      conservatorship, bankruptcy, moratorium, arrangement, receivership,

      other rights provided for in this Agreement (except as may be required in
      connection with such disposition by laws affecting the offering and sale
      of securities generally).

Section 6.  FURTHER ASSURANCES.

            (a) Each Pledgor agrees that from time to time, at the reasonable
      expense of the Pledgor, each Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all
      further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the
      Secured Party may reasonably request as being necessary or desirable, in
      order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to
      be granted hereby or to enable the Secured Party to exercise and enforce
      its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral.
      Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor will
      execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments

      Transaction Documents.

            (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
      Default, and subject to the provisions of the Subordination Agreement all
      rights of the Pledgors to exercise the voting rights which they would
      otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to SECTION 7(A) hereof shall
      cease for so long as such Event of Default shall continue, and subject

Subordination Agreement and subject to the rights of the Senior Lenders, if
dividends or other distributions and/or payments with respect to the Pledged
Collateral are received by the Pledgors other than in accordance with the terms

Secured Party, shall be segregated from other funds of the Pledgors and shall be

as so received.

Section 9.  TRANSFERS AND OTHER LIENS: ADDITIONAL SHARES.

            (a) The Pledgors shall not: (i) sell, assign (by agreement,
      operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any
      option with respect to, any of the Pledged Collateral or (ii) create or
      permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Pledged
      Collateral, except for the Permitted Liens and for the security interest
      created by this Agreement.

            (b) The Pledgors agree that they will (i) cause the companies that
      issued the shares or ownership interests that constitute the Pledged
      Collateral not to issue any stock, other securities or ownership interests
      in addition to, or in substitution for, the Pledged Collateral, except to
      the Pledgor and (ii) subject to the rights of Agent, pledge to the Secured
      Party hereunder, immediately upon such acquisition (directly or
      indirectly) thereof, any and all additional shares of stock, other
      securities or other ownership interests of such companies, subject,
      however, to the proviso set forth in clause ii of SECTION 2 hereinabove.

Section 10. SECURED PARTY APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. Subject to the provisions
of the Subordination Agreement and subject to the rights of the Senior Lenders,
the Pledgors hereby irrevocably appoint the Secured Party as the Pledgors'
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Pledgors and
in the name of the Pledgors, from time to time in the Secured Party's sole
discretion after the occurrence of an Event of Default to take any action and to
execute any instrument which the Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable
to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to
receive, endorse and collect all certificates made payable to the Pledgors
representing any dividend or other distribution in respect of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. Subject
to the provisions of the Subordination Agreement and upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Party shall, subject
to the rights of the Senior Lenders, have the right, in its sole discretion and
without notice to the Pledgors, to transfer to or to register in the name of the
Secured Party or any of its nominees, for the benefit of the itself and the
Lenders, any or all of the Pledged Collateral.

Section 11. SECURED PARTY MAY PERFORM. Subject to the rights of the Senior
Lenders, if the Pledgors fail to perform any agreement contained herein, the
Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and
the reasonable expenses of the Secured Party incurred in connection therewith
shall be payable upon demand (subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement) by
such Pledgor and if not paid shall bear interest at the Default Rate set forth
in the Loan Agreement.

Section 12. THE SECURED PARTY'S DUTIES. The powers conferred on the Secured
Party hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Pledged Collateral and
shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. In regard to any
Pledgor, except for reasonable care in the custody of any Pledged Collateral in
its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder,
the Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral or as to the
taking of any reasonably necessary steps to preserve rights against prior
parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral. The Secured
Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and
preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if the Pledged
Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Secured
Party accords its own property, it being understood that the Secured Party shall
not have any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect
to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative
to any Pledged Collateral, whether or not the Secured Party has or is deemed to
have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve
rights against any parties with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

Section 13. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. Subject to the provisions of the
Subordination Agreement, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:

            (a) Subject to the rights of the Senior Lenders, the Secured Party
      may exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to other
      rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to

                                       J-4
<PAGE>
      it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC
      (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and the
      Secured Party may also, without notice except as specified below, sell the
      Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or
      private sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at any of the Secured
      Party's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery,
      and upon such other terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially
      reasonable. Each Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall
      be required by applicable law, at least ten (10) days' notice to the
      Pledgors of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after
      which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable
      notification thereof. Subject to the rights of the Senior Lenders, the
      Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged
      Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Secured
      Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by
      announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may,
      without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
      adjourned.

