                                    RECITALS

         WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue and sell to the Purchasers, and
the Purchasers propose to purchase from the Company an aggregate of 357,143

Series A Preferred Stock);

         WHEREAS, SCP proposes to commit to purchase an additional 71,429 shares
of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Option Preferred Stock") at the aggregate
purchase price of $5,000,030 ($70.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock) on

         WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue and sell to the Purchasers
warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase up to 42,857,149 shares of Common Stock at
an exercise price of $0.70 per share;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the
mutual promises hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto, intending to be
legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.       AUTHORIZATION AND SALE OF SECURITIES.

         1.1 AUTHORIZATION. On or prior to the Closing (as defined in Section 2
below), the Company shall have authorized (a) the sale and issuance to the
Purchasers of the Initial Preferred Stock; (b) the sale and issuance of the
Option Preferred Stock, (c) the sale and issuance of the Warrants; (d) the
issuance of up to 171,428 shares of Series A Preferred Stock as cumulative
dividends to the Purchasers (the "Dividend Stock"); (e) the issuance of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the "Warrant
Stock"); and (f) the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Initial Preferred Stock, the Option Preferred Stock, and the
Dividend Stock (collectively, the "Conversion Stock"). The Series A Preferred
Stock shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth
in the Certificate of Designation (the "Certificate") in the form attached to
this Agreement as Exhibit A. The Warrants shall be substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B.

         1.2 SALE AND ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES. Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the Company will issue and sell to each Purchaser severally,
and each Purchaser will purchase from the Company severally, the number of
shares of Initial Preferred Stock and the number of Warrants set forth opposite
such Purchaser's name on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto as Exhibit C
at the respective purchase price specified on the Schedule of Purchasers. Such
purchase price shall be paid to the Company by the Purchasers in the following
manner:

                  (a) At the Closing the outstanding principal amount, plus
accrued interest, under the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February
16, 2001, between the Company and SCP (the "SCP Loan and Security Agreement"),
and the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of January 19,

<PAGE>

2001, as amended as of February 16, 2001, between the Company and ICG (the "ICG
Loan and Security Agreement") shall be deemed paid by the Company and applied to
the purchase price. (The SCP Loan and Security Agreement and the ICG Loan and
Security Agreement are sometimes collectively referred to as "the Loan and
Security Agreements" and individually as a "Loan and Security Agreement.")

                  (b) The balance of the purchase price shall be paid in
installments, upon submission to the Purchasers, on or before the expiration of
four months after the Closing Date, of a written request therefore from the
Company (each, a "Request") which certifies the Company's then current
compliance with the Budget and Financial Management Plan previously prepared by
the Company and approved by the Purchasers (the "Plan") and the Company's need
for an installment of the purchase price in the amount projected for payment at
such time under the Plan. Each Request must be received by the Purchasers not
less than two business days prior to the desired date of payment and must be
accompanied by financial information from the Company confirming to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Purchasers the accuracy of the certifications
contained in the Request. All payments of purchase price pursuant to a Request
shall be made to the Company, by wire transfer to its primary operating account,
as provided by the Company to the Purchasers. Each installment of purchase price
paid by the Purchasers shall be comprised of payments made by the Purchasers in
proportion to their respective shares of the aggregate purchase price for the
Initial Preferred Stock (I.E., 60% by SCP and 40% by ICG, sometimes hereinafter
referred to as the "Ratio"); provided that in the event that the outstanding
amounts (principal plus accrued interest) owing with respect to the Loan and
Security Agreements on the Closing Date are not in proportion to the Ratio,
payments of each installment shall first be made by the Purchaser whose share of
outstanding principal and interest on the Closing Date was less than its share
of the Ratio until such time as the Ratio shall be restored.

facilities, machinery, equipment, fixtures, vehicles and other properties owned,
leased or used by the Company are in good operating condition and repair and are
reasonably fit and usable for the purposes for which they are being used. The
Company is in compliance with all material terms of each personal property lease
to which it is a party or is otherwise bound.

of all real property leases to which the Company is a party. Each lease set
forth in such Schedule is in full force and effect; in each case, the lessee has
been in peaceable possession since the commencement of the original term of such
lease; and there exists no event of default or event, occurrence, condition or
act (including the transactions anticipated hereby) which, with the giving of
notice, the lapse of time or the happening of any further event or condition,
would become a default under such lease. The properties leased by the Company
are in a state of good maintenance and repair and are being used. With respect

property has, to its knowledge, been, throughout the term of such use, in

governmental authority or insurance company relating to the use, operation or
maintenance of such real properties; (c) there has been no condemnation or
eminent domain proceedings commenced or to the Company's knowledge threatened;
and (d) no environmental audit report or other evaluations of such real
properties have been commissioned or prepared by the Company.

         3.14 COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS, NONE BURDENSOME, ETC. The
Company is not in violation of any term of its Certificate of Incorporation or
By-Laws, or, in any material respect, of any term or provision of any material
mortgage, indebtedness, indenture, contract, agreement, instrument, judgment or
decree, and to the best of its knowledge is not in violation of any order,
statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company where such violation would
materially and adversely affect the Company. The execution, delivery and
performance of and compliance with this Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreement
and the Investor Voting Agreement, and the issuance of the Initial Preferred
Stock, the Option Preferred Stock, the Warrant Stock, the Conversion Stock and
the Dividend Stock will not, with or without the passage of time or giving of
notice, result in any material violation of, or conflict with, or constitute a
material default under, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws or
any of its agreements or result in the creation of, any mortgage, pledge, lien,
encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or the
suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit,
license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business or
operations or any of its assets or properties.

         3.15 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW; PERMITS. To its knowledge, the Company is not
in violation of any applicable statute, rule, regulation, order or restriction
of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof
in respect of the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties
which violation would materially and adversely affect the business, assets,
liabilities, financial condition, operations or Plan of the Company. No
governmental orders, permissions, consents, approvals or authorizations are
required to be obtained and no registrations or declarations are required to be
filed in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Investor Rights Agreement or the Investor Voting Agreement, and the issuance of
the Initial Preferred Stock, the Option Preferred Stock, the Dividend Stock, the
Warrant Stock or the Conversion Stock, except such as has been duly and validly
obtained or filed, or with respect to any filings that must be made after the

reasonable efforts to prevent any such violation.

of any employment contract, proprietary information agreement or any other
agreement relating to the right of any such individual to be employed by, or to
contract with, the Company because of the nature of the business to be conducted

Agreement nor the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will constitute a
change of control of the Company that would result in (i) any grant, vesting or

grant, vesting or issuance; or (iii) any payment to such executive officer or
Key Employee, such certificate to be in the form attached as Exhibit L (the "Key

         3.19 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS.

                  3.19.1 Except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions: (i)
each Employee Benefit Plan (as defined below) has been administered in material

such plans; (iii) no Employee Benefit Plan has been the subject of a "reportable
event" (as defined in Section 4043 of ERISA) and there have been no "prohibited
transactions" (as described in Section 4975 of the Code or in Section 406 of
ERISA) with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan for which a statutory,
administrative or regulatory exemption is not available; (iv) there are and
during the past three years there have been no inquiries, proceedings, claims
(other than claims for benefits in the ordinary course) or suits pending or to
the knowledge of the Company threatened by any governmental agency or authority
or by any participant or beneficiary against any of the Employee Benefit Plans,
the assets of any of the trusts under such Employee Benefit Plans or the
Employee Benefit Plan sponsor or the Employee Benefit Plan administrator, or
against any fiduciary of any of such Employee Benefit Plans with respect to the
design or operation of the Employee Benefit Plans; (v) each Employee Benefit
Plan which is intended to be "qualified" within the meaning of Section 401(a) of
the Code is so qualified, and any trust created pursuant to any such Employee
Benefit Plan is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code
and the IRS has issued each such Plan a favorable determination letter which is
currently applicable; and (vi) the Company is not aware of any circumstance or
event which would jeopardize the tax-qualified status of any such Employee
Benefit Plan or the tax-exempt status of any related trust, or which would cause
the imposition of any liability, penalty or tax under ERISA or the Code with
respect to any Employee Benefit Plan. For the purposes of this Section 3.19,
"Employee Benefit Plan" means all employee benefit plans of the Company as
defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended ("ERISA").

                  3.19.2 The Company does not maintain and is not obligated to

employee's termination of employment (other than health continuation coverage as
required by Section 4980B of the Code or Part 6 of Title I of ERISA or any other
federal or state law, rule or regulation). For the purpose of this Section 3.19,

under common control with the Company within the meaning of Section 414(b), (c),
(m) or (o) of the Code.

                  3.19.4 The consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement will not (i) entitle any person to severance pay, unemployment
compensation or any other payment, (ii) accelerate the time of payment or
vesting, or increase the amount of compensation due to any such employee, or
(iii) result in any liability under Title IV of ERISA or otherwise.

         3.20 REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND VOTING RIGHTS. Except as set forth in the
Investor Rights Agreement (a) the Company is not under any contractual
obligation to register (as defined in Section 1.1 of the Investor Rights
Agreement) any of its presently outstanding securities or any of its securities
which may hereafter be issued; and (b) to the Company's knowledge, no
stockholder of the Company has entered into any agreement with respect to the
voting of equity securities of the Company.

         3.21 GOVERNMENTAL CONSENT, ETC. No consent, approval or authorization
of (or designation, declaration of filing with) any governmental authority on
the part of the Company is required in connection with the valid execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreement or the Investor Voting
Agreement, or the offer, sale or issuance of the Initial Preferred Stock, the
Option Preferred Stock, the Warrants, the Warrant Stock and the Conversion
Stock, or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereby, except
(a) filing of the Certificate in the office of the Secretary of State of the
State of Delaware (b) qualification (or taking such action as may be necessary
to secure an exemption from qualification, if available) of the offer and sale
of the Initial Preferred Stock, the Option Preferred Stock, the Warrant Stock
and the Conversion Stock under applicable state securities laws, which filings
and qualifications, if required, will be accomplished in a timely manner.

         3.22 OFFERING. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and
warranties of the Purchasers contained in Section 4.2 hereof, the offer, sale
and issuance of the Initial Preferred Stock, the Option Preferred Stock, the
Warrants, the Warrant Stock and the Conversion Stock will be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and will have been registered or qualified (or are exempt
from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit or
qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws. Neither the
Company nor any agent on its behalf (a) has solicited or will solicit any offers
to sell or has offered to sell or will offer to sell all or any part of the
Initial Preferred Stock or the Option Preferred Stock to any person or persons
or (b) will take any action hereafter, so as to bring the sale of such shares by
the Company within the registration provisions of the Securities Act or any
state securities laws.

         3.23 BROKERS OR FINDERS; OTHER OFFERS. The Company has not incurred,

contemplated hereby.

         3.24 TAX MATTERS. The Company: (a) has timely filed all tax returns
that are required to have been filed by it with all appropriate federal, state,
county and local governmental agencies (and all such returns fairly reflect the
Company's operations for tax purposes); (b) has timely paid all taxes owed by it
for which it is obligated to withhold from amounts owing to any employee
(including without limitation social security taxes), creditor or third party
(other than taxes the validity of which are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings); and (c) has not waived any statute of limitations with
respect to taxes or agreed to any extension of time with respect to a tax
assessment or deficiency. The assessment of any additional taxes for periods for
which returns have been filed is not expected to exceed the recorded liability
therefor, and, to the best of the Company's knowledge, there are no material
unresolved questions or claims concerning the Company's tax liability. The
Company's tax returns have not been reviewed or audited by any federal, state,
local or county taxing authority. There is no pending dispute with any taxing
authority relating to any of said returns which,

                                       11
<PAGE>

if determined adversely to the Company, would result in the assertion by any
taxing authority of any valid deficiency in any material amount for taxes.

         3.25 INSURANCE. The Company has fire, casualty and liability insurance
policies, in such amounts and with such coverage (i) as are required by
applicable federal, state and local law, (ii) as are required by all leases and
other contracts to which it is a party, and (iii) as are carried by similar
companies. The Company also maintains a directors and officers liability policy
as described on the Schedule of Exceptions.

         3.26 ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY REGULATIONS. The Company knows of no
violation or violations by the Company, its employees or agents of any
environmental or safety statute, law or regulation that in the aggregate would
have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, prospects or
financial condition of the Company, and, to the best of its knowledge, no
material expenditures are or will be required in order to comply with any such
existing statute, law or regulation. No action, proceeding, permit revocation,
writ, injunction or claim is pending or, to the best of the Company's knowledge,
threatened concerning the Company's facilities and the Company is not aware of
any fact or circumstance which could involve the Company in any environmental
litigation or impose any material environmental liability upon the Company. To
the best of the Company's knowledge, as of the Closing, no Hazardous Material
(as defined below) is present on any Company facility and no reasonable
likelihood exists that any Hazardous Material present on other property will
come to be present on a Company facility. There are no underground storage
tanks, asbestos or PCBs present on any Company facility. For the purposes of
this Section 3.26 the term "Hazardous Material" shall mean any material or
substance that is prohibited or regulated by any environmental law or that has
been designated by any governmental authority to be radioactive, toxic,
hazardous or otherwise a danger to health, reproduction or the environment.

         3.27 MINUTE BOOKS. The minute books of the Company provided to special
counsel for the Purchasers contain a complete summary of all meetings of
directors and stockholders and all actions by written consent without a meeting
since the time of incorporation and reflect all transactions referred to in such
minutes accurately in all material respects. Neither the stockholders nor the
Board of Directors of the Company have taken any action relating to the merger,
consolidation, sale of assets or business, liquidation, dissolution or any other
reorganization of the Company.

