      operation of its business makes such licensing or qualification necessary
      or desirable, except to the extent that the failure to be so licensed or

      transactions contemplated by, this Agreement and the other Transaction
      Documents or (y) adversely affect the ability of the Company and the
      Subsidiaries to conduct its business, and all such jurisdictions are set

            similar ownership interests and the current ownership of such
            shares, partnership interests or similar ownership interests.

                        (ii) Other than the Subsidiaries, there are no other

            Subsidiaries and except as set forth in Section 3.1(b)(ii) of the
            Disclosure Schedule, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a
            member of (nor is any part of its business conducted through) any

            consummate the transactions contemplated by, this Agreement and the
            other Transaction Documents or (y) adversely affect the ability of

            so licensed or qualified and in good standing would not (x)
            adversely affect the ability of the Company to carry out its
            obligations under, and to consummate the transactions contemplated
            by, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or (y)
            adversely affect the ability of the Company and the Subsidiaries to
            conduct its business.

                        (iv) All corporate actions taken by each Subsidiary have
            been duly authorized and no Subsidiary has taken any action that in
            any respect conflicts with, constitutes a default under or results
            in a violation of any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation
            or By-laws (or similar organizational documents). True and complete
            copies of the certificate of incorporation and by-laws (or similar

            to issue or sell any Shares or Preferred Shares, or any other
            interest in, the Company. There are no outstanding contractual

            accurately records, in all material respects: (A) the name and
            address of each Person owning shares of Common Stock or Preferred
            Stock and (B) the certificate number of each certificate evidencing

                  (iii) All the outstanding shares of capital stock of each
            Subsidiary that is a corporation are validly issued, fully paid,
            nonassessable and, except with respect to wholly owned Subsidiaries,
            free of preemptive rights and are owned by the Company, whether
            directly or indirectly, free and clear of all Encumbrances. There

            other interest in, any Subsidiary. There are no voting trusts,

            Subsidiary.

                  (iv) The stock register of each Subsidiary accurately records:
            (A) the name and address of each Person owning shares of capital
            stock of such Subsidiary and (B) the certificate number of each
            certificate evidencing shares of capital stock issued by such
            Subsidiary, the number of shares evidenced by each such certificate,
            the date of issuance thereof and, in the case of cancellation, the

                  (v) The Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares are duly
            authorized and reserved for issuance and, upon conversion of the
            Preferred Shares and exercise of the warrants in accordance with the
            terms thereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
            and free from all Encumbrances and will not be subject to preemptive
            rights or similar rights of stockholders of the Company and will not
            impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

                  (vi) The Company understands and acknowledges the potentially
            dilutive effect to the Common Stock upon the issuance of the
            Conversion Shares upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the
            Preferred Shares and upon the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon
            the exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the Warrants. The Company
            further acknowledges that its obligation to issue Conversion Shares
            upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the Preferred Shares and
            Warrant Shares upon the exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the
            Warrants in accordance with this Agreement, the Certificate of
            Designation and the Warrants is absolute, subject only to the terms
            and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of

      the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other
      Transaction Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated
      hereby or thereby.

            Labor Relations. No material labor dispute exists or, to the
      knowledge of the Company, is imminent with respect to any of the employees
      of the Company which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material

            Compliance. (i) Except as set forth in Section 3.1(k)(i) of the
      Disclosure Schedule and to the best knowledge of the Company, after due
      inquiry, the Company and the Subsidiaries have each conducted and continue
      to conduct its business in accordance with all Laws and Governmental
      Orders applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or the Assets, and

            a brief description of each Governmental Order applicable to the
            Company, any Subsidiary or the Assets, and no such Governmental
            Order has or has had a Material Adverse Effect or could affect the
            legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any
            Ancillary Agreement or the consummation of the transactions
            contemplated hereby or thereby.

                  (iii) To the best knowledge of the Company, after due inquiry,
            none of the Company, any Subsidiary or any officer, director,
            employee, agent or representative of the Company or any Subsidiary
            has furthered or supported any foreign boycott in violation of the
            Anti-Boycott laws and regulations of the United States promulgated

      certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate
      federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to
      conduct their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports,
      except where the failure to possess such permits could not have or
      reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect ("Material
      Permits"), and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any
      notice of Actions relating to the revocation or modification of any
      Material Permit.