            (b) Any cash received by the Secured Party shall be applied first to
      repay the reasonable costs and expenses of the Secured Party and
      thereafter to repay the Secured Obligations. Any surplus of such cash or
      cash proceeds held by the Secured Party and remaining after payment in
      full of all the Secured Obligations shall be paid over to the Pledgors or
      to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

            (c) In connection with the sale of any Pledged Collateral, the
      Secured Party, as applicable, is authorized, but not obligated, to limit
      prospective purchasers to the extent deemed necessary or desirable by the
      Secured Party to render such sale exempt from the registration
      requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES
      ACT"), and any applicable state laws and regulations, and no sale so made
      in good faith by the Secured Party shall be deemed not to be "commercially
      reasonable" because so made.

            (d) All rights and remedies of the Secured Party expressed herein
      are in addition to all other rights and remedies possessed by the Secured
      Party under the Loan Agreement and any other agreement or instrument
      relating to the Obligations.

Section 14. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS CONCERNING ,SALES OF PLEDGED COLLATERAL.

            (a) The Pledgors recognize that the Secured Party may be unable to
      effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Collateral by reason of
      certain prohibitions contained in the laws of any jurisdiction outside the
      United States or in the Securities Act and applicable state securities
      laws, but may instead be compelled to resort to one or more private sales
      thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who shall be obligated to
      agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their
      own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
      resale thereof. The Pledgors acknowledge and agree that any such private
      sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller
      than if such sale were a public sale arid, notwithstanding such
      circumstances, agree that any such private sale shall, to the extent
      permitted by law, be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable
      manner. The Secured Party shall not be under any obligation to delay sale
      of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to
      permit the Pledgors to register such securities under the laws of any
      jurisdiction outside the United States, under the Securities Act or under
      any applicable state securities laws, even if the Pledgors would agree to
      do so.

            (b) The Pledgors further agree to do or cause or be done, to the
      extent that the Pledgors may legally do so, all such other acts and things
      as may be necessary to make such sales or resales of any portion or all of
      the Pledged Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and
      all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or
      awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or Governmental Authorities,
      domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all
      at the Pledgors' expense. The Pledgors further agree that a breach of any
      of the covenants contained in this Section shall cause irreparable injury
      to the Secured Party, and that the Secured Party has no adequate remedy at
      law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, agrees that each and
      every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable
      against the Pledgors, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
      Pledgors hereby waive and agree not to assert as a defense against an
      action for specific performance of such covenants that (i) the Pledgors'
      failure to perform such covenants shall not

                                       J-5
<PAGE>
      cause irreparable injury to the Secured Party or the Lenders or (ii)
      the Secured Party has an adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach.

Section 15. INDEMNITY AND EXPENSES.

            (a) The Pledgors hereby agree to indemnify the Secured Party from
      and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities growing out of or
      resulting from enforcement of this Agreement, except claims, losses or
      liabilities, if any, resulting from the Secured Party's gross negligence
      or willful misconduct. SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, IT IS THE EXPRESS
      INTENTION OF THE PLEDGORS THAT THE SECURED PARTY SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED AND
      HELD HARMLESS AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS,
      DEFICIENCIES, JUDGMENTS OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THE
      ORDINARY SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY SUCH PERSON OR IMPOSED
      UPON ANY SUCH PERSON UNDER ANY THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY.

            (b) The Pledgors shall, upon demand, but subject to the terms of the
      Loan Agreement, pay to the Secured Party the amount of any and all
      reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of the
      such party's counsel and of its experts, that the Secured Party may incur
      in connection with (i) administration of this Agreement, (ii) the
      evaluation, appraisal, custody or preservation of, or sale of, collection
      from, or other realization upon any of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) the
      exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Secured Party for
      itself and hereunder or (iv) the failure by the Pledgors to perform or
      observe any of the provisions of this Agreement. Each Pledgor agrees to
      pay interest on any sums payable to the Secured Party hereunder that are
      not paid when due at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate set forth
      in the Loan Agreement.

Section 16. AMENDMENTS, ETC. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement, nor consent to any departure by the Pledgors herefrom, shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Secured
Party and the Pledgors, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the specific purpose of which given.

Section 17. ADDRESSES FOR NOTICES. All notices and other communications provided
for hereunder shall be given in the manner and at the addresses for the Pledgors
and the Secured Party as set forth in the Loan Agreement, and shall become
effective as specified therein.