         3.28 DISCLOSURE. This Agreement, including the Exhibits hereto, does
not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not

         7.1 INFORMATION RIGHTS. The Company shall provide to the Purchasers the
information required by Section 2.1 of the Investor Rights Agreement and provide
the Purchasers with the inspection and access right set forth in Section 2.2 of
the Investor Rights Agreement.

         7.2 NON-SOLICITATION AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND INVENTIONS
AGREEMENTS. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, all future
employees of the Company who have access to confidential information shall be
required to execute and deliver a Non-Solicitation and Proprietary Information
Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit G attached hereto.

         7.3 TAXES AND OTHER LIABILITIES. The Company will pay and discharge,
before the same become delinquent and before penalties accrue thereon, all
taxes, assessments and governmental charges upon or against it or any of its
properties, and all its other material liabilities at any time existing, except
to the extent and so long as (a) the same are being contested in good faith and
by appropriate proceedings in such manner as not to cause any materially adverse
effect upon the financial condition of the Company or the loss of any right of
redemption from any sale thereunder and (b) the Company shall have set aside on
its books reserves (segregated to the extent required by generally accepted
accounting principles) deemed by it adequate with respect thereto.

         7.4 EMPLOYEE OPTION POOL. Following the Closing, the Company shall not
grant options to its employees in an amount which would result in total options
outstanding at any time exceeding 15% of the total number of shares, warrants
and options issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing, without the
approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock. All such option grants shall be approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company, or a committee thereof, and shall be exercisable at
prices that are no less than the fair market value, as determined by the Board
of Directors as of the date of each grant.

         7.5 USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale
of the Initial Preferred Stock and the Option Preferred Stock for working
capital and other general corporate purposes. Prior to the Closing, the Company
shall provide to the Purchasers a detailed breakdown of the

intended use of proceeds, including a list of the creditors which the Company
proposes to pay and the amounts which are proposed to be paid.

7.6      STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING AND NASD MATTERS.

         (a) As soon as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the
Company shall prepare and shall file with the SEC a proxy statement relating to
a special meeting of the Company's stockholders (the "Stockholders' Meeting") to
be held to consider the approval of the matters required by Section 5.9
(together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the "Proxy Statement").
The Proxy Statement shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Purchasers. Copies of the Proxy Statement shall be provided to the Nasdaq
National Market (the "NNM") in accordance with its rules. The Company shall
notify the Purchasers of the receipt of any comments from the SEC on the Proxy
Statement and of any requests by the SEC for any amendments or supplements
thereto or for additional information and shall provide to the Purchasers
promptly copies of all correspondence between the Company or any of its
representatives and advisors and the SEC. The Company shall cause the Proxy
Statement to comply as to form and substance in all material respects with the
applicable requirements of (a) the Exchange Act, and (b) the rules and
regulations of the NNM. The Company shall mail the Proxy Statement to its
stockholders as promptly as practicable after the SEC either informs the Company
that it will not review the Proxy Statement or all comments or requests for
information by the SEC with respect thereto have been resolved.

         (b) The Proxy Statement shall include the recommendation of the board
of directors of the Company to the Company's stockholders that they vote in
favor of approval of the matters required by Section 5.9.

         (c) The Proxy Statement shall, at the time filed with the SEC or other
regulatory agency and, in addition, at the date it or any amendments or
supplements thereto are mailed to stockholders of the Company, at the time of
the Stockholders' Meeting and at the Closing, not contain any untrue statement
or a material fact or omit or state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. If at any time prior to
the Closing any event or circumstance is discovered by the Company that should
be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Proxy Statement, the Company
shall promptly inform the Purchasers. All documents that the Company is
responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby will comply as to form in all material respects with the
applicable requirements of the rules and regulations of the Exchange Act.

         (d) The Company shall call and hold the Stockholders' Meeting as
promptly as practicable after the date hereof for the purpose of voting upon the
approval of the matters required by Section 5.9 pursuant to the Proxy Statement.
The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to solicit from its stockholders
proxies in favor of the approval of the matters required by Section 5.9 pursuant
to the Proxy Statement and shall take all other action necessary or advisable to
secure the vote or consent of stockholders required by the Delaware General
Corporation Law.

         (e) The Company shall take all actions necessary to comply with the
rules and regulations of the NNM in connection with the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

manner any filings required by applicable federal or state securities or Blue
Sky laws, or those of any other applicable jurisdiction.

         7.8 RESERVATION OF SHARES. For so long as the Purchasers shall have any
right to receive the Conversion Stock, the Company shall reserve and keep
available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock the full number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of all the then outstanding
Initial Preferred Stock and Option Preferred Stock, if any, and shall, at its
own expense, take all such actions and obtain such permits and orders as may be
necessary to enable the Company lawfully to issue such Conversion Stock upon
conversion of the Initial Preferred Stock and Option Preferred Stock, if any.

         7.9 BOOKS AND RECORDS. The Company shall maintain complete and accurate
records and books of account in which entries shall be made in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, reflecting all
transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any.

         7.10 COVENANT TO USE BEST EFFORTS TO SATISFY CONDITIONS. The Company
shall use its best efforts to satisfy all conditions set forth in Section 5
prior to Closing. To the extent that any such conditions shall not have been
complied with, but the Closing nevertheless proceeds as a result of a waiver by
the Purchasers, the Company shall continue to use its best efforts to satisfy
such conditions as soon as practicable following the Closing.

         7.11 ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK. The Company shall not issue any shares
of Common Stock except pursuant to options, warrants, convertible securities or
other commitments or agreements outstanding on the date of this Agreement and
disclosed in the Schedule of Exceptions, and shall not enter into any agreement
or commitment with respect to any such issuance without the prior written
consent of the Purchasers.

8.       INDEMNIFICATION

         8.1 SURVIVAL. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
made herein shall survive any investigation made by any or all of the Purchasers
and the Closing contemplated hereby for a period of two years following the
Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.5, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 and
3.24 of this Agreement shall survive any investigation made by the Purchasers
without any time limitation. All statements as to factual matters contained in
any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company
pursuant hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be
deemed to be representations and warranties by the Company hereunder solely as
of the date of such certificate or instrument.

         8.2 DAMAGES. The Company shall reimburse and indemnify and hold the
Purchasers harmless against and in respect of any and all damage, loss,
liability, settlement payments, costs, levies, expenses or obligations
(collectively, "Damages") actually suffered by the Purchasers in connection,

             (a) any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment of
any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company under this Agreement; or

                                       19
<PAGE>

             (b) any and all actions, suits, claims, allegations, proceedings,
investigations, audits, demands, assessments, fines, judgments, settlements,
levies, costs and other expenses (including without limitation reasonable audit
and legal fees) incident to any of the foregoing.

         8.3 INVESTIGATION. Any claim for indemnification shall not be invalid
as a result of any investigation by or opportunity to investigate afforded to
the Purchasers.

9.       MISCELLANEOUS

         9.1 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by
the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

         9.2 SURVIVAL. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
made herein shall survive any investigation made by the Purchasers and the
closing of the transactions contemplated hereby.

         9.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto,
provided, however, that the rights of the Purchasers to purchase the Initial
Preferred Stock or the Option Preferred Stock shall not be assignable without
the consent of the Company.

         9.4 ENTIRE AGREEMENT: AMENDMENT. This Agreement and the other documents
delivered pursuant hereto, including without limitation the Plan, constitute the
full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to
the subjects hereof and thereof, and no party shall be liable or bound to any
other party in any manner by any warranties, representations or covenants except
as specifically set forth herein or therein. Except as expressly provided
herein, neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived,
discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the party
against whom enforcement of any such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination
is sought; provided, however, that holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock purchased pursuant to this Agreement may,
with the Company's prior written consent, waive, modify or amend on behalf of
all holders, any provisions hereof.

         9.5 TERMINATION. If the Closing has not occurred on or prior to April
9, 2001, the Purchasers may terminate this Agreement effective immediately by
sending written notice thereof to the Company, whereupon no party hereto shall
have any liability to any other party hereto, except that the Company shall pay
to SCP a Break-Up Fee, as hereinafter defined and shall reimburse each Purchaser
for expenses incurred in connection with the transaction. The term "Break-Up
Fee" shall mean: (a) $20,000,000 if the Closing has not occurred because the
Company, in one transaction or series of related transactions, (i) has obtained
equity or debt financing from a source other than both of the Purchasers, (ii)
has sold substantially all of its assets, (iii) has merged or consolidated with
a third party, or (iv) has entered into an agreement with respect to any of the
foregoing; and (b) $5,000,000 if the Closing has not occurred for any other
reason.

         9.6 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PURCHASERS. Each Purchaser acknowledges that in
making its investment decision to purchase shares of Initial Preferred Stock
pursuant to this Agreement it has not relied on any information provided to it
by, or any investigation performed by, the other Purchaser. Rather it has relied
on the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein.

or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Purchaser,
upon any breach or default of the Company under this Agreement, shall impair any
such right, power or remedy of such holder nor shall it be construed to be a
waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in
any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any
single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default
theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of
any kind or character on the part of any holder of any breach or default under
this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any holder of any provisions or
conditions of this agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to
the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under
this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any holder, shall be
cumulative and not alternative.

him through the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock.

         9.10 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which may be executed by less than all of the Purchasers,
each of which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such
counterparts, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

         9.11 SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect
without said provision.

                      RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
                                    APPROVING
                            THE DESIGNATION STATEMENT
                      RELATING TO SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

         WHEREAS, the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of
the Corporation authorizes the Corporation to issue a total of 5,000,000 shares
of Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share ("Preferred Stock"), which may be
divided into one or more series as the Board of Directors may determine;

         WHEREAS, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation expressly
vests in the Board of Directors the authority to fix and determine the
designations, powers, preferences, and rights, and the qualifications,
limitations and restrictions thereof, of the Preferred Stock; and

         WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it advisable to designate a
series of the Preferred Stock consisting of Six Hundred Thousand (600,000)
shares designated as Series A Preferred Stock;

         NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, that pursuant to Paragraph
FOURTH of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, there be and
hereby is authorized and created a series of Preferred Stock hereby designated
as Series A Preferred Stock, to consist of 600,000 shares, having a par value of
$0.0001 per share, which series shall have the voting rights, designations,
powers, preferences, relative and other special rights, and the qualifications,
limitations and restrictions set forth below:

         SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK. Six Hundred Thousand (600,000) of the
authorized shares of Preferred Stock are hereby designated "Series A Preferred
Stock" (the "Series A Preferred Stock"). The rights, preferences, privileges,
restrictions and other matters relating to the Series A Preferred Stock are as
follows:

         (a) DIVIDEND RIGHTS.

             (i) Subject to the right of any other series of Preferred Stock
     that may from time to time come into existence and which is expressly
     senior to the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series
     A Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of Common Stock and any
     other stock of the Company hereafter created which shall be junior to the
     Series A Preferred Stock (together, "Series A Junior Stock"), shall be
     entitled to receive dividends, but only out of funds that are legally
     available therefor, at the rate of 8% of the Series A Original Issue Price
     (as defined below) per annum (the "Series A Dividend Rate") on each
     outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock (as adjusted for any stock
     dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with
     respect to such shares). Such dividends shall accrue, whether or not
     declared by the Board of Directors, but shall be payable only when, as and
     if declared by the Board of Directors. Such dividends shall be payable,
     when and if declared, at the option of the Company either

<PAGE>

     (A) in cash or (B) in additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock (valued
     at the Series A Original Issue Price (as defined below), as adjusted for
     any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like
     with respect to such shares). Such additional shares of Series A Preferred
     Stock issued in lieu of the cash dividend are sometimes referred to as "PIK
     Shares." The original issue price of the Series A Preferred Stock (the
     "Series A Original Issue Price") shall be $70.00. Such dividends shall be
     cumulative and shall accrue quarterly. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A)
     in the event of a Qualified Public Offering or a Qualified Sale on or
     before the third anniversary of the Series A Original Issue Date, all
     issued and outstanding PIK Shares shall be canceled, and (B) in the event
     that any shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to
     Section (d) of this Certificate of Designation on or prior to the
     expiration of three years from the Series A Original Issue Date, any
     accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such shares shall be
     cancelled.

             (ii) So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be
     outstanding, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority
     of the then issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, no
     dividend (other than a stock dividend paid pro rata to the Company's
     stockholders), whether in cash or property, shall be paid or declared, nor
     shall any other distribution (other than a stock dividend paid pro rata to
     the Company's stockholders) be made, on any Series A Junior Stock, nor
     shall any shares of any Series A Junior Stock of the Company be purchased,
     redeemed, or otherwise acquired for value by the Company (except for
     acquisitions of Common Stock by the Company pursuant to agreements that
     permit the Company to repurchase such shares upon termination of services
     to the Company or in exercise of the Company's right of first refusal upon
     a proposed transfer) until all dividends (set forth in Section (a)(i)
     above) on the Series A Preferred Stock shall have been paid or declared and
     set apart. In the event that the Company shall declare a dividend or
     distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of
     indebtedness issued by the Company or other persons, or options or rights
     to purchase any such securities or evidences of indebtedness or other
     assets (including cash) to the holders of the Common Stock, then the
     holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a
     proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution as though the
     holders of the Series A Preferred Stock were the holders of the number of
     shares of Common Stock into which their respective shares of Series A
     Preferred Stock are convertible as of the record date fixed for the
     determination of the holders of the Common Stock entitled to receive such
     dividend or distribution.

         (b) VOTING RIGHTS.

             (i) General Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein or as
     required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock shall be voted equally with
     the shares of the Common Stock of the Company and not as a separate class,
     at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company, upon the
     following basis: each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be
     entitled to such number of votes as shall be equal to the whole number of
     shares of Common Stock into which such holder's aggregate number of shares
     of Series A Preferred Stock, are convertible pursuant to Section (d) hereof

                                       2
<PAGE>

     immediately after the close of business on the record date fixed for such
     meeting or the effective date of such written consent.

