referred to hereinafter as the "Conversion Shares."
(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Company shall sell and issue to each Investor, and each Investor
agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, that number of
Shares set forth opposite each Investor's name on Exhibit A attached hereto for
the purchase price of $2.78 per share as set forth thereon.

1.4 Additional Closings. If the full number of Series D

have the right, at any time prior to August 8, 2000 (the "Subsequent Closing
Date"), to sell the remaining authorized but unissued shares of Series D
Preferred Stock to one or more additional purchasers as determined by the
Company, or to any Purchaser hereunder who wishes to acquire additional shares

encumbrances caused or created by the Company; provided, however, that the
Conversion Shares may be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or
federal securities laws as set forth herein, as may be required by changes in
such law and as contemplated by the Financing Documents.

Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D and no exceptions have been
taken by any such employee, consultant or officer to the terms of such
agreement. The Company, after reasonable investigation, is not aware that any of
its employees, officers or consultants are in violation thereof, and the Company
will use its best efforts to prevent any such violation.
2.7 Patents and Trademarks. The Company has sufficient title and
ownership of all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights,

Company is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract
(including
-6-
8
licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject
to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that
would interfere with the use of his or her best efforts to promote the interests
of the Company or that would conflict with the Company's business as proposed to
be conducted. Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the
carrying on of the Company's business by the employees of the Company, nor the
conduct of the Company's business as proposed, will, to the best of the
Company's knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms,
conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract,
covenant or instrument under which any of such employees is now obligated. The
Company does not believe it is or will be necessary to utilize any inventions of
any of its employees (or people it currently intends to hire) made prior to
their employment by the Company.
2.8 Financial Statements. The Company has delivered to each
Investor (i) its unaudited balance sheet as of March 31, 2000 and unaudited
statement of income for the period from January 1, 2000 to March 31, 2000 and

thereto, are complete and correct in all material respects and have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on
a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated, except as disclosed
therein, and present fairly the financial condition and position of the Company
as of March 31, 2000; provided, however, that the unaudited financial statements
are subject to normal recurring year-end audit adjustments (which are not
expected to be material), and do not contain all footnotes required under
generally accepted accounting principles.
2.9 Changes. Since March 31, 2000, there has not been:
(a) Any change in the assets, liabilities, financial
condition or operations of the Company from that reflected in the Financial

event or condition of any character, any of which individually or in the
aggregate has had or is expected to have a material adverse effect on such
assets, liabilities, financial condition or operations of the Company;
(b) Any resignation or termination of any key officers
of the Company; and the Company, to the best of its knowledge, does not know of
the impending resignation or termination of employment of any such officer;
(c) Any material change, except in the ordinary course
of business, in the contingent obligations of the Company by way of guaranty,
endorsement, indemnity, warranty or otherwise;
-7-
9
(d) Any damage, destruction or loss, whether or not
covered by insurance, materially and adversely affecting the properties,
business or prospects or financial condition of the Company;

stockholder, employee, officer or director of the Company, other than advances
made in the ordinary course of business;
(f) Any declaration or payment of any dividend or other
distribution of the assets of the Company;

or guaranteed by the Company, except those for immaterial amounts and for
current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business; or any waiver
by the Company of a valuable right or of a material debt owed to it;
(h) Any sale, assignment or transfer of any patents,
trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets or other intangible assets; and
(i) To the Company's knowledge, any change in any

materially and adversely affects the business, assets, liabilities, financial
condition, operations or prospects of the Company, including compensation
agreements with the Company's employees.
2.10 Liabilities. The Company has no material liabilities and
knows of no material contingent liabilities not disclosed in the Financial
Statements, except current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of
business subsequent to March 31, 2000, which have not been, either in any
individual case or in the aggregate, materially adverse.
2.11 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation pending or currently threatened against the Company that questions
the validity of this Agreement or the right of the Company to enter into it, or
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or which might result,
either individually or in the aggregate, in any material adverse changes in the
assets, condition, affairs or prospects of the Company, financially or
otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership of the Company, nor is
the Company aware that there is any basis for the foregoing. The foregoing
includes, without limitation, actions pending or threatened (or any basis
therefor known to the Company) involving the prior employment of any of the
Company's employees, their use in connection with the Company's business of any
information or techniques allegedly proprietary to any of their former
employers, or their obligations under any agreements with prior employers. The
Company is not a party or subject to the provisions of any order, writ,
injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or
-8-
10
instrumentality. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation by the
Company currently pending or which the Company intends to initiate.

violation or default of any provision of its Certificate or Bylaws or any
provision of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, instrument, judgment,
order, writ, or decree to which it is a party or by which it is bound or, to its
knowledge, of any provision of federal or state statute, rule or regulation
applicable to the Company which would materially and adversely affect the
business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, operations or prospects of
the Company. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the
Rights Agreement and the Co-Sale Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not result in any such
material violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the
passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision,
instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract or an event which results
in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the
Company.
2.13 Offering. Subject in part to the accuracy of the Investors'
representations set forth in Section 3 hereof, the offer, sale and issuance of
the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement and the issuance of the Conversion
Shares upon the conversion of such Shares are exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
and the registration, qualification or compliance requirements of any applicable
blue sky or other state securities laws, and neither the Company nor any
authorized agent acting on its behalf will take any action that would cause the
loss of any such exemption.
2.14 Agreements; Action.
(a) There are no agreements, understandings or proposed
transactions between the Company and any of its officers, directors, affiliates,
or any affiliate thereof.
(b) There are no agreements, understandings,
instruments, contracts or proposed transactions to which the Company is a party
or by which it is bound which involve (i) obligations of, or payments to the
Company in excess of $25,000, or (ii) the license of any patent, copyright,

or family member of any such individual.

