         3.1 Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as set forth
under the corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedules delivered
concurrently herewith, the Company hereby makes the following representations
and warranties as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to each
Purchaser:

                  (a)      Subsidiaries. The Company has no direct or indirect
         subsidiaries. Any references to Subsidiaries in the Transaction
         Documents shall be disregarded.

                  (b)      Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company
         and the Subsidiaries is an entity duly incorporated or otherwise
         organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
         jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization (as applicable), with
         the requisite corporate power and authority to own and use its
         properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently
         conducted. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of
         any of the provisions of its respective certificate or articles of
         incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents.
         Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct
         business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other
         entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business
         conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary,
         except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the
         case may be, would not have or reasonably be expected to result in (i)
         a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability
         of any Transaction Document, (ii) a material adverse effect on the
         results of operations, assets, business or financial condition of the
         Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) a material
         adverse effect on the Company's ability to perform in any material
         respect on a timely basis its obligations under any Transaction
         Document (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a "Material Adverse Effect").

                  (c)      Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the
         requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate
         the transactions contemplated by

                                       5
<PAGE>

         each of the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its
         obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery of each of the
         Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the
         transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all
         necessary action on the part of the Company and no further action is
         required by the Company in connection therewith. Each Transaction
         Document has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by
         the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof,
         will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company
         enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except (i)
         as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
         moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement
         of creditors' rights generally and (ii) as limited by laws relating to
         the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other
         equitable remedies, and (iii) with respect to the indemnification
         provisions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, as limited
         by public policy.

                  (d)      No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance
         of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the
         Company of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not
         (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Company's or any
         Subsidiary's certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other
         organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with, or
         constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or
         both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of
         termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without
         notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt
         or other instrument (evidencing a Company or Subsidiary debt or
         otherwise) or other understanding to which the Company or any
         Subsidiary is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company
         or any Subsidiary is bound or affected, or (iii) result in a violation
         of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or
         other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which the
         Company or a Subsidiary is subject (including federal and state
         securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of
         the Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected; except in the case of
         each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as would not have or reasonably be
         expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (e)      Filings, Consents and Approvals. The Company is not
         required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give
         any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or
         other federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other
         Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by
         the Company of the Transaction Documents, other than (a) the filing
         with the Commission of the Registration Statement, the application(s)
         to each Trading Market for the listing of the Shares and Warrant Shares
         for trading thereon in the time and manner required thereby, Form D and

         or such exemptive filings as are required to be made under applicable
         securities laws.

                  (f)      Issuance of the Securities. The Securities are duly
         authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the
         Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
         nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens. The Company has reserved
         from its duly authorized capital stock the maximum number of shares of
         Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement and the Warrants.

                                       6

                  (g)      Capitalization. The authorized and outstanding
         capitalization of the Company is as described in the Company's most
         recent periodic report filed with the Commission. The Company has not
         issued any capital stock since such filing other than pursuant to the
         exercise of employee stock options under the Company's stock option
         plans and pursuant to the conversion or exercise of Common Stock
         Equivalents outstanding on the date thereof. No Person has any right of
         first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar
         right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the
         Transaction Documents. Except as a result of the purchase and sale of
         the Securities and except for employee and director stock options under
         the Company's stock option plans, there are no outstanding options,
         warrants, script rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any
         character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations
         convertible into or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to
         subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common Stock, or contracts,
         commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any
         Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common
         Stock, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares
         of Common Stock. The issue and sale of the Securities will not obligate
         the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any
         Person (other than the Purchasers) and will not result in a right of
         any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion,
         exchange or reset price under such securities. All of the outstanding
         shares of capital stock of the Company are validly issued, fully paid
         and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all federal and
         state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares was issued
         in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe
         for or purchase securities. No further approval or authorization of any
         stockholder, the Board of Directors of the Company or others is
         required for the issuance and sale of the Shares. Except as disclosed
         in the SEC Reports, there are no stockholders agreements, voting
         agreements or other similar agreements with respect to the Company's
         capital stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of
         the Company, between or among any of the Company's stockholders.

                  (h)      SEC Reports; Financial Statements. The Company has
         filed all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act
         and the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of
         the Exchange Act, for the two years preceding the date hereof (or such
         shorter period as the Company was required by law to file such
         material) (the foregoing materials, including the exhibits thereto,
         being collectively referred to herein as the "SEC Reports" and,
         together with the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, the
         "Disclosure Materials") on a timely basis or has received a valid
         extension of such time of filing and has filed any such SEC Reports
         prior to the expiration of any such extension. As of their respective
         dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the
         requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules
         and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, as
         applicable, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any
         untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
         required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
         statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
         made, not misleading. The financial statements of the Company included
         in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable
         accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission
         with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial
         statements have been prepared in accordance with generally

                                       7
<PAGE>

         accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the
         periods involved ("GAAP"), except as may be otherwise specified in such
         financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited
         financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP,
         and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of
         the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the dates
         thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods
         then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal,
         immaterial, year-end audit adjustments.