            Material Contracts. Except as set forth in Section 3.1(m) of the
      Disclosure Schedule, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to
      or bound by any "material contracts" (as such term is defined in Item
      601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K of the Commission) with respect to the
      Company or any Subsidiary. All contracts described in this Section 3.1(m)
      are valid and in full force and effect except to the extent they have
      previously expired in accordance with their terms or if the failure to be
      in full force and effect, individually or in the aggregate, would not
      reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the
      Company nor any Subsidiary has violated any provision of, or committed or
      failed to perform any act which with or without notice, lapse of time or
      both would constitute a default under the provisions of, any contract
      described above, except in each case for those violations and defaults
      which, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected
      to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

            agreement or similar agreement or contract relating in any way to
            the protection, ownership, development, use or transfer of

and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as
follows:

            Organization; Authority. Purchaser is an entity duly organized,
      validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction
      of its organization with full right, corporate or partnership power and
      authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by
      the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations
      thereunder.

                                       55
<PAGE>

      The execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of the transactions
      contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary
      corporate or similar action on the part of Purchaser. Each Transaction
      Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by Purchaser, and,
      assuming this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation of
      the Company and when delivered by Purchaser in accordance with the terms
      hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of
      Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as
      the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
      fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating
      to or affecting the rights of creditors' generally and by general
      equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is
      considered in a Action in equity or at law).

            Investment Intent. Purchaser understands that the Securities are
      "restricted securities" and have not been registered under the Securities
      Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities
      as principal for its own account for investment purposes only and not with
      a view to or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part
      thereof, has no present intention of distributing any of such Securities
      and has no arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding
      the distribution of such Securities (this representation and warranty not
      limiting Purchaser's right to sell the Securities pursuant to the
      Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal
      and state securities laws). Purchaser is acquiring the Securities
      hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Purchaser does not have
      any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to
      distribute any of the Securities.

            Rule 144. Purchaser understands that the Securities must be held
      indefinitely unless such Securities are registered under the Securities
      Act or an exemption from registration is available. Purchaser acknowledges
      that it is familiar with Rule 144, and that Purchaser has been advised
      that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain circumstances. Purchaser
      understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is not available, Purchaser
      will be unable to sell any Securities without either registration under
      the Securities Act or the existence of another exemption from such
      registration requirement.

            Purchaser Status. At the time Purchaser was offered the Securities,
      it was, and at the date hereof it is, and on each date on which it
      exercises any Warrants, it will be either: (i) an "accredited investor" as
      defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) under the
      Securities Act or (ii) a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in
      Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act. Purchaser is not required to be
      registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.

            Experience of Purchaser. Purchaser, either alone or together with
      its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in
      business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the
      merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, and has
      so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Purchaser is able to
      bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities and, at the
      present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

            General. Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered
      and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration
      requirements of federal and state securities laws and the Company is
      relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties,
      agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Purchaser set forth
      herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the
      suitability of Purchaser to acquire the Securities. Purchaser understands
      that no United States federal or state agency or any government or
      governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or
      endorsement of the Securities.

            General Solicitation. Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as
      a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication
      regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar
      media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or
      any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

      The Company acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser does not make or has
not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions

      compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any
      transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration
      statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or
      in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company

      counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the
      Company, the form and substance of which opinion and shall be reasonably
      satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not
      require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities
      Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in
      writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the
      rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights
      Agreement.

            Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this
      Section 4.1(b), of a legend on any of the Securities in the following
      form:

      THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
      COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN
      EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
      (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD
      EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE
      SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A
      TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
      SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS
      EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT,
      THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.
      THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A CERTAIN
      SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, A CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS' AGREEMENT AND A
      CERTAIN REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, ALL OF WHICH ARE DATED FEBRUARY 11,
      2005 AND ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY.

