                         SECURITY AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT

            This Security and Purchase Agreement is made as of July 26, 2005 by
and among LAURUS MASTER FUND, LTD., a Cayman Islands corporation ("Laurus"),
NATURADE, INC., a Delaware corporation ("the Parent"), and each party listed on
Exhibit A attached hereto (each an "Eligible Subsidiary" and collectively, the
"Eligible Subsidiaries") the Parent and each Eligible Subsidiary, each a
"Company" and collectively, the "Companies").

                                   BACKGROUND

            The Companies have requested that Laurus make advances available to
the Companies; and

            Laurus has agreed to make such advances on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement.

                                    AGREEMENT

            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and
undertakings and the terms and conditions contained herein, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

            1. General Definitions and Terms; Rules of Construction.

            (a) General Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement
shall have the meanings assigned to them in Annex A.

            (b) Accounting Terms. Any accounting terms used in this Agreement
which are not specifically defined shall have the meanings customarily given
them in accordance with GAAP and all financial computations shall be computed,
unless specifically provided herein, in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied.

            (c) Other Terms. All other terms used in this Agreement and defined
in the UCC, shall have the meaning given therein unless otherwise defined
herein.

            (d) Rules of Construction. All Schedules, Addenda, Annexes and
Exhibits hereto or expressly identified to this Agreement are incorporated
herein by reference and taken together with this Agreement constitute but a
single agreement. The words "herein", "hereof" and "hereunder" or other words of
similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole, including the Exhibits,
Addenda, Annexes and Schedules thereto, as the same may be from time to time
amended, modified, restated or supplemented, and not to any particular section,
subsection or clause contained in this Agreement. Wherever from the context it
appears appropriate, each term stated in either the singular or plural shall
include the singular and the plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine,
feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, the feminine and the
neuter. The term "or" is not exclusive. The term "including" (or any form
thereof) shall not be limiting or exclusive. All references to statutes and
related regulations shall include any amendments of same and any successor
statutes and regulations. All references in this Agreement or in the Schedules,
Addenda, Annexes and Exhibits to this Agreement to sections,

<PAGE>

schedules, disclosure schedules, exhibits, and attachments shall refer to the
corresponding sections, schedules, disclosure schedules, exhibits, and

Agreements shall include any and all modifications or amendments thereto and any
and all extensions or renewals thereof.

            2. Loan Facility.

            (a) Revolving Loans.

                  (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and
in the Ancillary Agreements, Laurus may make revolving loans (the " Revolving
Loans") to Companies from time to time during the Term which, in the aggregate
at any time outstanding, will not exceed the lesser of (x) (I) the Capital
Availability Amount minus (II) such reserves as Laurus may reasonably in its
good faith judgment deem proper and necessary from time to time based upon
significant business developments arising in respect of the Company and/or any
of its Account Debtors (the "Reserves"); it being understood and agreed that
Laurus shall endeavor to provide to the Company timely notice of such Reserves
and (y) an amount equal to (I) the Accounts Availability plus (II) the Inventory
Availability minus (III) the Reserves. The amount derived at any time from
Section 2(a)(i)(y)(I) plus Section 2(a)(i)(y)(II) minus 2(a)(i)(y)(III) shall be
referred to as the "Formula Amount." The Companies shall, jointly and severally,
execute and deliver to Laurus on the Closing Date the Revolving Note and a
Minimum Borrowing Note evidencing the Revolving Loans funded on the Closing
Date. From time to time thereafter, the Companies shall jointly and severally
execute and deliver to Laurus immediately prior to the final funding of each
additional $500,000 tranche of Revolving Loans allocated to any Minimum
Borrowing Note issued after the date hereof (calculated on a cumulative basis
for each such tranche) an additional Minimum Borrowing Note evidencing such
tranche, substantially in the form of the Minimum Borrowing Note delivered by
the Companies to Laurus on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, whenever during the Term the outstanding balance on the Minimum
Borrowing Note shall be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount (such amount
being referred to herein as the "Transferable Amount") to the extent that the
outstanding balance on the Revolving Note should equal or exceed $500,000, that
portion of the balance of the Revolving Note that exceeds $500,000, but does not
exceed the Transferable Amount, shall be segregated from the outstanding balance
under the Revolving Note and allocated to and aggregated with the then existing
balance of the next unissued serialized Minimum Borrowing Note (the "Next
Unissued Serialized Note"); provided that such segregated amount shall remain
subject to the terms and conditions of such Revolving Note until a new
serialized Minimum Borrowing Note is issued as set forth below. The Next
Unissued Serialized Note shall remain in book entry form until the balance
thereunder shall equal the Minimum Borrowing Amount, at which time a new
serialized Minimum Borrowing Note in the face amount equal to the Minimum
Borrowing Amount will be issued and registered as set forth in the Registration
Rights Agreement (and the outstanding balance under the Revolving Note shall at
such time be correspondingly reduced in the amount equal to the Minimum
Borrowing Amount as a result of the issuance of such new serialized Minimum
Borrowing Note).

                                       2
<PAGE>

                  (ii) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth above, if
requested by any Company, Laurus retains the right to lend to such Company from
time to time such amounts in excess of such limitations as Laurus may determine
in its sole discretion.

                  (iii) The Companies acknowledge that the exercise of Laurus'
discretionary rights hereunder may result during the Term in one or more
increases or decreases in the advance percentages used in determining Accounts
Availability and/or Inventory Availability and each of the Companies hereby
consent to any such increases or decreases which may limit or restrict advances
requested by the Companies.

                  (iv) If any interest, fees, costs or charges payable to Laurus
hereunder are not paid when due, each of the Companies shall thereby be deemed
to have requested, and Laurus is hereby authorized at its discretion to make and
charge to the Companies' account, a Loan as of such date in an amount equal to
such unpaid interest, fees, costs or charges.

                  (v) If any Company at any time fails to perform or observe any
of the covenants contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, Laurus
may, but need not, perform or observe such covenant on behalf and in the name,
place and stead of such Company (or, at Laurus' option, in Laurus' name) and
may, but need not, take any and all other actions which Laurus may deem
necessary to cure or correct such failure (including the payment of taxes, the
satisfaction of Liens, the performance of obligations owed to Account Debtors,
lessors or other obligors, the procurement and maintenance of insurance, the
execution of assignments, security agreements and financing statements, and the
endorsement of instruments). The amount of all monies expended and all costs and
expenses (including attorneys' fees and legal expenses) incurred by Laurus in
connection with or as a result of the performance or observance of such
agreements or the taking of such action by Laurus shall be charged to the
Companies' account as a Revolving Loan and added to the Obligations. To
facilitate Laurus' performance or observance of such covenants by each Company,
each Company hereby irrevocably appoints Laurus, or Laurus' delegate, acting
alone, as such Company's attorney in fact (which appointment is coupled with an
interest) with the right (but not the duty) from time to time to create,
prepare, complete, execute, deliver, endorse or file in the name and on behalf
of such Company any and all instruments, documents, assignments, security
agreements, financing statements, applications for insurance and other
agreements and writings required to be obtained, executed, delivered or endorsed
by such Company.

                  (vi) Laurus will account to Company Agent monthly with a
statement of all Loans and other advances, charges and payments made pursuant to
this Agreement, and such account rendered by Laurus shall be deemed final,
binding and conclusive unless Laurus is notified by Company Agent in writing to
the contrary within thirty (30) days of the date each account was rendered
specifying the item or items to which objection is made.

                  (vii) During the Term, the Companies may borrow and prepay
Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

                  (viii) If any Eligible Account is not paid by the Account
Debtor within ninety (90) days after the date that such Eligible Account was
invoiced or if any Account Debtor asserts a deduction, dispute, contingency,
set-off, or counterclaim with respect to any Eligible

                                       3
<PAGE>

Account, (a "Delinquent Account"), the Companies shall jointly and severally (i)
reimburse Laurus for the amount of the Loans made with respect to such
Delinquent Account plus an adjustment fee in an amount equal to one-half of one
percent (0.50%) of the gross face amount of such Eligible Account or (ii)
immediately replace such Delinquent Account with an otherwise Eligible Account.