Section 18. WAIVER OF MARSHALING. All rights of marshaling of assets of the
Pledgors, including any such right with respect to the Pledged Collateral, are
hereby waived by the Pledgors.

Section 19. LIMITATION BY LAW. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this
Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not
violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this
Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of
law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that
they shall not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in
part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions
of any applicable law.

Section 20. SEVERABILITY. Should any clause, sentence, paragraph, subsection or
Section of this Agreement be judicially declared to be invalid, unenforceable or
void, such decision shall not have the effect of invalidating or voiding the
remainder of this Agreement, and the parties hereto agree that the part or parts
of this Agreement so held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed to have
been stricken herefrom by the parties hereto, and the remainder of this
Agreement shall have the same force and effectiveness as if such stricken part
or parts had never been included herein.

Section 21. TERMINATION REINSTATEMENT.

            (a) Each Pledgor agrees that this Agreement and the Liens granted
      hereunder shall terminate when, but only when, all Secured Obligations
      have been fully and finally paid and performed, and all of the obligations
      of IHI under the Transaction Documents have expired or been terminated. At
      any time thereafter upon the Pledgor's request, the Secured Party shall
      promptly reassign and redeliver, including the

                                      J-6
<PAGE>
      termination of any financing statements (or cause to be reassigned
      and redelivered) to the Pledgors, or to such Person or Persons as the
      Pledgors shall designate in writing, against receipt, such of the Pledged
      Collateral (if any) as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied by
      the Secured Party for the benefit of itself or the Lenders pursuant to the
      terms hereof and shall still be held by it hereunder. Any such
      reassignment shall be without recourse upon, or representation or warranty
      by, the Secured Party (other than that the Secured Party has not sold,
      encumbered or otherwise transferred any interest in the Collateral except
      as provided in this Agreement) and shall be at the sole reasonable cost
      and expense of the Pledgors.

            (b) This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated,
      as the case may be, if at any time any amount received by the Secured
      Party in respect of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise
      be restored or returned by the Secured Party upon the filing of any
      bankruptcy proceeding by or of the Pledgors or upon the appointment of any
      intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar official for, the
      Pledgors or any substantial part of their assets, or otherwise, all as
      though such payments had not been made.

Section 22. NO WAIVER REMEDIES. No failure on the part of the Secured Party to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a

and conditions of this Agreement, the Company may issue and sell to the

successor rule or regulation of Nasdaq or another securities regulating
authority.

express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms
and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees to purchase that
number of the Shares to be issued in connection with each Draw Down.  The
delivery of executed documents under this Agreement and the other
agreements referred to herein and the payment of the fees set forth in
Article II of the Escrow Agreement (the "Initial Closing") shall take
place at the offices of Epstein Becker & Green, P.C., 250 Park Avenue, New
York, New York 10177 within fifteen (15) days from the date hereof, or
(ii) such other time and place or on such date as the Purchaser and the
Company may agree upon (the "Initial Closing Date").  Each party shall
deliver all documents, instruments and writings required to be delivered
by such party pursuant to this Agreement at or prior to the Initial
Closing.

               (a)  ORGANIZATION, GOOD STANDING AND POWER.  The Company is
a corporation duly incorporated validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Colorado and has all requisite corporate
authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry
on its business as now being conducted.  The Company does not have any
subsidiaries and does not own more than fifty percent (50%) of or control
any other business entity except as set forth in the SEC Documents.  The
Company is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a
foreign corporation in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the
business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification
necessary, other than those in which the failure so to qualify would not
have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company's financial condition.

               (b)  AUTHORIZATION, ENFORCEMENT.  (i) The Company has the
requisite corporate power and corporate authority to enter into and
perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Registration Rights
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and to issue the Draw Down Shares pursuant
to their respective terms, (ii) the execution, issuance and delivery of
this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Escrow Agreement
by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no
further consent or authorization of the Company or its Board of Directors
or stockholders is required, and (iii) this Agreement, the Registration
Rights Agreement and the Escrow Agreement have been duly executed and
delivered by the Company and at the Initial Closing shall constitute valid
and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in
accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors' rights and remedies or
by other equitable principles of general application.  The Company has
duly and validly authorized and reserved for issuance shares of Common
Stock sufficient in number for the issuance of the Draw Down Shares.

