subsequently determined as unnecessary.  The determination of the
adjusted  net  profits  made by the independent  accounting  firm
employed by the Employer shall be final and binding upon Employee
and the Employer.  For the first and last fiscal years ending and
beginning,  respectively, during the term of this Agreement,  the
incentive  salary  shall be computed for the  proportion  of  the
fiscal  year  coextensive  with this  Agreement.   The  incentive
salary shall be paid within sixty (60) days after the end of each

year  shall  not  exceed two hundred percent of  Employee's  base
annual salary unless authorized by the Board of Directors.
      C.    The Board of Directors and the Employee may agree  to

unrestricted,  free-trading common stock of the  Corporation,  or
(b)  accept partial payment of Employee's salary in cash with the
balance  to  be paid to Employee in cash upon demand at  a  later
date.   Should  Employee elect (a) above,  the  value  of  shares
issued  in  lieu of cash shall be determined by the  average  bid
price  of  the  Corporation's common stock at the  close  of  the
market  for  the  10 trading days prior to  Employee's  scheduled
payday  as  defined in (4.A.) of this agreement.  The percentage,
if  any, of salary and/or bonus taken in stock in lieu of cash is

opportunity to ask questions of the Company.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company has not disclosed to the Buyer any
material nonpublic information and will not disclose such
information unless such information is disclosed to the public
prior to or promptly following such disclosure to the Buyer.
Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation
conducted by Buyer or any of its advisors or representatives
shall modify, amend or affect Buyer's right to rely on the
Company's representations and warranties contained in Section 3
below.  The Buyer understands that its investment in the
Securities involves a significant degree of risk.

          e.   Governmental Review.  The Buyer understands that no United
               -------------------
States federal or state agency or any other government or
governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or
endorsement of the Securities.

          f.   Transfer or Re-sale.  The Buyer understands that (i) except
               -------------------
as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, the sale or re-

the Securities may not be transferred unless (a) the Securities
are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under
the 1933 Act, (b) the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company
an opinion of counsel that 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, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company,
(c) the Securities are sold or transferred to an "affiliate" (as
defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act (or a

otherwise transfer the Securities only in accordance with this
Section 2(f) and who is an Accredited Investor, (d) the
Securities are sold pursuant to Rule 144, or (e) the Securities
are sold pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act (or a
successor rule) ("Regulation S"), and the Buyer shall have
delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel that shall be in
form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in
corporate transactions, which opinion shall be accepted by the
Company; (ii) any sale of such Securities made in reliance on
Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of said
Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any re-sale of
such Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the
person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an
underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require
compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the
rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither
the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to
register such Securities under the 1933 Act or any state
securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any
exemption thereunder (in each case, other than pursuant to 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.  In the event that
the Company does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by
the Buyer with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to
an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulation S,
within three (3) business days of delivery of the opinion to the

                               3

<PAGE>

Company, the Company shall pay to the Buyer liquidated damages of
three percent (3%) of the outstanding amount of the Notes per
month plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, prorated for
partial months, in cash or shares at the option of the Company
("Standard Liquidated Damages Amount").  If the Company elects to
be pay the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount in shares of Common
Stock, such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price at the
time of payment.

          g.   Legends.  The Buyer understands that the Notes and the
               -------
Warrants and, until such time as the Conversion Shares and
Warrant Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act as
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise
may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S without any
restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular
date that can then be immediately sold, the Conversion Shares and
Warrant Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the
following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against
transfer of the certificates for such Securities):

          "The securities represented by this
          certificate have not been registered under
          the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  The
          securities may not be sold, transferred or
          assigned in the absence of an effective
          registration statement for the securities
          under said Act, or an opinion of counsel, in
          form, substance and scope customary for
          opinions of counsel in comparable
          transactions, that registration is not
          required under said Act or unless sold
          pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S under
          said Act."

     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 applicable state securities laws, (a) such  Security
is  registered for sale under an effective registration statement
filed  under  the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold  pursuant  to
Rule 144 or Regulation S without any restriction as to the number
of   securities  as  of  a  particular  date  that  can  then  be
immediately sold, or (b) 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 1933 Act, which opinion shall  be
accepted  by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected
or   (c)   such  holder  provides  the  Company  with  reasonable
assurances that such Security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or
Regulation S.  The Buyer agrees to sell all Securities, including
those  represented by a certificate(s) from which the legend  has
been  removed, in compliance with applicable prospectus  delivery
requirements, if any.

Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue
Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon conversion of the Notes
or exercise of the Warrants in accordance with this Agreement,

become a default) under, or give to others any rights of
termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any
agreement, indenture, patent, patent license or instrument to

result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws
and regulations and regulations of any self-regulatory
organizations to which 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 for such conflicts, defaults,

at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue

party, relating to whether the Information Technology is Year

circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  No
event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their business,
properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which,
under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public
disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been
so publicly announced or disclosed (assuming for this purpose
that the Company's reports filed under the 1934 Act are being
incorporated into an effective registration statement filed by
the Company under the 1933 Act).

          o.   Acknowledgment Regarding Buyers' Purchase of Securities.
               -------------------------------------------------------
The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Buyers are acting
solely in the capacity of arm's length purchasers with respect to
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  The
Company further acknowledges that no Buyer is acting as a
financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar
capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby and any statement made by any Buyer or any of
their respective representatives or agents in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is not
advice or a recommendation and is merely incidental to the
Buyers' purchase of the Securities.  The Company further
represents to each Buyer that the Company's decision to enter
into this Agreement has been based solely on the independent
evaluation of the Company and its representatives.

          p.   No Integrated Offering.  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 in any security
or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances
that would require registration under the 1933 Act of the
issuance of the Securities to the Buyers.  The issuance of the
Securities to the Buyers will not be integrated with any other
issuance of the Company's securities (past, current or future)

                               10

<PAGE>

for purposes of any shareholder approval provisions applicable to
the Company or its securities.

          q.   No Brokers.  The Company has taken no action which would
               ----------
give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions,
transaction fees or similar payments relating to this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated hereby.

          r.   Permits; Compliance.  The Company and each of its
               -------------------
Subsidiaries is in possession of all franchises, grants,
authorizations, licenses, permits, easements, variances,
exemptions, consents, certificates, approvals and orders
necessary to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry
on its business as it is now being conducted (collectively, the
"Company Permits"), and there is no action pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened regarding suspension or
cancellation of any of the Company Permits.  Neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries is in conflict with, or in default or
violation of, any of the Company Permits, except for any such
conflicts, defaults or violations which, individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.  Since May 31, 2003, neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries has received any notification with respect to
possible conflicts, defaults or violations of applicable laws,
except for notices relating to possible conflicts, defaults or
violations, which conflicts, defaults or violations would not
have a Material Adverse Effect.

           s.   Environmental Matters.
                ---------------------

                (i)  Except as set forth in Schedule 3(s), there are,
to the Company's knowledge, with respect to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or any predecessor of the Company, no past or
present violations of Environmental Laws (as defined below),
releases of any material into the environment, actions,
activities, circumstances, conditions, events, incidents, or
contractual obligations which may give rise to any common law
environmental liability or any liability under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 or
similar federal, state, local or foreign laws and neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice with
respect to any of the foregoing, nor is any action pending or, to
the Company's knowledge, threatened in connection with any of the
foregoing.  The term "Environmental Laws" means all federal,
state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection
of human health or the environment (including, without
limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface
or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws
relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened
releases of chemicals, pollutants contaminants, or toxic or
hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, "Hazardous
Materials") into the environment, or otherwise relating to the
manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage,
disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well
as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters,
injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters,
orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered,
promulgated or approved thereunder.

               (ii)  Other than those that are or were stored, used
or disposed of in compliance with applicable law, no Hazardous Materials
are contained on or about any real property currently owned, leased
or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and no
Hazardous Materials were released on or about any real property
previously owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its

                               11

<PAGE>

Subsidiaries during the period the property was owned, leased or
used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except in the
normal course of the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries'
business.