            Certificates evidencing the Shares, Preferred Shares, Conversion
      Shares and Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the
      legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)), (i) while a registration statement
      (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such
      security is effective under the Securities Act, or (ii) following a sale
      of such Shares, Preferred Shares, Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares
      pursuant to an effective registration statement (including the
      Registration Statement), or (iii) following any sale of such Shares,
      Preferred Shares, Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares Shares pursuant to
      Rule 144, or (iv) if such Shares, Preferred Shares, Conversion Shares or
      Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (v) if such
      legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act
      (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff
      of the Commission); provided, however, that in each of instances (iii)
      through (v) above, (A) Purchaser shall have provided representations that
      Purchaser is permitted to dispose of such Shares, Preferred Shares,
      Conversion Shares and/or Warrant Shares without limitation as to amount or
      manner of sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act and (B) such
      certificates evidencing the Shares, Preferred Shares, Conversion Shares
      and/or Warrant Shares shall have been surrendered along with a notice
      requesting removal of any legend and requesting the issuance of new
      certificates free of the legend to replace those surrendered. The Company
      shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company's transfer
      agent promptly after the Effective Date if required by the Company's
      transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or
      any portion of a Preferred Share or Warrant is exercised at a time when
      there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the
      Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, such Conversion Shares or Warrant
      Shares shall be issued free of all legends.

      INTEGRATION. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, the
Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise
negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities
Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a
manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale
of the Securities to Purchaser or that would be integrated with the offer or
sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any exchange
or quotation service on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or
quoted such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of
such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the
closing of such subsequent transaction.

      DESCRIPTION OF THE SENIOR SECURED NOTE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT.

      The following summary of the Senior Secured Note and Security Agreement is
provided for illustrative purposes only. To the extent there are any
inconsistencies between the summary below and the Senior Secured Note and/or
Security Agreement, such agreements shall control.

            (a) Maturity. The Company shall pay Purchaser the outstanding
principal amount of the Senior Secured Note, together with all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, on the earliest to occur (the "Maturity Date") of (i)
thirty-six (36) months following the Closing Date, (ii) a merger or combination
of the Company or the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company or (iii) the acquisition by a
single entity, person or a "group" within the meaning of Rule 13d-1 of the
Exchange Act, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power or capital
stock of the Company (on a fully-diluted basis).

            (b) Interest. The Senior Secured Note shall bear interest
("Interest") at a rate per annum as follows:

                                       57
<PAGE>

          Months 1-12 of the Senior Secured Note      6% per annum
          Months 13-24 of the Senior Secured Note     9% per annum
          Months 25-36 of the Senior Secured Note     12% per annum

Interest shall be payable quarterly in cash. If any Event of Default (as defined
in the Senior Secured Note) has occurred and is continuing, the Senior Secured
Note shall bear interest at a rate of the then-applicable Interest plus four
percent (4%) per annum until such time as such Event of Default has been cured.

            (c) Prepayment. The Senior Secured Note may be prepaid, in whole or
in part, at any time without penalty or premium, upon ten (10) days' prior
written notice to Purchaser. In the event the Company issues any Exempt Issuance
of securities during the term of the Senior Secured Note, the Company shall use
at least fifty percent (50%) of the proceeds therefrom to prepay the Senior
Secured Note; provided, however, that the Preferred Shares have been redeemed,
in whole, in accordance with its terms.

            (d) Security and Ranking. The Senior Secured Note and all other
obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents shall be secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, as
described in the Security Agreement (collectively, the "Collateral"), dated as
of even date herewith, by and between Purchaser and the Company. As an
inducement to Purchaser to purchase the Senior Secured Note and the other
Securities described herein and execute and enter into this Agreement, and to
secure prompt payment of the Senior Secured Note and the discharge in full of
the Company's obligations under this Agreement and under the Senior Secured
Note, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Company shall
grant to Purchaser a first priority perfected lien and security interest in the
Collateral, which security interest shall rank senior in lien priority to any
other existing or future Indebtedness.

      (as defined in the Senior Secured Note), the Company shall notify
      Purchaser of such Event of Default, the circumstances causing such default

      default.

      (b) Negative Covenants. The Company covenants that, so long as any portion
of the Senior Secured Note or the Preferred Shares is outstanding, it shall not
take any of the following actions without the prior written consent of
Purchaser, which may not be withheld unreasonably:

      any employee benefit plan, or otherwise increase the compensation or
      benefits of any director, officer or other employee of such party or any
      of its subsidiaries, except for normal increases in compensation and
      benefits in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice
      that, in the aggregate, do not result in a material increase in benefits
      or compensation expense to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a
      whole, (B) enter into or amend any employment, severance or special pay
      arrangement with respect to the termination of employment or other similar

Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any
other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or
counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material
non-public information, unless prior thereto Purchaser shall have executed a
written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The
Company understands and confirms that Purchaser shall be relying on the
foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the
Company.

