         WHEREAS, the Company wishes to issue a warrant (the "WARRANT") to the
Purchaser to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock in connection with
Purchaser's purchase of the Note;

         WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to purchase the Note and Warrant on the

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

                  4.1 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. The Company has the corporate power and authority
to own and operate its properties and assets, to execute and deliver this
Agreement, the Warrant to be issued in connection with this Agreement, the Funds
Escrow Agreement, the Security Agreement and all other agreements referred to
herein (collectively, the "RELATED AGREEMENTS"), to issue and sell the Note and
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note (the "NOTE
SHARES"), to issue and sell the Warrant and the Warrant Shares, and to carry out
the provisions of this Agreement and the Related Agreements and to carry on its
business as presently conducted. The Company is duly qualified and is authorized
to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in all
jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its properties (both
owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for those
jurisdictions in which failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect
on the Company or its business.

                  4.2 SUBSIDIARIES. Schedule 4.2 hereto sets forth each
subsidiary of the Company, showing the jurisdiction of its incorporation or
organization and showing the percentage of each person's ownership of the
outstanding stock or other interests of such subsidiary. For the purposes of
this Agreement, "subsidiary" shall mean any corporation or other entity of which
at least a majority of the securities or other ownership interest having
ordinary voting power (absolutely or contingently) for the election of directors
or other persons performing similar functions are at the time owned directly or
indirectly by the Company and/or any of its other subsidiaries. All of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of each subsidiary have been duly authorized
and validly issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable. There are no
outstanding preemptive, conversion or other rights, options, warrants or
agreements granted or issued by or binding upon any subsidiary for the purchase
or acquisition of any shares of capital stock of any subsidiary or any other
securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the rights to
subscribe for any shares of such capital stock. Neither the Company nor any
subsidiary is subject to any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to repurchase
or otherwise acquire or retire any shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary
or any convertible securities, rights, warrants or options of the type described
in the preceding sentence. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is party to,
nor has any knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of
any shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary.

                  4.3 CAPITALIZATION; VOTING RIGHTS.

                           (a) The authorized capital stock of the Company, as
of November 8, 2002, consists of (i) 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par
value $.01 per share, 17,405,150 shares of which are issued and outstanding and
(ii) 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, none of
which are issued and outstanding. The Company will at all times have authorized
and reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for
conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrants.

                           (b) Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.3, other than
(i) the shares reserved for issuance under the Company's stock option plans; and
(ii) shares which may be granted pursuant to this Agreement and the Related
Agreements, there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights (including

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

preemptive rights and rights of first refusal) to subscribe to, call or
commitment of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights
convertible into, any shares of capital stock of the Company (such Schedule 4.3
shall provide the exercise or conversion term, exercise or conversion price,
vesting period, holders of such options, warrants or convertible securities and
the amount granted or issued to each holder). There exists no proxy or
stockholder agreements, or arrangements or agreements of any kind for the
purchase or acquisition from the Company of any of its securities. Neither the
offer, issuance or sale of any of the Note or Warrant, or the issuance of any of
the Note Shares or Warrant Shares, nor the consummation of any transaction
contemplated hereby will result in a change in the price or number of any
securities of the Company outstanding, under anti-dilution or other similar
provisions contained in or affecting any such securities.

                           (c) All issued and outstanding shares of the
Company's Common Stock (i) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are
fully paid and nonassessable and (ii) together with the offer and sale of all
convertible securities, rights, warrants, or options of the Company were issued
in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws concerning the issuance
of securities, and no stockholder has a right of rescission or damages against
the Company with respect thereto.

                           (d) The rights, preferences, privileges and
restrictions of the shares of the Common Stock are as stated in the Certificate
of Incorporation (the "CHARTER"). The Note Shares and Warrant Shares have been
duly and validly reserved for issuance. When issued in compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement and the Company's Charter, the Securities will be
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will be free of any liens or
encumbrances; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Securities may be subject to
restrictions on transfer under state and/or federal securities laws as set forth
herein or as otherwise required by such laws at the time a transfer is proposed.

                           (e) No stock plan, stock purchase, stock option or
other agreement or understanding between the Company and any holder of any
equity securities of the Company or rights to purchase equity securities of the
Company provides for acceleration or other changes in the vesting provisions or
other terms of such agreement or understanding as the result of any merger,
consolidated sale of stock or assets, change in control or any other
transaction(s) by the Company, including the transactions contemplated
hereunder.

                  4.4 AUTHORIZATION; BINDING OBLIGATIONS. All corporate action
on the part of the Company necessary for the authorization of this Agreement and
the Related Agreements to which the Company, the performance of all obligations
of the Company hereunder at the Closing and, the authorization, sale, issuance
and delivery of the Note and Warrant has been taken or will be taken prior to
the Closing and no further consent or authorization of the Company, its board of
directors or stockholders is required. The Agreement and the Related Agreements,
when executed and delivered and to the extent it is a party thereto, will be
valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with
their terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors' rights, and (b) general principles of equity that
restrict the availability of equitable or legal remedies. The sale of the Note

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

and the subsequent conversion of the Note into Note Shares are not and will not
be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not
been properly waived or complied with. The issuance of the Warrant and the
subsequent exercise of the Warrant for Warrant Shares are not and will not be
subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been
properly waived or complied with. The Note and the Warrant, when executed and
delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be valid and
binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms.