               (c)  CAPITALIZATION.  The authorized capital stock of the
Company consists of 19,970,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of which
4,966,974 shares are issued and outstanding and 10,000,000 shares of
preferred stock of which none are issued and outstanding.  All of the
outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock have been duly and
validly authorized and are fully-paid and non-assessable, except as set
forth in the SEC Documents.  Except as set forth in this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement and as set forth in the SEC Documents, or on
SCHEDULE 3.1(c) hereto, no shares of Common Stock are entitled to
preemptive rights or registration rights and there are no outstanding
options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of
any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights convertible
into, any shares of capital stock of the Company.  Furthermore, except as
set forth in this Agreement and as set forth in the SEC Documents or on
Schedule 3.1(c), there are no contracts, commitments, understandings, or
arrangements by which the Company is or may become bound to issue
additional shares of the capital stock of the Company or options,
securities or rights convertible into shares of capital stock of the
Company. Except as set forth in SCHEDULE 3.1(c), the Company is not a
party to any agreement granting registration rights to any person with
respect to any of its equity or debt securities.  Except as set forth in
SCHEDULE 3.1(c), the Company is not a party to, and it has no knowledge
of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of any shares of the
capital stock of the Company.  Except as set forth in the SEC Documents or
on SCHEDULE 3.1(c) hereto, the offer and sale of all capital stock,
convertible securities, rights, warrants, or options of the Company issued
prior to the Initial Closing complied with all applicable federal and
state securities laws, and no stockholder has a right of rescission or
damages with respect thereto which would have a Material Adverse Effect on
the Company's financial condition or operating results.  The Company has
made available to the Purchaser true and correct copies of the Company's
Articles of Incorporation as in effect on the date hereof (the
"Articles"), and the Company's Bylaws as in effect on the date hereof (the
"Bylaws").  The Company has not received any notice from the Principal
Market questioning or threatening the continued inclusion of the Common
Stock on such market.

               (d)  ISSUANCE OF SHARES.  The Shares to be issued under
this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action

Shares shall be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-
assessable, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to all rights accorded to
a holder of Common Stock.

               (e)  NO CONFLICTS.  The execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of
the transactions contemplated herein do not and will not (i) violate any
provision of the Company's Articles or Bylaws, (ii) conflict with, or
constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or

mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement,
instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party, (iii) create or

applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or by which any
property or asset of the Company or any of its subsidiaries are bound or
affected, except, in all cases, for such conflicts, defaults, termination,
amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.  The
business of the Company and its subsidiaries is not being conducted in
violation of any laws, ordinances or regulations of any governmental
entity, except for possible violations which singularly or in the
aggregate do not and will not have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company
is not required under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation
to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or
registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to

administrators subsequent to the Initial Closing and any registration
statement which may be filed pursuant hereto); provided that, for purpose
of the representation made in this sentence, the Company is assuming and
relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements
of the Purchaser herein.

               (f)  SEC DOCUMENTS, FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.  The Common Stock
of the Company is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities

reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, including material filed

Documents filed with the SEC since December 31, 1998.  The Company has not

the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  As of their respective
filing dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the
requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC
promulgated thereunder applicable to such documents, and, as of their
respective filing dates, none of the SEC Documents contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents
comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting
requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC or other
applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto.  Such financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis during the

financial statements or the notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited
interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may be
condensed or summary statements), and fairly present in all material
respects the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of

hereto sets forth each subsidiary of the Company, showing the jurisdiction
of its incorporation or organization and showing the percentage of each
person's ownership of the outstanding stock or other interests of such
subsidiary.  For the purposes of this Agreement, "subsidiary" shall mean

persons performing similar functions are at the time owned directly or
indirectly by the Company and/or any of its other subsidiaries.  All of
the outstanding shares of capital stock of each subsidiary have been duly
authorized and validly issued, and are fully paid and non-assessable.
There are no outstanding preemptive, conversion or other rights, options,
warrants or agreements granted or issued by or binding upon any subsidiary
for the purchase or acquisition of any shares of capital stock of any
subsidiary or any other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or
evidencing the rights to subscribe for any shares of such capital stock.
Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is subject to any obligation
(contingent or otherwise) to repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire any
shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary or any convertible
securities, rights, warrants or options of the type described in the
preceding sentence.  Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is a party to,
nor has any knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer
of any shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary.