Board Composition. Purchaser shall have the right to designate two (2)
representatives (the "Designees") for election to the Company's Board, both of
whom shall not have been involved in any of the events set forth in Item 401(f)
of Regulation S-K during the preceding ten (10) year and shall be qualified to
serve as directors of a reporting company under the Exchange Act as determined
by a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors
established for such purpose and at least one of whom shall satisfy the Nasdaq
National Market requirements for an "independent director." Such "independent"
Designee shall be appointed to the Company's Compensation Committee, and any
future increases in the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, or
additional grants of options to the Chief Executive Officer (except Replacement
Options), shall only be approved by unanimous consent of the Company's
Compensation Committee. The Company shall use its best efforts to have the
Designees nominated and elected to the Board. Additional Covenants of the
Company.

      (a) For a period equal to the shorter of (i) three (3) years from the
Closing Date and (ii) such time as Purchaser beneficially owns less than
5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (on an as converted basis), the Company shall
not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible or
exchangeable into Common Stock, for an effective per share price of less than
$0.25, without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

      (b) The Company shall not incur Indebtedness, other than in connection
with an asset-based senior line of credit, without the prior written consent of
Purchaser.

Certain Transactions. Purchaser and its Affiliates agree not to engage in any
"going private" transaction (including, without limitation, selling all or
substantially all of the Company's assets, merging the Company, or any other
transaction with similar economic effects) with the Company, without the prior
written consent of MacIntosh.

Pre-emptive Rights. For so long as Purchaser owns more than 5,000,000 shares of
Common Stock (on an as converted basis) and in the event the Company proposes to
issue or sell any shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible or
exchangeable into Common Stock, Purchaser shall have the right (but not the
obligation) to purchase such number of securities from the Company, on the same
terms and conditions offered by the Company, in order to maintain its percentage
ownership in the Company; it being understood that Purchaser shall have ten (10)
Business Days from its receipt of written notice from the Company containing
sufficient details with respect to such issuance or sale to exercise its rights
hereunder.

Indemnification.

      (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, its officers,
directors, employees, agents and consultants (each, a "Purchaser Indemnified
Party"), from and against any and all costs, claims, damages, losses,
liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) (together, the
"Losses") which may be suffered or incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Party
by reason of (i) any material misrepresentation or breach of warranty by the
Company in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or (ii) any
material default of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Company under
this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, in each case so long as such
Losses were not caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Purchaser Indemnified Party.

      (b) Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its
officers, directors, employees, agents and consultants (each, a "Company
Indemnified Party"), from and against any and all Losses which may be suffered
or incurred by such Company Indemnified Party by reason of any material
misrepresentation or breach of warranty by Purchaser in this Agreement or the
other Transaction Documents, so long as such Losses were not caused by the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Company Indemnified Party.

      (c) An Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of any
matter which an Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to
a right of indemnification under this Agreement, within thirty (30) days of such
determination, stating the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of
computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this
Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or
arises.

      (d) If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any action, audit,
claim, demand or assessment (each, a "Third Party Claim") against it which may
give rise to a claim for Loss under this Section 4.10, within thirty (30) days
of the receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying
Party notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to
provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its
obligations under this Section 4.10 except to the extent that such failure
results in a detriment to the Indemnifying Party and shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party from any other liability that it may have to any Indemnified
Party other than under this Section 4.10. The Indemnifying Party shall be
entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its
expense and through counsel of its choice if it gives notice of its intention to
do so to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of the receipt of such
notice from the Indemnified Party.

                                       61
<PAGE>

If the Indemnifying Party elects to undertake any such defense against a
Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its
own expense. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party
in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the
Indemnifying Party's expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and
information in the Indemnified Party's possession or under the Indemnified
Party's control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying
Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to direct the defense of any such claim
or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall not pay, or permit to be paid, any
part of such Third Party Claim unless the Indemnifying Party consents in writing
to such payment or unless the Indemnifying Party withdraws from the defense of
such Third Party Claim liability or unless a final judgment from which no appeal
may be taken by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Party is entered against the
Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party assumes
the defense of any such claims or proceeding pursuant to this Section 4.10(d)
and proposes to settle such claims or proceeding prior to a final judgment
thereon or to forgo any appeal with respect thereto, then the Indemnified Party
shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof and the
Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in the settlement or
assume or reassume the defense of such claims or proceeding.

"Key Man" Life Insurance. Within forty-five (45) days from the Closing Date, the
Company shall have obtained "key man" life insurance on the life of MacIntosh in
an amount between $2,500,000 and $5,000,000, subject to commercially reasonable
availability, costs and terms of such insurance as approved by MacIntosh
Reservation of Common Stock.