                  4.5 LIABILITIES. The Company has no material liabilities and,
to the best of its knowledge, knows of no material contingent liabilities,
except current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business and
liabilities disclosed in any Exchange Act Filings.

                  4.6 AGREEMENTS; ACTION. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.6:

the Company arising from purchase or sale agreements entered into in the
ordinary course of business), or (ii) the transfer or license of any patent,

borrowed or any other liabilities individually in excess individually or in the
aggregate, of $100,000, (iii) made any loans or advances to any person not in

ordinary course of business. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is in
default with respect to any indebtedness.

                           (c) For the purposes of subsections (a) and (b)
above, all indebtedness, liabilities, agreements, understandings, instruments,
contracts and proposed transactions involving the same person or entity

of the Company to officers, directors, stockholders or employees of the Company

violation or default of any term of its Charter or Bylaws, or of any material
provision of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, instrument or
contract to which it is party or by which it is bound or of any judgment,
decree, order or writ. The execution, delivery and performance of and compliance
with this Agreement and the Related Agreements to which it is a party, and the
issuance and sale of the Note by the Company and the other Securities by the
Company each pursuant hereto, will not, with or without the passage of time or
giving of notice, result in any such material violation, or be in conflict with
or constitute a default under any such term or provision, or result in the
creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the
properties or assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment,
forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval
applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or
properties.

                  4.12 LITIGATION. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation pending or, to the Company's knowledge, currently threatened
against the Company or any subsidiary that prevents the Company to enter into
this Agreement or the Related Agreements, or to consummate the transactions

there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened, against or involving the Company, any
subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective properties or assets.
Neither of those items listed on Schedule 4.12 might result, either individually
or in the aggregate, in any material adverse change in the assets, condition,
affairs or prospects of the Company, financially or otherwise, or any change in
the current equity ownership of the Company, nor is the Company aware that there
is any basis for any of the foregoing. The Company is not a party or subject to
the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court
or government agency or instrumentality. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation by the Company currently pending or which the Company intends to
initiate.

                  4.13 TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS. The Company has timely filed
all tax returns (federal, state and local) required to be filed by it of which
the failure to file would have a material adverse effect. All taxes shown to be
due and payable on such returns, any assessments imposed, and to the Company's
knowledge all other taxes due and payable by the Company on or before the
Closing, have been paid or will be paid prior to the time they become

plan or agreement. To the Company's knowledge, no employee of the Company, nor
any consultant with whom the Company has contracted, is in violation of any term
of any employment contract, proprietary information agreement or any other
agreement relating to the right of any such individual to be employed by, or to
contract with, the Company because of the nature of the business to be conducted
by the Company; and to the Company's knowledge the continued employment by the
Company of its present employees, and the performance of the Company's contracts
with its independent contractors, will not result in any such violation. The
Company is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract
(including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement,
or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative
agency, that would interfere with their duties to the Company. The Company has

Company, no employee of the Company has been granted the right to continued
employment by the Company or to any material compensation following termination
of employment with the Company. The Company is not aware that any officer, key
employee or group of employees intends to terminate his, her or their employment
with the Company, nor does the Company have a present intention to terminate the
employment of any officer, key employee or group of employees.

Company is not in violation in any material respect of any applicable statute,
rule, regulation, order or restriction of any domestic or foreign government or
any instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the conduct of its business
or the ownership of its properties which violation would materially and
adversely affect the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition,
operations or prospects of the Company. No governmental orders, permissions,
consents, approvals or authorizations are required to be obtained and no
registrations or declarations are required to be filed in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance of any of the
Securities, except such as has been duly and validly obtained or filed, or with
respect to any filings that must be made after the Closing, as will be filed in
a timely manner. The Company has all material franchises, permits, licenses and
any similar authority necessary for the conduct of its business as now being
conducted by it, the lack of which would materially and adversely affect the
business, properties, prospects or financial condition of the Company.

liability, fire and casualty insurance policies with coverage customary for

its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or
indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to
buy any security under circumstances that would cause the offering of the
Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by
the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent the Company
from selling the Securities pursuant to Rule 506 under the Securities Act, or
any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions. Nor will the
Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries take any action or steps that
would cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other

necessary to verify any information furnished to the Purchaser or to which the
Purchaser had access.

this investment until the Securities are sold pursuant to (i) an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) an exemption from
registration is available.

                  5.4 ACQUISITION FOR OWN ACCOUNT. Purchaser is acquiring the

occupies property if the breach of such provision could reasonably be expected
to have a material adverse effect.