                  (i)      Material Changes. Since the date of the most recent
         quarterly report on Form 10-Q, except as disclosed in the SEC Reports,
         (i) there has been no event, occurrence or development that has had or
         that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
         Effect, (ii) the Company has not incurred any liabilities (contingent
         or otherwise) other than (A) trade payables and accrued expenses
         incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
         practice and (B) liabilities not required to be reflected in the
         Company's financial statements pursuant to GAAP or required to be
         disclosed in filings made with the Commission, (iii) the Company has
         not altered its method of accounting, (iv) the Company has not declared
         or made any dividend or distribution of cash or other property to its
         stockholders or purchased, redeemed or made any agreements to purchase
         or redeem any shares of its capital stock and (v) the Company has not
         issued any equity securities to any officer, director or Affiliate,
         except pursuant to existing Company stock option plans. The Company
         does not have pending before the Commission any request for
         confidential treatment of information.

                  (j)      Litigation. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports,
         there is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding or
         investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened
         against or affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their
         respective properties before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental
         or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state,
         county, local or foreign) (collectively, an "Action") which (i)
         adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or
         enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the Securities or
         (ii) could, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably
         be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company
         nor any Subsidiary, nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any director
         or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action involving
         a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities
         laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been, and to
         the knowledge of the Company, there is not pending or contemplated, any
         investigation by the Commission involving the Company or any current or
         former director or officer of the Company. The Commission has not
         issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of
         any registration statement filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under
         the Exchange Act or the Securities Act.

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

                  (l)      Compliance. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports,
         neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (i) is in default under or in
         violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that,
         with notice or lapse of time or both, would result

                                       8

<PAGE>

         in a default by the Company or any Subsidiary under), nor has the
         Company or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in
         default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or
         credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a
         party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not
         such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any
         order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is or has
         been in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any
         governmental authority, including without limitation all foreign,
         federal, state and local laws applicable to its business, except in the
         case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) as would not have or reasonably be
         expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

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

                  (n)      Title to Assets. The Company and the Subsidiaries
         have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned
         by them that is material to the business of the Company and the
         Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and good and marketable title in all
         personal property owned by them that is material to the business of the
         Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in each case free and
         clear of all Liens, except for Liens as do not materially affect the
         value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use
         made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the
         Subsidiaries and Liens for the payment of federal, state or other
         taxes, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to
         penalties. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the
         Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting
         and enforceable leases with which the Company and the Subsidiaries are
         in material compliance.

                  (o)      Patents and Trademarks. To the knowledge of the
         Company and each Subsidiary, the Company and the Subsidiaries have, or
         have rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks,
         trademark applications, service marks, trade names, copyrights,
         licenses and other similar rights that are necessary or material for
         use in connection with their respective businesses as described in the
         SEC Reports and which the failure to so have could have or reasonably
         be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the
         "Intellectual Property Rights"). Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
         has received a written notice that the Intellectual Property Rights
         used by the Company or any Subsidiary violates or infringes the rights
         of any Person. To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual
         Property Rights are enforceable.

                  (p)      Insurance. The Company and the Subsidiaries are
         insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such
         losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in
         the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged.
         Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that
         it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and
         when such coverage

                                        9
<PAGE>

         expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be
         necessary to continue its business without a significant increase in
         cost.

                  (q)      Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. Except as
         set forth in the SEC Reports, none of the officers or directors of the
         Company and, to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of
         the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company or
         any Subsidiary (other than for services as employees, officers and
         directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement
         providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental
         of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring
         payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the
         knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or
         any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer,
         director, trustee or partner, in each case in excess of $60,000 other
         than (a) for payment of salary or consulting fees for services
         rendered, (b) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the
         Company and (c) for other employee benefits, including stock option
         agreements under any stock option plan of the Company.

                  (r)      Sarbanes-Oxley; Internal Accounting Controls. The
         Company is in material compliance with all provisions of the
         Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which are applicable to it as of the Closing
         Date. The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal
         accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i)
         transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or
         specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to
         permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and
         to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted
         only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization,
         and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the
         existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken
         with respect to any differences. The Company has established disclosure
         controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
         15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and
         procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company,
         including its subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by
         others within those entities, particularly during the period in which
         the Company's most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange
         Act, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's certifying
         officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and
         procedures as of the date prior to the filing date of the most recently
         filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the
         "Evaluation Date"). The Company presented in its most recently filed
         periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the
         certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
         and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date.
         Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in
         the Company's internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b)
         of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or, to the Company's
         knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the
         Company's internal controls.

                  (s)      Certain Fees. Except for fees payable to Rodman &
         Renshaw, Inc., no brokerage or finder's fees or commissions are or will
         be payable by the Company to any broker, financial advisor or
         consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other
         Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
         The

                                       10
<PAGE>

         Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with
         respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of
         a type contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with
         the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

                  (t)      Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the
         Purchasers representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, no
         registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and
         sale of the Securities by the Company to the Purchasers as contemplated
         hereby. The issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not
         contravene the rules and regulations of the Trading Market.