As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and the Company shall continue
to reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights, a
sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the
Company to issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Conversion Shares
pursuant to any conversion of the Preferred Shares and the Warrant Shares
pursuant to any exercise of the Warrants.

MISCELLANEOUS

Fees and Expenses. On the Closing Date, the Company shall pay Purchaser a
closing fee (the "Closing Fee") equal to Two Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars
($240,000), by check or wire transfer. The Company and Purchaser shall be
responsible for their respective costs and expenses incurred in connection with
this transaction.

Rights Upon Termination. So long as Purchaser has proceeded in
good faith to consummate this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby, in the event the Company elects not to consummate this transaction for
any reason prior to February 11, 2005, the Company shall pay to Purchaser a
financial advisory and structuring fee (the "Advisory Fee") equal to Five
Thousand Dollars ($500,000) which shall, at the sole option of Purchaser, be
payable in cash or shares of Common Stock valued at $0.25 per share of Common
Stock. Upon the Company's election to terminate this transaction, Purchaser
shall have ten (10) days in which to make an election to receive either cash or
shares of Common Stock from the Company. Any Advisory Fee that becomes due shall
be payable to Purchaser within five (5) days following Purchaser's receipt of
notice from the Company that the Company has elected not to consummate this
transaction. Any Advisory Fee paid pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be in
addition to any expenses and costs payable by the Company to Purchaser in
accordance with Section 5.1 hereof. The Company hereby acknowledges that, in the
event the Company is required to pay the Advisory Fee in accordance with this
Section 5.2, the Company shall be deemed to have received advisory services from
Purchaser in consideration of such Advisory Fee. In the event Purchaser does not

Company and Purchaser or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom
enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default with respect
to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to
be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a

impair the exercise of any such right.

Construction. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a
part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the
provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the
language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of
strict construction will be applied against any party.

      5.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The
Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Purchaser may assign any or all

No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not
for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.8.

Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement
and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party
hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and
federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan for the
adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any
transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to
the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or Action, any claim that
it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court or that such
Action is improper or inconvenient venue for such Action. Each party hereby
irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being
served in any such Action by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the
address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such
service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right

any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then the prevailing party in such
Action shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys' fees and other
costs and expenses reasonably incurred with the investigation, preparation and
prosecution of such Action.

Survival. Unless this Agreement is terminated under Section 5.2 hereof, all
agreements, representations, warranties and covenants contained herein shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the closing of the
transactions contemplated hereby until (i) Purchaser owns less than 5,000,000
shares of Common Stock (on an as converted basis) or (ii) the pay-off of the
Senior Secured Note, whichever occurs later.

Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all
of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and
shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and
delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not
sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by
facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding
obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page
were an original thereof.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or
unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining
terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and
enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so
agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction
Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option
under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related
obligations within the periods therein provided, then Purchaser may rescind or
withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the
Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without
prejudice to its future actions and rights.

Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any
Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or
cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation
thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or
instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable
indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument
under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs
associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.

Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein
or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of Purchaser and the
Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction
Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate
compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations
described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for
specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law
would be adequate.

Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to
Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or
exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of
such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged
by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company,
a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without
limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable
cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or
part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

severally represents, warrants and agrees that:

            2.1. Debtor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
      good standing under the laws of the state of Minnesota, and the state of
      Minnesota has been Debtor's state of organization since the date of
      Debtor's organization. Debtor has full power and authority to execute this
      Agreement, to perform Debtor's obligations hereunder and to subject the
      Collateral to the Security Interest. Debtor's taxpayer identification
      number is the number shown at the beginning of this Agreement. Debtor's
      organizational identification number is the number shown at the beginning
      of this Agreement.

