Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (or any successor provision) shall not
be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration unless such holder
fails to perfect or otherwise loses such holder's right to such appraisal, if
any. If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect or loses any
such right to appraisal, each such Share of such holder shall be treated as a
Share that had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive
the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 4.1(c). At the Effective
Time, any holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with
respect thereto, except the rights provided in Section 262 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (or any successor provision) and as
provided in the immediately preceding sentence. The Company shall give prompt
notice to Parent of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Shares,
and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations
and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, except with
the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or offer
to settle, any such demands.

                                                                  ------------
shall be cancelled by the Company and in consideration of such cancellation and
except to the extent that Parent and the holder of any such Stock Option
otherwise agree, the Company shall pay to such holders of Stock Options an
amount in respect thereof equal to the product of (A) the excess, if any, of (i)
the Merger Consideration over (ii) the exercise price per Share subject to such
Stock Option and (B) the number of Shares subject to such Stock Option
immediately prior to its cancellation. Such payment shall be less any required
withholding taxes and without interest.

     (b)     The Company shall ensure that following the date hereof (i) no
further issuance, transfer or grant of any capital stock of the Company or any
interest in respect of any capital stock of the Company shall be made under the
Company Stock Incentive Plan and (ii) no holder of a Stock Option or any
participant in any employee incentive or benefit plans or programs or
arrangements or non-employee director plans maintained by the Company shall have
any right thereunder to acquire any capital stock of the Company, Parent or the
Surviving Corporation.

     (c)     Prior to the consummation of the Offer, the Company shall, if
necessary, amend the terms of the Company Stock Incentive Plan to give effect to
the provisions of this Section 4.2.

      Section  4.3.  Payment  for  Shares.
                     --------------------

     (a)     Payment Fund.  As soon as practicable after the Effective Time,

                                       12
<PAGE>
benefit of the holders of Shares, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the
aggregate Merger Consideration payable upon the conversion of Shares pursuant to
Section 4.1(c) (the "Payment Fund").
                     ------------

     (b)     Letters of Transmittal; Surrender of Certificates.    As soon as
             -------------------------------------------------
reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall instruct the
Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record (other than the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or Parent, Purchaser or any other subsidiary of Parent) of a
certificate or certificates that, immediately prior to the Effective Time,
evidenced outstanding Shares (the "Certificates"), (x) a form of letter of
                                   ------------
transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of
loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the
Certificates to the Paying Agent, and shall be in such form and have such other
provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (y) instructions for use in
effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger
Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying
Agent together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other
customary documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder
of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor cash in an
amount equal to the product of (A) the number of Shares formerly represented by
such Certificate and (B) the Merger Consideration, and the Certificate so
surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. No interest shall be paid or accrued on
any cash payable upon the surrender of any Certificate. If payment is to be made
to a person other than the person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is
registered, it shall be a condition of payment that the Certificate so
surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer
and that the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other
taxes required by reason of the payment to a person other than the registered
holder of the surrendered Certificate or established to the satisfaction of
Parent and the Surviving Corporation that such taxes have been paid or are not
applicable.

     (ii)     In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming
such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent will issue in
exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration
deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article IV,
provided that the person to whom the Merger Consideration is paid shall, as a
--------
condition precedent to the payment thereof, give the Surviving Corporation a
bond in such sum as it may direct or otherwise indemnify the Surviving
Corporation in a manner satisfactory to it against any claim that may be made
against the Surviving Corporation with respect to the Certificate claimed to
have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

     (c)     Cancellation of Shares; No Further Rights. As of the Effective
             -----------------------------------------
Time, all Shares (other than Shares to be canceled in accordance with Section
4.1(b) and Dissenting Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled
and shall cease to exist, and each holder of any such Shares shall cease to have
any rights with respect thereto or arising therefrom (including without
limitation the right to vote), except the right to receive the Merger
Consideration, without interest, upon surrender of such Certificate in
accordance with Section 4.3(b), and until so surrendered, each such Certificate
shall represent for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger
Consideration (without interest). The Merger Consideration paid upon the
surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms of this
Section 4.3 shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights
pertaining to the Shares formerly represented by such Certificates.