               (h)  NO MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT.  Since March 31, 2000 no
Material Adverse Effect has occurred or exists with respect to the
Company, except as disclosed in the SEC Documents or on SCHEDULE 3.1(h)
hereof.

               (i)  NO UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES.  Except as disclosed in
the SEC Documents or on SCHEDULE 3.1(i) hereto, neither the Company nor
any of its subsidiaries has any liabilities, obligations, claims or losses
(whether liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, absolute,
accrued, contingent or otherwise) that would be required to be disclosed
on a balance sheet of the Company or any subsidiary (including the notes
thereto) in conformity with GAAP which are not disclosed in the SEC
Documents, other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the
Company's or its subsidiaries respective businesses since such date and
which, individually or in the aggregate, do not or would not have a
Material Adverse Effect on the Company or its subsidiaries.

               (j)  NO UNDISCLOSED EVENTS OR CIRCUMSTANCES.  Since March
31, 2000, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to
the Company or its businesses, properties, prospects, operations or
financial condition, that, under applicable law, rule or regulation,
requires public disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by the
Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed in the
SEC Documents.

               (k)  INDEBTEDNESS.  The SEC Documents or SCHEDULE 3.1(k)
hereto sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and
unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary, or for which the
Company or any subsidiary has commitments.  For the purposes of this
Agreement, "Indebtedness" shall mean (A) any liabilities for borrowed
money or amounts owed in excess of $250,000 (other than trade accounts
payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (B) all guaranties,
endorsements and contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness of
others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the
Company's balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by
endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar
transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (C) the present value
of any lease payments in excess of $250,000 due under leases required to
be capitalized in accordance with GAAP.  Neither the Company nor any
subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness.

               (l)  TITLE TO ASSETS.  Each of the Company and the
subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all of its real and personal
property reflected in the SEC Documents, free of any mortgages, pledges,
charges, liens, security interests or other encumbrances, except for those
indicated in the SEC Documents or on SCHEDULE 3.1(1) hereto or such that
do not cause a Material Adverse Effect on the Company's financial
condition or operating results.  All said leases of the Company and each
of its subsidiaries are valid and subsisting and in full force and effect.

               (m)  ACTIONS PENDING.  There is no action, suit, claim,
investigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened against the Company or any subsidiary which questions the
validity of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or any
action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto.  Except as set
forth in the SEC Documents or on SCHEDULE 3.1(m) hereto, there is no
action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened, against or involving the Company,
any subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets.  There are
no outstanding orders, judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any
court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body against the Company
or any subsidiary.

               (n)  COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.  The business of the Company and
the subsidiaries has been and is presently being conducted in accordance
with all applicable federal, state and local governmental laws, rules,
regulations and ordinances, except as set forth in the SEC Documents or on
SCHEDULE 3.1(n) hereto or such that do not cause a Material Adverse
Effect.  The Company and each of its subsidiaries have all franchises,
permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or regulatory
authorizations and approvals necessary for the conduct of their respective
businesses as now being conducted by them unless the failure to possess
such franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or
regulatory authorizations and approvals, individually or in the aggregate,
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

               (o)  TAXES.  The Company and each subsidiary has filed all
Tax Returns which it is required to file under applicable laws; all such
Tax Returns are true and accurate and has been prepared in compliance with
all applicable laws; the Company has paid all Taxes due and owing by it or
any subsidiary (whether or not such Taxes are required to be shown on a
Tax Return) and have withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing
authorities all Taxes which it is required to withhold from amounts paid
or owing to any employee, stockholder, creditor or other third parties;
and since December 31, 1999, the charges, accruals and reserves for Taxes
with respect to the Company (including any provisions for deferred income
taxes) reflected on the books of the Company are adequate to cover any Tax
liabilities of the Company if its current tax year were treated as ending
on the date hereof.