            2.2. Debtor's chief place of business is, and has been for the five
      years preceding the date of this Agreement, located at the address shown
      at the beginning of this Agreement. Debtor's records concerning its
      accounts and contract rights are kept at such address. The Collateral is
      located at the address shown at the beginning of this Agreement, and there
      are no other locations where any of the Collateral may be kept except as
      set forth on Schedule 2.2 hereto. All Collateral has been located at the
      address shown at the beginning of this Agreement or at the locations set
      forth on Schedule 2.2, for the five years prior to execution of this
      Agreement. Debtor will give at least 30 days' advance written notice to
      Secured Party of any change in Debtor's jurisdiction of organization or
      chief place of business and any change in or addition of any Collateral
      location. Debtor will take all such actions as Secured Party may
      reasonably request to permit Secured Party to establish and perfect the
      Security Interest in all jurisdictions Secured Party deems necessary,
      including but not limited to the execution, delivery or endorsement of any
      and all instruments, documents, assignments, security agreements and other
      agreements and writings that Secured Party may at any time reasonably
      request in order to secure, protect, perfect or enforce the Security
      Interest and Secured Party's rights under this Agreement.

            2.3. Debtor has (or will have at the time Debtor acquires rights in
      Collateral hereafter arising) absolute title to each item of Collateral
      free and clear of all security interests, liens and encumbrances. Debtor
      will keep all Collateral free and clear of all security interests, liens
      and encumbrances except the Security Interest, and will defend the
      Collateral against all claims or demands of all persons other than Secured
      Party. Debtor will promptly pay or properly and timely contest all taxes
      and other governmental charges levied or assessed upon or against any
      Collateral or upon or against the creation, perfection or continuance of
      the Security Interest.

                                       68
<PAGE>

            2.4. Until the Obligations are satisfied in full, Debtor will not,
      without Secured Party's prior written consent, sell any of the Collateral
      or enter into any agreement that is inconsistent with Debtor's obligations
      or Secured Party's rights under this Agreement, except that Debtor may
      sell or discard the Collateral in the ordinary course of business so long
      as such agreements are not inconsistent with Secured Party's rights or
      Debtor's obligations under this Agreement. Debtor further agrees that it
      will not take any action, or permit any action to be taken by others under
      its control, or fail to take any action, that would affect the validity of
      the Collateral or enforcement of Secured Party's rights in the Collateral.
      In addition, Debtor agrees not to enter into any instruments, chattel
      paper, letters of credit or other documents, including but not limited to
      promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and trade acceptances, which
      expressly prohibit assignment for security purposes.

            2.5. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized by all
      necessary action by Debtor.

            2.6. Debtor will keep all tangible Collateral in good repair,
      working order and condition, normal depreciation excepted, and will, from
      time to time, replace any worn, broken or defective parts thereof.

            2.7. Debtor will at all reasonable times permit Secured Party or its
      representatives to examine or inspect any Collateral, wherever located,
      and to examine, inspect and copy Debtor's books and records pertaining to
      the Collateral and its business and financial condition.

            2.8. If Secured Party at any time so requests after the occurrence
      of an Event of Default, Debtor will promptly transfer to Secured Party any
      instrument, document, chattel paper, or investment properties constituting
      the Collateral, duly endorsed or assigned by Debtor.

            2.9. Debtor will keep accurate and complete records pertaining to
      the Collateral and pertaining to Debtor's business and financial condition
      and submit to Secured Party such periodic reports concerning the
      Collateral and Debtor's business and financial condition as Secured Party
      may from time to time reasonably request.

            2.10. Debtor will at all times keep all tangible Collateral insured
      against risks of fire (including so-called extended coverage), theft, and
      such other risks and in such amounts as Secured Party may reasonably
      request, with any loss payable to Secured Party to the extent of its
      interest.

            2.11. Debtor will pay when due or reimburse Secured Party on demand
      for all costs of collection of any of the Obligations and all other
      out-of-pocket expenses (including all reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred
      by Secured Party in connection with the creation, perfection,
      satisfaction, protection, defense or enforcement of the Security Interest
      or the creation, continuance, protection, defense or enforcement of this
      Agreement or any or all of the Obligations, including expenses incurred in
      any litigation or bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.

            2.12. The Obligations have been incurred and the Collateral will be
      used primarily for business purposes.

            2.13. All rights to payment and all instruments, documents, chattel
      papers and other agreements constituting or evidencing Collateral are (or
      will be when arising or issued) the valid, genuine and legally enforceable
      obligation, subject to no defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than
      those arising in the ordinary course of business) of each account debtor
      or other obligor named therein or in Debtor's records pertaining thereto
      as being obligated to pay such obligation. Debtor will not agree to any
      modification, amendment or cancellation of any such obligation without
      Secured Party's prior written consent except discounts provided by Debtor
      in the ordinary course of business, and will not subordinate any such
      right to payment to claims of other creditors of such account debtor or
      other obligor.