                  6.11 CONFIDENTIALITY. The Company agrees that it will not
disclose, and will not include in any public announcement, the name of the
Purchaser, unless expressly agreed to by the Purchaser or unless and until such

resale subject to an effective registration statement after such Securities are
registered under the Securities Act. The Company agrees to cooperate with the
Purchaser in connection with all resales pursuant to Rule 144(d) and Rule 144(k)

                  7.2 PURCHASER'S INDEMNIFICATION. Purchaser agrees to
indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the
Company's officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons and principal

         8. CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE NOTE.

                  8.1 MECHANICS OF CONVERSION.

                           (a) Provided the Purchaser has notified the Company
of the Purchaser's intention to sell the Note Shares and the Note Shares are
included in an effective registration statement or are otherwise exempt from
registration when sold: (i) Upon the conversion of the Note or part thereof, the
Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action (including
the issuance of an opinion of counsel) to assure that the Company's transfer
agent shall issue shares of the Company's Common Stock in the name of the
Purchaser (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by the Purchaser
in accordance with Section 8.1(b) hereof and in such denominations to be
specified representing the number of Note Shares issuable upon such conversion;
and (ii) The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions
have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company's Common Stock
and that after the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined) the Note Shares
issued will be freely transferable subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act and the provisions of this Agreement, and
will not contain a legend restricting the resale or transferability of the Note
Shares.

                           (b) Purchaser will give notice of its decision to
exercise its right to convert the Note or part thereof by telecopying or
otherwise delivering an executed and completed notice of the number of shares to
be converted to the Company (the "NOTICE OF CONVERSION"). The Purchaser will not
be required to surrender the Note until the Purchaser receives a credit to the
account of the Purchaser's prime broker through the DWAC system (as defined
below), representing the Note Shares or until the Note has been fully satisfied.
Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied or delivered to the
Company in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a "CONVERSION
DATE." The Company will cause the transfer agent to transmit the shares of the
Company's Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note (and a certificate
representing the balance of the Note not so converted, if requested by
Purchaser) to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser's prime
broker with the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") through its Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission ("DWAC") system within three business days after receipt by the
Company of the Notice of Conversion (the "DELIVERY DATE").

                           (c) The Company understands that a delay in the
delivery of the Note Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 8 hereof
beyond the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Purchaser. In the
event that the Company fails to direct its transfer agent to deliver the Note
Shares to the Purchaser via the DWAC system within the time frame set forth in
Section 8.1(b) above and the Note Shares are not delivered to the Purchaser by
the Delivery Date, as compensation to the Purchaser for such loss, the Company
agrees to pay late payments to the Purchaser for late issuance of the Note
Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 8 hereof upon conversion of the
Note in the amount equal to the greater of (i) $500 per business day after the
Delivery Date or (ii) the Purchaser's actual damages from such delayed delivery.
The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately
available funds upon demand and, in the case of actual damages, accompanied by

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

reasonable documentation of the amount of such damages. Such documentation shall
show the number of shares of Common Stock the Purchaser is forced to purchase
(in an open market transaction) which the Purchaser anticipated receiving upon
such conversion, and shall be calculated as the amount by which (A) the
Purchaser's total purchase price (including customary brokerage commissions, if
any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate
principal and/or interest amount of the Note, for which such Conversion Notice
was not timely honored.

                           (d) Nothing contained herein or in any document
referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to
establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in
excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of
interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the
maximum amount permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum
shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to a Purchaser and thus
refunded to the Company.

                  8.2 MAXIMUM CONVERSION. The Purchaser shall not be entitled to
convert on a Conversion Date that amount of a Note in connection with that
number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the
number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Purchaser on a
Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso
is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership
by the Purchaser of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of
the Company on such Conversion Date. For the purposes of the immediately
preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject to
the foregoing, a Purchaser shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of only
4.99%. The Purchaser may void the limitation in this Section 8.3 upon 75 days
written notice to the Company. In addition, upon an Event of Default under the
Note, the conversion limitation in this Section 8.3 shall automatically become
null and void.

                  8.3 OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. The Company will have the option of
redeeming any outstanding principal of the Note ("OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") by
paying to the Purchaser 120% of such amount, together with accrued but unpaid
interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued or payable to the
Purchaser arising under this Agreement, Note or any other document delivered
herewith ("REDEMPTION AMOUNT") outstanding on the day notice of redemption
("NOTICE OF REDEMPTION") is delivered to a Purchaser ("REDEMPTION DATE"). A
Notice of Redemption may not be given in connection with any portion of Note for
which a Notice of Conversion has been given by the Purchaser at any time before
receipt of a Notice of Redemption or given pursuant to the following sentence.
The Purchaser may elect within five (5) business days after receipt of a Notice
of Redemption to give the Company a Notice of Conversion in connection with some
or all of the Note principal and interest which was the subject of the Notice of
Redemption. The Redemption Amount must be paid in good funds to the Purchaser no
later than the seventh (7th) business day after the Redemption Date ("OPTIONAL
REDEMPTION PAYMENT DATE"). In the event the Company fails to pay the Redemption
Amount by the Optional Redemption Payment Date, then the Redemption Notice will
be null and void. A Notice of Redemption may be given by the Company, provided

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

(i) no Event of Default as described in the Note shall have occurred or be
continuing; and (ii) the Note Shares issuable upon conversion of the full
outstanding Note principal are included for unrestricted resale in a
registration statement effective as of the Redemption Date.

