1.01 The Securities. The Company has authorized the issuance and sale of
---------------
the Company's $300,000 principal amount 8% Subordinated Convertible Notes due
1997, (the "Notes"). The Notes shall be in the principal amount set forth in the
preceding sentence and shall otherwise be substantially in the form set forth in
Exhibit 1.01 hereto. The terms "Note" or "Notes" shall also include any note or
------- ----
notes delivered in exchange or replacement for the Notes. Any shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, and such shares when issued, are
herein referred to as the "Conversion Shares."
1.02 The Closing.
------------
The Company agrees to issue and sell to Thermo and PIC, and, subject to and
in reliance upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Thermo and PIC each
agrees to purchase the principal amount of the Notes, at par, set forth opposite
their names on Exhibit 1.02 hereto.
------- ----
Such transactions shall take place at a closing (the "Closing") to be held
at the offices of Thermo, on May 22, 1990, or on such other date and at such
time as may be mutually agreed upon. At the Closing, the Company will issue and
deliver the Notes, payable to the order of Thermo and PIC, respectively, against
delivery of checks payable to the order of the Company or wire transfer of funds
to an account specified by the Company.
1.03 Redemption of Notes. On or before May 31, 1997, the Company will
--------------------
redeem, without premium, the initial principal amount of the Notes, or such
lesser amount as may be then outstanding, together with all accrued and unpaid
interest then due thereon. On the stated or accelerated maturity of the Notes,
the Company will pay the principal amount of the Notes outstanding, together
with all accrued and unpaid interest then due thereon.
-2-
1.04 Transfer and Exchange of Notes. The registered holder of any Note or
------------------------------
Notes may, prior to maturity or prepayment thereof, surrender such Note at the
principal office of the Company for transfer or exchange to any assignee. Within
a reasonable time after notice to the Company from a registered holder of its
intention to make sure exchange and without expense (other than transfer taxes,
if any) to such registered holder, the Company shall issue in exchange therefor
another Note for the same aggregate principal amount as the unpaid principal
amount of the Note so surrendered (or in such multiples thereof as may be
requested by the registered holder) and having the same maturity and rate of
interest, containing the same provisions and subject to the same terms and
conditions as the Note so surrendered. Each new Note shall be made payable to
such Person or Persons, or registered assigns, as the registered holder of such
surrendered Note may designate, and such transfer or exchange shall be made in
such a manner that no gain or loss of principal or interest shall result
therefrom.
1.05 Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the
--------------------
Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note and, if
requested in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of
an indemnity bond or other agreement or security reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation
of such Note, the Company will issue a new Note, of like tenor and amount and
dated the date to which interest has been paid, in lieu of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Note; provided, however, if any Note of which Thermo or
-------- -------
PIC, their nominees or any of their subsidiaries or parents is the registered
holder is lost, stolen or destroyed, the affidavit of the president, treasurer
or assistant treasurer of the registered holder, including a representation to
the effect that such Note has not been negotiated and setting forth the
circumstances with respect to such loss, theft or destruction, shall be accepted
as satisfactory evidence thereof, and no indemnity bond or other security shall
be required as a condition to the execution and delivery by the Company of a
new Note in replacement of such lost, stolen or destroyed Note other than the
registered holder's written agreement to indemnify the Company.
1.06 Subordination. The Company, for itself, its successors and assigns,
-------------
covenants and agrees, and Thermo, PIC and each successor holder of the Notes by
his or its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Note, the payment
of the principal of and interest on each and all of the Notes shall be
subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter
set forth, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt (as hereinafter
defined) at any time outstanding.