                  (u)      Investment Company. The Company is not, and is not an
         Affiliate of, an "investment company" within the meaning of the
         Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

                  (v)      Registration Rights. No Person has any right to cause
         the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any
         securities of the Company.

                  (w)      Form S-3 Eligibility. The Company is eligible to
         register the resale of its Common Stock by the Purchasers under Form
         S-3 promulgated under the Securities Act.

                  (x)      Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Company's
         Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange
         Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its
         knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration
         of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received
         any notification that the Commission is contemplating terminating such
         registration. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, the Company has
         not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from
         any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or
         quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the
         listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company
         is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable
         future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and
         maintenance requirements.

                  (y)      Application of Takeover Protections. The Company and
         its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in
         order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business
         combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights
         agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company's
         Certificate of Incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the laws
         of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the
         Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling
         their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction
         Documents, including without limitation the Company's issuance of the
         Securities and the Purchasers' ownership of the Securities.

                  (z)      Disclosure. The Company confirms that, neither the
         Company nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of
         the Purchasers or their agents or counsel with any information that
         constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information. The
         Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the
         foregoing representations and covenants in effecting transactions in
         securities of the Company. All disclosure provided to the Purchasers
         regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated
         hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this

                                       11
<PAGE>

         Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of the Company are true and
         correct and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
         omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
         statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
         were made, not misleading.

                  (aa)     No Integrated Offering. Relying in part on the
         representations of the Purchasers set forth in Section 3.2(j), neither
         the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or
         their behalf (provided, that the Company makes no representation with
         respect to the actions of Rodman & Renshaw, Inc.) has, directly or
         indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any
         offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this
         offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the
         Company for purposes of the Securities Act or any applicable
         shareholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under
         the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system
         on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.

                  (bb)     Solvency. Based on the financial condition of the
         Company as of the Closing Date, (i) the Company's fair saleable value
         of its assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or
         in respect of the Company's existing debts and other liabilities
         (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the
         Company's assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry
         on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as
         proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into
         account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted
         by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital
         availability thereof, and including the anticipated proceeds of the
         sale of the Securities; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company,
         together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to
         liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated
         uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in
         respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. The
         Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such
         debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of
         cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).

                  (cc)     Taxes. Except for matters that would not,
         individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to
         result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and each Subsidiary
         has filed all necessary federal, state and foreign income and franchise
         tax returns and has paid or accrued all taxes shown as due thereon, and
         the Company has no knowledge of a tax deficiency which has been
         asserted or threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary.

                  (dd)     Acknowledgment Regarding Purchasers' Purchase of
         Shares. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers
         is acting solely in the capacity of an arm's length purchaser with
         respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
         hereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as
         a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar
         capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions
         contemplated hereby and any advice given by any Purchaser or any of
         their respective representatives or agents in connection with this
         Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is merely incidental
         to the Purchasers' purchase of the Shares. The Company further
         represents to each Purchaser

                                       12
<PAGE>

         that the Company's decision to enter into this Agreement has been based
         solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated
         hereby by the Company and its representatives.

         3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser
hereby, for itself and for no other Purchaser, represents and warrants as of the
date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as follows:

                  (a)      Organization; Authority. Such Purchaser is an entity
         duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
         the jurisdiction of its organization with full right, corporate,
         limited liability company or partnership power and authority to enter
         into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
         Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder. The
         execution, delivery and performance by such Purchaser of the
         transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been duly authorized by
         all necessary corporate or similar action on the part of such
         Purchaser. Each Transaction Document to which it is a party has been
         duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser
         in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and
         legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in
         accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by general equitable
         principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
         moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement
         of creditors' rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the
         availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other
         equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and
         contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

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

                  (c)      No Public Sale or Distribution. Such Purchaser is (i)
         acquiring the Shares and (ii) upon exercise of the Warrants will
         acquire the Warrant Shares, for its own account and not with a view
         towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or
         distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted
         under the Securities Act; provided, however, that by making the
         representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold any of
         the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the
         right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with or
         pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the
         Securities Act. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in
         the ordinary course of its business. Such Purchaser does not have any
         agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to
         distribute any of the Securities.

                  (d)      Accredited Investor Status. Such Purchaser is an
         "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of
         Regulation D. Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a
         broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.

                  (e)      Reliance on Exemptions. Such Purchaser understands
         that the Shares and Warrants are being offered and sold to it in
         reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of
         United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is
         relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Purchaser's
         compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements,
         acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein
         in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the
         eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Common Stock and Warrants.

                  (f)      Information. Such Purchaser and its advisors, if any,
         have been furnished with all publicly available materials relating to
         the business, finances and operations of the Company and such other
         publicly available materials relating to the offer and sale of the
         Shares and Warrants as have been requested by such Purchaser. Such
         Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity
         to ask questions of the Company. Neither such inquiries nor any other
         due diligence investigations conducted by such Purchaser or its
         advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect
         such Purchaser's right to rely on the Company's representations and
         warranties contained herein. Such Purchaser understands that its
         investment in the Shares and Warrants involves a high degree of risk.
         Such Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it
         has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with
         respect to its acquisition of the Shares and Warrants.