          No claim has been made by a taxing authority in a jurisdiction
where the Company does not file tax returns that the Company or any
subsidiary is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction.  There
are no foreign, federal, state or local tax audits or administrative or
judicial proceedings pending or being conducted with respect to the
Company or any subsidiary; no information related to Tax matters has been
requested by any foreign, federal, state or local taxing authority; and,
except as disclosed above, no written notice indicating an intent to open
an audit or other review has been received by the Company or any
subsidiary from any foreign, federal, state or local taxing authority.
There are no material unresolved questions or claims concerning the
Company's Tax liability.  The Company (A) has not executed or entered into
a closing agreement pursuant to Section 7121 of the Internal Revenue Code
or any predecessor provision thereof or any similar provision of state,
local or foreign law; and (B) has not agreed to or is required to make any
adjustments pursuant to Section 481 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code or
any similar provision of state, local or foreign law by reason of a change
in accounting method initiated by the Company or any of its subsidiaries
or has any knowledge that the IRS has proposed any such adjustment or
change in accounting method, or has any application pending with any
taxing authority requesting permission for any changes in accounting
methods that relate to the business or operations of the Company.  The
Company has not been a United States real property holding corporation
within the meaning of Section 897(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code
during the applicable period specified in Section 897(c)(1)(A)(ii) of the
Internal Revenue Code.

          The Company has not made an election under Section 341(f) of the
Internal Revenue Code.  The Company is not liable for the Taxes of another
person that is not a subsidiary of the Company under (A) Treas. Reg.
Section 1.1502-6 (or comparable provisions of state, local or foreign
law), (B) as a transferee or successor, (C) by contract or indemnity or
(D) otherwise.  The Company is not a party to any tax sharing agreement.
The Company has not made any payments, is not obligated to make payments
nor is it a party to an agreement that could obligate it to make any
payments that would not be deductible under Section 280G of the Internal
Revenue Code.

neither this Agreement or the Schedules hereto nor any other documents,
certificates or instruments furnished to the Purchaser by or on behalf of
the Company or any subsidiary in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement contain any untrue statement of a material

                              DRAW DOWN TERMS

          Section 6.1.   DRAW DOWN TERMS.  Subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

               (a)  The Company, may, in its sole discretion, issue and
exercise a draw down (a "Draw Down") during each Draw Down Pricing Period,
which Draw Down the Purchaser will be obligated to accept for a period of
24 months commencing immediately after the Effective Date.

               (b)  Only one Draw Down shall be allowed in each Draw Down
Pricing Period. There shall be at least five (5) Trading Days between Draw
Down Pricing Periods.  The price per share paid by the Purchaser shall be
based on the Average Daily Price on each separate Trading Day during the
Draw Down Pricing Period.  The number of shares of Common Stock purchased
by the Purchaser with respect to each Draw Down shall be determined on a
daily basis during each Draw Down Pricing Period and settled on, (i) as to
the 1st through the 11th Trading Days after a Draw Down Pricing Period
commences (the "First Settlement Period"), on the 13th Trading Day after a
Draw Down Pricing Period commences and (ii) as to the 12th through the
22nd Trading Days after a Draw Down Pricing Period commences (the "Second
Settlement Period"), the 24th Trading Day after a Draw Down Pricing
Period. (each, a "Settlement Date" and the First and Second Settlement
Periods collectively referred to as "Settlement Periods").  In connection
with each Draw Down Pricing Period, the Company may set the Threshold
Price.  If the Average Daily Price on any day within the Draw Down Pricing
Period is less than the Threshold Price, the Company shall not sell and
the Purchaser shall not be obligated to purchase the Shares otherwise to
be purchased for such day.

               (c)  The minimum Investment Amount shall be $250,000
(except that if the remaining Commitment Amount is less than $250,000,
then the Investment Amount shall equal such remaining Commitment Amount)
and the maximum Investment Amount shall be $1,500,000; provided, however,
the maximum Investment Amount during any Draw Down Pricing Period shall be
limited pursuant to the following formula:  4.5% of the weighted average
price for the Common Stock for the three (3) month period immediately
prior to the Commencement Date (defined below) multiplied by the total
trading volume in respect of the Common Stock for the three (3) month
period immediately prior to the Commencement Date.

               (d)  The number of Shares of Common Stock to be issued in
connection with each Draw Down shall be a number of shares equal to the
sum of the quotients (for each trading day within the Draw Down Pricing
Period) of (x) 1/22nd of the Draw Down amount and (y) the Purchase Price
on each Trading Day within the Draw Down Pricing Period, subject to the
following adjustments:

                    (i)  If the Average Daily Price on a given Trading Day
is less than the Threshold Price, then the  Draw Down will be reduced by
1/22nd  and that day shall be withdrawn from the Draw Down Pricing Period;
and

                    (ii) If trading of the Common Stock on the Principal
Market is suspended for more than three (3) hours, in the aggregate, on
any Trading Day during the Draw Down Pricing Period, then the Draw Down
shall be reduced by 1/22nd and that day shall be withdrawn from the Draw
Down Pricing Period.

               (e)  The Company must inform the Purchaser by delivering a
draw down notice, in the form of EXHIBIT D hereto (the "Draw Down
Notice"), via facsimile transmission in accordance with Section 9.4 as to
the amount of the Draw Down (the " Investment Amount") the Company wishes
to exercise before the first day of the Draw Down Pricing Period (the
"Commencement Date").  If the Commencement Date is to be the date of the
Draw Down Notice, the Draw Down Notice must be delivered to and receipt
confirmed by the Purchaser at least one hour before trading commences on
such date.  At no time shall the Purchaser be required to purchase more
than the maximum Draw Down amount for a given Draw Down Pricing Period so
that if the Company chooses not to exercise the maximum permitted Draw
Down in a given Draw Down Pricing Period the Purchaser is not obligated to
and shall not purchase more than the scheduled maximum amount in a
subsequent Draw Down Pricing Period.

               (f)  On or before each Settlement Date, the Shares
purchased by the Purchaser shall be delivered to The Depository Trust
Company ("DTC") on the Purchaser's behalf.  Upon the Company delivering
whole shares of Common Stock to the Purchaser or its designees via DWAC by
1:00 pm EST, the Purchaser shall wire transfer immediately available funds
to the Company's designated account on the such day.  Upon the Company
delivering whole shares of Common Stock to the Purchaser or its designees
via DWAC after 1:00 pm EST, the Purchaser shall wire transfer next day
available funds to the Company's designated account on such day.  In the
event the Purchaser elects to use the Escrow Agent, the Shares shall be
credited by the Company to the DTC account designated by the Purchaser
upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of payment for the Draw Down into the
Escrow Agent's trust account as provided in the Escrow Agreement. The
Escrow Agent shall be directed to pay the purchase price to the Company,
net of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500) as escrow expenses to
the Escrow Agent and  any brokerage or placement agent fees as set forth
in the Escrow Agreement.  The delivery of the Shares into the Purchaser's
DTC account in exchange for payment therefor shall be referred to herein
as "Settlement".

twenty-four (24) months from the Effective Date.  The Company may

Purchaser shall fail to fund a properly noticed Draw Down within three (3)
Trading Days of a Settlement Date.

          Section 7.2.   EFFECT OF TERMINATION.  In the event of
termination by the Company or the Purchaser, written notice thereof shall
forthwith be given to the other party and the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement shall be terminated without further action by either party.
If this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 7.1 herein, this
Agreement shall become void and of no further force and effect, except for
Sections 9.1 and 9.2, and Article VIII herein.  Nothing in this Section
7.2 shall be deemed to release the Company or the Purchaser from any
liability for any breach under this Agreement, or to impair the rights of
the Company and the Purchaser to compel specific performance by the other
party of its obligations under this Agreement.

                               ARTICLE VIII

                              INDEMNIFICATION

          Section 8.1.   GENERAL INDEMNITY.  The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser (and its directors, officers,
affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all
losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees, charges and disbursements)
incurred by the Purchaser as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of
the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein.
The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its
directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns from and
against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees,
charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company as result of any
inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants
made by the Purchaser herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the Purchaser shall be liable under this Section 8.1 for only that
amount as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Purchaser as a result
of the sale of Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement.

          Section 8.2.   INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE.  Any party entitled to
indemnification under this Article VIII (an "indemnified party") will give
written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a
claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party
entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein
shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this
Article VIII except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually
prejudiced by such failure to give notice.  In case any action, proceeding
or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which
indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be
entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of
counsel to the indemnified party a conflict of interest between it and the
indemnifying party may exist with respect of such action, proceeding or
claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to the indemnified party.  In the event that the indemnifying party
advises an indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for
indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of
any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its
election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense,
any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time
after it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its
option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or
claim.  In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in
writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim,
proceeding or action, the indemnified party's costs and expenses arising
out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or
proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder.  The
indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in
connection with any settlement negotiations or defense of any such action
or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying
party all information reasonably available to the indemnified party which
relates to such action or claim.  The indemnifying party shall keep the
indemnified party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the
defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto.  If the
indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the
indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with
counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense.  The indemnifying
party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or
proceeding effected without its prior written consent.  Notwithstanding
anything in this Article VIII to the contrary, the indemnifying party
shall not, without the indemnified party's prior written consent, settle
or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect
thereof which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or
which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by
the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from
all liability in respect of such claim.  The indemnification required by
this Article VIII shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof
during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are
received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, within ten
(10) Trading Days of written notice thereof to the indemnifying party so
long as the indemnified party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys if
it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such
party was not entitled to indemnification.  The indemnity agreements
contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or
similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or
others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to.

                                ARTICLE IX

Agreement or incurred in connection with the enforcement of this
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement,

accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is
accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or
injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this

          Section 9.6.   HEADINGS.  The article, section and subsection
headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not
constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and shall not be
deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

          Section 9.7.   SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors
and assigns.  After the Initial Closing, the assignment by a party to this
Agreement of any rights hereunder shall not affect the obligations of such
party under this Agreement.

          Section 9.8.   NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES.  This Agreement is
intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
permitted successors and assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may
any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.

          Section 9.9.   GOVERNING LAW/ARBITRATION.  This Agreement shall
be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of New York, without giving effect to the choice of law provisions.
Any dispute under this Agreement or any Exhibit attached hereto shall be
submitted to arbitration under the American Arbitration Association (the
"AAA") in New York City, New York, and shall be finally and conclusively
determined by the decision of a board of arbitration consisting of three
(3) members (hereinafter referred to as the "Board of Arbitration")
selected as according to the rules governing the AAA.  The Board of
Arbitration shall meet on consecutive business days in New York City, New
York, and shall reach and render a decision in writing (concurred in by a
majority of the members of the Board of Arbitration) with respect to the
amount, if any, which the losing party is required to pay to the other
party in respect of a claim filed.  In connection with rendering its
decisions, the Board of Arbitration shall adopt and follow the laws of the
State of New York.  To the extent practical, decisions of the Board of
Arbitration shall be rendered no more than thirty (30) calendar days
following commencement of proceedings with respect thereto.  The Board of
Arbitration shall cause its written decision to be delivered to all
parties involved in the dispute. The Board of Arbitration shall be
authorized and is directed to enter  a default judgment against any party
refusing to participate in the arbitration proceeding within thirty days
of any deadline for such participation. Any decision made by the Board of
Arbitration (either prior to or after the expiration of such thirty (30)
calendar day period) shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties
to the dispute, and entitled to be enforced to the fullest extent
permitted by law and entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The
prevailing party shall be awarded its costs, including attorneys' fees,
from the non-prevailing party as part of the arbitration award.  Any party
shall have the right to seek injunctive relief from any court of competent
jurisdiction in any case where such relief is available.  The prevailing
party in such injunctive action shall be awarded its costs, including
attorney's fees, from the non-prevailing party.

          Section 9.10.  COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute
one and the same instrument and shall become effective when counterparts
have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties hereto,
it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.
Execution may be made by delivery by facsimile.

          Section 9.11.  PUBLICITY.  Except as required by applicable law
or regulation, prior to the Initial Closing, neither the Company nor the
Purchaser shall issue any press release or otherwise make any public
statement or announcement with respect to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby or the existence of this Agreement.
After the Initial Closing, the Company may issue a press release or
otherwise make a public statement or announcement with respect to this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the existence of this
Agreement; provided, however, that prior to issuing any such press
release, making any such public statement or announcement, the Company
obtains the prior consent of the Purchaser which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.

          Section 9.12.  SEVERABILITY.  The provisions of this Agreement
are severable and, in the event that any court or officials of any
regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one
or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this
Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a
provision of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be reformed and
construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or
part of such provision, had never been contained herein, so that such
provisions would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent
possible, so long as such construction does not materially adversely
effect the economic rights of either party hereto.

          Section 9.13.  FURTHER ASSURANCES.  From and after the date of
this Agreement, upon the request of the Purchaser or the Company, each of
the Company and the Purchaser shall execute and deliver such instruments,
documents and other writings as may be reasonably necessary or desirable
to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes
of this Agreement.

          Section 9.14.  EFFECTIVENESS OF AGREEMENT.  This Agreement shall
become effective only upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the
Initial Closing set forth in Article I of the Escrow Agreement.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this
Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorize officer as of
this 21st day of July, 2000.