     (d)     Investment of Payment Fund.  The Paying Agent shall invest the
             --------------------------
Payment Fund, as directed by Parent, in (i) direct obligations of the United
States of America, (ii) obligations for which the full faith and credit of the
United States of America is pledged to provide for the payment of principal and
interest, (iii) commercial paper rated the highest quality by either Moody's
Investors Services, Inc. or Standard & Poor's Corporation, or (iv) certificates
of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or bankers' acceptances of commercial
banks with capital exceeding $500 million. Any net earnings with respect to the
Payment Fund shall be the property of and paid over to Parent as and when
requested by Parent.

     (e)     Termination of Payment Fund.  Any portion of the Payment Fund which
             ---------------------------
remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates for 180 days after the
Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any holders of
Certificates that have not theretofore complied with this Section 4.3 shall
thereafter look only to Parent, and only as general creditors thereof, for
payment of their claim for any Merger Consideration.

     (f)     No Liability.  None of Parent, Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation
             ------------
or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any payments or
distributions payable from the Payment Fund delivered to a public official
pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. Subject
to applicable law and public policy, if any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered immediately prior to such date on which any Merger Consideration in
respect of such Certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of
any Governmental Entity (as defined in Section 5.4(c)), any amounts payable in
respect of such Certificate shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law and
public policy, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear
of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

     (g)     Withholding Rights.  Parent and Purchaser shall be entitled to
             ------------------
deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from the consideration
otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares, Stock
Options or Certificates such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld
with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"), or any provision of applicable state, local or
                       ----
foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such
deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement as having been paid to such holders in respect of which such deduction
and withholding was made.

information with respect to any Company Party to any Person, other than a

or (c) enter into an agreement with any Person, other than Parent and Purchaser,
providing for a possible Acquisition Proposal.  If any Company Party receives
any inquiry, offer or proposal relating to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company
shall, and shall cause such Company Party to, immediately notify Parent thereof,
including information as to the identity of the party making any such inquiry,
offer or proposal and the specific terms of such inquiry, offer or proposal, as

7.8(a), prior to the acceptance for payment of Shares by Purchaser pursuant to
------
the Offer, the Company may, to the extent a majority of the entire Board of

duties require it to do so, participate in discussions or negotiations with,
and, subject to the requirements of Section 7.8(c), furnish non-public
information, and afford access to the

                                       34
<PAGE>
properties, books or records of the Company Parties to any Person after such
Person has delivered to the Company in writing, an unsolicited bona fide
Acquisition Proposal with respect to any Company Party (which has not been
withdrawn) which a majority of the entire Board of Directors of the Company in
its good faith judgment determines, after reasonable inquiry and due diligence
(which shall include the review of such Person's financial statements) and
consultation with an investment banking firm, (A) would be reasonably likely to
result in a transaction more favorable than that contemplated by this Agreement
to the stockholders of the Company from a financial point of view (which
judgment must be reasonable), and (B) that the Person making such Acquisition
Proposal is financially capable of consummating such Acquisition Proposal or
that the financing necessary to consummate such Acquisition Proposal, to the
extent required, is then committed or is reasonably capable of being obtained by
such Person (a "Superior Proposal").
                -----------------

          (ii)     In the event the Company receives a Superior Proposal prior
to the acceptance for payment of Shares by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer,
nothing contained in this Agreement (but subject to the terms of this Section
7.8(b)) will prevent the Board of Directors of the Company from recommending
such Superior Proposal to the stockholders of the Company, if the Board
determines, in good faith, after consultation with and based upon the advice of
outside legal counsel, that such action is required by its fiduciary duties; in
such case, the Board of Directors of the Company may withdraw, modify or refrain
from making its recommendations set forth in Sections 2.3, 7.9 and 7.10 and
other relevant sections in this Agreement, and, to the extent it does so, the
Company may refrain from soliciting proxies to secure the affirmative vote of
Its stockholders as contemplated by Section 7.10; provided, however, that the
                                                  --------  -------
Company shall (A) provide Parent at least five business days prior notice of any
meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company at which such Board of
Directors is reasonably expected to consider a Superior Proposal, (B) not
recommend to its stockholders a Superior Proposal for a period of not less than
the greater of five full business days and 120 hours after Parent's receipt of a
copy of such Superior Proposal and the identity of the third party, and (C) not
enter into a definitive agreement relating to such Superior Proposal unless
Parent fails to match the terms of the Superior Proposal within the greater of
five full business days and 120 hours after Parent's receipt of a copy of such
Superior Proposal and the identity of the third party; and provided, further,
that unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article X, nothing
contained in this Section 7.8(b) shall limit the Company's obligation to hold
and convene a special meeting of its stockholders (regardless of whether the
recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company shall have been
withdrawn, modified or not yet made) or to provide the stockholders of the
Company with material information relating to such meeting.  The Company shall
keep Parent informed on a reasonably current basis of the status and content of
any discussions regarding any Acquisition Proposal with a third party.

