follows:

"(b)  By the Company Without

In the event the Company terminates Employee’s employment without cause, the
Company will continue to pay Employee his current bi-weekly salary, less
applicable lawful deductions, for a period of twelve (12) months following the

conditions in Employee’s Employment Agreement, a copy of which is attached

                            TERREMARK WORLDWIDE, INC.
                      SERIES I CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

                           CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS

                        ---------------------------------

         It is hereby certified that:

         1. The name of the corporation (hereinafter called the "CORPORATION" or
the "COMPANY") is Terremark Worldwide, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

         2. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation authorizes the
issuance of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the
"PREFERRED STOCK") and expressly vests in the Board of Directors of the
Corporation the authority provided therein to issue any or all of said shares in
one or more series and by resolution or resolutions to establish the
designation, number, full or limited voting powers, or the denial of voting
powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, and other special
rights and the qualifications, limitations, restrictions, and other
distinguishing characteristics of each series to be issued.

         3. The Corporation has, as of the date hereof, authorized (i)
500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value par value $.001 per share (the
"COMMON STOCK"), of which 310,531,127 were issued and outstanding as of January
15, 2004; and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, of which 20 shares of
Series G Convertible Preferred Stock and 294 shares of Series H Convertible
Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding as of January 15, 2004.

         4. The Board of Directors of the Corporation, pursuant to the authority
expressly vested in it as aforesaid, has adopted the following resolutions
creating a Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (the
"SERIES I CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK"):

         RESOLVED, that 600 shares of the 10,000,000 authorized shares of
Preferred Stock of the Corporation shall be designated Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock, and shall possess the rights and privileges set forth below:

         1. DESIGNATION. A total of 600 shares of the Corporation's Preferred
Stock shall be designated as "SERIES I CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK." Such number
of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors;
provided, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series I
Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus
the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding
options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of any outstanding securities
issued by the Corporation convertible into Series I Convertible Preferred Stock.
As used herein, the term "PREFERRED STOCK" used without reference to the Series
I Convertible Preferred Stock means the shares of Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock and the shares of each series of authorized Preferred Stock of the
Corporation issued and designated from time to time by a resolution or
resolutions of the Board of Directors, share for share alike and without
distinction as to class or series, except as otherwise expressly provided for in

                                       1
<PAGE>

this Certificate of Designations or as the context otherwise requires. The
Series I Convertible Preferred Stock shall rank: (i) prior to all of the
Corporation's Common Stock as to distributions of assets upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary
(all such distributions being referred to collectively as "DISTRIBUTIONS"); (ii)
prior to the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the "SERIES G CONVERTIBLE
PREFERRED STOCK") as to Distributions, (iii) prior to any class or series of
capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created that does not specifically by
its terms rank senior to or on parity with the Series I Preferred Stock of
whatever subdivision (collectively, with the Common Stock and the Series G
Convertible Preferred Stock, the "JUNIOR SECURITIES") as to Distributions; and
(iv) junior to the Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the "THE SERIES H
CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK") and any Preferred Stock subsequently created
specifically ranking senior to the Series I Preferred Stock ("SENIOR
SECURITIES") as to Distributions.

         2. DIVIDENDS. (a) Commencing on the date of issuance, the holders of
record of shares of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled
to receive cumulative preferential dividends out of assets which are legally
available for the payment of such dividends, payable, quarterly in arrears, on a
cumulative basis, at an annual rate equal to (a) until January 31, 2007,
$2,000.00 per share of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, (b) on or after
January 31, 2007 but before January 31, 2009, $2,500.00 per share of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock and (c) thereafter, $3,000.00 per share of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock (which amounts shall be subject to equitable
adjustment whenever there shall occur after the date of issuance a stock
dividend, stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization,
reclassification or other similar event involving the Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock). Dividends shall be payable quarterly on March 31, June 30,
September 30 and December 31 of each year (each a "DIVIDEND PAYMENT DATE"),
commencing on whichever Dividend Payment Date immediately follows the date of
issuance; provided, however, that if any such day is a non-business day, the
Dividend Payment Date will be the next business day. Each declared dividend
shall be payable to holders of record as they appear at the close of business on
the stock books of the Corporation on March 15, June 15, September 15 and
December 15 of each year (each of such dates a "RECORD DATE"). Quarterly
dividend periods (each a "DIVIDEND PERIOD") shall commence on and include the
1st day of January, April, July and October of each year and shall end on and
include the day next preceding the next following Dividend Payment Date. No
dividends shall be paid or declared, and no other distribution shall be made, on
or with respect to the Junior Securities of the Corporation unless all accrued
and unpaid dividends on the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock have first been
paid. In the event dividends are paid on any share of Common Stock, an
additional dividend shall be paid with respect to all outstanding shares of
Series I Convertible Preferred Stock in an amount for each share of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock equal to or greater than the aggregate amount of
such dividends for all shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock could then be converted.