            2.14. Debtor will promptly notify Secured Party of any material loss
      of or damage to any Collateral or of any adverse change in the prospect of
      payment of any material sums due on or under any instrument, chattel
      paper, account or contract right constituting Collateral.

            2.15. Debtor will from time to time execute such financing
      statements or control agreements as Secured Party may reasonably deem
      necessary in order to perfect the Security Interest and, if any Collateral
      is covered by a certificate of title, execute such documents as may be
      required to have the Security Interest properly noted on a certificate of
      title. In addition, Debtor authorizes Secured Party to file any financing
      statement the Secured Party deems necessary, describing any liens held by
      Secured Party. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in
      the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or
      description of the Collateral that describes such property in any other
      manner as the Secured Party may determine, in its reasonable discretion,
      is necessary to ensure the perfection of the Security Interest, including,
      without limitation, describing such property as "all assets" or "all
      personal property."

                                       69

            2.16 Debtor will not use or keep any Collateral, or permit it to be
      used or kept, for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any federal,
      state or local law, statute or ordinance.

            2.17. If Debtor at any time fails to perform or observe any
      agreement contained in this Section 2, and if such failure shall continue
      for a period of 30 calendar days after Secured Party gives Debtor written
      notice thereof, Secured Party may (but need not) perform or observe such
      agreement on behalf and in the name, place and stead of Debtor (or, at
      Secured Party's option, in Secured Party's own name) and may (but need
      not) take any and all other actions that Secured Party may reasonably deem
      necessary to cure or correct such failure. Debtor shall pay Secured Party
      on demand the amount of all monies expended and all costs and expenses
      (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Secured Party in
      connection with or as a result of Secured Party's performing or observing
      such agreements or taking such actions, together with interest thereon
      from the date expended or incurred by Secured Party at the highest rate
      then applicable to any of the Obligations. To facilitate the performance
      or observance by Secured Party of such agreements of Debtor (in the event
      Debtor does not cure any such failure during the above-described 30-day
      period), Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints (which appointment is coupled
      with an interest) Secured Party, or its delegate, as the attorney-in-fact
      of Debtor 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 Debtor, any and all instruments, documents, financing
      statements, and other agreements and writings required to be obtained,
      executed, delivered or endorsed by Debtor under this Section 2.

      3. Account Verification and Collection Rights of Secured Party. Secured
Party shall have the right to verify any accounts in the name of Debtor or in
Secured Party's own name; and Debtor, whenever requested pursuant to the terms
of this Section, shall furnish Secured Party with duplicate statements of the
accounts, which statements may be mailed or delivered by Secured Party for that
purpose. Secured Party may at any time after the occurrence of an Event of
Default notify any account debtor, or any other person obligated to pay any
amount due, that such chattel paper, account, or other right to payment has been
assigned or transferred to Secured Party for security and shall be paid directly
to Secured Party. If Secured Party so requests at any time after the occurrence
of an Event of Default, Debtor will so notify such account debtors and other
obligors in writing and will indicate on all invoices to such account debtors or
other obligors that the amount due is payable directly to Secured Party. At any
time after Secured Party or Debtor gives such notice to an account debtor or
other obligor, Secured Party may (but need not), in Secured Party's own name or
in Debtor's name, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at
any time payable or receivable on account of, or securing, any such chattel
paper, account, or other right to payment, or grant any extension to, make any
compromise or settlement with or otherwise agree to waive, modify, amend or
change the obligations (including collateral obligations) of any such account
debtor or other obligor.

      4. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall, at the
sole option of the Secured Party, be an Event of Default:

            A. Any "Event of Default" (as defined in such agreement) by Debtor
      under the Note or any other agreement evidencing the Obligations, which
      default is not cured within any grace period granted with respect to such
      default or, if no specific grace period is granted with respect to such
      default, where such default is not cured within five (5) business days
      after written notice thereof from the Secured Party;

            B. Debtor's failure to comply with any representation, warranty or
      covenant hereunder if not cured within thirty (30) days after written
      notice;

            C. Transfer or disposition of any of the Collateral, except as
      permitted by this Agreement; or

            D. Attachment, execution or levy on any of the Collateral.

      5. Remedies upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default and at any time thereafter, Secured Party may exercise any one or more
of the following rights and remedies:

            5.1. declare all Obligations to be immediately due and payable,
      which shall then be immediately due and payable, without presentment or
      other notice or demand;