                  8.4 NASDAQ APPROVAL. The Company and the Purchaser agree that
until the Company either obtains shareholder approval of the issuance of the
Securities, or an exemption from NASDAQ's corporate governance rules as they may
apply to the Securities, and an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Purchaser that NASDAQ's corporate governance rules do not conflict with nor may
result in a delisting of the Company's common stock from the NASDAQ National
Market (the "APPROVAL") upon the conversion of the Notes, the Purchaser may not
receive upon conversion of the Notes more than the number of common shares
greater than 19.9% of the shares of Company's common stock outstanding on the
Closing Date. The Company covenants to obtain the Approval required pursuant to
the NASDAQ's corporate governance rules to allow conversion of all the Notes and
interest thereon upon written request of the Purchaser (the "TRIGGER DATE"). The
Company further covenants to file the preliminary proxy statement relating to
the Approval with the Commission on or before thirty days after the Trigger Date
("PROXY FILING DATE"). The Company further covenants to obtain the Approval no
later than ninety days after the Trigger Date ("APPROVAL DATE"). The Company's
failure to (i) file the proxy on or before the Proxy Filing Date; or (ii) the
Company's failure to obtain the Approval on or before the Approval Date (each
being an "APPROVAL DEFAULT") shall be deemed an Event of Default under the Note,
but only to the extent the Note and interest thereon that may not be converted
due to the Company's failure to obtain such Approval.

         9. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

                  9.1 REGISTRATION RIGHTS GRANTED. The Company hereby grants the
following registration rights to the Purchaser.

                           (a) The Company shall file a Form S-3 registration
statement (or such other form that it is eligible to use) in order to register
the Registrable Securities for resale and distribution under the Securities Act
with the SEC within 30 days of the Closing Date (the "FILING DATE"), and cause
such registration statement to be declared effective within 120 days of the
Closing Date (the "EFFECTIVE DATE"). The Company will register not less than a
number of shares of Common Stock in the aforedescribed registration statement
that is equal to the Warrant Shares and 200% (or such lower amount as permitted
or required by the SEC) of the Note Shares issuable at the Conversion and
Purchase Prices set forth in the Note and Warrant, respectively, that would be
in effect on the Closing Date or the date of filing of such registration
statement (employing the price which would result in the greater number of
Shares), assuming the conversion of 100% of the principal amount of the Note
which is then outstanding, and at least one share of Common Stock for each
common share issuable upon exercise of the Warrant ("REGISTRABLE SECURITIES").
Such registration statement will be promptly amended or additional registration
statements will be promptly filed by the Company as necessary to register
additional Company Shares to allow the public resale of all Common Stock
included in and issuable by virtue of the Registrable Securities. No securities
of the Company other than the Registrable Securities will be included in the
registration statement described in this Section 9.1(a).

<PAGE>

                  9.2 REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. If and whenever the Company is
required by the provisions hereof to effect the registration of the Registrable
Securities under the Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

                           (a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration
statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the
distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), and promptly
provide to the Purchaser copies of all filings and SEC letters of comment;

                           (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective
until the earlier of: (i) six months after the latest exercise period of the
Warrant; (ii) four years after the Closing Date, or (iii) the date on which the
Purchaser has disposed of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement in accordance with the Purchaser's intended method of
disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period;

                           (c) furnish to the Purchaser such number of copies of
the registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each
preliminary prospectus) as the Purchaser reasonably may request to facilitate
the public sale or disposition of the securities covered by such registration
statement;

                           (d) use its commercially reasonable efforts to
register or qualify the Purchaser's Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such
jurisdictions as the Purchaser, provided, however, that the Company shall not
for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a
foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to
consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

                           (e) list the Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock of
the Company is then listed;

                           (f) immediately notify the Purchaser at any time when
a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a
result of which the prospectus contained in such 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 not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; and

                           (g) make available for inspection by the Purchaser
and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Purchaser, all
publicly available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's
officers, directors and employees to supply all publicly available,
non-confidential information reasonably requested by the attorney, accountant or
agent of the Purchaser.

                  9.3 PROVISION OF DOCUMENTS.

                           (a) In connection with each registration hereunder,
the Purchaser will furnish to the Company in writing such information and
representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by
it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal
and applicable state securities laws.