                  (b) ACCRUAL OF DIVIDENDS. Dividends shall be cumulative,
without compounding, and shall accrue daily on each outstanding share of Series
I Convertible Preferred Stock from the date of issue thereof. Dividends payable
on the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock for any period less than a full year
shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a
365-day year. Dividends on the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock shall accrue
whether or not the Corporation has earnings or profits, whether or not there are
funds legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not

                                       2
<PAGE>

dividends are declared. The Corporation shall take all actions required or
permitted under Delaware law to permit the payment of dividends on the Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock. Upon the conversion of the Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock into Common Stock of the Corporation, all cumulative dividends
with respect to such converted shares shall be cancelled. In no event shall
accrued but unpaid dividends accrue interest.

                  (c) PAYMENT OF DIVIDENDS. At the election of the Corporation,
in its sole discretion, the dividends to be paid under this Section may be paid
in cash or in the form of shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common
Stock issuable per share of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock upon such an
election by the Corporation shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing
(i) the amount of dividends declared per share of Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock, BY (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock multiplied by (A) ninety
percent (90%) if the Market Price is equal to or less than $2.00 per share, (B)
ninety-three percent (93%) if the Market Price is greater than $2.00 per share
but less than $5.00 per share, or (C) ninety-five percent (95%) if the Market
Price is greater than $5.00 per share. For the purpose of this Section, "MARKET
PRICE" shall mean the weighted average of the daily closing sales prices of the
Common Stock as quoted on the American Stock Exchange and reported in the WALL
STREET JOURNAL for the twenty trading days ending on (and inclusive of) the
business day immediately preceding the Dividend Payment Date. If the Company's
Common Stock is no longer trading on the American Stock Exchange at the time
such dividend is determined, the Market Price shall be determined by reference
to the principal national securities exchange on which the shares of Common
Stock are listed or admitted for trading and, if the shares of Common Stock are
not listed or admitted for trading on a national securities exchange, by
reference to the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board
maintained by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or the
over-the-counter market as, as reported by The National Quotation Bureau, Inc.,
or an equivalent generally accepted reporting service, whichever is the most
appropriate. If the price of the Company's Common Stock is not quoted by any of
these organizations then the Market Price shall be the fair market value of the
shares of Common Stock on such day or days, as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors of the Company. If daily closing sales prices are not
available, then Market Price shall be determined by the weighted average of the
daily bid and asked prices quoted by such organizations for such twenty trading
days. No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issued upon the payment in kind of the dividends pursuant to
this Section. Instead of any fractional shares of Common Stock which would
otherwise be issuable pursuant hereto, the Corporation shall round up to the
next whole share of Common Stock issuable upon payment of the dividend. The
determination as to whether any fractional shares of Common Stock shall be
rounded up shall be made with respect to the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock being issued, not with respect to each share of Common Stock being
issued.

         3. CONVERSION RIGHTS. The holders of the Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock shall have the following rights with respect to the conversion of such
shares into shares of Common Stock:

                  (a) GENERAL. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions
of this Section 3, any or all shares of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
may, at the option of the holder thereof, be converted at any time into
fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of
Common Stock which a holder of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to receive upon conversion shall be equal to the product obtained by

                                       3
<PAGE>

multiplying the Series I Applicable Conversion Rate (determined as provided in
Section 3(b)) by the number of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
being converted at any time.

