mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, instrument or contract to which it is
party or by which it is bound or of any judgment, decree, order, writ or, to its
knowledge, any statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company which would

condition, operations or prospects of the Company. The execution, delivery, and
performance of and compliance with the Financing Documents, and the issuance and
sale of the Series C Shares, the Series B Shares and the Conversion Shares
pursuant thereto, will not, with or without the passage of time or giving of
notice, result in any such material violation, or be in conflict with or
constitute a default under any such term, or result in the creation of any

Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.

local and foreign tax returns and reports within the times and in the manner

make any payment to such employee upon termination. True and complete copies of
all written employment agreements with the key executive officers of the Company
listed on Item 3.14 of the Disclosure Schedule have been made available to
Purchaser prior to the Closing Date. To the Company's knowledge, no employee of

employees are obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants, or
commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment,
decree, or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere
with the use of his/her reasonable diligence to promote the interests of the

carrying on of the Company's business by the employees of the Company, nor the
conduct of the Company's business as proposed, will, to the Company's knowledge,
conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of,
or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which
any of such employees is obligated, which conflict, breach or default would be
materially adverse to the Company.

         3.15 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS MATTERS. The Company does not maintain or
contribute to any plan or arrangement that constitutes an "employee pension
benefit plan" as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA, and is not obligated to

and has not granted any rights, to register any of the Company's presently
outstanding securities or any of its securities that may hereafter be issued.

         3.17 GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS/THIRD PARTY CONSENTS. All consents,
approvals or authorizations of, or registrations, qualifications, designations,
declarations or filings with any federal or state governmental authority, and
all consents, approvals or authorizations of any third party required in
connection with the execution of the Financing Documents and the performance of

Shares and the Warrant) have been obtained by the Company. The Company has, or
has rights to acquire, all licenses, permits and other similar authority
necessary for the conduct of its business as now being conducted by it and as
planned to be conducted, the lack of which could materially and adversely affect
the operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Company, and it is
not in default in any material respect under any of such licenses, permits or
other similar authority.

         3.18 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. (a) The Company has complied with and is in
compliance in all material respects with all foreign, federal, state and local
statutes, laws, ordinances, regulations, rules, judgments, orders and decrees

has received no written notice of any claim of default under or violation of any
statute, law, ordinance, regulation, rule, judgment, order or decree except for
any such noncompliance or claim of default or violation, if any, which in the
aggregate do not and will not have a material adverse effect the property,
operations, financial condition or prospects of the Company.

warranties of Purchaser contained in Section 4 hereof, the offer, sale and
issuance of the Shares and the Warrant will be exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act and will have been registered or qualified
(or are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration,

         3.21 ACCURACY OF INFORMATION FURNISHED. The Financing Documents, as
well as any exhibit, certificate, written statement, material or information

         4.2. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. Purchaser understands that the Shares
and the Warrant have not been registered under the Securities Act. Purchaser
also understands that the Shares and the Warrant are being offered and sold
pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the Securities Act based
in part upon Purchaser's representations contained in this Agreement. Purchaser
hereby represents and warrants as follows:

                  (a) PURCHASER BEARS ECONOMIC RISK. Purchaser has substantial
experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of
securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the
capacity to protect its own interests. Purchaser must bear the economic risk of
this investment indefinitely unless the Shares or Warrant are registered
pursuant to the Securities Act, or an exemption from registration is available.
Purchaser understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from
registration under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if
available, such exemption may not allow Purchaser to transfer all or any portion
of the Shares or Warrant under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times
Purchaser might propose.

                  (b) ACQUISITION FOR OWN ACCOUNT. Purchaser is acquiring the
Shares and the Warrant for Purchaser's own account for investment only, and not
with a view towards their distribution.

                  (c) PURCHASER CAN PROTECT ITS INTEREST. Purchaser represents
that by reason of its, or of its management's, business or financial experience,
Purchaser has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the
transactions contemplated in the Financing Documents.

                  (d) ACCREDITED INVESTOR. Purchaser represents that it is an
accredited investor within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

                  (e) COMPANY INFORMATION. Purchaser has received and read the
Financial Statements and has had an opportunity to discuss the Company's
business, management and financial affairs with directors, officers and
management of the Company and has had the opportunity to review the Company's
operations and facilities. Purchaser also has had the opportunity to ask
questions of and receive answers from, the Company and its management regarding
the terms and conditions of this investment.

                  (f) RULE 144. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the
Shares and the Warrant must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently
registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is
available. Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act, which permits limited resale of shares
purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain current
public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one
year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sale
being through an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly
with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Exchange Act) and the
number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding
specified limitations.

required by law, of a legend on certificates representing all of the Shares to
the following effect:

         "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN

Exercise Price by (i) cashier's or certified check or bank draft payable to the
Company's order, or (ii) by wire transfer to the Company's account for the
number of Warrant Shares for which the purchase rights hereunder are being
exercised, or (iii) following the procedures set forth in Section 1.4(b).

                  1.3. Automatic Exercise. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 1.1 above, this Warrant shall automatically be deemed to be exercised in
full in the manner set forth in Section 1.4 hereof, without any further action
on behalf of the Holder (other than the payment of the exercise price) on the
earliest of a date: (a) immediately prior to the time this Warrant would
otherwise expire, or (b) ten (10) days prior to a "Sale of the Company" (as
defined). A "Sale of the Company" shall mean either of the following (i) the
acquisition of all or substantially all of the capital stock of the Company by
another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions
(including, without limitation, any reorganization, merger or consolidation but,

after such acquisition or sale (by virtue of securities issued as consideration
for the Company's acquisition or sale or otherwise) hold less than 50% of the
voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity; or (ii) a sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company. . In connection with the
exercise of this Warrant pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 1.3, such
exercise shall be conditioned upon the closing of such Sale of the Company and
the Warrant shall not be deemed to have been exercised until the closing of such
Sale of the Company.

                  1.4. Net Issue Election.

                           (a) Upon automatic exercise of this Warrant as
provided in Section 1.3 above or at any time or from time to time as the Holder
may elect, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, without the payment by the
Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the
value of this Warrant or any portion hereof by the surrender of this Warrant or
such portion to the Company, with the net issue election notice attached hereto
as Exhibit B duly executed, at the principal office of the Company. Thereupon,
the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using the following formula:

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

         where:            X= the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
to the Holder.

                           Y= the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
this Warrant in respect of which the net issue election is made.

                           A= the fair market value of one share of Common
Stock, as determined pursuant to subsection (b) below, as at the time the net
issue election is made.

                                       2
<PAGE>

                           B= the Exercise Price in effect under this Warrant at
the time the net issue election is made.

                           (b) Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes
of this Section, fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of a
particular date (the "Determination Date") shall mean:

                                    (1) In the case of a Sale of the Company,
         the effective per share consideration to be received in a Sale of the
         Company by holders of the Common Stock, or if no such price is set
         forth in the agreement concerning the Sale of the Company, then as
         determined pursuant to subsections (b)(2) and (b)(3) below;

                                    (2) If the Company's Common Stock is listed
         or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq SmallCap Market,
         OTC Bulletin Board or other security exchange, the closing price of the
         Company's Common Stock on such exchange or the Nasdaq National Market,
         the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, OTC Bulletin Board on the day notice of
         exercise is provided to the Company under Section 1.4(b) hereof; or

                                    (3) If Sections 1.4(b)(1) or (2) do not
         apply, then as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith;
         provided, however, that if the Holder does not agree with such
         determination, then the Holder shall be entitled to request within ten
         days of the date of such determination that the determination of fair
         market value be submitted to an independent appraiser. In such event,
         the Holder and the Company shall each select an independent appraiser,
         which appraisers shall select a third independent appraiser within 30
         days of the expiration of the ten-day period reference above to conduct
         the appraisal. The appraisal of the third appraiser shall control and
         be the fair market value of the Common Stock for purposes of this
         Warrant. The cost of the appraiser shall be borne equally by the
         Company and the Holder; provided, however, that if the fair market
         value determination of the appraiser exceeds the fair market value
         determination of the Board of Directors by 15% or more, the cost of the
         appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

                  1.5. Issuance of Shares. Upon the exercise of the purchase
rights, in whole or in part, evidenced by this Warrant, a certificate or
certificates for the purchased Warrant Shares shall be issued by the Company to
the Holder as soon as practicable. Upon the partial exercise of this Warrant,
the Company shall, as soon as practicable, deliver to the Holder a warrant in
like tenor as this Warrant to purchase the number of shares in respect of which
this Warrant shall not have been exercised.

         2. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.

                  2.1. Common Stock Dividends. If the Company at any time prior
to the expiration of this Warrant shall pay a dividend with respect to the
Company's Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or make any
distribution with respect to the Company's Common Stock, then the purchase price
per share shall be appropriately decreased, and the number of Warrant Shares
shall be appropriately increased in proportion to such dividend.

                                       3
<PAGE>

                  2.2. Splits and Subdivisions. In the event the Company should
at any time or from time to time fix a record date for a split or subdivision of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, or the determination of
the holders of Common Stock of the Company entitled to receive a dividend or
other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock of the Company
or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof
to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of the Company's Common
Stock (hereinafter referred to as the "Common Stock Equivalents") without
payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, and as of such record
date (or the date of such distribution, split or subdivision if no record date
is fixed), the per share purchase price shall be appropriately decreased, and
the number of Warrant Shares shall be appropriately increased in proportion to
such increase of outstanding shares.

                  2.3. Combination of Shares. If the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding at any time after the date hereof is decreased by a
combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, the per
share purchase price shall be appropriately increased and the number of Warrant
Shares shall be appropriately decreased in proportion to such decrease in
outstanding shares.

                  2.4. Adjustments for Other Distributions. In the event the
Company shall declare a distribution with respect to the Common Stock payable in
securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Company or
other persons, assets, or options, or rights not referred to above, then, in
each such case for the purpose of this Section 2, upon exercise of this Warrant
the holder hereof shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such
distribution as though such holder was the holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock of the Company into which this Warrant may be exercised as of the
record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the
Company entitled to receive such distribution.

                  2.5. Certificate as to Adjustments. In the case of each
adjustment or readjustment of the purchase price pursuant to this Section 2, the
Company will promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with
the terms hereof and cause a certificate setting forth such adjustment or
readjustment, and showing in detail the fact upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based to be delivered to the holder of this Warrant.

                  The Company will, upon the written request at any time of the
holder of this Warrant, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a
certificate setting forth:

                           (a) such adjustments and readjustments;

                           (b) the purchase price at the time in effect; and

                           (c) the number of Warrant Shares receivable upon the
                               exercise of the Warrant.

<PAGE>

                  2.6. Notice of Record Date, etc. In the event of any taking by
the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities of the Company
for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive
any dividend (other than a cash dividend), or other distribution, or any right
to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class
or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or any
capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization
of the capital stock of the Company, the Company will mail to the holder of this
Warrant at least twenty (20) days prior to the earliest date specified therein,

                           (a) The date on which such record is to be taken for
the purpose of such dividend distribution or right and the amount and character
of such dividend, distribution or right; or