                  (g)      No Governmental Review. Such Purchaser understands
         that no United States federal or state agency or any other government
         or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or
         endorsement of the Shares and Warrants or the fairness or suitability
         of the investment in the Shares and Warrants nor have such authorities
         passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Shares and
         Warrants.

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

                  (i)      Tax Liability. Such Purchaser has reviewed with its
         own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences
         of this investment and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
         Documents. With respect to such matters, such Purchaser relies solely
         on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the
         Company or any of its agents other than the representations and
         warranties set forth herein. Such Purchaser understands that it (and
         not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liability that
         may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions
         contemplated by this Agreement.

                         OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

         4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

                  (a)     The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance
         with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer
         of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration
         statement or Rule 144, to the Company, to an Affiliate of a Purchaser
         or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the
         Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an
         opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance
         of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to
         the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such
         transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of
         transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the
         terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Purchaser under
         this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.

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

                  THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES
                  AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY
                  STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER
                  THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"),
                  AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT
                  TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES
                  ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A
                  TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF
                  THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
                  SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO
                  THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE
                  REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE
                  PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A
                  REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL
                  INSTITUTION THAT IS AN "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" AS DEFINED IN
                  RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

                  The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from
         time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a
         registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of
         the Securities to a financial institution that is an "accredited
         investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if
         required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may
         transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured
         parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of
         the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee,
         secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith.
         Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate
         Purchaser's expense, the Company will execute and deliver such
         reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities
         may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the

                                       15
<PAGE>

         Securities, including the preparation and filing of any required
         prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or
         other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend
         the list of Selling Stockholders thereunder.

                  (c)      Certificates evidencing the Shares and Warrant Shares
         shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section
         4.1(b)), (i) while a registration statement (including the Registration
         Statement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the
         Securities Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Shares or Warrant
         Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Shares or Warrant Shares
         are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such legend is not
         required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including
         judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the
         Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal
         opinion to the Company's transfer agent promptly after the Effective
         Date if required by the Company's transfer agent to effect the removal
         of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion of a Warrant is
         exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement
         to cover the resale of the Warrant Shares, such Warrant Shares shall be
         issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following the
         Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required
         under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than three Trading Days
         following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company's
         transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares or Warrant Shares,
         as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend (such date, the
         "Legend Removal Date", deliver or cause to be delivered to such
         Purchaser a certificate representing such Securities that is free from
         all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any
         notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of
         the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this
         Section.

                  (d)      In addition to such Purchaser's other available
         remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial
         liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Shares or
         Warrant Shares (based on the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the
         date such Securities are submitted to the Company's transfer agent)
         subject to Section 4.1(c), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per
         Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such damages have begun to
         accrue) for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date until such
         certificate is delivered. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser's
         right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to deliver
         certificates representing any Securities as required by the Transaction
         Documents, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all
         remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without
         limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

                  (e)      Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the
         other Purchasers, agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend
         from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section
         4.1 is predicated upon the Company's reliance on, and the Purchaser's
         agreement that, and each Purchaser hereby agrees that, the Purchaser
         will not sell any Securities except pursuant to either the registration
         requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus
         delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom.

                                       16
<PAGE>

         4.2 Furnishing of Information. As long as any Purchaser owns
Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in
respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports
required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the
Exchange Act. Upon the request of any such holder of Securities, the Company
shall deliver to such holder a written certification of a duly authorized
officer as to whether it has complied with the preceding sentence. As long as
any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports
pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and
make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is
required for the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company
further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of
Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable such Person to sell such Securities without registration under the
Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.

         4.3 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit
offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in
Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale
of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the
Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers or that would be
integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules
and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would required shareholder
approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder
approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

         4.4 Limitation on Future Financing. From the date hereof until the
earlier of 120 calendar days after the Closing Date or 15 calendar days after
the Effective Date, the Company shall not effect a financing of its Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents (a "Subsequent Financing"). Further, the Company
shall not file any registration statement with respect to any Subsequent
Financing prior to 15 calendar days after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, this Section 4.4 shall not apply to the
following: (a) the granting of options to employees, officers and directors of
the Company pursuant to any stock option plan duly adopted by a majority of the
non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of
the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such
purpose (and the exercise of such options), or (b) the exercise of any security
issued by the Company in connection with the offer and sale of the Company's
securities pursuant to this Agreement, or (c) the exercise of or conversion of
any convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the
date hereof, provided such securities have not been amended since the date
hereof, or (d) acquisitions or strategic investments, the primary purpose of
which is not to raise capital.