             (ii) Separate Vote of Series A Preferred Stock. Subject to the
     rights of any series of Preferred Stock which may hereafter from time to
     time come into existence, for so long as at least 10% of the Series A
     Preferred Stock theretofore issued remain outstanding (subject to
     adjustment for any stock split, reverse stock split or other similar event
     affecting the Series A Preferred Stock), in addition to any other vote or
     consent required herein or by law, the vote of the holders of at least a
     majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock shall be necessary for
     effecting or validating the following actions:

                  (A) any amendment, alteration, or repeal of any provision of
          the Certificate of Incorporation (including this Certificate of
          Designation) or the Bylaws of the Company (including any filing of a
          Certificate of Designation), that alters or changes or adversely
          affects the voting or other powers, preferences, or other special
          rights or privileges, or restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock;

                  (B) reclassification or recapitalization of any outstanding

          Preferred Stock;

                  (C) authorization or issuance of any other stock having
          rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on a parity with the

                  (D) reorganization, merger or consolidation with or into any
          corporation if such reorganization, merger or consolidation would
          result in the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such
          reorganization, merger or consolidation holding less than a majority
          of the voting power of the stock of the surviving corporation
          immediately after such reorganization, merger or consolidation;

                  (E) sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of, or
          encumbrance of, all or substantially all the Company's assets in a

          to increase the number of shares of authorized Common Stock or
          Preferred Stock;

                  (H) redemption, purchase or other acquisition by the Company,
          either direct or indirect, of any of the Company's capital stock or
          other equity securities (including any securities directly or
          indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such
          securities) excluding redemptions, repurchases or other reacquisitions
          at cost with respect to shares issued in accordance with plans or

                                       3

          agreements approved by the Board of Directors from current or former
          employees, consultants, advisors or directors upon or in connection
          with their death, disability or termination of employment with the
          Company and excluding the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section
          (e) below;

                  (I) authorization, declaration or payment of any dividend
          (other than a stock dividend paid pro rata to the Company's
          stockholders) on any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, other
          than the Series A Preferred Stock; or

                  (J) increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of
          Series A Preferred Stock; or

                  (K) issuance, reservation or authorization of shares of Common
          Stock or any right or option to purchase Common Stock or other

          at any time exceeding 15% of the total number of shares, warrants and
          options issued and outstanding immediately after the Series A Original
          Issue Date (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or
          splits with respect to such shares).

         (c) LIQUIDATION RIGHTS.

            (i) Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the
          Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any distribution or
          payment shall be made to the holders of any Series A Junior Stock,
          subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock that may
          from time to time come into existence and which is expressly senior
          to the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of
          Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the
          assets of the Company an amount per share of Series A Preferred
          Stock equal to 100% of the Series A Original Issue Price (as
          adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits,
          recapitalizations and the like with respect to such shares) for
          each share of Series A Preferred Stock held by each such holder.
          If, upon any such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the
          assets of the Company shall be insufficient to make payment in full
          to all holders of Series A Preferred Stock, then such assets shall
          be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred Stock at the
          time outstanding, ratably in proportion to the full amounts to
          which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. After the
          payment of the foregoing full liquidation preference of the Series
          A Preferred Stock and any other distribution that may be required
          with respect to any series of Preferred Stock that may from time to
          time come into existence and which is expressly senior to the
          rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, the assets of the Company
          legally available for distribution, if any, shall be distributed
          ratably to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, on an as
          converted basis, and the holders of Series A Junior Stock.

            (ii) The following events shall be considered a liquidation under
          this Section, unless by vote or written consent of the holders of at
          least a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding,
          such holders waive the right to treat any of the following events
          as a deemed liquidation:

                                       4
<PAGE>

                  (A) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into
          any other corporation or other entity or person, or any other
          corporate reorganization, in which the stockholders of the Company
          immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or reorganization, own
          less than 50% of the Company's voting power immediately after such
          consolidation, merger or reorganization, or any transaction or series
          of related transactions to which the Company is a party in which in
          excess of 50% of the Company's voting power is transferred, excluding
          any consolidation or merger effected exclusively to change the
          domicile of the Company (an "Acquisition");

                  (B) a transaction or a series of related transactions, other
          than transactions involving a holder of Series A Preferred Stock, in
          which a majority of the voting power is transferred to a third party
          (or group of affiliated third parties) who were not previously
          stockholders of the Company; or

                  (C) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially
          all of the assets of the Company (an "Asset Transfer").

             (iii) In any of the events set forth in subparagraph (ii), if the
     consideration received by the Company is other than cash, its value will be
     deemed its fair market value as determined in good faith by the Board of
     Directors. Any securities shall be valued as follows:

                  (A) Securities not subject to restrictions on free
         marketability covered by subparagraph (B) below:

                      (1) If traded on a securities exchange or through the
              Nasdaq National Market (or a similar national quotation system),
              the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices
              of the securities on such quotation system over the 30 day period
              ending three days prior to the closing;

                      (2) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall
              be deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sale prices
              (whichever is applicable) over the 30 day period ending three days
              prior to the closing; and

                      (3) If there is no active public market, the value shall
              be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by
              the Board of Directors.

                  (B) The method of valuation of securities subject to
         restrictions on free marketability (other than restrictions arising
         solely by virtue of a stockholder's status as an affiliate or former
         affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market
         value determined as above in subparagraphs (iii)(A)(1),

                                       5
<PAGE>

         (2) or (3) to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof, as
         determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

             (iv) Written notice of any such liquidation, dissolution or winding
     up (or deemed liquidation, dissolution or winding up) of the Company within
     the meaning of this Section, which states the payment date, the place where
     said payments shall be made and the date on which conversion rights as set
     forth herein terminate as to such shares (which shall be not less than 10
     days after the date of such notice), shall be given by first class mail,
     postage prepaid, or by telecopy or facsimile, not less than 20 days prior
     to the payment date stated therein, to the then holders of record of Series
     A Preferred Stock, such notice to be addressed to each such holder at its
     address as shown on the records of the Company.

                  (d) CONVERSION RIGHTS. The holders of the Series A Preferred
         Stock shall have the following rights with respect to the conversion of
         the Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock:

             (i) Optional Conversion. Subject to and in compliance with the
     provisions of this Section (d), any shares of Series A Preferred Stock may,
     at the option of the holder, be converted at any time into fully-paid and
     nonassessable shares of Common Stock The number of shares of Common Stock
     to which a holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled upon
     conversion shall be the product obtained by multiplying the "Series A
     Preferred Conversion Rate" then in effect (determined as provided in
     subsection (ii)) by the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock being
     converted.

             (ii) Series A Preferred Conversion Rate. The conversion rate in
     effect at any time for conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock (the
     "Series A Preferred Conversion Rate") shall be the quotient obtained by
     dividing the Series A Original Issue Price by the "Series A Preferred
     Conversion Price," calculated as provided in subsection (iii) below.

             (iii) Series A Preferred Conversion Price. The conversion price for
     the Series A Preferred Stock shall initially be $0.70 (the "Series A
     Preferred Conversion Price"). Such initial Series A Preferred Conversion
     Price shall be adjusted from time to time in accordance with this Section
     (d). All references to the Series A Preferred Conversion Price herein shall
     mean the Series A Preferred Conversion Price as so adjusted.

             (iv) Mechanics of Conversion. Each holder of Series A Preferred
     Stock who desires to convert the same into shares of Common Stock pursuant
     to this Section (d) shall surrender the certificate or certificates
     therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company or any transfer agent
     for the Series A Preferred, and shall give written notice to the Company at
     such office that such holder elects to convert the same. Such notice shall
     state the number of shares of Series A Preferred being converted.
     Thereupon, the Company shall promptly issue and deliver at such office to
     such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of
     Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and shall promptly pay in
     cash (at the Common Stock's fair market value

                                       6
<PAGE>

     determined by the Board of Directors as of the date of conversion) the
     value of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable to any
     holder of Series A Preferred. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been
     made at the close of business on the date of such surrender of the
     certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred to be converted,
     and the person entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
     such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of
     such shares of Common Stock on such date.

             (v) Adjustment Upon Common Stock Event. Upon the happening of a
     Common Stock Event (as hereinafter defined) at any time or from time to
     time after the date that the first share of Series A Preferred is issued
     (the "Series A Original Issue Date"), the Series A Preferred Conversion
     Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such Common Stock Event,
     be adjusted by multiplying the Series A Preferred Conversion Price in
     effect immediately prior to such Common Stock Event by a fraction, (i) the
     numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issued and
     outstanding immediately prior to such Common Stock Event, and (ii) the
     denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issued
     and outstanding immediately after such Common Stock Event, and the product
     so obtained shall thereafter be the Series A Preferred Conversion Price.
     The Series A Preferred Conversion Price shall be readjusted in the same
     manner upon the happening of each subsequent Common Stock Event. As used in
     this Section (d), the term "Common Stock Event" shall mean (i) the issue by
     the Company of additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other
     distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (ii) a subdivision of the
     outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of
     Common Stock (by stock split, reclassification or otherwise), or (iii) a
     combination or consolidation, by reclassification or otherwise, of the
     outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of
     Common Stock.

             (vi) Adjustment for Other Dividends and Distributions. If at any
     time or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date the
     Company pays a dividend or makes another distribution to the holders of the
     Common Stock (or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of
     Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution)
     payable in securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries other than
     shares of Common Stock, then in each such event provision shall be made so
     that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion
     thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable
     upon conversion thereof, the amount of securities of the Company which they
     would have received had their Series A Preferred Stock been converted into
     Common Stock on the date of such event (or such record date, as applicable)
     and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event (or
     such record date, as applicable) to and including the conversion date,
     retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such
     period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period
     under this Section (d) with respect to the rights of the holders of the
     Series A Preferred Stock or with respect to such other securities by their
     terms.

                                       7
<PAGE>

             (vii) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution.
     If at any time or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date,
     the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred
     Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class
     or classes of stock, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or
     otherwise (other than an Acquisition or Asset Transfer as defined in
     Section (c) or a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend or
     a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for
     elsewhere in this Section (d)), in any such event each holder of Series A
     Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into
     the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable
     upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of
     the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of
     Series A Preferred Stock could have been converted immediately prior to
     such recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to further
     adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or
     property by the terms thereof.

             (viii) Adjustment for Reorganizations, Mergers or Consolidations.
     If at any time or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date,
     there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock or the merger or
     consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or another
     entity or person (other than an Acquisition or Asset Transfer as defined in
     Section (c) or a recapitalization, subdivision, combination,
     reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere
     in this Section (d)), as a part of such capital reorganization, provision
     shall be made so that the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall
     thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series A Preferred
     Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the
     Company to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
     deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such capital
     reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or
     securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment
     shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section (d) with
     respect to the rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock after the
     capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section (d)
     (including adjustment of the Series A Preferred Conversion Price then in
     effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A
     Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly
     equivalent as practicable.

             (ix) Sale of Shares Below Series A Preferred Conversion Price.

                  (A) If at any time or from time to time after the Series A
         Original Issue Date, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed by the
         express provisions of this subsection (ix) to have issued or sold
         Additional Shares of Common Stock (as defined in subsection (ix)(B)(1)
         below), other than (w) as a dividend or distribution on the Series A
         Preferred Stock, (x) in connection with a Common Stock Event as
         provided in subsection (v) above, (y) as a dividend or other
         distribution on any class of stock as provided in subsection (vi)
         above, and (z) a subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock
         as provided in subsection (vii) above, for an Effective Price (as
         defined in subsection (ix)(B)(4) below) less than the then effective
         Series A Preferred Conversion Price, then and in each such case the

                                       8
<PAGE>

         then existing Series A Preferred Conversion Price shall be reduced, as
         of the opening of business on the date of such issue or sale, to a
         price equal to the price per share paid for such Additional Shares of
         Common Stock (but not less than the par value of the Common Stock).

                  (B) Certain Definitions. For the purpose of making any
         adjustment required under this subsection (ix):

                      (1) "Additional Shares of Common Stock" shall mean all
              shares of Common Stock issued (or, pursuant to this Section,
              deemed to be issued) by the Company, whether or not subsequently
              reacquired or retired by the Company, other than: (A) shares of
              Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of options, warrants
              (other than outstanding warrants granted in favor of Invest Inc.),
              convertible securities or other rights outstanding as of the
              Series A Original Issue Date; and (B) shares of Common Stock
              issued or issuable by the Company or any subsidiary to employees,
              officers, directors or consultants pursuant to stock option plans
              that are permitted by Section 7.4 of the Series A Preferred Stock
              Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 16, 2001, among the
              Company, SCP Private Equity Partners II, L.P., and ICG Holdings,
              Inc., unless otherwise approved by the holders of not less than a
              majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock;

                      (2) The "Aggregate Consideration Received" by the Company
              for any issue or sale (or deemed issue or sale) of securities
              shall (i) (A) to the extent it consists of cash, be computed at
              the gross amount of cash received by the Company before deduction
              of any underwriting or similar commissions, compensation or
              concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection with such
              issue or sale and without deduction of any expenses payable by the
              Company; (B) to the extent it consists of property other than
              cash, be computed at the fair value of that property at the time
              of such issue as determined in good faith by the Board; and (C) if
              Additional Shares of Common Stock, Convertible Securities or
              Rights or Options are issued or sold together with other stock or
              securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration
              which covers both, be computed as the portion of the consideration
              so received that may be reasonably determined in good faith by the
              Board to be allocable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock,
              Convertible Securities or Rights or Options or (ii) if no
              consideration is received by the Company, be considered zero;

                      (3) "Convertible Securities" shall mean any evidence of
              indebtedness, stock or other securities directly or indirectly
              convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock;

                      (4) The "Effective Price" of Additional Shares of Common
              Stock shall mean the quotient determined by dividing the total
              number of

                                       9
<PAGE>

              Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold, or deemed to
              have been issued or sold by the Company by the provisions of
              clause (1), into the Aggregate Consideration Received, or deemed
              to have been received by the Company by the provisions of this
              clause (4), for such issue or sale of such Additional Shares of
              Common Stock; and

                      (5) "Rights or Options" shall mean warrants, options or
              other rights to purchase or otherwise acquire shares of Common
              Stock or Convertible Securities.

