Article III
Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers
The Purchasers hereby, severally and not jointly, represent and warrant to
the Company as follows:
Section 3.1. Organization. Each Purchaser that is not an individual is
either a corporation, limited liability company, general partnership or limited
partnership, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. Schedule 3.1 hereto sets forth the
type of entity and the jurisdiction of organization for each Purchaser that is
not an individual.
Except as set forth in Schedule 3.1, each of the Purchasers is a "U.S.
person" as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code. Each
Purchaser that is a U.S. person has previously provided the Company with a
completed Form W-9 certifying that such Purchaser is not subject to back-up
withholding with respect to amounts payable to such Purchaser by the Company.
Each Purchaser that is not a U.S. person has previously provided the Company
with a completed Form W-8 certifying that such Purchaser is not subject to
certain U.S. information return reporting or back-up withholding with respect to
amounts payable to such Purchaser by the Company.
Section 3.2. Authorization. Each Purchaser that is not an individual has
the power and authority (corporate, limited liability company, partnership and
other) to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations
hereunder, all of which have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate,
limited liability company or partnership action. Each Purchaser that is an
individual has the capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform
his or her obligations hereunder. Each such individual Purchaser is under no
impairment or other disability, legal, physical, mental or otherwise, that would
preclude or limit the ability of such Purchaser to perform his or her
obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by each Purchaser and constitutes a valid and binding
agreement of such Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance
with its terms.
Section 3.3. Access to Information. The Purchasers have received copies of
the SEC Documents or have otherwise examined copies of such SEC Documents to the
extent they deemed necessary or advisable to evaluate the risks and merits of an
investment in the Company. Any Purchaser formed for the purpose of investing in
the Securities or the Additional Securities (a "New Purchaser") has provided
access to such SEC Documents to each investor in such Purchaser (the
"Investors"). In addition, the Purchasers and their respective purchaser
representatives, if any, have had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive
answers from representatives of the Company concerning the business of the
Company, its condition and prospects (financial and other) and the terms and
conditions of the offering of the Securities.
Section 3.4. Accredited Investor. Each Purchaser is an "Accredited
Investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501 of the rules and regulations of
the Commission promulgated under the Securities Act. No offering or sale of
interests in any Purchaser or any other security of such Purchaser was made to
any person, other than such "Accredited Investors." Schedule 3.4 hereto sets
forth a list of the New Purchasers. Other than such New Purchasers, no Purchaser
was formed for the purpose of investing in the Securities.
Section 3.5. Investment Intent. (a) Each Purchaser is acquiring the
Securities for its own account for investment only and not for or with a view to
resale or distribution. No Purchaser
has entered into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
person to sell, transfer or pledge to such person or anyone else the Securities
and no Purchaser has any present plans or intentions to enter into any such
contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement.
(b) Each Purchaser has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of
losing its entire investment in the Securities, is prepared to bear the economic
risk of its investment therein for an indefinite time and can afford to sustain
a complete loss of its investment therein.
(c) The overall commitment of each Purchaser to investments which are not
readily marketable is not disproportionate to its net worth, and an investment
in the Securities will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive.
Each Purchaser's need for diversification in its investment portfolio will not
be impaired by an investment in the Company.
(d) Each Purchaser has adequate means of satisfying its short term needs
for cash and has no present need for liquidity which would require it to sell
its Securities or any interest therein.
(e) Each Purchaser has substantial experience in making investment
decisions of this type and/or is relying on its own advisors in making this
investment decision and, therefore, either alone or together with its advisors,
has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Company.
(f) Each Purchaser understands that the Securities constitute restricted
securities within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act,
and that none of the Securities, or any interest therein, may be sold except
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or in a
transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act, and understands
the meaning and effect of such restriction.
(g) Each Purchaser has considered and, to the extent such Purchaser
believed such discussion was necessary, discussed with its professional legal,
tax and financial advisers the suitability of an investment in the Company for
such Purchaser's particular tax and financial situation and each Purchaser has
determined that the Securities are a suitable investment for it.
(h) EACH PURCHASER UNDERSTANDS THAT AN INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES BEING
PURCHASED BY IT INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION,
RISKS RELATING TO THE COMPANY's HISTORY OF LOSSES, RISKS RELATING TO THE RECENT
CHANGE IN THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS FOCUS, RISKS RELATING TO THE COMPANY'S
DEPENDENCE UPON THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW MARKETS OF UNCERTAIN SIZE AND GROWTH
PROSPECTS, THE COMPANY's DEFAULTS UNDER SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF ITS INDEBTEDNESS
AND OUTSTANDING PREFERRED STOCK, THE COMPANY'S CONTINUING NEED FOR ADDITIONAL
CAPITAL, THE Company's NEED FOR LIQUIDITY, THE EFFECTS OF COMPETITION, THE
COMPANY'S RELIANCE ON KEY PERSONNEL, THE COMPANY'S DEPENDENCE ON TECHNOLOGY AND
TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION, THE EFFECTS OF
GOVERNMENT REGULATION OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY, THE RESTRICTIONS ON
TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES, THE SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS OF THE DEBENTURES,
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE
COMPANY AND THE DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY, and RISKS RELATING TO THE
SUCCESSFUL EXECUTION OF THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS AND OPERATING STRATEGY.
(i) Each New Purchaser has received representations and warranties from
each Investor in such New Purchaser similar to those contained in this Section
3.5, and such representations and warranties specifically authorize the Company
to rely thereon.
(j) The offer and sale of interests in each New Purchaser to the Investors
therein did not require registration under the provisions of the Securities Act
or any applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws. Each New Purchaser
complied in all material respects with the requirements of applicable state
securities or "blue sky" laws with respect to such offer and sale.
(k) The placement materials used by each New Purchaser or its agents in
connection with the offer and sale of interests in such New Purchaser did not
contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however,
that no representation or warranty is made with respect to information regarding
the Company and mmTech provided to any such New Purchaser by the Company
expressly for use in such placement materials.
Section 3.6. Financial Resources. Each Purchaser has cash or credit
facilities presently available to meet all of its payment obligations hereunder.
Section 3.7. Brokers. No person is or will be entitled to a broker's,
finder's, investment banker's, financial adviser's or similar fee from any
Purchaser in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby.
Section 3.8. Accuracy of Representations. No representation or warranty
made by the Purchaser in this Agreement or any document delivered, or to be
delivered, by it or on its behalf pursuant hereto contains any untrue statement
of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained herein or therein not misleading.

