Delaware. The Company has all requisite power and authority to own, operate and
lease its properties and to conduct its business as currently conducted. The
Company is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in
each jurisdiction in which its ownership or leasing of property or the conduct

Incorporation and By-laws, as in effect on the date hereof, copies of which are
attached hereto as Exhibit D. As used in this Agreement, "Material Adverse
Effect" means any event, circumstance or development which individually or in
the aggregate could have a material adverse effect on the business, properties,
operations, condition (financial or otherwise), assets, liabilities, tradability
of the Common Stock (excluding a failure of the Company to meet the minimum
stockholders' equity requirement contained in Rule 4310 of the Nasdaq
Marketplace Rules based on the stockholders' equity reflected in the Company's

approved and authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the
Company, and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company
and constitutes, and each of the Ancillary Agreements, when executed and
delivered by the Company at the Closings, will constitute, a legal, valid, and
binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its
respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws
relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights and remedies or by other
equitable principles of general application. The execution, delivery, and
performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements in
accordance with their respective terms, and the consummation by the Company of
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, will not result (with or
without the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both) in any conflict,
violation, breach, or default, or the creation of any Lien, or the termination,
acceleration, vesting, or modification of any right or obligation, under or in
respect of (x) the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws
of the Company, (y) any judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation

otherwise).
(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 2.4, the Company does not
have, is not bound by, and has no obligation to grant or enter into, any
outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, commitments, or agreements
of any character calling for it to issue, deliver, or sell, or cause to be
issued, delivered, or sold, any shares of its capital stock, any other equity
security, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or representing
the right to subscribe for, purchase, or otherwise acquire any shares of its
capital stock or any other equity security.

conversion of the Debentures and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants) shall, upon issuance pursuant to the terms hereof
and/or the terms of the Debentures, as the case may be, be duly authorized and

statement with the SEC. The Company has established disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Company
and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material
information relating to the Company, including its subsidiaries, is made known
to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during
the period in which the Company's Form 10-KSB or 10-QSB, as the case may be, is
being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have evaluated the
effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of a date within 90
days prior to the filing date of the Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
2002 (such date, the "Evaluation Date"). The Company presented in the Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002 the conclusions of the certifying
officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based
on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there
have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls (as such
term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-B under the Exchange Act) or, to
the Company's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the
Company's internal controls.

shall be immediately notified and such proceeds shall be shared with the other
Investors on a pro-rata basis. To the extent that any Investor receives a

The Company acknowledges each of the following: The obligations of each Investor
participating in this transaction are several and not joint with the obligations
of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the
performance of the obligations of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein
or in any other agreement, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a "group" (within the meaning
of Sections 13 and 16 of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder),
in each case with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated
hereunder. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce
its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this
Agreement or out of the other agreements relating to this transaction, and it
shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional
party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Investor has been represented by
its own separate legal counsel (or has chosen not to be represented by legal
counsel) in its review and negotiation of this agreement and the related
transaction documents. The Company has elected to provide various Investors with
the same terms and agreements for the convenience of the Company and not because
it was required or requested to do so by the Investors.

Section 7.2 Waivers and Consents. For the purposes of this Agreement
and all agreements executed pursuant hereto, no course of dealing between the
Company and the Investors and no delay on the part of any party hereto in

rights hereof or thereof. No provision hereof may be waived except by a written
instrument signed by the party so waiving such provision.
Section 7.3 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue etc. This Agreement
shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of
the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of
law thereof. The state and federal courts of the State of New York located in
New York County shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any
claims or disputes between the Investors and the other party or parties hereto
pertaining directly or indirectly to this Agreement and all documents,
instruments and agreements executed pursuant hereto, or to any matter arising
therefrom (unless otherwise expressly provided for therein); the exclusive
choice of forum set forth in this Section 7.3 shall not be deemed to preclude
the enforcement of any judgment obtained in such forum or the taking of any
action to enforce the same in any other appropriate jurisdiction. All of the
parties hereto waive all rights to trial by jury in any action or proceeding
instituted by any party against any other party arising out of, on or by reason
of this Agreement or the documents and transactions contemplated herein.
Section 7.4 Headings. The descriptive headings in this Agreement have
been inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise
affect the construction or interpretation of any provision thereof or hereof.
Section 7.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously
in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered
shall be taken to be an original; but such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same document.