               (iii)  Except as set forth in Schedule 3(s), there
are no underground storage tanks on or under any real property owned,
leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that are
not in compliance with applicable law.

          t.   Title to Property.  The Company and its Subsidiaries have
               -----------------
good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and
good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them
which 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 are described in Schedule
3(t) or such as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.  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 would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.

          u.   Insurance.  The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are
               ---------
insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility
against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management
of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the
businesses in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are engaged.
Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has any reason to
believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance
coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar
coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue
its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.  The Company has provided to Buyer true and correct
copies of all policies relating to directors' and officers'
liability coverage, errors and omissions coverage, and commercial
general liability coverage.

          v.   Internal Accounting Controls.  The Company and each of its
               ----------------------------
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls
sufficient, in the judgment of the Company's board of directors,
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
generally accepted accounting principles 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.

          w.   Foreign Corrupt Practices.  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, 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
corporate funds; violated or is in violation of any provision of
the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or
made any bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or
other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government
official or employee.

                               12

<PAGE>

          x.   Solvency.  The Company (after giving effect to the
               --------
transactions contemplated by this Agreement) is solvent (i.e.,
its assets have a fair market value in excess of the amount
required to pay its probable liabilities on its existing debts as
they become absolute and matured) and currently the Company has
no information that would lead it to reasonably conclude that the
Company would not, after giving effect to the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement, have the ability to, nor does it
intend to take any action that would impair its ability to, pay
its debts from time to time incurred in connection therewith as
such debts mature.  The Company did not receive a qualified
opinion from its auditors with respect to its most recent fiscal
year end and, after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, does not anticipate or know of
any basis upon which its auditors might issue a qualified opinion
in respect of its current fiscal year.

          y.   No Investment Company.  The Company is not, and upon the
               ---------------------
issuance and sale of the Securities as contemplated by this
Agreement will not be an "investment company" required to be
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (an
"Investment Company").  The Company is not controlled by an
Investment Company.

          z.   Breach of Representations and Warranties by the Company.  If
               -------------------------------------------------------
the Company breaches any of the representations or warranties set
forth in this Section 3, and in addition to any other remedies
available to the Buyers pursuant to this Agreement, the Company
shall pay to the Buyer the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount in
cash or in shares of Common Stock at the option of the Company,
until such breach is cured.  If the Company elects to pay the
Standard Liquidated Damages Amounts in shares of Common Stock,
such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price at the time
of payment.

     4.   COVENANTS.
          ---------

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

          b.   Form D; Blue Sky Laws.  The Company agrees to file a Form D
               ---------------------
with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and
to provide a copy thereof to each Buyer 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 the Buyers at the
applicable closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable
securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the United States
(or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall
provide evidence of any such action so taken to each Buyer on or
prior to the Closing Date.

          c.   Reporting Status; Eligibility to Use Form S-3, SB-2 or Form
               -----------------------------------------------------------
S-1.  The Company's Common Stock is registered under Section
---
12(g) of the 1934 Act. The Company represents and warrants that
it meets the requirements for the use of Form S-3 (or if the
Company is not eligible for the use of Form S-3 as of the Filing
Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the
Company may use  the form of registration for which it is
eligible at that time) for registration of the sale by the Buyer
of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement).  So long as the Buyer beneficially owns any of
the Securities, the Company shall timely file all reports
required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and

                               13

<PAGE>

the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required
to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the
rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.
The Company further agrees to file all reports required to be
filed by the Company with the SEC in a timely manner so as to
become eligible, and thereafter to maintain its eligibility, for
the use of Form S-3.  The Company shall issue a press release
describing the materials terms of the transaction contemplated
hereby as soon as practicable following the Closing Date but in
no event more than two (2) business days of the Closing Date,
which press release shall be subject to prior review by the
Buyers.  The Company agrees that such press release shall not
disclose the name of the Buyers unless expressly consented to in
writing by the Buyers or unless required by applicable law or
regulation, and then only to the extent of such requirement.