                  (b) APPLICABLE CONVERSION RATE. The conversion rate in effect
at any time for the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (the "SERIES I
APPLICABLE CONVERSION RATE") shall be the quotient obtained by dividing $25,000
plus any accrued and unpaid dividends by the Series I Applicable Conversion
Value. The "SERIES I APPLICABLE CONVERSION VALUE" in effect from time to time,
except as adjusted in accordance with Section 3(c) hereof, shall be $0.75.

                  (c) ADJUSTMENT TO SERIES I APPLICABLE CONVERSION VALUE UPON
EXTRAORDINARY COMMON STOCK EVENT. Upon the happening of an Extraordinary Common
Stock Event (as hereinafter defined), the Series I Applicable Conversion Value
shall, simultaneously with the happening of such Extraordinary Common Stock
Event, be adjusted by multiplying the Series I Applicable Conversion Value by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such Extraordinary Common Stock Event and the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such Extraordinary Common Stock Event, and the product so
obtained shall thereafter be the Series I Applicable Conversion Value. The
Series I Applicable Conversion Value, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the
same manner upon the happening of any successive Extraordinary Common Stock
Event or Events. An "EXTRAORDINARY COMMON STOCK EVENT" shall mean (i) the issue
of additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on
outstanding shares of Common Stock, (ii) a subdivision of outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, or (iii) a
combination or reverse stock split of outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares of Common Stock.

                  (d) MANDATORY CONVERSION DUE TO PRICE OF COMMON STOCK.

                           (i) MANDATORY CONVERSION OF SERIES I CONVERTIBLE
PREFERRED STOCK. At any time the Market Price determined as set forth in Section
2(c) above is equal to or exceeds $2.00 for ANY twenty (20) consecutive trading
days, the Company may, at its option, require the conversion of all, or a
portion of, the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock into the number of shares
of Common Stock into which such shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
are then convertible pursuant to Section 3 hereof on the close of business on
the date of notice by the Company thereof (the "MANDATORY CONVERSION DATE"),
without any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the
certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Corporation or its
transfer agent. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the
Mandatory Conversion Date.

                           (ii) SURRENDER OF CERTIFICATES UPON MANDATORY
CONVERSION. Upon the occurrence of the conversion events specified in the
preceding paragraph (i), the holders of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
shall, upon notice from the Corporation, surrender the certificates representing
such shares at the office of the Corporation or of its transfer agent for the
Common Stock. Thereupon, there shall be issued and delivered to such holder a
certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which
the shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock so surrendered were
convertible on the date

                                       4
<PAGE>

on which such conversion occurred. The Corporation shall not be obligated to
issue such certificates unless certificates evidencing the shares of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock being converted are either delivered to the
Corporation or any such transfer agent, or the holder notifies the Corporation
that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an
agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any
loss incurred by it in connection therewith.

                  (e) CAPITAL REORGANIZATION OR RECLASSIFICATION. If the Common
Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or
classes of capital stock, whether by capital reorganization, recapitalization,
reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares
or stock dividend provided for elsewhere in this Section 3, or a merger,
consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation's capital
stock or assets to any other person), then and in each such event the holder of
each share of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right
thereafter to convert such share into the kind and amount of shares of capital
stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization,
recapitalization, reclassification or other change by the holders of the number
of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately prior to such
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or change, all subject to
further adjustment as provided herein.

                  (f) MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS. Subject to the
provisions of Section 4(d) hereof, if at any time or from time to time there
shall be a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another
corporation (other than a merger or reorganization involving only a change in
the state of incorporation of the Corporation), or the sale of all or
substantially all of the Corporation's capital stock or assets to any other
person, then, as a part of such reorganization, merger, or consolidation or
sale, and provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon
conversion of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock the number of shares of
stock or other securities or property of the Corporation, or of the successor
corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation, to which such holder
would have been entitled if such holder had converted its shares of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such capital reorganization,
merger, consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be
made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3 to the end that the
provisions of this Section 3 (including adjustment of the Series I Applicable
Conversion Value then in effect and the number of shares of Common Stock or
other securities issuable upon conversion of such shares of Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event in as nearly equivalent a
manner as may be practicable.