         4.5 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, by 8:30
a.m. Eastern time on the Business Day following the date hereof, file a Current
Report on Form 8-K, disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby and make
such other filings and notices in the manner and time required by the
Commission. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with each other in
issuing any press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby,
and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release or
otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the
Company, with respect to any press release of any Purchaser, or without the
prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the
Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if
such

                                       17
<PAGE>

disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly
provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or
communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly
disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any
filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without
the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (i) as required by federal
securities law in connection with the registration statement contemplated by the
Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required
by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide
the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under subclause
(i) or (ii).

         4.6 Shareholders Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the
Company or any other Person that any Purchaser is an "Acquiring Person" under
any shareholders rights plan or similar plan or arrangement in effect or
hereafter adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser could be deemed to
trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving
Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between
the Company and the Purchasers.

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

         4.8 Use of Proceeds. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.8 attached
hereto, the Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities
hereunder for working capital purposes and not for the satisfaction of any
portion of the Company's debt (other than payment of trade payables in the
ordinary course of the Company's business and prior practices), to redeem any
Company equity or equity-equivalent securities or to settle any outstanding
litigation.

         4.9 [Intentionally Omitted]

         4.10 Indemnification of Purchasers. The Company will indemnify and hold
the Purchasers and their Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders,
partners, employees, controlling persons and agents (each, a "Purchaser Party")
harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims,
contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts
paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of
investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of
or relating to: (a) any misrepresentation, breach or inaccuracy, or any
allegation by a third party that, if true, would constitute a breach or
inaccuracy, of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents; or
(b) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Purchaser
Party by any Person and arising solely out of or solely resulting from the
execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any of the
other Transaction Documents, including without limitation by the purchase of the
Securities, and without causation by any other activity, obligation, condition
or liability pertaining to such Purchaser. The Company will reimburse such
Purchaser for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any
investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith) incurred in
connection therewith, as such

                                       18
<PAGE>

expenses are incurred. The Company also agrees that neither the Purchasers nor
any such Affiliates, partners, directors, agents, employees or controlling
persons shall have any liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims
on behalf of or in right of the Company solely as a result of acquiring the
Securities under this Agreement.

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

         4.12 Listing of Common Stock. The Company hereby agrees to use
commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on
the Trading Market, and as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing
(but not later than the earlier of the Effective Date and the first anniversary
of the Closing Date) to list the applicable Shares and Warrant Shares on the
Trading Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the
Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will include in such
application the Shares and the Warrant Shares, and will take such other action
as is necessary or desirable in the opinion of the Purchasers to cause the
Shares and Warrant Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly
as possible. The Company will take all action reasonably necessary to continue
the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market and will comply
in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under
the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.

         4.13 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration shall be offered
or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any
provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is
also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. For
clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to
each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and
is intended to treat for the Company the Purchasers as a class and shall not in
any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with
respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.

         4.14 Short Selling. Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that
the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of short sales of shares of
the Common Stock "against the box" prior to the Effective Date of the
Registration Statement with the Shares purchased hereunder is a violation of
Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Item 65, Section 5 under
Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated
July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation
Finance. Accordingly, each Purchaser hereby agrees not to use any of the Shares
to cover any short sales made prior to the Effective Date.

Securities.

against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default
with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall
be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent
default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor
shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in
any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and
all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. If either party shall
commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of a Transaction
Document, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be
reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys fees and other costs and
expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such
action or proceeding.

         5.9 Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants
contained herein shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Shares.

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

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

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

                                       21
<PAGE>

circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with
the issuance of such replacement Securities.

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

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

         5.15 Independent Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and Rights. The
obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not
joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any
Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Document. Each
Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights,
including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of
the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other
Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel
in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of
administrative convenience only, Purchasers and their respective counsel have
chosen to communicate with the Company through FW. FW does not represent any of
the Purchasers in this transaction but only the placement agent. The Company has
elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents
for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested
to do so by the Purchasers.

                  This Agreement is made pursuant to the Securities Purchase
Agreement, dated as of the date hereof among the Company and the Purchasers (the
"Purchase Agreement").

                  The Company and the Purchasers hereby agree as follows:

         prepare and file with the Commission the Registration Statement
         covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities for an
         offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. The
         Registration Statement required hereunder shall be on Form S-3 (except
         if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the
         Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case the Registration
         shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith). The
         Registration Statement required hereunder shall contain (except if
         otherwise directed by the Holders) the "Plan of Distribution" attached
         hereto as Annex A. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable
         efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective
         under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing
         thereof, but in any event not later than the Effectiveness Date, and
         shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration
         Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the
         date when all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
         Statement (a) have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement or
         an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
         or (b) may be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k)
         as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written
         opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the
         Company's transfer agent and the affected Holders (the "Effectiveness
         Period").