          d.   Use of Proceeds.  The Company shall use the proceeds from
               ---------------
the sale of the Notes and the Warrants in the manner set forth in
Schedule 4(d) attached hereto and made a part hereof  and shall
not, directly or indirectly, use such proceeds for any loan to or
investment in any other corporation, partnership, enterprise or
other person (except in connection with its currently existing
direct or indirect Subsidiaries)

          e.   Future Offerings.  Subject to the exceptions described
               ----------------
below, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of
a majority-in-interest of the Buyers, not to be unreasonably
withheld, negotiate or contract with any party to obtain
additional equity financing (including debt financing with an
equity component) that involves (A) the issuance of Common Stock
at a discount to the market price of the Common Stock on the date
of issuance (taking into account the value of any warrants or
options to acquire Common Stock issued in connection therewith)
or (B) the issuance of convertible securities that are
convertible into an indeterminate number of shares of Common
Stock or (C) the issuance of warrants during the period (the
"Lock-up Period") beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the
later of (i) two hundred seventy (270) days from the Closing Date
and (ii) one hundred eighty (180) days from the date the
Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights
Agreement) is declared effective (plus any days in which sales
cannot be made thereunder).  In addition, subject to the
exceptions described below, the Company will not conduct any
equity financing (including debt with an equity component)
("Future Offerings") during the period beginning on the Closing
Date and ending two (2) years after the end of the Lock-up Period
unless it shall have first delivered to each Buyer, at least
twenty (20) business days prior to the closing of such Future
Offering, written notice describing the proposed Future Offering,
including the terms and conditions thereof and proposed
definitive documentation to be entered into in connection
therewith, and providing each Buyer an option during the fifteen
(15) day period following delivery of such notice to purchase its
pro rata share (based on the ratio that the aggregate principal
amount of Notes purchased by it hereunder bears to the aggregate
principal amount of Notes purchased hereunder) of the securities
being offered in the Future Offering on the same terms as
contemplated by such Future Offering (the limitations referred to
in this sentence and the preceding sentence are collectively
referred to as the "Capital Raising Limitations").  In the event
the terms and conditions of a proposed Future Offering are
amended in any respect after delivery of the notice to the Buyers
concerning the proposed Future Offering, the Company shall
deliver a new notice to each Buyer describing the amended terms
and conditions of the proposed Future Offering and each Buyer
thereafter shall have an option during the fifteen (15) day
period following delivery of such new notice to purchase its pro
rata share of the securities being offered on the same terms as

                               14

<PAGE>

contemplated by such proposed Future Offering, as amended.  The
foregoing sentence shall apply to successive amendments to the
terms and conditions of any proposed Future Offering.  The
Capital Raising Limitations shall not apply to any transaction
involving (i) issuances of securities in a firm commitment
underwritten public offering (excluding a continuous offering
pursuant to Rule 415 under the 1933 Act) or (ii) issuances of
securities as consideration for a merger, consolidation or
purchase of assets, or in connection with any strategic
partnership or joint venture (the primary purpose of which is not
to raise equity capital), or in connection with the disposition
or acquisition of a business, product or license by the Company.
The Capital Raising Limitations also shall not apply to the
issuance of securities upon exercise or conversion of the
Company's options, warrants or other convertible securities
outstanding as of the date hereof or to the grant of additional
options or warrants, or the issuance of additional securities,
under any Company stock option or restricted stock plan approved
by the shareholders of the Company.

          f.   Expenses.  At the Closing, the Company shall reimburse
               --------
Buyers for expenses incurred by them in connection with the
negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement and the other agreements to be executed in
connection herewith ("Documents"), including, without limitation,
attorneys' and consultants' fees and expenses, transfer agent
fees, fees for stock quotation services, fees relating to any
amendments or modifications of the Documents or any consents or
waivers of provisions in the Documents, fees for the preparation
of opinions of counsel, escrow fees, and costs of restructuring
the transactions contemplated by the Documents.  When possible,
the Company must pay these fees directly, otherwise the Company
must make immediate payment for reimbursement to the Buyers for
all fees and expenses immediately upon written notice by the
Buyer or the submission of an invoice by the Buyer  If the
Company fails to reimburse the Buyer in full within three (3)
business days of the written notice or submission of invoice by
the Buyer, the Company shall pay interest on the total amount of
fees to be reimbursed at a rate of 15% per annum.

          g.   Financial Information.  The Company agrees to send the
               ---------------------
following reports to each Buyer until such Buyer transfers,
assigns, or sells all of the Securities: (i) within ten (10) days
after the filing with the SEC, a copy of its Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB and any Current
Reports on Form 8-K; (ii) within one (1) day after release,
copies of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; and (iii) contemporaneously with the making
available or giving to the shareholders of the Company, copies of
any notices or other information the Company makes available or
gives to such shareholders.