            (b) Receivables Purchase. Following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Laurus may, at its option, elect to convert
the credit facility contemplated hereby to an accounts receivable purchase
facility. Upon such election by Laurus (subsequent notice of which Laurus shall
provide to Company Agent), the Companies shall be deemed to hereby have sold,
assigned, transferred, conveyed and delivered to Laurus, and Laurus shall be
deemed to have purchased and received from the Companies, all right, title and
interest of the Companies in and to all Accounts which shall at any time
constitute Eligible Accounts (the "Receivables Purchase"). All outstanding Loans
hereunder shall be deemed obligations under such accounts receivable purchase
facility. The conversion to an accounts receivable purchase facility in
accordance with the terms hereof shall not be deemed an exercise by Laurus of
its secured creditor rights under Article 9 of the UCC. Immediately following
Laurus' request, the Companies shall execute all such further documentation as
may be required by Laurus to more fully set forth the accounts receivable
purchase facility herein contemplated, including, without limitation, Laurus'
standard form of accounts receivable purchase agreement and account debtor
notification letters, but any Company's failure to enter into any such
documentation shall not impair or affect the Receivables Purchase in any manner
whatsoever.

            (c) Minimum Borrowing Amount. After a registration statement
registering the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC,
conversions of the Minimum Borrowing Amount into the Common Stock may be
initiated as set forth in the respective Minimum Borrowing Note. From and after
the date upon which any outstanding principal of the Minimum Borrowing Amount
(as evidenced by the first Minimum Borrowing Note) is converted into Common
Stock (the "First Conversion Date"), (i) corresponding amounts of all
outstanding Loans (not attributable to the then outstanding Minimum Borrowing
Amount) existing on or made after the First Conversion Date will be aggregated
in accordance with Section 2(a)(i) and (ii) the Companies will issue a new
(serialized) Minimum Borrowing Note to Laurus in accordance with Section
2(a)(i), and (iii) the Parent shall prepare and file a subsequent registration
statement with the SEC to register such subsequent Minimum Borrowing Note as set
forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

            (d) Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein
and in the Ancillary Agreements, Laurus shall make a term loan (the "Term Loan")
to Company Agent (for the benefit of Companies) in an aggregate amount equal to
$1,000,000. The Term Loan shall be advanced on the Closing Date and shall be,
with respect to principal, payable in consecutive monthly installments of
principal commencing on November 1, 2005 and on the first day of each month
thereafter, subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
or termination of this Agreement. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by the
Secured Convertible Term Note

            3. Repayment of the Loans. The Companies (a) may prepay the
Obligations from time to time in accordance with the terms and provisions of the
Notes (and Section 17

                                       4
<PAGE>

hereof if such prepayment is due to a termination of this Agreement); (b) shall
repay on the expiration of the Term (i) the then aggregate outstanding principal
balance of the Loans together with accrued and unpaid interest, fees and charges
and; (ii) all other amounts owed Laurus under this Agreement and the Ancillary
Agreements; and (c) subject to Section 2(a)(ii), shall repay on any day on which
the then aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans are in excess of
the Formula Amount at such time, Loans in an amount equal to such excess. Any
payments of principal, interest, fees or any other amounts payable hereunder or
under any Ancillary Agreement shall be made prior to 12:00 noon (New York time)
on the due date thereof in immediately available funds.

            4. Procedure for Revolving Loans. Company Agent may by written
notice request a borrowing of Revolving Loans prior to 12:00 noon (New York
time) on the Business Day of its request to incur, on the next Business Day, a
Loan. Together with each request for a Revolving Loan (or at such other
intervals as Laurus may request), Company Agent shall deliver to Laurus a
Borrowing Base Certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto, which shall
be certified as true and correct by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief
Financial Officer of Company Agent together with all supporting documentation
relating thereto. All Revolving Loans shall be disbursed from whichever office
or other place Laurus may designate from time to time and shall be charged to
the Companies' account on Laurus' books. The proceeds of each Revolving Loan
made by Laurus shall be made available to Company Agent on the Business Day
following the Business Day so requested in accordance with the terms of this
Section 4 by way of credit to the applicable Company's operating account
maintained with such bank as Company Agent designated to Laurus. Any and all
Obligations due and owing hereunder may be charged to the Companies' account and
shall constitute Revolving Loans.

            5. Interest and Payments.

            (a) Interest.

                  (i) Except as modified by Section 5(a)(iii) below, the
Companies shall jointly and severally pay interest at the Contract Rate on the
unpaid principal balance of each Loan until such time as such Loan is collected
in full in good funds in dollars of the United States of America.

                  (ii) Interest and payments shall be computed on the basis of
actual days elapsed in a year of 360 days. At Laurus' option, Laurus may charge
the Companies' account for said interest.

                  (iii) Effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
and for so long as any Event of Default shall be continuing, the Contract Rate
shall automatically be increased as set forth in the Notes (such increased rate,
the "Default Rate"), and all outstanding Obligations, including unpaid interest,
shall continue to accrue interest from the date of such Event of Default at the
Default Rate applicable to such Obligations.

                  (iv) In no event shall the aggregate interest payable
hereunder exceed the maximum rate permitted under any applicable law or
regulation, as in effect from time to time (the "Maximum Legal Rate"), and if
any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary

                                       5
<PAGE>

Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, interest payable
under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement shall be computed on the basis
of the Maximum Legal Rate (so that such interest will not exceed the Maximum
Legal Rate).

                  (v) The Companies shall jointly and severally pay principal,
interest and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any Ancillary
Agreement, without any deduction whatsoever, including any deduction for any
set-off or counterclaim.

            (b) Payments; Certain Closing Conditions.

                  (i) Closing/Annual Payments. Upon execution of this Agreement
by each Company and Laurus, the Companies shall jointly and severally pay to
Laurus Capital Management, LLC a closing payment in an amount equal to three and
nine tenths percent (3.9%) of the Total Investment Amount. Such payment shall be
deemed fully earned on the Closing Date and shall not be subject to rebate or
proration for any reason.

                  (ii) Unused Line Payment. None.

                  (iii) Overadvance Payment. Without affecting Laurus' rights
hereunder in the event the Loans exceed the Formula Amount (each such event, an
"Overadvance"), all such Overadvances shall bear additional interest at a rate
equal to one and one half percent (1.5%) per month of the amount of such
Overadvances for all times such amounts shall be in excess of the Formula
Amount. All amounts that are incurred pursuant to this Section 5(b)(iii) shall
be due and payable by the Companies monthly, in arrears, on the first business
day of each calendar month and upon expiration of the Term.

                  (iv) Financial Information Default. Without affecting Laurus'
other rights and remedies, in the event any Company fails to deliver the
financial information required by Section 11 on or before the date required by
this Agreement, the Companies shall jointly and severally pay Laurus an
aggregate fee in the amount of $500.00 per week (or portion thereof) for each
such failure until such failure is cured to Laurus' satisfaction or waived in
writing by Laurus. All amounts that are incurred pursuant to this Section
5(b)(iv) shall be due and payable by the Companies monthly, in arrears, on the
first business of each calendar month and upon expiration of the Term.

                  (v) Expenses. The Companies shall jointly and severally
reimburse Laurus for its expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses)
incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement
and the Ancillary Agreements, and expenses incurred in connection with Laurus'
due diligence review of each Company and its Subsidiaries and all related
matters. Amounts required to be paid under this Section 5(b)(v) will be paid on
the Closing Date and shall be $52,500 for such expenses referred to in this
Section 5(b)(v) plus the cost of any required third-party appraisals and/or
extraordinary diligence, subject to the Parent's prior approval, as well as fees
and expenses of outside counsel to the extent the retention of whom Laurus deems
prudent.