-3-
(a) Payment of Senior Debt. In the event of any insolvency or
----------------------
bankruptcy proceedings, or any proceedings in connection therewith, relative to
the Company or to its property, or, in the event of any proceedings for the
Company of distribution or marshalling of its assets or any composition with
creditors of the Company, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy,
then and in any such event all Senior Debt shall be paid in full before any
payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other
property, shall be made on account of the Notes; and any such payment or
distribution, except securities that are subordinated and junior in right of
payment to the payment of all Senior Debt then outstanding in terms of
substantially the same tenor as this Section 1.06, which would, but for the
provisions hereof, be payable or deliverable with respect to the Notes shall be
paid or delivered directly to the holders of Senior Debt (or their duly
authorized representatives), in the proportions in which they hold the same,
until all Senior Debt shall have been paid in full, and every holder of the
Notes by becoming a holder thereof shall have designated and appointed the
holder or holders of Senior Debt (and their duly authorized representatives) as
his or its agents and attorneys-in-fact to demand, xxx for, collect and receive
such Senior Debt holder's ratable share of all such payments and distributions
and to file any necessary proof of claim therefor and to take all other action
(including the right to vote such Senior Debt holder's ratable share of the
Notes), in the name of the holders (or their authorized representatives), that
such Senior Debt holder may determine to be necessary or appropriate for the
enforcement of this Section 1.06. Thermo and each successor holder of the Note
by its or his acceptance thereof agrees to execute, at the request of the
Company, a separate agreement with any holder of Senior Debt on the terms set
forth in this Section 1.06.
(b) No Payment on Note Under Certain Conditions.
-------------------------------------------
In the event that:
(i) any default occurs in the payment of principal of or
interest on any Senior Debt and during the continuance of such default, or
(if a shorter period) until such payment has been made or such default has
been cured or waived in writing by such holder of Senior Debt; or
(ii) the maturity of any Senior Debt is accelerated by any holder
thereof because of a default with respect thereto and until such
acceleration has been rescinded or said Senior Debt has been paid;
-4-
then and during the continuance of any of such events no payment shall be made
by the Company, directly or indirectly, on account of the principal of or
interest on the Notes.
(c) Payments Held in Trust. In case any payment or distribution shall
-----------------------
be paid or delivered to any holder of the Notes in violation or contravention of
the terms of this subordination, before all Senior Debt shall have been paid in
full, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for and paid and
delivered to the holders of Senior Debt (or their duly authorized
representatives) until all Senior Debt shall have been paid in full.
(d) Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Debt and
------------
until the Notes shall be paid in full, the holders of the Notes shall be
subrogated to the rights of the holders of the Senior Debt (to the extent of
payments or distributions previously made to such holders of Senior Debt
pursuant to the provisions of subsections (a) and (c) of this Section 1.06) to
receive payments or distributions of assets of the Company applicable to the
Senior Debt. No such payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Debt
shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of
Senior Debt and the holders of the Notes, be deemed to be a payment by the
Company to or on account of the Notes; and for the purposes of such subrogation,
no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Debt to which the holders
of the Notes would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 1.06
shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of
Senior Debt and the holders of the Notes, be deemed to be a payment by the
Company to or on account of the Senior Debt.
(e) Scope of Section. The provisions of this Section 1.6 are intended
-----------------
solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of the
Notes, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Debt, on the other hand.
Nothing contained in this Section 1.06 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the
Notes is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company and its creditors,
other than the holders of Senior Debt, and the holders of the Notes, the
obligation of the Company, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay to the
holders of the Notes the principal of and interest on the Notes as and when the
same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms thereof, or to
affect the relative rights of the holders of the Senior Debt, nor shall anything
herein or therein prevent the holder of any Note from accepting any payment with
respect to such Note or exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by
applicable law upon default under such Note, subject to the rights, if any,
under this Section 1.06 of the holders of Senior Debt in respect of cash,
property or notes of the Company received by the holders of the Notes.
-5-
(f) Survival of Rights. The right of any present or future
-------------------
holder of Senior Debt to enforce subordination of the Notes pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 1.06 shall not at any time be prejudiced or impaired
by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or any such holder of
Senior Debt, including without limitation, any forbearance, waiver, consent,
compromise, amendment, extension, renewal or taking or release of security of or
in respect of any Senior Debt or by noncompliance by the Company with the terms
of such subordination regardless of any knowledge thereof such holder may have
or otherwise been charged with.
(g) Amendment or Waiver. The provisions of this Section
--------------------
1.06 may not be amended or waived in any manner that is detrimental to any
Senior Debt without the consent of the holders of all then existing Senior Debt.