          h.   Authorization and Reservation of Shares.  Subject to the
               ---------------------------------------
Stockholder Approval (as defined in Section 4(o), the Company
shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose
of issuance, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to
provide for the full conversion or exercise of the outstanding
Notes and Warrants and issuance of the Conversion Shares and
Warrant Shares in connection therewith (based on the Conversion
Price of the Notes or Exercise Price of the Warrants in effect
from time to time) and as otherwise required by the Notes.  The
Company shall not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance upon conversion of Notes and exercise of
the Warrants without the consent of each Buyer.  The Company
shall at all times maintain the number of shares of Common Stock

                               15

<PAGE>

so reserved for issuance at an amount ("Reserved Amount") equal
to no less than two (2) times the number that is then actually
issuable upon full conversion of the Notes and Additional Notes
and upon exercise of the Warrants and the Additional Warrants
(based on the Conversion Price of the Notes or the Exercise Price
of the Warrants in effect from time to time).  If at any time the
number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for
issuance ("Authorized and Reserved Shares") is below the Reserved
Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action
necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares,
including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of
shareholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company's
obligations under this Section 4(h), in the case of an
insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain shareholder
approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and
voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an
increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that
the number of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the
Reserved Amount.  If the Company fails to obtain such shareholder
approval within thirty (30) days following the date on which the
number of Reserved Amount exceeds the Authorized and Reserved
Shares, the Company shall pay to the Borrower the Standard
Liquidated Damages Amount, in cash or in shares of Common Stock
at the option of the Buyer.  If the Buyer elects to be paid the
Standard Liquidated Damages Amount in shares of Common Stock,
such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price at the time
of payment.  In order to ensure that the Company has authorized a
sufficient amount of shares to meet the Reserved Amount at all
times, the Company must deliver to the Buyer at the end of every
month a list detailing (1) the current amount of shares
authorized by the Company and reserved for the Buyer; and (2)
amount of shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and upon
exercise of the Warrants and as payment of interest accrued on
the Notes for one year.  If the Company fails to provide such
list within five (5) business days of the end of each month, the
Company shall pay the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount, in cash
or in shares of Common Stock at the option of the Buyer, until
the list is delivered.  If the Buyer elects to be paid the
Standard Liquidated Damages Amount in shares of Common Stock,
such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price at the time
of payment.

          i.   Listing.  The Company shall promptly secure the listing of
               -------
the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon each national
securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon
which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official
notice of issuance) and, so long as any Buyer owns any of the
Securities, shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common
Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all Conversion Shares
and Warrant Shares from time to time issuable upon conversion of
the Notes or exercise of the Warrants.  The Company will obtain
and, so long as any Buyer owns any of the Securities, maintain
the listing and trading of its Common Stock on the OTCBB or any
equivalent replacement exchange, the Nasdaq National Market
("Nasdaq"), the Nasdaq SmallCap Market ("Nasdaq SmallCap"), the
New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), or the American Stock Exchange
("AMEX") and will comply in all respects with the Company's
reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules
of the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD") and
such exchanges, as applicable.  The Company shall promptly
provide to each Buyer copies of any notices it receives from the
OTCBB and any other exchanges or quotation systems on which the
Common Stock is then listed regarding the continued eligibility
of the Common Stock for listing on such exchanges and quotation
systems.

                               16

<PAGE>

          j.   Corporate Existence.  So long as a Buyer beneficially owns
               -------------------
any Notes or Warrants, the Company shall maintain its corporate
existence and shall not sell all or substantially all of the
Company's assets, except in the event of a merger or
consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets, where the surviving or successor entity in such
transaction (i) assumes the Company's obligations hereunder and
under the agreements and instruments entered into in connection
herewith and (ii) is a publicly traded corporation whose Common
Stock is listed for trading on the OTCBB, Nasdaq, Nasdaq
SmallCap, NYSE or AMEX.

          k.   No Integration.  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 1933 Act or cause the
offering of the Securities to be integrated with any other
offering of securities by the Company for the purpose of any
stockholder approval provision applicable to the Company or its
securities.

