              2.3 PUTS OF COMMON SHARES TO THE INVESTOR.
                  --------------------------------------

                 2.3.1 PROCEDURE TO EXERCISE A PUT. Subject to the Individual
Put Limit, the Maximum Offering Amount and the Cap Amount (if applicable), and
the other conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement, at any time
beginning on the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective
by the SEC (the "Effective Date"), the Company may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, elect to exercise one or more Puts according to the following
procedure, provided that each subsequent Put Date after the first Put Date shall
be no sooner than five (5) Business Days following the preceding Pricing Period
End Date:

                        (a) DELIVERY OF ADVANCE PUT NOTICE. At least ten (10)
Business Days but not more than twenty (20) Business Days prior to any intended
Put Date (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Investor), the Company shall
deliver advance written notice (the "Advance Put Notice," the form of which is
attached hereto as EXHIBIT E, the date of such Advance Put Notice being the
"Advance Put Notice Date") to Investor stating the Put Date for which the
Company shall, subject to the limitations and restrictions contained herein,
exercise a Put and stating the number of shares of Common Stock (subject to the
Individual Put Limit and the Maximum Put Dollar Amount) which the Company
intends to sell to the Investor for the Put (the "Intended Put Share Amount").

         The Company may, at its option, also designate in any Advance Put
Notice (i) a maximum dollar amount of Common Stock, not to exceed $2,000,000,
which it shall sell to Investor during the Put (the "Company Designated Maximum
Put Dollar Amount") and/or (ii) a minimum purchase price per Put Share at which
the Investor may purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Put Notice (a
"Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price"). The Company Designated Minimum
Put Share Price, if applicable, shall be no greater than the lesser of (i) 80%
of the Closing Bid Price of the Company's common stock on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Advance Put Notice Date, or (ii) the Closing Bid Price
of the Company's common stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Advance Put Notice Date minus $0.125. The Company may decrease (but not
increase) the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price for a Put at any time
by giving the Investor written notice of such decrease not later than 12:00
Noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Business
Day that such decrease is to take effect. A decrease in the Company Designated
Minimum Put Share Price shall have no retroactive effect on the determination of
Trigger Prices and Excluded Days for days preceding the Business Day that such
decrease takes effect, provided that the Put Share Price for all shares in a Put
shall be calculated using the lowest Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price,
as decreased.

         Notwithstanding the above, if, at the time of delivery of an Advance
Put Notice, more than two (2) Calendar Months have passed since the date of the
previous Put Closing, such Advance Put Notice shall provide at least twenty (20)
Business Days notice of the intended Put Date, unless waived in writing by the
Investor. In order to effect delivery of the Advance Put Notice, the Company
shall (i) send the Advance Put Notice by facsimile on such date so that such
notice is received by the Investor by 6:00 p.m., New York, NY time, and (ii)
surrender such notice on such date to a courier for overnight delivery to the
Investor (or two (2) day delivery in the case of an Investor residing outside of
the U.S.). Upon receipt by the Investor of a facsimile copy of the Advance Put
Notice, the Investor shall, within two (2) Business Days, send, via facsimile, a
confirmation of receipt (the "Advance Put Notice Confirmation," the form of
which is attached hereto as EXHIBIT F) of the Advance Put Notice to the Company
specifying that the Advance Put Notice has been received and affirming the
intended Put Date and the Intended Put Share Amount.

                        (b) PUT SHARE AMOUNT. The "Put Share Amount" is the
number of shares of Common Stock that the Investor shall be obligated to
purchase in a given Put, and shall equal the lesser of (i) the Intended Put
Share Amount, and (ii) the Individual Put Limit. The "Individual Put Limit"
shall equal the lesser of (a) 1,500,000 shares, (b) 15% of the sum of the
aggregate daily reported Trading Volumes in the outstanding Common Stock on the
Company's Principal Market, excluding any block trades of 20,000 or more shares
of Common Stock ("Block Trades"), for all Evaluation Days (as defined below) in
the Pricing Period, (c) the number of Put Shares which, when multiplied by their
respective Put Share Prices, equals the Maximum Put Dollar Amount, and (d) the
9.9% Limitation, but in no event shall the Individual Put Limit exceed 15% of
the sum of the aggregate daily reported Trading Volumes in the outstanding
Common Stock on the Company's Principal Market, excluding any block trades of
20,000 or more shares of Common Stock, for the twenty (20) Business Days
immediately preceding the Advance Put Notice Date (this limitation, together
with the limitation in (b) immediately above are collectively referred to herein
as the "Volume Limitations"). Company agrees not to trade Common Stock or
arrange for Common Stock to be traded for the purpose of artificially increasing
the Volume Limitations. Notwithstanding the above, Block Trades shall not be
excluded from the above calculations to the extent that the aggregate number of
shares traded in all such Block Trades on a given trading day constitute less
than ten percent (10%) of the total trading volume of all shares traded on that
trading day.

         For purposes of this Agreement:

              "Trigger Price" for any Pricing Period shall mean the greater of
(i) the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price, plus $0.075, or (ii) the
Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price divided by
 .92.

              An "Excluded Day" shall mean each Business Day during a Pricing
Period where the lowest intra-day trading price of the Common Stock is less than
the Trigger Price.

              An "Evaluation Day" shall mean each Business Day during a Pricing
Period that is not an Excluded Day.

                        (c) PUT SHARE PRICE. The purchase price for the Put
Shares (the "Put Share Price") shall equal the lesser of (i) the Market Price
for such Put, minus $0.075, or (ii) 92% of the Market Price for such Put, but
shall in no event be less than the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price
for such Put, if applicable.

                        (d) DELIVERY OF PUT NOTICE. After delivery of an Advance
Put Notice, on the Put Date specified in the Advance Put Notice the Company
shall deliver written notice (the "Put Notice," the form of which is attached
hereto as EXHIBIT G) to Investor stating (i) the Put Date, (ii) the Intended Put
Share Amount as specified in the Advance Put Notice (such exercise a "Put"),
(iii) the Company Designated Maximum Put Dollar Amount (if applicable), and (iv)
the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price (if applicable). In order to
effect delivery of the Put Notice, the Company shall (i) send the Put Notice by
facsimile on the Put Date so that such notice is received by the Investor by
6:00 p.m., New York, NY time, and (ii) surrender such notice on the Put Date to
a courier for overnight delivery to the Investor (or two (2) day delivery in the
case of an Investor residing outside of the U.S.). Upon receipt by the Investor
of a facsimile copy of the Put Notice, the Investor shall, within two (2)
Business Days, send, via facsimile, a confirmation of receipt (the "Put Notice
Confirmation," the form of which is attached hereto as EXHIBIT H) of the Put
Notice to Company specifying that the Put Notice has been received and affirming
the Put Date and the Intended Put Share Amount.

<PAGE>

                        (e) DELIVERY OF REQUIRED PUT DOCUMENTS. On or before the
Put Date for such Put, the Company shall deliver the Required Put Documents (as
defined in Section 2.3.5 below) to the Investor (or to an agent of Investor, if
Investor so directs). Unless otherwise specified by the Investor, the delivery
of the Put Shares of Common Stock shall be in the form of physical certificates.
If specifically requested by the Investor, the Put Shares shall be transmitted
electronically pursuant to such electronic delivery system as the Investor shall
request. If the Company has not delivered all of the Required Put Documents to
the Investor on or before the Put Date, the Put shall be automatically
cancelled, unless the Investor agrees to delay the Put Date by up to three (3)
Business Days, in which case the Pricing Period begins on the Business Day
following such new Put Date. If the Company has not delivered all of the
Required Put Documents to the Investor on or before the Put Date (or new Put
Date, if applicable), and the Investor has not agreed in writing to delay the
Put Date, the Put is automatically canceled (an "Impermissible Put
Cancellation") and, unless the Put was otherwise canceled in accordance with the
terms of Section 2.3.11, the Company shall pay the Investor $5,000 for its
reasonable due diligence expenses incurred in preparation for the canceled Put
and the Company may deliver an Advance Put Notice for the subsequent Put no
sooner than ten (10) Business Days after the date that such Put was canceled,
unless otherwise agreed by the Investor.

                        (f) LIMITATION ON INVESTOR'S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE
SHARES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event
shall the Investor be required to purchase, and an Intended Put Share Amount may
not include, an amount of Put Shares, which when added to the number of Put
Shares acquired by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement during the 61 days
preceding the Put Date with respect to which this determination of the permitted
Intended Put Share Amount is being made, would exceed 9.9% of the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis, to the extent that
inclusion of unissued shares is mandated by Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act)
on the Put Date for such Pricing Period, as determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (the "Section 13(d) Outstanding Share
Amount"). Each Put Notice shall include a representation of the Company as to
the Section 13(d) Outstanding Share Amount on the related Put Date. In the event
that the Section 13(d) Outstanding Share Amount is different on any date during
a Pricing Period than on the Put Date associated with such Pricing Period, then
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date during such
Pricing Period shall govern for purposes of determining whether the Investor,
when aggregating all purchases of Shares made pursuant to this Agreement in the
61 calendar days preceding such date, would have acquired more than 9.9% of the
Section 13(d) Outstanding Share Amount. The limitation set forth in this Section
2.3.1(f) is referred to as the "9.9% Limitation."

              2.3.2 TERMINATION OF RIGHT TO PUT. The Company's right to require
the Investor to purchase any subsequent Put Shares shall terminate permanently
(each, an "Automatic Termination") upon the occurrence of any of the following:

                        (a) the Company shall not exercise a Put or any Put
thereafter if, at any time, either the Company or any director or executive
officer of the Company has engaged in a transaction or conduct related to the
Company that has resulted in (i) a Securities and Exchange Commission
enforcement action, or (ii) a civil judgment or criminal conviction for fraud or
misrepresentation, or for any other offense that, if prosecuted criminally,
would constitute a felony under applicable law;

                        (b) the Company shall not exercise a Put or any Put
thereafter, on any date after a cumulative time period or series of time
periods, consisting only of Ineffective Periods and Delisting Events, that lasts
for an aggregate of four (4) months;

                        (c) the Company shall not exercise a Put or any Put
thereafter if at any time the Company has filed for and/or is subject to any
bankruptcy, insolvency,

                                     - 12 -

reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings for relief under
any bankruptcy law or any law for the relief of debtors instituted by or against
the Company or any subsidiary of the Company;

                        (d) the Company shall not exercise a Put after the
sooner of (i) the date that is three (3) years after the Effective Date, or (ii)
the Put Closing Date on which the aggregate of the Put Dollar Amounts for all
Puts equal the Maximum Offering Amount; and

                        (e) the Company shall not exercise a Put after the
Company has breached any covenant in Section 2.6, Section 6, or Section 9
hereof, provided that if such breach is curable, no Automatic Termination shall
occur if the Company has cured such breach within thirty (30) days of the first
date the Company becomes aware of such breach, provided that the Company shall
not be entitled to initiate any additional Puts after such breach until the
breach is cured.

                        (f) if no Registration Statement has been declared
effective by the date that is one (1) year after the date of this Agreement, the
Automatic Termination shall occur on the date that is one (1) year after the
date of this Agreement.

              2.3.3 PUT LIMITATIONS. The Company's right to exercise a Put shall
be limited as follows:

                        (a) notwithstanding the amount of any Put, the Investor
shall not be obligated to purchase any additional Put Shares once the aggregate
Put Dollar Amount paid by Investor equals the Maximum Offering Amount;

                        (b) the Investor shall not be obligated to acquire and
pay for the Put Shares with respect to any Put for which the Company has
announced a subdivision or combination, including a reverse split, of its Common
Stock or has subdivided or combined its Common Stock during the Extended Put
Period;

                        (c) the Investor shall not be obligated to acquire and

              2.3.4 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY TO DELIVER
AN ADVANCE PUT NOTICE OR A PUT NOTICE AND THE OBLIGATION OF THE INVESTOR TO
PURCHASE PUT SHARES. The right of the Company to deliver an Advance Put Notice
or a Put Notice and the obligation of the Investor hereunder to acquire and pay

                  shall have been declared effective by the SEC for the resale
                  of all Registrable Securities and the Company shall have
                  satisfied and shall be in compliance with any and all

              2.3.6 ACCOUNTANT'S LETTER AND REGISTRATION OPINION.

                        (a) The Company shall have caused to be delivered to the
Investor, (i) whenever required by Section 2.3.6(b) or by Section 2.5.3, and
(ii) on the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to each Put Date (the
"Registration Opinion Deadline"), an opinion of the Company's independent
counsel, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT R (the "Registration Opinion"),
addressed to the Investor stating, inter alia, that no facts ("Material Facts")
have come to such counsel's attention that have caused it to believe that the
Registration Statement is subject to an Ineffective Period or to believe that
the Registration Statement, any Supplemental Registration Statement (as each may
be amended, if applicable), and any related prospectuses, contain an untrue
statement of material fact or omits a material fact required to make the
statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. If a Registration Opinion cannot be delivered by the
Company's independent counsel to the Investor on the Registration Opinion
Deadline due to the existence of Material Facts or an Ineffective Period, the
Company shall promptly notify the Investor and as promptly as possible amend
each of the Registration Statement and any Supplemental Registration Statements,
as applicable, and any related prospectus or cause such Ineffective Period to
terminate, as the case may be, and deliver such Registration Opinion and updated
prospectus as soon as possible thereafter. If at any time after a Put Notice
shall have been delivered to Investor but before the related Pricing Period End
Date, the Company acquires knowledge of such Material Facts or any Ineffective
Period occurs, the Company shall promptly notify the Investor and shall deliver
a Put Cancellation Notice to the Investor pursuant to Section 2.3.11 by
facsimile and overnight courier by the end of that Business Day.

                        (b) (i) the Company shall engage its independent
auditors to perform the procedures in accordance with the provisions of
Statement on Auditing Standards

                                     - 15 -

<PAGE>

No. 71, as amended, as agreed to by the parties hereto, and reports thereon (the
"Bring Down Cold Comfort Letters") as shall have been reasonably requested by
the Investor with respect to certain financial information contained in the
Registration Statement and shall have delivered to the Investor such a report
addressed to the Investor, on the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to
each Put Date.

                            (ii) in the event that the Investor shall have
requested delivery of an Agreed Upon Procedures Report pursuant to Section
2.5.3, the Company shall engage its independent auditors to perform certain
agreed upon procedures and report thereon as shall have been reasonably
requested by the Investor with respect to certain financial information of the
Company and the Company shall deliver to the Investor a copy of such report
addressed to the Investor. In the event that the report required by this Section
2.3.6(b) cannot be delivered by the Company's independent auditors, the Company
shall, if necessary, promptly revise the Registration Statement and the Company
shall not deliver a Put Notice until such report is delivered.

              2.3.7 INVESTOR'S OBLIGATION AND RIGHT TO PURCHASE SHARES. Subject
to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, following the Investor's receipt
of a validly delivered Put Notice, the Investor shall be required to purchase
(each a "Purchase") from the Company a number of Put Shares equal to the Put
Share Amount, in the manner described below.

              2.3.8 MECHANICS OF PUT CLOSING. Each of the Company and the
Investor shall deliver all documents, instruments and writings required to be
delivered by either of them pursuant to this Agreement at or prior to each
Closing. Subject to such delivery and the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Sections 2.3.4 and 2.3.5, the closing of the purchase by the Investor
of Shares shall occur by 5:00 PM, New York City Time, on the date which is five
(5) Business Days following the applicable Pricing Period End Date (the "Payment
Due Date") at the offices of Investor. On each or before each Payment Due Date,
the Investor shall deliver to the Company, in the manner specified in Section 8
below, the Put Dollar Amount to be paid for such Put Shares, determined as
aforesaid. The closing (each a "Put Closing") for each Put shall occur on the
date that both (i) the Company has delivered to the Investor all Required Put
Documents, and (ii) the Investor has delivered to the Company such Put Dollar
Amount and any Late Payment Amount, if applicable (each a "Put Closing Date").

         If the Investor does not deliver to the Company the Put Dollar Amount
for such Put Closing on or before the Payment Due Date, then the Investor shall
pay to the Company, in addition to the Put Dollar Amount, an amount (the "Late
Payment Amount") at a rate of X% per month, accruing daily, multiplied by such
Put Dollar Amount, where "X" equals one percent (1%) for the first month
following the date in question, and increases by an additional one percent (1%)
for each month that passes after the date in question, up to a maximum of five
percent (5%) per month; provided, however, that in no event shall the amount of
interest that shall become due and payable hereunder exceed the maximum amount
permissible under applicable law.

              2.3.9 LIMITATION ON SHORT SALES. The Investor and its affiliates
shall not engage in short sales of the Company's Common Stock; provided,
however, that the Investor may enter into any long sale, short exempt sale or
any short sale with respect to Put Shares after it receives a Put Notice with
respect to such Put Shares so long as such sales or arrangements do not involve
more than the number of such Put Shares specified in the Put Notice, provided
that the Investor shall not have an open short position with respect to any Put
Shares for a given Put after the Put Closing Date for such Put.