(h) Senior Debt Defined. The term "Senior Debt" shall mean
--------------------
(i) all Indebtedness of the Company (which is not convertible into equity
securities of the Company and is not issued in conjunction with equity
securities of the Company or options or warrants to purchase equity securities
of the Company) for money borrowed, including any extension or renewals thereof,
whether outstanding on the date hereof or thereafter created or incurred, which
is not by its terms subordinate and junior to or on a parity with the Notes, and
(ii) all other indebtedness to which the obligations of the Notes shall be
expressly subordinated by the holders of the Notes in writing, citing this
Section 1.06.
(i) Proof of Subordination. Thermo agrees that it will
-----------------------
execute and deliver any other documents evidencing the subordination of the
Notes to Senior Debt that may be reasonably requested by the Company or the
holders of Senior Debt so long as none of the provisions contained in such
documents diminish the rights of Thermo in any manner.
1.07 Representations by Thermo and PIC. Each of Thermo and PIC
----------------------------------
represents that it is its present intention to acquire the Notes for its own
account and that the Notes are being and will be acquired for the purpose of
investment and not with a view to distribution or resale thereof. The
acquisition by each of Thermo and PIC of the Notes shall constitute a
confirmation by it of this representation.

ARTICLE III
CONVERSION OF THE NOTE
3.01 Conversion Right. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions
-----------------
of this Article III all or any part of the principal amount outstanding of any
Note and, at the option of the holder, all accrued and unpaid interest may be
converted at any time or from time to time into fully paid and non-assessable
shares of Common Stock.
3.02 Applicable Conversion Value. The price at which the outstanding
----------------------------
principal of any Note may be converted into Common Stock (the "Applicable
Conversion Value") shall, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided, be two
dollars ($2).
3.03 Adjustments for Sale of Common Stock at Less Than Applicable
------------------------------------------------------------
Conversion Value. Except for the issuance of up to 120,000 shares of the
-----------------
Company's Common Stock to employees, directors or consultants of the Company
pursuant to an option plan or plans approved by the Company's Board of Directors
(the "Reserved Employee Shares"), if the Company shall, while there are any
Notes outstanding, issue or sell shares of its Common Stock without
consideration or at a price per share less than the Applicable Conversion Value
in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale, then in each such case
such Applicable Conversion Value upon each such issuance or sale, except as
hereinafter provided, shall be lowered so as to be equal to an amount determined
by multiplying the Applicable Conversion Value by a fraction:
(1) the numerator of which shall be (a) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such
additional shares of Common Stock, plus (b) the number of shares of
Common Stock that the net aggregate consideration if any, received by the
Company for the total number of such additional shares of Common Stock so
issued would purchase at the Applicable Conversion Value in effect
immediately prior to such issuance; and
(2) the denominator of which shall be (a) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such
additional shares of Common Stock plus (b) the number of such additional
shares of Common Stock so issued.
For purposes of computation of the Applicable Conversion Value, if part or all
of the consideration to be received by the Company in connection with the
issuance of shares of Common Stock or any of the other securities described in
this Article III consists of property other than cash, such consideration
-10-
shall be deemed to have a fair market value that is reasonably determined in
good faith by the Board of Directors.
3.04 Warrants, Options, etc. for Common Stock. For the purposes of this
-----------------------------------------
Article III, the issuance after the date of this Agreement of any warrants,
options (other than the Reserved Employee Shares), subscriptions or purchase
rights with respect to shares of Common Stock and the issuance of any securities
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (or the issuance of
any warrants, options or any rights with respect to such convertible or
exchangeable securities) shall be deemed an issuance at such time of such Common
Stock if the Net Consideration Per Share (as hereinafter determined) that may be
received by the Company for such Common Stock shall be less than the Applicable
Conversion Value at the time of such issuance. Any obligation, agreement or
undertaking to issue warrants, options, subscriptions or purchase rights at any
time in the future shall be deemed to be an issuance at the time such
obligation, agreement or undertaking is made or arises. No adjustment of the
Applicable Conversion Value shall be made upon the issuance of any shares of
Common Stock that are issued pursuant to the exercise of any conversion or
exchange rights in any convertible securities if any adjustment shall previously
have been made upon the issuance of any such warrants, options or subscriptions
or purchase rights or upon the issuance of any convertible securities (or upon
the issuance of any warrants, options or any rights therefor) as provided above.