          l.   Subsequent Investment.  The Company and the Buyers agree
               ---------------------
that, upon the filing by the Company of the Registration
Statement to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement (the "Filing Date"), the Buyers shall purchase
additional Notes (the "Filing Notes") in the aggregate principal
amount of One Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,100,000)
and additional warrants (the "Filing Warrants") to purchase an
aggregate of 1,100,000 shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate
purchase price of One Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($1,100,000), with the closing of such purchase to occur within
five (5) days of the Filing Date; provided, however, that the
obligation of each Buyer to purchase the Filing Notes and the
Filing Warrants is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the
closing of such purchase and sale, of the conditions set forth in
Section 7.  The Company and the Buyers further agree that, upon
the declaration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement to
be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (the
"Effective Date"), the Buyers shall purchase additional notes
(the "Effectiveness Notes" and, collectively with the Filing
Notes, the "Additional Notes") in the aggregate principal amount
of One Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,100,000) and
additional warrants (the "Effectiveness Warrants" and,
collectively with the Filing Warrants, the "Additional Warrants")
to purchase an aggregate of 1,100,000 shares of Common Stock, for
an aggregate purchase price of One Million One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($1,100,000), with the closing of such purchase to occur
within five (5) days of the Effective Date; provided, however,
that the obligation of each Buyer to purchase the Additional
Notes and the Additional Warrants is subject to the satisfaction,
at or before the closing of such purchase and sale, of the
conditions set forth in Section 7; and, provided, further, that
there shall not have been a Material Adverse Effect as of such
effective date.  The terms of the Additional Notes and the
Additional Warrants shall be identical to the terms of the Notes
and Warrants, as the case may be, to be issued on the Closing
Date.  The Common Stock underlying the Additional Notes and the
Additional Warrants shall be Registrable Securities (as defined
in the Registration Rights Agreement) and shall be included in
the Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement.

          m.   Restriction on Short Sales.  The Buyers agree that, so long
               --------------------------
as any of the Debentures remain outstanding, but in no event less
than two (2) years from the date hereof, the Buyers will not
enter into or effect any "short sale" (as such term is defined in
Rule 3b-3 of the 1934 Act) of the Common Stock or hedging

                               17

<PAGE>

transaction which establishes a net short portion with respect to
the Common Stock.

          n.   Key Man Insurance.  The Company shall use its best efforts
               -----------------
to obtain, on or before five (5) business days from the date
hereof, key man life insurance on all of the Company's officers
and division heads.

          o.   Stockholder Approval.  The Company shall file a proxy
               --------------------
statement or information statement with the SEC no later than
June 14, 2004 and use its best efforts to obtain, on or before
July 15, 2004 such approvals of the Company's stockholders as may
be required to issue all of the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion or exercise of, or otherwise with respect to, the
Debentures and the Warrants in accordance with Delaware law and
any applicable rules or regulations of the OTCBB and Nasdaq,
either through a reverse stock split of the Common Stock or an
increase in authorized capital (the "Stockholder Approval").  The
Company shall furnish to each Buyer and its legal counsel
promptly (but in no event less than two (2) business days) before
the same is filed with the SEC, one copy of the proxy statement
or information statement and any amendment thereto, and shall
deliver to each Buyer promptly each letter written by or on
behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC, and
each item of correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC,
in each case relating to such proxy statement or information
statement (other than any portion thereof which contains
information for which the Company has sought confidential
treatment).  The Company will promptly (but in no event more than
three (3) business days) respond to any and all comments received
from the SEC (which comments shall promptly be made available to
each Buyer).  The Company shall comply with the filing and
disclosure requirements of Section 14 under the 1934 Act in
connection with the Stockholder Approval.  The Company represents
and warrants that its Board of Directors has approved the
proposal contemplated by this Section 4(n) and shall indicate
such approval in the proxy statement or information statement
used in connection with the Stockholder Approval.

          p.   Breach of Covenants.  If the Company breaches any of the
               -------------------
covenants set forth in this Section 4, and in addition to any
other remedies available to the Buyers pursuant to this
Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Buyers the Standard
Liquidated Damages Amount, in cash or in shares of Common Stock
at the option of the Company, until such breach is cured.  If the
Company elects to pay the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount in
shares, such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price at
the time of payment.