              2.3.10 CAP AMOUNT. If the Company becomes listed on the Nasdaq

                                     - 16 -

<PAGE>

Stockholder 20% Approval as set forth in Section 6.11 or unless otherwise
permitted by Nasdaq, in no event shall the Aggregate Issued Shares
exceed the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (the "Cap Amount") that the
Company can, without stockholder approval, so issue pursuant to Nasdaq Rule
4460(i)(1)(d)(ii) (or any other applicable Nasdaq Rules or any successor rule)
(the "Nasdaq 20% Rule").

              2.3.11 PUT CANCELLATION.

                        (a) MECHANICS OF PUT CANCELLATION. If at any time during
a Pricing Period the Company discovers the existence of Material Facts or any
Ineffective Period or Delisting Event occurs, the Company shall cancel the Put
(a "Put Cancellation"), by delivering written notice to the Investor (the "Put
Cancellation Notice"), attached as EXHIBIT Q, by facsimile and overnight
courier. The "Put Cancellation Date" shall be the date that the Put Cancellation
Notice is first received by the Investor, if such notice is received by the
Investor by 6:00 p.m., New York, NY time, and shall be the following date, if
such notice is received by the Investor after 6:00 p.m., New York, NY time.

                        (b) EFFECT OF PUT CANCELLATION. Anytime a Put
Cancellation Notice is delivered to Investor after the Put Date, the Put, shall
remain effective with respect to a number of Put Shares (the "Truncated Put
Share Amount") equal to the Individual Put Limit for the Truncated Pricing
Period.

                        (c) PUT CANCELLATION NOTICE CONFIRMATION. Upon receipt
by the Investor of a facsimile copy of the Put Cancellation Notice, the Investor
shall promptly send, via facsimile, a confirmation of receipt (the "Put
Cancellation Notice Confirmation," a form of which is attached as EXHIBIT S) of
the Put Cancellation Notice to the Company specifying that the Put Cancellation
Notice has been received and affirming the Put Cancellation Date.

                        (d) TRUNCATED PRICING PERIOD. If a Put Cancellation
Notice has been delivered to the Investor after the Put Date, the Pricing Period
for such Put shall end at on the close of trading on the last full trading day
on the Principal Market that ends prior to the moment of initial delivery of the
Put Cancellation Notice to the Investor (a "Truncated Pricing Period").

              2.3.12 INVESTMENT AGREEMENT CANCELLATION. The Company may
terminate (a "Company Termination") its right to initiate future Puts by
providing written notice ("Termination Notice") to the Investor, by facsimile
and overnight courier, at any time other than during an Extended Put Period,
provided that such termination shall have no effect on the parties' other rights
and obligations under this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the
Warrants. Notwithstanding the above, any cancellation occurring during an
Extended Put Period is governed by Section 2.3.11.

              2.3.13 RETURN OF EXCESS COMMON SHARES. In the event that the
number of Shares purchased by the Investor pursuant to its obligations hereunder
is less than the Intended Put Share Amount, the Investor shall promptly return
to the Company any shares of Common Stock in the Investor's possession that are
not being purchased by the Investor.

         2.4 WARRANTS.

              2.4.1 COMMITMENT WARRANTS. In partial consideration hereof,
following the execution of the Letter of Agreement dated on or about September
7, 2000 between the Company and the Investor, the Company issued and delivered
to Investor or its designated assignees, warrants (the "Commitment Warrants") in
the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT U, or such other form as agreed upon by the
parties, to purchase 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock.

                                     - 17 -

<PAGE>

Each Commitment Warrant shall be immediately exercisable in accordance with its
terms, and shall have a term beginning on the date of issuance and ending on
date that is five (5) years thereafter. The Warrant Shares shall be registered
for resale pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The Investment
Commitment Opinion of Counsel shall cover the issuance of the Commitment Warrant
and the issuance of the common stock upon exercise of the Commitment Warrant.

         Notwithstanding any Termination or Automatic Termination of this
Agreement, regardless of whether or not the Registration Statement is or is not
filed, and regardless of whether or not the Registration Statement is approved
or denied by the SEC, the Investor shall retain full ownership of the Commitment
Warrant as partial consideration for its commitment hereunder.

              2.4.2 PURCHASE WARRANTS. Within five (5) Business Days of the end
of each Pricing Period, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Investor a
warrant ("Purchase Warrant"), in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT D, or such
other form as agreed upon by the parties, to purchase a number of shares of
Common Stock equal to 10% of the Put Share Amount for that Put. Each Purchase
Warrant shall be exerciseable at a price (the "Purchase Warrant Exercise Price")
which shall initially equal 110% of the Market Price for the applicable Put, and
shall have semi-annual reset provisions. Each Purchase Warrant shall be
immediately exercisable at the Purchase Warrant Exercise Price, and shall have a
term beginning on the date of issuance and ending on the date that is five (5)
years thereafter. The Warrant Shares shall be registered for resale pursuant to
the Registration Rights Agreement.

         2.5 DUE DILIGENCE REVIEW. The Company shall make available for
inspection and review by the Investor (the "Due Diligence Review"), advisors to
and representatives of the Investor (who may or may not be affiliated with the
Investor and who are reasonably acceptable to the Company), any underwriter
participating in any disposition of Common Stock on behalf of the Investor
pursuant to the Registration Statement, any Supplemental Registration Statement,
or amendments or supplements thereto or any blue sky, NASD or other filing, all
financial and other records, all filings with the SEC, and all other corporate
documents and properties of the Company as may be reasonably necessary for the
purpose of such review, and cause the Company's officers, directors and
employees to supply all such information reasonably requested by the Investor or
any such representative, advisor or underwriter in connection with such
Registration Statement (including, without limitation, in response to all
questions and other inquiries reasonably made or submitted by any of them),
prior to and from time to time after the filing and effectiveness of the
Registration Statement for the sole purpose of enabling the Investor and such
representatives, advisors and underwriters and their respective accountants and
attorneys to conduct initial and ongoing due diligence with respect to the
Company and the accuracy of the Registration Statement.

              2.5.1 TREATMENT OF NONPUBLIC INFORMATION. The Company shall not
disclose nonpublic information to the Investor or to its advisors or
representatives unless prior to disclosure of such information the Company
identifies such information as being nonpublic information and provides the
Investor and such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to accept or
refuse to accept such nonpublic information for review. The Company may, as a
condition to disclosing any nonpublic information hereunder, require the
Investor and its advisors and representatives to enter into a confidentiality
agreement (including an agreement with such advisors and representatives
prohibiting them from trading in Common Stock during such period of time as they
are in possession of nonpublic information) in form reasonably satisfactory to
the Company and the Investor.

        Nothing herein shall require the Company to disclose nonpublic
information to the Investor or its advisors or representatives, and the Company
represents that it does not disseminate

                                     - 18 -

<PAGE>

nonpublic information to any investors who purchase stock in the Company in a
public offering, to money managers or to securities analysts, provided, however,
that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company will, as
hereinabove provided, immediately notify the advisors and representatives of the
Investor and, if any, underwriters, of any event or the existence of any
circumstance (without any obligation to disclose the specific event or
circumstance) of which it becomes aware, constituting nonpublic information
(whether or not requested of the Company specifically or generally during the
course of due diligence by and such persons or entities), which, if not
disclosed in the Prospectus included in the Registration Statement, would cause
such Prospectus to include a material misstatement or to omit a material fact
required to be stated therein in order to make the statements therein, in light
of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. Nothing contained
in this Section 2.5 shall be construed to mean that such persons or entities
other than the Investor (without the written consent of the Investor prior to
disclosure of such information) may not obtain nonpublic information in the
course of conducting due diligence in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall the Investor's advisors or
representatives disclose to the Investor the nature of the specific event or
circumstances constituting any nonpublic information discovered by such advisors
or representatives in the course of their due diligence without the written
consent of the Investor prior to disclosure of such information.

              2.5.2 DISCLOSURE OF MISSTATEMENTS AND OMISSIONS. The Investor's
advisors or representatives shall make complete disclosure to the Investor's
counsel of all events or circumstances constituting nonpublic information
discovered by such advisors or representatives in the course of their due
diligence upon which such advisors or representatives form the opinion that the
Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits
a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or necessary
to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances in
which they were made, not misleading. Upon receipt of such disclosure, the
Investor's counsel shall consult with the Company's independent counsel in order
to address the concern raised as to the existence of a material misstatement or
omission and to discuss appropriate disclosure with respect thereto; provided,
however, that such consultation shall not constitute the advice of the Company's
independent counsel to the Investor as to the accuracy of the Registration
Statement and related Prospectus.

              2.5.3 PROCEDURE IF MATERIAL FACTS ARE REASONABLY BELIEVED TO BE
UNTRUE OR ARE OMITTED. In the event after such consultation the Investor or the
Investor's counsel reasonably believes that the Registration Statement contains
an untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact required to be
stated in the Registration Statement or necessary to make the statements
contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not
misleading,

                        (a) the Company shall file with the SEC an amendment to
the Registration Statement responsive to such alleged untrue statement or
omission and provide the Investor, as promptly as practicable, with copies of
the Registration Statement and related Prospectus, as so amended, or

                        (b) if the Company disputes the existence of any such
material misstatement or omission, (i) the Company's independent counsel shall
provide the Investor's counsel with a Registration Opinion and (ii) in the event
the dispute relates to the adequacy of financial disclosure and the Investor
shall reasonably request, the Company's independent auditors shall provide to
the Company a letter ("Agreed Upon Procedures Report") outlining the performance
of such "agreed upon procedures" as shall be reasonably requested by the
Investor and the Company shall provide the Investor with a copy of such letter.

         2.6 COMMITMENT PAYMENTS.
             -------------------

              On the last Business Day of each one (1) year period following the
Effective Date (each such period a "Commitment Evaluation Period"), if the
Company has not Put at least $2,000,000 in aggregate Put Dollar Amount during
that Commitment Evaluation Period, the Company, in consideration of Investor's
commitment costs, including, but not limited to, due diligence expenses, shall
pay to the Investor an amount (the "Non-Usage Fee") equal to the difference of
(i) $200,000, minus (ii) 10% of the aggregate Put Dollar Amount of the Put
Shares put to Investor during that Commitment Evaluation Period. In the event
that the Company delivers a Termination Notice to the Investor or an Automatic
Termination occurs, the Company shall pay to the Investor (the "Termination
Fee") the greater of (i) the Non-Usage Fee for the applicable Commitment
Evaluation Period, or (ii) the difference of (x) $200,000, minus (y) 10% of the
aggregate Put Dollar Amount of the Put Shares put to Investor during all Puts to
date, and the Company shall not be required to pay the Non-Usage Fee thereafter.
Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be required to pay a Non-Usage
Fee for any Commitment Evaluation Period during which the Company has delivered
a maximum number of Put Notices to the Investor allowed by the Investment
Agreement, and each such Put is for the maximum number of shares allowed by the
Volume Limitations (as defined above).

           Each Non-Usage Fee or Termination Fee is payable, in cash, within
five (5) business days of the date it accrued. The Company shall not be required
to deliver any payments to Investor under this subsection until Investor has
paid all Put Dollar Amounts that are then due.

Agreement, that Investor has the ability to bear the economic risk of Investor's
investment pursuant to this Agreement and that Investor is an "Accredited
Investor" by virtue of the fact that Investor meets the investor qualification
standards set forth in Section 3.1 above. Investor has not been organized for
the purpose of investing in securities of the Company, although such investment
is consistent with Investor's purposes.

              3.3 EXEMPT OFFERING UNDER REGULATION D.

                   3.3.1 NO GENERAL SOLICITATION. The Investment Agreement was

applicable regulations such securities may not be transferred or resold without
registration under the Act or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. In this
connection, Investor represents that Investor is

representations set forth above, Investor agrees that until the Securities are
sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or an exemption from
registration, they will remain in the name of Investor and will not be
transferred to or assigned to any broker, dealer or depositary. Investor further
agrees not to sell, transfer, assign, or pledge the Securities (except for any
bona fide pledge arrangement to the extent that such pledge does not require
registration under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is
available and provided further that if such pledge is realized upon, any
transfer to the pledgee shall comply with the requirements set forth herein), or
to otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until:

Company with the necessary representations for counsel to the Company to issue
an opinion with respect to such transaction.

              The Investor is entering into this Agreement for its own account
and the Investor has no present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) at
any time to sell the Common Stock to or through any person or entity; provided,

         4. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Investor is aware that:

              4.1 RISKS OF INVESTMENT. Investor recognizes that an investment in
the Company involves substantial risks, including the potential loss of
Investor's entire investment herein. Investor recognizes that the Disclosure
Documents, this Agreement and the exhibits hereto do not purport to contain all
the information, which would be contained in a registration statement under the
Act;

              4.2 NO GOVERNMENT APPROVAL. No federal or state agency has passed
upon the Securities, recommended or endorsed the Offering, or made any finding
or determination as to the fairness of this transaction;

              4.3 NO REGISTRATION, RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. As of the date of
this Agreement, the Securities and any component thereof have not been
registered under the Act or any applicable state securities laws by reason of
exemptions from the registration requirements of the Act and such laws, and may
not be sold, pledged (except for any limited pledge in connection with a margin
account of Investor to the extent that such pledge does not require registration
under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available and
provided further that if such pledge is realized upon, any transfer to the
pledgee shall comply with the requirements set forth herein), assigned or
otherwise disposed of in the absence of an effective registration of the
Securities and any component thereof under the Act or unless an exemption from
such registration is available;

              4.4 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. Investor may not attempt to sell,
transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the
Securities or any component thereof in the absence of either an effective
registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of the
Act and applicable state securities laws;

              4.5 NO ASSURANCES OF REGISTRATION. There can be no assurance that
any registration statement will become effective at the scheduled time, or ever,
or remain effective when required, and Investor acknowledges that it may be
required to bear the economic risk of Investor's investment for an indefinite
period of time;

              4.6 EXEMPT TRANSACTION. Investor understands that the Securities
are being offered and sold in reliance on specific exemptions from the
registration requirements of federal and state law and that the representations,
warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings set forth herein are
being relied upon by the Company in determining the applicability of such
exemptions and the suitability of Investor to acquire such Securities.

              4.7 LEGENDS. The certificates representing the Put Shares shall
not bear a legend restricting the sale or transfer thereof ("Restrictive
Legend"). The certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall not bear a
Restrictive Legend unless they are issued at a time when the Registration

evidencing any Warrant Shares issued at a time when the Registration Statement
is not effective for resale, subject to legend removal under the terms of
Section 6.8 below, shall bear the following legend (the "Legend"):

           "The securities represented hereby have not been registered under the
           Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or applicable state securities
           laws, nor the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. They may not
           be sold or transferred in the absence of an effective registration
           statement under those securities laws or pursuant to an exemption
           therefrom."

              5.1 ORGANIZATION, GOOD STANDING, AND QUALIFICATION. The Company is
a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware, USA and has all requisite corporate power and
authority to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be
conducted. The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a
material adverse effect on the business or properties of the Company and its
subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Company is not the subject of any pending,
threatened or, to its knowledge, contemplated investigation or administrative or
legal proceeding (a "Proceeding") by the Internal Revenue Service, the taxing
authorities of any state or local jurisdiction, or the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., the Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc. or any state securities commission, or any other governmental
entity, which have not been disclosed in the Disclosure Documents. None of the
disclosed Proceedings, if any, will have a material adverse effect upon the
Company or the market for the Common Stock. The Company has the following
subsidiaries:

              5.2 CORPORATE CONDITION. The Company's condition is, in all
material respects, as described in the Disclosure Documents (as further set
forth in any subsequently filed Disclosure Documents, if applicable), except for
changes in the ordinary course of business and normal year-end adjustments that
are not, in the aggregate, materially adverse to the Company. Except for
continuing losses, there have been no material adverse changes to the Company's
business or financial condition since the dates of such Disclosure Documents.
The financial statements as contained in the 10-K and 10-Q have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied
(except as otherwise permitted by Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act, or
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, as applicable), subject, in the case
of unaudited interim financial statements, to customary year end adjustments and
the absence of certain footnotes, and fairly present the financial condition of
the Company as of the dates of the balance sheets included therein and the
consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended. Without limiting the foregoing, there are no material liabilities,
contingent or actual, that are not disclosed in the Disclosure Documents (other
than liabilities incurred by the Company in the ordinary course of its business,
consistent with its past practice, after the period covered by the Disclosure
Documents). The Company has paid all material taxes that are due, except for
taxes that it reasonably disputes. There is no material claim, litigation, or
administrative proceeding pending or, to the best of the Company's knowledge,

or state judgment, writ, decree, order, statute, rule or governmental regulation
applicable to the Company, which would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, or on the performance of its obligations under this
Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement. The execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the other agreements entered into in
conjunction with the Offering and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby will not (a) result in any such violation or be
in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving

an event which results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon
any assets of the Company, which would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business or prospects, or on the performance of its obligations under
this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, or (b) violate the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws or (c) violate any statute, rule or
governmental regulation applicable to the Company which violation would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business or prospects.