                  9.4 NON-REGISTRATION EVENTS. If (i) the Registration Statement
described in Section 9.1(a) is not filed on or before the Filing Date or not
declared effective on or before the sooner of the Effective Date, or within
three business days of receipt by the Company of a communication from the SEC
that the registration statement described in Section 9.1(a) will not be
reviewed, or (ii) if the registration statement described in Section 9.1(a) is
filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective (without
being succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and
declared effective) for a period of time which shall exceed 30 days in the
aggregate per year but not more than 20 consecutive calendar days (defined as a
period of 365 days commencing on the date the Registration Statement is declared
effective) (each such event referred to in this Section 9.4 is referred to
herein as a "NON-REGISTRATION EVENT"), then, for so long as such
Non-Registration Event shall continue, the Company shall pay in cash as
Liquidated Damages to each holder of any Registrable Securities an amount equal
to one percent (1%) per month for the first 45 days and two percent (2%) per
month thereafter (prorated for partial periods) during the pendency of such
Non-Registration Event of the principal of the Note issued in connection with
the Offering, whether or not converted, then owned of record by such holder or
issuable as of or subsequent to the occurrence of such Non-Registration Event.
Payments to be made pursuant to this Section shall be due and payable
immediately upon demand in immediately available funds. In the event a Mandatory
Redemption Payment is demanded from the Company by the holder pursuant to
Section 8.2 of this Agreement, then the Liquidated Damages described in this
Section 9.4 shall no longer accrue on the portion of the purchase price
underlying the Mandatory Redemption Payment, from and after the date the holder
receives the Mandatory Redemption Payment. It shall also be deemed a
Non-Registration Event to the extent that all the Common Stock included in the
Registrable Securities and underlying the Securities is not included in an
effective registration statement as of and after the Effective Date at the
conversion prices in effect from and after the Effective Date.

                  9.5 EXPENSES. All expenses incurred by the Company in
complying with Section 9, including, without limitation, all registration and
filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and
independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including
reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state
securities or "blue sky" laws, fees of the NASD, transfer taxes, fees of
transfer agents and registrars, fees of, and disbursements incurred by, one
counsel for the Purchaser, and costs of insurance are called "REGISTRATION
EXPENSES". All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the
sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees and disbursements of any
special counsel to the Purchaser beyond those included in Registration Expenses,
are called "SELLING EXPENSES."

                                      -22-

<PAGE>

                           The Company will pay all Registration Expenses. All
Selling Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 9
shall be borne by the Purchaser.

                  9.6 INDEMNIFICATION.

                           (a) In the event of a registration of any Registrable
Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, and its officers, directors and each
other person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of the
Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which the Purchaser, or such persons may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were
registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, any preliminary
prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement
thereof, or arise out of or are based upon 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 will reimburse the Purchaser, and
each such person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in
any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information
furnished by the Purchaser or any such person in writing specifically for use in
any such document.

                           (b) In the event of a registration of the Registrable
Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, the Purchaser will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and its officers, directors and each
other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which the Company or such persons may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were
registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, any preliminary
prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement
thereof, or arise out of or are based upon 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 will reimburse the Company and each
such person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action, provided, however, that the Purchaser will be liable in any
such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information
furnished in writing to the Company by the Purchaser specifically for use in any
such document.

                           (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying

                                      -23-

<PAGE>

party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the
omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any
liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this
Section 9.6(c) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to
such indemnified party under this Section 9.6(c) if and to the extent the
indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall
be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying
party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to
participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the
defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after
notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so
to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be
liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9.6(c) for any legal
expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof; if the indemnified party retains its own counsel, then the
indemnified party shall pay all fees, costs and expenses of such counsel,
provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it
which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying
party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to
conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties
shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal
defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the
reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related
to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.

                           (d) In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in the event of joint liability under the Securities Act in any
case in which either (i) the Purchaser, or any controlling person of the
Purchaser, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.6 but it
is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court
of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of
the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such
case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 9.6 provides for indemnification
in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on
the part of the Purchaser or controlling person of the Purchaser in
circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 9.6;
then, and in each such case, the Company and the Purchaser will contribute to
the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be
subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the
Purchaser is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that
the public offering price of its securities offered by the registration
statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such
registration statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (A) the
Purchaser will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public
offering price of all such securities offered by it pursuant to such
registration statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act) will be
entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

         10. OFFERING RESTRICTIONS. Except as previously disclosed in the SEC
Reports or in the Exchange Act Filings, or stock or stock options granted to
employees or directors of the Company; or equity or debt issued in connection
with an acquisition of a business or assets by the Company; or the issuance by

                                      -24-

<PAGE>

the Company of stock in connection with the establishment of a joint venture
partnership or licensing arrangement (these exceptions hereinafter referred to

as the "EXCEPTED ISSUANCES"), the Company will not issue any securities with a
variable/floating conversion feature which are or could be (by conversion or
registration) free-trading securities (i.e. common stock subject to a

         11. SECURITY INTEREST. As a condition of Closing, the Company will
grant to the Purchaser a security interest in its assets pursuant to a Security
Agreement. The Company will also execute all such documents reasonably necessary

the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial
by jury. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other
agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any
applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed
inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed
modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which
may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.

                  12.2 SURVIVAL. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements made herein shall survive any investigation made by the Purchaser and

other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant hereto in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be

provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be
binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of
the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each

                  12.4 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, the exhibits and
schedules hereto, the Related Agreements and the other documents delivered

except as specifically set forth herein and therein. The Purchaser shall not be
deemed to have made any representation or warranty to the Company other than as
expressly made by the Purchaser in Section 5 hereof. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding any otherwise express
representations and warranties made by the Purchaser in Section 5 hereof, the
Purchaser makes no representation or warranty to the Company with respect to the
timing or the manner in which the Company's Common Stock will be sold.