     (c)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall
not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, provide any non-public information
to a third party unless: (x) the Company or such Subsidiary provides, such
non-public information pursuant to a nondisclosure agreement with terms
regarding the protection of oral or written confidential information at least as
restrictive as such terms in the confidentiality agreement heretofore entered
into by the parties hereto; and (y) such non-public information has been
previously delivered or made available to Parent.

respects with all applicable requirements of law and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder. Whenever any event occurs which is required to be set
forth in an amendment or supplement to the proxy or information statement, as

                             CONDITIONS TO THE OFFER

     Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set
forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Agreement") of which this
Exhibit A is a part. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer and
subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser shall not be required to
accept for payment or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the
SEC, including Rule 14e-l(c) under the Exchange Act (relating to Purchaser's
obligation to pay for or return tendered Shares promptly after termination or
withdrawal of the Offer), pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of
or, subject to the restriction referred to above, the payment for, any tendered
Shares, and may amend the Offer or terminate the Offer, in each case, consistent
with the terms of the Agreement and not accept for payment any tendered Shares,
if (i) there shall not have been validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the
expiration of the Offer such number of Shares which would constitute at least a
majority of the Shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis on the date of
purchase ("on a fully-diluted basis" meaning the number of Shares outstanding,
together with the Shares which the Company may be required to issue pursuant to
warrants, options or obligations outstanding at that date under employee stock
or similar benefit plans or otherwise whether or not vested or then exercisable)
(the "Minimum Condition"), (ii) any necessary material approval, permit,
authorization or consent of any governmental, administrative or regulatory
agency shall not have been obtained, (iii) the Agreement shall have been
terminated in accordance with its terms, or (iv) at any time on or after the
date of the Agreement and prior to the expiration date of the Offer, any of the
following events shall occur and be continuing and shall not have resulted from
the breach by Parent or Purchaser of any of their obligations under the
Agreement:

          (a)     there shall be any action or proceeding brought or threatened
by any Governmental Entity or any person, or any statute, rule, regulation,
judgment, order or injunction enacted, entered, enforced, promulgated or deemed
applicable to the Offer or the Merger, seeking to (i) impose any material
limitations on Parent's or Purchaser's ownership or operation (or that of any of
their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) of all or a material portion of
their or the Company's businesses or assets or compel Parent or Purchaser to
dispose of or hold separate all or any portion of the business or assets of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parent or any of its subsidiaries, (ii)
prohibit the making or consummation of the Offer or the Merger, (iii) impose
material limitations on the ability of Purchaser, or render Purchaser unable, to
accept for payment, pay for or purchase some or all of the Shares pursuant to
the Offer and the Merger, or effectively to exercise full rights of ownership of
the Shares, including, without limitation, the right to vote the Shares
purchased by Purchaser or Parent on all matters properly presented to the
Company's stockholders or (iv) require the divestiture by Parent or Purchaser of
any Shares; or

          (b)     (i) any representation or warranty of the Company contained in
the Agreement that is qualified as to materiality shall not be true and correct;
or (ii) any representation or warranty of the Company in the Agreement that is
not so qualified shall not be true and correct in all material respects, in each
case as of the date of consummation of the Offer as though made on or as of such
date (other than representations and warranties that by their terms address
matters only as of another specified date, which shall be true and correct only
as of such other specified date); or

<PAGE>
          (c)     the Company shall have breached or failed in any material
respect to perform any obligation or to comply with any agreement or covenant of
the Company to be performed by or complied with by it under the Agreement; or

          (d)     there shall have occurred an event, change, occurrence, or
development of a state of facts or circumstances having, or which would
reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect on the Company; or

          (e)     there shall have occurred (i) any suspension or limitation
of trading in securities generally on the NYSE (which suspension or limitation
shall continue for at least three hours) or any setting of minimum prices for
trading on such exchange, (ii) any banking moratorium declared by the U.S.
federal or New York authorities or any suspension of payments in respect of
banks in the United States, (iii) any material limitation (whether or not
mandatory) by any Governmental Entity on the extension of credit by commercial
banks or other commercial lending institutions, (iv) a commencement of a war or
armed hostilities or other national or international calamity directly or
indirectly involving the United States or (v) in the case of any of the
foregoing existing on the date hereof, a material acceleration or worsening
thereof;

which, in the reasonable judgment of Parent or Purchaser, in any such case
set forth in clauses (a) - (e), and regardless of the circumstances (including
any action or inaction by Parent or Purchaser) giving rise to such condition
makes it inadvisable to proceed with the Offer and/or with such acceptance for
payment or, of payment for, Shares.