Any adjustment of the Applicable Conversion Value that relates to warrants,
options, subscriptions or purchase rights with respect to shares of Common Stock
shall be disregarded if, as and when all of such warrants, options,
subscriptions or purchase rights expire or are cancelled without being
exercised, so that the Applicable Conversion Value effective immediately upon
such cancellation or expiration shall be equal to the Applicable Conversion
Value in effect immediately prior to the issuance of the expired or cancelled
warrants, options, subscriptions or purchase rights, with such additional
adjustments as would have been made to that Applicable Conversion Value had the
expired or cancelled warrants, options subscriptions or purchase rights not been
issued. For purposes of this Article III, the "Net Consideration Per Share"
that may be received by the Company shall be determined as follows:
(A) The "Net Consideration Per Share" shall mean the amount equal to
the total amount of consideration, if any, received by the Company for the
issuance of such warrants, options, subscriptions or other purchaser rights
or convertible or exchangeable securities, plus the minimum amount of
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon exercise or conversion
thereof, divided by the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that
would
-11-
be issued if all such warrants, options, subscriptions or other purchase
rights or convertible or exchangeable securities were exercised, exchanged or
converted.
(B) The "Net Consideration Per Share" that may be received
by the Company shall be determined in each instance as of the date of
issuance of warrants, options, subscriptions or other purchase rights or
convertible or exchangeable securities without giving effect to any
possible future price adjustments or value adjustment that may be
applicable with respect to such warrants, options, subscriptions or
other purchase rights or convertible or exchangeable securities.
(C) If a part or all of the consideration received by the
company in connection with the issuance of shares of the Common Stock or
the issuance of any of the securities described in this Section 3.04
consists of property other than cash, and the Board of Directors of the
Company is unable to arrive at any valuation of such property, the
Company at its expense will promptly cause independent accountants of
recognized standing selected by the Company to value such property,
whereupon such value shall be given to such consideration and shall be
recorded on the books of the Company with respect to receipt of such
property.
3.05 Dilution in Case of Other Securities. In case any Other
-------------------------------------
Securities shall be issued or sold, or shall become subject to issue upon the
conversion or exchange of any stock (or Other Securities) of the Company (or any
other issuer of Other Securities or any other Person referred to in Section
3.08) or to subscription, purchase or other acquisition pursuant to any rights
or options granted by the Company (or such other issuer or Person), for a
consideration per share so as to dilute the conversion rights evidenced by the
Notes, the computations, adjustments and readjustments provided for in Section
3.03 with respect to the Applicable Conversion Value shall be made as nearly as
possible in the manner so provided and applied to determine the amount of Other
Securities from time to time receivable on the conversion of the Notes, so as to
protect the holders of the Notes against the effect of such dilution.
3.06 Extraordinary Events. If the Company shall after the date of
--------------------
this Agreement (i) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common Stock or (iii) combine its outstanding shares of the Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such
event, the Applicable Conversion Value shall, simultaneously with the happening
of such event, be
-12-
adjusted by multiplying the then Applicable Conversion Value by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
product so obtained shall thereafter be the Applicable Conversion value then in
effect. The Applicable Conversion Value, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in
the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described
herein in this Section 3.06.
3.07 Adjustment for Dividends in Other Stock, Property, etc.;
--------------------------------------------------------
Reclassification, etc. In case at any time or from time to time after the date
----------------------
of this Agreement the holders of Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall have
received, or (on or after the record date fixed for the determination of
shareholders eligible to receive) shall have become entitled to receive, without
payment therefor,
(a) other or additional stock or other securities or
property (other than cash) by way of dividend, or
(b) any cash, or
(c) other or additional stock or other securities or
property (including cash) by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification,
recapitalization, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement,
other than additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued as a
stock dividend or in a stock split (adjustments in respect of which are provided
for in Section 3.06) and normal cash dividends,
then and in each such case each holder of a Note, on the conversion thereof as
provided in this Article III, shall be entitled to receive the amount of stock
and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in
subdivisions (b) and (c) of this Section 3.07) that such holder would hold on
the date of such conversion if on the date thereof it had been the holder of
record of the number of shares of Common Stock that it would have received had
its Note been converted into Common Stock immediately before the date of such
event to and including the Conversion Date (as that term is defined in Section
3.11), and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and
including the date of such conversion, retained such shares and all such other
or additional stock and other securities and property (including cash in the
cases referred to in subdivisions (b) and (c) of this Section 3.07) receivable
by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called
for during such period under this Article III.