                  12.5 SEVERABILITY. In case any provision of the Agreement

omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any
breach, default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement or the
Related Agreements, shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it

acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance
thereafter occurring. All remedies, either under this Agreement, the Note or the
Related Agreements, by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be

                                 FORM OF OPINION

                  1. The Company is a corporation validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate
power and authority to own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on its
business as it is now being conducted.

                  2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority
to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Agreement and Related
Agreements. All corporate action on the part of the Company and its officers,
directors and stockholders necessary for (i) the authorization of the Agreement
and Related Agreements to which each is a party, and the performance of all
obligations of the Company thereunder at the Closing, and (ii) the
authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Securities pursuant to the
Agreement and the Related Agreements has been taken. The Note Shares and the
Warrant Shares, when issued pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the
Agreement and upon delivery, shall be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid
and non assessable.

                  3. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreement,
the Note or the Related Agreements by the Company and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by any thereof, will not, with or without the giving
of notice or the passage of time or both:

                           (a) Violate the provisions of the Charter or bylaws
of the; or

                           (b) To the best of such counsel's knowledge, violate
                  any judgment, decree, order or award of any court binding upon
                  the Company.

                  4. The Agreement and Related Agreements to which each is a
party constitute and the Note, upon their issuance will constitute, valid and
legally binding obligations of the Company, and are enforceable against the
Company in accordance with their respective terms, except (a) as limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of
general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights, and (b) general
principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable or legal
remedies.

                  5. The sale of the Note and the subsequent conversion of the
Note into Note Shares are not subject to any preemptive rights or, to such
counsel's knowledge, rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived
or complied with. The sale of the Warrant and the subsequent exercise of the
Warrant for Warrant Shares are not subject to any preemptive rights or, to such
counsel's knowledge, rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived
or complied with.

                  6. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties
of the Purchaser contained in the Agreement, the offer, sale and issuance of the
Securities will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act. To the best of such counsel's knowledge, neither the Company, nor any of
its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or

                                       C-1

<PAGE>

indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to
buy and security under circumstances that would cause the offering of the
Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by
the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent the Company
from selling the Securities pursuant to Rule 506 under the Securities Act, or
any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions.

                  7. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
pending or, to the best of such counsel's knowledge, currently threatened
against the Company that prevents the right of the Company to enter into this
Agreement or any of the Related Agreements, or to consummate the transactions
contemplated thereby. To the best of such counsel's knowledge, the Company is
not a party or subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction,
judgment or decree of any court or government agency or instrumentality; nor is
there any action, suit, proceeding or investigation by the Company currently
pending or which the Company intends to initiate.

EXHIBIT 10.2

THIS NOTE AND THE COMMON SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THIS NOTE AND THE
COMMON SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR

STATEMENT AS TO THIS NOTE UNDER SAID ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY
SATISFACTORY TO NETGURU, INC., THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

                                CONVERTIBLE NOTE
                                ----------------

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, NETGURU, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter
called the "BORROWER"), hereby promises to pay to LAURUS MASTER FUND, LTD., c/o
Ironshore Corporate Services Ltd., P.O. Box 1234 G.T., Queensgate House, South
Church Street, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, Fax: 345-949-9877 (the "HOLDER") or
its registered assigns or successors in interest, on order, without demand, the
sum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), with any accrued and unpaid interest on
December 13, 2004 (the "Maturity Date"). Capitalized terms used herein without
definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase
Agreement (as defined in Section 3.1(a) below).

                  The following terms shall apply to this Note:

                                    ARTICLE I

                                    INTEREST

                  1.1 INTEREST RATE. Interest payable on this Note shall accrue
at the annual rate of six percent (6%) and be payable in arrears commencing one
month from the date hereof and on the first business day of each consecutive
calendar month thereafter, and on the Maturity Date, accelerated or otherwise,
due and payable as described below.

                  1.2 PAYMENT GRACE PERIOD. The Borrower shall have a four (4)
day grace period to pay any monetary amounts due under this Note. During this
grace period, and thereafter until paid, a default interest rate of five percent
(5%) per annum above the then applicable interest rate hereunder shall apply to
the amounts owed hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE II

                                  AMORTIZATION

<PAGE>

                  2.1 MONTHLY PAYMENTS. Subject to the terms of this Article II,
the Borrower shall repay one-twentieth of the original principal amount of this
Note (to the extent such amount has not been converted pursuant to Article III
below), together with interest accrued to date on such portion of the original
principal amount plus any and all default payments owing under the Purchase
Agreement but not previously paid (collectively the "MONTHLY AMOUNT"), in
accordance with Section 2.2 below, on the first business day of each consecutive
calendar month (each, a "REPAYMENT DATE"), beginning on the first such day which
occurs following one hundred and twenty (120) days from the date hereof;
provided, however, that if the Borrower's Registration Statement with respect to
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to ninety (90) days
from the date hereof, then the payment the principal portion of the Monthly
Amount shall commence on the first business day of each consecutive calendar
month, beginning on the first such day which occurs following ninety (90) days
from the date hereof.