Offering and thereafter, to make such reports available, for the full term of
this Agreement, including any extensions thereof, and for as long as Investor
holds the Securities. The Common Stock is duly listed or approved for quotation

that the Common Stock will be delisted by the O.T.C. Bulletin Board for the
foreseeable future. The Company has filed all reports required under the

nonpublic information concerning the Company.

intellectual property necessary to the conduct of its business. EXHIBIT M lists
all patents, trademarks, trademark registrations, trade names and copyrights of

affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or
indirectly made any offers or sales of any of the Company's securities or
solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would prevent
the parties hereto from consummating the transactions contemplated hereby

Offering under the Rules of the SEC. The Company has not engaged in any form of
general solicitation or advertising in connection with the offering of the
Common Stock or the Warrants.

              5.16 FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES. To the best of the Company's
knowledge, neither the Company, nor any of its subsidiaries, nor any director,

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 liability with respect to any of the
foregoing matters. No Key Employee has, to the best knowledge of the Company and
its subsidiaries, any intention to terminate his employment with, or services
to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

              5.18 REPRESENTATIONS CORRECT. The foregoing representations,
warranties and agreements are true, correct and complete in all material
respects, and shall survive any Put Closing and the issuance of the shares of
Common Stock thereby.

              5.19 TAX STATUS. The Company has made or filed all federal and
state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any

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 as set aside on its books provision 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

Market or the Nasdaq National Market, or at a special meeting to be held as soon
as practicable thereafter, use its best efforts to obtain approval of its

Common Stock which would be issuable under this Agreement and eliminate any
prohibitions under applicable law or the rules or regulations of any stock
exchange, interdealer quotation system or other self-regulatory organization
with jurisdiction over the Company or any of its securities with respect to the
Company's ability to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Cap Amount
(such approvals being the "20% Approval") and (ii) the increase in the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Share Authorization
Increase Approval") such that at least 35,000,000 shares can be reserved for

its best efforts to cause all officers and directors of the Company to promptly
enter into irrevocable agreements to vote all of their shares in favor of
eliminating such prohibitions. As soon as practicable after the 20% Approval and
the Share Authorization Increase Approval, the Company agrees to use its best
efforts to reserve 35,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under this
Agreement.

              5.26 ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF LIMITATIONS ON PUT AMOUNTS. The Company

              6.5 RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL.

                   6.5.1 CAPITAL RAISING LIMITATIONS. During the period from the
date of this Agreement until the date that is sixty (60) days after the earlier
of (a) the Termination Date, or (ii) the date, if any, that the Company delivers
a Termination Notice to the Investor, the Company shall not issue or sell, or
agree to issue or sell Equity Securities (as defined below), for cash in private
capital raising transactions without obtaining the prior written approval of the
Investor of the Offering (the limitations referred to in this subsection 6.5.1
are collectively referred to as the "Capital Raising Limitations"). For purposes
hereof, the following shall be collectively referred to herein as, the "Equity
Securities": (i) Common Stock or any other equity securities, (ii) any debt or
equity securities which are convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for,
or carry the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock or other equity
securities, or (iii) any securities of the Company pursuant to an equity line
structure or format similar in nature to this Offering.

                   6.5.2 INVESTOR'S RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. For any private
capital raising transactions of Equity Securities which close after the date
hereof and on or prior to the date that is sixty (60) days after earlier of (a)
the Termination Date, or (ii) the date, if any, that the Company delivers a
Termination Notice to the Investor, not including any warrants issued in

Investor, at least ten (10) days prior to the closing of such transaction,
written notice describing the proposed transaction, including the terms and
conditions thereof, and providing the Investor an option (the "Right of First
Refusal") during the ten (10) day period following delivery of such notice to
purchase the securities being offered in such transaction on the same terms as
contemplated by such transaction. The Investor acknowledges that Top Eagle
Holdings, Ltd. has a right of first

                                     - 29 -

<PAGE>

offer with respect to any private capital transactions in Equity Securities,
provided that Top Eagle Holdings has waived its right of first offer with
respect to this Offering.

                   6.5.3 EXCEPTIONS TO CAPITAL RAISING LIMITATIONS AND RIGHTS OF
FIRST REFUSAL. Notwithstanding the above, neither the Capital Raising
Limitations nor the Rights of First Refusal shall apply to any transaction
involving issuances of securities in connection with a merger, consolidation,
acquisition or sale 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 or exercise of options by employees, or directors, or a
primary underwritten offering of the Company's Common Stock, or with respect to
the issuance of securities or options to consultants of the Company, not to
exceed the Consultant Limitation (as defined below), but the Capital Raising
Limitations and the Rights of First Refusal shall each apply to the issuance of
securities or options to consultants of the Company in excess of the Consultant
Limitation. The "Consultant Limitation" shall mean up to 250,000 shares of
Common Stock or options to purchase Common Stock of the Company to any single
consultant in any twelve (12) month period and up to 1,000,000 shares of Common
Stock or options to purchase Common Stock of the Company to all consultants of
the Company, in the aggregate, in any twelve (12) month period. The Capital
Raising Limitations and Rights of First Refusal also shall not apply to (a) the
issuance of securities upon exercise or conversion of the Company's options,
warrants or other convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof, (b)
the grant of additional options or warrants, or the issuance of additional
securities, under any Company stock option or restricted stock plan for the
benefit of the Company's employees, directors or consultants, (c) the issuance
of debt securities, with no equity feature, incurred solely for working capital
purposes or (d) up to an aggregate of $2 million in aggregate purchase price
worth of convertible debt or equity securities, so long as such convertible debt
or equity securities are convertible into Common Stock at a fixed price that
does not vary based upon the trading price of the Company's Common Stock and is
not less than 75% of the closing price of the Company's Common Stock on the date
of closing of the purchase of such convertible debt or equity securities.

              6.6 FINANCIAL 10-K STATEMENTS, ETC. AND CURRENT REPORTS ON FORM
8-K. The Company shall deliver to the Investor copies of its annual reports on
Form 10-K, and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and shall deliver to the Investor

Agreement.

              6.7 OPINION OF COUNSEL. Investor shall, concurrent with the

legal counsel, in the form attached as EXHIBIT B, or in such form as agreed upon
by the parties, and shall, concurrent with each Put Date, receive an opinion
letter from the Company's legal counsel, in the form attached as EXHIBIT I or in
such form as agreed upon by the parties.

              6.8 REMOVAL OF LEGEND. If the certificates representing any
Securities are issued with a restrictive Legend in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, the Legend shall be removed and the Company shall issue a
certificate without such Legend to the holder of any Security upon which it is
stamped, and a certificate for a security shall be originally issued without the
Legend, if (a) the sale of such Security is registered under the Act, 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 (the
reasonable cost of which shall be borne by the Investor), to the effect that a
public sale or transfer of such Security may be made without registration under
the Act, or (c) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that
such Security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144. Each Investor agrees to sell all
Securities, including those represented by a certificate(s) from which the
Legend has been removed, or which were originally issued without the Legend,
pursuant to an effective registration statement and to deliver a prospectus in
connection with such sale or in compliance with an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Act.

              6.9 LISTING. Subject to the remainder of this Section 6.9, the
Company shall ensure that its shares of Common Stock (including all Warrant
Shares and Put Shares) are listed and available for trading on the O.T.C.
Bulletin Board. Thereafter, the Company shall (i) use its best efforts to
continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on the O.T.C. Bulletin
Board or to become eligible for and listed and available for trading on the
Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the NMS, or the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"); and
(ii) comply in all material respects with the Company's reporting, filing and
other obligations under the By-Laws or rules of the National Association of
Securities Dealers ("NASD") and such exchanges, as applicable.

              6.10 THE COMPANY'S INSTRUCTIONS TO TRANSFER AGENT. The Company
will instruct the Transfer Agent of the Common Stock (the "Transfer Agent"), by
delivering instructions in the form of EXHIBIT T hereto, to issue certificates,
registered in the name of each Investor or its nominee, for the Put Shares and
Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by the Company
upon any exercise by the Company of a Put and/or exercise of the Warrants by the
holder thereof. Such certificates shall not bear a Legend unless issuance with a
Legend is permitted by the terms of this Agreement and Legend removal is not
permitted by Section 6.8 hereof and the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent
to issue such certificates without a Legend. Nothing in this Section shall
affect in any way Investor's obligations and agreement set forth in Sections
3.3.2 or 3.3.3 hereof to resell the Securities pursuant to an effective
registration statement and to deliver a prospectus in connection with such sale
or in compliance with an exemption from the registration requirements of
applicable securities laws. If (a) an Investor provides the Company with an
opinion of counsel, which opinion of counsel 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 registration or (b) an Investor transfers
Securities, pursuant to Rule 144, to a transferee which is an accredited
investor, the Company shall permit the transfer, and, in the case of Put Shares
and Warrant Shares, promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more
certificates in such name and in such denomination as specified by such
Investor. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to an Investor 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
Section 6.10 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or
threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 6.10, that an
Investor shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an
injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer,
without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other
security being required.

              6.11 STOCKHOLDER 20% APPROVAL. Prior to the closing of any Put
that would cause the Aggregate Issued Shares to exceed the Cap Amount, if
required by the rules of NASDAQ because the Company's Common Stock is listed on
NASDAQ, the Company shall obtain approval of its stockholders to authorize (i)
the issuance of the full number of shares of Common Stock which would be
issuable pursuant to this Agreement but for the Cap Amount and eliminate any
prohibitions under applicable law or the rules or regulations of any stock
exchange, interdealer quotation system or other self-regulatory organization
with jurisdiction over the Company or any of its securities with respect to the
Company's ability to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Cap Amount
(such approvals being the "Stockholder 20% Approval").

              6.12 PRESS RELEASE. Any public announcement relating to this
financing (a "Press Release") shall be submitted to the Investor for review at
least two (2) business days prior to the planned release. The Company shall not
disclose the Investor's name in any press release or other public announcement
(other than SEC filings) without the Investor's prior written

                                     - 31 -

<PAGE>

approval. The Company shall obtain the Investor's written approval of the Press
Release prior to issuance by the Company.

              6.13 CHANGE IN LAW OR POLICY. In the event of a change in law, or
policy of the SEC, as evidenced by a No-Action letter or other written
statements of the SEC or the NASD which causes the Investor to be unable to
perform its obligations hereunder, this Agreement shall be automatically
terminated and no Termination Fee shall be due, provided that notwithstanding
any termination under this section 6.13, the Investor shall retain full
ownership of the Commitment Warrant as partial consideration for its commitment
hereunder.

              6.14. NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS AFFECTING REGISTRATION; SUSPENSION
OF RIGHT TO MAKE A PUT. The Company shall immediately notify the Investor, but
in no event later than two (2) business days by facsimile and by overnight
courier, upon the occurrence of any of the following events in respect of a
Registration Statement or related prospectus in respect of an offering of

Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company

fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the

any advice given by the Investor or any of its representatives or agents in
connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby is merely incidental to the Investor's purchase of the
Securities. The Company further represents to the Investor that the Company's
decision to enter into the Transaction Documents has been based solely on the
independent evaluation by the Company and its representatives and advisors.

              6.16. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree
that the sums payable as Non-Usage Fees, Termination Fees and Ineffective
Registration Payments shall each give rise to liquidated damages and not

damages likely to be incurred by the Investor is incapable or is difficult to
precisely estimate, (b) the amounts specified bear a reasonable proportion and
are not plainly or

                                     - 32 -

<PAGE>

grossly disproportionate to the probable loss likely to be incurred by the
Investor, and (c) the parties are sophisticated business parties and have been
represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial counsel and negotiated

injunctive or similar relief is sought.

         7. MISCELLANEOUS.

              7.1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SURVIVE THE CLOSING;
SEVERABILITY. Investor's and the Company's representations and warranties shall
survive the Investment Date and any Put Closing contemplated by this Agreement

party seeking to rely thereon. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
unenforceable or void, or is altered by a term required by the Securities
Exchange Commission to be included in the Registration Statement, this Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect without said provision; provided that if
the removal of such provision materially changes the economic benefit of this

court, shall be entitled to an award of all attorney's fees and costs of court.
Should the court refuse to find a prevailing party, each party shall bear its
own legal fees and costs.

              7.9 REPORTING ENTITY FOR THE COMMON STOCK. The reporting entity
relied upon for the determination of the trading price or trading volume of the
Common Stock on the Principal Market on any given Trading Day for the purposes

                   instruction letter to be provided by the Company, and signed

              (b)  IRREVOCABLE SUBSCRIPTION. Investor hereby acknowledges and

                   providing for the refund of subscription amounts submitted by
                   Investor, that this Agreement is irrevocable and that
                   Investor is not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this
                   Agreement or any other agreements executed by such Investor
                   and delivered pursuant hereto, and that this Agreement and
                   such other agreements shall survive the death or disability
                   of such Investor and shall be binding upon and inure to the
                   benefit of the parties and their heirs, executors,
                   administrators, successors, legal representatives and
                   assigns. If the Securities subscribed for are to be owned by
                   more than one person, the obligations of all such owners
                   under this Agreement shall be joint and several, and the
                   agreements, representations, warranties and acknowledgments
                   herein contained shall be deemed to be made by and be

                                     - 34 -

<PAGE>

                   binding upon each such person and his heirs, executors,
                   administrators, successors, legal representatives and
                   assigns.

         9. INDEMNIFICATION AND REIMBURSEMENT.

                               (a) INDEMNIFICATION. In consideration of the
Investor's execution and delivery of the Investment Agreement, the Registration
Rights Agreement and the Warrants (the "Transaction Documents") and acquiring
the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company's other
obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect,
indemnify and hold harmless Investor and all of its stockholders, officers,
directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing
person's agents, members, partners 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 attorney's fees and disbursements
(the "Indemnified Liabilities"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or
arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any
representation or warranty made by the Company in the Transaction Documents or
any other certificate, instrument or documents contemplated hereby or thereby,
(b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained
in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document
contemplated hereby or thereby, (c) any cause of action, suit or claim,
derivative or otherwise, by any stockholder of the Company based on a breach or
alleged breach by the Company or any of its officers or directors of their
fiduciary or other obligations to the stockholders of the Company, or (d) claims
made by third parties against any of the Indemnitees based on a violation of
Section 5 of the Securities Act caused by the integration of the private sale of
common stock to the Investor and the public offering pursuant to the
Registration Statement. The payment of Indemnified Liabilities to the Investor
shall be reduced by the difference (if any), at the time that the Investor
incurs the Indemnified Liabilities, of (x) the aggregate amounts, if any,
received by the Investor in exchange for the sale of Put Shares, minus (y) the
aggregate Put Dollar Amount paid by the Investor for all Put Shares.

           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 which it
would be required to make if such foregoing undertaking was enforceable which is
permissible under applicable law.

           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the
commencement of any action pursuant to which indemnification may be sought, such
Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the
other party (hereinafter "Indemnitor") under this Section 9, deliver to the
Indemnitor a written notice of the commencement thereof and the Indemnitor shall
have the right to participate in and to assume the defense thereof with counsel
reasonably selected by the Indemnitor, provided, however, that an Indemnified
Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the reasonably
incurred fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnitor, if
representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the
Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of
interest between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such
counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the
Indemnitor within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if
prejudicial to the Indemnitor's ability to defend such action, shall relieve the
Indemnitor of any liability to the Indemnified Party under this Section 9, but
the omission to so deliver written notice to the Indemnitor will not relieve it
of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party other than under this
Section 9 to the extent it is prejudicial.

                                      -35-

                               (b) REIMBURSEMENT. If (i) the Investor, other
than by reason of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, becomes involved
in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation brought by any
stockholder of the Company, in connection with or as a result of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, or
if the Investor is impleaded in any such action, proceeding or investigation by
any person or entity, or (ii) the Investor, other than by reason of its gross
negligence or willful misconduct, becomes involved in any capacity in any
action, proceeding or investigation brought by the SEC against or involving the
Company or in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, or if the Investor is
impleaded in any such action, proceeding or investigation by any person or
entity, then in any such case, the Company will reimburse the Investor for its
reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and
preparation ) incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred.
In addition, other than with respect to any matter in which the Investor is a
named party, the Company will pay the Investor the charges, as reasonably
determined by the Investor, for the time of any officers or employees of the
Investor devoted to appearing and preparing to appear as witnesses, assisting in
preparation for hearing, trials or pretrial matters, or otherwise with respect
to inquiries, hearing, trials, and other proceedings relating to the subject
matter of this Agreement. The reimbursement obligations of the Company under
this paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may
otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to any
Affiliates of the Investor who are actually named in such action, proceeding or
investigation, and partners, directors, agents, employees and controlling
persons (if any), as the case may be, of the Investor and any such Affiliate,
and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns,
heirs and personal representatives of the Company, the Investor and any such
Affiliate and any such person or entity. The Company also agrees that neither
any the Investor nor any such Affiliate, partners, directors, agents, employees
or controlling persons shall have any liability to the Company or any person
asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Company in connection with or
as a result of the consummation of the Transaction Documents except to the
extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by the
Company result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Investor
or any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty of the Investor contained
herein or any breach by the Investor of any of the provisions hereof.