-13-
3.08 Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
----------------------------------------------------------
If at any time or from time to time the Company shall (a) effect a
reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other Person or (c)
transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other
Person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the
Company, then, in each such case, each holder of a Note, on the conversion
thereof as provided in this Article III at any time after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such
dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or
Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such
effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to
which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in
connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such holder had so
converted its Note immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment
thereafter as provided under this Article III.
(i) Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of
------------
the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties
or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver
or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including
cash, if applicable) receivable by the holders of the Notes after the effective
date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3.08 to a bank or trust
company having its principal office in Boston, Massachusetts, as trustee for
the holder or holders of the Notes, which shall establish procedures for the
exchange of such property for the Notes.
(ii) Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization,
----------------------
consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer)
referred to in this Section 3.08, each Note shall continue in full force and
effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other
securities and property receivable on the conversion of any Note after the
consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective
date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall
be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in
the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of
the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of the Note as provided in Section 3.09.
3.09 No Dilution or Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of
--------------------------
its charter or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action,
avoid or
-14-
seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of the Notes,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms
and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order
to protect the rights of the holders of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Notes against dilution or other impairment.
3.10 Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or
-----------------------------
readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the
conversion of the Notes, the Company at its expense will promptly provide each
holder of the Notes, at the election of such holder, a certificate of the
president and of the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth such
adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the
consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued
or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
outstanding or deemed to be outstanding and (c) the Applicable Conversion Value
in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale and as adjusted and readjusted
on account hereof.
3.11 Exercise of Conversion Privilege. To exercise its conversion
--------------------------------
privilege, a holder of a Note shall surrender the Note being converted to the
Company at the Company's principal office, and shall give written notice to the
Company at that office that such holder elects to convert such Note, or a
portion thereof. Such notice shall also state the name or names (with address or
addresses) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such conversion shall be issued. The Note surrendered for
conversion shall be accompanied by proper assignment thereof to the Company or
in blank. The date when such written notice is received by the Company, together
with the Note being converted, shall be the "Conversion Date." As promptly as
practicable, but in any event within 15 days after the Conversion Date, the
Company shall issue and shall deliver to the holder of the Note being converted,
or on its written order, such certificate or certificates as it may request for
the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such
Note in accordance with the provisions of this Article III, cash in the amount
of all accrued and unpaid interest on such Note up to and including the
Conversion Date, any property or securities issuable upon conversion as provided
in Section 3.07 and cash, as provided in Section 3.12, in respect of any
fraction of a share of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. Such
conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of
business on the Conversion Date, and at such time the rights of the holder as
-15-
holder of a Note shall cease and the Person or Persons in whose name or names
any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable
upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of
record of the shares of Common Stock represented thereby.
3.12 Cash in Lieu of Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common
---------------------------------
Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of a Note. Instead of any fractional
shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of a
Note, the Company shall pay to the holder of the Note that was converted a cash
adjustment in respect of such fractional shares in an amount equal to the same
fraction of the market price per share of the Common Stock (as determined in a
reasonable manner prescribed by the Board of Directors) at the close of business
on the Conversion Date.
3.13 Partial Conversion. In the event some but not all of the principal
------------------
amount represented by a Note surrendered by a holder is converted, the Company
shall execute and deliver to or on the order of the holder, at the expense of
the Company, a new Note representing the principal amount that was not
converted.
3.14 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve
---------------------------
and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock,
solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Notes, sufficient
shares of Common Stock to effect the conversion of all outstanding Notes, and if
at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall
not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding Notes, the
Company shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to a number of shares that shall
be sufficient for that purpose.