                  2.2 CASH OR COMMON STOCK. Subject to the terms hereof, the
Borrower has the sole option to determine whether to satisfy payment of the
Monthly Amount in full on each Repayment Date either in cash or in shares of
Common Stock, or a combination of both. The Borrower shall deliver to the Holder
a written irrevocable notice in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto electing
to pay such Monthly Amount in full on such Repayment Date in either cash or
Common Stock, or a combination of both ("REPAYMENT ELECTION NOTICE"). Such
Repayment Election Notice shall be delivered to the Holder at least twenty (20)
days prior to the applicable Repayment Date (the date of such notice being
hereinafter referred to as the "NOTICE DATE"). If such Repayment Election Notice
is not delivered within the prescribed period set forth in the preceding
sentence, then the repayment shall be made in either cash or shares of Common
Stock on the same terms hereunder at the Holder's sole option. If the Borrower
elects or is required to repay all or a portion of the Monthly Amount in cash on
a Repayment Date, then on such Repayment Date the Borrower shall pay to the
Holder an amount equal to 107% of the Monthly Amount in satisfaction of such
obligation. If the Borrower repays all or a portion of the Monthly Amount in
shares of Common Stock, the number of such shares to be issued for such
Repayment Date shall be the number determined by dividing (x) the portion of the
Monthly Amount to be paid in shares of Common Stock, by (y) the Conversion Price
(as defined herein) as of such date.

                  2.3 NO EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, the Borrower shall be prohibited from exercising its right to
repay the Monthly Amount in shares of Common Stock (and must deliver cash in
respect thereof) on the applicable Repayment Date if at any time from the Notice
Date until the time at which the Holder receive such shares there fails to exist
an effective registration statement or an Event of Default hereunder exists or
occurs, unless otherwise waived in writing by the Holder in whole or in part at
the Holder's option.

                  2.4 SHARE PRICE/ISSUANCE LIMITATIONS. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, if the average closing price of the Common Stock as
reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal Market for the 10 trading days
preceding a Repayment Date was less than 110% of the Fixed Conversion Price, and
the Borrower has previously elected to pay all or a portion of the Monthly
Amount in shares of Common Stock, then, the Borrower will be permitted to pay
the Monthly Amount in cash or, at the option of the Borrower, the Holder will be
permitted to convert up to the Monthly Amount that is payable in shares of
Common Stock at a mutually agreed upon conversion price. Any part of the Monthly
Amount not converted by the Borrower into shares of Common Stock by the
following Repayment Date shall be paid by the Borrower in cash on such following

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Repayment Date. At any time during the relevant month, the Borrower has the
option to pay the Monthly Amount, or the unconverted part thereof, in cash.

                  2.5 DEEMED CONVERSIONS. Any repayment of the Monthly Amount in
shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof shall constitute and be
deemed a conversion of such portion of the applicable principal amount of this
Note for all purposes under this Note and the Purchase Agreement (except as
otherwise provided herein).

                   2.6 DEEMED OWNERSHIP. In the case of the exercise of the
conversion rights or payment of the Monthly Amount set forth herein the
conversion privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised and the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion or Repayment shall be deemed to have
been issued upon the date of receipt by the Borrower of the Notice of Conversion
or Repayment Election Notice, as the case may be. The person or entity entitled
to receive Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall, on the date such
conversion privilege is deemed to have been exercised and thereafter, be treated
for all purposes as the record holder of such Common Stock.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                CONVERSION RIGHTS

                  3.1. CONVERSION INTO THE BORROWER'S COMMON STOCK.

                  (a) Subject to the provisions set forth above, the Holder
shall have the right, but not the obligation, from and after the date hereof,
and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert the principal
portion of this Note and/or interest and fees due and payable into fully paid
and nonassessable shares of common stock of the Borrower as such stock exists on
the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of the
Borrower into which such stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified (the
"COMMON STOCK") at the conversion price set forth below (the "CONVERSION
PRICE"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder will not be permitted to
convert on any Conversion Date (as defined below) an amount of shares having a
dollar value exceeding 25% of the aggregate dollar trading volume during the 30
trading days preceding such Conversion Date.

                  Upon delivery to the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion as
described in Section 8 of the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into between
the Borrower and the Holder relating to this Note (the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT") of
the Holder's written request for conversion (the date of giving such notice of
conversion being a "CONVERSION Date"), the Borrower shall issue and deliver to
the Holder within three business days from the Conversion Date that number of
shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with
the foregoing. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each
conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the
principal of the Note to be converted and interest, if any, by the Fixed
Conversion Price as of the Conversion Date. In the event of any conversions of
outstanding principal amount under this Note in part pursuant to this Article
III, such conversions shall be deemed to constitute conversions of outstanding
principal amount applying to Monthly Amounts for the Repayment Dates in

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

chronological order. By way of example, if the original principal amount of this
Note is $2,000,000 and the Holder converted $400,000 of such original principal
amount prior to the first Repayment Date, then (1) the principal amount of the
Monthly Amount due on the first Repayment Date would equal $0, (2) the principal
amount of the Monthly Amount due on the second Repayment Date would equal $0 and
(3) the principal amount of the Monthly Amount due on each of the remaining
Repayment Dates would be $200,000.

