WHEREAS, Sherleigh has agreed to waive
the provision of Section 9 of the Sherleigh Warrants soley with respect to the
increase of the number of Sherleigh Warrant Shares, based on the formula as set
forth in such Section that would otherwise apply as a result of the issuance of

and the conversion price of the Preferred Stock shall be reduced from $1.00 to
$.12 per share.
2. Limited
Waiver. Sherleigh
hereby waives any increase in the number of Sherleigh Warrant Shares that would
