business as proposed to be conducted. Neither the execution or 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 such employee is now obligated.

to the Company. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements and
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will not
result in any such 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.

3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with
---------------------------------
the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser's representation to the Company,
which by the Purchaser's execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser hereby
confirms, that the Securities to be acquired by the Purchaser will be acquired
for investment for the Purchaser'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 the
Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or
otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser
further represents that the Purchaser does not presently have any contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant
participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the
Securities. The Purchaser represents that it has full power and authority to
enter into this Agreement. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific
purpose of acquiring the Securities.
3.3 Disclosure of Information. The Purchaser has had an opportunity
-------------------------
to discuss the Company's business, management, financial affairs and the terms
and conditions of the offering of the Stock with the Company's management and
has had an opportunity to review the Company's facilities. The Purchaser
understands that such discussions, as well as the written information issued by
the Company, were intended to describe the aspects of the Company's business
which it believes to be material.
3.4 Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the
---------------------
Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act,
by reason of a specific exemption
-11-
from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among
other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of
the Purchaser's representations as expressed herein. The Purchaser understands
that the Securities are "restricted securities" under applicable U.S. federal
and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must
hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities
and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from
such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser
acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the
Securities for resale except as set forth in the Rights Agreement. The Purchaser
further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is
available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not
limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities,
and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser's
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to
satisfy.
3.5 No Public Market. The Purchaser understands that no public
----------------
market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company, and that the
Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the
Securities.
3.6 Legends. The Purchaser understands that the Securities, and any
-------
securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Securities, may bear one or
all of the following legends:
(a) "THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR

AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF

legended.
3.7 Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an accredited investor as
-------------------
defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
3.8 Foreign Investors. If the Purchaser is not a United States
-----------------
person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended), such Purchaser hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to
the full observance of the laws of its
-12-
jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Stock or any
use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its
jurisdiction for the purchase of the Stock, (ii) any foreign exchange
restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other

consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption,