                  (g) CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS; NOTICE BY CORPORATION. In
each case of an adjustment or readjustment of the Series I Applicable Conversion
Rate, the Corporation at its expense will furnish each holder of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock with a certificate prepared by the Treasurer or
Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation, showing such adjustment or
readjustment, and stating in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based.

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  (h) EXERCISE OF CONVERSION PRIVILEGE. To exercise its
conversion privilege, a holder of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock shall
surrender the certificate or certificates representing the shares being
converted to the Corporation at its principal office, and shall give written
notice to the Corporation at that office that such holder elects to convert such
shares. Such notice shall also state the name or names (with address or
addresses) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such conversion shall be issued. The certificate or certificates
for shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion
shall be accompanied by proper assignment thereof to the Corporation or in
blank. The date when such written notice is received by the Corporation,
together with the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series
I Convertible Preferred Stock being converted, shall be the "CONVERSION DATE."
As promptly as practicable after the Conversion Date, the Corporation shall
issue and shall deliver to the holder of the shares of Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock being converted, or on its written order, such certificate or
certificates as it may request for the number of whole shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion of such shares of Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3, rounded up to the
nearest whole share as provided in Section 3(i), in respect of any fraction of a
share of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. Such conversion shall be
deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the
Conversion Date, and at such time the rights of the holder as holder of the
converted shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock shall cease and the
person(s) in whose name(s) any certificate(s) for shares of Common Stock shall
be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or
holders of record of the shares of Common Stock represented thereby.

                  (i) NO ISSUANCE OF FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of
Common Stock or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the
conversion of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock. Instead of any
fractional shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon
conversion of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall round
up to the next whole share of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of
shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock. The determination as to whether
any fractional shares of Common Stock shall be rounded up shall be made with
respect to the aggregate number of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock being converted at any one time by any holder thereof, not with respect to
each share of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock being converted.

                  (j) PARTIAL CONVERSION. In the event some but not all of the
shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock represented by a certificate(s)
surrendered by a holder are converted, the Corporation shall execute and deliver
to or on the order of the holder, at the expense of the Corporation, a new
certificate representing the number of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock which were not converted.

                  (k) RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK. The Corporation shall at all
times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares
of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common
Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all
outstanding shares of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (including any

                                       6
<PAGE>

shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock represented by any warrants,
options, subscription or purchase rights for Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock), and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then
outstanding shares of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (including any
shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock represented by any warrants,
options, subscriptions or purchase rights for such Preferred Stock), the
Corporation shall take such action as may be necessary to increase its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall
be sufficient for such purpose.

                  (l) NO REISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK. No share or shares of
Series I Convertible Preferred Stock acquired by the Corporation by reason of
redemption, purchase, conversion or otherwise shall be reissued, and all such
shares shall be cancelled, retired and eliminated from the shares which the
Corporation shall be authorized to issue. Under such circumstances, the
Corporation shall from time to time take such appropriate corporate action as
may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of the Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock.

         4. LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP.

                  (a) TREATMENT AT SALE, LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP.
In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,
whether voluntary or involuntary, before any distribution or payment is made to
any holders of any Junior Securities and subject to the liquidation rights and
preferences of any Senior Securities, then the holders of shares of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid first out of the assets
of the Corporation available for distribution to holders of the Corporation's
capital stock whether such assets are capital, surplus or earnings, an amount
equal to $25,000 per share of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (which amount
shall be subject to equitable adjustment whenever there shall occur a stock
dividend, stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization,
reclassification or other similar event involving the Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock) PLUS any dividends accrued or declared but unpaid on such
shares (such amount, as so determined, is referred to herein as the "SERIES I
LIQUIDATION Value" with respect to such shares).