                               (a) any Common Stock which would otherwise be
deemed to be Registrable Securities, if and to the extent that those shares of
Common Stock may be resold in a public transaction without volume limitations or
other material restrictions without registration under the Securities Act,
including without limitation, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and

                               (b) any shares of Common Stock which have been

Agreement are not assigned.

                     2.2 FILING OF INITIAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT. The Company
shall, by the Filing Deadline, file a registration statement ("Registration
Statement") on Form S-1 (or other suitable form, at the Company's discretion,
but subject to the reasonable approval of Investor), covering the resale of a
number of shares of Common Stock as Registrable Securities equal to at least

extent allowed by applicable law, such indeterminate number of additional shares
of Common Stock that may be issued or become issuable as Registrable Securities
by the Company pursuant to Rule 416 of the Securities Act. In the event that the
Company has not filed the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline, then
the Company shall pay to INVESTOR an amount equal to $500, in cash, FOR EACH
BUSINESS DAY AFTER THE FILING DEADLINE until such Registration Statement is
filed, payable within ten (10) BUSINESS DAYS following the end of each calendar
month in which such payments accrue. In addition, anytime the Company has issued
Additional Warrants to the Investor totaling 240,000 shares which are not
registered for resale, the Company shall promptly file a registration statement
(on Form S-1, or other suitable form, at the Company's discretion, but subject
to the reasonable approval of Investor), covering the resale of a number of
shares of Common Stock as Registrable Securities equal to at least the number of
Additional Warrant shares that are not registered for resale and shall cover, to
the extent allowed by applicable law, such indeterminate number of additional
shares of Common Stock that may be issued or become issuable as Registrable
Securities by the Company pursuant to Rule 416 of the Securities Act.

<PAGE>

                     2.3 REGISTRATION EFFECTIVE DATE. The Company shall use its
best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC
(the date of such effectiveness is referred to herein as the "Effective Date")
by the Due Date.

                     2.4 SHELF REGISTRATION. The Registration Statement shall be
prepared as a "shelf" registration statement under Rule 415, and shall be
maintained effective until all Registrable Securities are resold pursuant to the
Registration Statement.

                     2.5 SUPPLEMENTAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT. Anytime the
Registration Statement does not cover a sufficient number of shares of Common
Stock to cover all outstanding Registrable Securities, the Company shall
promptly prepare and file with the SEC such Supplemental Registration Statement
and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be
necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to
the disposition of all such Registrable Securities and shall use its best
efforts to cause such Supplemental Registration Statement to be declared
effective as soon as possible.

                     2.6 REGISTRATION RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES. Top Eagle
Holdings, Ltd. has contractual rights to have included in the Registration
Statement up to 4,500,000 shares issuable to it pursuant to the exercise of a
convertible debenture and the exercise of related warrants.

           3. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Whenever required under this Agreement
to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as
expeditiously and reasonably possible:

                     (a) Prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable
Securities and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to
become effective and to remain effective until the earlier of (i) the date that
all Registrable Securities are resold pursuant to such Registration Statement,
or (ii) the date that is one (1) year after the Termination Date (as defined in
the Investment Agreement).

                     (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such Registration Statement ("Amended Registration Statement") or prepare
and file any additional registration statement ("Additional Registration
Statement," together with the Amended Registration Statement, "Supplemental
Registration Statements") as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of
the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by
such Supplemental Registration Statements or such prior registration statement
and to cover the resale of all Registrable Securities.

                     (c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus (if applicable), in conformity
with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable
Securities owned by them.

                     (d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the
securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or
Blue Sky laws of the jurisdictions in which the Holders are located, of such
other jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders of the
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement and of all other
jurisdictions where legally required, provided that the Company shall not be
required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do
business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states
or jurisdictions, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay for
such filings, if any, except in the states of Georgia, Delaware and New York.

<PAGE>

                     (e)       [Intentionally Omitted].

                     (f) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such
event, notify each Holder of Registrable Securities of the happening of any
event of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus
included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, use its best efforts
promptly to prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement to
correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a number of copies of
such supplement or amendment to each Holder as such Holder may reasonably
request.

                     (g) Provide Holders with notice of the date that a
Registration Statement or any Supplemental Registration Statement registering
the resale of the Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, and
the date or dates when the Registration Statement is no longer effective.

                     (h) Provide Holders and their representatives the
opportunity and a reasonable amount of time, based upon reasonable notice
delivered by the Company, to conduct a reasonable due diligence inquiry of
Company's pertinent financial and other records and make available its officers
and directors for questions regarding such information as it relates to
information contained in the Registration Statement.

                     (i) Provide Holders and their representatives the
opportunity to review the Registration Statement and all amendments or
supplements thereto prior to their filing with the SEC by giving the Holder at
least five (5) Business Days advance written notice prior to such filing,
provided that two (2) Business Days advance written notice shall suffice with
respect to amendments and supplements if more notice is unreasonable under the
circumstances.

                     (j) Provide each Holder with prompt notice of the issuance
by the SEC or any state securities commission or agency of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of
any proceeding for such purpose. The Company shall use its best efforts to
prevent the issuance of any stop order and, if any is issued, to obtain the
removal thereof at the earliest possible date.

                     (k) Use its best efforts to list the Registrable Securities
covered by the Registration Statement with all securities exchanges or markets
on which the Common Stock is then listed and prepare and file any required
filing with the NASD, American Stock Exchange, NYSE and any other exchange or
market on which the Common Stock is listed.

           4.        INEFFECTIVE PERIOD.

                     (a) INEFFECTIVE PERIOD PAYMENT. Within five (5) Business
           Days of the last day of any Ineffective Period, the Company will pay
           to the Investor in cash ("Ineffective Period Payments"), as
           liquidated damages for such suspension and not as a penalty, an
           amount equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issued to the
           Investor in any Put with a Pricing Period End Date (as defined in the
           Investment Agreement) that is thirty (30) business days or less prior
           to the date that the Ineffective Period commences, multiplied by the
           difference of

<PAGE>

                               (i) the highest closing price of the Company's
                     Common Stock for any trading day during the Ineffective
                     Period,

                               minus

                               (ii) the lowest closing price of the Company's
                     Common Stock for the five (5) trading days including and
                     immediately following the last trading day of such
                     Ineffective Period.

                     (b) LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. The parties hereto acknowledge and
agree that the sums payable as Ineffective Period Payments shall give rise to
liquidated damages and not penalties. The parties further acknowledge that (i)
the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred by the Holder is incapable
or is difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified bear a
reasonable proportion and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to the
probable loss likely to be incurred by the Investor, and (iii) the parties are
sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and
able legal and financial counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm's length.

           5. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION. If anytime prior to the date that the
Registration Statement is declared effective or during any Ineffective Period
(as defined in the Investment Agreement) the Company proposes to register
(including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for
shareholders other than the Holders) any of its Common Stock under the
Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely
for cash (other than a registration relating solely for the sale of securities
to participants in a Company stock plan or a registration on Form S-4
promulgated under the Securities Act or any successor or similar form
registering stock issuable upon a reclassification, upon a business combination
involving an exchange of securities or upon an exchange offer for securities of
the issuer or another entity), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give
each Holder written notice of such registration (a "Piggyback Registration
Statement"). Upon the written request of each Holder given by fax within ten
(10) days after mailing of such notice by the Company, the Company shall cause
to be included in such registration statement under the Securities Act all of
the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered
("Piggyback Registration") to the extent such inclusion does not violate the
registration rights of any other security holder of the company granted prior to
the date hereof; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the
Company from withdrawing or abandoning such registration statement prior to its
effectiveness.

           6. LIMITATION ON OBLIGATIONS TO REGISTER UNDER A PIGGYBACK
REGISTRATION. In the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to an
underwritten public offering by the Company, if the managing underwriter
determines and advises in writing that the inclusion in the related Piggyback
Registration Statement of all Registrable Securities proposed to be included
would interfere with the successful marketing of the securities proposed to be
registered by the Company, then the number of such Registrable Securities to be
included in such Piggyback Registration Statement, to the extent any such
Registrable Securities may be included in such Piggyback Registration Statement,
shall be allocated among all Holders who had requested Piggyback Registration
pursuant to the terms hereof, in the proportion that the number of Registrable
Securities which each such Holder seeks to register bears to the total number of
Registrable Securities sought to be included by all Holders. If required by the
managing underwriter of such an underwritten public offering, the Holders shall
enter into an agreement limiting the number of Registrable Securities to be
included in such Piggyback Registration Statement and the terms, if any,
regarding the future sale of such Registrable Securities.

<PAGE>

           7. DISPUTE AS TO REGISTRABLE SECURITIES. In the event the Company
believes that shares sought to be registered under Section 2 or Section 5 by
Holders do not constitute "Registrable Securities" by virtue of Section 2.1 of
this Agreement, and the status of those shares as Registrable Securities is
disputed, the Company shall provide, at its expense, an Opinion of Counsel,
reasonably acceptable to the Holders of the Securities at issue (and
satisfactory to the Company's transfer agent to permit the sale and transfer),
that those securities may be sold immediately, without volume limitation or
other material restrictions, without registration under the Securities Act, by
virtue of Rule 144 or similar provisions.

           8. FURNISH INFORMATION. At the Company's request, each Holder shall
furnish to the Company such information regarding Holder, the Registrable
Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities
to the extent required to effect the registration of its Registrable Securities
or to determine that registration is not required pursuant to Rule 144 or other
applicable provision of the Securities Act. The Company shall include all
information provided by such Holder pursuant hereto in the Registration
Statement, substantially in the form supplied, except to the extent such
information is not permitted by law.

           9. EXPENSES. All expenses, other than commissions and fees and
expenses of counsel to the selling Holders, incurred in connection with
registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant hereto, including (without
limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers' and
accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, shall be
borne by the Company.

           10. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are
included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

                     (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, partners,
legal counsel, and accountants of each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in
the Securities Act, or as deemed by the Securities Exchange Commission, or as
indicated in a registration statement) for such Holder and each person, if any,
who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or
liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise
out of or are based upon any of the following statements or omissions: (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, or (ii)
the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
the Company will reimburse each such Holder, officer or director, underwriter or
controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them
in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained
in this subsection 10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any
such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected
without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss,
claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is
based upon a violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such
registration by any such Holder, officer, director, underwriter or controlling
person; provided however, that the above shall not relieve the Company from any
other liabilities which it might otherwise have.

<PAGE>

                     (b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
this Section 10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 10, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume, the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall
have the right to retain its own counsel, with the reasonably incurred fees and
expenses of one such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party, if
representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting
interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such
counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such
action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall
relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under
this Section 10, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any
indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 10.

                     (c) 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 which it would be required to make if such foregoing undertaking was
enforceable which is permissible under applicable law.

                     (d) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this
Section 10 shall survive the resale, if any, of the Common Stock, the completion
of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this
Agreement, and otherwise.

           11. REPORTS UNDER EXCHANGE ACT. With a view to making available to
the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and
any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to
sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company
agrees to:

                     (a) make and keep public information available, as those
terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; and

                     (b) use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely
manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

           12. AMENDMENTS TO REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Any provision of this
Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either
generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or
prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and the written
consent of each Holder affected thereby. Any amendment or waiver effected in
accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each Holder, each future
Holder, and the Company. The Company will provide the Investor five (5) business
days notice prior to filing any amendment to the Registration Statement or any
amendment or supplement to the Prospectus and shall give the Investor the
opportunity to review and comment on any such amendment or supplement. Failure
of the Investor to comment within five (5) business days shall not preclude the
Company from filing such amendment or supplement after such notice period has
expired.

<PAGE>

           13. NOTICES. All notices required or permitted under this Agreement

the party as shown on the records of the Company. Any notice, except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, shall be made by fax and shall be deemed
given at the time of transmission of the fax.

           14. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall terminate on the date all
Registrable Securities cease to exist (as that term is defined in Section 2.1
hereof); but without prejudice to (i) the parties' rights and obligations
arising from breaches of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination (ii)
other indemnification obligations under this Agreement.

           15. ASSIGNMENT. No assignment, transfer or delegation, whether by
operation of law or otherwise, of any rights or obligations under this Agreement
by the Company or any Holder, respectively, shall be made without the prior
written consent of the majority in interest of the Holders or the Company,
respectively; provided that the rights of a Holder may be transferred to a
subsequent holder of the Holder's Registrable Securities (provided such
transferee shall provide to the Company, together with or prior to such
transferee's request to have such Registrable Securities included in a
Registration, a writing executed by such transferee agreeing to be bound as a
Holder by the terms of this Agreement), and the Company hereby agrees to file an
amended registration statement including such transferee as a selling security
holder thereunder; and provided further that the Company may transfer its rights
and obligations under this Agreement to a purchaser of all or a substantial
portion of its business if the obligations of the Company under this Agreement
are assumed in connection with such transfer, either by merger or other
operation of law (which may include without limitation a transaction whereby the
Registrable Securities are converted into securities of the successor in
interest) or by specific assumption executed by the transferee.

           16. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia applicable to agreements
made in and wholly to be performed in that jurisdiction, except for matters
arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, which matters shall be
construed and interpreted in accordance with such laws. Any dispute arising out
of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination or validity hereof
shall be finally settled by the state court located in FORSYTH COUNTY, GEORGIA.

           17. EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS PERMITTED. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be enforceable
against the parties actually executing such counterparts, and all of which
together shall constitute one (1) instrument.

           18. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The Holder shall be entitled to the remedy
of specific performance in the event of the Company's breach of this Agreement,
the parties agreeing that a remedy at law would be inadequate.

           19. INDEMNITY. Each party shall indemnify each other party against
any and all claims, damages (including reasonable attorney's fees), and expenses
arising out of the first party's breach of any of the terms of this Agreement.

                             SCHEDULE OF EXCEPTIONS

           Pursuant to Section 5 of the Investment Agreement by and between
Tengtu International Corp. (the "Company") and Swartz Private Equity, LLC, this
Exhibit C sets forth the exceptions and explanations deemed necessary by the
Company. The numbers set forth below correspond to the enumerated subsections of
Section 5 of the Investment Agreement. Any terms defined in the Investment
Agreement shall have the same meaning when used in this Schedule of Exceptions.
Nothing in this Schedule of Exceptions constitutes and admission of any
liability or obligation of the Company to any third party, nor an admission
against the Company's interests.

5.5        COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS

           Between March, 2000 and May, 2000, the Company's stock was delisted
from trading on the OTC Bulletin Board for more than two trading days which
constitutes an Event of Default under a Floating Convertible Debenture issued to
Top Eagle Holdings, Ltd. ("Top Eagle"). The Company's common stock was restored
to trading on the OTC Bulletin Board after it demonstrated compliance with NASD
Rule 6530. To date, no action has been taken by Top Eagle to declare a default
under the Floating Convertible Debenture.

5.7        CAPITALIZATION

           The Company is obligated to register its securities under an Investor
Rights Agreement between the Company and Top Eagle dated December 23, 1999.

5.10       NO RIGHTS OF PARTICIPATION

           Top Eagle has a right of first offer which has been forfeited by
virtue of Top Eagle's failure to notify the Company, within ten days of receipt
of notice of the transaction between the Company and Swartz, of an intention to
exercise such right.

5.14       AVAILABILITY OF SUITABLE FORM FOR REGISTRATION

           The registration forms currently available to the Company are S-1 and
SB-2. The Company is not eligible to use Form S-3 for registration of resales.

5.17       KEY EMPLOYEES

           Barry Clark, the President of the Company, has a consulting contract
with the Company through B.D. Clark & Associates, Ltd. That contract expired in
March, 2000 and the parties have not entered into a contract or extension.

5.23       MAJOR TRANSACTIONS

           On or about October 3, 2000, Iconix International, Inc. entered into
an asset purchase agreement for the sale of substantially all of its assets
which closed on October 6, 2000.

5.24       FINANCINGS

                 The Company contemplates obtaining additional financing as
permitted by Section 6.5.3 of the Investment Agreement.

     ----

                        WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
                                       OF
                           TENGTU INTERNATIONAL CORP.

           THIS CERTIFIES that SWARTZ PRIVATE EQUITY, LLC or any subsequent
holder hereof ("Holder"), has the right to purchase from Tengtu International
Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), up to "N" fully paid and
nonassessable shares, wherein "N" is defined below, of the Company's common
stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Common Stock"), subject to adjustment as
provided herein, at a price equal to the Exercise Price as defined in Section 3
below, at any time beginning on the Date of Issuance (defined below) and ending
at 5:00 p.m., New York, New York time the date that is five (5) years after the
Date of Issuance (the "Exercise Period"); provided, that, with respect to each
"Put," as that term is defined in that certain Investment Agreement (the
"Investment Agreement") by and between the initial Holder and Company, dated on
or about October 25, 2000, "N" shall equal ten percent (10%) of the number of
shares of Common Stock purchased by the Holder in that Put.

           Holder agrees with the Company that this Warrant to Purchase Common
Stock of the Company (this "Warrant") is issued and all rights hereunder shall
be held subject to all of the conditions, limitations and provisions set forth
herein.

           1.        DATE OF ISSUANCE AND TERM.
                     --------------------------

           This Warrant shall be deemed to be issued on _____________, ______
("Date of Issuance"). The term of this Warrant is five (5) years from the Date
of Issuance.

                     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
                               applicable portion of this Warrant shall not be
                               exercisable during any time that, and only to the
                               extent that, the number of shares of Common Stock
                               to be issued to Holder upon such exercise, when
                               added to the number of shares of Common Stock, if

<PAGE>

                               any, that the Holder otherwise beneficially owns
                               at the time of such exercise, would equal or
                               exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of Common
                               Stock then outstanding, as determined in
                               accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act
                               (the "4.99% Limitation"). The 4.99% Limitation
                               shall be conclusively satisfied if the applicable
                               Exercise Notice includes a signed representation
                               by the Holder that the issuance of the shares in
                               such Exercise Notice will not violate the 4.99%
                               Limitation, and the Company shall not be entitled
                               to require additional documentation of such
                               satisfaction.

           2.        EXERCISE.
                     --------

           (A) MANNER OF EXERCISE. During the Exercise Period, this Warrant may
be exercised as to all or any lesser number of full shares of Common Stock
covered hereby (the "Warrant Shares") upon surrender of this Warrant, with the
Exercise Form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A (the "Exercise Form") duly completed
and executed, together with the full Exercise Price (as defined below) for each
share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is exercised, at the office of
the Company, Attention: Pak Kwan Peter Cheung, Chairman & CEO, Tengtu
International Corp., 206-5050 Kingsway Burnaby, BC, Canada, V5H 4H2; Telephone:
(604) 438-9827, Facsimile: (604) 439-9869, or at such other office or agency as
the Company may designate in writing, by overnight mail, with an advance copy of
the Exercise Form sent to the Company and its Transfer Agent by facsimile (such
surrender and payment of the Exercise Price hereinafter called the "Exercise of
this Warrant").

           (B) DATE OF EXERCISE. The "Date of Exercise" of the Warrant shall be
defined as the date that the advance copy of the completed and executed Exercise
Form is sent by facsimile to the Company, provided that the original Warrant and
Exercise Form are received by the Company as soon as practicable thereafter.
Alternatively, the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date the original
Exercise Form is received by the Company, if Holder has not sent advance notice
by facsimile. The Company shall not be required to deliver the shares of Common
Stock to the Holder until the requirements of Section 2(a) above are satisfied.

           (C) DELIVERY OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK UPON EXERCISE. Upon any
exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
deliver, or shall cause its transfer agent to deliver, a stock certificate or
certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock into which this
Warrant was exercised, within three (3) trading days of the date that all of the
following have been received by the Company: (i) the original completed and
executed Exercise Form, (ii) the original Warrant and (iii) the Exercise Price
(if applicable)(collectively, the "Receipt Date"). Such stock certificates shall
not contain a legend restricting transfer if a registration statement covering
the resale of such shares of Common Stock is in effect at the time of such
exercise or if such shares of Common Stock may be resold pursuant to an
exemption from registration, including but not limited to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act of 1933

           (D) ECONOMIC LOSS DUE TO LATE DELIVERY OF SHARES. If the Company
fails for any reason to deliver the requisite number of shares of Common Stock
(unlegended, if so required by the terms of this Warrant)(the "Warrant Shares")
to a Holder upon an exercise of this Warrant within fifteen (15) business days
of the Receipt Date (the "Late Delivery Deadline"), the Company shall pay such
Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to Holder) an amount equal
to ("Non-Delivery Payment") the number of Warrant Shares for which delivery is
late, multiplied by the difference of:

<PAGE>

                     (x) the highest closing price for the Company's Common
                     Stock for any trading day during the period beginning on
                     and including the Date of Exercise and ending on the
                     earlier of (i) the date that the Investor receives from the
                     Company certificates (unlegended, if so required by the
                     terms of this Warrant) representing the Warrant Shares of
                     Common Stock issuable in conjunction with such Exercise, or
                     (ii) the date that the Investor receives the full amount of
                     the Non-Delivery Payment, whichever is earlier,

                     minus

                     (y) the Exercise Price per share (which, in the case of a
                     Cashless Exercise, shall be deemed to equal zero), or, if
                     the Investor has received the Warrant Shares (unlegended,
                     if so required by the terms of this Warrant) from the
                     Company prior to the payment of the Non-Delivery Payment,
                     the lowest closing price of the Company's Common Stock for
                     the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date
                     that such Warrant Shares are delivered to the Holder.

                     Non-Delivery Payments shall be payable, in cash or cash
                     equivalent, within five (5) business days of the Late
                     Delivery Deadline.

           (E) LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
the sums payable as Non-Delivery Payments shall give rise to liquidated damages
and not penalties. The parties further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss
or damages likely to be incurred by the Holder is incapable or is difficult to
precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified bear a reasonable proportion and
are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to the probable loss likely to be
incurred by the Investor, and (iii) the parties are sophisticated business
parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial
counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm's length.

           (F) CANCELLATION OF WARRANT. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the
Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise,
Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares
purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not
exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant (containing
terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this
Warrant in addition to such Common Stock.

           (G) HOLDER OF RECORD. Each person in whose name any Warrant for
shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be the
Holder of record of such shares on the Date of Exercise of this Warrant,
irrespective of the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the
Exercise of this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as
conferring upon Holder any rights as a stockholder of the Company.

           3.        PAYMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE.
                     ---------------------------------

           The Exercise Price ("Exercise Price"), shall initially equal $Y per
share ("Initial Exercise Price"), where "Y" shall equal the Market Price for the
applicable Put (as both are defined in the Investment Agreement) or, if the Date
of Exercise is more than six (6) months after the Date of Issuance, the lesser
of (i) the Initial Exercise Price or (ii) the "Lowest Reset Price," as that term
is defined below. The Company shall calculate a "Reset Price" on each six-month
anniversary date of the Date of Issuance which shall equal the lowest Closing
Bid Price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days ending on such
six-month anniversary date of the Date of Issuance. The "Lowest Reset Price"
shall equal the lowest Reset Price determined on any six-month anniversary date

<PAGE>

of the Date of Issuance preceding the Date of Exercise, taking into account, as
appropriate, any adjustments made pursuant to Section 5 hereof.

           For purposes hereof, the term "Closing Bid Price" shall mean the
closing bid price on the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, the National Market System
("NMS"), the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, or if no
longer traded on the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, the NMS, the New York Stock
Exchange, the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the "Closing Bid Price" shall equal the
closing price on the principal national securities exchange or the
over-the-counter system on which the Common Stock is so traded and, if not
available, the mean of the high and low prices on the principal national
securities exchange on which the Common Stock is so traded.

           Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following,
or a combination thereof, at the election of Holder:

           (i) CASH EXERCISE: cash, bank or cashiers check or wire transfer; or

           (ii) CASHLESS EXERCISE: surrender of this Warrant at the principal
office of the Company together with notice of cashless election, in which event
the Company shall issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using
the following formula:

                                  X = Y (A-B)/A

where:   X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.

         Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
             being exercised.

                   A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for
                   purposes of this Section 3(ii), the "Market Price" shall be
                   defined as the average closing price of the Common Stock
                   for the five (5) trading days prior to the Date of Exercise
                   of this Warrant (the "Average Closing Price"), as reported
                   by the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, National Association of
                   Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System ("Nasdaq")
                   Small Cap Market, or if the Common Stock is not traded on
                   the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the Average Closing Price in
                   any other over-the-counter market; provided, however, that
                   if the Common Stock is listed on a stock exchange, the
                   Market Price shall be the Average Closing Price on such
                   exchange for the five (5) trading days prior to the date of
                   exercise of the Warrants. If the Common Stock is/was not
                   traded during the five (5) trading days prior to the Date
                   of Exercise, then the closing price for the last publicly
                   traded day shall be deemed to be the closing price for any
                   and all (if applicable) days during such five (5) trading
                   day period.

                   B = the Exercise Price.

                   For purposes of Rule 144 and sub-section (d)(3)(ii) thereof,
it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to
have been acquired at the time this Warrant was issued. Moreover, it is
intended, understood and acknowledged that the holding period for the Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction
shall be deemed to have commenced on the date this Warrant was issued.

<PAGE>

           4.        TRANSFER AND REGISTRATION.
                     -------------------------

           (a) TRANSFER RIGHTS. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this
Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, in whole
or in part, in person or by attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly
completed and endorsed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and,
as soon as practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made
shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of this
Warrant transferred, and Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant as to
the portion hereof retained.

           (b) REGISTRABLE SECURITIES. The Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant constitutes "Registrable Securities" under that certain
Registration Rights Agreement dated on or about October 25, 2000 between the
Company and certain investors and, accordingly, has the benefit of the
registration rights pursuant to that agreement.

           5.        ANTI-DILUTION ADJUSTMENTS.
                     -------------------------

           (a) STOCK DIVIDEND. If the Company shall at any time declare a
dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, then Holder, upon Exercise of this
Warrant after the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive such dividend, shall be entitled to receive upon Exercise of
this Warrant, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock as to which
this Warrant is exercised, such additional shares of Common Stock as such Holder
would have received had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such
record date and the Exercise Price will be proportionately adjusted.

           (b) RECAPITALIZATION OR RECLASSIFICATION. If the Company shall at any
time effect a recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of
such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become
exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares, then upon the effective
date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall be
entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or
decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease
in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such recapitalization,
reclassification or similar transaction, and the Exercise Price shall be, in the
case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionally decreased and, in
the case of decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased. The
Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders of Common Stock
of any transaction described in this Section 5(b).

           (c) DISTRIBUTIONS. If the Company shall at any time distribute for no
consideration to holders of Common Stock cash, evidences of indebtedness or
other securities or assets (other than cash dividends or distributions payable
out of earned surplus or net profits for the current or preceding years) then,
in any such case, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon Exercise of this
Warrant, with respect to each share of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise,
the amount of cash or evidences of indebtedness or other securities or assets
which Holder would have been entitled to receive with respect to each such share
of Common Stock as a result of the happening of such event had this Warrant been
exercised immediately prior to the record date or other date fixing shareholders
to be affected by such event (the "Determination Date") or, in lieu thereof, if
the Board of Directors of the Company should so determine at the time of such
distribution, a reduced Exercise Price determined by multiplying the Exercise
Price on the Determination Date by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
result of such Exercise Price reduced by the value of such distribution
applicable to one share of Common Stock (such value to be determined by the
Board of Directors of the Company in its discretion) and the denominator of
which is such Exercise Price.

<PAGE>

           (d) NOTICE OF CONSOLIDATION OR MERGER. The Company shall not, at any
time after the date hereof, effect a merger, consolidation, exchange of shares,
recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which
shares of Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of
shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities or other
assets of the Company or another entity or there is a sale of all or
substantially all the Company's assets (a "Corporate Change"), unless the
resulting successor or acquiring entity (the "Resulting Entity") assumes by
written instrument the Company's obligations under this Warrant, including but
not limited to the Exercise Price reset provisions as provided herein during the
term of the resultant warrants, and agrees in such written instrument that this
Warrant shall be exerciseable into such class and type of securities or other
assets of the Resulting Entity as Holder would have received had Holder
exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such Corporate Change, and the
Exercise Price of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased (if this
Warrant shall be changed into or become exchangeable for a warrant to purchase a
smaller number of shares of Common Stock of the Resulting Entity) or shall be
proportionately decreased (if this Warrant shall be changed or become
exchangeable for a warrant to purchase a larger number of shares of Common Stock
of the Resulting Entity); provided, however, that Company may not affect any
Corporate Change unless it first shall have given thirty (30) days notice to
Holder hereof of any Corporate Change.

           (e) EXERCISE PRICE ADJUSTED. As used in this Warrant, the term
"Exercise Price" shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3
of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in subsection (a), (b),
(c) or (d) of this Section 5, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted
from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. No such
adjustment under this Section 5 shall be made unless such adjustment would
change the Exercise Price at the time by $0.01 or more; provided, however, that
all adjustments not so made shall be deferred and made when the aggregate
thereof would change the Exercise Price at the time by $0.01 or more. No
adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net
effect of increasing the Exercise Price in relation to the split adjusted and
distribution adjusted price of the Common Stock. The number of shares of Common
Stock subject hereto shall increase proportionately with each decrease in the
Exercise Price.

           (f) ADJUSTMENTS: ADDITIONAL SHARES, SECURITIES OR ASSETS. In the
event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 5, Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to
receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then,
wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be
deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets;
and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall
be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly
equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.

           6.        FRACTIONAL INTERESTS.
                     --------------------

                     No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant,
but on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder may purchase only a whole number of
shares of Common Stock. If, on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be
entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a
fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise shall be the next
higher number of shares.

<PAGE>

           7.        RESERVATION OF SHARES.
                     ---------------------

                     The Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such
number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock
(or other securities substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be
sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price.
The Company covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly
issued, fully paid, nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights, rights
of first refusal or similar rights of any person or entity.

           8.        RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.
                     ------------------------

                     (a) REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION REQUIRED. This Warrant has
been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the
Act by virtue of Regulation D and exempt from state registration under
applicable state laws. The Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon the
Exercise of this Warrant may not be pledged, transferred, sold or assigned
except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption to the
registration requirements of the Act and applicable state laws.

                     (b) ASSIGNMENT. If Holder can provide the Company with
reasonably satisfactory evidence that the conditions of (a) above regarding
registration or exemption have been satisfied, Holder may sell, transfer,
assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part. Holder
shall deliver a written notice to Company, substantially in the form of the
Assignment attached hereto as EXHIBIT B, indicating the person or persons to
whom the Warrant shall be assigned and the respective number of warrants to be
assigned to each assignee. The Company shall effect the assignment within ten
(10) days, and shall deliver to the assignee(s) designated by Holder a Warrant
or Warrants of like tenor and terms for the appropriate number of shares.

           9.        BENEFITS OF THIS WARRANT.
                     ------------------------

                     Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon
any person other than the Company and Holder any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under this Warrant and this Warrant shall be
for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and Holder.

           10.       APPLICABLE LAW.

                     This Warrant is issued under and shall for all purposes be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Georgia,
without giving effect to conflict of law provisions thereof.

           11.       LOSS OF WARRANT.
                     ---------------

                     Upon receipt by the Company of evidence of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or
destruction) of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Company,
and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.

                               TENGTU RISK FACTORS

Prospective investors should carefully consider the specific factors set forth
below, as well as the other information contained in this prospectus, before
deciding to invest in the common stock offered hereby.

                     WE HAVE ONLY BEEN AN OPERATING BUSINESS
                     FOR A SHORT TIME AND IT MAY BE DIFFICULT
                     TO EVALUATE OUR BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS

While we were organized in May, 1988, we have only been an operating company
since 1996 and are subject to all of the business risks associated with a new
enterprise, including, but not limited to, risks of unforeseen capital
requirements, failure of market acceptance, failure to establish business
relationships, and competitive disadvantages as against larger and more
established companies. The effect of any or all of these risks could affect the
trading price of our common stock and you may lose all or part of your
investment

                        WE HAVE HAD OPERATING LOSSES AND
                       THESE OPERATING LOSSES MAY CONTINUE

We have experienced sustained significant operating losses that have resulted in
substantial consumption of our cash reserves. The majority of our research,
development and engineering activities are dedicated to the development of new
software. As a result, we are not generating sufficient revenue from the sales
of our existing products to cover the expenses associated with the development
of new products and the costs of distribution, which in the case of Total
Solution requires the training of teachers and installers. For the fiscal years
ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999, we had a net loss of $4.7 million and
$1.9 million, respectively. Educational software requires extensive continuing
development which may result in continuing operating losses notwithstanding any
greatly increased sales of our products or the products of others for which we
act as the Peoples' Republic of China ("PRC") distributor. There is no assurance
that the profits from our existing products or from acting as the distributor of
Microsoft (China) Ltd.'s products used in the K-12 market will be sufficient to
offset the software development costs and related costs unique to the PRC, such
as training of teachers and employees of our distributors.

                        OUR AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2000
                        CONTAIN "GOING CONCERN" LANGUAGE

The independent auditor's report for our financial statements for the year ended
June 30, 2000 states that because of the significant operating loss of $4.7
million, negative cash flows from operations of $1.2 million and a working
capital deficit of $2.9 million, that as of June 30, 2000, there is substantial
doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. A "going-concern"
opinion indicates that the financial statements have been prepared assuming we
will continue as a going-concern. Management is addressing the going concern
opinion with a plan of equity and debt financing, the sale of Iconix, a
partially-owned subsidiary which could net in excess of $.65 million and
anticipated near-term profits from the sale of Total Solution, any profits from

<PAGE>

future sales of its products, its Microsoft distributorship or operations of
Edsoft (Hong Kong)

                       WE ARE IN DEFAULT ON OUR COMMITMENT
                  TO FUND TENGTU UNITED ELECTRONICS DEVELOPMENT

A major consideration for our 57% ownership interest in the Tengtu United joint
venture was our commitment to provide $12 million in capital funding of which
only $6 million has been furnished. Due to our operating losses and the lack of
proper funding to Beijing Tengtu United Electronics Development Co., Ltd. joint
venture ("Tengtu United"), Tengtu United is now being funded by one of the
shareholders of Tengtu China, Beijing Oriental Lian Fa Technology and Trade
Group, Co. Ltd. ("Oriental Lian Fa"), the owner of the other 43%. Although Zhang
Fan Qi, a director, is also the controlling shareholder of Oriental Lian Fa,
there is no assurance that Oriental Lian Fa will, through Tengtu China, continue
to fund Tengtu United, especially if we do not promptly satisfy the balance of
our funding commitment to Tengtu United, of which there is no assurance. If
Tengtu United has no funding, then our ability to remain in the PRC K-12 market
would be materially and adversely affected.

                             DEPENDENCE ON FINANCING

Our long-term ability to meet our liquidity requirements and to continue
operations will depend on the following:

-          our ability to raise additional capital, including our ability to
           draw down money pursuant to the Swartz equity line;

-          our ability to raise additional capital - we may need additional
           funds both prior to and after the Swartz equity line is available to
           accelerate our development and marketing plans. Our inability to
           obtain necessary capital or financing to fund these needs could
           adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial
           condition. Additional financing may not be available when needed or
           may not be available on terms acceptable to us. If additional funds
           are raised by issuing equity securities, stockholders may incur
           dilution. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to
           delay, scale back or eliminate one or more of our development or
           marketing programs or otherwise limit the development or marketing of
           our products, which may affect our business, results of operations
           and financial condition and reduce the value of your investment.

-          our ability to profitably market Total Solution and generate profits
           from our distributorship arrangements with Microsoft China and
           others;

-          Edsoft's ability to generate a profit;

-          our ability to develop new products for or related to the K-12 market
           and then produce, market and/or distribute those products at a
           profit; and

-          our ability to promptly fund the balance of our commitment to Tengtu
           United.

<PAGE>

Our future working capital and capital expenditure requirements may vary
materially from those now planned depending on numerous factors, including:

-          the ability to sell and install the Total Solution platform at a
           profit;

-          the ability to market and distribute the Digital Library System and
           the General School Networking System;

-          the ability to develop and market new software products to be used by
           or directly related to the K-12 market;

-          the ability of TIC Beijing to transform itself from a highly skilled
           post- production facility into a meaningful and profitable producer
           or packager of programs for the K-12 educational and entertainment
           market in the PRC; and

-          the ability to upgrade its staff, products and services as a systems
           integrator/software developer to enable us to also become an
           Application Service Provider/Internet Content Provider to put us in
           the position to become a leading provider of products and services
           over the internet to PRC children between 5 and 18 and their parents.

                      WE MAY BE UNABLE TO OBTAIN SUFFICIENT
                      FUNDS FROM THE EQUITY LINE AGREEMENT
                     WITH SWARTZ TO MEET OUR LIQUIDITY NEEDS

To continue operations, we must obtain sufficient funds from the equity line
agreement with Swartz. However, the amount of money we can obtain under this
equity line is limited by the future market price and volume of trading of our
common stock. If the price of our common stock remains at its current level, or
trading volume in our common stock is low, we may be unable to obtain sufficient
funds to meet our liquidity needs, including the balance of our commitment to
Tengtu United and the capital needed to make TIC Beijing a meaningful producer
of animation and educational digital products. Although we are in discussions
with other financing sources, we do not at this time have any other commitments
for financing in place to satisfy our liquidity needs.

                          WE INCUR SIGNIFICANT EXPENSES
                     TO SUPPORT OUR NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

In order to support anticipated growth and new product development, we expect to
incur significantly increased operating expenses and capital expenditures in the
future. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses in the near future,
primarily as a result of the following:

-          increased research and development associated with keeping our
           existing software educational products competitive and developing new
           products for this rapidly developing market; and

<PAGE>

-          expansion of direct distribution of products related to the national
           roll-out of the Total Solution and Microsoft China products for the
           K-12 market in the PRC, expansion of the Company's products in Hong
           Kong through Edsoft and then southeast Asia;

-          the capital needed to enable us to become an Application Service
           Provider/Internet Service Provider; and

-          The estimated capital needed to transform TIC Beijing into a major
           producer rather than as only a provider of post-production technical
           services.

Research and development expenditures for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000
and 1999 were minimal, primarily as a result of insufficient capital. Tengtu
China, our 43% joint venture partner funded almost all of its development costs
of the joint venture in the last 9 months due to our limited capital. The future
level of R&D expenditures will depend on significant profits or financings, of
which there is no assurance, delays or changes in central and local governmental
policies and approval procedures, technological and competitive developments and
strategic marketing decisions.

                            LEGAL UNCERTAINTIES UNDER
                      THE CURRENT CHINESE LEGAL ENVIRONMENT

The Chinese legal system is based on written statutes and, unlike common law
systems, decided legal cases in China have little precedential value. In 1979,
China began the process of developing its legal system by undertaking to
promulgate a comprehensive system of laws. Its development is an ongoing
process. On December 29, 1993, the National People's Congress promulgated the
Company Law of The People's Republic of China ("PRC"). The Company Law, the
rules and regulations promulgated under and legal prescriptions relating to
Chinese companies, provide the core of the legal framework governing the
corporate behavior of companies such as the Company's subsidiaries and joint
venture and their respective directors, shareholders and participants. Because
these laws, regulations and legal requirements are relatively recent, their
interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainty. Although we
believe considerable progress has been made in the promulgation of laws and
regulations dealing with economic matters such as corporate organization and
governance, foreign investment, commerce and taxation, the legal effect of
various arrangements, contracts and actions or lack thereof, such as (i) impact
of our inability to date to fully fund the US$12,000,000 commitment to Tengtu
United, (ii) the enforceability of the provisions of our strategic alliance with
Microsoft China, and (iii) the enforceability of the TIC Beijing co-production
agreements and the legal effect and scope of our various licenses, cannot be
determined with certainty at this time. Also, at the present time governmental
policies are more important than rules of law. Governmental policies are subject
to rapid change, which could adversely affect the Company's operations in the
P.R.C. In view of the foregoing, Chinese counsel has not been retained to pass
on these matters.

                        FINANCIAL UNCERTAINTIES UNDER THE
                      CURRENT CHINESE BUDGETARY CONSTRAINTS

At the present time, many schools, especially those in the rural areas, do not
have sufficient funds to purchase the appropriate computer hardware and the
related costs of establishing a local area network. Also, at the present time,
the central and most of the provincial and local governments are unwilling to
raise taxes to adequately fund the institution of information technology in all

<PAGE>

of the schools, which the central government has mandated must have at least one
computer classroom by the end of 2005. With respect to that category of
potential purchasers of the Total Solution, which is also marketed in the PRC as
the Web Classroom, the Company has worked out a program with the government in
an attempt to enable the schools to purchase the necessary infrastructure to
utilize its computer software in the schools. This involves the following plan.
The central government will fund a portion of the costs. The provincial and
local governments will also fund a portion. Together, the Company estimates that
the governmental sources will fund approximately 50%-60% of these costs. The
Company has been advised that bank financing will be available for the
difference, if the banks are satisfied that they will be repaid. In that
connection, the central government has recently authorized certain provinces and
local governments within those provinces to assess an information technology use
tax on the parents of the school children to fund information technology in the
school system. Because this involves an annual tax per student, the Company and
the central government believe that the Chinese families, especially with the
one child per family rule, have sufficient funds and motivation to pay this tax.
The inability to properly fund the necessary infrastructure would have a
material and adverse effect on the Company's sale of the Web Classroom, the
Digital Library and other educational software products that it may develop.

With respect to schools that already have the necessary infrastructure, the use
of the Company's software will be dependent on appropriate teacher training. In
addition to Microsoft's commitment to provide such training, the central
government is administering a program bringing in teachers from the rural areas
and training them on computer use, in general, and the Web Classroom, in
particular. In the event that the government were to discontinue this program,
there would be an insufficient number of trained teachers to operate the Web
Classroom and/or teach other teachers at their school on how to operate the Web
Classroom, thus adversely affecting the Company's potential sales of educational
software to the Chinese schools.

                   ADDITIONAL RULES OF DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA

Through our subsidiaries and joint venture we conduct a substantial portion of
our operations in the PRC subject to licenses granted by the Chinese government.
Accordingly, we are subject to special considerations and significant risks not
typically associated with investment in equity securities of United States and
Western European companies. These include the risks associated with, among
others, the political, economic, and legal environments and foreign currency
exchange. As a result, the development, production and distribution of our
products in the PRC may be adversely affected by changes in the political and
social conditions in the PRC and by, among other things, changes in governmental
policies and changes in key personnel at the Ministries of Information and
Technology and Education.

                   ONE OF THE TORCH PROJECTS HAS NOT YET BEEN
                        FORMALLY AWARDED TO TENGTU UNITED

The General School Networking System Torch Project was awarded to Tengtu China
by the Chinese Government. However, the Chinese Government has not yet given its
formal written approval of the General School Networking System to Tengtu
United. While Tengtu United anticipates that it will receive formal written
approval, there is no assurance this approval will be obtained.

<PAGE>

                  TENGTU CHINA'S ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING LICENSE
                          HAS NOT FORMALLY BEEN RENEWED

Tengtu China's electronic publishing license was granted by the Chinese Bureau
of News on December 1, 1998, is for one year, and is renewable each year
thereafter upon approval from the Chinese Government. A renewal application has
been filed and is still pending as of October, 2000. While Tengtu China has
received verbal assurances that the license has been renewed, no formal written
renewal has been received. Therefore, there is no guarantee that the verbal
renewal is effective. In addition, until the Company raises additional capital,
it will not be able to participate in any meaningful way with Tengtu Electronic
Publishing.

                   DEPENDENCE UPON CHINESE GOVERNMENT FUNDING

Although the Chinese Ministry of Education and certain of the provinces are
currently committed to providing some of the necessary funding for rural K-12
schools to purchase computer hardware and software. However, there can be no
guarantee that this commitment will continue or that the necessary funds will
continue to be available.

                   LACK OF SIGNIFICANT COMPUTER INFRASTRUCTURE

One of the reasons for our prior operating losses was that the software programs
developed by us could not be sold in sufficient volume because there was no
application software platform in the schools to enable teachers and students to
utilize those programs. In addition, we found that the school systems lacked
adequate computer hardware, networks and appropriate teacher familiarity and
training. As a result, this joint venture is working with the Chinese Ministries
of Education and Information Technology to assist in developing an educational
computer infrastructure, especially in the rural areas, which have a population
of approximately 1.2 billion people. There is no assurance within the immediate
future that a significant portion of the PRC school system will be able to
develop the appropriate educational software infrastructure to enable developers
and/or distributors of educational software to operate profitably.

              OUR CURRENT ALLIANCES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT REVENUES

The terms of these alliances may require us and our partners to share revenues
and expenses from joint activities or for us to grant our partners licenses to
manufacture, market, and sell our products. While the leveraging of our
resources through these alliances may have a favorable effect on our financial
condition the sharing of revenues may have a negative effect on our results of
operations.

               WE HAVE LIMITED EXPERIENCE IN DIRECTLY SELLING AND
               MARKETING OUR PRODUCTS IN THE PRC AND HONG KONG AND
             MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXPAND AND SUPERVISE A DIRECT SALES
             AND MARKETING FORCE THAT CAN MEET OUR CUSTOMERS' NEEDS

<PAGE>

Outside the Beijing metropolitan area, the central government is currently
either purchasing the Total Solution directly or through its recommendation of
this product working directly with the provincial and local governmental
education departments. We have limited experience in direct marketing, sales and
distribution and the educational software market is new and developing in the
PRC. Our future profitability will depend, in part, on our ability to expand and
supervise a direct sales and marketing force or distributors to sell these
products to our customers and the training and reliability of distributors if
the government ceases to assist in the marketing and sale of our products. In
that event, we may not be able to attract and retain qualified salespeople or be
able to build an efficient and effective sales and marketing force. Failure to
attract or retain qualified salespeople or to build an efficient and effective
sales and marketing force in the PRC could negatively impact sales of our
products, thus reducing our revenues and profitability.

Conducting business in foreign countries will expose us to the risks of dealing
with foreign governmental policies, regulations, tariffs, import and export
restrictions, transportation, currency translations and taxes and local
regulations. Consummation of such foreign marketing activities could lead to
unanticipated and fluctuating expenses and revenues and sales and marketing
dislocations that are beyond our ability to control, and which could negatively
impact sales of our products, thus reducing our revenues and profitability.

                       NO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION

The Business Software Alliance estimated in 1999 that 91 percent of the software
used in PRC was pirated or stolen. There are two distinct markets for
educational software: (i) individuals and families and (ii) the educational
system. Software piracy is currently confined to the market for individual and
families because at the current time the governmental agencies insist on the use
of only authorized products. If their audits of a school disclose the use of
pirated software, the Company has been advised that the governmental funding
will be cut off and, thus, that school system will be unable to fulfill the
requirements of at least one computerized classroom per school by 2005. Absent
those governmental audits, software piracy will continue to be a major risk
because there is a lack of sufficient law enforcement and regional
protectionism.

Also, recently we became aware that certain Microsoft China components to the
Total Solution were being improperly sold into the K-12 market by some of the
Microsoft China channel managers in contravention of the terms of the strategic
alliance between us and Microsoft China. Although we believe the governmental
agencies and Microsoft China have taken the necessary steps to ensure that we
are its exclusive distributor for its products to the K-12 market, there is no
assurance that this will not reoccur or that other entities will be able to copy
all or a portion of the products we produce or distribute as software piracy is
and will continue to be a major problem in the PRC, absent this governmental
audit program of the school systems.

       THE MARKETS IN WHICH WE OPERATE ARE HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND SUBJECT
                          TO RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

A large number of companies are involved, or are becoming involved, in the
development and commercialization of products directed to the PRC K-12 market.
With respect to the development and sale of application software platforms to

<PAGE>

the K-12 market in mainland China, we are aware of the following competitors:
IBM China, Novell China and companies marketing Linux based platforms. Although
the Company believes that at the current time Tengtu China/Tengtu United is
considered the leading Chinese developer of educational software for the K-12
market, in view of its limited capital, there is no assurance that the Company
will be able to maintain its position much longer. We have no information as to
the nature and extent of their sales of applications software platforms to the
K-12 market. There are a number of domestic Chinese companies, as well as
foreign companies, which produce individual software programs which can be
utilized by teachers and students. We have no knowledge of their sales into the
K-12 market at the school and school district level, although we have been
advised that these other companies' sales of educational software in the P.R.C.
is negligible. Certain of these programs are marketed by other companies
directly to the students and their parents, but this is not the market in which
we are initially focusing. Our joint venture's actual and potential competition,
with respect to educational software programs for use in China, consists of
numerous Chinese and foreign software manufacturers.

In view of the reduced cost of hardware and software necessary for many types of
animation, there are now a number of small independent companies with lower
overhead which can produce products of almost equal quality at lower costs. TIC
Beijing is thus in the process of emphasizing its ability to act as a producer
in addition to its production services TIC Beijing recently rented out its
facilities and personnel until September 2001 to an unaffiliated third party.
However, it has retained the exclusive use of these facilities and personnel for
two days and the right to the use of these facilities and personnel when the
lessee is not using them, thus, enabling TIC Beijing to furnish any
post-production required by its strategic alliances. There is no assurance that
TIC Beijing or its strategic partners will be able to raise the capital required
to continue the development of these projects. There are many major producers of
animation, including Walt Disney & Co., who are larger, more experienced and
better financed. In the event TIC Beijing is unable to become a profitable
producer, it is doubtful that it can continue to compete successfully as a
production house.