     Subject to the terms of the Agreement, the foregoing conditions are for the
sole benefit of Parent and Purchaser and may be waived by Parent or Purchaser,
in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, in the sole discretion
of Parent or Purchaser. The failure by Parent or Purchaser at any time to
exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any right
and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at
any time and from time to time.

          2.  Loans.
              -----

          (a)     So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prior to the Termination Date
request from Lender one or more Loans in an amount up to but not exceeding in
the aggregate at any one time outstanding the sum of $3,500,000 (including
amounts borrowed under the Old Note).

          (b)     Under the Old Note, loans in an aggregate amount of $400,000
have been made and such loans plus accrued and unpaid interest therein shall be
deemed to be outstanding Loans under this Note.  A Loan of $1,157,945.23 shall
be made when the Borrowers execute and deliver this Note, the Security Agreement
and the other collateral documents required to be delivered under the Security
Agreement and the Borrowers shall use the proceeds of such Loan to pay in full
the outstanding loans and other obligations under the Convertible Promissory
Note dated as of June 25, 2002 executed by Borrowers in favor of Hand Held
Products, Inc.  After the date hereof, Borrowers shall give Lender prior written
or oral notice of each subsequent Loan requested hereunder, specifying the
amount and date of each Loan.  Borrowers may not request more than one Loan in
any calendar week and each such request may not exceed $200,000 (or any higher
amount to the extent that Lender consents, in its sole discretion, to such
amount).  Each request for a Loan shall be accompanied by a written cash flow
projection setting forth the current cash position of Borrowers (which for these
purposes shall include the amount of any cash prepayment made by Federated
Department Stores less an amount needed by Borrowers to purchase parts inventory
specifically for the Federated contract) and the current cash needs of Borrowers
for the following week (showing the amount of anticipated expenditures by
general category) in order to allow Borrowers to operate in the ordinary course
of business.  If the weekly cash flow statement shows a projected cash flow
deficit, Lender will, prior to the Termination Date, make a Loan to Borrowers in
the amount of the deficit up to a maximum of $200,000 per week (or any higher
amount to the extent that Lender consents, in its sole discretion, to such
amount).  The proceeds of the Loan shall be made available to Borrowers to such
account or accounts as Borrowers may designate.

                                        2
<PAGE>
          (c)     Upon the making of Loans and the receipt of any payments on
Loans made hereunder, Lender is authorized to endorse the attached Schedule A
with an appropriate notation or to make appropriate notations on Lender's books
and records, provided that the failure to make any such notation (or any error
therein) shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers to repay the Loans
made under this Note.  Such notations made by Lender shall be conclusive
evidence of all loans and payments made hereunder absent manifest error.

          3.  Interest.
              --------

          (a)     The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear
interest at a rate of 10% per annum.  In the event this Note is not paid on the
Maturity Date or following an Event of Default, the outstanding principal
balance of this Note shall bear interest at a rate of 15% per annum following
such date.

          (b)     Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year
for the actual number of days elapsed.  Interest on the principal amount of all
outstanding Loans shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each month and
if not so paid shall be added to the principal balance monthly.

          4.  Principal.  The principal balance of this Note shall be paid on
              ---------
the Maturity Date.  Borrowers may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any
time without premium or penalty.  Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment of
the outstanding principal balance of this Note, and any accrued and unpaid
interest hereon, on the date on which either Borrower or POS's stockholders
enter into a transaction with a Person other than Lender which involves (i) a
merger or consolidation of either Borrower with another Person or the transfer
of any portion of the outstanding capital stock or assets to another Person or
(ii) a debt or equity financing by either Borrower; provided that, in the event
the financing does not raise proceeds (net of costs and expenses of the
financing transaction) equal to or in excess of $3,500,000, the mandatory
prepayment shall be limited in an amount to 50% of the net proceeds raised in
such financing transaction.

          5.  Adjustment of Principal Amount.
              ------------------------------

          (a)     The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be
reduced by $350,000 in the event Lender becomes obligated to pay liquidated
damages to Borrowers under Section 10.3(c) of the Merger Agreement following a
termination of the Merger Agreement for one of the reasons specified in Section
10.3(c).  In such event, Borrowers shall be deemed to have offset the amount of
the liquidated damages owed by Lender against the outstanding balance hereof.

