service by the Borrower (determined in accordance with the provisions of Section
103 of the Code and the applicable regulations thereunder) more than one (1)
year prior to the date of issuance of the Bond.

         (t) NO COMMON PLAN OF FINANCING. Subsequent to fifteen (15) days prior

issued with the assistance or participation of, or by arrangement with, the
Borrower or any Related Person (or group of Related Persons including the
Borrower) without the written opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that the
issuance of such obligation will not adversely affect their opinion as to the
exclusion of interest on the Bond from the gross income of the Purchaser under
Section 103 of the Code, other than a Person who is a Substantial User. Other
than the Borrower or any Related Person (or group of Related Persons including
the Borrower), no person has (i) guaranteed, arranged, participated in, assisted
with the issuance of or paid any portion of the cost of the issuance of the
Bond, or (ii) provided any property or any franchise, trademark or trade name

                  (iii) No portion of the Bond Proceeds will be used to provide
         any private or commercial golf course, country club, massage parlor,
         tennis club, skating facility (including roller skating, skateboarding
         and ice skating), racquet sports facility (including any handball or
         racquetball court), hot tub facility, suntan facility, racetrack,
         airplane, skybox (or other private luxury box), health club facility,

any, under Rev. Proc. 87-56, as supplemented and amended from time to time, and
guideline life, if any, under Rev. Proc. 62-21, 1962-2 C.B. 118, as supplemented

         laws, regulations and executive orders, either Federal, State and
         local, pertaining to environmental matters, as the same may be amended
         or supplemented from time to time. Any terms mentioned in the following
         subsections that are defined in any Applicable Environmental Law shall
         have the meanings ascribed to such terms in said laws; provided,
         however, that if any of such laws are amended so as to broaden any term
         defined therein, such broader meaning shall apply subsequent to the
         effective date of such amendment.

                  (ii) Except for the ongoing investigation under the New Jersey
         Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Underground Storage
         Tanks Case #91-06-04-1413, UST #0033590, the Borrower represents and
         warrants that neither, to its knowledge, the Borrower nor the Project
         are in violation of or subject to any existing, pending or threatened
         investigation or inquiry by any governmental authority pertaining to
         any Applicable Environmental Law. The Borrower shall not knowingly
         cause or permit the Project to be in violation of, or do anything that
         would subject the Project to any remedial obligations under, any
         Applicable Environmental Law, and shall promptly notify the Authority
         and the Purchaser in writing of any existing, pending or threatened
         investigation or inquiry by any governmental authority in connection
         with any Applicable Environmental Law.

         asbestos, or any substance containing asbestos deemed hazardous by
         Federal or State regulations, is presently installed in the Project.
         The Borrower covenants that it will not install in the Project friable
         asbestos or any substance containing asbestos deemed hazardous by
         Federal or State regulations. In the event any such materials are found
         to be present at the Project, the Borrower agrees to remove the same
         promptly upon discovery at its sole cost and expense.

                  (iv) Except as permitted by law, the use that the Borrower
         intends to make of the Project will not result in the disposal or other
         release or discharge of any Hazardous Substance or Hazardous Waste on
         or to the Project.

                  (v) The Borrower further represents, warrants, covenants and
agrees as follows:

                  (A) Except as permitted by applicable Federal, State and local
laws, regulations and executive orders, none of the real property owned and/or
occupied by the Borrower, including, without limitation, the Project, will be
used in the future to (1) refine, produce, store, handle, transfer, process or
transport Hazardous Substances or Hazardous

                                      -16-

<PAGE>

Wastes; or (2) generate, manufacture, refine, transport, heat, store, handle or
dispose of Hazardous Substances or Hazardous Wastes.

                  (B) Except for the ongoing investigation under the New Jersey
Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Underground Storage Tanks Case
#91-06-04-1413, UST #0033590, the Borrower has not received any communication,
written or oral, from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection
concerning any intentional or unintentional action or omission on the Borrower's
part resulting in the releasing, spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting,
emptying or dumping of Hazardous Substances or Hazardous Wastes into the waters
or onto the lands of the State, or into the waters outside the jurisdiction of
the State, resulting in damage to the lands, waters, fish, shellfish, wildlife,
biota, air and other resources owned, managed, held in trust or otherwise
controlled by the State.

                  (C) The Borrower is an owner and operator of a Major Facility
and has furnished the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection with all
the information required by N.J.S.A. 58:10-23.11d and has filed with the
Director of the Division of Taxation a tax report or return, and has paid all
taxes due therewith, in accordance with N.J.S.A. 58:10-23.11h.

                  (D) The Borrower's facilities and the Project is an activity
which is classified as an Industrial Establishment under ISRA. In the event that
the provisions of ISRA become applicable to the Project subsequent to the date
hereof, the Borrower shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Purchaser
and shall take immediate requisite action to insure full compliance therewith.
The Borrower shall deliver to the Authority and the Purchaser copies of all
correspondence, notices and submissions that it sends to or receives from the
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection in connection with such ISRA
compliance. The Borrower's obligation to comply with ISRA shall, notwithstanding
its general applicability, also specifically apply to a sale, transfer, closure
or termination of operations associated with any foreclosure action.

                  (E) No lien has been attached to any revenue or any real or
personal property owned by the Borrower and located in the State, including,
without limitation, the Project, as a result of (1) the Administrator of the New
Jersey Spill Compensation Fund expending moneys from said fund to pay for
Damages (as such term is defined in N.J.S.A. 58:10-23.11(g)) and/or Cleanup and
Removal Costs (as such term is defined in N.J.S.A. 58:10-23.11(b)(d)); or (2)
the Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency expending
moneys from the Hazardous Substance Superfund (as such term is referred to in 26
U.S.C. ss.9507) for Damages (as such term is defined in 42 U.S.C. ss.9601(6))
and/or Response Action Costs (as such term is defined in 42 U.S.C. ss.9607(a)).
In the event that any such lien has been filed, the Borrower shall then, within
sixty (60) days from the date that the Borrower is given notice of such lien of
(or within such shorter period of time in the event that the State or the United
States has commenced steps to have the Project sold), either: (i) pay the claim
and remove the lien from the Premises; or (ii) furnish (a) a bond satisfactory
to the Authority and the Purchaser in the amount of the claim out of which the
lien arises, (b) a cash deposit in the amount of the claim out of which the lien
arises, or (c) other security satisfactory to the Authority and the Purchaser in
an amount sufficient to discharge the claim out of which the lien arises.

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

                  (F) In the event that the Borrower shall cause or permit to
exist a releasing, spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, omitting, emptying or
dumping of Hazardous Substances or Hazardous Wastes into the waters or onto the
lands of the State, or into the waters outside the jurisdiction of the State,
resulting in damage to the lands, waters, fish, shellfish, wildlife, biota, air
or other resources owned, managed, held in trust or otherwise controlled by the
State, without having obtained a permit issued by the appropriate authorities,
the Borrower shall promptly clean up such release, spill, leak, pumping,
pouring, emission, emptying or dumping in accordance with the provisions of the
Spill Act.

         (y) ACTIONS AFFECTING TREATMENT OF INTEREST. The Borrower has not taken
and will not take any action, and knows of no action that any other person has
taken or intends to take, that would cause interest income on the Bond to be
includable in the gross income of the recipients thereof under Section 103 of
the Code, other than a Person who is a Substantial User.

         (z) NO FEDERAL GUARANTY. The Bond will not be Federally guaranteed
within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code. For purposes of this
representation, no Principal User of the Project has entered into any leases of
the Project to, or any sales or service contracts with, any Federal government
agency with the result that the Bond is so Federally guaranteed within the
meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code.

         (aa) ISSUANCE COSTS. No more than two percent (2%) of the proceeds of
the Bond will be used to pay the issuance costs of the Bond (as such terms are
used in Section 147(g) of the Code).

         (bb) MANUFACTURING. The Borrower represents that: (i) it will use or
cause the Project to be used as a "manufacturing facility" within the meaning of
Section 144(a)(12)(C) of the Code; (ii) no more than 25 percent of the net
proceeds of the Bond will be used to finance property the use of which is merely
directly related to or ancillary to the core manufacturing facility (e.g.,
product delivery vehicles or inventory storage); and (iii) all such facilities
will be located on the same site as the manufacturing facility.

         (cc) UTILITIES. All utility services necessary for the operation of the
Project for its intended purposes are available at the boundaries of the
Premises, including water supply, storm and sanitary sewer, gas, electric power
and telephone facilities.

         (dd) REQUISITIONS. Each Requisition Form for an advance heretofore
presented to the Escrow Agent and the receipt of the funds requested thereby are
for appropriate direct and indirect costs of the Project.

         (ee) NO LIENS. The Borrower has entered into no contract or arrangement
of any other kind the performance of which by the other party thereto would give
rise to a lien on the Premises or Project prior to the security granted pursuant
to the Bond Documents which has not been subordinated to the lien created by the
Security Agreement.

         (ff) ACCESS. Either roads necessary for the full utilization of the
Project for its

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

intended purposes have been completed or the necessary rights of way therefor
have been acquired by the appropriate Governmental Authority or dedicated to
public use and accepted by such Governmental Authority, and all necessary steps
have been taken by the Borrower and such Governmental Authority to assure the
complete construction and installation thereof no later than the Completion Date
or any earlier date required by any law, order or regulation.

         (gg) TRUE AND CORRECT. The Borrower covenants that the representations
and warranties hereby made by it in this Section 1.3 and within its control will
be true and correct continuously throughout the term of this Agreement.

         Section 1.4       AUTHORITY  REPRESENTATIONS  AND FINDINGS.  The
Authority  hereby  confirms its findings and represents that:

         (a) It is a public body corporate and politic constituting an
instrumentality of the State, duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State, particularly the Act. The Authority is authorized to issue the Bond in
accordance with the Act and to use the proceeds from the sale of the Bond to
make the Loan to the Borrower.

         (b) It has complied with the provisions of the Act and has full power
and authority pursuant to the Act to consummate all of the transactions
contemplated to be consummated by the Authority by this Bond Agreement, the
Bond, the Resolution and any and all other agreements relating thereto and to
issue, sell and deliver the Bond as provided herein.

         (c) By the Resolution duly adopted by the Authority and still in full
force and effect, it has duly authorized the execution, delivery and due
performance of this Bond Agreement, the Assignment and the Bond and the taking
of any and all actions as may be required on the date hereof on the part of the
Authority to carry out, give effect to and consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Bond Agreement. All approvals of the Authority necessary in
connection with the foregoing have been received.

         (d) The Authority has the requisite authority to execute the Bond and
when delivered to and paid for by the Purchaser, the Bond will have been duly
authorized, executed and issued and will constitute a valid and binding limited
obligation of the Authority enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws or
equitable principles affecting creditors' rights or remedies generally). The
State is not obligated to pay, and neither the faith and credit nor taxing power
of the State is pledged to the payment of the principal or redemption price, if
any, of or interest on the Bond. The Bond is a special, limited obligation of
the Authority, payable solely out of the revenues or other receipts, funds or
moneys of the Authority pledged hereunder and from any amounts otherwise
available hereunder for the payment of the Bond. The Bond does not now and shall
never constitute a charge against the general credit of the Authority. The
Authority has no taxing power.

         (e) The execution and delivery of this Bond Agreement, the Assignment
and the Bond, and compliance with the provisions hereof and thereof, do not
conflict with or constitute on the part of the Authority a violation of the
Constitution of the State or a violation or breach of or default under its
by-laws or any statute, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, note or other

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound or, to
the knowledge of the Authority, any order, rule or regulation of any court or
governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over it or any of its activities
or properties. All consents, approvals, authorizations and orders of
governmental or regulatory authorities that are required to be obtained by the
Authority for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby have been obtained.

         (f) It shall apply the proceeds from the sale of the Bond and the
revenues derived under this Bond Agreement for the purposes specified and in the
manner provided in this Bond Agreement.

         (g) To the best of its knowledge, there is no action, suit or
proceeding at law or in equity pending or threatened against the Authority to
restrain or enjoin the issuance or sale of the Bond or in any way contesting the
validity or affecting the power of the Authority with respect to the issuance
and sale of the Bond or the documents or instruments executed by the Authority
in connection therewith or the existence or powers of the Authority or the right
of the Authority to finance the Project, nor to the best knowledge of the
Authority, any basis therefor.

         (h) Any certificate signed by an Authorized Authority Representative
and delivered to the Borrower or the Purchaser shall be deemed a representation
and warranty by the Authority to the Borrower or the Purchaser, as the case may
be, as to the statements made therein.

         (i) The Authority covenants to comply with the provisions of the Code
applicable to the Bond and covenants not to take any action, or fail to take any
action, that would cause the interest on the Bond to become includable in gross
income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Code, other than
a Person who is a Substantial User. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Authority will not take any action, or permit any action to be
taken which would cause the Bond to be an "arbitrage bond" under the section 148
of the Code. All of the representations and certifications of the Authority
contained in the arbitrage certificate with respect to the Bond are incorporated
herein by reference with the same force and effect as if set out in full herein.

         It is specifically understood and agreed that the Authority makes no
representation as to the financial position or business condition of the
Borrower, and it does not represent or warrant as to any of the statements,
materials (financial or otherwise), representations or certifications furnished
or to be made and furnished by the Borrower in connection with the sale of the
Bond, or as to the correctness, completeness or accuracy of any such statements.

         Section 1.5       PURCHASER REPRESENTATIONS.  The Purchaser hereby
represents as follows:

         (a) It has made an independent investigation and evaluation of the
financial position and business condition of the Borrower and the value of the
Project, or has caused such investigation and evaluation of the Borrower and the
Project to be made by Persons it deems competent to do so. All information
relating to the business and affairs of the Borrower that the Purchaser has
requested in connection with the transactions referred to herein has been
provided to the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby expressly waives the right to
receive such information

                                      -20-

from the Authority, and it relieves the Authority and its agents,
representatives and attorneys of any liability for failure to provide such

Borrower under this Agreement or for the failure therein to include any fact.

         (b) It is purchasing the Bond for its own account with the purpose of

insurance in effect, and cause all policies covering any collateral and business
interruption to contain loss payee endorsements in favor of the Authority and
the Purchaser and to be subject to cancellation or reduction in coverage only
upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof to the Purchaser.

         (c) Pay and discharge when due all taxes, assessments or other
governmental charges imposed on it or its properties, unless the same are
currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and adequate
reserves are maintained therefor.

         (d) Operate its properties, rented or owned, in compliance with all
applicable orders, rules and regulations, and duly file such reports as may be
required or appropriate.

         (e) Permit the Authority's and the Purchaser's representatives access

its outside accountants.

         (f) In the event that there shall be filed a lien against any of its
properties by any governmental entity in connection with the discharge of
hazardous substances or waste, then either (i) pay the claim and remove the lien

         Section 2.1 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT. As the acquisition, construction,
reconstruction, renovation, rehabilitation and installation of the Project
proceeds, and as improvements, additions, changes and replacements are proposed
by the Borrower, the Borrower will supplement the description of the Project
contained in the recitals hereof by filing with the Authority and the Purchaser
information showing:

                  (a) a description of the nature, function and size of
         machinery and equipment to be included as part of the Project;

                  (b) the Contractors performing work in connection with
         acquisition construction, reconstruction, renovation, rehabilitation
         and installation of the Project; and

                  (c)      the estimated cost of the Project.

The Borrower will provide such supplemental information to reflect material
additions to, deletions from and changes in the Project, and it will notify the
Authority and the Purchaser of such modifications so that the Authority and the
Purchaser will be able to ascertain the nature, location and estimated cost of
the facilities covered by this Agreement.