counsel to the Purchaser wishing to effect such transfer, reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, that such transfer does not require registration

transfer agent to, promptly register any such Permitted Transfer on the books of
the Company; provided,
however, that in connection with any such Permitted Transfer, the Permitted

sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Securities, or any interest
therein (a "Transfer") (other than a Permitted Transfer), without the prior
written consent of the Company which may be withheld by the Company in its sole
discretion; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prohibit any
Purchaser from converting a Debenture in accordance with the terms thereof.
Subject to the restrictions set forth in paragraph (a) above, from and after the

Article V
Right of First Refusal
Section 5.1. Right of First Refusal. (a) If the Company proposes to obtain
additional financing (a "Financing") prior to September 30, 1999 from a third
party, the Company shall first give to the Purchasers a notice (an "Offer
Notice") setting forth in reasonable detail the amount, structure and other
terms of the proposed Financing. The Purchasers shall thereafter have the
exclusive right (the "Refusal Right"), upon written notice given to the Company
by the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the
Debentures (the "Majority Holders") no later than ten business days after
receipt of the Offer Notice, to provide the Financing to the Company on the
terms set forth in the Offer Notice (an "Acceptance Notice"). An Acceptance
Notice shall constitute an irrevocable joint and several commitment by the
Purchasers executing such Acceptance Notice (the "Accepting Purchasers") to
provide the Company with the Financing on the terms specified in the Offer
Notice. The obligation to provide the Financing may be allocated among the
Accepting Purchasers, or any one or more of them, as the Accepting Purchasers
may determine in their sole discretion. The closing of the Financing shall take
place on such date, no less than ten and no more than thirty days after the date
of the Acceptance Notice, as the Company and the Accepting Holders may agree.
(b) If the Purchasers do not provide an Acceptance Notice within the ten
business-day period set forth in clause (a) above, the Company shall have the
right for up to 90 days thereafter to obtain a Financing on the terms specified
in the Offer Notice from one or more third parties (including on or more of the
Purchasers).
Section 5.2. Exceptions. The Refusal Right granted to the Purchasers in
Section 5.1 hereof shall not apply to (i) a Qualifying Offering, (ii) any
replacement, renewal, extension,
modification or amendment of the Company's current lending facility with North
Fork Bank provided, however, that the principal amount of such facility after
giving effect thereto shall not exceed $2.8 million, (iii) any trade credit
(whether or not evidenced by a note or other instruments), (iv) any receivables
financing arrangements, (v) the issuance of securities in connection with the
acquisition of the assets or stock of any other business, (vi) the exercise or
conversion of any security outstanding on the issuance date of the Debentures,
(vii) the issuance and exercise of awards made from and after the date hereof
pursuant to the Company's 1997 Stock Compensation Program (the "Plan"), or
(viii) pursuant to any other plan or arrangement approved by the Company's Board
of Directors or the Compensation Committee thereof subject to an aggregate limit
of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuances pursuant to clauses (vii) and
(viii) (subject to adjustment in the circumstances set forth in the Plan or such
arrangements).