                  (vi) Subordination. On or prior to the Closing Date, the
Companies shall cause each of Health Holdings and Botanicals, LLC, a California
limited liability company, Wald Holdings, LLC, a Missouri limited liability
company, David A. Weil, Bill D. Stewart and

                                       6

to each enter into subordination agreements in respect of such debt obligations
(or provide evidence of termination of such obligations), each in form and
substance satisfactory to Laurus (as amended, modified and/or or supplemented
from time to time, collectively, the "Subordination Agreements" and each, a
"Subordination Agreement").

                  (vii) Refinancing. On or prior to the Closing Date, all
indebtedness, together with all interest and fees related thereto (the "Existing
Indebtedness") under the (i) Credit and Security Agreement dated as of January
27, 2000 between Wells Fargo Business Credit, Inc. ("Wells Fargo") and the
Parent (as amended, modified and/or supplemented, the "Existing Credit
Agreement") together with the other Loan Documents referred to therein, shall
have been repaid in full and all commitments in respect thereof shall have been
terminated and all Liens and guaranties in connection therewith shall have been
terminated (and all appropriate releases, termination statements or other
instruments of assignment with respect thereto shall have been obtained) to the
reasonable satisfaction of Laurus. Laurus shall have received satisfactory
evidence (including satisfactory pay-off letters, mortgage releases,
intellectual property releases and UCC-3 termination statements) that the
matters set forth in the immediately preceding sentence have been satisfied as
of the Closing Date.

                  (viii) Common Stock Share Surrender. On or prior to the
Closing Date, the Parent shall have delivered evidence satisfactory to Laurus
that no less than 100% of the shares of Common Stock of the Parent held by each
of the Westgate Group L.P. and Health Holdings & Botanicals, LLC shall have been
irrevocably surrendered to the Parent.

                  (ix) Lockup Agreements. On or prior to the Closing Date, the
Parent shall deliver to Laurus evidence that each of Quincy Investments Corp.,
Liberty Company Financial LLC, Westgate Group, L.P., and Health Holdings &
Botanicals, LLC has agreed to "lockup" and not sell shares of Common Stock of
the Parent by each such party, and/or exercise their respective rights to
convert preferred shares of the Parent into shares of Common Stock of the
Parent, during the term commencing on the date hereof and continuing for a
period of no less than one year, all pursuant to agreements in form and
substance satisfactory to Laurus (collectively, the "Lock-Up Agreements").

            6. Security Interest.

            (a) To secure the prompt payment to Laurus of the Obligations, each
Company hereby assigns, pledges and grants to Laurus a continuing security
interest in and Lien upon all of the Collateral. All of each Company's Books and
Records relating to the Collateral shall, until delivered to or removed by
Laurus, be kept by such Company in trust for Laurus until all Obligations have
been paid in full. Each confirmatory assignment schedule or other form of
assignment hereafter executed by each Company shall be deemed to include the
foregoing grant, whether or not the same appears therein.

            (b) Each Company hereby (i) authorizes Laurus to file any financing
statements, continuation statements or amendments thereto that (x) indicate the
Collateral (1) as all assets and personal property of such Company or words of
similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the
Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the

                                       7
<PAGE>

UCC of such jurisdiction, or (2) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with
greater detail, and (y) contain any other information required by Part 5 of
Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
financing statement, continuation statement or amendment and (ii) ratifies its
authorization for Laurus to have filed any initial financial statements, or
amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. Each Company acknowledges

properties or assets or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or
nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to it or
any of its Subsidiaries, their businesses or operations or any of their assets
or properties.

            (l) Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 12(l), there is no

any of its Subsidiaries is a party to 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 it or

of its Subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any currently effective employment
contract, deferred compensation arrangement, bonus plan, incentive plan, profit
sharing plan, retirement agreement or other employee compensation plan or
agreement. To its knowledge, none of its or any of its Subsidiaries' employees,

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, it or any of its Subsidiaries because of
the nature of the business to be conducted by it or any of its Subsidiaries; and
to its knowledge the continued employment by it and its Subsidiaries of their
present employees, and the performance of its and its Subsidiaries contracts
with its independent contractors, will not result in any such violation. Neither
it nor any of its Subsidiaries is aware that any of its or any of its

Subsidiaries' stockholders has entered into any agreement with respect to its or
any of its Subsidiaries' voting of equity securities.

            (p) Compliance with Laws; Permits. Neither it nor any of its
Subsidiaries is in violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or any SEC
related regulation or rule or any rule of the Principal Market promulgated
thereunder or any other 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 has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, either

<PAGE>

respect to any filings that must be made after the Closing Date, as will be
filed in a timely manner. It and each of its Subsidiaries 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 could,
either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

Subsidiaries is in violation of any applicable statute, law or regulation
relating to the environment or occupational health and safety, and to its
knowledge, no material expenditures are or will be required in order to comply
with any such existing statute, law or regulation. Except as set forth on
Schedule 12(q), no Hazardous Materials (as defined below) are used or have been
used, stored, or disposed of by it or any of its Subsidiaries or, to its
knowledge, by any other Person on any property owned, leased or used by it or
any of its Subsidiaries. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, "Hazardous
Materials" shall mean:

                  (i) materials which are listed or otherwise defined as
"hazardous" or "toxic" under any applicable local, state, federal and/or foreign
laws and regulations that govern the existence and/or remedy of contamination on
property, the protection of the environment from contamination, the control of
hazardous wastes, or other activities involving hazardous substances, including
building materials; and (ii) any petroleum products or nuclear materials.

            (r) Valid Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and
warranties of Laurus contained in this Agreement, the offer and issuance of the
Securities will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and will have been registered or

registration, permit or qualification requirements of all applicable state
securities laws.

            (s) Full Disclosure. It and each of its Subsidiaries has provided
Laurus with all information requested by Laurus in connection with Laurus'
decision to enter into this Agreement, including (i) all information each
Company and its Subsidiaries believe is reasonably necessary to make such
investment decision and (ii) the fact that its Accountants have issued a going
concern qualification in connection with its last annual audited financial
statements. Neither this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements nor the exhibits
and schedules hereto and thereto nor any other document delivered by it or any
of its Subsidiaries to Laurus or its attorneys or agents in connection herewith
or therewith or with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, contain
any untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein, in light
of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. Any financial
projections and other estimates provided to Laurus by it or any of its
Subsidiaries were based on its and its Subsidiaries' experience in the industry
and on assumptions of fact and opinion as to future events which it or any of
its Subsidiaries, at the date of the issuance of such projections or estimates,
believed to be reasonable.

            (t) Insurance. It and each of its Subsidiaries has general
commercial, product liability, fire and casualty insurance policies with
coverages which it believes are customary for companies similarly situated to it
and its Subsidiaries in the same or similar business.

            (u) SEC Reports and Financial Statements. Except as set forth on
Schedule 12(u), it and each of its Subsidiaries has filed all proxy statements,
reports and other documents required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act.
The Parent has furnished Laurus with copies of: (i) its Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for its fiscal years ended December 31, 2004; and (ii) its Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-QSB for its fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2005, and the
Form 8-K filings which it has made during its fiscal year 2005 to date
(collectively, the "SEC Reports"). Except as set forth on Schedule 12(u), each
SEC Report was, at the time of its filing, in substantial compliance with the
requirements of its respective form and none of the SEC Reports, nor the
financial statements (and the notes thereto) included in the SEC Reports, as of
their respective filing dates, contained any untrue statement of a material fact
or omitted 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. Such financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved
(except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the
notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent
they may not include footnotes or may be condensed) and fairly present in all
material respects the financial condition, the results of operations and cash
flows of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, as of, and
for, the periods presented in each such SEC Report.

            (v) Listing. The Parent's Common Stock is listed or quoted, as
applicable, on the Principal Market and satisfies all requirements for the
continuation of such listing or quotation, as applicable, and the Parent shall
do all things necessary for the continuation of such listing or quotation, as
applicable. The Parent has not received any notice that its Common Stock will be
delisted from, or no longer quoted on, as applicable, the Principal Market or
that its Common Stock does not meet all requirements for such listing or
quotation, as applicable.