                  (C) Deemed Issuances. For the purpose of making any adjustment
         to the Series A Preferred Conversion Price required under this
         subsection (ix), if the Company issues or sells any Rights or Options
         or Convertible Securities (or shall fix a record date for the
         determination of holders of any class of securities then entitled to
         receive any such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities), then the
         Company shall be deemed (x) to have issued, at the time of the issuance
         of such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities, that number of
         Additional Shares of Common Stock that is equal to the maximum number
         of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Rights or
         Options or conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities upon
         their issuance (or, in the case such a record date shall have been
         fixed, as of the close of business on such record date) and (y) to have
         received, as the Aggregate Consideration Received for the deemed
         issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock, an amount equal to
         the total amount of the consideration, if any, received by the Company
         for the issuance of such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities,
         plus, in the case of such Rights or Options, the minimum total amount
         of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise in
         full of such Rights or Options (including, with respect to Rights or
         Options for Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of
         consideration payable to the Company (other than by cancellation of
         liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Rights or Options) upon
         the conversion or exchange of such underlying Convertible Securities),
         plus, in the case of Convertible Securities, the minimum total amount
         of consideration, if any, payable to the Company (other than by
         cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such
         Convertible Securities) upon the conversion or exchange thereof;
         PROVIDED THAT:

                      (1) if the minimum amounts of such consideration cannot be
              ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar
              protective clauses, then the Company shall be deemed to have
              received the minimum amounts of consideration without reference to
              such clauses;

                      (2) if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the
              Company upon the exercise of such Rights or Options or the
              conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is reduced
              or the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
              exercise of such Rights or Options or the conversion or exchange
              of such Convertible Securities is

                                       10
<PAGE>

              increased over time or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of
              specified events, other than by reason of antidilution or similar
              protective adjustments, then the Series A Preferred Conversion
              Price computed upon the original issue or deemed issue thereof (or
              upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto), and
              any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon any such
              decrease or increase becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect
              such decrease or increase, as the case may be (provided, however,
              that no such adjustment of the Series A Preferred Conversion Price
              shall affect Common Stock previously issued upon conversion of the
              Series A Preferred Stock); and

                      (3) if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the
              Company upon the exercise of such Rights or Options or the
              conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is
              subsequently increased or the maximum number of shares of Common
              Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Rights or Options or the
              conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is
              subsequently decreased, then the Series A Preferred Conversion
              Price computed upon the original issue or deemed issue thereof (or
              upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto), and
              any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon any such
              increase or decrease becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect
              such increase or decrease, as the case may be, (provided, however,
              that no such adjustment of the Series A Preferred Conversion Price
              shall affect Common Stock previously issued upon conversion of the
              Series A Preferred Stock, and further provided that no
              readjustment pursuant to this clause (3) shall have the effect of
              increasing the Series A Preferred Conversion Price to an amount
              which exceeds the lower of (A) the Series A Preferred Conversion
              Price on the original adjustment date, or (B) the Series A
              Preferred Conversion Price that would have resulted from any
              issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock between the original
              adjustment date and such readjustment date).

          No further adjustment of the Series A Preferred Conversion Price,
          adjusted upon the issuance of such Rights or Options or Convertible
          Securities, shall be made as a result of the actual issuance of shares
          of Common Stock on the exercise of any such Rights or Options or the
          conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities. If any such
          Rights or Options or the conversion rights represented by any such
          Convertible Securities shall expire without having been fully
          exercised, then the Series A Preferred Conversion Price as adjusted
          upon the issuance of such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities
          (or upon the occurrence of the record date with respect thereto), and
          any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall be readjusted to the
          Series A Preferred Conversion Price which would have been in effect
          had an adjustment been made on the basis that (x) the only Additional
          Shares of Common Stock so issued were the shares of Common Stock, if
          any, that were actually issued or sold on the exercise of such Rights
          or Options or rights of conversion or exchange of such Convertible
          Securities and (y) the

                                       11
<PAGE>

          consideration received with respect to Additional Shares of Common
          Stock was the consideration actually received by the Company upon such
          exercise of such Rights or Options, plus the consideration, if any,
          actually received by the Company for the granting of all such Rights
          or Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration received
          for issuing or selling all such Convertible Securities actually
          converted or exchanged, plus the consideration, if any, actually
          received by the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or
          obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) on the
          conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities provided,
          however, that no such adjustment of the Series A Preferred Conversion
          Price shall affect Common Stock previously issued upon conversion of
          the Series A Preferred Stock. In the case of any Rights or Options
          which expire by their terms not more than 30 days after the date of
          issue thereof, no adjustment of the Series A Preferred Conversion
          Price shall be made (except as to shares of Series A Preferred Stock
          converted in such period) until the expiration or exercise of all such
          Rights or Options, whereupon such adjustment shall be made in the same
          manner provided above. If any such record date shall have been fixed
          and such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities are not issued on
          the date fixed thereof, the adjustment previously made in the Series A
          Preferred Conversion Price which became effective on such record date
          shall be canceled as of the close of business on such record date, and
          shall instead be made on the actual date of issuance, if any.

             (x) Waiver. The Series A Preferred Conversion Price adjustment
     provisions of this Section 4 may be waived by the written consent of the
     holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock,
     voting together as a single class.

             (xi) Certificate of Adjustment. In each case of an adjustment or
     readjustment of the Series A Preferred Conversion Price for the number of
     shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the
     Series A Preferred Stock, if the Series A Preferred Stock is then
     convertible pursuant to this Section (d), the Company, at its expense,
     shall compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the
     provisions hereof and prepare a certificate showing such adjustment or
     readjustment, and shall mail such certificate, by first class mail, postage
     prepaid, to each registered holder of Series A Preferred Stock at the
     holder's address as shown in the Company's books. The certificate shall set
     forth such adjustment or readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon
     which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of
     (i) the consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company for
     any Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or sold or deemed to have been
     issued or sold, (ii) the Series A Preferred Conversion Price at the time in
     effect, (iii) the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock and (iv) the
     type and amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be
     received upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.

             (xii) Notices of Record Date. Upon (i) any taking by the Company of
     a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of
     determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or
     other distribution, or (ii) any Acquisition (as defined in Section (c)) or
     other capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or
     recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company, any merger or

                                       12
<PAGE>

     consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation, or any
     Asset Transfer (as defined in Section (c)), or any voluntary or involuntary
     dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, the Company shall
     mail to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock at least 10 days prior to
     the record date specified therein (or such shorter period approved by a
     majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock) a notice specifying
     (A) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of
     such dividend or distribution and a description of such dividend or
     distribution, (B) the date on which any such Acquisition, reorganization,
     reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, Asset Transfer,
     dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and
     (C) the date, if any, that is to be fixed as to when the holders of record
     of Common Stock (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their
     shares of Common Stock (or other securities) for securities or other
     property deliverable upon such Acquisition, reorganization,
     reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, Asset Transfer,
     dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

             (xiii) Automatic Conversion.

                  (A) Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically
         be converted into shares of Common Stock, based on the then-effective
         Series A Preferred Conversion Price, (A) at any time upon the written
         consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares
         of the Series A Preferred Stock, (B) upon the closing of a Qualified
         Public Offering, or (C) upon a Qualified Sale. The term "Qualified
         Public Offering" shall mean a firmly underwritten public offering
         pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
         Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale of Common Stock
         for the account of the Company in which (i) the per share price is at
         least four times the then effective Series A Preferred Conversion
         Price, and (ii) the gross cash proceeds to the Company (before
         underwriting discounts, commissions and fees) are at least $60,000,000.
         The term "Qualified Sale" shall mean an Acquisition or Asset Transfer
         (as defined in Section (c)) which provides for minimum consideration
         payable with respect to each share of Common Stock (on a fully diluted
         basis) of at least three times the then effective Series A Preferred
         Conversion Price in cash or Liquid Stock. The term "Liquid Stock" shall
         mean capital stock which is registered under Section 12(b) or Section
         12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the
         disposition of which would not be significantly restricted by low
         trading volume or otherwise; provided, that capital stock which is
         either (i) listed for trading on the NASDAQ National Market System with
         average daily trading volume over the past six months of at least
         100,000 shares, or (ii) listed for trading on the New York Stock
         Exchange, Inc. shall be deemed to be Liquid Stock. Upon such automatic
         conversion, any accrued and unpaid dividends shall be paid in
         accordance with the provisions of Section (a).

                  (B) Upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in
         subparagraph (A), the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock
         shall be converted automatically without any further action by the
         holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing
         such shares are surrendered to the

                                       13
<PAGE>

         Company or its transfer agent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company
         shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of
         Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless the certificates
         evidencing such shares of Series A Preferred Stock are either delivered
         to the Company or its transfer agent as provided below, or the holder
         notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such certificates have
         been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory
         to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in
         connection with such certificates. Upon the occurrence of such
         automatic conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of
         Series A Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificates representing
         such shares at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for the
         Series A Preferred Stock. Thereupon, there shall be issued and
         delivered to such holder promptly at such office and in its name as
         shown on such surrendered certificate or certificates, a certificate or
         certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the
         shares of Series A Preferred Stock surrendered were convertible on the
         date on which such automatic conversion occurred. If the conversion is
         in connection with an underwritten offering of securities pursuant to
         the Securities Act, the conversion may, at the option of any holder
         tendering shares of Series A Preferred Stock for conversion, be
         conditioned upon the closing with the underwriters of the sale of
         securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the holder
         entitled to receive the Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A
         Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such Series A
         Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of
         securities.

             (xiv) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall
     be issued upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. All shares of Common
     Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon conversion of more than
     one share of Series A Preferred Stock by a holder thereof shall be
     aggregated for purposes of determining whether the conversion would result
     in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after the aforementioned
     aggregation, the conversion would result in the issuance of any fractional
     share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional share, pay cash
     equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Common Stock's fair
     market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) on the date of
     conversion.

             (xv) Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company
     shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but
     unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the
     conversion of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of
     its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to
     effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred
     Stock. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of
     Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then
     outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company will take
     such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but
     unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be
     sufficient for such purpose.

                                       14
<PAGE>

             (xvi) Notices. Any notice required by the provisions of this
     Section (d) shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (i)
     upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent by
     confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours
     of the recipient; if not, then on the next business day, (iii) 5 days after
     having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
     postage prepaid, or (iv) 1 day after deposit with a nationally recognized
     overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with verification of
     receipt. All notices shall be addressed to each holder of record at the
     address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company.

             (xvii) Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all taxes (other than
     taxes based upon income) and other governmental charges that may be imposed
     with respect to the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon
     conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, excluding any tax or
     other charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue
     and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which
     the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted were registered.

             (xviii) No Impairment. The Company shall not avoid or seek to avoid
     the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or
     performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith
     assist in carrying out all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or
     appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of the
     Series A Preferred Stock against impairment.

             (xix) Satisfaction of Accrued Dividends. Except as otherwise
     expressly provided, upon the conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred
     Stock into Common Stock as provided herein, the holders thereof shall be
     entitled to receive a payment in satisfaction of all accrued but unpaid
     dividends, subject to limitations regarding the cancellation of PIK Shares
     contained in this Section.

         (e) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

             (i) Redemption at Option of Holders of Series A Preferred Stock. At
     any time on and after January 20, 2006, at the request of any holder of
     Series A Preferred Stock, such holder may require the Company to redeem
     all, but not less than all, of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held
     by such holder in accordance with the provisions contained in this Section
     (e). In no event shall the Company be required to redeem shares in excess
     of the amount permitted by law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such inability to
     redeem shall not have any impact or effect upon the per-share Series A
     Redemption Price (as hereinafter defined). All redemptions shall be made in
     the order in which notices of redemption are received (with any notice of
     redemption received within 25 days of delivery of notice by an Initial
     Redeeming Holder (as hereinafter defined) under subsection (iii) being
     treated as having been received simultaneously with that of the Initial
     Redeeming Holder), and, if less than all of the shares submitted for
     redemption in a particular 25-day period are capable of being redeemed,
     then such shares shall be redeemed

                                       15
<PAGE>

     on a pro rata basis, based on the number of shares that each stockholder
     submitted for redemption.

             (ii) Redemption Price of Series A Preferred Stock. The price at
     which the Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed (the "Series A
     Redemption Price") shall be equal to the Series A Original Issue Price (as
     adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations
     and the like with respect to such shares) for each share of Series A
     Preferred Stock plus accrued but unpaid dividends.

             (iii) Exercise of Option to Redeem Series A Preferred Stock. If a
     holder of Series A Preferred Stock desires to exercise such holder's option
     to redeem all, but not less than all, of such holder's shares of Series A
     Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section (e), such holder (the "Initial
     Redeeming Holder") must give written notice to the Company specifying the
     number of shares to be redeemed, and the Company shall promptly provide a
     copy of such notice to each other holder of Series A Preferred Stock. No
     later than 25 days after receipt by the Company of notice of the Initial
     Redeeming Holder, if any other holder of Series A Preferred Stock also
     wishes to redeem all of such holder's shares of Series A Preferred Stock at
     the same time as the redemption of the shares of the Initial Redeeming
     Holder, such additional holder shall provide a notice comparable to that of
     the Initial Redeeming Holder to the Company and the Company shall promptly
     provide a copy of such notice to each other holder of Series A Preferred
     Stock. Redemptions shall be made on a date 30 calendar days after the date
     on which the Company receives the notice of the Initial Redeeming Holder
     (or the first business day thereafter). Each such date of redemption shall
     be a "Series A Redemption Date." To receive the Series A Redemption Price,
     the holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock must present and surrender
     the certificate or certificates representing such shares (duly endorsed for
     transfer) to the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company
     no later than three business days prior to the Series A Redemption Date.
     The Company shall pay the Series A Redemption Price to, or to the order of,
     the person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates as the
     owner thereof. The Company shall pay the entire Series A Redemption Price
     on the Series A Redemption Date.

             (iv) Effect of Redemption. From and after the Series A Redemption
     Date, unless the Company shall default in providing for the payment of the
     Series A Redemption Price, all dividends on such shares requested to be
     redeemed pursuant to this Section (e) shall cease to accrue, and all rights
     of the holders of any such shares subject to redemption as stockholders of
     the Company with respect to such shares, except the right to receive the
     Series A Redemption Price, shall cease and terminate. Any shares of Series
     A Preferred Stock that are redeemed by the Company shall be retired and
     shall not be reissued.

             (v) Failure to Redeem. If the Company shall for any reason fail to
     redeem any shares of Series A Preferred Stock as required by this Section
     (e), and such failure shall continue for a period of 30 days, then
     notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Certificate of
     Designation, with respect to all shares of Series A Preferred Stock then
     outstanding: (i) the conversion rights set forth in Section (d) hereof

                                       16
<PAGE>

     shall continue beyond any date for redemption specified in said Section,
     and said rights may be exercised at any time; and (ii) the Company may not,
     other than in the ordinary course of business, incur any indebtedness for
     money borrowed or borrow or reborrow any amounts under any lines of credit
     or any other borrowing facility which it may then have outstanding without
     the prior written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the then
     outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, unless the proceeds of such
     incurrence of such indebtedness or borrowing or reborrowing are to be used
     to make all redemptions then required to be made; and (iii) dividends shall
     continue to accrue and be paid in accordance with and as defined in Section
     (a), and, to the extent not paid, shall be added to the Series A Redemption
     Price. Nothing herein shall limit the Company's obligations to redeem as
     set forth above, or limit the remedies available to the holders of Series A
     Preferred Stock in the event of a failure of the Company to honor such
     obligations.

         (f) WAIVER. Any rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock set
forth herein may be waived by the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of
a majority of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding.

         (g) LIMITATION ON REISSUANCE OF SHARES. No share of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock acquired by the Company by reason of redemption, purchase,
conversion or otherwise shall be reissued, and all such shares shall be
cancelled, retired and eliminated from the shares that the Company is authorized
to issue.

AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE

exercise of this Warrant, as adjusted from time to time.

SECTION 1.   EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

         (a) This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part on any business
day (the "Exercise Date") and on or before the Expiration Date by presentation
and surrender hereof to the Company at its principal office at the following
address: 2 Seaport Lane, Boston, MA 02110, or at the office of its stock
transfer or warrant agent, if any, (or at such other address as the Company may
hereafter notify the Holder in writing) with the Purchase Form annexed hereto
duly executed and accompanied by proper payment of the Exercise Price in lawful
money of the United States of America in the form of a check, subject to
collection, for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Purchase Form. If
this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon surrender
of this Warrant, execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the
Holder thereof to purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares purchasable
hereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant and such Purchase Form,
together with proper payment of the Exercise Price, at such office, the Holder
shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Warrant Shares,
notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be
closed or that the certificates representing such Warrant Shares shall not then
be actually delivered to the Holder. The Company shall pay any and all
documentary stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the
issue or delivery of the Warrant Shares.

         (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), the Holder may, at
its sole option, elect to exercise this Warrant in whole or in part by receiving
Warrant Shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant, or any
part hereof, upon surrender of the Warrant at the principal office of the
Company together with notice of such election in which event the Company shall
issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares calculated on the basis of the
following formula:

                           X =      Y(A-B)
                                    ------
                                        A

         Where:   X =   the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder

                  Y =   the number of Warrant Shares to be exercised under this
                        Warrant

                  A =   the current fair market value of one share of Common
                        Stock calculated (determined in the manner set forth in
                        Section 3) as of the last business day immediately
                        preceding the exercise of this Warrant

                  B =   the Exercise Price

         SECTION 2. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company shall reserve at all
times for issuance and delivery upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant all
shares of its Common Stock or other shares of Capital Stock of the Company from
time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. All such shares shall be
duly authorized and, when issued upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant
in accordance with the terms hereof, including payment of the applicable
Exercise Price in full, shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances
or restrictions ("Liens") on sale (other than (i) restrictions pursuant to
applicable federal and state securities laws, and (ii) any Liens created by any
action or inaction of the Holder of the Warrant Shares) and free and clear of
all preemptive rights. If the Common Stock is listed on any national securities
exchange or The NASDAQ National Market, the Company shall also list such shares
on such exchange subject to notice of issuance or maintain the listing of its
Common Stock on The NASDAQ

                                       2
<PAGE>

National Market, as the case may be.

         SECTION 3. FRACTIONAL INTEREST. The Company will not issue a fractional
share of Common Stock or scrip upon any exercise or conversion of this Warrant.
Instead, the Company will deliver its check for the current market value of the
fractional share. The current market value of a fraction of a share shall be
determined by multiplying the current market price of a full share by the
fraction of the share and rounding the result to the nearest cent.

         The current market value of a share of Common Stock for purposes of
this Section shall be determined as follows:

             (i) If the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange
     or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such exchange or listed for
     trading on The NASDAQ National Market, the current market value shall be
     the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange or Market
     on the last business day prior to the date of exercise or conversion of
     this Warrant or if no such sale is made on such day, the average closing
     bid and asked prices for such day on such exchange or Market; or

             (ii) If the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted
     trading privileges, the current market value shall be the mean of the last
     reported bid and asked prices reported by the National Quotation Bureau,
     Inc., on the last business day prior to the date of exercise or conversion;
     or

             (iii) If the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted
     trading privileges and bid and asked prices are not so reported, the
     current market value per share shall be an amount determined in such
     reasonable manner as may be prescribed in good faith by the Board of
     Directors of the Company.

     SECTION 4.   EXCHANGE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR LOSS OF WARRANT.

         (a)      Except as otherwise provided in SECTION 8, the Holder of this
Warrant shall be entitled, at its option, without expense and without obtaining
the consent of the Company, to assign its interest in this Warrant, or any of
the Warrant Shares, in whole or in part, upon presentation and surrender hereof
to the Company or its stock transfer agent, if any; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
transferee, prior to any such transfer, agrees in writing, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Company, to be bound by the terms of this Warrant and
provides the Company with an opinion of counsel in such form reasonably
acceptable to the Company, that such transfer would not be in violation of the
Act or any applicable state securities or blue sky laws.

         (b) Subject to the provisions of SECTION 8, upon surrender of this
Warrant to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent or warrant
agent, with the Assignment Form annexed hereto duly executed and funds
sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall, without charge, execute
and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees
named in such instrument of assignment and, if the Holder's entire interest is
not being assigned, in the name of the Holder, and this Warrant shall promptly
be canceled.

         (c) This Warrant may be divided by or combined with other Warrants
which carry the same rights upon presentation hereof at the principal office of
the Company or at the office of its stock transfer or warrant agent, if any,
together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in

                                       3
<PAGE>

which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Holder hereof. The term
"Warrant" as used herein includes any warrants into which this Warrant may be
divided or exchanged.

         (d) This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender thereof by the
Holder at the principal office of the Company, for new Warrants of like tenor
registered in the Holder's name and representing in the aggregate the right to
purchase the number of shares purchasable under the Warrant being exchanged,
each of such new Warrants to represent the right to subscribe for and purchase
such number of shares as shall be designated by the Holder at the time of such
surrender.

         SECTION 5. RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER. The Holder shall not, by virtue
hereof, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law
or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those set forth in this
Warrant.

         SECTION 6. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. The
number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and
the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:

         (a) RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION OR MERGER. In case of any
reclassification or change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise or
conversion of this Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value
to no par value, or from no par value to par value or as a result of a
subdivision or combination) or in case of any consolidation or merger of the
Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger with another
corporation in which the Company is a continuing corporation and which does not
result in any reclassification or change, other than a change in par value, or
from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a
result of a subdivision or combination of outstanding securities issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant), the Company, or such successor or purchasing
corporation, as the case may be, shall, without payment of any additional
consideration therefor, execute a new warrant providing that the Holder of the
Warrant shall have the right to exercise such new warrant (upon terms not less
favorable to the Holder than those then applicable to this Warrant) and to
receive upon such exercise, in lieu of each share of Common Stock theretofore
issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the kind and amount of
shares of stock, other securities, money or property receivable upon such
reclassification, change, consolidation or merger by the Holder of one share of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant had the
Warrants been exercised or converted immediately prior to such reclassification,
change, consolidation, or merger. Such new warrant shall provide for adjustments
which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this SECTION 6. The provisions of this SUBSECTION 6(a) shall
similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, or
mergers.

         (b) SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF SHARES. If the Company at any time
while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, shall subdivide or combine
its Capital Stock, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately reduced, in case
of subdivision of shares, as of the effective date of such subdivision, or, if
the Company shall take a record of holders of its Capital Stock for the purpose
of so subdividing, as of such record date, whichever is earlier, or shall be
proportionately increased, in the case of combination of shares, as of the
effective date of such combination, or, if the Company shall take a record of
holders of its Capital Stock for the purpose of so combining, as of such record
date, whichever is earlier.

         (c) CERTAIN DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. If the Company at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall:

                                       4
<PAGE>

             (i) STOCK DIVIDENDS. Pay a dividend in shares of, or make another
     distribution of shares of, its Capital Stock, then the Exercise Price shall
     be adjusted, as of the date the Company shall take a record of the holders
     of its Capital Stock for the purpose of receiving such dividend or other
     distribution (or if no such record is taken, as at the date of such payment
     or other distribution), to that price determined by multiplying that
     Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such payment or other
     distribution by a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the total
     number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
     dividend or distribution, and (b) the denominator of which shall be the
     total number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately after such
     dividend or distribution; or

             (ii) LIQUIDATING DIVIDENDS, ETC. Make a distribution of its assets
     to the holders of its Capital Stock as a dividend in liquidation or by way
     of return of capital or other than as a dividend payable out of earnings or
     surplus legally available for dividends under applicable law, the Holder
     shall, upon its exercise, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number
     of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, and without payment of any
     additional consideration therefor, a sum equal to the amount of such assets
     as would have been payable to it as owner of that number of shares of
     Common Stock receivable by exercise or conversion of the Warrant had it
     been the Holder of record of such Common Stock on the record date for such
     distribution, or if no such record is taken, as of the date of such
     distribution, and an appropriate provision therefor shall be made a part of
     any such distribution.

         (d) ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK. If the Company at
any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall issue any
Additional Shares of Capital Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing
SUBSECTIONS (6)(a) through (6)(c) above) at a price per share less, or for other
consideration lower, than the Exercise Price, or without consideration, then
upon such issuance the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to the price per share
paid for such Additional Shares of Common Stock (but not less than the par value
of the Common Stock). The provisions of this SUBSECTION 6(d) shall not apply
under any of the circumstances for which an adjustment is provided in
SUBSECTIONS 6(a), 6(b) or 6(c). No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be
made under this SUBSECTION 6(d) upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of
Capital Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants, options
or other subscription or purchase rights or pursuant to the exercise of any
conversion or exchange rights in any convertible securities if any such
adjustments shall previously have been made upon the issuance of any such
warrants, options or other rights or upon the issuance of any convertible
securities (or upon the issuance of any warrants, options or any rights
therefor) pursuant to SUBSECTIONS 6(e) or 6(f) hereof.

         (e) ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS, OPTIONS OR OTHER RIGHTS. In case the Company
shall issue any warrants, options or other rights to subscribe for or purchase
any Additional Shares of Capital Stock and the price per share for which
Additional Shares of Capital Stock may at any time thereafter be issuable
pursuant to such warrants, options or other rights shall be less than the
Exercise Price per share of Common Stock hereunder, then upon such issuance the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in SUBSECTION 6(d) hereof on the
basis that the aggregate consideration for the Additional Shares of Capital
Stock issuable pursuant to such warrants, options or other rights, shall be
deemed to be the consideration received by the Company for the issuance of such
warrants, options, or other rights plus the minimum consideration to be received
by the Company for the issuance of Additional Shares of Capital Stock pursuant
to such warrants, options, or other rights.

         (f) ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES. In case the Company shall issue
any securities (debt or equity) convertible into Additional Shares of Capital
Stock and the consideration per share for which Additional Shares of Capital
Stock may at any time thereafter be issuable pursuant to the

                                       5
<PAGE>

terms of such convertible securities shall be less than the Exercise Price, then
upon such issuance the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in
SUBSECTION 6(d) hereof on the basis that (i) the maximum number of Additional
Shares of Capital Stock necessary to effect the conversion or exchange of all
such convertible securities shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date
of issuance of such convertible securities, and (ii) the aggregate consideration
for such maximum number of Additional Shares of Capital Stock shall be deemed to
be the minimum consideration received by the Company for the issuance of such
Additional Shares of Capital Stock pursuant to the terms of such convertible
securities. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made under this
subsection upon the issuance of any convertible securities which are issued
pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other subscription or purchase
rights therefor, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the
issuance of such warrants or other rights pursuant to SUBSECTION 6(e) hereof.

         (g) ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES. Upon each adjustment in the
Exercise Price pursuant to any provisions of this SECTION 6, the number of
shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted, to the nearest
one hundredth of a whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying such
number of shares purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately prior to such
adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately
thereafter.

         (h) OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THIS SECTION. The
following provisions will be applicable to the making of adjustments in the
Exercise Price hereinabove provided in this SECTION 6:

             (i) COMPUTATION OF CONSIDERATION. To the extent that any Additional
     Shares of Capital Stock or any convertible securities (debt or equity) or
     any warrants, options or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any
     Additional Shares of Capital Stock or any convertible securities (debt or
     equity) shall be issued for a cash consideration, the consideration
     received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the amount of the
     cash received by the Company therefor, or, if such Additional Shares of
     Capital Stock or convertible securities (debt or equity) are offered by the
     Company for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such Additional
     Shares of Capital Stock or convertible securities (debt or equity) are sold
     to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription
     offering, or through underwriters or dealers for public offering without a
     subscription offering, the initial public offering price, in any such case
     excluding any amounts paid or incurred by the Company for and in the
     underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with the issue thereof. To the
     extent that such issuance shall be for a consideration other than cash,
     then, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the amount of such
     consideration shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration at
     the time of such issuance as determined in good faith by the Company's
     Board of Directors. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Capital
     Stock issuable pursuant to any warrants, options or other rights to
     subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the consideration received by
     the Company for issuing such warrants, options or other rights, plus the
     additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of such
     warrants, options or other rights. The consideration for any Additional
     Shares of Capital Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any convertible
     securities (debt or equity) shall be the consideration paid or payable to
     the Company in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such
     convertible securities, plus the additional consideration, if any, payable
     to the Company upon the exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in
     such convertible securities. In case of the issuance at any time of any
     Additional Shares of Capital Stock or convertible securities (debt or
     equity) in payment or satisfaction of any dividend upon any class of stock
     preferred as to dividends in a fixed amount, the Company shall be deemed to
     have received for such Additional Shares of Capital Stock or convertible
     securities a consideration equal to the amount of such dividend so paid or
     satisfied.

                                       6
<PAGE>

             (ii) READJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. Upon the expiration of the
     right to convert or exchange any convertible securities (debt or equity),
     or upon the expiration of any rights, options or warrants, the issuance of
     which convertible securities, rights, options or warrants effected an
     adjustment in the Exercise Price, if any such convertible securities shall
     not have been converted or exchanged, or if any such rights, options or
     warrants shall not have been exercised, the number of shares of Capital
     Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding by reason of the fact that they
     were issuable upon conversion or exchange of any such convertible
     securities or upon exercise of any such rights, options, or warrants shall
     no longer be computed as set forth above, and such Exercise Price shall
     forthwith be readjusted and thereafter be the price which it would have
     been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the Exercise Price made
     pursuant to the provisions of this SECTION 6 after the issuance of such
     convertible securities, rights, options or warrants) had the adjustment of
     the Exercise Price made upon the issuance or sale of such convertible
     securities or issuance of rights, options or warrants been made on the
     basis of the issuance only of the number of Additional Shares of Capital
     Stock actually issued upon conversion or exchange of such convertible
     securities, or upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, and
     thereupon only the number of Additional Shares of Capital Stock actually so
     issued shall be deemed to have been issued and only the consideration
     actually received by the Company (computed as in SUBSECTION (6)(h)(i)
     hereof) shall be deemed to have been received by the Company.

             (iii) TREASURY SHARES. The number of shares of Capital Stock at any
     time outstanding shall not include any shares thereof then directly or
     indirectly owned or held by or for the account of the Company.

             (iv) OTHER ACTION AFFECTING CAPITAL STOCK. In case after the date
     hereof the Company shall take any action affecting the Capital Stock, other
     than an action described in any of the foregoing SUBSECTIONS (6)(a) to
     (6)(f) hereof, inclusive, which in the opinion of the Company's Board of
     Directors would have a materially adverse effect upon the rights of the
     Holder to purchase the Warrant Shares, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
     in such manner and at such time as the Board of Directors may in good faith
     determine to be equitable in the circumstances.

         (i) NOTICE OF CERTAIN ACTIONS. In the event that:

             (i) the Company shall authorize the issuance to all holders of its
     Common Stock of rights, warrants, options or convertible securities to
     subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock or of any other
     subscription rights, warrants, options or convertible securities; or

             (ii) the Company shall authorize the distribution to all holders of
     its Common Stock of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (other than
     dividends paid in or distributions of the Company's Capital Stock for which
     the Exercise Price shall have been adjusted pursuant to SUBSECTION (6)(a)
     or cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated current
     or retained earnings as shown on the books of the Company and paid in the
     ordinary course of business); or

                                       7
<PAGE>

             (iii) the Company shall authorize any capital reorganization or
     reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision or
     combination of the outstanding Common Stock and other than a change in par
     value of the Common Stock) or of any consolidation or merger to which the
     Company is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the
     Company is required (other than a consolidation or merger in which the
     Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any
     reclassification or change of the Common Stock outstanding), or of the
     conveyance or transfer of the properties and assets of the Company as an
     entirety or substantially as an entirety; or

             (iv) the Company is the subject of a voluntary or involuntary
     dissolution, liquidation or winding-up procedure; or

             (v) the Company proposes to take any action (other than actions of
     the character described in SUBSECTIONS (6)(a), (6)(b), (6)(c), (6)(d) or
     (6)(e) that would require an adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to
     this SECTION 6; then the Company shall cause to be mailed by first-class
     mail to the Holder, at least ten (10) days prior to the applicable record
     or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date as
     of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to receive
     any such rights, warrants or distributions are to be determined, or (y) the
     date on which any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer,
     dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective, and
     the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record
     shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities
     or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reorganization,
     reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution,
     liquidation or winding-up.

         SECTION 7. OFFICERS' CERTIFICATE. Whenever the Exercise Price shall be
adjusted as required by the provisions of SECTION 6, the Company shall forthwith
file in the custody of its secretary or an assistant secretary at its principal
office an officers' certificate showing the adjusted Exercise Price determined
as herein provided, setting forth in reasonable detail the facts requiring such
adjustment and the manner of computing such adjustment. Each such officers'
certificate shall be signed by the chairman, president or chief financial
officer of the Company and by the secretary or any assistant secretary of the
Company. A copy of each such officers' certificate shall be promptly mailed, by
certified mail, to the Holder and the original shall be made available at all
reasonable times for inspection by any other holder of a Warrant executed and
delivered pursuant to SECTION 4 hereof.

         SECTION 8. TRANSFER TO COMPLY WITH THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933;
REGISTRATION RIGHTS; CO-SALE AGREEMENT. No sale, transfer, assignment,
hypothecation or other disposition of this Warrant or of the Warrant Shares
shall be made if such transfer, assignment or other disposition would result in
a violation of the Act, or any state securities laws. Upon exercise of this
Warrant, the Holder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a
form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that the shares of Common Stock so
purchased are being acquired solely for the Holder's own account, and not as a
nominee thereof, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or
resale, except as permitted by the Act, and shall provide such other information
to the Company as the Company may reasonably request. Any Warrant and any
Warrants issued upon exercise of, substitution for, or upon assignment or
transfer of this Warrant, as the case may be, and all shares of Common Stock
issued upon exercise hereof or conversion thereof shall bear legends (in
addition to any legend required by state securities laws) in substantially the
form set forth on the first page of this Warrant, unless and until such
securities have been transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Act or may be freely sold to the public pursuant to Rule 144 (or any
successor rule thereto) or otherwise.

Statement to be declared effective under the Act prior to 60 days following the

              (b) prepare and file with the SEC, within 30 days after receipt of

Statement to enable the resale by the Holder of any Registrable Securities which

elected by any Holder of the Registrable Securities and set forth in such Shelf
Registration Statement and shall use its best efforts to cause such Shelf
Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Act prior to 30 days
following the filing of such Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC;

of (i) the date as of which all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf
Registration Statement may be transferred pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Act (or
any similar provision then in force), or (ii) such date as of which all
Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement (in any such case, such period being called a "Shelf Registration
Period");

              (e) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
post-effective amendments to any Shelf Registration Statement as may be
necessary to keep any such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective
for the applicable Shelf Registration Period;

              (f) cause the prospectus related to any Shelf Registration
Statement to be supplemented by any required supplement, and as so supplemented
to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under
the Act;

              (g) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Act

<PAGE>

other documents as such Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder;

              (i) use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by each Shelf Registration Statement under such other securities or Blue
Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by a Holder;
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is
already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by
the Act;

              (j) in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into
and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering;

              (k) advise each Holder, promptly after it shall receive notice or
obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC delaying or
suspending the effectiveness of any Shelf Registration Statement or of the
initiation or threat of any proceeding for that purpose; and it will promptly
use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to
obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order should
be issued;

              (l) notify each Holder of the happening of any event as a result
of which a prospectus included in any Shelf Registration Statement, as then in
effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement
therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing and,
following such notification, promptly deliver to each Holder copies of all
amendments or supplements referred to in paragraphs (c), (e) and (f) of this
Section 1.2;

              (m) cause all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to

Securities registered pursuant to Article 1 hereunder and a CUSIP number for all
such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of
such registration; and

              (o) furnish, at the request of any Holder, on the date that any
Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection
with a registration pursuant to this Article 1, if such securities are being
sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through
underwriters, on the date that the Shelf Registration Statement with respect to
such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the
counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form
and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public
offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders and (ii) a
letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the
Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified
public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed
to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders.

                                       4
<PAGE>

         1.3. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. All expenses, including (without
limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers' and
accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, and fees and
disbursements for counsel for the Investors shall be borne by the Company, but
excluding underwriting discounts and selling commissions.

         1.4. INDEMNIFICATION.

              (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and
hold harmless each Holder, each of its partners, officers and directors, and any
underwriter (as defined in the Act) for a Holder and each person, if any, who
controls a Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act,
against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which
they may become subject under the Act, or the 1934 Act or other federal or state
law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements,
omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"): (i) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Shelf
Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus
contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein,
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any
violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Act, the 1934 Act or any
state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, or the
1934 Act or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to such Holder,
partner, officer, director, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defendant any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection
1.4(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent
of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the
Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability,
or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, partner,
officer, director, underwriter or controlling person.

              (b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has
signed a Shelf Registration Statement, each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Act, any underwriter, and any controlling
person of any such underwriter, each other Holder, each of its partners,
officers and directors and any controlling person of any such Holder, against
any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of
the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act, or the 1934 Act or
other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any
Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such
Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such Shelf
Registration Statement; and the Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant
to this subsection 1.4(b), in connection with investigating or defending any
such loss, claim, damage,

                                       5
<PAGE>

liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained
in this subsection 1.4(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected
without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld; provided, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection
1.4(b) exceed the gross proceeds from the offering related to such Shelf
Registration Statement received by the Holder.

              (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 1.4 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.4, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party
(together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without
conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel,
with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if
representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such
counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such
action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section
1.4 but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will
not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 1.4.

              (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.4 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.

              (e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this
Section 1.4 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
Securities relating to the Shelf Registration Statement covering such
securities, and otherwise.

         1.5. REPORTS UNDER THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. The Company

in any Shelf Registration Statement and will otherwise cooperate with the
Investor in conducting an investigation for the purpose of reducing or
eliminating such Investor's exposure to liability under the Act, including the
reasonable production of information at the Company's headquarters; provided,
that the Company shall not be required to disclose any confidential information
to or meet at its headquarters with any Investor until and unless the Investor
shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Company with the Company with respect thereto;
and

              (d) such other information relating to the financial condition,
business, prospects or corporate affairs of the Company as an Investor may from
time to time request, provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated
under this subsection (d) to provide information which it deems in good faith to
be a trade secret or similar confidential information until and unless the
Investor shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company with the Company with respect
thereto.

         2.2. INSPECTION. So long as any Shelf Registration Statement is
effective, the Company shall permit each Investor, at such Investor's expense,
to visit and inspect the Company's properties, to examine its books of account
and records and to discuss the Company's affairs, finances and accounts with its
officers, all at such reasonable times as may be requested by the Investor;

                                COVENANTS BY ICG.

         4.1. LOCKUP AGREEMENT. So long as SCP holds at least 10% of its
aggregate ownership of the Series A Preferred Stock, any Warrants, any shares of
Conversion Stock, or any Warrant Stock (based, in the case of the Series A
Preferred Stock, on the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A
Preferred Stock shall be convertible), ICG shall not sell or otherwise dispose
of any shares of Common Stock either owned by it on the date of this Agreement
or which it is entitled to purchase pursuant to outstanding securities it owns
on the date of this Agreement, which ICG represents to be a total of ___________
shares ("ICG Common Stock"). In addition, ICG agrees that it shall not sell any
securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement (or obtained by the exercise or
conversion of any securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement) (the "ICG
Agreement Holdings"); provided that if SCP sells Common Stock after the date of
this Agreement, ICG shall be permitted to sell, at the time of such sale, up to
a number of shares that represents the same percentage of the ICG Agreement
Holdings as the percentage SCP's sale represents of the securities it purchased
pursuant to this Agreement (or obtained by the exercise or conversion of any
securities purchased pursuant to this Agreement). For purposes of this Section
4.1, if SCP shall sell shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Warrants, it shall
be deemed to have sold that number of shares of Common Stock into which the
shares of Series A Preferred Stock were convertible or the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, calculated on the date the
shares of Series A Preferred Stock or the Warrants, as the case may be, were
sold.

express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties
hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies,
obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as
expressly provided in this Agreement.

         5.2. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed

                            BREAKAWAY SOLUTIONS, INC.

                            INVESTOR VOTING AGREEMENT

         THIS INVESTOR VOTING AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered
into as of February 16, 2001, by and among SCP PRIVATE EQUITY PARTNERS II, L.P.,
a Delaware limited partnership ("SCP") and ICG HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("ICG") (SCP and ICG are collectively referred to as the "Investors"
and each individually is referred to as an "Investor").

         WHEREAS, SCP proposes to enter into a Series A Preferred Stock Purchase
Agreement (the "Series A Agreement") with ICG and Breakaway Solutions, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), pursuant to which the Investors would
agree to purchase certain securities of the Company from the Company (the
"Financing");

         WHEREAS, the Company is required to obtain prior stockholder approval
of the Financing and certain related matters (all as set forth in Section 5.9 of
the Series A Agreement and hereinafter referred to as the "Series A Proposals")
as a condition to the Financing;

         WHEREAS, in order to induce SCP to enter into the Series A Agreement
and to provide certain bridge financing to the Company, ICG is willing to agree
to vote all shares of Common Stock of the Company held by it in favor of the
Series A Proposals; and

         WHEREAS, in connection with the consummation of the Financing, the
Investors have agreed to provide for the future voting of their shares of the
Company's capital stock as set forth below:

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as
follows:

1.       VOTING.

         1.1 INVESTOR SHARES. The Investors agree to hold all shares of voting
capital stock of the Company registered in their respective names or
beneficially owned by them as of the date hereof and any and all other
securities of the Company legally or beneficially acquired by each of the
Investors after the date hereof (collectively, the "Investor Shares") subject
to, and to vote the Investor Shares in accordance with, the provisions of this
Agreement.

         1.2 SERIES A PROPOSALS. ICG shall vote all Investor Shares held by it
in favor of the Series A Proposals.

<PAGE>

         1.3 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. On all matters relating to the election of
directors of the Company, the Investors shall vote all Investor Shares held by
them so as to elect members of the Board of Directors of the Company as follows:

         At each election of directors of the Company, the Investors shall vote
all of their respective Investor Shares so as to elect:

            (a) two (2) representatives designated by SCP (in separate
classes), so long as SCP holds at least fifty percent (50%) of the Series A
Preferred Stock originally issued to it pursuant to the Series A Agreement
(as adjusted for stock splits, dividends and the like); and

            (b) one (1) representative designated by SCP and ICG who shall be
mutually acceptable to SCP and ICG (in a class different from the classes
containing the two (2) directors selected by SCP pursuant to clause (a)), so
long as SCP and ICG collectively own at least fifty percent (50%) of the
Series A Preferred Stock originally issued to them pursuant to the Series A
Agreement (as adjusted for stock splits, dividends and the like).

         Any vote taken to remove any director elected pursuant to this Section
1.2, or to fill any vacancy created by the removal, resignation or death of a
director elected pursuant to this Section 1.2, shall also be subject to the
provisions of this Section 1.2.

2.       MISCELLANEOUS.

         2.1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

             (a) ICG represents and warrants that it now owns its Investor
Shares, free and clear of liens and encumbrances and has not executed or
delivered any proxy or entered into any other voting agreement or similar
arrangement with respect to the Company's capital stock other than one which has
expired or terminated prior to the date hereof; and

             (b) each of the parties represents and warrants that such party has
full power and capacity to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, which
has been duly executed and delivered by, and evidences the valid and binding
obligation of, such party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to
laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of
debtors.

         2.2 NO REVOCATION. The voting agreements contained herein are coupled
with an interest and may not be revoked during the term of this Agreement.

         2.3 FURTHER ACTION. If and when the Investor Shares are sold, the
parties or the personal representative of such party shall do all things and
execute and deliver all documents and make all transfers, and cause any
transferee to do all things and execute and deliver all documents, as may be
necessary to consummate such sale consistent with this Agreement.

         2.4 SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The parties hereto acknowledge that it is
extremely difficult and may be impossible to measure in money the damages which
will accrue to a party hereto

                                       2
<PAGE>

by reason of a failure of any other party to perform any of the obligations
under this Agreement, and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be
specifically enforceable. If any party hereto or his heirs, personal
representatives, or assigns institutes any action or proceeding to specifically
enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding
is brought hereby waives the claim of defense therein that such party or such
personal representative has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not
offer in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at
law exist.

         2.5 ADDITIONAL SHARES. In the event that subsequent to the date of this
Agreement any shares or securities are issued on, or in exchange for, any of the
Investor Shares by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, combination of
shares, reclassification or the like, such shares or securities shall be deemed
to be Investor Shares for purposes of this Agreement.

         2.6 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
of the parties with respect to the subject matter described herein, and
supersedes all other prior or contemporaneous agreements, whether oral or
written, between the parties with respect to this subject matter.

         2.7 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by
the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as such laws are applied to
agreements between Pennsylvania residents entered into and performed entirely in
Pennsylvania.

         2.8 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. This Agreement may be amended only by an
instrument in writing signed by the Investors. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
with respect to the rights of a party to designate a director, as provided in
Section 1.2 of this Agreement, such party's written consent to any amendment of
such rights shall be required. No waivers of any breach of this Agreement
extended by any party hereto to any other party shall be construed as a waiver
of any rights or remedies of any other party hereto or with respect to any
subsequent breach.

         2.9 SUBSEQUENT SALE OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK. In the event that
subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Company sells additional shares of
Series A Preferred Stock to a purchaser that is not a party to this Agreement,
such purchaser shall become a party to this Agreement and shall have all of the
rights and obligations of an "Investor" hereunder.

         2.10 SUCCESSORS IN INTEREST. The provisions of this Agreement shall be

                     EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR VOTING AGREEMENT

         THIS EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR VOTING AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made

Partners II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("SCP").

         WHEREAS, SCP and ICG Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("ICG")
propose to enter into a Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Series
A Agreement") with the Company, pursuant to which SCP and ICG (the "Investors")
would agree to purchase certain securities of the Company from the Company (the
"Financing");

         WHEREAS, the Company is required to obtain prior stockholder approval
of the Financing and certain related matters (all as set forth in Section 5.9 of
the Series A Agreement and hereinafter referred to as the "Series A Proposals")
as a condition to the Financing;

         WHEREAS, in order to induce SCP to enter into the Series A Agreement
and to provide certain bridge financing to the Company, the Holders are willing
to agree to vote all shares of Common Stock of the Company held by them in favor
of the Series A Proposals; and

         WHEREAS, in connection with the consummation of the Financing, the
Holders have agreed to provide for the future voting of their shares of the
Company's capital stock as set forth below;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and

all of their respective Holder Shares so as to elect:

             (a) two (2) representatives designated by SCP (in separate
classes), so long as SCP holds at least fifty percent (50%) of the Series A
Preferred Stock originally issued to it pursuant to the Series A Agreement (as
adjusted for stock splits, dividends and the like); and

             (b) one (1) representative designated by SCP and ICG, who shall be
mutually acceptable to SCP and ICG (in a class different from the classes
containing the two (2) directors selected by SCP pursuant to clause (a)), so
long as SCP and ICG collectively own at least fifty percent (50%) of the Series
A Preferred Stock originally issued to them pursuant to the Series A Agreement
(as adjusted for stock splits, dividends and the like).

         Any vote taken to remove any director elected pursuant to this Section

Company's capital stock other than one which has expired or terminated prior to
the date hereof; and

             (b) such Holder has full power and capacity to execute, deliver and
perform this Agreement, which has been duly executed and delivered by, and

shares, reclassification or the like, such shares or securities shall be deemed
to be Holder Shares for purposes of this Agreement.

         2.4 SUCCESSORS IN INTEREST. The provisions of this Agreement shall not

interest is not in violation of the restrictions on share transfers contained in

                            BREAKAWAY SOLUTIONS, INC.

                    NON-SOLICITATION, PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
                            AND INVENTIONS AGREEMENT

         In consideration of my employment or continued employment by BREAKAWAY
SOLUTIONS, INC. (the "COMPANY"), and the compensation now and hereafter paid to
me, I hereby agree as follows:

1.       NONDISCLOSURE.

         1.1 RECOGNITION OF THE COMPANY'S RIGHTS; NONDISCLOSURE. At all times
during my employment and thereafter, I will hold in strictest confidence and
will not disclose, use, lecture upon or publish any of the Company's Proprietary
Information (defined below), except as such disclosure, use or publication may
be required in connection with my work for the Company, or unless an officer of
the Company expressly authorizes such in writing. I will obtain the Company's
written approval before publishing or submitting for publication any material
(written, verbal, or otherwise) that relates to my work at the Company and/or
incorporates any Proprietary Information. I hereby assign to the Company any
rights I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognize that
all Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Company and its
assigns. I have been informed and acknowledge that the unauthorized taking of
the Company's trade secrets may subject me to civil and/or criminal penalties.

         1.2 PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. The term "PROPRIETARY INFORMATION" shall
mean any and all confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information
of the Company. By way of illustration but not limitation, "PROPRIETARY
INFORMATION" includes (a) trade secrets, inventions, mask works, ideas,
processes, formulas, source and object codes, data, programs, other works of
authorship, methods, know-how, concepts, improvements, discoveries,
developments, designs and techniques (hereinafter collectively referred to as
"INVENTIONS"); and (b) information regarding plans for research, development,
new products, marketing and selling, business plans, budgets and unpublished
financial statements, licenses, prices and costs, suppliers and customers; and
(c) information regarding the skills and compensation of other employees of the
Company Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that, at all such times,
I am free to use information which is generally known in the trade or industry,
which is not gained as result of a breach of this Agreement, and my own, skill,
knowledge, know-how and experience to whatever extent and in whichever way I
wish.

         1.3 THIRD PARTY INFORMATION. I understand, in addition, that the
Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties
confidential or proprietary information ("THIRD PARTY INFORMATION") subject to a
duty on the Company's part to maintain the confidentiality of such information
and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the term of my
employment and thereafter, I will hold Third Party Information in the strictest
confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than Company personnel who
need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company) or
use, except in connection with my work for the Company, Third Party Information
unless expressly authorized by an officer of the Company in writing.

         1.4 NO IMPROPER USE OF INFORMATION OF PRIOR EMPLOYERS AND OTHERS.
During my employment by the Company I will not improperly use or disclose any
confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employer or any
other person to whom I have an obligation of confidentiality, and I will not
bring onto the premises of the Company any unpublished documents or any property
belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom I have an
obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by that former
employer or person. I will use in the performance of my duties only information
which is generally known and used by persons with training and experience
comparable to my own, which is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise
legally in the public domain, or which is otherwise provided or developed by the
Company.

2.       ASSIGNMENT OF INVENTIONS.

         2.1 PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. The term "PROPRIETARY RIGHTS" shall mean all
trade secret, patent, copyright, mask work and other intellectual property
rights or "moral rights" throughout the world. "Moral rights" refers to any
rights to claim authorship of an Invention or to object to or prevent the
modification of any Invention, or to withdraw from circulation or control the
publication or distribution of any Invention, and any similar right, existing
under judicial or statutory law of any country in the world, or under any
treaty, regardless of whether or not such right is denominated or generally
referred to as a "moral right."

<PAGE>

         2.2 PRIOR INVENTIONS. Inventions, if any, patented or unpatented, which
I made prior to the commencement of my employment with the Company are excluded
from the scope of this Agreement. To preclude any possible uncertainty, I have
set forth on EXHIBIT A (Previous Inventions) attached hereto a complete list of
all Inventions that I have, alone or jointly with others, conceived, developed
or reduced to practice or caused to be conceived, developed or reduced to
practice prior to the commencement of my employment with the Company, that I
consider to be my property or the property of third parties and that I wish to
have excluded from the scope of this Agreement (collectively referred to as
"PRIOR INVENTIONS"). If disclosure of any such Prior Invention would cause me to
violate any prior confidentiality agreement, I understand that I am not to list
such Prior Inventions in EXHIBIT A but am only to disclose a cursory name for
each such invention, a listing of the party(ies) to whom it belongs and the fact
that full disclosure as to such inventions has not been made for that reason. A
space is provided on EXHIBIT A for such purpose. If no such disclosure is
attached, I represent that there are no Prior Inventions. If, in the course of
my employment with the Company, I incorporate a Prior Invention into a Company
product, process or machine, the Company is hereby granted and shall have a
nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license (with
rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicensees) to make, have made,
modify, use and sell such Prior Invention. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I
agree that I will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, Prior
Inventions in any Company Inventions without the Company's prior written
consent.

         2.3 ASSIGNMENT OF INVENTIONS. Subject to Sections 2.4, and 2.6, I
hereby assign and agree to assign in the future (when any such Inventions or
Proprietary Rights are first reduced to practice or first fixed in a tangible
medium, as applicable) to the Company all my right, title and interest
throughout the world in and to any and all Inventions (and all Proprietary
Rights with respect thereto) whether or not patentable or registrable under
copyright or similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced to practice or
learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my
employment with the Company. Inventions assigned to the Company, or to a third
party as directed by the Company pursuant to this Section 2, are hereinafter
referred to as "COMPANY INVENTIONS."

         2.4 UNASSIGNED INVENTIONS. I recognize that this Agreement will not be
deemed to require assignment of any invention that was developed entirely on my
own time without using the Company's equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade
secrets and neither related to the Company's actual or anticipated business,
research or development, nor resulted from work performed by me for the Company.