The markets in which we compete and intend to compete are undergoing, and are
expected to continue to undergo, rapid and significant technological change, and
we expect competition to intensify as technological advances in such fields are
made and other companies seek to enter the PRC markets we service.

Several of our competitors have developed or may develop educational software
products that are similar in design and capability to our existing products or
products under development for markets other than the PRC. We further anticipate
that additional products for similar applications will be developed and marketed
by our competitors. Further, many of our competitors and potential competitors
have substantially greater resources, research and development staffs,
capabilities and facilities than we do for developing, manufacturing and
marketing educational software products. For our TUC joint venture, to remain
competitive we must continue to enhance and improve our existing products: the
Total Solution, the General School Networking System and Digital Library System
and to develop acceptable and useful new products fro the PRC K-12 market, of
which there is no assurance.

<PAGE>

                            POSSIBLE PAYMENT PROBLEMS

Some U.S.-based companies engaged in business in the PRC have experienced
problems in collecting money and/or in getting money out of PRC. We believe that
because education is such a high priority that under the current political
environment payment for our products and services should not be a problem.
However, if the political climate should change, the ability to promptly collect
for our products or services could materially and adversely affect our
operations.

                         WE DEPEND ON OUR KEY PERSONNEL

Because of the specialized, technical nature of our business, we are highly
dependent upon our ability to retain our current personnel, including, but not
limited to, Pak Cheung, our founder and presently our Chairman of the Board. In
addition, we believe that Jack Lian, a vice president and director, as well as
Zhang Fang Qi, are also key to our ability to successfully do business in the
PRC. The loss of any of these persons could have an adverse effect on our
business. We have no key man insurance. In addition, our ability to effectively
pursue our business strategy will depend upon, among other factors, the
successful recruitment and retention of additional highly skilled and
experienced software programmers, managerial, marketing, and accounting
personnel who can function effectively in the PRC. In some cases, the market for
these skilled employees is highly competitive, which makes it difficult to
attract and retain key employees. we cannot assure you that we will be able to
retain or recruit such personnel, and the inability to do so could materially
and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

   CERTAIN CURRENT STOCKHOLDERS OWN A LARGE PORTION OF OUR VOTING STOCK WHICH
       COULD INFLUENCE DECISIONS THAT WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT NEW INVESTORS

Our officers, directors, and affiliates beneficially own or control
approximately 30.1% of our outstanding common stock with Pak Kwan Cheung,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer controlling 16.2% of the common stock
outstanding. These stockholders may be able to influence matters requiring
stockholder approval and thereby, our management and affairs. Matters that
typically require stockholder approval include:

-          election of directors
-          mergers or consolidations
-          sales of all or substantially all of our assets

This concentration of ownership could delay or prevent another person or persons
from acquiring control or causing a change in control, even if such change would
increase the price of our common stock or the value of the company. Preventing a
change in control in favorable circumstances may affect your ability to sell
your securities at a higher price.

 WE HAVE OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND RESTRICTED SECURITIES OUTSTANDING WHICH MAY CAUSE
             DILUTION OF OUR SHAREHOLDERS AND ADVERSELY AFFECT THE
                        MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK

As of September 30, 2000 we had outstanding 1,600,000 warrants. 1,500,000 of
those warrants have an exercise price of $0.50. The exercise price of those
warrants is to increase to $1.00 after December 21, 2000, $2.00 after December
21, 2001 and $4.00 after December 21, 2002. As of September 30, 2000 we also had

<PAGE>

outstanding 2,600,000 options with exercise prices ranging from $0.218-$0.968.
We have reserved additional shares for issuance pursuant to options. If the
holders exercise these stock options and warrants, it will dilute the percentage
ownership interest of our current shareholders. In addition, the terms upon
which we would be able to obtain additional money through the sale of our stock
may be negatively affected by the existence of these warrants and options
because new investors may be concerned about the impact upon the future market
price of our common stock if these warrants and options were exercised and the
underlying stock sold.

In addition, as of September 30, 2000 we had outstanding a $1,500,000 principal
amount of a convertible debenture. Each $1.00 principal amount is convertible
into shares of common stock at the rate of $0.50 per share until December
21,2000. For each of the following twelve month periods, the rate of conversion
increases to $1.00 then $2.00 and then $4.00 per share. If converted on
September 30, 2000, the Convertible Debenture would have been convertible into 3
million shares of common stock. If the holder converts its convertible debenture
into common stock, it will dilute the percentage ownership interest of our
current shareholders, but there will be an increase in the net tangible book
value per share.

Certain holders of common stock and securities convertible into or exercisable
for shares of common stock have certain registration rights under a registration
rights agreement among us and such holders.

                THE EXERCISE OF OUR PUT RIGHTS MAY SUBSTANTIALLY
                 DILUTE THE INTERESTS OF OTHER SECURITY HOLDERS

The common stock issuable to Swartz upon exercise of our put rights will be
issued at a price equal to the lesser of (i) the market price for each share of
our common stock minus $.075 or (ii) 92% of the market price for each share of
our common stock, unless the Company exercises its right to designate a price in
advance, in which case the price can be no lower than the lesser of (iii) 80% of
the closing bid price on the day preceding delivery of advance notice or (iv)
the closing bid price on the day preceding delivery of advance notice minus
$0.125. Accordingly, the exercise of our put rights may result in substantial
dilution to the interests of the other holders of our common stock. Depending on
the price per share of our common stock during the three year period of the
investment agreement, we may need to register additional shares for resale to
access the full amount of financing available, which could have a further
dilutive effect on the value of our common stock. If we are unable to register
the additional shares of common stock, we may experience delays in, or be unable
to, access some of the $30 million available pursuant to our put rights.

<PAGE>

                THE SALE OF MATERIAL AMOUNTS OF OUR COMMON STOCK
                 COULD REDUCE THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND
                              ENCOURAGE SHORT SALES

If and when we sell shares of our common stock to Swartz pursuant to our put
rights, if and to the extent that Swartz sells the common stock, our common
stock price may decrease due to the additional shares in the market. If the
price of our common stock decreases, and if we decide to exercise our right to
put shares to Swartz, we will be required to issue more shares of our common
stock for any given dollar amount invested by Swartz, subject to a designated
minimum put price specified by us. This may encourage short sales, which could
place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock.

                           OUR STOCK PRICE IS VOLATILE

Future announcements concerning results of our sales efforts in China or
financing for TIC Beijing production projects or our competitors' sales of
competitive products in the PRC, other evidence of the acceptance of our
products or our competitors, announcements of technological innovations or new
products by us or our competitors, changes in governmental regulations, changes
in governmental personnel, developments in our proprietary and distributionship
rights or those of our competitors, including competitors litigation,
fluctuations in our operating results and changes in market conditions for K-12
educational and animation software could cause the market price of the common
stock to fluctuate substantially. These fluctuations, as well as general
economic, political and market conditions, may adversely affect the market price
of the common stock. Historically, the market price of the common stock has been
volatile.

Our quarterly and annual operating revenues, expenses, and operating results may
fluctuate. They have varied widely in the past, and we expect they will continue
to fluctuate in the future. Fluctuations in quarterly and annual results will
also adversely impact management's ability to accurately project the available
revenue necessary for growing our sales and revenue through internal funding.
Because we have a limited operating history and our future operating results may
be below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, the market price
of our common stock may decline.

                     WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. We
currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and
expansion of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the
foreseeable future.

                SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements made in the Transaction Documents constitute
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to the safe harbor
provisions of the reform act. Forward-looking statements may be identified by
the use of terminology such as may, will, expect, anticipate, intend, believe,
estimate, should, or continue or the negatives of these terms or other
variations on these words or comparable terminology. To the extent that the
Transaction Documents contain forward-looking statements regarding the financial

<PAGE>

condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of our
company, you should be aware that our actual financial condition, operating
results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or
estimated by us in the forward-looking statements. We have attempted to
identify, in context, some of the factors that we currently believe may cause
actual future experience and results to differ from their current expectations.
These differences may be caused by a variety of factors, including but not
limited to adverse economic conditions, intense competition, including entry of
new competitors, ability to obtain sufficient financing to support our
operations, progress in research and development activities, variations in costs
that are beyond our control, changes in capital expenditure budgets for cable
companies, adverse government regulation, inadequate capital, unexpected costs,
lower sales and net income, or higher net losses than forecasted, price
increases for equipment, inability to raise prices, failure to obtain new
customers, the possible fluctuation and volatility of our operating results and
financial condition, inability to carry out marketing and sales plans, loss of
key executives, and other specific risks that may be alluded to in the
Transaction Documents.

                                    AGREEMENT

           THIS AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into as of October 25,
2000, by and among TENGTU INTERNATIONAL CORP., a corporation duly organized and
existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Company") and Swartz
Private Equity, LLC (hereinafter referred to as "Swartz").

                                    RECITALS:

           WHEREAS, pursuant to the Company's offering ("Equity Line") of up to
Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000), excluding any funds paid upon exercise of
the Warrants, of Common Stock of the Company pursuant to that certain Investment
Agreement (the "Investment Agreement") between the Company and Swartz dated on
or about October 25, 2000, the Company has agreed to sell and Swartz has agreed
to purchase, from time to time as provided in the Investment Agreement, shares
of the Company's Common Stock for a maximum aggregate offering amount of Thirty
Million Dollars ($30,000,000); and

           WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, the
Company has agreed, among other things, to issue to Swartz Commitment Warrants,
as defined in the Investment Agreement, to purchase a number of shares of Common
Stock, exercisable for five (5) years from their respective dates of issuance.

                                     TERMS:

           NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises,
representations, warranties, covenants and conditions set forth in Agreement and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. ISSUANCE OF COMMITMENT WARRANTS. As compensation for entering into
the Equity Line, Swartz received a warrant convertible into 1,200,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock, in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A (the
"Commitment Warrants").

2. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL WARRANTS. On each six month anniversary of the date of
execution by the Company and the Investor of the Investment Agreement (each, a
"Six Month Anniversary Date"), the Company shall issue to the Investor
additional warrants (the "Additional Warrants"), to purchase a number of shares
of Common Stock, if necessary, such that the sum of the number of Commitment
Warrants and the number of Additional Warrants issued to Investor shall equal at
least "Y%" of the number of fully diluted shares of Common Stock of the Company
on such Six Month Anniversary Date, where "Y" shall initially equal 4.0%, and
shall be reduced by 0.5% for each Six Month Anniversary Date after the first Six
Month Anniversary Date. The Additional Warrants shall initially be exercisable
at the same price as the Commitment Warrants (as most recently reset), shall
have the same reset provisions as the Commitment Warrants (which resets shall
occur on each six month anniversary of the date of issuance of the applicable
Additional Warrant throughout the term of the applicable Additional Warrant),
shall have piggyback registration rights and shall have a 5-year term.

3. OPINION OF COUNSEL. Concurrently with the issuance and delivery of the
Commitment Opinion (as defined in the Investment Agreement) to the Investor, or
on the date that is six (6) months after the date of this Agreement, whichever
is sooner, the Company shall deliver to the Investor an Opinion of Counsel
(signed by the Company's independent counsel) covering the issuance of the
Commitment Warrants and the Additional Warrants, and the issuance and resale of
the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Additional
Warrants.

4. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia applicable to agreements made
in and wholly to be performed in that jurisdiction, except for matters arising
under the Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which matters shall be
construed and interpreted in accordance with such laws.

           IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Agreement as
of this 25th day of October, 2000.

           Facsimile: (818) 502-0674

Dear Mr. Tilton:

           This letter shall serve as our irrevocable authorization and
direction to you (provided that you are the transfer agent of the Company at
such time) to issue shares of Tengtu International Corp.'s ("Tengtu") $.01 par
value per share common stock ("Common Stock") pursuant to an Investment
Agreement between Tengtu and Swartz Private Equity, L.L.C. ("Swartz") dated
October __, 2000 (the "Investment Agreement") from time to time, and deliver
such shares to an escrow agent as instructed by the Company, upon surrender to
you of (i) a letter from the Company, instructing you to issue a specified
number of shares of Common Stock to Swartz or its designee and (ii) an opinion
of counsel authorizing such issuance in a form that complies with U.S. Stock
Transfer Corp.'s regulations.

           So long as you have previously received either: (A)(i) written
confirmation in an opinion letter from counsel to Tengtu (which counsel may be
in-house legal counsel) that a registration statement covering resales of the
Common Stock issued under the Investment Agreement has been declared effective
by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and therefore, certificates issued need not bear a restrictive legend,
or (B) written confirmation in an opinion letter from counsel to Tengtu (which
counsel may be in-house legal counsel), acceptable to U.S. Stock Transfer Corp.,
that a public sale or transfer of the Common Stock issued under the Investment
Agreement may be properly made without registration under the Act, and/or the
regulations promulgated thereunder, and therefore, certificates issued need not
bear a restrictive legend ((A) or (B) above, as applicable, is referred to as a
"Confirmation"), certificates representing the Common Stock shall not bear any
legend restricting transfer of such stock and should not be subject to any
stop-transfer restriction.

           If you have not previously received Confirmation, and if instructed
to do by Tengtu and you receive a supporting opinion letter from Tengtu's
counsel, then the Common Stock issued under the Investment Agreement, and the
certificates representing such Common Stock shall be issued with the following
legend:

           "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, THE SECURITIES
           REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
           IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE
           SECURITIES UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS UNLESS OFFERED, SOLD OR
           TRANSFERRED UNDER AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION
           REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE LAWS."

           1.        DATE OF ISSUANCE AND TERM.
                     --------------------------

           This Warrant shall be deemed to be issued on September 7, 2000 ("Date
of Issuance"). The term of this Warrant is five (5) years from the Date of
Issuance.

           Of this Warrant to purchase one million two hundred thousand
(1,200,000) shares of Common Stock of the Company, the Warrant is exercisable as
to four hundred thousand (400,000) shares of Common Stock of the Company after
the fifteen (15) business day document review period (the "Review Period")
referenced in the Equity Line Letter of Agreement dated on or about September 7,
2000, between Holder and Company (the "Letter of Agreement") has ended, shall be
further exercisable as to an additional four hundred thousand (400,000) shares
of Common Stock of the Company upon the execution by the Company and Swartz
Private Equity, LLC of an Investment Agreement, pursuant to the Letter of
Agreement ("Investment Agreement") and shall be further exercisable as to the
remaining four hundred thousand (400,000) shares of Common Stock of the Company
upon the earlier of (i) the date of effectiveness of Company's registration
statement (the "Registration Statement") to be filed pursuant to the Investment
Agreement and related documents, or (ii) March 7, 2001.

<PAGE>

           Anything in this Warrant to the contrary notwithstanding, if the
Company delivers written notice to Swartz Private Equity, LLC prior to the
expiration of the Review Period that the legal documents for the transaction
contemplated by the Letter of Agreement are unacceptable and the Company wishes
to terminate the transaction (a "Company Termination Notice"), Holder shall
return this Warrant to the Company and all of Holder's rights under this Warrant
shall be null and void and of no effect. Anything in this Warrant to the
contrary notwithstanding, if Swartz Private Equity, LLC delivers written notice
to the Company prior to the expiration of the Review Period that it has elected
not to proceed with its obligations under the Letter of Agreement (the "Due
Diligence Notice"), this Warrant shall become null and void and Swartz Private
Equity, LLC shall return it to the Company. If the Company has not delivered a
Company Termination Notice to Swartz Private Equity, LLC, and Swartz Private
Equity, LLC has not delivered a Due Diligence Notice to the Company, prior to
the expiration of the Review Period, ownership of this Warrant shall irrevocably
vest to the Holder, regardless of whether a Company Termination Notice is
delivered anytime thereafter.

           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the applicable
portion of this Warrant shall not be exercisable during any time that, and only
to the extent that, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder
upon such exercise, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock, if any,
that the Holder otherwise beneficially owns at the time of such exercise, would
equal or exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding,
as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (the "4.99%
Limitation"). The 4.99% Limitation shall be conclusively satisfied if the
applicable Exercise Notice includes a signed representation by the Holder that
the issuance of the shares in such Exercise Notice will not violate the 4.99%
Limitation, and the Company shall not be entitled to require additional
documentation of such satisfaction.

           2.        EXERCISE.
                     --------

           (A) MANNER OF EXERCISE. During the Exercise Period, this Warrant may
be exercised as to all or any lesser number of full shares of Common Stock
covered hereby (the "Warrant Shares") upon surrender of this Warrant, with the
Exercise Form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A (the "Exercise Form") duly completed
and executed, together with the full Exercise Price (as defined below) for each
share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is exercised, at the office of
the Company, Attention: Pak Kwan Cheung, Chairman & CEO, Tengtu International
Corp., 206-5050 Kingsway, Burnaby, BC, Canada, V5H 4H2; Telephone: (604)
438-9827, Facsimile: (604) 439-9869, or at such other office or agency as the
Company may designate in writing, by overnight mail, with an advance copy of the
Exercise Form sent to the Company and its Transfer Agent by facsimile (such
surrender and payment of the Exercise Price hereinafter called the "Exercise of
this Warrant").

           (B) DATE OF EXERCISE. The "Date of Exercise" of the Warrant shall be
defined as the date that the advance copy of the completed and executed Exercise
Form is sent by facsimile to the Company, provided that the original Warrant and
Exercise Form are received by the Company as soon as practicable thereafter.
Alternatively, the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date the original
Exercise Form is received by the Company, if Holder has not sent advance notice
by facsimile.

           (C) DELIVERY OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK UPON EXERCISE. Upon any
exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
deliver, or shall cause its transfer agent to deliver, a stock certificate or
certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock into which this
Warrant was exercised, within three (3) trading days of the date that all of the
following have been received by the Company: (i) the original completed and

<PAGE>

executed Exercise Form, (ii) the original Warrant and (iii) the Exercise Price
(if applicable)(collectively, the "Receipt Date"). Such stock certificates shall
not contain a legend restricting transfer if a registration statement covering
the resale of such shares of Common Stock is in effect at the time of such
exercise or if such shares of Common Stock may be resold by the Holder pursuant
to an exemption from registration, including but not limited to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"). The Holder shall be responsible for
submitting documentation, reasonably satisfactory to the Company's counsel,
demonstrating availability of such exemption from registration justifying
issuance without a restrictive legend in the event that a registration statement
covering the resale of such shares is not in effect.

           (D) ECONOMIC LOSS DUE TO LATE DELIVERY OF SHARES. If the Company
fails for any reason to deliver the requisite number of shares of Common Stock
(unlegended, if so required by the terms of this Warrant)(the "Warrant Shares")
to a Holder upon an exercise of this Warrant within fifteen (15) business days
of the Receipt Date (the "Late Delivery Deadline"), the Company shall pay such
Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to Holder) an amount equal
to ("Non-Delivery Payment") the number of Warrant Shares for which delivery is
late, multiplied by the difference of:

                     (x) the highest closing price for the Company's Common
                     Stock for any trading day during the period beginning on
                     and including the Date of Exercise and ending on the
                     earlier of (i) the date that the Investor receives from the
                     Company certificates (unlegended, if so required by the
                     terms of this Warrant) representing the Warrant Shares of
                     Common Stock issuable in conjunction with such Exercise, or
                     (ii) the date that the Investor receives the full amount of
                     the Non-Delivery Payment, whichever is earlier,

<PAGE>

                     minus

                     (y) the Exercise Price per share (which, in the case of a
                     Cashless Exercise, shall be deemed to equal zero), or, if
                     the Investor has received the Warrant Shares (unlegended,
                     if so required by the terms of this Warrant) from the
                     Company prior to the payment of the Non-Delivery Payment,
                     the lowest closing price of the Company's Common Stock for
                     the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date
                     that such Warrant Shares are delivered to the Holder.

Non-Delivery Payments shall be payable, in cash or cash equivalent, within five
(5) business days of the Late Delivery Deadline.

            (E) LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE
THAT THE SUMS PAYABLE AS NON-DELIVERY PAYMENTS SHALL GIVE RISE TO LIQUIDATED
DAMAGES AND NOT PENALTIES. THE PARTIES FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT (I) THE AMOUNT
OF LOSS OR DAMAGES LIKELY TO BE INCURRED BY THE HOLDER IS INCAPABLE OR IS
DIFFICULT TO PRECISELY ESTIMATE, (II) THE AMOUNTS SPECIFIED BEAR A REASONABLE
PROPORTION AND ARE NOT PLAINLY OR GROSSLY DISPROPORTIONATE TO THE PROBABLE LOSS
LIKELY TO BE INCURRED BY THE INVESTOR, AND (III) THE PARTIES ARE SOPHISTICATED
BUSINESS PARTIES AND HAVE BEEN REPRESENTED BY SOPHISTICATED AND ABLE LEGAL AND
FINANCIAL COUNSEL AND NEGOTIATED THIS AGREEMENT AT ARM'S LENGTH.

           (F) CANCELLATION OF WARRANT. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the
Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise,
Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares
purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not
exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant (containing
terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this
Warrant in addition to such Common Stock.

           (G) HOLDER OF RECORD. Each person in whose name any Warrant for
shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be the
Holder of record of such shares on the Date of Exercise of this Warrant,
irrespective of the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the
Exercise of this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as
conferring upon Holder any rights as a stockholder of the Company.

           3.        PAYMENT OF WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE.
                     ---------------------------------

           The Exercise Price per share ("Exercise Price") shall initially equal
(the "Initial Exercise Price") the average Closing Price for the five (5)
trading days immediately preceding September 7, 2000, which is $1.231. If the
average Closing Price of the Company's Common Stock for the five (5) trading
days immediately preceding the date, if any, that Swartz Private Equity, LLC
executes an Investment Agreement pursuant to the Letter of Agreement (the
"Closing Market Price") is less than the Initial Exercise Price, the Exercise
Price shall be reset to equal the Closing Market Price, or, if the Date of
Exercise is more than six (6) months after the Date of Issuance, the Exercise
Price shall be reset to equal the lesser of (i) the Exercise Price then in
effect, or (ii) the "Lowest Reset Price," as that term is defined below. The
Company shall calculate a "Reset Price" on each six-month anniversary date of
the Date of Issuance which shall equal the average Closing Price of the
Company's Common Stock for the five (5) trading days ending on such six-month
anniversary date of the Date of Issuance. The "Lowest Reset Price" shall equal
the lowest Reset Price determined on any six-month anniversary date of the Date
of Issuance preceding the Date of Exercise, taking into account, as appropriate,
any adjustments made pursuant to Section 5 hereof.

           For purposes hereof, the term "Closing Price" shall mean the closing
price on the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the National Market System ("NMS"), the
New York Stock Exchange, or the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, or if no longer traded on
the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the National Market System ("NMS"), the New York
Stock Exchange, or the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, the "Closing Price" shall equal
the closing price on the principal national securities exchange or the
over-the-counter system on which the Common Stock is so traded and, if not
available, the mean of the high and low prices on the principal national
securities exchange on which the Common Stock is so traded.

           Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following,
 or a combination thereof, at the election of Holder:

           (i)    CASH EXERCISE: cash, bank or cashiers check or wire transfer;
 or

           (ii) CASHLESS EXERCISE: The Holder, at its option, may exercise this
Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction. In order to effect a Cashless
Exercise, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant at the principal office of the
Company together with notice of cashless election, in which event the Company
shall issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the
following formula:

                                  X = Y (A-B)/A

     where:    X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.

           Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
               being exercised.

           A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for purposes
           of this Section 3(ii), the "Market Price" shall be defined as the
           average Closing Price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading
           days prior to the Date of Exercise of this Warrant (the "Average
           Closing Price"), as reported by the O.T.C. Bulletin Board, National
           Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System
           ("Nasdaq") Small Cap Market, or if the Common Stock is not traded on
           the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, the Average Closing Price in any other
           over-the-counter market; provided, however, that if the Common Stock
           is listed on a stock exchange, the Market Price shall be the Average
           Closing Price on such exchange for the five (5) trading days prior to
           the date of exercise of the Warrants. If the Common Stock is/was not
           traded during the five (5) trading days prior to the Date of
           Exercise, then the closing price for the last publicly traded day
           shall be deemed to be the closing price for any and all (if
           applicable) days during such five (5) trading day period.

           B = the Exercise Price.

           For purposes of Rule 144 and sub-section (d)(3)(ii) thereof, it is
intended, understood and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to
have been acquired at the time this Warrant was issued. Moreover, it is
intended, understood and acknowledged that the holding period for the Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction
shall be deemed to have commenced on the date this Warrant was issued.

           4.        TRANSFER AND REGISTRATION.
                     -------------------------

           (a) TRANSFER RIGHTS. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this
Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, in whole
or in part, in person or by attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly
completed and endorsed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and,
as soon as practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made
shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of this
Warrant transferred, and Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant as to
the portion hereof retained.

<PAGE>

           (b) REGISTRABLE SECURITIES. In addition to any other registration
rights of the Holder, if the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
is not registered for resale at the time the Company proposes to register
(including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for
stockholders other than the Holders) any of its Common Stock under the Act
(other than a registration relating solely for the sale of securities to
participants in a Company stock plan or a registration on Form S-4 promulgated
under the Act or any successor or similar form registering stock issuable upon a
reclassification, upon a business combination involving an exchange of
securities or upon an exchange offer for securities of the issuer or another
entity)(a "Piggyback Registration Statement"), the Company shall cause to be
included in such Piggyback Registration Statement ("Piggyback Registration") all
of the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant ("Registrable
Securities") to the extent such inclusion does not violate the registration
rights of any other securityholder of the Company granted prior to the date
hereof. Nothing herein shall prevent the Company from withdrawing or abandoning
the Piggyback Registration Statement prior to its effectiveness.

           (c) LIMITATION ON OBLIGATIONS TO REGISTER UNDER A PIGGYBACK
REGISTRATION. In the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to an
underwritten public offering by the Company, if the managing underwriter
determines and advises in writing that the inclusion in the registration
statement of all Registrable Securities proposed to be included would interfere
with the successful marketing of the securities proposed to be registered by the
Company, then the number of such Registrable Securities to be included in the
Piggyback Registration Statement, to the extent such Registrable Securities may
be included in such Piggyback Registration Statement, shall be allocated among
all Holders who had requested Piggyback Registration pursuant to the terms
hereof, in the proportion that the number of Registrable Securities which each
such Holder seeks to register bears to the total number of Registrable
Securities sought to be included by all Holders. If required by the managing
underwriter of such an underwritten public offering, the Holders shall enter
into a reasonable agreement limiting the number of Registrable Securities to be
included in such Piggyback Registration Statement and the terms, if any,
regarding the future sale of such Registrable Securities.

           5.        ANTI-DILUTION ADJUSTMENTS.
                     -------------------------

           (a) STOCK DIVIDEND. If the Company shall at any time declare a
dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, then Holder, upon Exercise of this
Warrant after the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive such dividend, shall be entitled to receive upon Exercise of
this Warrant, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock as to which
this Warrant is exercised, such additional shares of Common Stock as such Holder
would have received had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such
record date and the Exercise Price will be proportionately adjusted.

           (b)       RECAPITALIZATION OR RECLASSIFICATION.

                     (i) STOCK SPLIT. If the Company shall at any time effect a
recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of such
character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become
exchangeable for a LARGER number of shares (a "Stock Split"), then upon the
effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall
be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in
direct proportion to the increase in the number of shares of Common Stock by
reason of such recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction, and
the Exercise Price shall be proportionally decreased.

                     (ii) REVERSE STOCK SPLIT. If the Company shall at any time
effect a recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of such
character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become
exchangeable for a SMALLER number of shares (a "Reverse Stock Split"), then upon
the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder
shall be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be
proportionately decreased and the Exercise Price shall be proportionally
increased. The Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders
of Common Stock of any transaction described in this Section 5(b).

<PAGE>

           (c) DISTRIBUTIONS. If the Company shall at any time distribute for no
consideration to holders of Common Stock cash, evidences of indebtedness or
other securities or assets (other than cash dividends or distributions payable
out of earned surplus or net profits for the current or preceding years) then,
in any such case, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon Exercise of this
Warrant, with respect to each share of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise,
the amount of cash or evidences of indebtedness or other securities or assets
which Holder would have been entitled to receive with respect to each such share
of Common Stock as a result of the happening of such event had this Warrant been
exercised immediately prior to the record date or other date fixing shareholders
to be affected by such event (the "Determination Date") or, in lieu thereof, if
the Board of Directors of the Company should so determine at the time of such
distribution, a reduced Exercise Price determined by multiplying the Exercise
Price on the Determination Date by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
result of such Exercise Price reduced by the value of such distribution
applicable to one share of Common Stock (such value to be determined by the
Board of Directors of the Company in its discretion) and the denominator of
which is such Exercise Price.

           (d) NOTICE OF CONSOLIDATION OR MERGER AND WARRANT EXCHANGE. The
Company shall not, at any time after the date hereof, effect a merger,
consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other
similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into
the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes
of stock or securities or other assets of the Company or another entity or there
is a sale of all or substantially all the Company's assets (a "Corporate
Change"), unless the resulting successor or acquiring entity (the "Resulting
Entity") assumes by written instrument the Company's obligations under this
Warrant, including but not limited to the Exercise Price reset provisions as
provided herein during the term of the resultant warrants, and agrees in such
written instrument that this Warrant shall be exerciseable into such class and
type of securities or other assets of the Resulting Entity as Holder would have
received had Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such Corporate
Change, and the Exercise Price of this Warrant shall be proportionately
increased (if this Warrant shall be changed into or become exchangeable for a
warrant to purchase a smaller number of shares of Common Stock of the Resulting
Entity) or shall be proportionately decreased (if this Warrant shall be changed
or become exchangeable for a warrant to purchase a larger number of shares of
Common Stock of the Resulting Entity); provided, however, that Company may not
affect any Corporate Change unless it first shall have given thirty (30) days
notice to Holder hereof of any Corporate Change.

           (e) EXERCISE PRICE ADJUSTED. As used in this Warrant, the term
"Exercise Price" shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3
of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in subsection (a), (b),
(c) or (d) of this Section 5, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted
from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. No such
adjustment under this Section 5 shall be made unless such adjustment would
change the Exercise Price at the time by $0.01 or more; provided, however, that
all adjustments not so made shall be deferred and made when the aggregate
thereof would change the Exercise Price at the time by $0.01 or more.

           (f) ADJUSTMENTS: ADDITIONAL SHARES, SECURITIES OR ASSETS. In the
event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 5, Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to
receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then,
wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be
deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets;
and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall
be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly
equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.

<PAGE>

           6.        FRACTIONAL INTERESTS.
                     --------------------

                     No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant,
but on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder may purchase only a whole number of
shares of Common Stock. If, on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be
entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a
fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise shall be the next
higher number of shares.

           7.        RESERVATION OF SHARES.
                     ---------------------

                     The Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such
number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock
(or other securities substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be
sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price.
The Company covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly
issued, fully paid, nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights, rights
of first refusal or similar rights of any person or entity.

           8.        RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.
                     ------------------------

                     (a) REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION REQUIRED. This Warrant has
been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the
Act by virtue of Regulation D and exempt from state registration under
applicable state laws. The Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon the
Exercise of this Warrant may not be pledged, transferred, sold or assigned
except pursuant to an effective registration statement or unless the Company has
received an opinion from the Company's counsel to the effect that such
registration is not required, or the Holder has furnished to the Company an
opinion of the Holder's counsel, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, to the effect that such registration is not required; the
transfer complies with any applicable state securities laws; and, if no
registration covering the resale of the Warrant Shares is effective at the time
the Warrant Shares are issued, the Holder consents to a legend being placed on
certificates for the Warrant Shares stating that the securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act and referring to such restrictions on
transferability and sale.

<PAGE>

                     (b) ASSIGNMENT. If Holder can provide the Company with
reasonably satisfactory evidence that the conditions of (a) above regarding
registration or exemption have been satisfied, Holder may sell, transfer,
assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part. Holder
shall deliver a written notice to Company, substantially in the form of the
Assignment attached hereto as EXHIBIT B, indicating the person or persons to
whom the Warrant shall be assigned and the respective number of warrants to be
assigned to each assignee. The Company shall effect the assignment within ten
(10) business days, and shall deliver to the assignee(s) designated by Holder a
Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and terms for the appropriate number of
shares.

           9.        BENEFITS OF THIS WARRANT.
                     ------------------------

                     Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon
any person other than the Company and Holder any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under this Warrant and this Warrant shall be
for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and Holder.

           10.       APPLICABLE LAW.
                     --------------

                     This Warrant is issued under and shall for all purposes be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Georgia,
without giving effect to conflict of law provisions thereof.

           11.       LOSS OF WARRANT.
                     ---------------

                     Upon receipt by the Company of evidence of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or
destruction) of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Company,
and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.

           12.       NOTICE OR DEMANDS.
                     -----------------

Notices or demands pursuant to this Warrant to be given or made by Holder to or
on the Company shall be sufficiently given or made if sent by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and addressed, until
another address is designated in writing by the Company, to the address set
forth in Section 2(a) above. Notices or demands pursuant to this Warrant to be
given or made by the Company to or on Holder shall be sufficiently given or made
if sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage
prepaid, and addressed, to the address of Holder set forth in the Company's
records, until another address is designated in writing by Holder.

           IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Warrant as of
the ____ day of September, 2000.

                         TENGTU INTERNATIONAL CORP.