3.15 Notice of Record Date. In the event of
---------------------
(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any
class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof that are
entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class
or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification
or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company, any merger or
consolidation of the Company or any transfer of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company to any other corporation, or any other entity or person,
or
-16-
(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding
up of the Company, then and in each such event the Company shall mail or cause
to be mailed to each holder of a Note a notice specifying (i) the date on which
any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or
right and a description of such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) the date
on which any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to
become effective and (iii) the time, if any, that is to be fixed, as to when
the holders of record of Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) for securities or
other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification,
recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up. Such notice shall be mailed at least 30 days prior to the date
specified in such notice on which such action is to be taken.
ARTICLE IV
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any equity security of the
Company or (iv) any Debt Security, unless in each such case the Company shall
have first received an unconditional bona fide offer from a third party to
purchase such securities (the "Offered Securities") and shall have offered to
sell such Offered Securities to Thermo and PIC as follows: The Company shall
offer to sell to each of Thermo and PIC a portion of the Offered Securities so
that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and Conversion Shares then
held by or issuable to each of Thermo and PIC equals forty percent (40%) of the
total number shares of Common Stock to be outstanding after the proposed
issuance by the Company (assuming the conversion of the Notes and exercise of
all options held by employees of the Company and the issuance and exercise of
all options reserved for issuance to employees of the Company by the Board of
Directors pursuant to any option plan approved by the Directors and
shareholders of the Company), at a price and on the other terms specified by the
Company in writing delivered to Thermo and PIC (the "Offer"), and the Offer by
its terms shall remain
-17-
open and irrevocable for a period of twenty (20) days, unless waived by Thermo
and PIC.
4.02 Notice of Acceptance. Notice of Thermo's or PIC's intention to
--------------------
accept, in whole or in part, an Offer made pursuant to Section 4.01 shall be
evidenced by a writing signed by Thermo or PIC, as the case may be, and
delivered to the Company prior to the end of the twenty (20) day period of the
Offer, setting forth the portion of the Offered Securities that such office
elects to purchase. If either Thermo or PIC elects not to purchase all such
portion of Offered Securities, then any such securities not elected to be
purchased shall be then offered to whichever of Thermo or PIC elected to
purchase all of its portion of the offer, in the same manner as set forth in
Section 4.01. Such secondary offer shall be open for 10 days.
4.03 Conditions to Acceptance and Purchase.
-------------------------------------
(a) Permitted Sales of Refused Securities. If Notices of Acceptance
-------------------------------------
are not given by Thermo and PIC in respect of all the Offered Securities
pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.02, the Company shall have sixty (60) days from
the expiration of the 10-day period set forth in Section 4.02 to sell all or any
part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been
given by Thermo or PIC and all of the Offered Securities not subject to the
option of Thermo or PIC pursuant to this Article IV (the "Refused Securities")
to the Person or Persons specified in the Offer, but only for cash and otherwise
in all respects upon terms and conditions, including, without limitation, unit
price and interest rates, which are not more favorable, in the aggregate, to
such other Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set
forth in the Offer.
(b) Reduction in Amount of Offered Securities. In the event the
-----------------------------------------
Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such
sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 4.03(a) above),
then Thermo and PIC shall reduce the number of, or other units of, the Offered
Securities specified in their respective Notices of Acceptance to an amount that
shall be not less than the amount of the Offered Securities that each of Thermo
and PIC elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4.02 multiplied by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which shall be the amount of Offered Securities the Company
actually proposes to sell, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the amount
of all Offered Securities. In such event, the Company may not sell or otherwise
dispose of more than the reduced amount of the Offered Securities until such
securities have again been offered to Thermo and PIC in accordance with Section
4.01.

the Company, of the sale to such other Person or Persons of all or less than

specified in their respective Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to
Section 4.03(b), upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The
purchase by Thermo and PIC of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to
the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company, Thermo and PIC of a
purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory
in form and substance to Thermo, PIC and their counsel.
4.04 Further Sale. In each case, Offered Securities not purchased by

apply to:
(a) Common stock issued as a stock dividend to holders of Common

process shall be issued or levied against a substantial part of the property of

and in any such event, Thermo or any other holder of the Notes may, by notice to
