The Company and Executive desire to enter into an agreement pursuant to
which Executive shall purchase, and the Company shall sell to Executive, (i) 800

The parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Executive Stock.
-- -----------------------------------------
(1) Upon execution of this Agreement, Executive shall purchase, and the
Company shall sell to Executive, 800 shares of Common Stock and 120 shares of
Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $200,000. The Company shall

the condition that Executive causes the XXX to be bound by the provisions of
this Agreement to the same extent as Executive is bound. If Executive makes
such an election, the Company shall take all reasonably necessary or desirable
action to facilitate such purchase by the XXX.
(2) In connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares hereunder,
Executive represents and warrants to the Company that:
(1) Execu-tive Stock to be acquired by Executive pursuant to this Agreement
shall be acquired for Executive's own account and not with a view to, or
intention of, distribu-tion thereof in violation of the Securities Act, or any
applicable state securities laws, and Executive shall not dispose of any shares
of Executive Stock in contravention of the Securities Act or any applicable
state securities laws.

sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and
benefits of an investment in Executive Stock.
-60-
(3) Executive is able to bear the economic risk of his or her investment in
Executive Stock for an indefinite period of time. Executive understands that
shares of Executive Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act and,
therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequent-ly registered under the
Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.
(4) Executive has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers
concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of Executive Stock and has
had full access to (A) such other information concerning the Company and the
offering of Executive Stock hereunder as he or she has requested and (B) such
other information which Executive deemed necessary and desirable to make an
informed investment decision regarding the purchase of Executive Stock
hereunder.
(5) This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement by Executive does not and shall not
conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement, contract or
instrument to which Executive is a party or any judgment, order or decree to
which Executive is subject.
(3) As an inducement to the Company to issue Executive Stock to Executive
hereunder, and as a condition thereto, Executive acknowledges and agrees that:
(1) neither the issuance of Executive Stock to Executive hereunder nor any
provision contained herein shall entitle Executive to remain in the employment
of the Company or its subsidiaries or affect the right of the Company or its
subsidiaries to terminate Executive's employment at any time; and
(2) neither the Company nor its subsidiaries shall have any duty or
obligation to disclose to Executive, and Executive shall have no right to be
advised of, any information regarding the Company or its subsidiaries at any
time prior to, upon or in connection with the repurchase of Executive Stock upon
the termination of Executive's employment with the Company or its
subsidiaries or as otherwise provided hereunder.

been executed and delivered, and Executive Stock has been issued hereunder, in
connection with and as a part of the compensation and incentive arrangements
between the Company and Executive.