            5.2. exercise and enforce any or all rights and remedies available
      upon default to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code,
      including but not limited to the right to take possession of any
      Collateral, proceeding without judicial process if permitted by law or by
      judicial process, and the right to use, sell, lease or otherwise dispose
      of any or all of the Collateral, and in connection therewith, Secured
      Party may require Debtor to make the Collateral available to Secured Party
      at a place to be designated by Secured Party that is reasonably convenient
      to both parties, and if notice to Debtor of any intended disposition of
      Collateral or any other intended action is required by law in a particular
      instance, such notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable if given (in
      the manner specified in Section 8.2) at least 10 business days prior to
      the date of intended disposition or other action; or

                                       70
<PAGE>

            5.3. exercise or enforce any or all other rights or remedies
      available to Secured Party by law or agreement against the Collateral,
      including specifically the right to use the Collateral, against Debtor or
      against any other person or property.

All rights and remedies of Secured Party shall be cumulative and may be
exercised singularly or concurrently, at Secured Party's option, and the
exercise or enforcement of any one such right or remedy shall neither be a
condition to nor bar the exercise or enforcement of any other.

      6. Other Personal Property. Unless at the time Secured Party takes
possession of any tangible Collateral, or within seven days thereafter, Debtor
gives written notice to Secured Party of the existence of any goods, papers or
other property of Debtor, not affixed to or constituting a part of such
Collateral, but which are located or found upon or within such Collateral,
Secured Party shall not be responsible or liable to Debtor for any action taken
or omitted by or on behalf of Secured Party with respect to such property
without actual knowledge of the existence of any such property or without actual
knowledge that it was located or to be found upon or within such Collateral.

      7. Assignment of Insurance. Debtor hereby assigns to Secured Party, as
additional security for the payment of the Obligations, any and all moneys
(including but not limited to proceeds of insurance and refunds of unearned
premiums) due or to become due under, and all other rights of Debtor under or
with respect to, any and all policies of insurance covering the Collateral, and
Debtor hereby directs the issuer of any such policy to pay any such moneys
directly to Secured Party. Both before and after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Secured Party may (but need not), in Secured Party's own name or in
Debtor's name, execute and deliver proofs of claim, receive all such moneys,
endorse checks and other instruments representing payment of such moneys, and
adjust, litigate, compromise or release any claim against the issuer of any such
policy.

      8. Miscellaneous.

            8.1. This Agreement can be waived, modified, amended, terminated or
      discharged, and the Security Interest can be released, only explicitly in
      a writing signed by Secured Party. A waiver signed by Secured Party shall
      be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
      given. Mere delay or failure to act shall not preclude the exercise or
      enforcement of any of Secured Party's rights or remedies.

            8.2. All notices to be given to Debtor shall be deemed sufficiently
      given if delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail, postage
      prepaid, to Debtor at its address set forth above or at such other address
      as Debtor may subsequently provide to Secured Party.

            8.3. Secured Party's duty of care with respect to Collateral in its
      possession (as imposed by law) shall be deemed fulfilled if Secured Party
      exercises reasonable care in physically safekeeping such Collateral or, in
      the case of Collateral in the custody or possession of a bailee or other
      third person, exercises reasonable care in the selection of the bailee or
      other third person, and Secured Party need not otherwise preserve,
      protect, insure or care for any Collateral. Secured Party shall not be
      obligated to preserve any rights Debtor may have against prior parties, to
      realize on the Collateral at all or in any particular manner or order, or
      to apply any cash proceeds of Collateral in any particular order of
      application.

            8.4. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
      of Debtor and Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns
      and shall take effect when signed by Debtor and delivered to Secured
      Party, and Debtor waives notice of Secured Party's acceptance hereof.

            8.5. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement
      or of any financing statement signed by Debtor shall have the same force
      and effects as the original for all purposes of a financing statement.

            8.6. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the
      State of Minnesota. If any provision or application of this Agreement is
      held unlawful or unenforceable in any respect, such illegality or
      unenforceability shall not affect other provisions or applications which
      can be given effect and this Agreement shall be construed as if the
      unlawful or unenforceable provision or application had never been
      contained herein or prescribed hereby. Any dispute arising out of or
      relating to this Agreement, including the formation, interpretation or
      alleged breach hereof, shall be brought in the state or federal courts
      located in Hennepin County, Minnesota, and the parties hereto consent to
      the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

            8.7. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement
      shall survive the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
      and the creation and payment of the Obligations.