         2.5 OBLIGATION TO KEEP THE COMPANY INFORMED. During the period of my
employment and for six (6) months after termination of my employment with the
Company, I will promptly disclose to the Company fully and in writing all
Inventions authored, conceived or reduced to practice by me, either alone or
jointly with others. In addition, I will promptly disclose to the Company all
patent applications filed by me or on my behalf within a year after termination
of employment. The Company will keep in confidence and will not use for any
purpose or disclose to third parties without my consent any confidential
information disclosed in writing to the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

         2.6 GOVERNMENT OR THIRD PARTY. I also agree to assign all my right,
title and interest in and to any particular Company Invention to a third party,
including without limitation the United States, as directed by the Company.

         2.7 WORKS FOR HIRE. I acknowledge that all original works of authorship
which are made by me (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of my
employment and which are protectable by copyright are "works made for hire,"
pursuant to United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101).

         2.8 ENFORCEMENT OF PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. I will assist the Company in
every proper way to obtain, and from time to time enforce, United States and
foreign Proprietary Rights relating to Company Inventions in any and all
countries. To that end I will execute, verify and deliver such documents and
perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Company may
reasonably request for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing,
sustaining and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In
addition, I will execute, verify and deliver assignments of such Proprietary
Rights to the Company or its designee. My obligation to assist the Company with
respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Company Inventions in any and all
countries shall continue beyond the termination of my employment, but the
Company shall compensate me at a reasonable rate after my termination for the
time actually spent by me at the Company's request on such assistance.

In the event the Company is unable for any reason, after reasonable effort, to
secure my signature on any document needed in connection with the actions
specified in the preceding paragraph, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint
the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as my agent and attorney
in fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to act for and in my
behalf to execute, verify and file any such documents and to do all other
lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the preceding paragraph with
the same legal force and effect as if executed by me. I hereby waive and
quitclaim to the

<PAGE>

Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which I now or may
hereafter have for infringement of any Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to
the Company.

3.       RECORDS. I agree to keep and maintain adequate and current records (in
the form of notes, sketches, drawings and in any other form that may be required
by the Company) of all Proprietary Information developed by me and all
Inventions made by me during the period of my employment at the Company, which
records shall be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all
times.

4.       DUTY OF LOYALTY DURING EMPLOYMENT. I understand that my employment
with the Company requires my full attention and effort. I agree that during the
period of my employment by the Company I will not, without the Company's express
written consent, engage in any employment or business activity other than for
the Company, including but not limited to employment or business activity which
is competitive with, or would otherwise conflict with, my employment by the
Company.

5.       NO SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES OR CLIENTS. As long as I am employed by
the Company and for a period of one year after the termination of my employment
for any reason, I shall not solicit, induce to resign, attempt to hire, or hire
any employee of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) (or anyone who was an
employee of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) during the period beginning
six months prior to my termination of employment with the Company), or assist in
such hiring by any other person or business entity or encourage any such
employee to terminate his or her employment with the Company (or any of its
subsidiaries).

As long as I am employed by the Company, and for a period of one year after the
termination of my employment for any reason, I shall not either directly or
indirectly (i) solicit, divert or attempt to divert from the Company (or any of
its subsidiaries) to myself or to any other person or business entity the
business or patronage of any of the clients or customers of the Company
(hereinafter referred to as "CLIENTS"), prospective Clients or business partners
of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) that were served or solicited by me
while I was employed by the Company; or (ii) provide services, whether on my own
behalf or as an owner, manager, consultant, partner, joint venturer,
stockholder, employee, broker, agent, principle, trustee, business alliance
partner, corporate officer, director, or licensor of any other person or
business entity, to any of the Clients, prospective Clients or business partners
of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) that were served or solicited by me
while I was employed by the Company. I agree to inform the Company of any
activities that violate or may violate the terms of this Section. In the event
that I breach any of the terms of this Section, the prohibitions set forth in
this Section will remain in effect for one year from the discovery of such
breach by an officer of the Company.

6.       GENERAL PROVISIONS.

         6.1 GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO PERSONAL JURISDICTION. This Agreement
will be governed by and construed according to the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be
performed entirely within Massachusetts between Massachusetts residents. I
hereby expressly consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal
courts for Massachusetts in any lawsuit filed there against me by the Company
arising from or related to this Agreement.

         6.2 SEVERABILITY. In case any one or more of the provisions,
subsections, or sentences contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this
Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Moreover, if any one or
more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held
to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject,
it shall be construed by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to
the extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear.

         6.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement will be binding upon my
heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives and will be for
the benefit of the Company, its successors, and its assigns.

         6.4 SURVIVAL. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or of my employment (regardless of the manner of
or the reasons for the termination of my employment, and regardless of whether
such termination constitutes a breach of any other agreement I may have with the
Company) and the assignment of this Agreement by the Company to any successor in
interest or other assignee.

         6.5 RELIEF. I acknowledge that money damages alone will not adequately
compensate the Company for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement,
and I agree the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition to
all other remedies available to the Company.

         6.6 OBLIGATION TO COOPERATE. I will, at any time during my employment,
or after it terminates, on request of the Company, execute all documents and
perform all lawful acts which the Company considers

<PAGE>

necessary or advisable to secure its rights hereunder and to carry out the
intent of this Agreement.

         6.7 RETURN OF PROPERTY. At any time on request of the Company, I shall
return promptly all documents and other property belonging to the Company or its
Clients or business partners.

         6.8 EMPLOYMENT AT-WILL. I agree and understand that I am employed
at-will, and that nothing in this Agreement shall change this at-will status or
confer any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Company, nor
shall it interfere in any way with my right or the Company's right to terminate
my employment at any time, with or without cause.

         6.9 WAIVER. No waiver by the Company of any breach of this Agreement
shall be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach. No waiver by the
Company of any right under this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any
other right. The Company shall not be required to give notice to enforce strict
adherence to all terms of this Agreement.

         6.10 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. The obligations pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 of
this Agreement shall apply to any time during which I was previously employed,
or am in the future employed, by the Company as a consultant if no other
agreement governs nondisclosure and assignment of inventions during such period.
This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior
discussions between us. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor
any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in
writing and signed by the party to be charged. Any subsequent change or changes
in my duties, salary or compensation will not affect the validity or scope of
this Agreement.

         This Agreement shall be effective as of the first day of my employment
with the Company, namely:
--------, -----.

         I HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS. I HAVE
COMPLETELY FILLED OUT EXHIBIT A TO THIS AGREEMENT.

------------------------------------------------------------
                        (NAME PRINTED)

         1. NON-COMPETITION. As long as I am employed by the Company and for a
period of one year after the termination of my employment for any reason, I will
not compete with the Company directly or indirectly, as owner, manager,

or have any connection with, any business engaged in providing Internet
professional services and application hosting or any other material business
being conducted by the Company in any geographic area where, at the time of the

a material respect; provided, however, that I may own any securities of any
corporation which is engaged in any such business and is publicly owned and

the extent that the provisions of this Agreement are in conflict with provisions
of any other agreement I may have regarding my employment with the Company, the
provisions of this Agreement shall supercede such other provisions. Failure by
the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this
Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver thereof. My obligations under this
Agreement shall survive the termination of my employment with the Company

to injunctive relief in addition to all other remedies available to the Company.
In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be
unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, it shall be interpreted to
extend only over the maximum period of time, geographic area or range of

issuance of the Company's securities; or (ii) any acceleration of any such

cases, pursuant to any agreement between the undersigned and the Company that is

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, intending to be legally bound, has executed

                                LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

         In connection with the proposed issuance and sale of securities of
Breakaway Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") to SCP Private
Equity Partners II, L.P. ("SCP") and ICG Holdings, Inc. pursuant to the Series A
Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Series A Agreement") of even date
herewith, and in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
undersigned, intending to be legally bound, hereby agrees as follows:

         1. The undersigned shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior
written consent of SCP, sell, offer, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option
to purchase or otherwise dispose of (collectively, a "Disposition") any shares

exchangeable for, or any rights to purchase or acquire, Common Stock (i) now
held by the undersigned, (ii) acquired by the undersigned after the date hereof,

pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Lock-Up Shares"), for a period commencing the date hereof
and ending on February 28, 2003 (the "Lock-Up Period"). The foregoing
restriction precludes the holder of the Lock-Up Shares from engaging in any
hedging or other transaction which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead
to or result in a Disposition of the Lock-Up Shares during the Lock-Up Period,
even if such Lock-Up Shares would be disposed of by someone other than such
holder. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without
limitation, any short sale (whether or not against the box) or any purchase,
sale or grant of any right (including without limitation, any put or call
option) with respect to any of the Lock-Up Shares or with respect to any
security (other than broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates
to or derives any significant part of its value from the Lock-Up Shares.

         2. Notwithstanding paragraph 1 herein, the undersigned may transfer (i)
up to 5% of the Lock-Up Shares in each year of the Lock-Up Period, provided that
no more than 1 1/4% of the Lock-Up Shares may be sold in any 90 day period; or
(ii) any or all of the Lock-Up Shares as a bona fide gift or gifts; provided
however, that for any transfer pursuant to this clause (ii), it shall be a
condition to such transfer that the transferee execute an agreement stating that
the transferee is receiving and holding the Lock-Up Shares subject to the
provisions of this Lock-Up Agreement. The transferor shall notify SCP in writing
prior to the transfer and there shall be no further transfer of the Lock-Up
Shares except in accordance with this Lock-Up Agreement.

         3. The Company's transfer agent may enter stop transfer instructions
against the transfer of any of the Lock-Up Shares during the Lock-Up Period.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Lock-Up Agreement
this ___ day of February 2001.

                      referred to hereinafter collectively as the "Investment
                      Agreements")

Dear Mr. _______:

                Internet Capital Group, Inc. ("ICG") is a party to a certain
credit agreement dated as of April 30, 1999, as amended or supplemented to date
(the "Credit Agreement"), among ICG and its subsidiary, Internet Capital Group
Operations, Inc., as borrowers under the Credit Agreement, PNC Bank, National
Association as Agent for the Banks ("Agent") and the banks named therein (the
"Banks"). As used herein, the term "ICG" shall refer to Internet Capital Group,
Inc. and/or one or more of its affiliates, including ICG Holdings, Inc., as
appropriate.

                In connection with the Credit Agreement, ICG is required to (i)
make a pledge of the securities ICG owns or may hereafter acquire (the
"Securities") in Breakaway Securities, Inc. (the "Company"), and (ii)
collaterally assign ICG's rights under the Investment Agreements, each to the
Agent, for the benefit of the Banks.

                Please evidence the Company's (1) consent to ICG's pledge of the
Securities; (2) waiver of any requirements in the Investment Agreements that ICG
obtain and/or deliver any of the following: (A) an opinion of counsel with
respect to such pledge, (B) the consent of the Company prior to the pledge of
the Securities to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks, and (C) a notice to
the Company relating to the pledge of the Securities; and (3) consent to the

assignment to the Agent for the benefit of the Banks of any rights relating to
registration, first refusal, co-sale, tag-along, drag-along or similar rights
that may have been granted to ICG under the Investment Agreements (the foregoing
matters referred to in clauses 1, 2 and 3 are hereinafter referred to
collectively as the "Company Consent"). In the event that ICG seeks to pledge
the Securities to any other lender under materially different pledge terms, the
consent of the Board of Directors of the Company shall be required.

                Please be advised that the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, has
acknowledged to and agreed with ICG, in the event that the Agent and/or the
Banks foreclose upon or dispose of the Securities pledged as collateral under
the Credit Agreement, to be subject to and bound by the restrictions and
limitations on transfer of such pledged Securities as are set forth in the
Investment Agreements to the same extent that ICG is so bound; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that in no event shall the Agent or Banks be obligated under the
Investment Agreements or otherwise to provide any additional financing for or
make any additional investments thereunder.

         Please be advised that in connection with ICG's ownership of the
Securities, ICG will require the Company to deliver the following:

               (1) For the fiscal year immediately preceding ICG's acquisition
                   of the Company's Securities, historical audited annual
                   consolidated financial statements;

               (2) For all periods subsequent to ICG's acquisition of the
                   Securities, unaudited quarterly consolidated financial
                   statements consisting of, at a minimum, a balance sheet, an
                   income statement, statement of shareholders' equity and a
                   statement of cash flows, which the Company will deliver to
                   ICG no later than 30 days after the end of each of the
                   Company's first, second and third fiscal quarters;

               (3) Upon written request by ICG, audited (by a Big Five
                   accounting firm) annual consolidated financial statements for
                   the most recent fiscal year, which the Company will deliver
                   to ICG no later than 75 days after the end of the Company's
                   fiscal year, and for such other prior fiscal years as ICG may
                   reasonably require; and

               (4) Such other information as ICG may from time to time
                   reasonably request.

         In addition, so long as ICG or any of its affiliates beneficially own
any of the Securities, the Company will provide ICG with such assistance and
cooperation, as ICG may, from time to time, reasonably request in making any
governmental filings or obtaining any governmental approvals in connection with
ICG's or its affiliates' ownership of Securities or conversion from non-voting
to voting Securities (including, without limitation, making any filings required
to be made by the Company or by ICG or its affiliates under any applicable
federal or state laws or regulations).

Gentlemen:

         This will confirm our agreement as follows:

         1. Pending the enlargement of the Company's board of directors and the
designation of new directors by SCP and ICG (the "Purchasers") as provided for
and contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall use its best
efforts to obtain the resignation from its board of Christopher Greendale, and
shall allow such seat to remain vacant until filled by a designee of the
Purchasers. The creation and maintenance of such vacancy shall be an additional
condition precedent to any obligation of the Purchasers to purchase the Initial
Preferred Stock (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and, in the case of SCP,
the Option Preferred Stock (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