     5.   TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.  The Company shall issue
          ---------------------------
irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent to issue
certificates, registered in the name of each Buyer or its
nominee, for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares in such
amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the
Company upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants
in accordance with the terms thereof (the "Irrevocable Transfer
Agent Instructions").  Prior to registration of the Conversion
Shares and Warrant Shares under the 1933 Act or the date on which
the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to
Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of Securities
as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, all
such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified in
Section 2(g) of this Agreement.  The Company warrants that no
instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent

                               18

<PAGE>

Instructions referred to in this Section 5, and stop transfer
instructions to give effect to Section 2(f) hereof (in the case
of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, prior to
registration of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares under
the 1933 Act or the date on which the Conversion Shares and
Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any
restriction as to the number of Securities as of a particular
date that can then be immediately sold), will be given by the
Company to its transfer agent and that the Securities shall
otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the
Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement.  Nothing in this Section shall
affect in any way the Buyer's obligations and agreement set forth
in Section 2(g) hereof to comply with all applicable prospectus
delivery requirements, if any, upon re-sale of the Securities.
If a Buyer provides the Company with (i) an opinion of counsel in
form, substance and scope customary for opinions in comparable
transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of
such Securities may be made without registration under the 1933
Act and such sale or transfer is effected or (ii) the Buyer
provides reasonable assurances that the Securities can be sold
pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall permit the transfer, and,
in the case of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, promptly
instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates,
free from restrictive legend, in such name and in such
denominations as specified by such Buyer.  The Company
acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder
will cause irreparable harm to the Buyers, 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 under this Section 5 may be
inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened
breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section, that the
Buyers shall be entitled, in addition to all other available
remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring
immediate transfer, without the necessity of showing economic
loss and without any bond or other security being required.

     6.   CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO SELL.  The
          ----------------------------------------------
obligation of the Company hereunder to issue and sell the Notes
and Warrants to a Buyer at the Closing is subject to the

specific date) and the Company shall have performed, satisfied
and complied in all material respects with the covenants,
agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to be
performed, satisfied or complied with by the Company at or prior
to the Closing Date.  The Buyer shall have received a certificate
or certificates, executed by the chief executive officer of the
Company, dated as of the Closing Date, to the foregoing effect
and as to such other matters as may be reasonably requested by
such Buyer including, but not limited to certificates with
respect to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, By-laws and
Board of Directors' resolutions relating to the transactions
contemplated hereby.

          e.   No litigation, statute, rule, regulation, executive

               ----------------------
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors
and assigns.  Neither the Company nor any Buyer shall assign this
Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the
prior written consent of the other.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, subject to Section 2(f), any Buyer may assign its

as that term is defined under the 1934 Act, without the consent

          h.   Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for
               -------------------------
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may
any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.
i.   Survival.  The representations and warranties of the Company
and the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 3, 4, 5

diligence investigation conducted by or on behalf of the Buyers.
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the
Buyers and all their officers, directors, employees and agents
for loss or damage arising as a result of or related to any
breach or alleged breach by the Company of any of its

Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, including
advancement of expenses as they are incurred.

          j.   Publicity.  The Company and each of the Buyers shall have
               ---------
the right to review a reasonable period of time before issuance
of any press releases, SEC, OTCBB or 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 each of the Buyers, to make any
press release or SEC, OTCBB (or other applicable trading market)
or NASD filings with respect to such transactions as is required
by applicable law and regulations (although each of the Buyers
shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such
press release prior to its release and shall be provided with a
copy thereof and be given an opportunity to comment thereon).

          k.   Further Assurances.  Each party shall do and perform, or
               ------------------

certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may
reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and

<PAGE>

accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby.

          l.   No Strict Construction.  The language used in this Agreement
               ----------------------
will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to
express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction
will be applied against any party.

          m.   Remedies.  The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of
               --------
its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the
Buyers by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction
contemplated hereby.  Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that
the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this
Agreement will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach
or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this
Agreement, that the Buyers shall be entitled, in addition to all
other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to
the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions
restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Agreement
and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof,
without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any
bond or other security being required.
