          3.3   AUTHORIZATION. All corporate action on the part of the
Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the
authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated herein and therein has been taken. When executed and delivered

shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company,
enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as
rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal
securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws, and except as may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting
creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles. The Company
has all requisite corporate power to enter into this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement and to carry out and perform its obligations
under the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.

          3.4   VALID ISSUANCE OF THE SHARES. The Shares being purchased by

change (actual or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened) in the assets,

condition (financial or other) of the Company, other than the continued
incurrence of losses in the ordinary course of business.

          3.6   OFFERING MEMORANDUM. The information contained or
incorporated by reference in the Offering Memorandum is true and correct in
all material respects as of the date hereof; and the Offering Memorandum does
not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a

delivery or performance of this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and

any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company
or (ii) any agreement or instrument, permit, franchise, license, judgment,
order, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulations, applicable to the
Company or its properties or assets.

payable by the Company to one or more placement agents (consisting of a
commission of 5.25% of the gross proceeds, as well as reimbursement of

to the Company's knowledge, any investigation, pending, or to the Company's

and in which an unfavorable outcome, ruling or finding in any said matter, or
for all matters taken as a whole, would reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on the Company. The foregoing includes, without
limitation, any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation that questions
this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement or the right of the
Company to execute, deliver and perform under same.

     4.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS. Each Purchaser
severally for itself, and not jointly with the other Purchasers, represents and
warrants to the Company as follows:

 <PAGE>

          4.2   PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT, ETC. Such Purchaser is
acquiring the Shares for its own account, and not with a view to, or for sale
in connection with, any distribution of the Shares in violation of the
Securities Act. Except as contemplated by this Agreement, such Purchaser has
no present agreement, undertaking, arrangement, obligation or commitment
providing for the disposition of the Shares. Any Purchaser that is a
corporation or other entity represents that is has not been organized,
reorganized or recapitalized specifically for the purpose of investing in the
Shares. Such Purchaser agrees not to assign, sell, pledge, transfer or
otherwise dispose of or transfer any Shares unless registered under the
Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or an opinion is given

required; PROVIDED that no such opinion shall be required for any transfer of
Shares that is exempt from such registration under Rule 144(k) under the

condition is such that it is able to bear the risk of holding the Shares for
an indefinite period of time and the risk of loss of its entire investment.
Such Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and
receive answers from the management of the Company concerning this investment
and has sufficient knowledge and experience in investing in companies similar
to the Company in terms of the Company's stage of development so as to be
able to evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the Company.

          4.4   SHARES NOT REGISTERED. Such Purchaser understands that the
Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of their
issuance by the Company in a transaction exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, and that the Shares must continue to be
held by such Purchaser unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered
under the Securities Act or is exempt from such registration. The Purchaser
understands that the exemptions from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the
provisions of which are known to it) promulgated under the Securities Act
depend on the satisfaction of various conditions, and that, if applicable,
Rule 144 may afford the basis for sales only in limited amounts.

          4.5   NO CONFLICT. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and
the Registration Rights Agreement by such Purchaser and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not conflict with or
result in any violation of or default by such Purchaser (with or without
notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of
termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to a loss of a
material benefit under (i) any provision of the organizational documents of
such Purchaser or (ii) any agreement or instrument, permit, franchise,
license, judgment, order, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulations,
applicable to such Purchaser or its respective properties or assets.

          4.6   BROKERS. Such Purchaser has not retained, utilized or been
represented by any broker or finder in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

existence of, or reveal the status of, this Agreement or the transactions
provided for herein, without the prior consent of the other parties, which shall

provide the other parties with an opportunity to review and comment on any
proposed public announcement before it is made.

          7.2  FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each party agrees to cooperate fully with the
other party and to execute such further instruments, documents and agreements
and to give such further written assurances, as may be reasonably requested by
the other party to better evidence and reflect the transactions described herein
and contemplated hereby, and to carry into effect the intents and purposes of
this Agreement.

          7.3  RIGHTS CUMULATIVE. Each and all of the various rights, powers and
remedies of the parties shall be considered to be cumulative with and in
addition to any other rights, powers and remedies which such parties may have at
law or in equity in the event of the breach of any of the terms of this
Agreement. The exercise or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy shall
neither constitute the exclusive election thereof nor the waiver of any other
right, power or remedy available to such party.

          7.4  PRONOUNS. All pronouns or any variation thereof shall be
deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, singular or plural, as
the identity of the person, persons, entity or entities may require.

given hereunder shall be sent by postage prepaid first class mail, courier or

          7.7  SEVERABILITY. Should any part or provision of this Agreement
be held unenforceable or in conflict with the applicable laws or regulations
of any jurisdiction, the invalid or unenforceable part or provisions shall be
replaced with a provision which accomplishes, to the extent possible, the
original business purpose of such part or provision in a valid and
enforceable manner, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain binding
upon the parties hereto.

          7.8  GOVERNING LAW; INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.

          (a)  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal and substantive laws of Massachusetts and
without regard to any conflicts of laws concepts which would apply the
substantive law of some other jurisdiction.

          (b)  Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that
damages will not be an adequate remedy for any material breach or violation
of this Agreement if such material breach or violation would cause immediate
and irreparable harm (an "IRREPARABLE BREACH"). Accordingly, in the event of
a threatened or ongoing Irreparable Breach, each party hereto shall be
entitled to seek, in any state or federal court in Massachusetts, equitable
relief of a kind appropriate in light of the nature of the ongoing or
threatened Irreparable Breach, which relief may include, without limitation,
specific performance or injunctive relief; provided, however, that if the
party bringing such action is unsuccessful in obtaining the relief sought,
the moving party shall pay the non-moving party's reasonable costs, including
attorney's fees, incurred in connection with defending such action. Such
remedies shall not be the parties' exclusive remedies, but shall be in
addition to all other remedies provided in this Agreement.

          7.9  WAIVER. No waiver of any term, provision or condition of this
Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances,
shall be deemed to be, or be construed as, a further or continuing waiver of
any such term, provision or condition or as a waiver of any other term,
provision or condition of this Agreement.

          7.10 EXPENSES. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses in
connection with this Agreement.

          7.11 ASSIGNMENT. The rights and obligations of the parties hereto
shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the authorized
successors and permitted assigns of each party. Neither party may assign its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or designate another person (i) to
perform all or part of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) to have
all or part of its rights and benefits under this Agreement, in each case
without the prior written consent of the other party. In the event of any
assignment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the assignee shall
specifically assume and be bound by the provisions of the Agreement by
executing and agreeing to an assumption agreement reasonably acceptable to
the other party.

          7.12 SURVIVAL. The respective representations and warranties given
by the parties hereto, and the other covenants and agreements contained
herein, shall survive the

                                       10
<PAGE>

Closing Date and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein for
a period of two years, without regard to any investigation made by any party.

          7.13 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between the parties hereto respecting the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements, negotiations, understandings, representations
and statements respecting the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral.
No modification, alteration, waiver or change in any of the terms of this
Agreement shall be valid or binding upon the parties hereto unless made in
writing and duly executed by the Company and each of the Purchasers.