          (b)     The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be
increased by $350,000 in the event Borrowers become obligated to pay liquidated
damages to Lender under Section 10.3(b) of the Merger Agreement following a
termination of the Merger Agreement for one of the reasons specified in Section
10.3(b).  In such event, Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested and
received an additional Loan in the amount of $350,000.

                                        3
<PAGE>
          6.  Payments.  All payments due under or pursuant to this Note shall
              --------
be made when due at such address as Lender may designate in writing from time to
time, in lawful money of the United States of America.

          7.  Collateral.  This Note is secured by a security interest in
              ----------
substantially all the assets of Borrowers granted pursuant to a Security
Agreement dated the date hereof (the "Security Agreement").  Upon the occurrence
                                      ------------------
of an Event of Default, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies set forth
in the Security Agreement.

          8.  Conversion.
              ----------

          (a)     Lender may at any time before or after the occurrence of an
Event of Default convert all or a portion of the unpaid principal balance of
this Note (including accrued and unpaid interest) into such number of shares of
Common Stock of POS as is equal to the product of (A) a fraction, the numerator
of which is the then-outstanding balance of this Note (including accrued and
unpaid interest) and the denominator of which is $5,000,000, and (B) the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis, including,
without limitation, shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to (i) any
outstanding rights, options or warrant to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise
acquire shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock and
(ii) outstanding indebtedness, shares or other securtities convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock.

          (b)     If Lender desires to convert this Note into shares of Common
Stock, Lender shall surrender this Note and shall give written notice to POS
that Lender elects to convert the same.  POS shall, as soon as practicable
thereafter, issue and deliver to Lender, a certificate or certificates for the
number of shares of Common Stock to which Lender shall be entitled.  Such
conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of
business on the date of surrender of this Note, and Lender shall be treated for
all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on such date.
If Lender elects to convert less than the entire outstanding balance of this
Note, Borrowers shall issue a replacement promissory note for the balance which
is not converted.

          (c)     POS will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation
or through any reorganization, transfer of 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 to be observed
or performed hereunder by POS, but will at all times in good faith assist in the
carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 8 and in the taking of all
such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the
conversion rights of Lender against impairment.

          (d)     In the event of any taking by POS of a record of the holders
of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof
who are entitled to (i) receive any dividend or other distribution, any security
or right convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive additional
shares of Common Stock, (ii) receive any right to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or
property, or to receive any other right, or (iii) approve any transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution

                                        4
<PAGE>
or other reorganization, Borrowers shall mail to Lender at least twenty (20)
days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which
any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
security, or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution,
security or right.

          (e)     POS shall pay any and all issue and other taxes (except taxes
measured by the net income of Lender) that may be payable in respect of any
issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of this Note pursuant
hereto.

          (f)     POS 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 this Note, such number of its shares of Common Stock
as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note.
If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note, POS will take
such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient
for such purpose, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to
obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to its
certificate of incorporation.

          (g)     In case of any reorganization or any reclassification of the
capital stock of POS, any consolidation or merger of POS with or into another
Person, or the conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of POS to
another Person, this Note shall thereafter be convertible into the number of
shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) which a holder
of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of this Note
would have been entitled upon the record date of (or date of, if no record date
is fixed) such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or
conveyance; and, in any case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the
application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the rights and
interests thereafter of Lender, to the end that the provisions set forth herein
shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as equivalent as is practicable, in
relation to any shares of stock or the securities or property (including cash)
thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of this Note.

          9.  Representations and Warranties.  The Borrowers jointly and
              ------------------------------
severally represent and warrant as follows:

          (a)     Borrowers have the corporate power and authority to execute

of Borrowers, enforceable against Borrowers in accordance with its terms.

this Note or in the Security Agreement proves to be false or misleading in any
material respect;

inability to pay its debts as they become due.

          Upon the occurrence of one of the events specified in clauses (a)
through (d), all amounts due under this Note may, at Lender's option, be
accelerated and declared payable in full. Upon the occurrence of one of the
events specified in clause (e), all amounts due under this Note shall

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

          (a)     submits for itself and its property in any legal action or

          (b)     consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in
such courts, and waives any objection that the Borrower may now or hereafter
have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that

plead or claim the same;

          (c)     agrees that service of process in any such action or
proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified
