideration received by Borrower will be the Closing Sales Price thereof as of
the date of receipt. In case any Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible
Securities are issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which
Borrower is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor will
be deemed to be the fair market value of such portion of the net assets and
business, including a reasonable value ascribed to "good will" as approved by a
majority of the outside Directors of the Company of the non-surviving Borrower
as is attributable to such Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible
Securities, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the
contrary, if Common Stock, Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities are issued
or sold in conjunction with each other as part of a single transaction or in a
series of related transactions, Holder may elect to determine the amount of
consideration deemed to be received by Borrower therefor by deducting the fair
value of any type of securities (the "Disregarded Securities") issued or sold in
such transaction or series of transactions. If Holder makes an election pursuant
to the immediately preceding sentence, no adjustment to the Conversion Price
shall be made pursuant to this Article VI.E for the issuance of the Disregarded
Securities or upon any conversion, exercise or exchange thereof. For example, if
Borrower were to issue convertible notes having a face value of $1,000,000 and
warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the
market price of the Common Stock on the date of issuance of such warrants in
exchange for $1,000,000 of consideration, the fair value of the warrants would
be subtracted from the $1,000,000 of consideration received by Borrower for the
purposes of determining whether the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the convertible notes shall be deemed to be issued at a price per
share below the Conversion Price then in effect and, if so, for purposes of
determining any adjustment to the Conversion Price hereunder as a result of the
issuance of the convertible notes. Borrower shall calculate, using standard
commercial valuation methods appropriate for valuing such assets, the fair
market value of any consideration other than cash or securities; provided,
however, that if Holder does not agree to such fair market value calculation
within three business days after receipt thereof from Borrower, then such fair
market value shall be determined in good faith by an investment banker or other
appropriate expert of national reputation selected by Borrower and reasonably
acceptable to Holder, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by Borrower.

<PAGE>

            (iii) Limitation on Adjustments for Dilutive Issuances.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Note to the
contrary, in no event shall the Conversion Price be adjusted as a result of a
Dilutive Issuance to the extent (but only to the extent) that such adjustment
would result in this Note, (together with any portions of the Note that have
already been converted into Common Stock) being convertible into and exercisable
for more than an aggregate of 9.9% of the then-outstanding shares of Common
Stock.

      T. Exceptions to Adjustment of Conversion Price. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made upon (i) the
issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise or conversion of any Convertible
Securities or Purchase Rights outstanding on the Issuance Date and disclosed in
the Disclosure Schedule to the Securities Purchase Agreement in accordance with
the terms of such Convertible Securities and Purchase Rights as of such date;
(ii) the grant of options to purchase Common Stock, with exercise prices not
less than the market price of the Common Stock on the date of grant, or the
grant of restricted shares of Common Stock, in each case which are issued to
employees, officers, directors or consultants of Borrower for the primary
purpose of soliciting or retaining their employment or service pursuant to an
equity compensation plan approved by Borrower's Board of Directors, and the
issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise thereof; (iii) the issuance
of securities pursuant to a bona fide underwritten public offering; or (iv) the
issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes; or (v) the
issuance of securities in a bona fide business acquisition.

      U. Other Action Affecting Conversion Price. If, at any time after the
Issuance Date, Borrower takes any action affecting the Common Stock that would
be covered by Article VI.A through E, but for the manner in which such action is
taken or structured, which would in any way diminish the value of the Note, then
the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in such manner as the Board of Directors
of Borrower shall in good faith determine to be equitable under the
circumstances.

      V. Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or
readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Article VI amounting to a
more than one percent (1%) change in such Conversion Price, or any change in the
number or type of stock, securities and/or other property issuable upon
conversion of the Note, Borrower, at its expense, shall promptly compute such
adjustment or readjustment or change and prepare and furnish to Holder a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment or change and showing
in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment or change is
based. Borrower shall, upon the written request at any time of Holder, furnish
to Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment
or change, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number
of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or
property which at the time would be received upon conversion of the Note.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                    CONSENT RIGHTS; NOTICE of certain actions

      W. Consent Rights. So long as the Note is outstanding, Borrower shall not
take any of the following corporate actions (whether by merger, consolidation or
otherwise) without first obtaining the approval (by vote or written consent) of
Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld:

            (i) alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the
Note;

            (ii) issue any additional notes, other than bank notes, operating
leases and similar instruments issued in the ordinary course of business;

            (iii) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire, or declare or pay any
cash dividend or distribution on, any securities of Borrower, except pursuant to
any equity compensation plan approved by Borrower's Board of Directors;

            (iv) issue any debt securities or incur any indebtedness that would
have priority over the Note upon liquidation of Borrower, or redeem, repurchase,
prepay or otherwise acquire any outstanding debt securities or indebtedness of
Borrower, except as expressly required by the terms of such securities or
indebtedness, and except for operating leases and bank notes executed in the
ordinary course of business;

            (v) enter into any agreement, commitment, understanding or other
arrangement to take any of the foregoing actions; or

            (vi) cause or authorize any subsidiary of Borrower to engage in any
of the foregoing actions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no change pursuant to this Article VII shall be
effective e to the extent that, by its terms, it applies to less than all of the
Holders of the Notes then outstanding.

      X. Approval of Certain Transactions. In the event that Borrower desires to
enter into any transaction that would result in (i) the sale, conveyance or
disposition of all or substantially all of its assets (the presentation of any
such transaction for stockholder approval being conclusive evidence that such
transaction involves the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
Borrower), or (ii) the merger or consolidation of Borrower with or into any
person or entity, which results in either (a) holders of the voting securities
of Borrower immediately prior to such transaction holding or having the right to
direct the voting of fifty percent (50%) or less of the total outstanding voting
securities of Borrower or such other surviving or acquiring person or entity
immediately following such transaction or (b) the members of the board of
directors or other governing body of Borrower comprising fifty percent (50%) or
less of the members of the board of directors or other governing body of
Borrower or such other surviving or acquiring person or entity immediately
following such transaction, then Borrower shall be permitted to seek the
approval of Holder for such transaction in advance of its entering into such
transaction, and if Holder so approves the transaction and Borrower enters into
and consummates such transaction within ninety (90) days following such approval
on terms no less favorable to Borrower than those presented to Holder for
purposes of obtaining such approval, then such transaction shall not constitute
an Event of Default under Section V.A(ix).