         Section 2.2 NOTICES AND PERMITS. The Borrower shall give or cause to be
given all notices and shall comply or cause compliance with all laws,
ordinances, municipal rules and regulations and requirements of public
authorities applying to or affecting the conduct of the work on the Project, and
the Borrower will defend and save the Authority, its members, officers, agents
and employees and the Purchaser, its officers, agents and employees harmless
from all fines due to failure to comply therewith. The Borrower shall procure or
cause to be procured all permits and licenses necessary for the construction,

option with the consent of the Purchaser and at its own cost and expense, at any
time and from time to time, make such improvements, additions and changes to the
Project as it may deem to be desirable for its uses and purposes; provided that
it does not adversely affect the tax exempt status of the Bond or prevent the
Project from being an authorized project under the Act.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                  THE FINANCING

         Section 3.1 THE FINANCING. The Purchaser has agreed with the Authority
to purchase the Bond, and the Authority has agreed to make the Loan to the
Borrower. To accomplish this financing, the following acts will occur
simultaneously and concurrently with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement:

         (1) The Authority will sell, issue and deliver the Bond to the
Purchaser.

         (2) The Purchaser will deliver the proceeds from the sale of the Bond
to the Escrow Agent in accordance with instructions from the Authority to the
Purchaser to such effect.

         (3) The Borrower will execute and deliver to the Authority the Note and
the other Bond Documents.

         (4) The Authority will assign, subject to certain reservations, the
Bond Documents to the Purchaser in accordance with the Assignment.

         Section 3.2 EFFECTIVENESS OF BOND AND NOTE. Subject to Section 6.8
hereof, the Bond will be outstanding and will control the interest rate and
monthly payments due the Purchaser. If there is an Event of Default, the
provisions of Article VI hereof will govern. If the obligations of the Authority
pursuant to the Bond have been released and canceled pursuant to Section 6.8
hereof, the Note will remain fully effective and will control the interest rate
and monthly payments due the Purchaser.

         Section 3.3 THE BOND. The Bond will be a special, limited obligation of
the Authority, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on which are
payable solely from the moneys to be derived pursuant to the Bond Documents or
derived from the liquidation of any property pledged to the Authority and
assigned to the Purchaser as security for the Loan.

         The Act provides that neither the members of the Authority nor any
Person executing bonds for the Authority shall be liable personally on said
bonds by reason of the issuance thereof.

         The State is not obligated to pay, and neither the faith and credit nor
taxing power of the State is pledged to the payment of, the principal or
redemption price, if any, of or interest on the Bond. The Bond does not now and
shall never constitute a charge against the general credit of the Authority. The
Authority has no taxing power.

         Subject to the terms and conditions and upon the basis of the
representations herein, the Authority hereby agrees to sell the Bond to the
Purchaser, and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase the Bond from the
Authority, at the purchase price of $4,500,000 plus accrued interest, if any,
from the date of the Bond to the date of delivery thereof and payment therefor.

                                      -25-

<PAGE>

         The Bond will be delivered in registered form. Payment for the Bond by
the Purchaser and delivery thereof by the Authority shall be made at the offices
of the Authority in Trenton, New Jersey, or at such other place in the State as
the Authority and the Purchaser mutually agree.

         The offering of the Bond has not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and this Bond Agreement has not been qualified under
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The Bond may not be offered or sold
by the Purchaser in contravention of said acts.

         Section 3.4 DEPOSIT OF NET PROCEEDS. The Net Proceeds of the Bond will
be deposited in the Proceeds Account of Escrow Fund established in Section 3.5
hereof for payment of Costs of the Project, upon requisition by the Borrower as
provided in Section 3.5 hereof. The Borrower agrees that the sums so
requisitioned from the Escrow Fund will be used for the Costs of the Project.

         Section 3.5 ESCROW FUND. (a) The Authority irrevocably authorizes and
directs the Escrow Agent to make payments from the Escrow Fund to pay Costs of
the Project or to reimburse the Borrower for any Cost of the Project paid by it.
Pursuant to this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall make such payments directly
to or at the direction of the Borrower without any act by the Authority, upon
compliance by the Borrower with the requirements of this Agreement.

         (b) All disbursements from the Escrow Fund are to be approved by the
Purchaser and may also be verified by the Purchaser from time to time.

         (c) Except for the first requisition, all requisitions shall be
received by the Escrow Agent no less than five (5) business days prior to the
date of the requested advance.

         (d) If at any time (which may include the execution of this Agreement
and the inception of the Loan), and from time to time, the Purchaser shall
determine that the Loan, the undisbursed balance thereof or any allocated Loan
budget amount is insufficient to cover the remaining costs of completion of the
Project or the remaining costs associated with such Loan budget amount, then to
further secure the future payment of the Borrower's share of such costs the
Purchaser may require the Borrower to furnish a "Completion Deposit", which
shall consist of a deposit with the Escrow Agent of cash, letters of credit or
marketable securities by the Borrower in an amount satisfactory to the
Purchaser, and which the Purchaser may from time to time apply, or allow the
Borrower to apply, to the satisfaction and payment of the Borrower's share with
respect to completion of the Project. Portions of any Completion Deposit shall
be released to the Borrower when and to the extent that the Purchaser determines
that the value or amount thereof is more than the excess, if any, of the total
remaining costs of completion or remaining costs of such line item of the budget
(as the case may be) over the undisbursed balance of the Loan or such line item
of the budget (as the case may be).

         (e) The Borrower agrees as a condition precedent to the disbursement of
any portion of the Escrow Fund to comply with the terms of this Agreement and to
furnish the Escrow Agent and the Purchaser with a Requisition Form signed by an
Authorized Borrower Representative

                                      -26-

that each obligation for which payment is sought is a Proper Charge against the
applicable account of the Escrow Fund, is unpaid or unreimbursed, and has not
been the basis of any previously paid requisition; (vi) if such payment is a
reimbursement to the Borrower for costs or expenses incurred by reason of work
performed, inspected or supervised by officers or employees of the Borrower or
any of its affiliates, that the amount to be paid does not exceed the actual
cost thereof to the Borrower or any of its affiliates; (vii) that no uncured
Event of Default has occurred under this Bond Agreement; and (viii) the Borrower
has received no written notice of any lien, right to lien or attachment upon, or
other claim affecting the right to receive payment of, any of the moneys payable
under such Requisition Form to any of the Persons named therein, or if any of
the foregoing has been received, it has been released or discharged or will be
released or discharged upon payment of the Requisition Form;.

         (f) The Purchaser or its counsel, as appropriate, shall have received

disbursement from the Escrow Fund with the same effect as if made on such date.

                  (iv) The Project shall not have been materially injured or
damaged by fire or other casualty unless the Purchaser shall have received
insurance proceeds sufficient in the judgment of the Purchaser to effect the
satisfactory restoration of the Project and to permit the completion thereof

Default on the part of the Borrower under this Agreement, and no default under
the Note or the other Bond Documents, and no event shall have occurred and be
continuing which after notice or passage of time or both

                                      -27-

and (ix) shall be satisfied

                                      -28-

<PAGE>

         Section 3.6 REBATE FUND. There is hereby created and established with
the Escrow Agent an escrow fund in the name of the Authority to be designated
the Rebate Fund. There shall be paid into the Rebate Fund all amounts to be
deposited therein pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof upon written instructions to
the Escrow Agent, and said amounts shall be applied as provided in said Section
5.5. Any surplus remaining in the Rebate Fund after all payments required
therefrom pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof shall be transferred to the Proceeds
Account of the Escrow Fund, but the excess, if any, over such amount as will be
sufficient to discharge and satisfy this Bond Agreement and the fees, charges
and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be paid over to the Borrower free and
clear of any pledge or lien hereunder.

         Section 3.7 ESTABLISHMENT OF COMPLETION DATE. Within ten (10) business
days after the completion of the Project, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Authority, the Purchaser and the Escrow Agent the Borrower's Completion

Agent at the Borrower's direction for any cost of the Project not then due and
payable or, if due and payable, not then paid: (i) the Project has been
completed; (ii) the cost of all labor, services, materials and supplies used in
the Project have been paid, or will be paid from amounts retained by the Escrow
Agent at the Borrower's direction for any cost of the Project not then due and
payable or, if due and payable, not then paid; (iii) the Project Equipment, if
any, has been installed to the Borrower's satisfaction, such Project Equipment
so installed is suitable and sufficient for the efficient operation of the
Project for the intended purposes, and all costs and expenses incurred in the
acquisition, construction, reconstruction, renovation, rehabilitation and
installation of such Project Equipment have been paid, or will be paid from
amounts retained by the Escrow Agent at the Borrower's direction for any cost of
the Project not then due and payable or, if due and payable, not then paid; (iv)
the Project is being operated as an authorized "project" under the Act and
substantially as proposed in the Application; (v) the Borrower has reviewed the
Contractor's Completion Certificate, if any, and the Borrower has no knowledge

misleading; and (vi) the Borrower has required in all Construction Contracts, if
any, that wages paid to workers employed in the performance of Construction
Contracts be paid at a rate not less than the Prevailing Wage Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower's Completion Certificate may state
that it is given without prejudice to any rights against third parties that
exist at the date of the Borrower's Completion Certificate or that may
subsequently come into being. Any amount remaining in the Proceeds Account of
the Escrow Fund thereafter (except for amounts therein sufficient to cover costs
of the Project not then due and payable or not then paid) shall be applied by
the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 3.11 hereof. The Borrower shall give
the Escrow Agent investment instructions with respect thereto that would not
result in such funds being invested at a Yield materially higher than the Yield
on the Bond.

         Section 3.8 BOND NOT TO BECOME ARBITRAGE BOND. The Escrow Agent will
invest moneys held by the Escrow Agent as directed in writing by the Borrower.
The Borrower hereby covenants to the Authority and to the Purchaser that,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other instrument,
it will neither make nor instruct the Escrow Agent to make any investment or
other use of the Escrow Fund or other proceeds of the Bond that would cause

                                      -29-

<PAGE>

the Bond to be an arbitrage bond under Section 148 of the Code and the
regulations thereunder, and that it will comply with the requirements of such
Section 148 and such regulations throughout the term of the Bond. The Escrow
Agent is entitled to rely on such written directions and shall not be liable for
any direct or consequential damages that may result from the Escrow Agent's
compliance with such directions.

         Section 3.9 RESTRICTION ON USE OF ESCROW FUND. The Borrower shall apply
the proceeds of the Bond as set forth in this Agreement and as further described
in the Tax Representation Letter, and (i) shall not use or direct the use of
moneys from the Escrow Fund, or take or omit to take any other action, so as to
cause the interest on the Bond to be included in the gross income of the
Purchaser for Federal income tax purposes, except if such Purchaser is a
Substantial User, (ii) shall not use more than 2% of the proceeds of the Bond
for costs of issuance thereof, (iii) shall use at least 95% of the proceeds of
the Bond for Project Costs constituting land or property of a character subject
to an allowance for depreciation for Federal income tax purposes within the
meaning of Section 167 of the Code, and (iv) shall not use the proceeds of the
Bond to acquire, construct or install facilities the nature of which would cause
the interest on the Bond to become subject to Federal income tax, other than a
Person who is a Substantial User.

         Section 3.10 THREE-YEAR EXPENDITURE REQUIREMENT. Except to the extent
otherwise approved by an opinion of Bond Counsel furnished by the Borrower to
the Purchaser, within three years of the date of original delivery and payment
for the Bond, the Borrower shall have acquired the Project and caused all of the
proceeds of the Bond to be expended for Costs of the Project.

         Section 3.11 COMPLETION OF PROJECT; EXCESS BOND PROCEEDS. When the
Borrower certifies to the Escrow Agent and the Authority that the Project is
complete, any amounts remaining in (a) the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund,
as and when determined by the Escrow Agent and the Purchaser, will be applied to
the payment of the Bond, together with any applicable prepayment premiums and
(b) the Equity Account of the Escrow Fund, as and when determined by the Escrow
Agent and the Purchaser, will be paid to the Borrower. If for any reason the
amount in the Escrow Fund proves insufficient to pay all Costs of the Project,
the Borrower will pay the remainder of such Costs.

         Section 3.12 ESCROW AGENT NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR USE OF PROCEEDS. The
Borrower acknowledges that the Escrow Agent is not responsible for the ultimate
use of the Bond Proceeds or any consequences, of whatever kind, resulting,
directly or indirectly, from the Borrower's use of Bond Proceeds.

         Section 3.13 INVESTMENT OF ESCROW FUND. (a) So long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Escrow Agent may invest or reinvest,
in accordance with written directions or oral directions confirmed in writing of
the Authorized Borrower Representative, only in the following obligations or
securities (collectively, "Permitted Investments"):

                  (i) direct obligations of the United States of America for

                  (ii) obligations issued by any instrumentality or agency of
         the United States of America, whether now existing or hereafter
         organized, and guaranteed by the United States of America,

                  (iii) obligations issued or guaranteed by any state of the
         United States or the District of Columbia that are rated at least Aa by
         Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or AA by Standard & Poor's
         Corporation ("S&P"),

                  (iv) repurchase agreements fully secured by obligations of the
         kind specified in (i) or (ii) above, including repurchase agreements
         with the Escrow Agent,

                  (v) interest-bearing deposits in any bank or trust company
         (which may include the Escrow Agent) or any other bank or trust company
         that has a combined capital surplus and undivided profits of at least
         $50,000,000,

                  (vi) commercial paper with one of the two highest ratings from
         Moody's or S&P,

                  (vii) deposits in the Federated Cash Management Fund Trust for
         short-term government obligations or any similar common trust fund
         established pursuant to law as a legal depository of public moneys.

         (b) With respect to Permitted Investments described in clause (iv) of
subsection (a) above, the Escrow Agent shall make any such purchase subject to
agreement with the seller for repurchase by the seller at a later date, and in
such connection may accept the seller's agreement for the payment of interest in
lieu of the right to receive the interest payable by the issuer of the security
purchased, provided that title to the security so purchased by the Escrow Agent
shall vest in the Escrow Agent, that the Escrow Agent shall have a perfected
security interest in such security, and that the current market value of such
security (or of cash or additional securities of the type described in said
clauses pledged with the Escrow Agent as collateral for the purpose) is at all
times at least equal to the total amount thereafter to become payable by the
seller under said agreement, or may purchase shares of a fund whose sole assets
are of a type described in clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection (a) above and such
repurchase agreements thereof.

         (c) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder,
the Escrow Agent may make such investments in Permitted Investments as are
permitted under applicable law as it deems advisable and as directed by the
Purchaser; provided, that in no event shall it invest in securities issued by or
obligations of, or guaranteed by, the Authority, the Borrower or any affiliate
or agent of either of the foregoing.

         Section 3.14 GENERAL PROVISIONS OF INVESTMENTS. (a) Any Permissible
Investments of money in the Escrow Fund shall be held by or under the control of
the Escrow Agent and shall be deemed at all times as part of the fund or account
from which the investment was made, and the interest accruing on any such
investment and any profit realized from such investment shall be credited to
such fund or account and any loss resulting from such investment shall be
charged to such fund or account.

                                      -31-

         (b) The Borrower shall not direct the Escrow Agent to invest the
proceeds of the Bond or payments due under this Bond Agreement, or any other
funds that may be deemed to be proceeds of the Bond pursuant to Section 103 or
148 of the Code and the applicable regulations thereunder, including proposed
regulations, in such a way as to cause the Bond to be treated as an "arbitrage
bond" within the meaning of Section 103 or 148 of the Code and such regulations
issued thereunder, as applicable to the Bond. In accordance with the foregoing,
unless the Escrow Agent shall have been furnished with an approving opinion of
Bond Counsel, no moneys in the Escrow Fund shall be invested except as provided
in the Authority's Arbitrage Certificate delivered in conjunction with the
issuance of the Bond.

         (c) The Escrow Agent shall not be held liable for any breach by the
Borrower of provisions of the foregoing subsection 3.14(b) as long as the Escrow
Agent invests or reinvests, pursuant to written directions of an Authorized
Borrower Representative, moneys in Permitted Investments pursuant hereto. The
Escrow Agent shall refuse to invest in obligations directed by the Authorized
Borrower Representative that violate the provisions hereof.

         Section 3.15 APPOINTMENT OF ESCROW AGENT; ACCEPTANCE OF THE ESCROW. (a)

         attorney (who may be the attorney or attorneys for the Authority or the
         Borrower) approved by the Escrow Agent in the exercise of its
         reasonable judgment. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any
         loss or damage resulting from any action or non-action in good faith in

         to be secured hereby, or for the value or title of the Project or
         otherwise as to the maintenance of the security hereof, or, except as
         provided in Article VI hereof, for the eligibility of any security as
         an investment of trust funds held by it.

                  (iii) The Escrow Agent shall not be accountable for the use of
         the Bond delivered hereunder after the Bond shall have been delivered
         in accordance with the instructions of the Authority or the Borrower,
         as the case may be. The Escrow Agent may become the Purchaser of the
         Bond secured hereby with the same rights that it would have if not
         Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may engage in banking or other financial
         transactions with the Borrower with the same rights that it would have
         if not Escrow Agent.

                  (iv) The Escrow Agent shall be protected in acting in good
         faith upon any notice, request, investment instruction, consent,
         certificate, order, affidavit, letter, telegram or other paper or
         document believed to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or
         sent by the proper Person or Persons. Any action taken by the Escrow
         Agent pursuant to this Agreement upon the request or authority or
         consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving
         such authority or consent is the Purchaser of the Bond, shall be
         conclusive and binding upon all future Purchasers of the same Bond and
         upon a Bond issued in exchange therefor or in place thereof.

                  (v) As to the existence or nonexistence of any fact or as to
         the sufficiency or validity of any instrument, paper or proceeding, the
         Escrow Agent shall be entitled, in the absence of bad faith on its
         part, to rely upon a certificate of the Authority signed by an
         Authorized Authority Representative or any certificate signed by an
         Authorized Borrower Representative, as sufficient evidence of the facts
         therein contained, and prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default
         of which the Escrow Agent has been notified or deemed notified as
         provided in Section 6.1 hereof, shall also be at liberty to accept a
         similar certificate to the effect that any particular dealing,
         transaction or action is necessary or expedient, but may at its
         discretion secure such further evidence deemed necessary or advisable,
         but shall in no case be bound to secure the same. The Escrow Agent may
         accept a certificate of the Secretary of the Authority under its seal
         to the effect that a resolution in the form therein set forth has been
         adopted by the Authority as conclusive evidence that such resolution
         has been duly adopted and is in full force and effect.

                  (vi) The permissive right of the Escrow Agent to do things
         enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and it
         shall not be answerable for other than its gross negligence, willful
         misconduct or willful default. The Escrow Agent shall act on behalf of
         the Authority hereunder only insofar as its duties are expressly set
         forth, and it shall not have implied duties. The Escrow Agent shall not
         be under a duty to inquire into or pass upon the validity,
         effectiveness, genuineness or value of the Bond Documents, and it shall
         assume that the same are valid, effective and genuine and are what they
         purport to be. The Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel selected
         by it, and shall be entitled to rely upon the opinion of such counsel
         in taking or omitting to take any action. The Escrow Agent shall have
         the same rights and powers as any other bank or lender and may exercise
         the same as though it were not the Escrow Agent, and it may accept
         deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of
         business with the Borrower as though it were not the Escrow Agent.

                                      -33-

<PAGE>

                  (vii) The Escrow Agent shall not be personally liable for any
         debts contracted or for damages to Persons or to personal property
         injured or damaged or for salaries or non-fulfillment of contracts
         relating to the Project during any period.

                  (viii) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Escrow
         Agent and its duly authorized agents, attorneys, experts, engineers,
         accountants and representatives shall have the right, at any and all
         reasonable times, to inspect the Project fully, including all books,
         papers and records of the Authority pertaining to the Project and the
         Bond, and to copy and make extracts thereof and to take such memoranda
         from and with regard thereto as may be reasonably desired.

                  (ix) The Escrow Agent shall not be required to give any bond
         or surety in respect of the execution of the said trusts and powers or
         otherwise in respect of the Premises.

                  (x) Before taking any action hereunder, the Escrow Agent may
         require that a satisfactory indemnity bond be furnished for the
         reimbursement of all expenses to which it may be put and to protect it
         against all liability, except liability that is adjudicated to have
         resulted from gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful default
         by reason of any action so taken.

                  (xi) All moneys or investments received by the Escrow Agent
         shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust in
         the manner and for the purposes for which they were received.

         (b) In the case of and during the continuance of an Event of Default or
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as to which the Escrow Agent has
received a notice as provided herein, the Escrow Agent shall exercise the rights
and powers vested in it hereby, and shall use the same degree of care and skill
in their exercise, as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

         Section 3.16 FEES, CHARGES AND EXPENSES OF ESCROW AGENT. The Escrow
Agent shall be entitled to payment or reimbursement for reasonable fees for
services rendered hereunder and all reasonable expenses actually incurred
(including advances, counsel fees and other expenses reasonably and necessarily
made or incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with such services). The
Escrow Agent shall be entitled to be indemnified for, and be held harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense, incurred without gross negligence or
bad faith on the part of the Escrow Agent, arising out of or in connection with
the acceptance or administration of the trusts hereunder, including the costs
and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in the Premises.
All fees, charges and other compensation to which the Escrow Agent may be
entitled under the provisions of this Agreement are required to be paid by the
Borrower under the terms of this Bond Agreement, and, accordingly, neither the
Authority nor the Purchaser shall be liable to indemnify the Escrow Agent for
fees, charges and other compensation to which the Escrow Agent may be entitled,
and by acceptance of the trusts hereunder the Escrow Agent shall be deemed to
have agreed to the foregoing.

                                      -34-

         Section 3.17 NOTICE TO AUTHORITY, THE ESCROW AGENT AND BORROWER. If the
Escrow Agent is notified in writing by the Internal Revenue Service of the
occurrence or possible occurrence of a Determination of Taxability, the Escrow
Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Authority, the Purchaser and the
Borrower.

         Section 3.18 INTERVENTION BY ESCROW AGENT. In any judicial proceeding
to which the Authority is a party and that, in the opinion of the Escrow Agent
and its counsel, has a substantial bearing on the interests of the Purchaser,
the Escrow Agent may, and if requested in writing by the Purchaser shall,
intervene on behalf of Purchaser provided the Purchaser agrees to indemnify the
Escrow Agent for such intervention.

         Section 3.19 SUCCESSOR ESCROW AGENT. Any corporation or association
into which the Escrow Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be
consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its trust business and assets
as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association
resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to
which it is a party, provided such corporation or association is a trust company
or national or state bank within or outside the State having trust powers, is in
good standing, is acceptable to the rating agency or agencies rating the Bond,
if any, and has reported capital surplus and undivided profits of not less than
$50 million, IPSO FACTO, shall be and become successor Escrow Agent hereunder
and vested with all the trusts, powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and
all other matters as was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any
instrument or any further act, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the
parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

         Section 3.20 RESIGNATION BY THE ESCROW AGENT. The Escrow Agent and any
successor Escrow Agent may at any time resign by giving not less than thirty
(30) days' written notice to the Authority, the Purchaser and the Borrower. Such
resignation shall take effect only upon the appointment of a successor Escrow
Agent by the Borrower. Such notice to the Authority, the Purchaser and the
Borrower may be served personally or sent by facsimile (with a hard copy to
follow by overnight delivery). In case at any time the Escrow Agent shall resign
and no appointment of a successor Escrow Agent shall be made prior to the date
specified in the notice of resignation as the date when such resignation shall
take effect, the resigning Escrow Agent may forthwith apply to a court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Escrow Agent. The
Escrow Agent shall be compensated for all costs of seeking and appointing a
successor should the Borrower fail to so appoint a successor Escrow Agent within
the thirty (30) day time period to do so.

         Section 3.21 REMOVAL OF THE ESCROW AGENT. (a) Upon thirty (30) days'
written notice, the Escrow Agent may be removed at any time by an instrument or
concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Escrow Agent, the Authority
and the Borrower and signed by the Purchaser.

         (b) The Escrow Agent may also be removed at any time for any breach of
trust or for acting or proceeding in violation of, or for failing to act or
proceed in accordance with, any provisions of this Agreement by any court of
competent jurisdiction upon the application by the Authority, the Purchaser or
the Borrower.

         Section 3.22 APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR ESCROW AGENT BY THE BORROWER. (a)
In case the Escrow Agent shall resign, or be removed, or be dissolved, or shall
be in the course of dissolution or liquidation, or shall otherwise become
incapable of acting hereunder as fiduciary for the Purchaser, or in case it
shall be taken under the control of any public officer or officers or of a
receiver appointed by a court, the Borrower, by an instrument executed by an
Authorized Borrower Representative, shall forthwith appoint a successor Escrow
Agent to fill such vacancy. Such appointment shall become final upon the written
acceptance of such trusts by the successor Escrow Agent so appointed, as
provided in Section 3.23 hereof.

         (b) Every such Escrow Agent appointed pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 3.22 shall be a national banking association or a domestic bank or
trust company having trust powers in good standing, be acceptable to the rating
agency or agencies rating the Bond, if any, and have a reported capital surplus
and undivided profits of not less than $50 million.

         Section 3.23 CONCERNING ANY SUCCESSOR ESCROW AGENT. (a) Every successor
Escrow Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its
predecessor Escrow Agent, and to the Authority and the Borrower, an instrument
in writing accepting such appointment hereunder as fiduciary for the Purchaser.
Thereupon, such successor, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts,
duties and obligations of its predecessors.

         (b) Every predecessor Escrow Agent shall, on the written request of the
Authority or of the successor Escrow Agent, execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor Escrow Agent all the estates, properties, rights,
powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such predecessor hereunder. Every
predecessor Escrow Agent shall deliver all securities and moneys held by it as
Escrow Agent hereunder to its successor for direct deposit in the appropriate
successor trust accounts. Should any instrument in writing from the Authority be
required by a successor Escrow Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in
such successor the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations hereby vested or intended to be vested in the predecessor Escrow
Agent, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed,
acknowledged and delivered by the Authority.

         (c) The resignation of any Escrow Agent and the instrument or
instruments removing any Escrow Agent and appointing a successor hereunder, or
the instrument evidencing the transfer of the trust estate, shall be filed
and/or recorded by the successor Escrow Agent in each filing or recording office
where this Agreement (or a memorandum thereof) shall have been filed and/or
recorded, if any.

         Section 3.24 ESCROW AGENT PROTECTED IN RELYING UPON RESOLUTIONS, ETC.
The resolutions, opinions, certificates and other instruments provided for in
this Agreement may be accepted by the Escrow Agent as conclusive evidence of the
facts and conclusions stated therein, and shall be full warrant, protection and
authority to the Escrow Agent for the application of moneys hereunder and the
taking of or omitting to take any other action under this Agreement.

<PAGE>

Escrow Agent that has resigned or has been removed shall cease to be Escrow
Agent of the Escrow Fund, and the successor Escrow Agent shall become such
Escrow Agent of the Escrow Fund. Every predecessor Escrow Agent shall deliver to
its successor Escrow Agent all books of account, the registration books and all
other records, documents and instruments relating to its duties as such
custodian.

         Section 3.26 ESCROW AGENT AND AUTHORITY REQUIRED TO ACCEPT DIRECTIONS
AND ACTIONS OF BORROWER. (a) Whenever, after reasonable request by the Borrower,
the Authority shall fail, refuse or neglect to give any direction to the Escrow
Agent or to require the Escrow Agent to take any other action that the Authority
is required to have the Escrow Agent take pursuant to the provisions of this
Bond Agreement, the Borrower, instead of the Authority, may give such direction
to the Escrow Agent or require the Escrow Agent to take any such action. Upon
receipt by the Escrow Agent of a written notice from the Borrower stating that
the Borrower has made reasonable request of the Authority, and that the
Authority has failed, refused or neglected to give any direction to the Escrow
Agent or to require the Escrow Agent to take any such action, the Escrow Agent
is hereby irrevocably empowered and directed, subject to other provisions of
this Agreement, to accept such direction from the Borrower as sufficient for all
purposes of this Agreement. The Borrower shall have the direct right to cause
the Escrow Agent to comply with any of the Escrow Agent's obligations under this
Agreement to the same extent that the Authority is empowered so to do.

         (b) Certain actions or failures to act by the Authority under this
Agreement may create or result in an Event of Default under this Agreement, and
the Authority hereby agrees that the Borrower may, to the extent permitted by
law, perform any and all acts or take such action as may be necessary for and on
behalf of the Authority to prevent or correct said Event of Default, and the
Escrow Agent shall take or accept such performance by the Borrower as
performance by the Authority in such event.

         Section 3.27 REGISTRY BOOKS. The Escrow Agent shall maintain at the
principal office of the Escrow Agent registry systems for the registration and
transfer of the Bond and the Escrow Agent shall register or cause such Bond to
be registered therein, and permit any Bond to be transferred thereon, under such
reasonable regulations as it or the Authority may prescribe. The Escrow Agent is
hereby appointed the agent of the Authority for such registration and transfer
of the Bond.

         Section 3.28 TRANSFER OF BOND. The Bond shall be transferable only upon
the registry systems maintained at the principal office of the Escrow Agent by
the registered owner thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in
writing, upon surrender thereof together with a written instrument of transfer
satisfactory to the Escrow Agent and duly executed by such registered owner or
such duly authorized attorney. No transfer of any Bond shall be valid unless
made on such registry systems and similarly noted by endorsement of the Escrow
Agent on such Bond, or unless, at the expense of the registered owner, the
Authority shall execute, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver, a new Bond
registered in the name of the transferee.

         Section 3.29 BOND MUTILATED, DESTROYED, STOLEN OR LOST. In case any
Bond shall become mutilated, or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Authority
shall, upon request of

                                      37-

<PAGE>

the registered owner, execute, and thereupon the Escrow Agent shall deliver, a
new Bond of like tenor and of the same principal amount as the Bond so
mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and substitution for such
mutilated Bond upon surrender and cancellation of such mutilated Bond, or in
lieu of and substitution for the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, on the
condition that the Escrow Agent shall certify to the Authority that the
registered owner has (a) filed with the Escrow Agent evidence satisfactory to
the Escrow Agent that such Bond has been destroyed, stolen or lost and proof of
ownership thereof, (b) furnished the Escrow Agent with indemnity satisfactory to
the Escrow Agent, (c) complied with such other reasonable regulations as the
Escrow Agent may prescribe, and (d) agreed to pay such fees and expenses as the
Authority and the Escrow Agent may require in connection therewith.

         Section 3.30 NOTICE OF NON-COMPLIANCE. Upon receipt of notice by or
actual knowledge of any officer responsible for the administration of the Escrow
Fund, the Escrow Agent shall report to the Authority and the Purchaser any
breach of any covenant or any Event of Default by the Borrower under this
Agreement or any fact or circumstance that, except for any grace period
permitted by this Agreement, would result in any breach of a covenant or Event
of Default by the Borrower hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall report such breach,
Event of Default or information to the Authority and the Purchaser immediately
after the Escrow Agent becomes aware of such breach or Event of Default.

         Section 3.31 PAID BOND. The Escrow Agent shall notify the Authority
promptly in writing upon the maturity or full prepayment of the Bond.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                    THE LOAN

         Section 4.1 THE LOAN. The Authority agrees, upon the terms and subject
to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to make the Loan to the Borrower for
the purposes set forth in the recitals hereinabove.

         Section 4.2 PAYMENT OF LOAN. The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note.
The Loan to be repaid by the Borrower will be an amount equal to the principal
or applicable redemption price of and interest on the Bond which amount shall
not exceed $4,500,000 plus interest. Except as otherwise provided herein and in
the Note, the Loan shall be repayable by, or on behalf of, the Borrower in
installments that, as to amounts and due dates, correspond to the payments of
the principal or applicable redemption price of and interest on the Bond.

         Section 4.3 SECURITY. The Bond and the Note shall be secured by the
Bond Documents. The Borrower also hereby creates and grants in favor of the
Authority and its assignee a security interest in all funds deposited from time
to time in the Escrow Fund. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a security
agreement for the purposes of creating the security interests granted herein
subject to the provisions of the New Jersey Uniform Commercial Code. Any
accounts receivable or inventory of the Borrower or any government grants
expected to be received by the Borrower or any proceeds from either of the
foregoing are not subject to the lien of this Agreement.

         Section 4.4 INCORPORATION OF TERMS. The other Bond Documents shall be
made subject to all of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement to
the same extent and effect as if this Agreement were fully set forth in and made
a part of the other Bond Documents. This Agreement is made subject to all the
conditions, stipulations, agreements and covenants contained in the other Bond
Documents to the same extent and effect as if the other Bond Documents were
fully set forth herein and made a part hereof. Notwithstanding any of the
foregoing, if any provisions in the other Bond Documents are inconsistent with
this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

         Section 4.5 NO DEFENSE OR SET-OFF. The obligations of the Borrower to
make or cause to be made payment of the Loan shall be absolute and unconditional
without defense or set-off by reason of any default by the Contractors under the
Construction Contracts or by the Authority, the Escrow Agent or the Purchaser
under this Agreement or under any other agreement between the Borrower and the
Authority, the Escrow Agent or the Purchaser, failure to acquire, construct,
reconstruct, rehabilitate, renovate or install the Project, any acts or
circumstances that may constitute failure of consideration, destruction of or
damage to the Project, commercial frustration of purpose, or failure of the
Authority to perform and observe any agreement, whether express or implied, or
any duty, liability or obligation arising out of or connected with this
Agreement, it being the intention of the parties that the payments required of
the Borrower hereunder will be paid in full when due without any delay or
diminution whatsoever. Repayments of the Loan and additional sums required to be
paid by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder shall be received by the
Authority or the Escrow Agent as net sums, and the Borrower

                                      -39-

<PAGE>

agrees to pay or cause to be paid all charges against or that might diminish
such net sums.

         Section 4.6 ASSIGNMENT OF AUTHORITY'S RIGHTS. As security for the
payment of the Bond, the Authority has, simultaneously herewith, assigned to the
Purchaser all the Authority's rights under this Agreement (except the rights of
the Authority under Sections 1.3(h), 1.3(j), 1.3(k), 1.5, 1.6(e), 1.6(j),

6.8 (which is retained exclusively by the Authority), 7.1, 7.5 and 7.9 which are
retained jointly with the Purchaser) and the other Bond Documents, to the extent
set forth therein. Except as otherwise provided herein and in the Bond
Documents, the Authority retains the right, jointly and severally with the
Purchaser, to enforce specifically the provisions contained in the Bond
Documents. The Borrower consents to such assignment and agrees to make or cause
to be made payment of the Loan under Section 4.2 hereof directly to the
Purchaser without defense or set-off by reason of any dispute between or among
the Borrower, the Authority and/or the Purchaser.

         Section 4.7 OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR BORROWER. As a condition precedent
to the issuance of the Bond, the Authority and the Purchaser shall have received
the opinion of counsel for the Borrower addressed to the Authority, Bond Counsel
and the Purchaser and satisfactory in form and substance to Bond Counsel to the
effect that (i) the Bond Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the
Borrower and constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Borrower,
enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms,
except to the extent that the enforceability of the Bond Documents may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting
creditors' rights generally, and (ii) such other matters as Bond Counsel or
Counsel for the Purchaser may reasonably require.

         Section 4.8 OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL. As a condition precedent to the
issuance of the Bond, the Authority and the Purchaser shall have received the
opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that:

                  (i) interest income on the Bond is not includable in gross
income for Federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Code, except for
interest accruing on the Bond during the period the Bond is held by a Person who
is a Substantial User;

                  (ii) interest income on the Bond and any gain from the sale
thereof are exempt from gross income under the New Jersey Gross Income Tax Act
(P.L. 1976, Chapter 47); and

                  (iii) the Bond has been duly authorized and issued under the
provisions of the Resolution and the Act and constitutes a valid, binding and
special obligation of the Authority, enforceable against the Authority in
accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability of the
Bond may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws
affecting creditors' rights generally.

         Section 4.9 OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE ESCROW AGENT. As a condition
precedent to the issuance of the Bond, the Authority shall have received an
opinion of Counsel for the Escrow Agent, dated the date of the Loan, addressed
to the Authority and reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Bond
Counsel, that the Escrow Agent is lawfully empowered, authorized and

                                      -40-

<PAGE>

duly qualified to serve as escrow agent and to perform the provisions hereof and
to accept the trusts contemplated hereby, and that the Escrow Agent has duly
authorized the acceptance of the escrow contemplated hereby.

         Section 4.10 BOND AND OTHER DOCUMENTS. As a condition precedent to the
issuance of the Bond, the Authority shall have received:

         (a) the Bond Documents duly executed by all parties thereto;

         (b) certificates, in form and substance acceptable to the Authority and
the Escrow Agent, evidencing the insurance required to be maintained by this
Bond Agreement;

         (c) the Tax Representation Letter, in form and substance satisfactory
to Bond Counsel; and

         (d) all other documents required by the Authority, the Escrow Agent and
the Purchaser.

         Any certificate signed by an Authorized Borrower Representative and
delivered to the Authority, the Purchaser or the Escrow Agent shall be deemed a
representation or warranty by the Borrower to the Authority, the Purchaser or
the Escrow Agent, as the case may be, as to the statements made therein.

         Section 4.11 PAYMENTS. Payments to be made under this Agreement or the
Note that are stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday under the
laws of the State shall be made on the next succeeding business day of the
State.

         Section 4.12 PREPAYMENT OF NOTE. The Borrower shall have the right to
prepay the Loan to the same extent and on the same terms and conditions as the
Authority has the right to prepay the Bond. In addition, the Purchaser, as
assignee, may apply certain moneys to the prepayment of the Loan as provided for
in this Agreement and the other Bond Documents. The Authority covenants that it
will not make any optional prepayment on the Bond without the consent of the
Borrower; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement, the Bond
or in any Bond Document shall restrict the Authority's right to cancel the Bond
pursuant to Section 6.8 hereof.

                              COVENANTS OF BORROWER

         The Borrower covenants and agrees, so long as this Agreement shall
remain in effect, as follows:

         Section 5.1       PRESERVATION OF BUSINESS AND PROPERTY.

         (a) The Borrower will at all times preserve and maintain its existence,
rights, privileges and franchises, conduct substantially the same line of
business as presently conducted or as contemplated hereby, (provided that it
does not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the bond or prevent the

charges and other costs and expenses arising out of ownership, possession, use
or operation of the Project. The Authority shall have no obligation and makes no
warranties with respect to the condition or operation of the Project.

         (b) The Borrower will not use as a basis for contesting any assessment
or levy of any tax the financing under this Agreement, or the issuance of the
Bond by the Authority, and if any administrative body or court of competent
jurisdiction shall hold for any reason that the Project is exempt from taxation
by reason of the financing under this Agreement or issuance of the Bond by the
Authority or other Authority action in respect thereto, the Borrower covenants
to make payment in lieu of all such taxes in an amount equal to such taxes and,
if applicable, interest and penalties.

the Borrower for which the Borrower has maintained adequate reserves
satisfactory to the Purchaser.

         Section 5.4 CONCERNING THE PROJECT. The Borrower shall operate or cause
the Project to be operated as an authorized project for a purpose and use as
provided for under the Act until the expiration or earlier termination of this
Bond Agreement. The Project is of a character included within the definition of
"project" in the Act. The Borrower will acquire and operate the Project
substantially in the form represented in the Application, and will neither (a)
materially alter the operation of the Project without the prior written consent
of the Authority and the Purchaser, nor (b) cause a change in the use of the
Project such that the Bond would cease to be a "qualified small issue bond"
(within the meaning of Section 144(a) of the Code). Specifically, and without
limiting the foregoing, the Borrower shall not permit the Project to be used in
any manner other than as a "manufacturing facility" within the meaning of
Section 144(a)(12)(C) of the Code.

         Section 5.5 COMPLIANCE WITH CODE AND ARBITRAGE REGULATIONS. (a) The
Borrower shall at all times do and perform all acts and things necessary or
desirable in order to assure that interest paid on the Bond shall, for the
purposes of Federal income taxation, not be includable in the gross income of
the Purchaser and shall remain excludable from such taxation, except in the
event that such Purchaser is a Substantial User. The Borrower shall not direct
the Escrow Agent to make any investment of Gross Proceeds that would result in
the Bond becoming an "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of Section 148 of the
Code. For purposes of this Section 5.5, any and all actions of any Substantial
User shall be deemed to be actions of the Borrower. In addition, any and all
actions to be undertaken by the Borrower or by any other Person as to which the
Authority, pursuant to the terms hereof, has granted its consent or approval in
advance shall be deemed to be the actions of the Borrower or such other Person
(and not the actions of the Authority or the Escrow Agent).

         (b) The Borrower will not cause the Bond to be treated as "federally
guaranteed" obligations within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code (as may
be modified in any applicable rules, rulings, policies, procedures, regulations
or other official statements promulgated or proposed by the Department of the
Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service with respect to "federally guaranteed"
obligations described in Section 149(b) of the Code).

         (c) The Borrower shall not permit at any time or times any of the Gross
Proceeds or any of its funds to be used, directly or indirectly, to acquire any
investment property (within the meaning of Section 148(b)(2) of the Code) the
acquisition of which would cause the Bond to be an "arbitrage bond" for the
purposes of Section 148 of the Code, and it shall comply with the arbitrage
requirements of Treas. Reg. ss.ss.1.148-1 through 1.148-11, as applicable. The
Borrower shall utilize the Bond Proceeds so as to satisfy the reasonable
expectations of the Borrower set forth in the Tax Representation Letter of the
Borrower.

         (d) The Borrower shall use the Bond Proceeds to acquire, construct and
install the Project in the manner and as specifically set forth in the Tax
Representation Letter furnished to Bond Counsel and the Authority. The Borrower
shall not expend the Bond Proceeds on assets other than those listed in the Tax
Representation Letter without the express written consent of Bond Counsel.

         (e) The Borrower hereby covenants that, in connection with complying
with the requirement for payment of the Rebate Amount to the United States of
America with respect to the Bond, the Borrower will take the following actions:

                  (i) Eighteen (18) months after the date of this Bond
Agreement, the Borrower will provide a written certification to the Authority
and the Escrow Agent indicating whether the Borrower complied with the 6-month
exception to the rebate requirement set forth in Section 148(f)(4)(B) of the
Code or the 18-month exception to the rebate requirement set forth in Treasury
Regulation ss.1.148-7(d).

                  (ii) Unless the Borrower has complied with the 6-month
exception or the 18-month exception, the Borrower will retain a Rebate Expert on
or within thirty (30) days before the Initial Rebate Computation Date and on
each Rebate Computation Date thereafter, (A) to compute the Rebate Amount with
respect to the Bond for the period ending on the Initial Rebate Computation
Date, (B) to deliver an opinion to the Authority and the Escrow Agent concerning
its conclusions with respect to the amount (if any) of such Rebate Amount,
together with a written report providing a summary of the calculations relating
thereto, and (C) to deliver an opinion to the Authority and the Escrow Agent
that all of the Gross Proceeds of the Bond (within the meaning of Section 148(f)
of the Code), other than Gross Proceeds of the Bond on deposit in a bona fide
debt service fund (within the meaning of Section 148(f)(4) of the Code), have
been expended on or prior to the Initial Rebate Computation Date. "Rebate
Expert" means any of the following chosen by the Borrower: (1) Bond Counsel, (2)
any nationally recognized accountant, (3) any reputable firm that offers to the
Tax-Exempt Bond industry rebate calculation services and holds itself out as
having expertise in that area, or (4) such other Person as is approved by Bond
Counsel.

                  (iii) In the event the amount in the Escrow Fund is
insufficient to fund the Rebate Fund, the Borrower shall, within ten (10)
business days of receipt of the report furnished by the Rebate Expert pursuant
to subparagraph (ii) above, pay or cause to be paid to the Escrow Agent for
deposit into the Rebate Fund the difference required to fund the Rebate Amount.
If the Borrower fails to make or cause to be made any payment required pursuant
to this subparagraph (iii) when due, the Authority shall have the right, but
shall not be required, to make such payment to the Escrow Agent on behalf of the
Borrower. Any amount advanced by the Authority pursuant to this subparagraph
(iii) shall be added to the moneys owing by the Borrower under this Bond
Agreement.

                  (iv) In the event a Rebate Amount is due, the Borrower will
direct the Escrow Agent to withdraw from the Rebate Fund and pay over to the
United States of America the Rebate Amount with respect to the Bond in
installments as follows: each payment shall be made not later than sixty (60)
days after the current Rebate Computation Date and shall be in an amount that
ensures that 100% of the Rebate Amount with respect to the Bond, as of the
current Rebate Computation Date, will have been paid to the United States of
America.

                  (v) The Borrower acknowledges that the Authority shall have
the right at any time and in the sole and absolute discretion of the Authority
to obtain from the Borrower and the Escrow Agent the information necessary to
determine the amount required to be paid to the United States of America
pursuant to Section 148(f) of the Code. Additionally, the Authority may, with
reasonable cause, (A) review or cause to be reviewed any determination of the
amount to be paid to the United States of America made by or on behalf of the
Borrower and (B) make or retain a Rebate Expert to make the determination of the
amount to be paid to the United States of America. The Borrower hereby agrees to
be bound by any such review or determination, absent manifest error, to pay the
costs of such review, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel or a Rebate Expert retained by the Authority, and to pay to
the Escrow Agent any additional amounts for deposit in the Rebate Fund required
as the result of any such review or determination.

                  (vi) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5.5(e) to
the contrary, the Borrower shall be liable, and shall indemnify and hold the
Authority and the Escrow Agent harmless against any liability, for payments due
to the United States of America pursuant to Section 148(f) of the Code. Further,
the Borrower specifically agrees that neither the Authority nor the Escrow Agent
shall be held liable, or in any way responsible, and the Borrower shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Authority and the Escrow Agent against any
liability, for any mistake or error in the filing of the payment or the
determination of the amount due to the United States of America or for any
consequences resulting from any such mistake or error. The provisions of this
subparagraph (vi) shall survive termination of this Bond Agreement.

                  (vii) The Authority, the Escrow Agent and the Borrower
acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 5.5(e) are intended to comply
with Section 148(f) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and
if, as a result of a change in such section of the Code or the regulations
promulgated thereunder or in the interpretation thereof, a change in this
Section 5.5(e) shall be permitted or necessary to assure continued compliance
with Section 148(f) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, then
with written notice to the Authority and the Escrow Agent, the Borrower shall be
empowered to amend this Section 5.5(e) and the Authority may require, by written
notice to the Borrower and the Escrow Agent, the Borrower to amend this Section
5.5(e) to the extent necessary or desirable to assure compliance with the
provisions of Section 148 of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder; PROVIDED, that either the Authority or the Escrow Agent shall
require, prior to any such amendment becoming effective, at the sole cost and
expense of the Borrower, an opinion of Bond Counsel satisfactory to the
Authority to the effect that either (A) such amendment is required to maintain
the exclusion from gross income under Section 103 of the Code of interest paid
and payable on the Bond or (B) such amendment shall not adversely affect the
exclusion from gross income under Section 103 of the Code of the interest paid
or payable on the Bond.

         (f) The Borrower shall direct the Escrow Agent in writing to pay to the
United States on behalf of the Authority an amount equal to at least ninety

Amount as of the Final Rebate Computation Date no later than the date sixty (60)
days

                                      -46-

Date, the Escrow Agent shall, at the written direction of the Borrower, transfer
from the Escrow Fund to the Rebate Fund an amount equal to the amount of Rebate
Amount due to the United States on such rebate payment date. If there is not a
sufficient amount in the Escrow Fund for such transfer, the Borrower shall pay
to the Escrow Agent from other sources, on or prior to such Rebate Computation
Date, the amount necessary to make up such deficiency. Each rebate payment shall
be treated as paid when filed with the Internal Revenue Service Center, Ogden,
Utah. The rebate payment shall be accompanied by Form 8038-T, which shall be
completed by the Borrower and filed by the Escrow Agent as aforesaid.

Environmental Protection.

         The Borrower shall give immediate written notice to the Authority, the

income of the Purchaser for purposes of Federal income taxation, except if such
Purchaser is a Substantial User; or that would impair the ability of the
Borrower to operate the Project or cause the Project not to be operated as an

settlement of any such action effected without the Borrower's consent, but if
settled with the consent of the Borrower or if there is a final judgment for the
claimant on any such action, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability by reason of such
settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary that may limit recourse to the Borrower or may otherwise purport to
limit the Borrower's liability, the provisions of this Section 5.22 shall
control the Borrower's obligations and shall survive repayment of the Bond.

         Section 5.23 DAMAGE TO OR CONDEMNATION OF PROJECT. In the event of
damage, destruction or condemnation of all or part of the Project, the Borrower
shall notify the Authority, the Escrow Agent and the Purchaser not later than
five (5) business days after the occurrence of such event. Damage to or
destruction or condemnation of all or a portion of the Project shall not
terminate this Agreement or cause any abatement of or reduction in the payments
to be made by the Borrower or otherwise affect the respective obligations of the
Authority or the Borrower, except as set forth in this Agreement. In the event
of damage or destruction, the net proceeds of any insurance policies required to
be maintained under Section 5.2 hereof, in an amount equal to the greater of the
amounts necessary to effect the election of the Borrower pursuant to clause (i)
or (ii) of this sentence, shall be paid to the Escrow Agent and deposited into
the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund, and if no Event of Default hereunder
has occurred and is continuing, at the election of the Purchaser, such net
proceeds shall be (i) applied to the redemption of the Bond, first to the
payment of accrued and unpaid interest and second against payment of principal
or (ii) applied to restore or replace the Project to substantially its condition
immediately prior to such event or to a condition of at least equivalent value;
provided, however, that if the cost of restoration or replacement exceeds the
amount of such proceeds, the Borrower shall deposit the excess in the Proceeds
Account of the Escrow Fund to be applied for such restoration or replacement. In
the event of condemnation, the net condemnation proceeds shall be paid to the
Escrow Agent and deposited into the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund, and if
no Event of Default hereunder has occurred and is continuing, at the election of
the Purchaser, such net condemnation proceeds shall be (i) applied to the
redemption of the Bond, first to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and
second against payment of principal or (ii) applied to replace the Project to
substantially its condition immediately prior to such event or to a condition of
at least equivalent value; provided, however, that if the cost of replacement
exceeds the amount of such proceeds, the Borrower shall deposit the excess in
the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund to be applied for such replacement. The
Purchaser shall notify the Escrow Agent of its election within forty-five (45)
days of its receipt of notice of such damage, destruction or condemnation. If
the Authority or the Borrower is the payee, or one of the payees, of any check
or other instrument representing payment of any insurance or condemnation
proceeds referred to in this Section 5.23, the Authority or the Borrower will
endorse the same to the order of the Escrow Agent and deliver the same to the
Escrow Agent; and if the Authority or the Borrower fails to do so, the Authority
and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorize any officer or employee of the
Escrow Agent to endorse and deliver the same as the Authority's or the
Borrower's attorney-in-fact.

         The Borrower and the Purchaser shall cooperate and consult with each
other in all matters

                                      -51-

<PAGE>

pertaining to the settlement or adjudication of any such insurance claims,
condemnation proceedings or pertaining to the settlement, compromising or
arbitration of any claim on account of any damage, destruction or condemnation
of the Project. In no event shall the Borrower voluntarily settle, or consent to
the settlement of, any insurance claim or condemnation proceeding with respect
to the Project without the written consent of the Purchaser.

         Section 5.24 FINANCING STATEMENTS. The Borrower shall, at the
Borrower's own expense, cause Financing Statements under the New Jersey Uniform
Commercial Code to be filed in the places required by law in order to perfect
the security interests created or contemplated by Section 4.3 hereof and the
Security Agreement naming the Authority as secured party and the Purchaser as
assignee, including Financing Statements subordinating any other security
interest in the Project Equipment and the Existing Equipment to Purchaser's
security interest. From time to time, as reasonably requested by the Purchaser,
but not more often than once each year, the Borrower shall furnish to the
Purchaser an opinion of counsel setting forth what actions, if any, should be
taken by the Borrower or the Purchaser to preserve said security interests and
the priority thereof in favor of the Purchaser and the right, title and interest
of the Purchaser in and to the trust estate created under this Agreement. The
Borrower shall execute and file, or cause to be executed and filed, all further
instruments as shall be required by law to preserve such security interests and
the priority thereof, and it shall furnish satisfactory evidence to the
Authority and the Purchaser of the filing and refiling of such instruments.

         Section 5.25 NOTICE AND CERTIFICATION WITH RESPECT TO BANKRUPTCY
PROCEEDINGS. The Borrower shall promptly notify the Authority, the Purchaser and
the Escrow Agent in writing of the occurrence of any of the following events and
shall keep the Authority, the Purchaser and the Escrow Agent informed of the
status of any petition in bankruptcy filed (or bankruptcy or similar proceeding
otherwise commenced) against the Borrower: (i) application by the Borrower for,
or consent by it to, the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or
custodian or the like of such party or of its property, (ii) the fact that it is
generally not paying its debts as they become due, (iii) general assignment by
the Borrower for the benefit of creditors, (iv) adjudication of the Borrower as
insolvent or the entry of an order for relief under the United States Bankruptcy
Code, (v) commencement by the Borrower of a voluntary case under the United
States Bankruptcy Code or filing by it of a voluntary petition or answer seeking
its reorganization, an arrangement with creditors of the Borrower, an order for
relief or seeking to take advantage of any insolvency law or filing by the
Borrower of an answer admitting the material allegations of an insolvency
proceeding, or action by the Borrower for the purpose of effecting any of the
foregoing, or (vi) if without the application, approval or consent of the
Borrower, a proceeding shall be instituted in any court of competent
jurisdiction, under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
or relief of debtors, seeking in respect of such party an order for relief or an
adjudication in bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution, winding up,
liquidation, a composition or arrangement with creditors, a readjustment of
debts, the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or custodian or the
like of the Borrower or of all or any substantial part of its respective assets,
or other relief in respect thereof under any bankruptcy or insolvency law.

         Section 6.2 PURCHASER'S REMEDIES. Upon receipt by the Purchaser of
notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, and at any time
thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default, the Purchaser, as
assignee of the Authority, may, by written notice to the Authority and the
Borrower, declare the entire unpaid principal amount of the Bond and the Note to
be due and payable forthwith, to the extent and in accordance with this
Agreement, whereupon such amount shall become forthwith due and payable, both as
to principal and interest, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice
of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein
or elsewhere to the contrary notwithstanding, and thereupon the Purchaser may
take one or more of the following remedial steps in such order and sequence as
the Purchaser, in its sole judgment, may determine:

                  (a) take any action at law or in equity to collect the
         payments then due and thereafter to become due under this Agreement or
         to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or
         covenant of the Borrower under this Agreement; or

<PAGE>

under the Bond Documents; or

                  (c) exercise any and all rights and remedies conferred upon
         secured parties by the State Uniform Commercial Code and other
         applicable laws.

         If the Purchaser shall have proceeded to enforce its rights under this
Agreement and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any
reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Purchaser, then the
Borrower and the Purchaser shall be restored respectively to their several
positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the
Borrower and the Purchaser shall continue as though no such proceedings had
taken place.

         Section 6.3 ADDITIONAL REMEDIES OF AUTHORITY. In addition to the above
remedies, if the Borrower commits a breach or threatens to commit a breach of
this Bond Agreement, the Authority shall have the right and remedy, without
posting bond or other security, to have the provisions of this Bond Agreement
specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, it being
acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach will cause
irreparable injury to the Authority and that money damages will not provide an
adequate remedy therefor.

         Section 6.4 NO REMEDY EXCLUSIVE. No remedy herein conferred or reserved
to the Authority or the Purchaser is intended to be exclusive of any other
available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Bond Agreement
or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or
omission to exercise any right or power occurring upon any default shall impair
any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any
such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be
deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Authority or the Purchaser to exercise
any remedy reserved to either of them in this Article VI, it shall not be
necessary to give notice other than such notice as may be required in this
Article VI.

         Section 6.5 AGREEMENT TO PAY ATTORNEYS' FEES AND EXPENSES. In the event
the Borrower should default under any of the provisions of this Bond Agreement,
and either the Authority or the Purchaser shall require and employ attorneys or
incur other expenses for the collection of payments due or to become due or for
the enforcement, performance or observance of any obligation or agreement on the
part of the Borrower herein contained, the Borrower agrees that it will, on
demand therefor, pay to the Authority and the Purchaser the reasonable fees of
such attorneys and such other expenses so incurred by the Authority or the
Purchaser or both, whether or not suit be brought.

         Section 6.6 NO ADDITIONAL WAIVER IMPLIED BY ONE WAIVER. In the event
any agreement contained in this Bond Agreement should be breached by any party
and thereafter waived by any other party, such waiver shall be limited to the
particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach
hereunder.

         Section 6.7 PAYMENT OF LOAN ON EVENT OF DEFAULT; SUIT THEREFOR. (a) The
Borrower covenants that in case it shall fail to pay or cause to be paid any sum
payable by or on behalf of

                                      -58-

<PAGE>

the Borrower under Section 4.2 hereof as and when the same shall become due and
payable, whether at maturity or by acceleration or otherwise, then, the Borrower
will pay to the Purchaser the whole amount of the Loan that shall then have
become due and payable under this Agreement; and, in addition thereto, such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses
of collection, including the Purchaser's agents and counsel, and any reasonable
expenses or liabilities incurred by the Authority or the Purchaser. In case the
Borrower shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the
Purchaser shall be entitled and empowered to institute any actions or
proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and
unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final
decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Borrower
and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Borrower
the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

         (b) In case there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or
for the reorganization of the Borrower under the Federal bankruptcy laws or any
other applicable law, or in case a receiver or trustee shall have been appointed
for the benefit of the creditors or the property of the Borrower, the Purchaser
shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or
otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of the Loan,
including interest owing and unpaid in respect thereof, and, in case of any
judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents
as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Purchaser
allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Borrower, its creditors or
its property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction
of its charges and expenses. Any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or
reorganization is hereby authorized to make such payments to the Authority or
the Purchaser, and to pay to the Authority or the Purchaser any amount due it
for reasonable compensation and expenses, including counsel fees incurred by it
up to the date of such distribution.

         Section 6.8 EVENT OF CANCELLATION. (a) The occurrence of an Event of
Default as set forth in Section 6.1(b) or 6.1(h) hereof shall constitute an
Event of Cancellation hereunder, and, at any time thereafter during the
continuance of such Event of Cancellation, the Authority may, by written notice,
direct the Purchaser to call and cancel the Bond. The Purchaser and any
assignees and the Borrower hereby expressly agree that the Bond may be called
and canceled by the Authority in the manner provided above, and upon the date
specified in the notice from the Authority (the "Cancellation Date"), which
shall be at least thirty (30) and no more than sixty (60) days after the giving
of such notice, the Bond will be called and canceled and the Purchaser may, at
its option, declare the obligation evidenced by the Note immediately due and
payable. The Purchaser will deliver the Bond to the Authority for cancellation
upon the Cancellation Date, but even if such delivery does not occur, the Bond
will be considered canceled and of no further force or effect on the
Cancellation Date.

         (b) Upon the Cancellation Date, the Note will evidence the indebtedness
from the Borrower to the Purchaser, and, in the event the Note is not
accelerated by the Purchaser as hereinabove provided, all of the terms of the
Note will control the obligations of the Borrower to the Purchaser under the
Note. The Authority will no longer be a party to the transaction and shall have
no further rights with respect thereto except any right to fees and
indemnification and

                                      -59-

<PAGE>

shall be released of any and all debts, liabilities and obligations to any party
under this Agreement, the Bond or any other Bond Document. The Authority and the
Purchaser shall execute and deliver to each other such other documents and
agreements as the other may reasonably request in order to evidence the
cancellation of the Bond and the withdrawal of the Authority from the
transaction.

         (c) Upon cancellation of the Bond pursuant to the provisions hereof,
the Authority hereby agrees that the Purchaser shall automatically be vested
with all of the Authority's right, title and interest in and to the Bond
Documents, except as expressly reserved. Any amounts remaining in the Escrow
Fund on the Cancellation Date after deduction of amounts that may be due the
Authority pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall thereby be assigned to
the Purchaser.

         (d) In the event that there is a dispute among any of the parties
concerning the right of the Authority to cancel the Bond pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 6.8, the Borrower shall nevertheless comply with the
terms of Note as hereinabove amended and make all payments required thereunder
from and after the Cancellation Date directly to the Purchaser. If a court of
competent jurisdiction determines finally that the Authority's attempted
cancellation of the Bond violated the terms of this Agreement, the Bond will be
reinstated in accordance with the final order of the court, but until such final
order is made, the Borrower will continue to comply with the terms of the Note
as hereinabove amended. Any overpayment by the Borrower will be returned to it
by the Purchaser upon reinstatement of the Bond.

DATED DATE:                MATURITY DATE:                     INTEREST RATE:
June 1, 2000                June  , 2008                           5.85%

         NEW JERSEY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (herein called the
"Authority"), a public body corporate and politic constituting an
instrumentality of the State of New Jersey (the "State"), acknowledges itself
indebted and for value received hereby promises to pay, in any coin or currency
of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for
the payment of public and private debts, to FLEET CAPTIAL CORPORATION or
registered assigns, the principal sum of FOUR MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
Dollars ($4,500,000) together with interest thereon at the rate of 5.85% per
annum, subject to adjustment as provided herein, in ninety-six consecutive equal
monthly installments of $58,808.31, payable on the first day of each month,
commencing July 1, 2000 and continuing thereafter until and including June 1,
2008, at which time the final installment in the amount of the unpaid principal
balance, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and any other sums due
will be paid.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an increase or decrease
in the Corporate Tax Rate (as hereinafter defined) enacted or effective after
the date of original issuance of the Bond, the interest rate set forth herein
shall be decreased (in the case of an increase in said Corporate Tax Rate) or
increased (in the case of a decrease in said Corporate Tax Rate) to the Adjusted
Tax Exempt Rate (as hereinafter defined), effective thirty (30) days after
receipt of written notice by the Purchaser to the Borrower of such change in the
corporate Tax Rate. For purposes hereof, (i) "Adjusted Tax Exempt Rate" shall
mean the product of (x) the interest rate set forth in the above paragraph times
(y) a fraction (expressed as a decimal) the numerator of which is the number one
minus the Corporate Tax Rate in effect following the change in such

                                       A-1

<PAGE>

rate referred to in the preceding sentence and the denominator of which is the
number one minus the Corporate Tax Rate in effect on the date of original
issuance of the Bond; and (ii) "Corporate Tax Rate" shall mean the highest
marginal statutory rate of Federal income tax imposed on corporations.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any payment has not been
made hereunder within five (5) days of the due date, such payment shall bear
interest thereafter at the otherwise applicable rate of interest on this Bond,
plus two percent (2%)

         The determination of the interest rate or any adjustments to the
interest rate as contemplated by the foregoing paragraphs shall be conclusive
and binding upon the Purchaser, the Authority and the Borrower.

         In the event of a Determination of Taxability, the interest payable
upon this Bond shall be increased effective as of the date of the Determination
of Taxability to a rate equal to the Purchaser's cost of funds plus two percent
(2%).

         Each of said monthly payments shall be applied first in payment of
accrued and unpaid interest and the balance to the payment of unpaid principal.

         Said sums shall be paid solely from the revenues or other moneys
derived from the loan made with respect to the Project hereinafter referred to
or any other revenues pledged therefor under the Bond Agreement hereinafter
referred to. This Bond, as to principal, interest and premium, if any, when due,
will be payable at the offices of Fleet Capital Corporation, Providence, Rhode
Island (the "Purchaser").

         This Bond is the duly authorized bond designated as the New Jersey
Economic Development Authority Economic Development Bond (Foilmark, Inc.
Project) issued in the principal amount of $4,500,000 (this "Bond"). This Bond
has been issued under and by virtue of the New Jersey Economic Development
Authority Act, constituting Chapter 80 of the Pamphlet Laws of 1974 of the State
and the acts amendatory thereof and supplemental thereto (the "Act"), and by
virtue of resolutions duly adopted by the Authority on March 14, 2000 and May 9,
2000 (collectively, the "Resolution"), and this Bond is secured under a Bond
Agreement dated June 1, 2000 by and among the Authority, Foilmark, Inc. (the
"Borrower"), the Purchaser and Chittenden Trust Company, as escrow agent (the
"Escrow Agent"), as the same has been or may be amended, modified or
supplemented from time to time by supplemental agreements (being herein
collectively called the "Bond Agreement"), for the purpose of financing the
Project (as defined in the Bond Agreement).

         This Bond is further secured pursuant to the terms of (i) the
promissory note of the Company to the Authority, dated June 1, 2000, as evidence
of the obligations of the Borrower pursuant to the Bond Agreement, (ii) a
Security Agreement, dated June 1, 2000, from the Company to the Authority and
the Purchaser, (iii) six (6) Guaranty Agreements from HoloPak Technologies,
Inc., Foilmark Manufacturing Corporation, 2945-5649 Quebec, Inc., Transfer Print
Foils, Inc., Alubec Industries, Inc. and Foilmark Foreign Sales Corporation,
respectively, each dated June 1, 2000 to the Authority and the Purchaser, and

         Reference is hereby made to the Resolution and the Bond Agreement,
copies of which are on file at the office of the Escrow Agent, for a description
of the provisions, among others, with respect to the terms upon which this Bond
is issued, the nature and extent of the security for this Bond, the rights,
duties and obligations of the Authority, the Borrower, the Purchaser and the
Escrow Agent, and the modification or amendment of the Bond Agreement, to all of
which the holder of this Bond hereto assents by acceptance of this Bond.
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned
to such terms in the Bond Agreement.

         This Bond is subject to cancellation as provided in Section 6.8 of the
Bond Agreement upon the following events:

         (a) Failure or refusal by the Borrower to comply with any of its
covenants, conditions or agreements under the Bond Agreement (with the exception
of the failure to make payments due under the Note), and such failure or refusal
shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof
has been given to the Borrower by the Purchaser, the Escrow Agent or the
Authority; or

         (b) Any representation, covenant or warranty made by the Borrower in
any Bond Document shall prove to have been false, incorrect or misleading in any
material respect as of the date made, or failure by the Borrower to observe any
such covenant.

         This Bond may be redeemed or prepaid in whole or in part, at the option
of the Borrower, at any time upon three (3) business days prior written notice
to the Purchaser, the Escrow Agent and the Authority. Any prepayment made by the
Borrower shall be accompanied by the payment to the Purchaser of an additional
sum (the "Prepayment Consideration") equal to (a) two and twenty-five hundredths
per centum (2.25%) of the principal amount prepaid during the first year; (b)
one and seventy-five hundredths per centum (1.75%) of the principal amount
prepaid during the second year; (c) one and twenty-five hundredths per centum
(1.25%) of the principal amount prepaid during the third year; (d) seventy-five
hundredths per centum (0.75%) of the principal amount prepaid during the fourth
year; (e) fifty hundredths per centum (0.50%) of the principal amount prepaid
during the fifth year; and (f) twenty-five hundredths per centum (0.25%) of the
principal amount prepaid during the sixth year. There shall be no Prepayment
Consideration due for any principal amount prepaid by the Borrower during the
seventh or eighth years.

         This Bond shall be redeemed in whole or in part pursuant to Section
3.11 of the Bond Agreement.

         In the event that it is finally determined by the Internal Revenue
Service or a court of competent jurisdiction that the interest on this Bond is
includable in part or in full for the purposes of Federal income taxation in the
gross income of the recipients thereof (except if the reason for such inclusion
is because the recipient is a "substantial user" or "related person", as
provided in Section 144(a)(3) or Section 147(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended) (a "Determination of Taxability"), then this Bond shall be
subject to optional redemption at the direction of the Purchaser in whole at a
redemption price equal to 103%

                                       A-3

of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of redemption,
the date of redemption to be determined by the Purchaser.

         The Borrower agrees to reimburse and fully indemnify and hold harmless
the Authority and the Purchaser from and against any and all liability, damage,
loss, cost or expense (including attorneys' fees) which the Authority or the
Purchaser may incur as the result of a Determination of Taxability, and further
agrees to furnish upon demand a bond, letter of credit or other form of security
as the Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time to secure the
Authority's obligations under the Bond, including without limitation any
potential increases in interest, whether prospective or retroactive, and any
potential taxes, penalties or related interest.

         The Act provides that neither the members of the Authority nor any
person executing this Bond for the Authority shall be liable personally on this
Bond by reason of the issuance thereof. No recourse shall be had for the payment
of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on this Bond or for any claim
based thereon, against any past, present or future official, officer or employee
of the Authority or any successor corporation, as such, either directly or
through the Authority, or any successor corporation, under any rule of law or
equity, statute or constitution, or by the enforcement of any assessment or
penalty or otherwise; and all such liability of any such official, officer or
employee, as such, is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of and
in consideration for the issuance of this Bond.

         In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Bond Agreement, shall
have occurred, the principal of all Bonds then Outstanding under the Bond
Agreement may become due and payable before their maturity dates.

         It is hereby certified and recited that all conditions, acts and things
required by the Constitution or statutes of the State or the Bond Agreement to
exist, to have happened or to have been performed precedent to or in the
issuance of this Bond, exist, have happened and have been performed and that the
issuance of this Bond is within every debt and other limit prescribed by said
constitution or statutes.

                           therein are false or misleading, and (b) the Borrower

Re:      New Jersey Economic Development Authority Economic Development Bond
         (Foilmark, Inc. Project)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                  ______________ (the "Purchaser"), is purchasing $_________
principal amount of the referenced Bond issued by the New Jersey Economic
Development Authority (the "Authority"). In connection with the sale of the Bond
from __________ to the undersigned (the "Purchaser"), the Authority requires
that the Purchaser make certain representations. Accordingly, the Purchaser
represents and warrants to the Authority as follows:

         1. The Purchaser is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of
Regulation D of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and a
"qualified institutional buyer" within the meaning of Rule 144A under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

         2. The Purchaser acknowledges that it has been informed by the
Authority that the Bond has not been registered under the Securities Act or any
state securities law, that the Bond is being offered and sold by the Authority
without such registration in reliance upon exemptions therein for private
offerings to institutional or other accredited investors.

         3. The Purchaser is purchasing the Bond for its own account with no
present intention of distributing the Bond, but without prejudice, however, to
its right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the
Bond under a registration under the Securities Act or under an exemption from
such registration available under such Act. The Purchaser will require each
subsequent purchaser of the Bond to provide a letter to the Authority in
substantially the same form as this letter.

         4. The Purchaser hereby confirms that it has performed such
investigation as the Purchaser has considered necessary or appropriate of the
borrower to whom the proceeds of the Bond were loaned by the Authority and it is
not relying upon any actions or statements of the

                                      E-1

<PAGE>

Authority in connection with such investigation or its evaluation of the risks
and merits of the borrower or the Bond.

         5. The Purchaser has not relied on the Authority or any member, officer
or employee of the Authority (collectively, the "Authority Parties") with
respect to any information concerning the borrower or the Bond. The Purchaser
further acknowledges and confirms that it has not received from any of the
Authority Parties any representations or assurances with respect to the borrower
or the Bond. The Purchaser hereby waives any claims, actions or causes of action
which the Purchaser may have now or in the future against any of the Authority
Parties arising from or relating to any disclosure or non-disclosure with
respect to the borrower or the Bond.

                  The above representations are provided solely for the benefit
of the Authority Parties and may not be relied upon by or furnished to any other
person without our prior written consent. Without limiting the foregoing, the
execution of this letter by the Purchaser is not intended in any manner to alter
or reduce the disclosure duties to the Purchaser under applicable federal and
state securities laws of any other party involved in the issuance or sale of the
Bond.

                               SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

                         ENCHIRA BIOTECHNOLOGY CORPORATION

                                  UP TO 150 UNITS

This Subscription Agreement (this "Subscription Agreement" or the "Agreement")
is made between Enchira  Biotechnology Corporation, a Delaware corporation in
the development stage, (the "Company"), and the undersigned prospective
purchaser who is subscribing hereby for units (the "Units").  The Company
desires to offer and sell (the "Offering") up to 150 Units (the "Offering
Amount"), with each Unit  consisting of (i) a number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock")
(rounded to the nearest whole share, with one-half (0.5) of one share, or
greater fraction thereof, being rounded upward), determined by dividing one
hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) by the number determined by multiplying

National Market for the five trading days prior to the date of this Agreement
(the "Closing Price") and (B) 1.0375, and (ii) a warrant (collectively, the
"Warrants") to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to thirty
percent (30%) of the shares of Common Stock included in such Unit, such
warrants to be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the
second anniversary of the date of issuance at an exercise price per share (the
"Exercise Price") equal to the number determined by multiplying (A) the
Closing Price and (B) 120% (the Common Stock, the Warrants, and the Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants (the "Warrant Shares") are
sometimes herein collectively referred to as the "Securities") at a purchase
price of $100,000 per Unit (the "Offering Price"). The Company may hold a

A.     SUBSCRIPTION

       (1)    The undersigned hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to
              purchase the number of Units indicated on the signature page
              hereto at a purchase price of $100,000 per Unit. Fractions of a
              Unit may be purchased, but the minimum subscription is one Unit
              unless the Company in its sole discretion, elects to accept
              subscriptions for less than one Unit.  The undersigned encloses
              herewith a check payable to "Enchira Biotechnology Corporation--
              Escrow Account"  or has completed the wire transfer of the full
              amount of the purchase price of the Units for which the
              undersigned is subscribing (the "Payment").  The undersigned
              hereby acknowledges that the actual number of Units which the
              undersigned will receive will be equal to the amount of the
              undersigned's subscription divided by the Purchase Price for the
              Units as set forth in the Term Sheet and herein.

       (2)    The undersigned understands that all payments of the subscription
              amount provided in Paragraph (1) above shall be delivered to
              either The Trout Group, LLC (the "Trout Group") or Ten Peaks
              Capital Corp. ("Ten Peaks" and each referred to herein as a
              "Placement Agent" and together as the "Placement Agents") or the
              Company, and, thereafter, such payment will be deposited as soon
              as practicable for the undersigned's benefit in a non-interest
              bearing escrow account.  The payment will be returned promptly,
              without interest, if the undersigned's subscription is rejected as
              a result of the Company not receiving the Minimum Offering Amount.
              The Placement Agents and the Company expect to hold a closing of
              the Offering (the "Closing") at any time after subscriptions for
              the Minimum Offering Amount have been accepted.  Upon receipt by
              the Company of the requisite payment for all Units to be purchased
              by the subscribers whose subscriptions are accepted (each, a
              "Purchaser" and, collectively, the "Purchasers") at the Closing,
              the Units so purchased will be issued in the name of each
              Purchaser, and the name of such Purchaser will be registered on
              the books of the Company as the record owner of such Units.  The
              Company will issue to each Purchaser stock certificates
              representing the shares of Common Stock contained in the Units
              purchased.  The Shares may not be transferred prior to the
              Closing.

       (3)    The undersigned hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Term
              Sheet, and hereby agrees to be bound hereby upon the (i) execution
              and delivery to the Company, in care of either of the Placement
              Agents, of the signature page to this Subscription Agreement, and
              (ii) acceptance at the Closing by the Company of the undersigned's
              subscription (the "Subscription").

       (4)    The undersigned agrees that the Company may, in its sole and
              absolute discretion, reduce the undersigned's subscription to any
              amount of Units that in the aggregate does not exceed the amount
              of Units hereby applied for without any prior notice to or further
              consent by the undersigned.

B.     REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASER

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
Company and the Placement Agent as follows:

                                     -2-

<PAGE>

       (1)    The undersigned has been furnished with and has carefully read the
              Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
              31, 1999 (the "1999 Form 10-K"), the Company's quarterly report on
              Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 (the "2Q 2000 Form
              10-Q") and the Company's proxy statement for its 2000 annual
              meeting of stockholders (the "2000 Proxy Statement" and together
              with the 1999 Form 10-K and 2Q 2000 Form 10-Q, the "SEC Reports"),
              the Term Sheet and this Agreement (collectively referred to herein
              as the "Offering Documents"), and is familiar with and understands
              the terms of the Offering.  The undersigned has carefully
              considered and has, to the extent the undersigned believes such
              discussion necessary, discussed with the undersigned's
              professional legal, tax, accounting and financial advisors the
              suitability of an investment in the Units for the undersigned's
              particular tax and financial situation and has determined that the
              Units being subscribed for by the undersigned are a suitable
              investment for the undersigned.

       (2)    The undersigned acknowledges that (i) the undersigned has had the
              right to request copies of any documents, records, and books
              pertaining to this investment and (ii) any such documents, records
              and books which the undersigned requested have been made available
              for inspection by the undersigned, the undersigned's attorney,
              accountant or adviser(s).

       (3)    The undersigned and/or the undersigned's adviser(s) has/have had a
              reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers
              from a person or persons acting on behalf of the Company
              concerning the Offering and all such questions have been answered
              to the full satisfaction of the undersigned.

       (4)    The undersigned is not subscribing for Units as a result of or
              subsequent to any advertisement, article, notice or other
              communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar
              media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any
              seminar or meeting.

       (5)    If the undersigned is a natural person, the undersigned has
              reached the age of majority in the state in which the undersigned
              resides, has adequate means of providing for the undersigned's
              current financial needs and contingencies, is able to bear the
              substantial economic risks of an investment in the Units for an
              indefinite period of time, has no need for liquidity in such
              investment and, at the present time, could afford a complete loss
              of such investment.

       (6)    The undersigned or the undersigned's purchaser representative, as
              the case may be, has had such knowledge and experience in
              financial, tax and business matters so as to enable the
              undersigned to utilize the information made available to the
              undersigned in connection with the Offering to evaluate the merits
              and risks of an investment in the Units and to make an informed
              investment decision with respect thereto.

       (7)    The undersigned will not sell or otherwise transfer the Units
              without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
              (the "Securities Act"), or applicable state securities laws or an
              exemption therefrom.  None of the Securities contained in the
              Units have been

                                     -3-

<PAGE>

              registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws
              of any state.  The undersigned represents that the undersigned
              is purchasing the Units for the undersigned's own account, for
              investment and not with a view toward resale or distribution.
              The undersigned has not offered or sold the Units being acquired
              nor does the undersigned have any present intention of selling,
              distributing or otherwise disposing of such Units either
              currently or after the passage of a fixed or determinable period
              of time or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any
              predetermined event or circumstances in violation of the
              Securities Act.  The undersigned is aware that there is
              currently no market for the Units.  The undersigned is aware
              that an exemption from the registration requirements of the
              Securities Act pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated thereunder is
              not presently available; and the Company has no obligation to
              register the Securities contained in the Units subscribed for
              hereunder, except as provided in Paragraph D hereof, or to make
              available an exemption from the registration requirements
              pursuant to such Rule 144 or any successor rule for resale of
              the Units.

       (8)    The undersigned recognizes that an investment in the Units
              involves substantial risks, including loss of the entire amount of
              such investment.  Further, the undersigned has carefully read and
              considered the matters set forth in Note 1 to the Company's
              financial statements in the 2Q 2000 Form 10-Q, "Management's
              Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
              Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the 2Q 2000 Form
              10-Q and "Item 1. Business--Risk Factors" in the 1999 Form 10-K,
              and has taken full cognizance of and understands all of the risks
              related to the purchase of the Units, including the risk of the
              Company's current arbitration proceeding with Maxygen, Inc.
              ("Maxygen").  On April 27, 2000, the Company received notice from
              Maxygen that it had elected to seek arbitration under the License
              and Development Agreement dated May 19, 1997 between the Company
              and Maxygen. Maxygen claims that the Company used Maxygen's
              confidential information which they allege was provided to the
              Company under the Agreement to develop its own RACHITT-TM-
              directed evolution technology. While the Company believes that
              there is no merit to the allegations brought against it by
              Maxygen, the Company cannot assure that its defense will be
              substantially successful, if at all. If the Company is not
              successful, its business could be materially and adversely
              affected and the Company could be required to enter into cross
              license agreements, pay a substantial amount in damages or
              otherwise have its proprietary rights in directed evolution
              technology adversely affected.

       (9)    The undersigned acknowledges that the certificate representing the
              Securities contained in the Units shall be stamped or otherwise
              imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form:

              "The Securities represented hereby have not been registered under
              the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities
              laws and neither the Securities nor any interest therein may be
              offered, sold, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of
              except pursuant to an effective registration under such act  or
              an exemption therefrom, which, in the opinion of counsel for the
              holder, which counsel and opinion are reasonably satisfactory to
              counsel for this corporation, is available."

       (10)   If this Subscription Agreement is executed and delivered on behalf
              of a partnership, corporation, trust or estate:  (i) such
              partnership, corporation, trust or estate has the full legal right
              and power and all authority and approval required (a) to execute
              and deliver, or

                                     -4-

<PAGE>

              authorize execution and delivery of, this Subscription Agreement
              and all other instruments executed and delivered by or on behalf
              of such partnership, corporation, trust or estate in connection
              with the purchase of its Units, and (b) to purchase and hold
              such Units; (ii) the signature of the party signing on behalf of
              such partnership, corporation, trust or estate is binding upon
              such partnership, corporation, trust or estate; and (iii) such
              partnership, corporation or trust has not been formed for the
              specific purpose of acquiring such Units, unless each beneficial
              owner of such entity is qualified as an accredited investor
              within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated
              under the Securities Act and has submitted information
              substantiating such individual qualification.

       (11)   If the undersigned is a retirement plan or is investing on behalf
              of a retirement plan, the undersigned acknowledges that an
              investment in the Units poses additional risks including the
              inability to use losses generated by an investment in the Units to
              offset taxable income.

       (12)   The information contained in the Questionnaire delivered by the
              undersigned in connection with this Agreement (the
              "Questionnaire") is complete and accurate in all respects.  The
              undersigned shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the
              Placement Agents and each officer, director or control person of
              any such entity, who is or may be a party or is or may be
              threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
              completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
              administrative or investigative, by reason of or arising from any
              actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts or

              and 4,214,650 shares of undesignated preferred stock, none of
              which shares are issued and outstanding.  All outstanding shares
              of Common Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are
              duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable,
              free of any liens or encumbrances and are not subject to
              preemptive rights.  As of August 15, 2000, the Company had
              reserved 1,690,147 shares of Common Stock for issuance to
              employees, directors and consultants pursuant to the Company's
              1992 Stock Compensation Plan, the Company's 1997 Stock Option
              Plan and the Company's Non-Employee Director Option Plan, of

              Company has 595,731 shares of Common Stock subject to
              outstanding warrants, of which 553,660 shares are subject to
              warrants issued under the Company's 1999 private placement of
              its Common Stock and warrants to purchase its Common Stock.
              Dividends on the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are
              cumulative from the date of the initial closing of the sale of
              such shares, February 27, 1997, and are payable, at the
              Company's election, in cash or in the Company's common stock, or
              a combination thereof, at an annual rate equal to (i) $4.00 per
              share to the extent the dividend is paid in cash and (ii) $4.50
              per share to the extent the dividend is paid in Common Stock.
              The Company has not declared a dividend payment since November
              1998, and has not paid dividends on Series B Convertible
              Preferred Stock except on conversion of Series B Preferred Stock
              to common stock. Other than as set forth above or as
              contemplated in this Agreement, there are no other options,
              warrants, calls, rights, commitments or agreements of any
              character to which the Company is a party or by which either the
              Company is bound or obligating the Company to issue, deliver,
              sell, repurchase or redeem, or cause to be issued, delivered,
              sold, repurchased or redeemed, any shares of the capital stock
              of the Company or obligating the Company to grant, extend or
              enter into any such option, warrant, call, right, commitment or
              agreement.

       (3)    ISSUANCE.  The Units, the Common Stock included in the Units, the
              Warrants and the Warrant Shares, have been duly and validly
              authorized and, when issued and paid for pursuant to this
              Agreement, or, in the case of the Warrant Shares, pursuant to the
              terms of the Warrants, will be validly issued, fully paid and
              nonassessable.

       (4)    AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEABILITY.  The Company has all corporate
              right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to
              consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  All corporate
              action on the part of the Company, its directors and stockholders
              necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and
              performance of this Agreement by the Company, the authorization,
              sale, issuance and delivery of the Units contemplated herein and
              the performance of the Company's obligations hereunder has been
              taken.  This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
              Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of
              the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with
              its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to
              bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and rules of law
              governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other
              equitable remedies, and to limitations of public policy.  The
              issuance and sale of the Units contemplated hereby will not give
              rise to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal on behalf
              of any person.

                     judgment or decree of any court or governmental authority
                     to or by which the Company is bound, or of any provision of
                     the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company,
                     and will not conflict with, or result in a breach or
                     violation of, any of the terms or provisions of, or
                     constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a
                     default under, any lease, loan agreement, mortgage,
                     security agreement, trust indenture or other agreement or
                     instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it
                     is bound or to which any of its properties or assets is
                     subject, nor result in the creation or imposition of any
                     lien upon any of the properties or assets of the Company.

              (b)    No consent, approval, authorization or other order of any
                     governmental authority or other third-party is required to
                     be obtained by the Company in connection with the
                     authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement or
                     with the authorization, issue and sale of the Units, except
                     such filings as may be required to be made with the
                     Commission, the Nasdaq National Market and with any state
                     or foreign blue sky or securities regulatory authority.

       (6)    LITIGATION.  Other than as set forth in Section B(8) herein, the
              Company knows of no pending or threatened legal or governmental
              proceedings against the Company which could materially adversely
              affect the business, property, financial condition, results of
              operations or prospects of the Company.

              Reports, required to be filed by the Company within the two years

              Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), have been duly filed
              with the Commission, complied at the time of filing in all
              material respects with the requirements of their respective forms
              and, except to the extent updated or superseded by any
              subsequently filed report, to the best of the Company's knowledge,
              were complete and correct in all material respects as of the dates
              at which the information was furnished, and contained (as of such
              dates) no untrue statements of a material fact nor omitted to
              state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements
              contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
              were made, not misleading.

       (8)    FINANCIAL INFORMATION.  The Company's financial statements that
              appear in the SEC Reports have been prepared in all material
              respects in accordance with United States generally accepted
              accounting principles (except that the financial statements that
              are not audited do not have notes thereto) applied on a consistent
              basis throughout the periods indicated and with each other and
              that such financial statements fairly present, in all material
              respects, the financial condition and operating results of the
              Company as of the dates, and for the periods, indicated therein.

       (9)    ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES.  Since the date of the Company's
              financial statements in the 2Q 2000 Form 10-Q, there has not been
              any material adverse effect on the assets, liabilities, condition
              (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company
              or any occurrence, circumstance or combination thereof that
              reasonably could be expected to result in such material adverse
              effect.

       (10)   INVESTMENT COMPANY.  The Company is not an "investment company"
              within the meaning of such term under the Investment Company Act
              of 1940, as amended,  and the rules and regulations of the
              Commission thereunder.

       (11)   BROKERS.  Except for the payment of placement agency fees to each
              of the Placement Agents as described herein, the Company has not
              incurred any obligation for any finder's, broker's or agent's fee
              in connection with the Offering hereby.  In exchange for their
              services in introducing potential investors to the Company, (A)
              Trout Group shall receive a fee comprised of (i) 2.5% of the gross
              proceeds received from the investors introduced to the Company by

              sold herein to purchase that number of shares of the Company's
              Common Stock equal to 2.5% of the total number of shares of Common
              Stock purchased by investors introduced by Trout Group and (B) Ten
              Peaks shall receive a fee of 5% of the gross proceeds received

       (12)   INDEMNIFICATION.  The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless
              the undersigned purchaser, and each officer, director or control
              person of such entity (each, an "Indemnified Party"), from any and
              all damage, loss, liability and expense (including, without
              limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel as
              incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding)
              incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Party arising out of any
              misrepresentation or breach of warranty, covenant or agreement
              made or to be performed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement
              or the Warrants.

       D.     UNDERSTANDINGS.

The undersigned understands, acknowledges and agrees with the Company and the
Placement Agents as follows:

       (1)    The Company may terminate this Offering at any time in its sole
              discretion.  The execution of this Agreement by the undersigned or
              solicitation of the investment contemplated hereby shall create no
              obligation of the Company to accept any subscription or complete
              the Offering in the event that the Company does not receive the
              Minimum Offering Amount.

       (2)    Except as set forth in Section D(1)  above, the undersigned hereby
              acknowledges and agrees that the subscription hereunder is
              irrevocable by the undersigned, that, except as required by law,
              the undersigned is not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke
              this Agreement or any agreements of the undersigned hereunder and
              that this Agreement and such other agreements shall survive the
              death or disability of the undersigned and shall be binding upon
              and inure to the benefit of the parties and their heirs,
              executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and
              permitted assigns; provided, however, that the Company has
              received commitment and funds for the Minimum Offering Amount.  If
              the undersigned is more than one person, the obligations of the
              undersigned hereunder shall be joint and several and the

                                     -8-

<PAGE>

             agreements, representations, warranties and acknowledges herein
             contained shall be deemed to be made by and be binding upon each
             such person and his/her heirs, executors, administrators,
             successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

      (3)    No federal or state agency has made any finding or determination
             as to the accuracy or adequacy of the Offering Documents or as to
             the fairness of the terms of this offering for investment nor any
             recommendation or endorsement of the Units.

      (4)    The Offering is intended to be exempt from registration under the
             Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and
             the provisions of Regulation D thereunder, which is in part
             dependent upon the truth, completeness and accuracy of the
             statements made by the undersigned herein and in the
             Questionnaire.

      (5)    There is no public or other market for the Units and no such
             public or other market may ever develop.  There can be no
             assurance that the undersigned will be able to sell or dispose of
             the Units.  It is understood that in order not to jeopardize the
             Offering's exempt status under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
             and Regulation D, any transferee may, at a minimum, be required to
             fulfill the investor suitability requirements thereunder.

      (6)    The undersigned acknowledges that the information contained in
             this Agreement and the Term Sheet is confidential and non-public
             and agrees that all such information shall be kept in confidence
             by the undersigned and neither used for the undersigned's personal
             benefit (other than in connection with this subscription) nor
             disclosed to any third party for any reason; provided, however,
             that this confidentiality obligation shall not apply to any such
             information that (i) is part of the public knowledge or literature
             and readily accessible at the date hereof, (ii) becomes part of
             the public knowledge or literature and readily accessible by
             publication (except as a result of a breach of this provision) or
             (iii) is received from third parties (except third parties who
             disclose such information in violation of any confidentiality
             agreements or obligations, including, without limitation, any
             Subscription Agreement entered into with the Company).

      (7)    The undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions on
             the undersigned's use and disclosure of any such confidential,
             non-public information contained in the above-described documents
             restricts the undersigned from trading in the Company's securities
             to the extent such trading is based on such confidential,
             non-public information.

      (8)    The representations, warranties and agreements of the undersigned
             contained herein and in any other writing delivered in connection
             with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be true and
             correct in all respects on and as of the sale of the Units as if
             made on and as of such date and shall survive the execution and
             delivery of this agreement and the purchase of the Units.

      (9)    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities
             Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons
             of the Company, the Company has been informed

                                     -9-

<PAGE>

             that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
             indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Act
             and is therefore unenforceable to such extent.

      (10)   IN MAKING AN INVESTMENT DECISION PURCHASERS MUST RELY ON THEIR OWN
             EXAMINATION OF THE COMPANY AND THE TERMS OF THE OFFERING,
             INCLUDING THE MERITS AND RISKS INVOLVED.  THE UNITS OFFERED HEREBY

             ADEQUACY OF THE OFFERING DOCUMENTS.  ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE
             CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

      (1)    REGISTRATION OF SECURITIES.  Within sixty days from the Closing
             Date, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prepare
             for filing with the Commission, and cause to be filed, a "shelf"
             registration statement (the "Shelf Registration") pursuant to Rule
             415 under the Securities Act providing for the sale by the
             Purchasers of the shares of Common Stock and the Warrant Shares
             included in the Units (the "Registrable Securities").  The Company
             shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the registration
             statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable after it
             has been filed with the Commission.  The Company agrees to use its
             reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration
             continuously effective for a period ending on the earliest of (a)
             the fifth anniversary of the effective date of such Shelf
             Registration, (b) the date on which all such Registrable
             Securities have been sold thereunder, or (c) the date upon which
             all such Registrable Securities are freely transferable without
             restriction under the Securities Act.  For the purpose of this
             Agreement, "reasonable best efforts" shall mean the best efforts
             of the Company consistent with sound and reasonable business
             practices and judgment.

      (2)    PAYMENTS BY THE COMPANY.

             (a)    If the Registration Statement covering the Registrable
                    Securities is not filed in proper form with the SEC within
                    sixty (60) days after the Closing Date (the "Required
                    Filing Date") and declared effective within one hundred
                    twenty (120) days within the Closing Date (the "Required
                    Effective Date"), the Company will make payment to the
                    undersigned in such amounts and at such times as shall be
                    determined pursuant to this Section E(2).

             (b)    The amount (the "Periodic Amount")  to be paid by the
                    Company to the undersigned shall be determined as of each
                    Computation Date (as defined below) and such amount shall
                    be equal to (A) one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the
                    purchase price paid by the undersigned (the "Purchase
                    Price") for all Units then purchased and outstanding
                    pursuant to this Agreement for the period from the date
                    following the Required Effective Date to the first relevant
                    Computation Date and (B) 1 percent (1%) to each Computation
                    Date thereafter.  By way of illustration and not in
                    limitation of the foregoing, if the Registration Statement
                    is not effective until one hundred sixty (160) days after
                    the Closing Date, the Periodic Amount will aggregate one
                    and one-half  percent (1.5%) of the purchase price of the
                    Units (0.5% for days 120-150  plus 1% for days 150-160).

             (c)    Each Periodic Amount will be payable by the Company in cash
                    or other immediately available funds to the undersigned
                    upon demand of the undersigned.

                                      -11-

             (d)    The parties acknowledge that the damages which may be
                    incurred by the Investor if the Registration Statement has
                    not been effective by the Required Effective Date may be
                    difficult to ascertain.  Therefore, the parties agree that
                    the Periodic Amount represents a reasonable estimate on the
                    part of the parties, as of the date of this Agreement, of
                    the amount of such damages and that the payment by Company
                    of the Periodic Amount shall be deemed in complete and
                    total satisfaction of all claims of undersigned against
                    Company for failure of Company to comply with Section
                    E(2)(a) above.

             (e)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amounts payable by the
                    Company pursuant to this provision shall not be payable to
                    the extent any delay in the effectiveness of the
                    Registration Statement occurs because of an act of, or a
                    failure to act or to act timely by the undersigned, the
                    Placement Agents or their counsel, or in the event all of
                    the Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144
                    or another available exemption under the Act.

             (f)    "Computation Date" means (i) the date which is the earlier
                    of (A) thirty (30) days after the Required Effective Date
                    or (B) the date after the Required Effective Date on which
                    the Registration Statement is effective and (ii) each date
                    which is the earlier of (A) thirty (30) days after the
                    previous Computation Date or (B) the date after the
                    previous Computation Date on which the Registration
                    Statement is effective.

             (g)    Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be
                    obligated under any circumstances to pay any Periodic
                    Amount otherwise due under the terms of this Section E(2)
                    unless and until the shareholders of the Company have
                    approved such payment at a duly called and convened meeting
                    by the required minimum vote.  The Company agrees that it
                    will use reasonable best efforts to obtain shareholder
                    approval, if such approval is required, including calling
                    and conducting such meeting on a timely basis and
                    recommending it to the shareholders.

      (3)    REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.  In connection with the Company's
             obligations with respect to the Shelf Registration, the Company
             shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration
             in furtherance of the sale of the Registrable Securities by the
             holders thereof in accordance with the intended method or methods
             of distribution thereof described in the Shelf Registration.  In
             connection therewith, the Company shall, as promptly as may be
             practicable:

             (a)    prepare and file with the Commission a registration
                    statement with respect to the Registrable Securities on any
                    form for which the Company then qualifies or which counsel
                    for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall
                    be available for the disposition of the Registrable
                    Securities in accordance with the intended method or
                    methods of disposition thereof;

             (b)    Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
                    supplements to such registration statement and the
                    prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary
                    to keep such registration statement effective for the
                    applicable period specified in Paragraph (1) above;

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

             (c)    furnish to each Purchaser who is selling Registrable
                    Securities a copy of such registration statement, each
                    amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including
                    all exhibits thereto but excluding all documents
                    incorporated by reference therein unless specifically so
                    requested by such Purchaser) and such reasonable number of
                    copies of the prospectus included in such registration
                    statement (including each preliminary prospectus) as such
                    Purchaser may reasonably request;

             (d)    use reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the
                    Registrable Securities under such other securities laws or
                    blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Purchasers shall
                    reasonably request, and take any and all such actions as
                    may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the
                    Purchasers to consummate the disposition in such
                    jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities;

             (e)    notify each Purchaser, at any time when a prospectus
                    relating thereto is required to be delivered under the
                    Securities Act within the period that the Company is
                    required to keep the registration statement effective, of
                    the happening of any event as a result of which the
                    prospectus included in such registration statement (as then
                    in effect) contains an untrue statement of a material fact
                    or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
                    therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
                    misleading.  As promptly as practicable following any such
                    occurrence, the Company shall prepare and furnish to each
                    Purchaser a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or
                    an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so
                    that, as thereafter delivered to subsequent purchasers of
                    the Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall meet the
                    requirements of the Securities Act and relevant state
                    securities laws, provided that such obligation on the part
                    of the Company shall be suspended for such period of time
                    as the Company considers reasonably necessary and in its
                    best interest due to circumstances then existing (but not
                    more than 30 days in any 180-day period).  Each Purchaser
                    shall furnish to the Company such information regarding
                    each such Purchaser and its proposed method of distribution
                    of the Registrable Securities as the Company may from time
                    to time request and as shall be required by law to effect
                    and maintain the registration of such Securities under the
                    Securities Act and any state securities laws;

             (f)    advise each Purchaser, promptly after receiving notice
                    thereof, of any stop order issued or threatened by the
                    Commission and use its reasonable best efforts to take all
                    actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order,
                    or to remove it if entered;

             (g)    use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable
                    Securities included in such registration statement to be
                    listed, by the date of the first sale of Registrable
                    Securities pursuant to such registration statement, on each
                    securities exchange (or the NASDAQ) on which the Common
                    Stock of the Company is then listed or proposed to be
                    listed;

                                      -13-

<PAGE>

             (h)    furnish to each Purchaser on the effective date of such
                    registration statement a signed counterpart, addressed to
                    the Purchasers, of (i) an opinion of counsel representing
                    the Company and reasonably satisfactory to such Purchasers
                    that the registration statement (including each amendment
                    or supplement thereto and prospectus included therein)
                    complies as to form in all material respects with the
                    requirements of the Securities Act and the applicable rules
                    and regulations thereunder, and (ii) a "comfort" letter
                    from the independent public accountants retained by the
                    Company, stating that they are independent public
                    accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act and
                    that, in the opinion of such accountants, the financial
                    statements of the Company included or incorporated by
                    reference in the registration statement or the prospectus,
                    or any amendment or supplement thereof, comply as to form
                    in all material respects with the applicable accounting
                    requirements of the Securities Act and the published rules
                    and regulations thereunder, and covering such other
                    financial matters of the type customarily covered by such
                    letters; and

             (i)    otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with
                    the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
                    disposition of all of the Registrable Securities in
                    accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the
                    Purchasers thereof set forth in such registration statement
                    and to make generally available to its security holders, as
                    soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement
                    satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
                    Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

      (4)    EXPENSES.  All expenses incident to the Company's performance of
             or compliance with the provisions of this Section E (including,
             without limitation, all registration and filing fees, fees and
             expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, fees and
             expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the
             Registrable Securities to be registered on each securities
             exchange (or the NASDAQ) on which similar securities issued by the
             Company are then listed, printing expenses, fees and disbursements
             of separate counsels for each of the Company and the Purchaser,
             and fees and disbursements of all independent certified public
             accountants and other persons retained by the Company) will be
             borne by the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
             Purchasers shall pay any and all underwriting fees, discounts or
             commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities.

      (5)    INDEMNIFICATION.

             (a)    Upon the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to
                    Section E(1) of this Agreement, and in consideration of the
                    agreements of the Purchasers contained herein, the Company
                    shall, and it hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold
                    harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each of the
                    Purchasers which holds Registrable Securities, its officers
                    and directors, each underwriter of such Registrable
                    Securities, if any, and each person who controls such
                    person (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against
                    all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
                    (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) to
                    which such Purchaser, its officers, directors, each
                    underwriter, or such controlling persons may become
                    subject, insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
                    liabilities and expenses (or actions in respect thereof)
                    arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
                    alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any
                    such registration statement, any

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

                    prospectus or preliminary prospectus contained therein or
                    any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or
                    alleged omission to state therein a material fact
                    required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
                    statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse
                    each such Purchaser, each such underwriter and each such
                    controlling person for any legal or other expenses
                    reasonably incurred by them in connection with
                    investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
                    liability or action; except (i) insofar as the same arise
                    out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission
                    or alleged omission so made based upon information
                    furnished by such Purchaser, underwriter or controlling
                    person in writing specifically for use in such
                    registration statement or prospectus or (ii) insofar as
                    the same are caused by such Purchaser's or such
                    underwriter's failure to deliver a copy of such
                    registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or
                    supplements thereto after the Company has furnished such
                    Purchaser or such underwriter with a sufficient number of
                    copies of the same; and provided, however, that the
                    foregoing indemnity and reimbursement obligation shall
                    not be applicable to the extent that any such loss,
                    claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is
                    based on any untrue statement or omission made in: (i) a
                    preliminary prospectus, which untrue statement or
                    omission is corrected in the final prospectus and such
                    final prospectus is made available to such Purchaser in
                    accordance with the requirements of Rule 424 under the
                    Securities Act; or (ii) any prospectus, which untrue
                    statement or omission is corrected in a prospectus
                    supplement or amended prospectus and such prospectus
                    supplement or amended prospectus is made available to
                    such Purchaser prior to the sale of Registrable
                    Securities which gave rise to such loss, claim, damage,
                    liability or expense.

             (b)    In connection with any registration statement under which
                    Registrable Securities are registered under the Securities
                    Act and pursuant to which a Purchaser offers and sells
                    Registrable Securities, each such Purchaser shall, and it
                    hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless, to the
                    extent permitted by law, each of the Company, its officers
                    and directors, and each person who controls the Company
                    (within the meaning of the Securities Act) and, if the
                    offering is an underwritten offering, the underwriters,
                    against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
                    expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
                    expenses) to which the Company, its officers and directors,
                    underwriters, or controlling persons may become subject,
                    insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
                    expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or
                    are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
                    statement of material fact contained in any such
                    registration statement, any prospectus or preliminary
                    prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement
                    thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state
                    therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
                    necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and
                    will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director,
                    underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other
                    expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
                    investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
                    liability or action, insofar as (i) the same arise out of
                    or are based upon any untrue statement or omission or
                    alleged omission so made based upon information furnished
                    by such

                    Purchaser or controlling person of such Purchaser, in
                    writing specifically for use in such registration
                    statement or prospectus or (ii) the same are caused by such
                    Purchaser's failure to deliver a copy of such registration
                    statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements
                    thereto after the Company has furnished such Purchaser with
                    a sufficient number of copies of the same and provided,
                    further, that the liability of each Purchaser under this
                    Paragraph 4(b) shall be limited to the proportion of any
                    such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense which is
                    equal to the proportion that the public offering price of
                    Common Stock sold by such Purchaser under such registration
                    statement bears to the total public offering price of all
                    securities sold thereunder, but not to exceed the amount of
                    the proceeds received by such Purchaser from the sale of
                    the Registrable Securities covered by such registration
                    statement.

             (c)    Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i)
                    give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim
                    with respect to which it seeks indemnification (but the
                    failure to give such notice will not affect the right to
                    indemnification hereunder, unless the indemnifying party is
                    materially prejudiced by such failure) and (ii) unless in
                    such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of
                    interest may exist between such indemnified and
                    indemnifying parties with respect to such claim, permit
                    such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim
                    with counsel selected by the indemnifying party and
                    reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.  If such
                    defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party or if the
                    indemnifying party is not permitted to assume such defense
                    then (x) the indemnified party shall select counsel, which
                    counsel must be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying
                    party and (y) the indemnifying party will not be subject to
                    any liability for any settlement made without its consent
                    (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).  No
                    indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or
                    enter into any settlement which does not include as an
                    unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or
                    plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all
                    liability in respect of such claim or litigation.  An
                    indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not
                    to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to
                    pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all
                    parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect
                    to such claim, unless in the reasonably judgment of any
                    indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between
                    such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified
                    parties with respect to such claim, in which case the
                    indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and
                    expenses of one additional counsel, who must be reasonably
                    satisfactory to the indemnifying party.

             (d)    Each party hereto agrees that, if for any reason the
                    indemnification provisions contemplated by Paragraph 4(a)
                    or Paragraph 4(b) are unavailable or are insufficient to
                    hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any
                    losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or
                    actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each
                    indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
                    payable by such indemnified party as a result of such
                    losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or
                    actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is
                    appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
                    indemnifying party and the indemnified party as well as any
                    other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative
                    fault of such indemnifying

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

                     party and indemnified party shall be determined by
                     reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
                     alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
                     or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
                     information supplied by such indemnifying party or
                     indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent,
                     knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
                     correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The
                     parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
                     equitable if contribution pursuant to this Paragraph
                     4(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the
                     Purchasers or any underwriters or all of them were
                     treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other
                     method of allocation which does not take into account
                     the equitable considerations referred to in this
                     Paragraph 4(d).  No person guilty of fraudulent
                     misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)
                     of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution
                     from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
                     misrepresentation.

              (e)    The indemnification and contribution obligations and each
                     other provision set forth in this Paragraph 4 shall remain
                     in full force and effect regardless of any investigation
                     made by or on behalf of the Company, any Purchaser, any
                     officer or employee of the Company or such Purchaser, any
                     underwriter, any officer or employee of such underwriter,
                     or any controlling person of any of the foregoing and shall
                     survive the transfer and registration of Registrable
                     Securities by such Purchaser.

       (6)    RULE 144 REPORTING.  With a view to making available to Purchasers
              the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated by the Commission under the
              Securities Act, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best
              efforts to:

              (a)    make and keep adequate current public information with
                     respect to the Company available, as those terms are used
                     in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after
                     the Final Closing Date;

              (b)    file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and
                     other documents required of the Company under the Exchange
                     Act; and

              (c)    furnish to Purchasers promptly upon request a written
                     statement by the Company as to its compliance with the
                     reporting requirements of Rule 144 and the Exchange Act, a
                     copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
                     Company, and such other reports and documents of the
                     Company as any Purchaser may reasonably request in order to
                     permit such Purchaser to avail itself of any rule or
                     regulation of the Commission allowing such Purchaser to
                     sell its Registrable Securities without registration.

       (7)    AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.  Any provision of this Section E may be
              amended or waived if, but only if, in the case of an amendment,
              such amendment is in writing and is signed by the Company and the
              Purchasers who are the holders of a majority of the Registrable
              Securities or, in the case of a waiver, such waiver is in writing
              and is signed by the party to be charged

                                        -17-
<PAGE>

              with having granted such waiver.  No failure or delay by the
              Company or any Purchaser in exercising any right, power or
              privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
              shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other
              or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
              power or privilege.

F.     COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

       (1)    The Company hereby agrees that, for so long as the undersigned
              owns at least ten percent (10%) of the total number of outstanding

              Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share), the
              Company shall notify such individual as shall be designated from

       (2)    The Company hereby agrees that, for a period of 120 days after the
              Closing Date, it shall not issue or sell any Common Stock of the
              Company, any warrants, options, or other rights to acquire Common
              Stock, or any other securities that are convertible into Common
              Stock, for a purchase or exercise price less than the Closing
              Price.

       (3)    The Company agrees at Closing to pay the reasonable fees and
              disbursements of counsel to the undersigned purchasers, not to
              exceed $20,000 in the aggregate.

              deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, singular or plural, as

              Agreement or any other agreement between the Company and the
              undersigned, or otherwise, or delay by the Company in exercising
              such right or remedy, will not operate as a waiver thereof.  No
              waiver by the Company will be effective unless and until it is in

       (5)    This Agreement shall be enforced, governed and construed in all

              into and to be performed in Texas by and between residents of

              undersigned's heirs, estate, legal representatives, successors and
              assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Company, its
              successors and assigns.  If any provision of this Subscription

              that may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not

              parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and may
              be amended only by writing executed by both parties hereto.