            (w) No Integrated Offering. Neither it, nor any of its Subsidiaries
nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, has
directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any
offers to buy any security (other than a concurrent offering to Laurus under a
Securities Purchase Agreement between the Parent and Laurus dated as of the date
hereof) under circumstances that would cause the offering of the Securities
pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be integrated with
prior offerings by it for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent it
from issuing the Securities pursuant to Rule 506 under the Securities Act, or
any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions, nor will it 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 offerings.

            (x) Stop Transfer. The Securities are restricted securities as of
the date of this Agreement. Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries will issue
any stop transfer order or other order impeding the sale and delivery of any of
the Securities at such time as the Securities are registered for public sale or
an exemption from registration is available, except as required by state and
federal securities laws.

                                       22

            (y) Dilution. It specifically acknowledges that the Parent's
obligation to issue the shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and
exercise of the Warrants is binding upon the Parent and enforceable regardless
of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other
shareholders of the Parent.

            (z) Patriot Act. It certifies that, to the best of its knowledge,
neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has been designated, nor is or shall be
owned or controlled, by a "suspected terrorist" as defined in Executive Order
13224. It hereby acknowledges that Laurus seeks to comply with all applicable
laws concerning money laundering and related activities. In furtherance of those
efforts, it hereby represents, warrants and covenants that: (i) none of the cash
or property that it or any of its Subsidiaries will pay or will contribute to
Laurus has been or shall be derived from, or related to, any activity that is
deemed criminal under United States law; and (ii) no contribution or payment by
it or any of its Subsidiaries to Laurus, to the extent that they are within its
or any such Subsidiary's control shall cause Laurus to be in violation of the
United States Bank Secrecy Act, the United States International Money Laundering
Control Act of 1986 or the United States International Money Laundering
Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001. It shall promptly notify
Laurus if any of these representations, warranties and covenants ceases to be
true and accurate regarding it or any of its Subsidiaries. It shall provide
Laurus with any additional information regarding it and each Subsidiary thereof
that Laurus deems necessary or convenient to ensure compliance with all
applicable laws concerning money laundering and similar activities. It
understands and agrees that if at any time it is discovered that any of the
foregoing representations, warranties and covenants are incorrect, or if
otherwise required by applicable law or regulation related to money laundering
or similar activities, Laurus may undertake appropriate actions to ensure
compliance with applicable law or regulation, including but not limited to
segregation and/or redemption of Laurus' investment in it. It further
understands that Laurus may release confidential information about it and its
Subsidiaries and, if applicable, any underlying beneficial owners, to proper
authorities if Laurus, in its sole discretion, determines that it is in the best
interests of Laurus in light of relevant rules and regulations under the laws
set forth in subsection (ii) above.

            (aa) Company Name; Locations of Offices, Records and Collateral.
Schedule 12(aa) sets forth each Company's name as it appears in official filings
in the state of its organization, the type of entity of each Company, the
organizational identification number issued by each Company's state of
organization or a statement that no such number has been issued, each Company's
state of organization, and the location of each Company's chief executive
office, corporate offices, warehouses, other locations of Collateral and
locations where records with respect to Collateral are kept (including in each
case the county of such locations) and, except as set forth in such Schedule
12(aa), such locations have not changed during the preceding twelve months. As
of the Closing Date, during the prior five years, except as set forth in
Schedule 12(aa), no Company has been known as or conducted business in any other
name (including trade names). Each Company has only one state of organization.

            (bb) ERISA. Based upon the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974 ("ERISA"), and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder:
(i) neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any Prohibited
Transactions (as defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code);
(ii) it and each of its Subsidiaries has met all applicable minimum funding
requirements under Section 302 of ERISA in respect of its plans; (iii) neither

<PAGE>

it nor any of its Subsidiaries has any knowledge of any event or occurrence
which would cause the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation to institute
proceedings under Title IV of ERISA to terminate any employee benefit plan(s);
(iv) neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has any fiduciary responsibility for
investments with respect to any plan existing for the benefit of persons other
than its or such Subsidiary's employees; and (v) neither it nor any of its
Subsidiaries has withdrawn, completely or partially, from any multi-employer
pension plan so as to incur liability under the Multiemployer Pension Plan
Amendments Act of 1980.

            13. Covenants. Each Company, as applicable, covenants and agrees
with Laurus as follows, during the Term of this Agreement:

            (a) Stop-Orders. It shall advise Laurus, promptly after it receives
notice of issuance by the SEC, any state securities commission or any other
regulatory authority of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending
any offering of any securities of the Parent, or of the suspension of the
qualification of the Common Stock of the Parent for offering or sale in any
jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any such purpose.

            (b) Listing. It shall promptly secure the listing or quotation, as
applicable, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes,
exercise of the Warrants and exercise of the Options on the Principal Market
upon which shares of Common Stock are listed or quoted, as applicable, (subject
to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain such listing or quotation, as
applicable, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed or
quoted, as applicable. The Parent shall maintain the listing or quotation, as
applicable, of its Common Stock on the NASDAQ OTC Bulletin Board or other
Principal Market approved in writing by Laurus, and will comply in all material
respects with the Parent's reporting, filing and other obligations under the

promptly provide copies thereof to Laurus.

            (d) Reporting Requirements. It shall timely file with the SEC all
reports required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act and refrain from
terminating its status as an issuer required by the Exchange Act to file reports
thereunder even if the Exchange Act or the rules or regulations thereunder would

            (e) Use of Funds. It shall use the proceeds of the Loans (i) to
repay in full the Existing Indebtedness and (iii) for general working capital
purposes only.

            (f) Access to Facilities. It shall, and shall cause each of its
Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by Laurus (or any
successor of Laurus), upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours,
at Company's expense and accompanied by a representative of Company Agent
(provided that no such prior notice shall be required to be given and no such
representative shall be required to accompany Laurus in the event Laurus

                                       24

believes such access is necessary to preserve or protect the Collateral or

properties;

confidentiality agreement and otherwise complies with Regulation FD, under the
federal securities laws.

            (g) Taxes. It shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to,
promptly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, when due and
payable, all lawful taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies

levy need not be paid currently if (i) the validity thereof shall currently and
diligently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, (ii) such tax,
assessment, charge or levy shall have no effect on the Lien priority of Laurus
in the Collateral, and (iii) if it and/or such Subsidiary, as applicable, shall
have set aside on its and/or such Subsidiary's books adequate reserves with
respect thereto in accordance with GAAP; and provided, further, that it shall,
and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay all such taxes, assessments,
charges or levies forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose

business similarly situated as it and its Subsidiaries; and it and its
Subsidiaries shall maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers,
insurance against other hazards and risks and liability to persons and property
to the extent and in the manner which it and/or such Subsidiary thereof
reasonably believes is customary for companies in similar business similarly
situated as it and its Subsidiaries and to the extent available on commercially
reasonable terms. It and each of its Subsidiaries will jointly and severally
bear the full risk of loss from any loss of any nature whatsoever with respect
to the assets pledged to Laurus as security for its obligations hereunder and
under the Ancillary Agreements. At its own cost and expense in amounts and with
carriers reasonably acceptable to Laurus, it and each of its Subsidiaries shall
(i) keep all their insurable properties and properties in which they have an
interest insured against the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those
hazards covered by extended coverage insurance and such other hazards, and for
such amounts, as is customary in the case of companies engaged in businesses
similar to it or the respective Subsidiary's including business interruption
insurance; (ii) maintain a bond in such amounts as is customary in the case of
companies

                                       25

engaged in businesses similar to it and its Subsidiaries' insuring against
larceny, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of insured's officers
and employees who may either singly or jointly with others at any time have
access to its or any of its Subsidiaries assets or funds either directly or
through governmental authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally
the disposition of such assets; (iii) maintain public and product liability
insurance against claims for personal injury, death or property damage suffered
by others; (iv) maintain all such worker's compensation or similar insurance as
may be required under the laws of any state or jurisdiction in which it or any
of its Subsidiaries is engaged in business; and (v) furnish Laurus with (x)
copies of all policies and evidence of the maintenance of such policies at least
thirty (30) days before any expiration date, (y) excepting its and its
Subsidiaries' workers' compensation policy, endorsements to such policies naming
Laurus as "co-insured" or "additional insured" and appropriate loss payable

that in the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers shall make payment for
such loss to Laurus and not to any Company or any of its Subsidiaries and Laurus
jointly. If any insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other instrument
payable to any Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and Laurus jointly, Laurus
may endorse, as applicable, such Company's and/or any of its Subsidiaries' name
thereon and do such other things as Laurus may deem advisable to reduce the same
to cash. Laurus is hereby authorized to adjust and compromise claims. All loss
recoveries received by Laurus upon any such insurance may be applied to the
Obligations, in such order as Laurus in its sole discretion shall determine or
shall otherwise be delivered to Company Agent for the benefit of the applicable
Company and/or its Subsidiaries. Any surplus shall be paid by Laurus to Company
Agent for the benefit of the applicable Company and/or its Subsidiaries, or
applied as may be otherwise required by law. Any deficiency thereon shall be
paid, as applicable, by Companies and their Subsidiaries to Laurus, on demand.

            (i) Intellectual Property. It shall, and shall cause each of its
Subsidiaries to, maintain in full force and effect its corporate existence,
rights and franchises and all licenses and other rights to use Intellectual
Property owned or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to be necessary to the
conduct of its business.

            (j) Properties. It shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries
to, keep its properties in good repair, working order and condition, reasonable
wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make all needful and proper
repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements thereto; and it
shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, at all times comply with
each provision of all leases to which it is a party or under which it occupies
property if the breach of such provision could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

            (k) Confidentiality. It shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Subsidiaries to, disclose, and will not include in any public announcement, the
name of Laurus, unless expressly agreed to by Laurus or unless and until such
disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and then only to the
extent of such requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Company and its
Subsidiaries may disclose Laurus' identity and the terms of this Agreement to
its current and prospective debt and equity financing sources.

            (n) Opinion. On the Closing Date, it shall deliver to Laurus an
opinion acceptable to Laurus from each Company's legal counsel. Each Company

by or before and/or the receipt of any notices from, any governmental or

                                       28
<PAGE>

with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute a default
under any agreement for the payment of money to which it or any of its
Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its
or any such Subsidiary's properties may be bound the breach of which would have
a Material Adverse Effect.

times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock
to provide for the conversion of the Notes, exercise of the Warrants and
exercise of the Options.

provide any Additional Financing (as defined below) to be issued by any Company
and/or any of its Subsidiaries (the "Additional Financing Parties"), subject to
the following terms and conditions. From and after the date hereof, prior to the
incurrence of any additional convertible indebtedness and/or the sale or
issuance of any equity interests, other than straight equity issuances, of the
Additional Financing Parties (an "Additional Financing"), Company Agent shall
notify Laurus of such Additional Financing. For the avoidance of doubt, the
defined term "Additional Financing" shall not include issuances of
non-convertible debt or straight equity issuances. In connection therewith,
Company Agent shall submit a fully executed term sheet (a "Proposed Term Sheet")
to Laurus setting forth the terms, conditions and pricing of any such Additional
Financing (such financing to be negotiated on "arm's length" terms and the terms
thereof to be negotiated in good faith) proposed to be entered into by the
Additional Financing Parties. Laurus shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to deliver to Company Agent its own proposed term sheet (the "Laurus
Term Sheet") setting forth the terms and conditions upon which Laurus would be
willing to provide such Additional Financing to the Additional Financing
Parties. The Laurus Term Sheet shall contain terms no less favorable to the
Additional Financing Parties than those outlined in Proposed Term Sheet. Laurus
shall deliver to Company Agent the Laurus Term Sheet within ten Business Days of
receipt of each such Proposed Term Sheet. If the provisions of the Laurus Term
Sheet are at least as favorable to the Additional Financing Parties as the
provisions of the Proposed Term Sheet, the Additional Financing Parties shall
enter into and consummate the Additional Financing transaction outlined in the
Laurus Term Sheet.

<PAGE>

                  (ii) It shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to,
agree, directly or indirectly, to any restriction with any Person which limits
the ability of Laurus to consummate an Additional Financing with it or any of
its Subsidiaries.

            (v) Prohibition of Amendments to Subordinated Debt Documentation and
Lock-Up Agreements. It shall not, without the prior written consent of Laurus,
amend, modify or in any way alter the terms of any of the Subordinated Debt
Documentation or the Lock-Up Agreements.

            (w) Prohibition of Grant of Collateral for Subordinated Debt
Documentation. It shall not, without the prior written consent of Laurus, grant
or permit any of its Subsidiaries to grant to any Person any Collateral of such
Company or any collateral of any of its Subsidiaries as security for any
obligation arising under the Subordinated Debt Documentation.

            (x) Prohibitions of Payment Under Subordinated Debt Documentation.
Neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, without the prior written consent
of Laurus, make any payments in respect of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Subordinated Debt Documentation, other than as expressly permitted by the terms
thereof.

            14. Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon the
written request of Laurus and at the sole expense of Companies, each Company
shall promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments
and documents and take such further action as Laurus may request (a) to obtain
the full benefits of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, (b) to
protect, preserve and maintain Laurus' rights in the Collateral and under this
Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, and/or (c) to enable Laurus to exercise
all or any of the rights and powers herein granted or any Ancillary Agreement.

            15. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Laurus. Laurus
hereby represents, warrants and covenants to each Company as follows:

            (a) Requisite Power and Authority. Laurus has all necessary power
and authority under all applicable provisions of law to execute and deliver this
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and to carry out their provisions. All
corporate action on Laurus' part required for the lawful execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements have been or will be effectively
taken prior to the Closing Date. Upon their execution and delivery, this
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be valid and binding obligations of
Laurus, 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) as
limited by general principles of equity that restrict the availability of
equitable and legal remedies.

            (b) Investment Representations. Laurus understands that the
Securities are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration
contained in the Securities Act based in part upon Laurus' representations
contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, that Laurus is an
"accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities
Act. Laurus has received or has had full access to all the information it
considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with
respect to the Notes to be

                                       30
<PAGE>

issued to it under this Agreement and the Securities acquired by it upon the
conversion of the Notes.

            (c) Laurus Bears Economic Risk. Laurus has substantial experience in
evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in
companies similar to the Parent so that it is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of its investment in the Parent and has the capacity to protect its
own interests. Laurus must bear the economic risk of 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.

            (d) Investment for Own Account. The Securities are being issued to
Laurus for its own account for investment only, and not as a nominee or agent
and not with a view towards or for resale in connection with their distribution.

            (e) Laurus Can Protect Its Interest. Laurus represents that by
reason of its, or of its management's, business and financial experience, Laurus
has the capacity to evaluate the merits and risks of its investment in the
Notes, and the Securities and to protect its own interests in connection with
the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, and the Ancillary Agreements.
Further, Laurus is aware of no publication of any advertisement in connection
with the transactions contemplated in the Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.

            (f) Accredited Investor. Laurus represents that it is an accredited
investor within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

            (g) Shorting. Neither Laurus nor any of its Affiliates or investment
partners has, will, or will cause any Person, to directly engage in "short
sales" of the Parent's Common Stock as long as any Minimum Borrowing Note shall
be outstanding.

            (h) Patriot Act. Laurus certifies that, to the best of Laurus'
knowledge, Laurus has not been designated, and is not owned or controlled, by a
"suspected terrorist" as defined in Executive Order 13224. Laurus seeks to
comply with all applicable laws concerning money laundering and related
activities. In furtherance of those efforts, Laurus hereby represents, warrants
and covenants that: (i) none of the cash or property that Laurus will use to
make the Loans has been or shall be derived from, or related to, any activity
that is deemed criminal under United States law; and (ii) no disbursement by
Laurus to any Company to the extent within Laurus' control, shall cause Laurus
to be in violation of the United States Bank Secrecy Act, the United States
International Money Laundering Control Act of 1986 or the United States
International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of
2001. Laurus shall promptly notify the Company Agent if any of these
representations ceases to be true and accurate regarding Laurus. Laurus agrees
to provide the Company any additional information regarding Laurus that the
Company deems necessary or convenient to ensure compliance with all applicable
laws concerning money laundering and similar activities. Laurus understands and
agrees that if at any time it is discovered that any of the foregoing
representations are incorrect, or if otherwise required by applicable law or
regulation related to money laundering similar activities, Laurus may undertake
appropriate actions to ensure compliance with applicable law or regulation,
including but not limited to segregation and/or redemption of Laurus' investment
in the Parent. Laurus further understands that the Parent may

                                       31
<PAGE>

release information about Laurus and, if applicable, any underlying beneficial
owners, to proper authorities if the Parent, in its sole discretion, determines
that it is in the best interests of the Parent in light of relevant rules and
regulations under the laws set forth in subsection (ii) above.

            (i) Limitation on Acquisition of Common Stock. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement,
or any document, instrument or agreement entered into in connection with any
other transaction entered into by and between Laurus and any Company (and/or
Subsidiaries or Affiliates of any Company), Laurus shall not acquire stock in
the Parent (including, without limitation, pursuant to a contract to purchase,
by exercising an option or warrant, by converting any other security or
instrument, by acquiring or exercising any other right to acquire, shares of
stock or other security convertible into shares of stock in the Parent, or
otherwise, and such options, warrants, conversion or other rights shall not be
exercisable) to the extent such stock acquisition would cause any interest
(including any original issue discount) payable by any Company to Laurus not to
qualify as portfolio interest, within the meaning of Section 881(c)(2) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") by reason of Section
881(c)(3) of the Code, taking into account the constructive ownership rules
under Section 871(h)(3)(C) of the Code (the "Stock Acquisition Limitation"). The
Stock Acquisition Limitation shall automatically become null and void without
any notice to any Company upon the earlier to occur of either (a) the Parent's
delivery to Laurus of a Notice of Redemption (as defined in the Notes) or (b)
the existence of an Event of Default at a time when the average closing price of
the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal Market for the
immediately preceding five trading days is greater than or equal to 150% of the
Fixed Conversion Price (as defined in the Notes).

            (j) Limitation on Sale of Option Shares. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not sell any Option Shares
resulting from the exercise of its rights under the Option prior to the
expiration of one hundred eighty (180) days following the date hereof. The
limitation described in this Section 15(j) shall automatically become null and
void without any notice to the Parent upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default.

            16. Power of Attorney. Each Company hereby appoints Laurus, or any
other Person whom Laurus may designate as such Company's attorney, with power
to: (i) endorse such Company's name on any checks, notes, acceptances, money
orders, drafts or other forms of payment or security that may come into Laurus'
possession to the extent deemed prudent by Laurus to protect its interests
hereunder and under the Ancillary Agreements; (ii) sign such Company's name on
any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Accounts, drafts against Account
Debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, notices of assignment, financing
statements and other public records, verifications of Account and notices to or
from Account Debtors; (iii) verify the validity, amount or any other matter
relating to any Account by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise with Account
Debtors; (iv) do all things necessary to carry out this Agreement, any Ancillary
Agreement and all related documents; and (v) on or after the occurrence and
during the continuation of an Event of Default, notify the post office
authorities to change the address for delivery of such Company's mail to an
address designated by Laurus, and to receive, open and dispose of all mail
addressed to such Company. Each Company hereby ratifies and approves all acts of
the attorney. Neither Laurus, nor the attorney will be liable for any acts or
omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law, except for
gross

                                       32
<PAGE>

negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is
irrevocable so long as Laurus has a security interest and until the Obligations
have been fully satisfied.

            17. Term of Agreement. Laurus' agreement to make Loans and extend
financial accommodations under and in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall continue in full force and effect
until the expiration of the Term. At Laurus' election following the occurrence
of an Event of Default, Laurus may terminate this Agreement. The termination of
the Agreement shall not affect any of Laurus' rights hereunder or any Ancillary
Agreement and the provisions hereof and thereof shall continue to be fully
operative until all transactions entered into, rights or interests created and
the Obligations have been irrevocably disposed of, concluded or liquidated.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Laurus shall release its security interests at
any time after thirty (30) days notice upon irrevocable payment to it of all
Obligations if each Company shall have (i) provided Laurus with an executed
release of any and all claims which such Company may have or thereafter have
under this Agreement and all Ancillary Agreements and (ii) paid to Laurus an
early payment fee in an amount equal to (1) five percent (5%) of the Total
Investment Amount if such payment occurs prior to the first anniversary of the
Closing Date, (2) four percent (4%) of the Total Investment Amount if such
payment occurs on or after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and prior
to the second anniversary of the Closing Date and (3) three percent (3%) of the
Total Investment Amount if such termination occurs thereafter during the Term;
such fee being intended to compensate Laurus for its costs and expenses incurred
in initially approving this Agreement or extending same. Such early payment fee
shall be due and payable jointly and severally by the Companies to Laurus upon
termination by acceleration of this Agreement by Laurus due to the occurrence
and continuance of an Event of Default.

            18. Termination of Lien. The Liens and rights granted to Laurus
hereunder and any Ancillary Agreements and the financing statements filed in
connection herewith or therewith shall continue in full force and effect,
notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the fact that any Company's
account may from time to time be temporarily in a zero or credit position, until
all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid or performed in full after
the termination of this Agreement. Laurus shall not be required to send
termination statements to any Company, or to file them with any filing office,
unless and until this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall have been
terminated in accordance with their terms and all Obligations indefeasibly paid
in full in immediately available funds.

            19. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall
constitute an "Event of Default":

            (a) failure to make payment of any of the Obligations when required
hereunder, and, in any such case, such failure shall continue for a period of
three (3) days following the date upon which any such payment was due;

            (b) failure by any Company or any of its Subsidiaries to pay any
taxes when due unless such taxes are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and with respect to which adequate reserves have been
provided on such Company's and/or such Subsidiary's books;

                                       33
<PAGE>

            (c) failure to perform under, and/or committing any breach of, in
any material respect, this Agreement or any covenant contained herein, which
failure or breach shall continue without remedy for a period of twenty (20) days
after the occurrence thereof;

            (d) any representation, warranty or statement made by any Company or
any of its Subsidiaries hereunder, in any Ancillary Agreement, any certificate,
statement or document delivered pursuant to the terms hereof, or in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement should prove to be false or
misleading in any material respect on the date as of which made or deemed made;

            (e) the occurrence of any default (or similar term) in the
observance or performance of any other agreement or condition relating to any
indebtedness or contingent obligation of any Company or any of its Subsidiaries
(including, without limitation, the indebtedness evidenced by the Subordinated
Debt Documentation) beyond the period of grace (if any), the effect of which

evidenced by the Subordinated Debt Documentation to a Person that was not
entitled to receive such payments under the subordination provisions of
applicable Subordinated Debt Documentation.

            20. Remedies. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Laurus shall have the right to demand repayment in full of all Obligations,
whether or not otherwise due. Until all Obligations have been fully and
indefeasibly satisfied, Laurus shall retain its Lien in all Collateral. Laurus
shall have, in addition to all other rights provided herein and in each
Ancillary Agreement, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC,
and under other applicable law, all other legal and equitable rights to which
Laurus may be entitled, including the right to take immediate possession of the
Collateral, to require each Company to assemble the Collateral, at Companies'
joint and several expense, and to make it available to Laurus at a place
designated by Laurus which is reasonably convenient to both parties and to enter
any of the premises of any Company or wherever the Collateral shall be located,
with or without force or process of law, and to keep and store the same on said
premises until sold (and if said premises be the property of any Company, such
Company agrees not to charge Laurus for storage thereof), and the right to apply
for the appointment of a receiver for such Company's property. Further, Laurus
may, at any time or times after the occurrence of an Event of Default, sell and
deliver all Collateral held by or for Laurus at public or private sale for cash,
upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as Laurus, in
Laurus' sole discretion, deems advisable or Laurus may otherwise recover upon
the Collateral in any commercially reasonable manner as Laurus, in its sole
discretion, deems advisable. The requirement of reasonable notice shall be met
if such notice is mailed postage prepaid to Company Agent at Company Agent's
address as shown in Laurus' records, at least ten (10) days before the time of
the event of which notice is being given. Laurus may be the purchaser at any
sale, if it is public. In connection with the exercise of the foregoing
remedies, Laurus is granted permission to use all of each Company's Intellectual
Property. The proceeds of sale shall be applied first to all costs and expenses
of sale, including attorneys' fees, and second to the payment (in whatever order
Laurus elects) of all Obligations. After the indefeasible payment and
satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations, and after the payment by Laurus
of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section
9-608(a)(1) of the UCC (but only after Laurus has received what Laurus considers
reasonable proof of a subordinate party's security interest), the surplus, if
any, shall be paid to Company Agent (for the benefit of the applicable
Companies) or its representatives or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to
receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. The
Companies shall remain jointly and severally liable to Laurus for any
deficiency. In addition, the Companies shall jointly and severally pay Laurus a
liquidation fee ("Liquidation Fee") in the amount of five percent (5%) of the
actual amount collected in respect of each Account outstanding at any time
during a Liquidation Period". For purposes hereof, "Liquidation Period" means a
period: (i) beginning on the earliest date of (x) an event referred to in
Section 19(i) or 19(j), or (y) the cessation of any Company's business; and (ii)
ending on the date on which Laurus has actually received all Obligations due and
owing it under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. The Liquidation Fee
shall be paid on the date on which Laurus collects the applicable Account by
deduction from the proceeds thereof. Each Company and Laurus acknowledge that
the actual damages that would be incurred by Laurus after the occurrence of an
Event of Default would be difficult to quantify and that such Company

                                       36
<PAGE>

and Laurus have agreed that the fees and obligations set forth in this Section
and in this Agreement would constitute fair and appropriate liquidated damages
in the event of any such termination.

            21. Waivers. To the full extent permitted by applicable law, each
Company hereby waives (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of
presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default,
nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of
any or all of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements or any other notes,
commercial paper, Accounts, contracts, Documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper and
guaranties at any time held by Laurus on which such Company may in any way be
liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Laurus may do in this regard;
(b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Laurus' taking possession or
control of, or to Laurus' replevy, attachment or levy upon, any Collateral or
any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing
Laurus to exercise any of its remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation,
appraisal and exemption laws. Each Company acknowledges that it has been advised
by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the
Ancillary Agreements and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.

            22. Expenses. The Companies shall jointly and severally pay all of
Laurus' out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable fees and
disbursements of in-house or outside counsel and appraisers, in connection with
the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary
Agreements, and in connection with the prosecution or defense of any action,
contest, dispute, suit or proceeding concerning any matter in any way arising
out of, related to or connected with this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.
The Companies shall also jointly and severally pay all of Laurus' reasonable
fees, charges, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including fees and
disbursements of counsel and appraisers, in connection with (a) the preparation,
execution and delivery of any waiver, any amendment thereto or consent proposed
or executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
or the Ancillary Agreements, (b) Laurus' obtaining performance of the
Obligations under this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements, including, but
not limited to, the enforcement or defense of Laurus' security interests,
assignments of rights and Liens hereunder as valid perfected security interests,
(c) any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, collect, sell, liquidate or
otherwise dispose of any Collateral, (d) any appraisals or re-appraisals of any
property (real or personal) pledged to Laurus by any Company or any of its
Subsidiaries as Collateral for, or any other Person as security for, the
Obligations hereunder and (e) any consultations in connection with any of the
foregoing. The Companies shall also jointly and severally pay Laurus' customary
bank charges for all bank services (including wire transfers) performed or
caused to be performed by Laurus for any Company or any of its Subsidiaries at
any Company's or such Subsidiary's request or in connection with any Company's
loan account with Laurus. All such costs and expenses together with all filing,
recording and search fees, taxes and interest payable by the Companies to Laurus
shall be payable on demand and shall be secured by the Collateral. If any tax by
any Governmental Authority is or may be imposed on or as a result of any
transaction between any Company and/or any Subsidiary thereof, on the one hand,
and Laurus on the other hand, which Laurus is or may be required to withhold or
pay, the Companies hereby jointly and severally indemnifies and holds Laurus
harmless in respect of such taxes, and the Companies will repay to Laurus the
amount of any such taxes which shall be charged to the Companies' account; and
until the Companies shall furnish Laurus with indemnity therefor (or supply
Laurus with

                                       37
<PAGE>

evidence satisfactory to it that due provision for the payment thereof has been
made), Laurus may hold without interest any balance standing to each Company's
credit and Laurus shall retain its Liens in any and all Collateral.

            23. Assignment By Laurus. Laurus may assign any or all of the
Obligations together with any or all of the security therefor to any Person
which is not a competitor of any Company and any such transferee shall succeed
to all of Laurus' rights with respect thereto. Upon such transfer, Laurus shall
be released from all responsibility for the Collateral to the extent same is
assigned to any transferee. Laurus may from time to time sell or otherwise grant
participations in any of the Obligations and the holder of any such
participation shall, subject to the terms of any agreement between Laurus and
such holder, be entitled to the same benefits as Laurus with respect to any
security for the Obligations in which such holder is a participant. Each Company
agrees that each such holder may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien,
set-off and counterclaim with respect to its participation in the Obligations as
fully as though such Company were directly indebted to such holder in the amount
of such participation.

            24. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Failure by Laurus to exercise
any right, remedy or option under this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any
supplement hereto or thereto or any other agreement between or among any Company
and Laurus or delay by Laurus in exercising the same, will not operate as a
waiver; no waiver by Laurus will be effective unless it is in writing and then
only to the extent specifically stated. Laurus' rights and remedies under this
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements will be cumulative and not exclusive of
any other right or remedy which Laurus may have.

            25. Application of Payments. Each Company irrevocably waive the
right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times
hereafter received by Laurus from or on such Company's behalf and each Company
hereby irrevocably agrees that Laurus shall have the continuing exclusive right
to apply and reapply any and all payments received at any time or times
hereafter against the Obligations hereunder in such manner as Laurus may deem
advisable notwithstanding any entry by Laurus upon any of Laurus' books and
records.

            26. Indemnity. Each Company hereby jointly and severally indemnify
and hold Laurus, and its respective affiliates, employees, attorneys and agents
(each, an "Indemnified Person"), harmless from and against any and all suits,
actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses of any
kind or nature whatsoever (including attorneys' fees and disbursements and other
costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal)
which may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified
Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated
under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or with respect to the
execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of, or in any
other way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Ancillary
Agreements or any other documents or transactions contemplated by or referred to
herein or therein and any actions or failures to act with respect to any of the
foregoing, except to the extent that any such indemnified liability is finally
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from
such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. NO INDEMNIFIED
PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY COMPANY OR TO ANY OTHER PARTY OR TO
ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON

                                       38
<PAGE>

ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE,
EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT
HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
ANCILLARY AGREEMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED
HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

            27. Revival. The Companies further agree that to the extent any
Company makes a payment or payments to Laurus, which payment or payments or any
part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or
any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or
equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the
obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and
continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

            28. Borrowing Agency Provisions.

            (a) Each Company hereby irrevocably designates Company Agent to be
its attorney and agent and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse notes,
and execute and deliver all instruments, documents, writings and further
assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Company, and
hereby authorizes Laurus to pay over or credit all loan proceeds hereunder in
accordance with the request of Company Agent.

            (b) The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing facility
with a borrowing agent in the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely as an
accommodation to the Companies and at their request. Laurus shall not incur any
liability to any Company as a result thereof. To induce Laurus to do so and in
consideration thereof, each Company hereby indemnifies Laurus and holds Laurus
harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and
claims of damage or injury asserted against Laurus by any Person arising from or
incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements of the
Companies as provided herein, reliance by Laurus on any request or instruction
from Company Agent or any other action taken by Laurus with respect to this
Paragraph 28.

            (c) All Obligations shall be joint and several, and the Companies
shall make payment upon the maturity of the Obligations by acceleration or
otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the part of the Companies shall
in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted by
Laurus to any Company, failure of Laurus to give any Company notice of borrowing
or any other notice, any failure of Laurus to pursue to preserve its rights
against any Company, the release by Laurus of any Collateral now or thereafter
acquired from any Company, and such agreement by any Company to pay upon any
notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected by prior recourse
by Laurus to any Company or any Collateral for such Company's Obligations or the
lack thereof.

            (d) Each Company expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which
such Company may now or hereafter have against the other or other Person
directly or contingently liable for the Obligations, or against or with respect
to any other's property (including, without limitation, any

                                       39
<PAGE>

property which is Collateral for the Obligations), arising from the existence or
performance of this Agreement, until all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid
in full and this Agreement has been irrevocably terminated.

            (e) Each Company represents and warrants to Laurus that (i)
Companies have one or more common shareholders, directors and officers, (ii) the
businesses and corporate activities of Companies are closely related to, and
substantially benefit, the business and corporate activities of Companies, (iii)
the financial and other operations of Companies are performed on a combined
basis as if Companies constituted a consolidated corporate group, (iv) Companies
will receive a substantial economic benefit from entering into this Agreement
and will receive a substantial economic benefit from the application of each
Loan hereunder, in each case, whether or not such amount is used directly by any
Company and (v) all requests for Loans hereunder by the Company Agent are for
the exclusive and indivisible benefit of the Companies as though, for purposes
of this Agreement, the Companies constituted a single entity.

            29. Notices. Any notice or request hereunder may be given to any
Company, Company Agent or Laurus at the respective addresses set forth below or

            30. Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Waiver of Jury Trial.

            (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.

            (b) EACH COMPANY HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR
FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL HAVE
EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN ANY
COMPANY, ON THE ONE HAND, AND LAURUS, ON THE OTHER HAND, PERTAINING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS; PROVIDED, THAT
LAURUS AND EACH COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE
TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF NEW
YORK; AND FURTHER PROVIDED, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR
OPERATE TO PRECLUDE LAURUS FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN
ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO COLLECT THE OBLIGATIONS, TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL
OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER
COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF LAURUS. EACH COMPANY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN

OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS. EACH COMPANY

ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS,

<PAGE>

            (c) THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE
APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE
BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL
RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE
ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE BETWEEN LAURUS,
AND/OR ANY COMPANY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE
RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY
ANCILLARY AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.

            31. Limitation of Liability. Each Company acknowledges and
understands that in order to assure repayment of the Obligations hereunder
Laurus may be required to exercise any and all of Laurus' rights and remedies
hereunder and agrees that, except as limited by applicable law, neither Laurus
nor any of Laurus' agents shall be liable for acts taken or omissions made in
connection herewith or therewith except for actual bad faith.

            32. Entire Understanding; Maximum Interest. This Agreement and the
Ancillary Agreements contain the entire understanding among each Company and
Laurus as to the subject matter hereof and thereof and any promises,
representations, warranties or guarantees not herein contained shall have no
force and effect unless in writing, signed by each Company's and Laurus'
respective officers. Neither this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, nor any
portion or provisions thereof may be changed, modified, amended, waived,
supplemented, discharged, cancelled or terminated orally or by any course of
dealing, or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing, signed by the
party to be charged. Nothing contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary
Agreement 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 rate 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 rate permitted by such law, any
payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the
Companies to Laurus and thus refunded to the Companies.

            33. Severability. Wherever possible each provision of this Agreement
or the Ancillary Agreements shall be interpreted in such manner as to be
effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement
or the Ancillary Agreements shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable
law such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions thereof.

            34. Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements made herein shall survive any investigation made by Laurus and the

properties or assets of the Parent, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Option as provided in Section 4. In the
event this Option does not continue in full force and effect after the
consummation of the transactions described in this Section 3, then the Parent's
securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the
Holders will be delivered to Holder or the Trustee as contemplated by Section
3.2.

      4. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the
Parent shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other distribution on outstanding Common Stock or any preferred stock issued by
the Parent, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine
its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of
the Common Stock (each of the preceding clauses (a) through (c), inclusive, an
"Event"), then, in each such event, the number of shares of Common Stock that
the Holder shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be
entitled to receive shall be increased or decreased to a number determined by
multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would, immediately prior
to such Event, be issuable upon the exercise of this Option by a fraction of
which (a) the numerator is the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock immediately after such Event, and (b) the denominator is the number of
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Event.

      5. Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or
readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the
exercise of the Option, the Parent at its expense will promptly cause its Chief
Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Option and prepare a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail
the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a
statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Parent for any
additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed
to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Exercise Price
and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this
Option, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as
adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Option. The Parent will forthwith
mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and any Option agent of the
Parent (appointed pursuant to Section 10 hereof).

      6. Reservation of Stock, Etc., Issuable on Exercise of Option. The Parent
will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery
on the exercise of the Option, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from
time to time issuable on the exercise of the Option.

      7. Assignment; Exchange of Option. Subject to compliance with applicable
securities laws, this Option, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be
transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor") in whole or in
part. On the surrender for exchange of this Option, with the Transferor's
endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the "Transferor
Endorsement Form") and together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Parent demonstrating compliance with applicable securities laws, which shall
include, without limitation, the provision of a legal opinion from the
Transferor's counsel (at the Parent's expense) that such transfer is exempt from
the registration requirements of applicable securities laws, and with payment by
the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on
the order of the Transferor thereof a new Option of like tenor, in the name of
the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement
Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces
thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces
of the Option so surrendered by the Transferor.

      8. Replacement of Option. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Parent of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Option and,
in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Option, on delivery
of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount
to the Parent or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and
cancellation of this Option, the Parent at its expense will execute and deliver,
in lieu thereof, a new Option of like tenor.

      9. Registration Rights. The Holder has been granted certain registration
rights by the Parent. These registration rights are set forth in a Registration
Rights Agreement entered into by the Parent and Holder dated as of even date of
this Option.

      10. Option Agent. The Parent may, by written notice to each Holder of the
Option, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other
Securities) on the exercise of this Option pursuant to Section 1, exchanging
this Option pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Option pursuant to Section
8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or
replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.

      11. Transfer on the Parent's Books. Until this Option is transferred on
the books of the Parent, the Parent may treat the registered holder hereof as
the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary.

      12. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications from the Parent to
the Holder shall be mailed by first class registered or certified mail, postage
prepaid, at such address as may have been furnished to the Parent in writing by
such Holder or, until any such Holder furnishes to the Parent an address, then
to, and at the address of, the last Holder who has so furnished an address to
the Parent.

      13. Miscellaneous. THIS OPTION AND ANY TERM HEREOF MAY BE CHANGED, WAIVED,
DISCHARGED OR TERMINATED ONLY BY AN INSTRUMENT IN WRITING SIGNED BY THE PARTY
AGAINST WHICH ENFORCEMENT OF SUCH CHANGE, WAIVER, DISCHARGE OR TERMINATION IS
SOUGHT. THIS OPTION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS. Any
action brought concerning the transactions contemplated by this Option shall be
brought only in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in
the state of New York; provided, however, that the Holder may choose to waive
this provision and bring an action outside the state of New York. The
individuals executing this Option on behalf of the Parent agree to submit to the
jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall
be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and
costs. In the event that any provision of this Option 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 this Option. The
headings in this Option are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit
or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. The invalidity or unenforceability
of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of
any other provision hereof. The Parent acknowledges that legal counsel
participated in the preparation of this Option and, therefore, stipulates that
the rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be applied in the interpretation of this Option to
favor any party against the other party.