                  (b) PRO-RATA PARTICIPATION. After payment has been made to the
holders of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock and any series of Preferred
Stock designated to be on a parity with respect to payment on liquidation with
the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock of the full liquidation preference to
which such holders shall be entitled as aforesaid, the remaining assets shall be
distributed pro-rata among the holders of Junior Securities in accordance with
their respective liquidation preferences.

                  (c) INSUFFICIENT FUNDS. If upon such liquidation, dissolution
or winding up, the assets or surplus funds of the Corporation to be distributed
to the holders of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock and any other
then-outstanding shares of the Corporation's capital stock ranking on a parity
with respect to payment on liquidation with the Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock (such shares being referred to herein as the "SERIES I PARITY STOCK")
shall be insufficient to permit payment to such respective holders of the full
Series I Liquidation Value and all other preferential amounts payable with
respect to the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock and such Series I Parity

                                       7
<PAGE>

Stock, then the assets available for payment or distribution to such holders
shall be allocated among the holders of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
and such Series I Parity Stock, pro rata, in proportion to the full respective
preferential amounts to which the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock and such
Series I Parity Stock are each entitled.

                  (d) CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS TREATED AS LIQUIDATION. For purposes
of this Section 4, (i) any acquisition of the Corporation by means of merger or
other form of corporate reorganization or consolidation with or into another
corporation in which outstanding shares of the Corporation, including shares of
Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, are to be exchanged for securities or
other consideration issued, or caused to be issued, by the other corporation or
its subsidiary and, as a result of which transaction, the shareholders of the
Corporation own less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity, or
(ii) a sale, transfer or lease (other than a pledge or grant of a security
interest to a bona fide lender) of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Corporation (other than to a wholly owned subsidiary or parent of the
Corporation) (collectively, the transactions referred to in clauses (i) and (ii)
are referred to herein as "SALE TRANSACTIONS"), at the election of any holder of
outstanding shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, shall with respect
to the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holder, be treated as a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and entitle such
holder of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock to receive the Series I
Liquidation Value for each share of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock held by
such holder, subject to the liquidation rights and preferences of any Senior
Securities. The Corporation will provide the holders of Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock written notice of any Sale Transaction that would be treated as
a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to this Section 4(d) at least
fifteen (15) business days prior to the earlier of the stockholders' vote
relating to such Sale Transaction or the closing of such Sale Transaction, and
such holders shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such notice to make
the election provided for in this Section 4(d).

                  (e) DISTRIBUTIONS OF PROPERTY. Whenever the distribution
provided for in this Section 4 shall be payable in property other than cash, the
value of such distribution shall be the fair market value of such property as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, unless the holders of 25% or
more of the then outstanding shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock

         5. REDEMPTIONS.

                  (a) REDEMPTION BY THE CORPORATION. At any time after December

to Section 5(d) below, redeem, on the date (the "COMPANY REDEMPTION DATE")
specified in such notice, any or all of the outstanding shares of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock which have not been converted into shares of Common
Stock within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice by holders of the Series
I Convertible Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to the Redemption
Price. The "REDEMPTION PRICE" for each share of Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall initially be $25,000 per
share (the "ISSUE PRICE") in cash PLUS all accrued and/or declared but unpaid
dividends on such shares up to and including the date fixed for redemption. The

adjustment with respect to the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock whenever
there shall occur a stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization,
reclassification or other similar event involving a change in the Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock.

                  (b) REDEMPTION PROPORTIONATE. Each redemption of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5 shall be made so that the
number of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock to be redeemed from
each registered owner shall be on a pro rata basis according to the respective
liquidation preferences of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock which
each such holder of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock owns of record as of
the applicable Redemption Date.

