This note and warrant purchase agreement (the "Agreement") is made as
of the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) by and between Sunrise
Technologies International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
with its principal office at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx
00000, and Xxxxxx Ventures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, with
its principal office at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxx, Xxxxxx
00000, which is a signatory hereto (the "Purchaser").
RECITALS
--------
The Company is undertaking the placement and sale (the "Offering") of
$10,000,000 5% Convertible Subordinated Pay-In-Kind Notes due 2001 (the
"Notes") with Warrants (as hereinafter defined). The Notes will be
convertible into shares of the Company's $.001 par value common stock (the
"Common Stock") pursuant to the terms of the Notes at conversion prices
(each a "Conversion Price") as described in the Notes. The Company may, at
its option and in its sole discretion, in lieu of the payment in whole or
in part of interest in cash on the Notes, pay interest on the Notes through
the issuance of additional Notes (the "Secondary Notes") in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the amount of interest that would be payable with
respect to the Notes, if such interest were paid in cash. The Purchaser
will receive 148,950 warrants to purchase Common Stock (the "Warrants") for
the $10,000,000 in Notes purchased by the Purchaser. Each Warrant entitles
the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock for $.01 during the five
(5) year period commencing on the Closing Date (the "Warrant Shares"). The
Notes and Warrants will be sold by the Company to the Purchaser pursuant to
Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). The
offer and sale of Notes will only be made pursuant to the materials
supplied by the Company to the Purchaser, as supplemented (together with
all amendments, exhibits and attachments thereto, the "Offering
Materials").

and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
incorporation. The Company and the Subsidiary have all requisite power and
authority to own or lease their properties and to conduct their businesses
as now conducted. The Company holds all licenses and permits required for

have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or
results of operations of the Company taken as a whole. Each of the Company
and the Subsidiary is qualified as a foreign or domestic corporation and is
in good standing in all states where the conduct of its business or its
ownership or leasing of property requires such qualification, except where
failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the
business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company taken
as a whole.
3.2 CAPITALIZATION. The authorized, issued and outstanding
capital stock of the Company on September 30, 1998 is as set forth in the

Materials. Since September 30, 1998, there has been no material change in
the capitalization of the Company, except as described in Amendment No. 1

Materials. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock have
been duly authorized, validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.
Except as stated in the Offering Materials and except for rights granted
under the Company's stock plans, there are no existing subscriptions,
options, warrants, calls, commitments, agreements, conversion or other
rights of any character (contingent or otherwise) to purchase or otherwise
acquire from the Company at any time, or upon the happening of any stated
event, any shares of the capital stock of the Company.
3.3 AUTHORITY. The Company has all requisite corporate power
and authority to enter this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement
in substantially the form included in the Offering Materials (the
"Registration Rights Agreement"), and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly authorized by
all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and upon their
execution and delivery by the Company, such documents will constitute valid
and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with their terms, except as the indemnification provisions of
the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by principles of public
policy, and subject as to enforceability to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws relating to or
affecting creditor's rights from time to time in effect and subject to
general equity principles.
3.4 SECURITIES FILINGS. The Company has filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") the documents set forth in
the Offering Materials (the "SEC Filings"). The Company has filed with the
SEC all reports and all other filings required to be filed with the SEC
under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

material respects to the requirements of the Act and the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the rules and
regulations of the SEC thereunder as of their respective filing dates and
did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading. The documents or portions thereof that
were incorporated by reference in the SEC Filings pursuant to the
requirements of the Exchange Act, when such incorporated documents or
portions were first filed with the SEC, conformed in all material respects
with any applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations of the SEC thereunder.
(b) The consolidated financial statements of the
Company included in the SEC Filings fairly presented in all material
respects the financial position and results of operations of the Company
and the Subsidiary at their respective dates and for the respective periods
to which they apply; and such financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied throughout the periods involved, except as otherwise stated
therein.
3.5 ISSUANCE OF THE NOTES. The Notes and the Secondary
Notes, when issued against payment therefor pursuant to the terms of this

(ii) freely transferable and free of all liens and encumbrances excepting
only restrictions on transfer created by state and federal law and
encumbrances created by the Purchaser.
3.6 NO CONFLICT WITH LAW OR DOCUMENTS. The execution,
delivery and consummation of this Agreement and the Registration Rights

date, or the governing documents of the Subsidiary; or (b) result in any

foreign governmental authority is required to be made or obtained by the
Company in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby.
3.8 ABSENCE OF CERTAIN DEVELOPMENTS. Except as described in
the Offering Materials, since September 30, 1998, the Company has not: (a)