<PAGE>

      Y. Notice Rights. In addition to the foregoing consent rights, Borrower
shall provide Holder with prior notification of any meeting of the stockholders
(and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to stockholders). If
Borrower takes a record of its stockholders for the purpose of determining
stockholders entitled to (i) receive payment of any dividend or other
distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire
(including by way of merger, consolidation or recapitalization) any share of any
class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or
(ii) to vote in connection with any proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or
substantially all of the assets of Borrower, or any proposed merger,
consolidation, liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Borrower, Borrower
shall mail a notice to Holder, at least 15 days prior to the record date
specified therein (or 45 days prior to the consummation of the transaction or
event, whichever is earlier, but in no event earlier than public announcement of
such proposed transaction), of the date on which any such record is to be taken
for the purpose of such vote, dividend, distribution, right or other event, and
a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such vote, dividend,
distribution, right or other event to the extent known at such time.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
          LIMITATIONS ON CERTAIN CONVERSIONS, REDEMPTIONS AND TRANSFERS

In no event shall Borrower issue Common Stock to Holder in connection with the
repayment of this Note pursuant to Article I.B or Mandatory Conversion of this
Note pursuant to Article II.C, and in no event shall Holder have the right to
effect an Optional Conversion of this Note into shares of Common Stock or to
dispose of this Note to the extent that such repayment, conversion or right to
effect such conversion or disposition would result in Holder and its affiliates
together beneficially owning more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock. For purposes of this Article VIII, beneficial ownership shall be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and Regulation 13D-G thereunder. The restriction contained in
this Article VIII may not be altered, amended, deleted or changed in any manner
whatsoever unless Holder of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
and Holder shall approve, in writing, such alteration, amendment, deletion or
change. In the event that Borrower is prohibited from issuing shares of Common
Stock in connection with the repayment of this Note pursuant to Article I.B as a
result of the operation of this Article VIII, Borrower shall make such repayment
in cash. In the event that Borrower is prohibited from issuing shares of Common
Stock upon a Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Article II.C as a result of the
operation of this Article VIII, Borrower shall pay to Holder an amount of cash
equal to the Closing Sales Price of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock that Borrower is prohibited
from issuing as a result of the operation of this Article VIII.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                  SUBORDINATION

      Borrower's obligation for payment of this Note is subordinated to all
indebtedness as set forth on the Indebtedness Schedule attached hereto as
Exhibit "B" as of the execution of this Note.

                                   ARTICLE X
                               CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

closing bid prices of such security) (in any case, "Bloomberg"), or if the
foregoing does not apply, the last reported sales price of such security on a
national exchange or in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin
board for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no such price is
reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices of all
market makers for such security as reported in the "pink sheets" by the National
Quotation Bureau, Inc., in each case for such date or, if such date was not a
trading day for such security, on the next preceding date which was a trading
day. If the Closing Sales Price cannot be calculated for such security as of
either of such dates on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Sales Price of
such security on such date shall be the fair market value as reasonably
determined by an investment banking firm selected by Borrower and reasonably
acceptable to the Holder, with the costs of such appraisal to be borne by
Borrower.

      BB. "Common Stock" means the common stock of Borrower, no par value per
share.

      CC. "Conversion Date" means, as applicable, (i) for any Optional

a copy of the Notice of Conversion is faxed (or delivered by other means
resulting in notice) to Borrower before 11:59 p.m., Omaha time, on the
Conversion Date indicated in the Notice of Conversion; provided, however, that
if the Notice of Conversion is not so faxed or otherwise delivered before such
time, then the Conversion Date shall be the date Holder faxes or otherwise
delivers the Notice of Conversion to Borrower; and (ii) for any Mandatory
Conversion (as defined in Article II.C), that date specified in the notice
delivered to Holder in the event that such Mandatory Conversion occurs.

      DD. "Conversion Price" means fifty cents ($0.50), and shall be subject to
adjustment as provided herein.

      EE. "Default Cure Date" means, as applicable, (i) with respect to a
Conversion Default described in clause (i) of Article IV.A, the date Borrower
effects the conversion of the full amount of this Note being converted, (ii)
with respect to a Conversion Default described in clause (ii) of Article IV.A,

                                   ARTICLE XI
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      II. Failure or Indulgency Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of
any Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any

any other right, power or privilege.

      JJ. Lost or Stolen Notes. Upon receipt by Borrower of (i) evidence of the

loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity (without any bond or other security)
reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, or (z) in the case of mutilation, the Notes
(surrendered for cancellation), Borrower shall execute and deliver a new Note of
like tenor and date. However, Borrower shall not be obligated to reissue such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if Holder contemporaneously requests
Borrower to convert such Note.

      KK. Allocation of Reserved Amount. The initial Reserved Amount shall be
allocated pro rata among Holders of the Notes based on the principal amount of
Notes issued to each Holder. Each increase to the Reserved Amount shall be
allocated pro rata among Holders of the Notes based on the principal amount of
Notes held by each Holder at the time of the increase in the Reserved Amount. In
the event a Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder's Notes,
each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such transferor's
Reserved Amount. Any portion of the Reserved Amount that remains allocated to
any person or entity that does not hold any Notes shall be allocated to the
remaining Holder of the Notes, pro rata based on the principal balance of Notes
then held by such Holder.

<PAGE>

      LL. Quarterly Statements of Available Shares. For each calendar quarter
beginning in the quarter in which the initial registration statement required to
be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective and
thereafter for so long as any Notes are outstanding, Borrower shall deliver (or
cause its transfer agent to deliver) to Holder a written report notifying Holder
of any occurrence that prohibits Borrower from issuing Common Stock upon any
conversion. The report shall also specify (i) the total principal amount of
Notes outstanding as of the end of such quarter, (ii) the total number of shares
of Common Stock issued upon all conversions of Notes prior to the end of such
quarter, (iii) the total number of shares of Common Stock which are reserved for
issuance upon conversion of the Notes as of the end of such quarter and (iv) the
total number of shares of Common Stock which may thereafter be issued by
Borrower upon conversion of the Notes before Borrower would exceed the Reserved
Amount. Borrower (or its transfer agent) shall use its best efforts to deliver
the report for each quarter to Holder prior to the tenth day of the calendar
month following the quarter to which such report relates. In addition, Borrower
(or its transfer agent) shall provide, as promptly as practicable following
delivery to Borrower of a written request by Holder, any of the information
enumerated in clauses (i) - (iv) of this Paragraph D as of the date of such
request.

      MM. Status as Stockholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by
Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than the shares, if any, which
cannot be issued because their issuance would exceed Holder's allocated portion
of the Reserved Amount) shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock
and (ii) Holder's rights as a holder of such converted Note shall cease and
terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of
Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law
or in equity to Holder because of a failure by Borrower to comply with the terms
of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Holder has not received
certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the sixth business day
after the expiration of the Delivery Period with respect to a conversion of this
Note for any reason, then (unless Holder otherwise elects to retain its status
as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying Borrower within five business days
after the expiration of such six business day period after expiration of the
Delivery Period) Holder shall regain the rights of a holder of this Note and
Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note to Holder.
In all cases, Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies for Borrower's
failure to convert this Note.

      NN. Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Note shall be
cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note, at
law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other
injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit Holder's right to pursue
actual damages for any failure by Borrower to comply with the terms of this
Note. Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder
will cause irreparable harm to Holder and that the remedy at law for any such
breach may be inadequate. Borrower therefore agrees, in the event of any such
breach or threatened breach that Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all
other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the
necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being
required.