                  (c) REDEMPTION NOTICE. At least 35 days prior to the Company
Redemption Date, written notice (hereinafter referred to as the "REDEMPTION
NOTICE") shall be mailed, first class or certified mail, postage prepaid, by the
Corporation to each holder of record of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
which are to be redeemed, as its address shown on the records of the
Corporation. The Redemption Notice shall contain the following information:

                           (i) the number of shares of Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock held by the holder which are to be redeemed by the Corporation;

                           (ii) the Company Redemption Date and the Redemption
Price; and

                           (iii) that the holder is to surrender to the
Corporation, at the place designated therein, its certificate or certificates
representing the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock to be redeemed.

                  (d) SURRENDER OF CERTIFICATES. Each holder of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificate(s) representing such
shares to the Corporation at the place designated in the Redemption Notice, and
on the Company Redemption Date. The Redemption Price for such shares as set
forth in this Section 5 shall be paid to the order of the person whose name
appears on such certificate(s) and each surrendered certificate shall be
canceled and retired. In the event some but not all of the Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock represented by a certificate(s) surrendered by a holder are
being redeemed, the Corporation shall execute and deliver to or on the order of
the holder, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate representing
the number of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock which were not
redeemed.

                           The rights of redemption of the holders of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock are subject to the rights and preferences of any
class or series of preferred stock that may be designated to be senior to, or on
parity with, the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock with respect to rights of
redemption.

                  (e) DIVIDENDS AFTER REDEMPTION. From and after the Company
Redemption Date, as the case may be, dividends shall cease to accrue on the
shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock subject to redemption and no such
shares shall be entitled to the conversion provisions set forth in Section 3
hereof; PROVIDED; HOWEVER, that if any shares of Series I Convertible Preferred

                                       9
<PAGE>

Stock called for redemption shall not be paid upon surrender of the relevant
stock certificate for redemption, then dividends shall accrue on such shares
from the Company Redemption Date, as the case may be, until the Redemption Price
therefor is paid.

         6. VOTING POWER. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 9
hereof or as otherwise required by law, each holder of Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters and shall be entitled
to that number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into
which such holder's respective shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
could then be converted, pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 hereof, at the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote on such
matter or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken
or any written consent of stockholders is solicited. Except as otherwise
expressly provided in Section 9 hereof or as otherwise required by law, the
holders of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock shall
vote together as a single class on all matters.

         7. REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER. The Corporation will keep at its principal
office a register for the registration of shares of Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock. Upon the surrender of any certificate representing shares of
Series I Convertible Preferred Stock at such place, the Corporation will, at the
request of the record holders of such certificate, execute and deliver (at the
Corporation's expense) a new certificate or certificates in exchange therefor
representing the aggregate number of shares of Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock represented by the surrendered certificate. Each such new certificate will
be registered in such name and will represent such number of shares of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock as is required by the holder of the surrendered
certificate and will be substantially identical in form to the surrendered
certificate.

         8. REPLACEMENT. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Corporation of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
any certificate evidencing shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, and
in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an unsecured
indemnity from the holder reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation or, in the
case of such mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Corporation will
(at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new
certificate of like kind representing the number of shares of Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated certificate.

         9. RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS ON CORPORATE ACTION AND AMENDMENTS TO
CHARTER. The Corporation shall not take any corporate action without the
approval by vote or written consent of the holders of more than 50.0% of the
then outstanding shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, if such
corporate action or amendment would:

                           (i) alter or change the powers, preferences or
special rights of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock; or

                           (ii) amend any provisions of this Section 9.

                                       10

         10. NO IMPAIRMENT. The Corporation will not, by amendment of its
Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of capital
stock or assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities
or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock set
forth herein, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of
all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holders of the Series I
Convertible Preferred Stock against impairment. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Corporation (a) will not increase the par value of any
shares of stock receivable on the conversion of the Series I Convertible
Preferred Stock above the amount payable therefor on such conversion, and (b)
will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the
Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
stock on the conversion of all Series I Convertible Preferred Stock from time to
time outstanding.

         11. NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of:

                  (a) any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders
of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof
who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of any
class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

                  (b) any capital reorganization of the Corporation, any

securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or other
securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such
reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Such notice shall be mailed by
first class mail, postage prepaid, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the