in excess of $75,000 in the aggregate, (iii) made any loans or advances to any

-9-
11
(d) The Company is not a party to and is not bound by
any contract, agreement or instrument, or subject to any restriction under its
Certificate or Bylaws, which materially adversely affects its business as now
conducted and as proposed to be conducted.
(e) The Company has not engaged in the past twelve (12)
months in any discussion (i) with any representative of any corporation or
corporations regarding the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into
any such corporation or corporations, (ii) with any corporation, partnership,
association or other business entity or any individual regarding the sale,
conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, or (iii) regarding any other form of liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company.
2.15 Labor Agreements and Actions. The Company is not bound by
or subject to (and none of its assets or properties is bound by or subject to)
any written or oral, express or implied, contract, commitment or arrangement
with any labor union, and no labor union has requested or, to the knowledge of
the Company, has sought to represent any of the employees, representatives or
agents of the Company. There is no strike or other labor dispute involving the
Company pending, or to the knowledge of the Company threatened, which could have
a material adverse effect on the assets, properties, financial condition,
operating results, or business of the Company (as such business is presently
conducted and as it is proposed to be conducted), nor is the Company aware of
any labor organization activity involving its employees. To the best of its
knowledge, the Company is not aware that any officer or key employee, or that
any group of key employees, intends to terminate their employment with the
Company, nor does the Company have a present intention to terminate the
employment of any of the foregoing. The employment of each officer and employee
of the Company is terminable at the will of the Company.
2.16 Tax Returns, Payments and Elections. The Company has filed
all tax returns and reports as required by law. These returns and reports are
true and correct in all material respects. The Company has paid all taxes and
other assessments due, except those contested by it in good faith which are
listed in the Schedule of Exceptions, attached hereto as Exhibit C. The
provision for taxes of the Company as shown in the Balance Sheet is adequate for
taxes due or accrued as of the date thereof. The Company has not elected
pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), to be
treated as a Subchapter S corporation or a collapsible corporation pursuant to
Section 1362(a) or Section 341(f) of the Code, respectively, nor has it made any
other elections pursuant to the Code (other than elections which relate solely
to methods of accounting, depreciation or amortization) which would have a
material effect on the Company, its financial condition, its business as
presently conducted or proposed to be conducted or any of its properties or
material assets.
2.17 Title to Property and Assets. The Company owns its property
and assets free and clear of all mortgages, liens, loans and encumbrances,
except such encumbrances and liens which arise in the ordinary course of
business and do not materially impair the Company's
-10-
12
ownership or use of such property or assets. With respect to the property and
assets it leases, the Company is in compliance with such leases and, to the best
of its knowledge, holds a valid leasehold interest free of any liens, claims or
encumbrances.
2.18 Registration Rights. Except as provided in the Rights
Agreement, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit E, the Company has not
granted or agreed to grant any registration rights, including piggyback rights,
to any person or entity.
2.19 Employee Benefit Plans. The Company does not have any
Employee Benefit Plan as defined in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, as amended.
2.20 Obligations of Management. Each officer of the Company is
currently devoting his or her full-time to the conduct of the business of the
Company. The Company is not aware of any officer or key employee or the Company
planning to work less than full-time at the Company in the future.
2.21 Environmental and Safety Laws. To the best of its
knowledge, the Company is not in violation of any applicable statute, law or
regulation relating to the environment or occupational health and safety, and to
its knowledge, no material expenditures are or will be required in order to
comply with any such existing statute, law or regulation.
2.22 Disclosure. The Company has fully provided each Investor
with all the information which such Investor has requested for deciding whether
to purchase the Shares and all information which the Company believes is
reasonably necessary to enable such Investor to make such decision. To the best
of the Company's knowledge, neither this Agreement, the Rights Agreement, the
Co-Sale Agreement nor any other statements or certificates made or delivered in
connection herewith, when taken as a whole, contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
herein or therein not misleading.
2.23 Section 83(b) Elections. To the Company's knowledge, all
elections and notices permitted by Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code
and analogous provisions of applicable state tax laws have been timely filed by
all employees who have purchased shares of the Company's common stock under
agreements that provide for the vesting of such shares.
2.24 Real Property Holding Corporation. The Company is not a
real property holding corporation within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code
Section 897(c)(2) and any regulations promulgated thereunder.

-11-

2.26 Investment Company Act. The Company is not an "investment
company", or a company "controlled" by an "investment", within the meaning of
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
3. Representations and Warranties of the Investor. Each Investor hereby
severally and not jointly represents and warrants that:
3.1 Authorization. This Agreement when executed and delivered by
such Investor shall constitute a valid and legally binding obligation,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar federal or
state laws affecting the rights of creditors and the effect of rules of law
governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made
with each Investor in reliance upon such Investor's representations and
warranties to the Company, which by such Investor's execution of this Agreement
such Investor hereby confirms, that the Shares to be received by such Investor
and the Conversion Shares (collectively, the "Securities") will be acquired for
investment for such Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not
with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such
Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or
otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, each Investor
further represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking,
agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant
participation to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the
Securities. Each Investor represents that it has full power and authority to
enter into this Agreement.
3.3 Disclosure of Information. Each Investor believes it has
received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding
whether to purchase the Shares. Each Investor further represents that it has had
an opportunity to ask questions, if any, and receive answers from the Company
regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares. The foregoing,
however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the
Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of the Investors to rely
thereon.
3.4 Investment Experience. Each Investor is an investor in
securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is
able to fend for itself, and bear the economic risk of its investment and has
such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Shares. If
other than an individual, Investor also represents it has not been organized for
the purpose of acquiring the Shares.
3.5 Regulation D. Each Investor is an "Accredited Investor" as
that term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
-12-
14
3.6 Restricted Securities. Each Investor understands that the
Shares it is purchasing (and the Conversion Shares) are characterized as
"restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are
being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering
and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be
resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited
circumstances. In this connection, each Investor represents that it is familiar