      OO. Waiver. Notwithstanding any provision in this Note to the contrary,
any provision contained herein and any right of the Holders granted hereunder
may be waived as to all Notes (and Holders thereof) only upon the written
consent of all of the Holders.

to the maintenance of such suit or proceeding in such forum. Borrower further
agrees that service of process upon Borrower mailed by first class mail shall be

non-appealable judgment in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment or in any other
lawful manner.

      WW. Severability. If any provision of this Note shall be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Note or the
validity or enforceability of this Note in any other jurisdiction.

principal of this Note.

present view towards the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to
sales that are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
and/or sales registered under the Securities Act. Such Purchaser understands
that such Purchaser must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely,
unless the Securities are registered pursuant to the Securities Act and any
applicable state securities or blue sky laws or an exemption from such
registration is available, and that the Company has no present intention of
registering the resale of any such Securities other than as contemplated by the
Registration Rights Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2(a) to
the contrary, by making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not
agree to hold the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves
the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with or
pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption from the registration

acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order

Purchaser to acquire the Securities.

all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company
and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities that have been

its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser's right to rely
on the Company's representations and warranties contained in Section 3 below.

Each Purchaser's representations and warranties made in this Article 2 are made
solely for the purpose of permitting the Company to make a determination that
the offer and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement comply with
applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and not for any other purpose.

any other purpose. No Purchaser has made or hereby makes any other
representations or warranties, express or implied, to the Company in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.
---------------------------------------------

Except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit C
executed and delivered by the Company to each Purchaser dated the date hereof
(the "Disclosure Schedule"), the Company represents and warrants to each
Purchaser as follows:

      Organization and Qualification. The Company and each of its direct and
indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the "Subsidiaries") is a corporation duly
organized and existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in
which it is incorporated or organized, and has the requisite corporate power to
own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. The
Company and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation
to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature
of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary and where the
failure so to qualify or be in good standing would have a Material Adverse
Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means any
effect which, individually or in the aggregate with all other effects,
reasonably would be expected to be materially adverse to (i) the Securities,
(ii) the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement
or the other Transaction Documents or (iii) the business, operations,
properties, prospects, financial condition or results of operations of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

      Authorization; Enforcement. (i) The Company has the requisite corporate
power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to issue and sell the Units in
accordance with the terms hereof, to issue the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of the Notes in accordance with the terms thereof; (ii) the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by the
Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Units and the
issuance and reservation for issuance of the Conversion Shares) have been duly
authorized by the Company's Board of Directors and no further consent or
authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors, or any committee of the
Board of Directors is required, and (iii) this Agreement constitutes, and, upon
execution and delivery by the Company of the other Transaction Documents, such
Transaction Documents will constitute, valid and binding obligations of the
Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective
terms. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of its
obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, nor the
consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
(including, without limitation, the issuance of the Units or the issuance or
reservation for issuance of the Conversion Shares) requires any consent or
authorization of the Company's stockholders (including, without limitation, any
consent under Rule 4350(i) of the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc.).

<PAGE>

      Capitalization. The capitalization of the Company as of the date hereof,
including the authorized capital stock, the number of shares issued and
outstanding, the number of shares issuable and reserved for issuance pursuant to

issuance pursuant to securities (other than the Notes) exercisable or
exchangeable for, or convertible into, any shares of capital stock and the
number of shares to be reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Notes is set
forth in Section 3(c) of the Disclosure Schedule. All of such outstanding shares
of capital stock have been, or upon issuance in accordance with the terms of any
such exercisable, exchangeable or convertible securities will be, validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. No shares of capital stock of the Company
(including the Conversion Shares) are subject to preemptive rights or any other
similar rights of the stockholders of the Company or any liens or encumbrances.
Except for the Securities and as set forth in Section 3(c) of the Disclosure
Schedule, (i) there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to
subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or
securities or rights convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, any
shares of capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or contracts,
commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries is or may become bound to issue additional shares of capital stock
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor are any such issuances,
contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements contemplated, (ii) there
are no contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements under which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is obligated to register the sale of any of
its or their securities under the Securities Act (except the Registration Rights
Agreement); (iii) there are no outstanding securities or instruments of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries which contain any redemption or similar
provisions, and there are no contracts, commitments, understandings or
arrangements by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may become
bound to redeem or otherwise acquire any security of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; and (iv) the Company does not have any shareholder rights plan,
"poison pill" or other anti-takeover plans or similar arrangements. Section 3(c)
of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth all of the securities or instruments
issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that contain anti-dilution or
similar provisions, and, except as and to the extent set forth thereon, the sale
and issuance of the Securities will not trigger any anti-dilution adjustments to
any such securities or instruments. The Company has furnished to each Purchaser
true and correct copies of the Company's organizational documents
("Organizational Documents") as in effect on the date hereof and all other
instruments and agreements governing securities convertible into or exercisable
or exchangeable for capital stock of the Company, all of which instruments and
agreements are set forth in Section 3(c) of the Disclosure Schedule. The Company
or one of its Subsidiaries has the unrestricted right to vote, and (subject to
limitations imposed by applicable law) to receive dividends and distributions
on, all capital securities of its Subsidiaries as owned by the Company or any
such Subsidiary.

<PAGE>

      Issuance of Securities. The Units are duly authorized and, upon issuance
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (i) will be validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens, claims and
encumbrances, (ii) will not be subject to preemptive rights, rights of first
refusal or other similar rights of stockholders of the Company or any other
person and (iii) will not impose personal liability on the holder thereof. The
Conversion Shares are duly authorized and reserved for issuance, and, upon
conversion of the Notes in accordance with the terms thereof, (x) will be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free from all taxes, liens,
claims and encumbrances, (y) will not be subject to preemptive rights, rights of
first refusal or other similar rights of stockholders of the Company or any
other person and (III) will not impose personal liability upon the holder
thereof.

      No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
and the other Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the
Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without
limitation, the issuance of the Units and the issuance and reservation for
issuance of the Conversion Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of the
Organizational Documents, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an
event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under,
or give to others any rights of termination, amendment (including, without
limitation, the triggering of any anti-dilution provisions), acceleration or
cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law,
rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including United States federal and
state securities laws, rules and regulations and rules and regulations of any
self-regulatory organizations to which either the Company or its securities are
subject) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any
property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected
(except, with respect to clauses (ii) and (iii), for such conflicts, defaults,
terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations that would
not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect).

      Compliance. The Company is not in violation of the Organizational
Documents, and no Subsidiary is in violation of its organizational documents.
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default (and no event has
occurred that with notice or lapse of time or both would put the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries in default) under, nor has there occurred any event giving
others (with notice or lapse of time or both) any rights of termination,
amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or
instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party
(including, without limitation, the Contracts (as defined in Section 3(g)
below)), except for actual or possible violations, defaults or rights that would
not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The
businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries are not being conducted, and
shall not be conducted so long as any Purchaser owns any of the Securities, in
violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity, except
for possible violations the sanctions for which either individually or in the
aggregate have not had and would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the
Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any director, officer, agent, employee
or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary has, in the
course of his actions for, or on behalf of, the Company or any Subsidiary, used
any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other
unlawful expenses relating to political activity, made any direct or indirect
unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from

government official or employee. The Company and its Subsidiaries possess all
certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal,
state, provincial or foreign regulatory authorities that are material to the
conduct of its business, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has
received any notice of proceeding relating to the revocation or modification of
any such certificate, authorization or permit. Except (i) as may be required
under the Securities Act in connection with the performance of the Company's
obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) for the filing of a
Form D with the SEC, (iii) as may be required for compliance with applicable
state securities or "blue sky" laws, or (iv) as otherwise set forth in Section
3(f) of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company is not required to obtain any
consent, approval, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration
with, any court or governmental agency or any regulatory or self-regulatory
agency or other third party in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any
of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction
Documents.

      SEC Documents, Financial Statements. Since January 1, 2000, the Company
has timely filed (within applicable extension periods) all reports, schedules,
forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the SEC
pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act") (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date
hereof and all exhibits included therein and financial statements and schedules
thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, the "SEC Documents").
The Company has delivered to each Purchaser true and complete copies of the SEC
Documents. As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all
material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act or the Securities
Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated
thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at
the time they were filed with the SEC, 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. None of the statements
made in any such SEC Documents is, or has been, required to be amended or
updated under applicable law (except for such statements as have been amended or
updated in subsequent filings made prior to the date hereof). As of their
respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC
Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable
accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC
applicable with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"),
consistently applied, during the periods involved (except as may be otherwise
indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto or, in the case of
unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or
may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material
respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their
operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of
unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial year-end audit adjustments). Except
as set forth in Section 3(g) of the Disclosure Statements, the Company has no
liabilities, contingent or otherwise, other than (i) liabilities incurred in the
ordinary course of business subsequent to the date of such financial statements
and (ii) obligations under contracts and commitments incurred in the ordinary
course of business and not required under GAAP to be reflected in such financial
statements, which liabilities and obligations referred to in clauses (i) and
(ii), individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the financial
condition or operating results of the Company. To the extent required by the
rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto, the Section 3(g) of the
Disclosure Statements contains a complete and accurate list of all material
undischarged written or oral contracts, agreements, leases or other instruments
to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any
Subsidiary is bound or to which any of the properties or assets of the Company
or any Subsidiary is subject (each, a "Contract"). Except as set forth in
Section 3(g) of the Disclosure Statements, none of the Company, its Subsidiaries
or, to the best knowledge of the Company, any of the other parties thereto is in
breach or violation of any Contract, which breach or violation would have a
Material Adverse Effect.

      Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries
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 a-14 and 15d-14) for the Company and designed such
disclosures controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating
to the Company, including its Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying
officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
which the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have
evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of a
date within 90 days prior to the filing date of the 2002 Annual Report and the
Company's most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (each such date, an
"Evaluation Date"). The Company presented in the 2002 Annual Report and its most
recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q the conclusions of the certifying
officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based
on their evaluations as of the respective Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation
Date for the 2002 Annual Report, 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 under the Exchange Act) or, to the Company's knowledge, in other
factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal controls.

      Absence of Certain Changes. Except as set forth in Section 3(i) of the
Disclosure Schedule, since December 31, 2002, there has been no material adverse
change and no material adverse development in the business, properties,
operations, prospects, financial condition or results of operations of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. The Company has not taken any
steps, and does not currently expect to take any steps, to seek protection
pursuant to any bankruptcy or receivership law, nor does the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries have any knowledge or reason to believe that its creditors
intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings with respect to the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

      Transactions With Affiliates. Except as set forth in Section 3(j) of the
Disclosure Schedule, none of the officers, directors, or employees of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is presently a party to any transaction with
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than for ordinary course services
solely in their capacity as officers, directors or employees), 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 such officer, director or
employee or any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any
such officer, director, or employee has an ownership interest of five percent or
more or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.

      Absence of Litigation. Except as disclosed in Section 3(k) of the
Disclosure Schedule, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency,
self-regulatory organization or body (including, without limitation, the SEC)
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
threatened against or affecting the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of
their respective directors or officers in their capacities as such. There are no
facts which, if known by a potential claimant or governmental authority, could
give rise to a claim or proceeding which, if asserted or conducted with results
unfavorable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The SEC has not issued any stop
order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement
filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act.

<PAGE>

      Intellectual Property. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns or is
duly licensed (and, in such event, has the unfettered right to grant
sublicenses) to use all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
applications, trade names, service marks, copyrights, copyright applications,
licenses, permits, inventions, discoveries, processes, scientific, technical,
engineering and marketing data, object and source codes, know-how (including
trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or
confidential information, systems or procedures) and other similar rights and
proprietary knowledge (collectively, "Intangibles") necessary for the conduct of
its business as now being conducted and as presently contemplated to be
conducted in the future. Section 3(l) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a
list of all Intangibles owned and/or used by the Company in its business. To the
knowledge of the Company and its Subsidiaries, neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary of the Company infringes or is in conflict with any right of any
other person with respect to any third party Intangibles. Neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries has received written notice of any pending conflict
with or infringement upon such third party Intangibles. Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries has entered into any consent agreement, indemnification
agreement, forbearance to sue or settlement agreement with respect to the
validity of the Company's or its Subsidiaries' ownership of or right to use its
Intangibles and there is no reasonable basis for any such claim to be
successful. The Intangibles are valid and enforceable and no registration
relating thereto has lapsed, expired or been abandoned or canceled or is the
subject of cancellation or other adversarial proceedings, and all applications
therefor are pending and in good standing. The Company and its Subsidiaries have
complied, in all material respects, with their respective contractual
obligations relating to the protection of the Intangibles used pursuant to
licenses. No person is infringing on or violating the Intangibles owned or used
by the Company or its Subsidiaries.

      Title. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in
fee simple to all real property and good and merchantable title to all personal
property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects
except such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not
materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property
by the Company and its Subsidiaries. Any real property and facilities held under
lease by the Company and its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid,
subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and
do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such
property and buildings by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

      Tax Status. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, the Company
and each of its Subsidiaries has made or filed all foreign, U.S. federal, state,
provincial and local income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations
required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and only to the
extent that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has set aside on its books
provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported
taxes) and has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges
that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns,
reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith and has set
aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes
for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or
declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to
be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the
Company know of no basis for any such claim. The Company has not executed a
waiver with respect to any statute of limitations relating to the assessment or
collection of any foreign, federal, state, provincial or local tax. None of the
Company's tax returns is presently being audited by any taxing authority.

<PAGE>

      Key Employees. Each of the Company's directors and officers and any Key
Employee (as defined below) is currently serving the Company in the capacity
disclosed in the Company's current SEC filings. No Key Employee is, or is now
expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract,
confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement,
non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive
covenant, and the continued employment of each Key Employee does not subject the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any material liability with respect to any
of the foregoing matters. No Key Employee has, to the knowledge of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, any intention to terminate or limit his employment with,
or services to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor is any such Key
Employee subject to any constraints which would cause such employee to be unable
to devote his full time and attention to such employment or services. For
purposes of this Agreement, "Key Employee" means the persons listed in Section
3(o) of the Disclosure Schedule and any individual who assumes or performs any
of the duties of a Key Employee.

      Employee Relations. (i) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is
involved in any material union labor dispute nor, to the knowledge of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, is any such dispute threatened. The Company
and its Subsidiaries believe that their relations with their employees are good;
(ii) no executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) of the Securities Act) has
notified the Company that such officer intends to leave the Company or otherwise
terminate such officer's employment with the Company; and (iii) the Company and
its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign
laws and regulations respecting employment and employment practices, terms and
conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in
compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

      Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has in force fire,
casualty, product liability and other insurance policies, with extended
coverage, sufficient in amount to allow it to replace any of its material
properties or assets which might be damaged or destroyed or sufficient to cover
liabilities to which the Company may reasonably become subject, and such types
and amounts of other insurance with respect to its business and properties, on
both a per occurrence and an aggregate basis, as are customarily carried by
persons engaged in the same or similar business as the Company. No default or
event has occurred that could give rise to a default under any such policy.

      Environmental Matters. There is no environmental litigation or other
environmental proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, threatened by any governmental regulatory authority or others
with respect to the current or any former business of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or any partnership or joint venture currently or at any time
affiliated with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. No state of facts exists
as to environmental matters or Hazardous Substances (as defined below) that
involves the reasonable likelihood of a material capital expenditure by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries that may otherwise have a Material Adverse
Effect. No Hazardous Substances have been treated, stored or disposed of, or
otherwise deposited, in or on the properties owned or leased by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or by any partnership or joint venture currently or at
any time affiliated with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in violation of
any applicable environmental laws. The environmental compliance programs of the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries comply in all respects with all
environmental laws, whether foreign, federal, state, provincial or local,
currently in effect. For purposes of this Agreement, "Hazardous Substances"
means any substance, waste, contaminant, pollutant or material that has been
determined by any governmental authority to be capable of posing a risk of
injury to health, safety, property or the environment.

<PAGE>

      Solvency. The Company's ability to pay all outstanding indebtedness, after
the Closing Date, is dependent on its ability to secure additional capital and
increase its revenue as more fully described in Section 3(s) of the Disclosure
Schedule. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay
such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to
be payable on or in respect of its debt).

      Listing. The Common Stock is currently listed for trading on the OTC
Bulletin Board (the "Bulletin Board"). The Company is not in violation of the
listing requirements of the Bulletin Board, does not reasonably anticipate that
the Common Stock will be delisted from the Bulletin Board for the foreseeable
future, and has not received any notice regarding the possible delisting of the
Common Stock from the Bulletin Board. The Company will attempt to secure
(subject to the Registration Rights Agreement) the listing of the Conversion
Shares on the Bulletin Board and on each other national securities exchange,
automated quotation system or over-the-counter market upon which shares of
Common Stock are currently listed (subject to official notice of issuance).

      Form S-3 Eligibility. The Company is eligible to register the resale of
its Common Stock on a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities
Act. There exist no facts or circumstances that would prohibit or delay the
preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to
the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).
The Company has no basis to believe that its past or present independent public
auditors will withhold their consent to the inclusion, or incorporation by
reference, of their audit opinion concerning the Company's financial statements
that are included in the Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to
the Registration Rights Agreement.

      Anti-Takeover Provisions. The Company and its board of directors have
taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control
share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution
under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under its
Organizational Documents or the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization
which is or could become applicable to any Purchaser as a result of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the
Company's issuance of the Securities or any other securities pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement and any and all Purchaser's ownership of the Securities
or any such other securities.

      Acknowledgment Regarding Each Purchaser's Purchase of the Securities. The
Company acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser is acting solely in the
capacity of arm's length purchaser with respect to this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and
that no Purchaser is (i) an officer or director of the Company, (ii) an
"affiliate" of the Company (as defined in Rule 144) or (iii) a "beneficial
owner" of more than 5% of the Common Stock (as defined for purposes of Rule
13d-3 of the Exchange Act). The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser
is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar
capacity) with respect to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by a
Purchaser or any of its representatives or agents in connection with this
Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Purchaser's purchase of the
Securities. The Company further represents to each Purchaser that the Company's
decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has
been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company and its
representatives.

<PAGE>

      No General Solicitation or Integrated Offering. Neither the Company nor
any distributor participating on the Company's behalf in the transactions
contemplated hereby (if any) nor any person acting for the Company, or any such
distributor, has conducted any "general solicitation" (as such term is defined
in Regulation D) with respect to any of the Securities being offered hereby.
Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor 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 require registration of the Securities being offered hereby under the
Securities Act or cause this offering of Securities to be integrated with any
prior offering of securities of the Company for purposes of the Securities Act,
which result of such integration would require registration under the Securities
Act, or any applicable stockholder approval provisions.

      No Brokers. The Company has taken no action that would give rise to any
claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder's fees or similar payments
by any Purchaser relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby.

      Acknowledgment Regarding Securities. The number of Conversion Shares
issuable upon conversion of the Notes may increase in certain circumstances. The
Company's directors and executive officers have studied and fully understand the
nature of the Securities being sold hereunder. The Company acknowledges that its
obligation to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes in accordance
with the terms thereof is absolute and unconditional, regardless of the dilution
that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders and
the availability of remedies provided for in any of the Transaction Documents
relating to a failure or refusal to issue Conversion Shares. Taking the
foregoing into account, the Company's Board of Directors has determined in its
good faith business judgment that the issuance of the Units hereunder and the
consummation of the other transactions contemplated hereby are in the best
interests of the Company and its stockholders.

      Disclosure. All information relating to or concerning the Company and/or
any of its Subsidiaries set forth in this Agreement or provided to the
Purchasers pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof or otherwise in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby is true and correct in all material respects
and the Company has not omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to
make the statements made herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or
exists with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective
businesses, properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which has
not been publicly disclosed but, under applicable law, rule or regulation, would
be required to be disclosed by the Company in a registration statement filed on
the date hereof by the Company under the Securities Act with respect to a
primary issuance of the Company's securities.

COVENANTS.

      Best Efforts. The parties shall use their respective best efforts timely
to satisfy each of the conditions described in Sections 6 and 7 of this
Agreement.

<PAGE>

      Form D; Blue Sky Laws. The Company shall file with the SEC a Form D with
respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and provide a copy
thereof to each Purchaser promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or
before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably
determine is necessary to qualify the Securities for sale to each Purchaser
pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the
states of the United States or obtain exemption therefrom, and shall provide
evidence of any such action so taken to each Purchaser on or prior to the
Closing Date. Within three days after the Closing Date, the Company shall file a
Form 8-K with the SEC concerning this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, which Form 8-K shall attach this Agreement and its Exhibits
as exhibits to such Form 8-K (the "8-K Filing"). From and after the 8-K Filing,
the Company hereby acknowledges that no Purchaser shall be in possession of any
material nonpublic information received from the Company, any of its
Subsidiaries or any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents,
that is not disclosed in the 8-K Filing. The Company shall not, and shall cause
each of its Subsidiaries and its and each of their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Purchaser with any material
nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and
after the 8-K Filing without the express written consent of such Purchaser;
provided, however, that a Purchaser that exercises its rights under Section 4(m)
hereof shall be deemed to have given such express written consent. In the event
of a breach of the foregoing covenant by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or
any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, in
addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the other Transaction
Documents, a Purchaser shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the
form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material
nonpublic information without the prior approval by the Company, its
Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees or
agents. No Purchaser shall have any liability to the Company, its Subsidiaries
or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders
or agents for any such disclosure. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company
nor any Purchaser shall issue any press releases or any other public statements
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that
the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to
make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such
transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and
contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required by applicable law and
regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Purchaser shall be
consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other
public disclosure prior to its release).

      Reporting Status. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective
affiliates) beneficially own any of the Securities, the Company shall timely
file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act,
and 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. In addition, the Company
shall take all actions necessary to meet the "registrant eligibility"
requirements set forth in the general instructions to Form S-3 or any successor
form thereto, to continue to be eligible to register the resale of its Common
Stock on a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act.

      Participation Right. Subject to the terms and conditions specified in this
Section 4(d), until the third anniversary of the date hereof, the Purchasers
shall have a right to participate in any issuance by the Company of (i) equity
or equity-linked securities, or (ii) debt which is convertible into equity or in
which there is an equity component ("Additional Securities") on the same terms
and conditions as offered by the Company to the other purchasers of such
Additional Securities. Each time the Company proposes to offer any Additional
Securities, the Company shall make an offering of such Additional Securities to
each Purchaser in accordance with the following provisions:

<PAGE>

      The Company shall deliver a notice (the "Notice") to the Purchasers, at
least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which it proposes to offer such
Additional Securities, stating (A) its bona fide intention to offer such
Additional Securities, (B) the number of such Additional Securities to be
offered, (C) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such
Additional Securities, and (D) the anticipated closing date of the sale of such
Additional Securities.

      Each Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable by delivering written
notice to such effect to the Company within twenty (20) days after such
Purchaser's receipt of the Notice, to purchase, at the price and on the terms
specified in the Notice, up to that portion of such Additional Securities which
equals the proportion that the number of Conversion Shares that such Purchaser
then owns or has the right to acquire (upon conversion of the Notes) bears to
the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full
conversion, exercise or exchange of all convertible, exercisable or exchangeable
securities then outstanding). The Company shall promptly, in writing, inform
each Purchaser that elects to purchase all of the Additional Shares available to
it (each, a "Fully-Exercising Purchaser") of any other Purchaser's failure to do
likewise, and, during the five-day period commencing after such information is
given, each Fully-Exercising Purchaser shall be entitled to purchase up to that
portion of the Additional Securities for which the Purchasers were entitled to
subscribe but which were not subscribed for by the Purchasers which is equal to
the proportion that the number of shares of Conversion Shares that such
Fully-Exercising Purchaser then owns or has the right to acquire (upon
conversion of the Notes) bears to the total number of shares of Conversion
Shares that all Fully-Exercising Purchasers who wish to purchase some of the
unsubscribed shares then own or have the right to acquire (upon conversion of
the Notes).

      If all Additional Securities which the Purchasers are entitled to purchase
pursuant to this Section 4(d) are not purchased as provided herein, the Company
may, during the 75-day period following the expiration of the 20-day period
(and, if necessary, such additional five-day period) provided in clause (ii),
offer the remaining unsubscribed portion of such Additional Securities to any
person at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree
than, as specified in the Notice. If the Company does not consummate the sale of
such Additional Securities within such period, the right provided hereunder
shall be deemed to be revived and such Additional Securities shall not be
offered or sold unless first reoffered to the Purchasers in accordance herewith.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the participation rights granted in this
Section 4(d) shall not be applicable to: (A) the issuance of shares of Common
Stock upon the exercise or conversion of the Company's options, warrants or
convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof and disclosed in
Section 3(c) of the Disclosure Schedule in accordance with the terms of such
options, warrants or other securities as in effect on the date hereof; (B) the
grant of options to purchase Common Stock, with exercise prices not less than
the market price of the Common Stock on the date of grant, or the grant of
restricted shares of Common Stock, in each case which are issued to employees,
officers, directors or consultants of the Company for the primary purpose of
soliciting or retaining their employment or service pursuant to an equity
compensation plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors, and the issuance
of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options; (C) the
issuance of securities pursuant to a bona fide underwritten public offering; (D)
the issuance of the Notes, the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes;
or (E) the issuance of securities in a bona fide business acquisition.

<PAGE>

      Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale and
issuance of the Units for general corporate purposes and working capital. Such
proceeds shall not be used to (i) pay dividends; (ii) pay for any increase in
executive compensation or make any loan or other advance to any officer,
employee, shareholder, director or other affiliate of the Company, without the
express approval of the Board of Directors acting in accordance with past
practice; (iii) purchase debt or equity securities of any entity (including
redeeming the Company's own securities), except for (A) evidences of
indebtedness issued or fully guaranteed by the United States of America and
having a maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition, (B)
certificates of deposit, notes, acceptances and repurchase agreements having a
maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition issued by a bank
organized in the United States having capital, surplus and undivided profits of
at least $500,000,000, (C) the highest-rated commercial paper having a maturity
of not more than one year from the date of acquisition, and (D) "Money Market"
fund shares, or money market accounts fully insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation and sponsored by banks and other financial institutions,
provided that the investments consist principally of the types of investments
described in clauses (A), (B), or (C) above; or (iv) make any investment not
directly related to the current business of the Company.

      Financial Information. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their
respective affiliates) beneficially own any Securities, the Company shall send
(via electronic transmission or otherwise) the following reports to such
Purchaser: (i) within ten days after the filing with the SEC, a copy of its
Annual Report on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, its proxy
statements and any Current Reports on Form 8-K; and (ii) within one day after
release, copies of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.

      Reservation of Shares. The Company currently has authorized and reserved
for the purpose of issuance a minimum of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock to
provide for the full conversion of the Notes and issuance of the Conversion
Shares in connection therewith and as otherwise required by the Notes and the
Registration Rights Agreement (collectively, the "Issuance Obligations"). In the
event such number of shares becomes insufficient to satisfy the Issuance
Obligations, the Company shall take all necessary action to authorize and
reserve such additional shares of Common Stock necessary to satisfy the Issuance
Obligations.

      Listing. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective affiliates)
beneficially own any Securities, the Company shall maintain the listing of all
Conversion Shares from time to time issuable upon conversion of the Notes on
each national securities exchange, automated quotation system or electronic
bulletin board on which shares of Common Stock are currently listed. The Company
shall use its best efforts to continue the listing and trading of its Common
Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Nasdaq SmallCap Market (the "SmallCap
Market"), or on the Nasdaq National Market (the "National Market"), the New York
Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") or the American Stock Exchange (the "AMEX") and
shall comply in all respects with the reporting, filing and other obligations
under the bylaws or rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. (the "NASD"), such exchanges, or such electronic system, as applicable. The
Company shall promptly provide to each Purchaser copies of any notices it
receives regarding the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for trading on
any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which securities of the
same class or series issued by the Company are then listed or quoted, if any.

<PAGE>

      Corporate Existence. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective
affiliates) beneficially owns any Securities, the Company shall maintain its
corporate existence, and in the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of all
or substantially all of the Company's assets, the Company shall ensure that the
surviving or successor entity in such transaction (i) assumes the Company's
obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the
agreements and instruments entered into in connection herewith and therewith
regardless of whether or not the Company would have had a sufficient number of
shares of Common Stock authorized and available for issuance in order to effect
the conversion of all the Notes outstanding as of the date of such transaction
and (ii) except in the event of a merger, consolidation of the Company into any
other corporation, or the sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company where the consideration consists solely of cash, the
surviving or successor entity is a publicly traded corporation whose common
stock is listed for trading on the SmallCap Market, the National Market, the
NYSE or the AMEX.

      No Integrated Offerings. The Company shall not make any offers or sales of
any security (other than the Securities) under circumstances that would require
registration of the Securities being offered or sold hereunder under the
Securities Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with
any other offering of securities by the Company for purposes of any stockholder
approval provision applicable to the Company or its securities.

      Legal Compliance. The Company shall conduct its business and the business
of its Subsidiaries in compliance with all laws, ordinances or regulations of
governmental entities applicable to such businesses, except where the failure to
do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

      Information. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective
affiliates) beneficially own any Securities, the Company shall furnish to each
such Purchaser:

            concurrently with the filing with the SEC of its annual reports on
Form 10-K, a certificate of the President, a Vice President or a senior
financial officer of the Company stating that, based upon such examination or
investigation and review of this Agreement as in the opinion of the signer is
necessary to enable the signer to express an informed opinion with respect
thereto, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is or has during such
period been in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms,
covenants or conditions hereof, or, if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
shall be or shall have been in default, specifying all such defaults, and the
nature and period of existence thereof, and what action the Company or such
Subsidiary has taken, is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto; and

            the information the Company must deliver to any holder or to any
prospective transferee of Securities in order to permit the sale or other
transfer of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144A of the SEC or any similar rule
then in effect.

The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a true copy of this
Agreement (as at the time in effect), and cause the same to be available for
inspection at such office during normal business hours by any holder of
Securities or any prospective transferee of Securities designated by a holder
thereof.

<PAGE>

      Inspection of Properties and Books. So long as any Purchasers (or any of
their respective affiliates) beneficially own any Securities, each such
Purchaser and its representatives and agents (collectively, the "Inspectors")
shall have the right, at such Purchaser's expense, to visit and inspect any of
the properties of the Company and of its Subsidiaries, to examine the books of
account and records of the Company and of its Subsidiaries, to make or be
provided with copies and extracts therefrom, to discuss the affairs, finances
and accounts of the Company and of its Subsidiaries with, and to be advised as
to the same by, its and their officers, employees and independent public
accountants (and by this provision the Company authorizes such accountants to
discuss such affairs, finances and accounts, whether or not a representative of
the Company is present) all at such reasonable times and intervals and to such
reasonable extent as the Purchasers may desire; provided, however, that each
Inspector shall hold in confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to
such Purchaser) of any such information which the Company determines in good
faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so
notified, unless (i) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or
correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement filed pursuant
to the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) the release of such information is
ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or government body of
competent jurisdiction, or (iii) such information has been made generally
available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any
other agreement. Each Purchaser agrees that it shall, upon learning that
disclosure of such information is sought in or by a court or governmental body
of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the
Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action
to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the information
deemed confidential.

      Shareholders Rights Plan. No claim shall be made or enforced by the
Company or any other person that any Purchaser is an "Acquiring Person" under
any shareholders rights plan or similar plan or arrangement in effect or
hereafter adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser could be deemed to
trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving
Securities under this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or under any
other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.

      Pledge of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the
Securities may be pledged by any Purchaser in connection with a bona fide margin
agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the
Securities. The pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale
or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and no Purchaser effecting a pledge
of Securities shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof
or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document. The Company shall execute and deliver such
documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in
connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee by a Purchaser.

      Variable Securities. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective
affiliates) beneficially own any Securities, the Company shall not, without
first obtaining the written approval of the holders of a majority of the
aggregate principal face amount of the Notes then outstanding (which approval
may be given or withheld by such holders in their sole and absolute discretion),
issue or sell any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase
Common Stock, or any other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock, at an effective conversion,
exchange or exercise price that varies or may vary with the market price of the
Common Stock, including by way of one or more reset(s) to any fixed price.

      Expenses. At the Closing, the Company shall pay to MicroCapital LLC
("MicroCapital") reimbursement for the out-of-pocket expenses reasonably
incurred by MicroCapital, its affiliates and its or their advisors in connection
with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, MicroCapital's
and its affiliates' and advisors' reasonable due diligence and attorneys' fees
and expenses (the "Expenses"); provided, however, that the aggregate amount of
the Expenses payable to MicroCapital shall not exceed $10,000 (the "Expense
Cap") unless prior approval is obtained from the Company.

SECURITIES TRANSFER MATTERS.

      Conversion and Exercise. Upon conversion of the Notes by any person, (i)
if the DTC Transfer Conditions (as defined below) are satisfied, the Company
shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit all Conversion Shares
by crediting the account of such person or its nominee with the Depository Trust
Company ("DTC") through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system; or (ii)
if the DTC Transfer Conditions are not satisfied, the Company shall issue and
deliver, or instruct its transfer agent to issue and deliver, certificates
(subject to the legend and other applicable provisions hereof), registered in
the name of such person its nominee, physical certificates representing the
Conversion Shares. Even if the DTC Transfer Conditions are satisfied, any person
effecting a conversion of Notes may instruct the Company to deliver to such
person or its nominee physical certificates representing the Conversion Shares
in lieu of delivering such shares by way of DTC Transfer. For purposes of this
Agreement, "DTC Transfer Conditions" means that (A) the Company's transfer agent
is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer program and (B)
the certificates for the Conversion Shares required to be delivered do not bear
a legend and the person effecting such conversion or exercise is not then
required to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon.

      Transfer or Resale. Each Purchaser understands that (i) except as provided
in the Registration Rights Agreement, the sale or resale of the Securities have
not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state
securities laws, and the Securities may not be transferred unless (A) the
transfer is made pursuant to and as set forth in an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act covering the Securities; or (B) such
Purchaser shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel (which
opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel
in comparable transactions) to the effect that the Securities to be sold or
transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such
registration; or (C) sold under and in compliance with Rule 144; or (D) sold or
transferred to an affiliate of such Purchaser that is an Accredited Investor and
agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the Securities only in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 5(b); and (ii) neither the Company nor any other
person is under any obligation to register such Securities under the Securities
Act or any state securities laws (other than pursuant to the terms of the
Registration Rights Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else
contained herein to the contrary, the Securities may be pledged as collateral in
connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement,
provided such pledge is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

      Legends. Each Purchaser understands that the Notes and, until such time as
the Conversion Shares have been registered under the Securities Act (including
registration pursuant to Rule 416 thereunder) as contemplated by the
Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise may be sold by such Purchaser under
Rule 144, the certificates for the Conversion Shares may bear a restrictive
legend in substantially the following form:

      The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered
      under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of
      any state of the United States or in any other jurisdiction. The
      securities represented hereby may not be offered, sold or transferred in
      the absence of an effective registration statement for the securities
      under applicable securities laws unless offered, sold or transferred
      pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of
      those laws.

<PAGE>

The Company shall, immediately prior to a registration statement covering the
Securities (including, without limitation, the Registration Statement
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement) being declared effective,
deliver to its transfer agent an opinion letter of counsel, opining that at any
time such registration statement is effective, the transfer agent shall issue,
in connection with the issuance of the Conversion Shares, certificates
representing such Conversion Shares without the restrictive legend above,
provided such Conversion Shares are to be sold pursuant to the prospectus
contained in such registration statement. Upon receipt of such opinion, the
Company shall cause the transfer agent to confirm, for the benefit of the
holders, that no further opinion of counsel is required at the time of transfer
in order to issue such shares without such restrictive legend.

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a
certificate without such legend to the holder of any Security upon which it is
stamped, if, unless otherwise required by state securities laws, (i) the sale of
such Security is registered under the Securities Act (including registration
pursuant to Rule 416 thereunder); (ii) such holder provides the Company with an
opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of
counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer
of such Security may be made without registration under the Securities Act; or
(iii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such
Security can be sold under Rule 144. In the event the above legend is removed
from any Security and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement
covering such Security is suspended or the Company determines that a supplement
or amendment thereto is required by applicable securities laws, then upon
reasonable advance written notice to such Purchaser the Company may require that
the above legend be placed on any such Security that cannot then be sold
pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144 and such
Purchaser shall cooperate in the replacement of such legend. Such legend shall
thereafter be removed when such Security may again be sold pursuant to an
effective registration statement or under Rule 144.

      Transfer Agent Instructions. Upon compliance by any Purchaser with the
provisions of this Section 5 with respect to the transfer of any Securities, the
Company shall permit the transfer of such Securities and, in the case of the
transfer of Conversion Shares, promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one
or more certificates (or effect a DTC Transfer) in such name and in such
denominations as specified by such Purchaser. The Company shall not give any
instructions to its transfer agent with respect to the Securities, other than
any permissible or required instructions provided in this Section 5, and the
Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of
the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

<PAGE>

      Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of

person.

      Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company and the
agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 3, 4, 5 and 8 hereof shall
survive the Closing notwithstanding any due diligence investigation conducted by
or on behalf of any Purchaser. Moreover, none of the representations and
warranties made by the Company herein shall act as a waiver of any rights or
remedies any Purchaser may have under applicable U.S. federal or state
securities laws.

      Publicity. The Company and each Purchaser shall have the right to approve
before issuance any press releases, SEC or, to the extent applicable, NASD
filings, or any other public statements with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled,
without the prior approval of the Purchasers, to make any press release or SEC
or, to the extent applicable, NASD filings with respect to such transactions as
is required by applicable law and regulations (although the Purchasers shall be
consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release and filing
prior to its release and shall be provided with a copy thereof and must provide
specific consent to the use of their name in connection therewith).

      Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done
and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver
all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other
party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the
purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

      Indemnification. In consideration of each Purchaser's execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and purchase of
the Securities hereunder, and in addition to all of the Company's other
obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, from and
after the Closing, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold
harmless each Purchaser and each other holder of the Securities and all of their
stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or
indirect investors and any of the foregoing persons' agents or other
representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, collectively, the
"Indemnitees") from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits,
claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in
connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to
the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the "Indemnified Liabilities"),
incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i)
any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the
Company in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other
certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any
breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this
Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument
or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (iii) any cause of action, suit or
claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for
these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising
out of or resulting from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement
of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate,
instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) any transaction
financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the
proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Securities, (C) any disclosure made by
such Purchaser pursuant to Section 4(b) or 4(m) hereof, or (D) the status of
such Purchaser or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company. To the
extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for
any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and
satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under
applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and
procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 8(l)
shall be the same as those set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

<PAGE>

      Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or
payments to any Purchaser hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction
Documents or any Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights hereunder or
thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or
exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are
required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee,
receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force
and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff
had not occurred.

      Joint Participation in Drafting. Each party to this Agreement has
participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents. As such, the language used herein and therein shall be
deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual
intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party to
this Agreement.

      Remedies. No provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
providing for any remedy to a Purchaser shall limit any other remedy which would
otherwise be available to such Purchaser at law, in equity or otherwise. Nothing
in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall limit any rights any
Purchaser may have under any applicable federal or state securities laws with
respect to the investment contemplated hereby. The Company acknowledges that a
breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the
Purchasers by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated
hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a
breach of its obligations hereunder (including, but not limited to, its
obligations pursuant to Section 5 hereof) will be inadequate and agrees, in the
event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this
Agreement (including, but not limited to, its obligations pursuant to Section 5
hereof), that each Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to all other
available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring
immediate issuance and transfer of the Securities, without the necessity of
showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

      Knowledge. As used in this Agreement, the term "knowledge" of any person
or entity shall mean and include (i) actual knowledge and (ii) that knowledge
which a reasonably prudent business person could have obtained in the management
of his or her business affairs after making due inquiry and exercising due
diligence which a prudent business person should have made or exercised, as
applicable, with respect thereto.