                                       2

<PAGE>

                  (b)      If: (i) a Registration Statement is not filed on or
         prior to its Filing Date (if the Company files a Registration Statement
         without affording the Holder the opportunity to review and comment on
         the same as required by Section 3(a), the Company shall not be deemed
         to have satisfied this clause (i)); or (ii) the Company fails to file
         with the Commission a request for acceleration in accordance with Rule
         461 promulgated under the Securities Act, within five Trading Days of
         the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever
         is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not be
         "reviewed," or not subject to further review, or (iii) prior to the
         date when such Registration Statement is first declared effective by
         the Commission, the Company fails to file a pre-effective amendment and
         otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the Commission in
         respect of such Registration Statement within ten Trading Days after
         the receipt of comments by or notice from the Commission that such
         amendment is required in order for a Registration Statement to be
         declared effective, or (iv) a Registration Statement filed or required
         to be filed hereunder is not declared effective by the Commission on or
         before the Effectiveness Date, or (v) after a Registration Statement is
         first declared effective by the Commission, it ceases for any reason to
         remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for
         which it is required to be effective, or the Holders are not permitted
         to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable
         Securities, for in any such cases ten Trading Days (which need not be
         consecutive days) in the aggregate during any 12-month period (any such
         failure or breach being referred to as an "Event," and for purposes of
         clause (i) or (iv) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes
         of clause (ii) the date on which such five Trading Day period is
         exceeded, or for purposes of clauses (iii) the date which such ten
         Trading Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (v) the date
         on which such ten Trading Day period is exceeded being referred to as
         "Event Date"), then in addition to any other rights the Holders may
         have hereunder or under applicable law: (x) on each such Event Date the
         Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial
         liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2.0% of the aggregate
         purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement
         for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder; and (y) on
         each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable
         Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable
         Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash,
         as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2.0% of
         the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the
         Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such
         Holder. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages
         pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date
         payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per
         annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by
         applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such
         partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such
         interest thereon, are paid in full.

                  (c)      If during the Effectiveness Period, the number of
         Registrable Securities at any time exceeds 100% of the number of shares
         of Common Stock then registered in a Registration Statement, then the
         Company shall file as soon as reasonably practicable but in any case
         prior to the 30th day following the date such number is exceeded, an
         additional Registration Statement covering the resale of by the Holders
         of not less than all of such Registrable Securities and the Company
         shall use commercially reasonable

                                       3

<PAGE>

         efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective
         as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

         3.       Registration Procedures

                  In connection with the Company's registration obligations
hereunder, the Company shall:

                  (a)      Not less than three Trading Days prior to the filing
         of the Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any
         amendment or supplement thereto, the Company shall, (i) furnish to the
         Holders copies of all such documents proposed to be filed (including
         documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference to the
         extent requested by such Person) which documents will be subject to the
         review of such Holders, and (ii) cause its officers and directors,
         counsel and independent certified public accountants to respond to such
         inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of
         respective counsel to conduct a reasonable investigation within the
         meaning of the Securities Act. The Company shall not file the
         Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments or
         supplements thereto to which the Holders of a majority of the
         Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith on the
         advice of counsel to a Holder.

                  (b)      (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such
         amendments, including post-effective amendments, to the Registration
         Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be
         necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective as
         to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period
         and prepare and file with the Commission such additional Registration
         Statements in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all
         of the Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be
         amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as
         so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii)
         respond as promptly as reasonably possible, and in any event within ten
         Trading Days, to any comments received from the Commission with respect
         to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and, as promptly
         as reasonably possible, upon request, provide the Holders true and
         complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission
         relating to the Registration Statement; and (iv) comply in all material
         respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
         with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered
         by the Registration Statement during the applicable period in
         accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders
         thereof set forth in the Registration Statement as so amended or in
         such Prospectus as so supplemented.

                  (c)      Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be
         sold as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A)
         below, not less than two Trading Days prior to such filing) and (if
         requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing promptly
         following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement
         or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed
         to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there
         will be a "review" of the Registration Statement and whenever the
         Commission comments in writing on the

                                       4

<PAGE>

         Registration Statement (the Company shall upon request provide true and
         complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of
         the Holders); and (C) with respect to the Registration Statement or any
         post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of
         any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state
         governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the
         Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to the
         Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information;
         (iii) of the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state
         governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness
         of the Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable
         Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv)
         of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
         suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any
         of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the
         initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v)
         of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the
         financial statements included in the Registration Statement ineligible
         for inclusion therein or any statement made in the Registration
         Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be
         incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or
         that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus
         or other documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement
         or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue
         statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
         required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
         therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
         misleading.

                  (d)      Use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the
         issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order
         suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or (ii) any
         suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of
         any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the
         earliest practicable moment.

                  (e)      Furnish to each Holder, without charge, at least one
         conformed copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment
         thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents
         incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference to the
         extent requested by such Person, and all exhibits to the extent
         requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or
         incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents
         with the Commission.

                  (f)      Promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as
         many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of
         prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons
         may reasonably request in connection with resales by the Holder of
         Registrable Securities. The Company hereby consents to the use of such
         Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the
         selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the
         Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or
         supplement thereto, except after the giving on any notice pursuant to
         Section 3(c).

                  (g)      Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a
         Holder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify
         or cooperate with the selling

                                       5

<PAGE>

         Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or
         exemption from the Registration or qualification) of such Registrable
         Securities for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue
         Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder
         reasonably requests in writing, to keep the Registration or
         qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the
         Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things
         reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of
         the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement;
         provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally
         to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified,
         subject the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where
         it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of
         process in any such jurisdiction.