                  (b) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.1(c)
hereof, the Conversion Price per share shall be $1.60 (the "FIXED CONVERSION
PRICE"). If an Event of Default has occurred and be continuing hereunder then
the Conversion Price shall be equal to the lower of (i) the Fixed Conversion
Price; or (ii) seventy percent (70%) of the average of the three lowest closing
prices for the Common Stock on NASD OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ SmallCap Market,
NASDAQ National Market System, American Stock Exchange, or New York Stock
Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is at the time the principal trading
exchange or market for the Common Stock, the "PRINCIPAL MARKET"), or on any
securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then
being listed or traded, for the thirty (30) trading days prior to but not
including the Conversion Date.

                  (c) The Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or
other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section
3.1(a) and 3.1(b), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as
follows:

                           A. Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at
any time shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or
substantially all its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to the
unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter
be deemed to evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of shares or
other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on
account of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect
to the number of shares of Common Stock the Holder could have acquired
immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance based on the
Fixed Conversion Price or the Conversion Price, as the case may be, as of the
closing date thereof. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to
successive transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provisions of this Section
shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after any such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.

                           B. Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time
shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same
or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this Note, as to
the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall
thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of
such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result
of such change with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock into which
the Note would have been convertible immediately prior to such reclassification
or other change at the Fixed Conversion Price or the Conversion Price, as the
case may be, as of the effective date for such reclassification or change.

                           C. Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the
shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller
number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock
in shares of Common Stock, the Fixed Conversion Price or the Conversion Price,
as the case may be, shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of
shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination
of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.

                           D. Share Issuance. Subject to the provisions of this
Section, if the Borrower at any time shall issue any shares of Common Stock
prior to the conversion of the entire principal amount of the Note (otherwise
than as: (i) provided in Sections 3.1(c)A, 3.1(c)B or 3.1(c)C or this
subparagraph D; (ii) pursuant to warrants or options that may be granted in the
future under any option plan of the Borrower, or any employment agreement, joint
venture, credit, leasing or other financing agreement or any joint venture or
other strategic arrangement, in each case now or hereinafter entered into by the
Borrower; (iii) pursuant to any agreement entered into by the Company or any of
its subsidiaries for the acquisition of another business (whether by stock
purchase or asset purchase, merger or otherwise; or (iv) for services rendered
by consultants; ((i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, are hereinafter referred to as
the "EXCLUDED ISSUANCES")) for a consideration less than the Fixed Conversion
Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter
successively upon each such issue, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be reduced
as follows: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issue shall be multiplied by the Fixed Conversion Price in effect
at the time of such issue and the product shall be added to the aggregate
consideration, if any, received by the Borrower upon such issue of additional
shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the sum so obtained shall be divided by the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue. The
resulting quotient shall be the adjusted Fixed Conversion Price. Except for the
Excluded Issuances for purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security
of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security into shares of
Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall
result in an adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price upon the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights.

                  (d) During the period the conversion right exists, the
Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient
number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full
conversion of this Note. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower
agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its
officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing
and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates
for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

                  3.2 METHOD OF CONVERSION. This Note may be converted by the
Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 3.1(a) hereof and the
Purchase Agreement. Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing
the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder,
be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note
and interest which shall not have been converted or paid.

                  3.3 REQUIRED CONVERSION. The Borrower may, at its sole option,
provide the Holder irrevocable written notice ("CALL NOTICE") requiring the
conversion of all or a portion of the Note held by such Holder as of the date
set forth in such Call Notice (the "CALL DATE"), which such date shall be at
least 30 days following the date of the Call Notice, provided a registration
statement covering resales of that number of shares of Common Stock then
issuable upon conversion of this Note pursuant to such Call Notice has been
declared effective and is available for use. The amount of Common Stock to be
issued in connection with any such conversion pursuant to a particular Call

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

Notice pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall not exceed 20% of the aggregate dollar
trading volume of the Common Stock for the 22 trading days immediately preceding
the date of such Call Notice. If all of the conditions described herein have
been satisfied, no amount (either principal, interest or fees) shall be payable
after the Call Date with respect to the portion of the Note so converted and the
Borrower will cause a certificate representing the shares of Common Stock so
converted to be issued to the Holder upon receipt of a completed Notice of
Conversion as provided herein. The conversion price with respect to conversions
pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall equal the lesser of (i) the Fixed Conversion
Price and (ii) 90% of the average of the fifteen closing prices for the Common
Stock on the Principal Market during the period immediately preceding the Call
Date.