                  (h)      If requested by the Holders, cooperate with the
         Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
         certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a
         transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates
         shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement, of
         all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to
         be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such
         Holders may request.

                  (i)      Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by
         Section 3(c)(v), as promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a
         supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the
         Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any
         document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by
         reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter
         delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will
         contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
         material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
         statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
         made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Holders in accordance
         with clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 3(c) above to suspend the use
         of any Prospectus until the requisite changes to such Prospectus have
         been made, then the Holders shall suspend use of such Prospectus. The
         Company will use its best efforts to ensure that the use of the
         Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is practicable. The Company
         shall be entitled to exercise its right under this Section 3(i) to
         suspend the availability of a Registration Statement and Prospectus,
         subject to the payment of liquidated damages pursuant to Section 2(b),
         for a period not to exceed 60 days (which need not be consecutive days)
         in any 12 month period.

                  (j)      Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of
         the Commission.

                  (k)      The Company may require each selling Holder to
         furnish to the Company a certified statement as to the number of shares
         of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and, if required by
         the Commission, the person thereof that has voting and dispositive
         control over the Shares. During any periods that the Company is unable
         to meet its obligations hereunder with respect to the registration of
         the Registrable Securities solely because any Holder fails to furnish
         such information within three Trading Days of the Company's request,
         any liquidated damages that are accruing at such time as to such Holder
         only shall be tolled and any Event that may otherwise occur solely

                                       6

<PAGE>

         because of such delay shall be suspended as to such Holder only, until
         such information is delivered to the Company.

         4.       Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the
performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company shall be borne
by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to
the Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing
sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees
(including, without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings
required to be made with the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then
listed for trading, and (B) in compliance with applicable state securities or
Blue Sky laws), (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses
of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses
if the printing of prospectuses is reasonably requested by the holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement),
(iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company
so desires such insurance, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other Persons
retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall be responsible
for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation,
all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or
accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any
securities exchange as required hereunder. The Company shall not be responsible
for any Holder's brokerage commissions or other underwriting discount paid by
any Holder in connection with the sale of any Registrable Securities.

         5.       Indemnification

                  (a)      Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall,
         notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold
         harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, agents and employees of
         each of them, each Person who controls any such Holder (within the
         meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
         Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each
         such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
         law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
         costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) and
         expenses (collectively, "Losses"), as incurred, to the extent arising
         out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
         material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Prospectus
         or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or
         in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any
         omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated
         therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any
         Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the
         circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the
         extent, but only to the extent, that (1) such untrue statements or
         omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder
         furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use
         therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder
         or such Holder's proposed method of distribution of Registrable
         Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such
         Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus
         or such

                                       7

<PAGE>

         form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto (it being
         understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this
         purpose) or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type
         specified in Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an
         outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such
         Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and
         prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in
         Section 6(d). The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the
         institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company
         is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement.

                  (b)      Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall,
         severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its
         directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the
         Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and
         Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or
         employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted
         by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the
         extent arising out of or based upon: (x) such Holder's failure to
         comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act
         or (y) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
         contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of
         prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any
         preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission
         or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or
         necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (i) to the
         extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission
         is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder
         to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement
         or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that (1) such untrue
         statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding
         such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder
         expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information
         relates to such Holder or such Holder's proposed method of distribution
         of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in
         writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement
         (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for
         this purpose), such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any
         amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case of an occurrence of
         an event of the type specified in Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), the use by such
         Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has
         notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or
         defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice
         contemplated in Section 6(d). In no event shall the liability of any
         selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of
         the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the
         Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

                  (c)      Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any
         Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to
         indemnity hereunder (an "Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party
         shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the
         "Indemnifying Party") in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have
         the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of
         counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the
         payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense
         thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give
         such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations
         or liabilities

                                       8

<PAGE>

         pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it
         shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which
         determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such
         failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

                  An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
         counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense
         thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
         expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the
         Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses;
         (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the
         defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably
         satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3)
         the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded
         parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
         Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel
         that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were
         to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in
         which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party
         in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of
         the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right
         to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of
         one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying
         Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement
         of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which
         consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party
         shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party,
         effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any
         Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an
         unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on
         claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

                  All reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party
         (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in
         connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in
         a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the
         Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten Trading Days of written
         notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the
         Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for
         that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for
         which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
         hereunder, determined based upon the relative faults of the parties.

                  (d)      Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under
         Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason
         of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu
         of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount
         paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses,
         in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
         the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the
         actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well
         as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of
         such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by
         reference to, among other things, whether any action in question,
         including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
         omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made
         by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or
         Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access
         to information and

                                       9

<PAGE>

         opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission.
         The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall
         be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section
         5(c), any reasonable attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses
         incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent
         such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
         indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such
         party in accordance with its terms.

                  The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
         equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined
         by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does
         not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the
         immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
         Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the
         aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds
         actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable
         Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages
         that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such
         untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission,
         except in the case of fraud by such Holder. The indemnity and
         contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to
         any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified
         Parties.

         6.       Miscellaneous

                  (a)      Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or
         by a Holder, of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each
         Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being
         entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this
         Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
         performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each
         Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate
         compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any
         of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in
         the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such
         breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be
         adequate.

                  (b)      No Piggyback on Registrations. Except as set forth
         Schedule 6(b), neither the Company nor any of its security holders
         (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include
         securities of the Company in a Registration Statement other than the
         Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not after the date hereof
         enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of its
         security holders. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports and as set
         forth in this subsection, no Person has any right to cause the Company
         to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities
         of the Company. The Company shall not file any other registration
         statement until after the Effective Date.

                  (c)      Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it
         will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
         Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable
         Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

                                       10

<PAGE>

                  (d)      Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees by its
         acquisition of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a
         notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind
         described in Section 3(c), such Holder will forthwith discontinue
         disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration
         Statement until such Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented
         Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement or until it is advised
         in writing (the "Advice") by the Company that the use of the applicable
         Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of
         any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed
         to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration
         Statement. The Company will use its best efforts to ensure that the use
         of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as it practicable. The
         Company agrees and acknowledges that any periods during which the
         Holder is required to discontinue the disposition of the Registrable
         Securities hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section
         2(b).

                  (e)      Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time during the
         Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement
         covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall
         determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration
         statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of
         others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other
         than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities
         Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be
         issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or
         business or equity securities issuable in connection with the stock
         option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to
         each Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within
         fifteen days after the date of such notice, any such Holder shall so
         request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration
         statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Holder
         requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks
         applicable to all holders of registration rights.

                  (f)      Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this
         Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be
         amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to
         departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same
         shall be in writing and signed by the Company and each Holder of the
         then outstanding Registrable Securities.

                  (g)      Notices. Any and all notices or other communications
         or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be
         made in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

                  (h)      Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to
         the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns
         of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder.
         Each Holder may assign their respective rights hereunder in the manner
         and to the Persons as permitted under the Purchase Agreement.

                  (i)      Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be
         executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed
         shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together
         shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any
         signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall

                                       11

<PAGE>

         create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose
         behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and
         effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof.

                  (j)      Governing Law. All questions concerning the
         construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this
         Agreement shall be determined with the provisions of the Purchase
         Agreement.

                  (k)      Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided herein are
         cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

                  (l)      Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or
         restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent
         jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
         remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set
         forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way
         be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use
         their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative
         means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that
         contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is
         hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that
         they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and
         restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter
         declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

                  (m)      Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for
         convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect
         the meaning hereof.

                  (n)      Independent Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and
         Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser hereunder is several and not
         joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser hereunder, and no
         Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the
         obligations of any other Purchaser hereunder. Nothing contained herein
         or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no
         action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be
         deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a
         joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that
         the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert with respect to such
         obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each
         Purchaser shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights,
         including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement,
         and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as
         an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

                                     ANNEX A

                              Plan of Distribution

         The Selling Stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders") of the common
stock ("Common Stock") of SCOLR, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company")
and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time
to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange,
market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private
transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling
Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling
shares:

                  -        ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in
                           which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

                  -        block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt
                           to sell the shares as agent but may position and
                           resell a portion of the block as principal to
                           facilitate the transaction;

                  -        purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale
                           by the broker-dealer for its account;

                  -        an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules
                           of the applicable exchange;

                  -        privately negotiated transactions;

                  -        settlement of short sales;

                  -        broker-dealers may agree with the Selling
                           Stockholders to sell a specified number of such
                           shares at a stipulated price per share;

                  -        a combination of any such methods of sale;

                  -        through the writing or settlement of options or other
                           hedging transactions, whether through an options
                           exchange or otherwise; or

                  -        any other method permitted pursuant to applicable
                           law.

         The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), if available, rather
than under this prospectus.

         Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for
other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive
commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer
acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be
negotiated. Each Selling Stockholder does not expect these commissions and
discounts relating to its sales of shares to exceed what is customary in the
types of transactions involved.

                                       i

<PAGE>

         In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein,
the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers
or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the
common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling
Stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these
securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common
stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling
Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more
derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other
financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such
broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this
prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

         The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are
involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any
commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has
informed the Company that it does not have any agreement or understanding,
directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common Stock.

         The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by
the Company incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed
to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages
and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

         Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be "underwriters" within
the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act. In addition, any securities covered
by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus.
Each Selling Stockholder has advised us that they have not entered into any
agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriter or broker-dealer
regarding the sale of the resale shares. There is no underwriter or coordinating
broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the
Selling Stockholders.

         We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i)
the date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without
registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule
144(e) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all
of the shares have been sold pursuant to the prospectus or Rule 144 under the
Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be
sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under
applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale
shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in
the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification
requirement is available and is complied with.

         Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any
person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously
