REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
3.1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. Except as set forth
under the corresponding section of the disclosure schedules attached hereto (the
"DISCLOSURE SCHEDULES"), the Company hereby makes the following representations
and warranties to each Purchaser:

subsidiaries. The Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the
capital stock or other equity interests of each Subsidiary free and
clear of any lien, charge, security interest, encumbrance, right of
first refusal or other restriction (collectively, "LIENS"), and all the

validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization (as applicable), with
the requisite power and authority to own and use its properties and
assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted. Neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any of the provisions of
its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or
other organizational or charter documents. Each of the Company and the
Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing
as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which
the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such
qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or
in good standing, as the case may be, could not, individually or in the
aggregate: (i) adversely affect the legality, validity or
enforceability of any Transaction Document, (ii) have or result in or
be reasonably likely to have or result in a material adverse effect on
the results of operations, assets, prospects, business or condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as
a whole, or (iii) adversely impair the Company's ability to perform
fully on a timely basis its obligations under any of the Transaction
Documents (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a "MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT").
(c) AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEMENT. The Company has the requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by each of the Transaction Documents and
otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The
execution and delivery of each of the Transaction Documents by the
Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on
the part of the Company and no further consent or action is required by
the Company. Each of the Transaction Documents has been (or upon
delivery will be) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in
accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and binding
obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance
with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws
affecting creditors' rights and remedies generally and general
principles of equity. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in
violation of any of the provisions of its respective certificate or
articles of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational or charter
documents.
(d) NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of
the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the
Company of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not:
(i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Company's or any
Subsidiary's certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other
organizational or charter documents, or (ii) subject to obtaining the
Required Approvals (as defined below), conflict with, or constitute a
-7-
default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would
become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination,
amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse
of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other
instrument (evidencing a Company or Subsidiary debt or otherwise) or
other understanding to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party
or by which any property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is
bound or affected, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of
any court or governmental authority to which the Company or a
Subsidiary is subject (including federal and state securities laws and
regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Company or a
Subsidiary is bound or affected; except in the case of each of clauses
(ii) and (iii), such as could not, individually or in the aggregate,
have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(e) FILINGS, CONSENTS AND APPROVALS. Neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary is required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization
or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration
with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental
authority or other Person in connection with the execution, delivery
and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents, other than
(i) the filings required under SECTION 4.7, (ii) the filing with the
Commission of the Underlying Shares Registration Statement, (iii) the
application(s) to each applicable Principal Market for the listing of
the Underlying Shares and shares issauble at the Closing for trading
thereon in the time and manner required thereby, and (iv) applicable
Blue Sky filings (collectively, the "REQUIRED APPROVALS").
(f) ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES. The Securities are duly
authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the
applicable Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly issued,
fully paid and non assessable, free and clear of all Liens. The Company
has reserved from its duly authorized capital stock a number of shares
of Common Stock for issuance of the Underlying Shares and shares of
Common Stock issuable at the Closing at least equal to the Required
Minimum on the date hereof. The Company acknowledges and agrees that
the Purchasers are acquiring the Debentures for an original issue
discount to the principal amount of the Debentures.
(g) CAPITALIZATION. The number of shares and type of all
authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company is set
forth in the Disclosure Schedules attached hereto. No securities of the
Company are entitled to preemptive or similar rights, and no Person has
any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation,
or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents. Except as a result of the purchase and sale
of the Securities, there are no outstanding options, warrants, script
rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character
whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations
convertible into or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to
subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common Stock, or contracts,
commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any
Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common
Stock, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares
of Common Stock. The issuance and sale of the Securities will not
obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other
securities to any Person (other than the Purchasers) and will not
result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the
exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities.
-8-

all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for

"ACTION") which: (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality,
validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the
Securities or (ii) could, if there were an unfavorable decision,
individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any
-9-
Subsidiary, nor any director or officer thereof, is or has been the
subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability
under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of
fiduciary duty. The Company does not have pending before the Commission
any request for confidential treatment of information. There has not
been, and to the knowledge of the Company, there is not pending or
contemplated, any investigation by the Commission involving the Company

the Company or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in

possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the
appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities
necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the
SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess such permits could

proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material
Permit.

property by the Company and the Subsidiaries. Any real property and
facilities held under lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are
held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases of which
the Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance.
-10-
(o) PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS. The Company and the Subsidiaries
have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent applications,
trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, trade names,
copyrights, licenses and other similar rights that are necessary or
material for use in connection with their respective businesses as
described in the SEC Reports and which the failure to so have could
have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the "INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS"). Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received
a written notice that the Intellectual Property Rights used by the
Company or any Subsidiary violates or infringes upon the rights of any
Person. To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property
Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another
Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights.
(p) INSURANCE. The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by
insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and
risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the
businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged. A
list of the Company's insurance contracts and policies are set forth on
the Disclosure Schedules. The Company has delivered to the Purchasers,
prior to the Closing, such contracts and policies. To the best of
Company's knowledge, such insurance contracts and policies are accurate
and complete. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to
believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance
coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar
coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business without a significant increase in cost.
(q) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND EMPLOYEES. None of the
officers or directors of the Company and, to the knowledge of the
Company, none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to
any transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary (other than for
services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract,
agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services
to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from,
or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or
such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in which
any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest
or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.
(r) INTERNAL ACCOUNTING CONTROLS. The Company and the
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls
sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are
executed in accordance with management's general or specific
authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability,
(iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with
management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded
accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to
any differences. The Company has established disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the
Company and designed such disclosures controls and procedures to ensure
that material information relating to the Company, including its
subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within
-11-
those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company's
Form 10-K or 10-Q, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's
certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's
controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing
date of the Form 10-K for the year quarter ended March 31, 2002 (such
date, the "EVALUATION DATE"). The Company presented in the Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 the conclusions of the certifying
officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since
the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the
Company's internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of
Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or, the Company's knowledge, in
other factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal
controls.
(s) SOLVENCY/INDEBTEDNESS. Based on the financial condition of
the Company as of the Closing Date: (i) the Company's fair saleable
value of its assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid
on or in respect of the Company's existing debts and other liabilities
(including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the
Company's assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry
on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as
proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into
account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted
by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital
availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company,
together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to
liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated
uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in
respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. The
Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such
debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of
cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no
knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that
it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or
reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the
Closing Date. The SEC Reports and Schedule 3.1(s) attached hereto set
forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured
Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company
or any Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement,
"INDEBTEDNESS" shall mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money or
amounts owed in excess of $25,000 (other than trade accounts payable
incurred in the ordinary course of business), (b) all guaranties,
endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of
Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be

guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or
collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business;
and (c) the present value of any lease payments in excess of $25,000
due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to

are or will be payable by the Company to any broker, financial advisor
or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or
other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
-12-
Agreement, and the Company has not taken any action that would cause
any Purchaser to be liable for any such fees or commissions. The
Company agrees that the Purchasers shall have no obligation with
respect to any fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf
of any Person for fees of the type contemplated by this Section with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any
Principal Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or

to grant to any Person any rights (including "piggy-back" registration
rights) to have any securities of the Company registered with the
Commission or any other governmental authority that have not been
satisfied.
(x) APPLICATION OF TAKEOVER PROTECTIONS. The Company and its
Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to
render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business
combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights
agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the laws
of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the
Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling
their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction
Documents, including without limitation as a result of the Company's
issuance of the Securities and the Purchasers' ownership of the
Securities.
(y) SENIORITY. As of the date of this Agreement, no
indebtedness of the Company is senior to the Debentures in right of
payment, whether upon liquidation or dissolution, or otherwise, other

constitute material, nonpublic information. The Company understands and

returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which
it is subject (unless and only to the extent that the Company and each
of its Subsidiaries has set aside on its books provisions reasonably
adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported taxes) and has
paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are
material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns,
reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith
and has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the
payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which
such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes
in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any
jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company know of no basis for any

acting solely in the capacity of arm's length purchasers with respect
to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company
further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor
or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect

decision to enter into this Agreement has been based solely on the
independent evaluation of the Company and its representatives.

D) or general advertising with respect to the sale of the Debentures or
the Warrants, or (ii) made any offers or sales of any security or
solicited any offers to buy any security under any circumstances that

the Warrants under the Securities Act or made any "directed selling
efforts" as defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S.
(dd) NO DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS AND LAWYERS. There are
no disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably
anticipated by the Company to arise, between the accountants and
lawyers formerly or presently employed by the Company and the Company

lawyers.
(ee) SECURITY INTEREST. The Company hereby grants to each
Purchaser, and acknowledges and agrees that the Debentures are secured
by, a first priority security interest in all of the assets of the
Company and the Subsidiaries pursuant to those certain Security
Agreements, dated April 16, 2003, as amended, between the Company and
each of the Subsidiaries and the Purchasers and that the Debentures

Subsidiary Guarantee dated the date hereof. All the necessary filings
have been made to perfect each Purchaser's security interest in such
assets. If such agreements can be construed not to include the
Debentures, they are hereby amended to include the Debentures.
3.2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS. Each Purchaser
hereby, for itself and for no other Purchaser, represents and warrants to the
Company as follows:
(a) ORGANIZATION; AUTHORITY. Such Purchaser is an entity duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite corporate or
partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to
carry out its obligations thereunder. The purchase by such Purchaser of
the Securities hereunder has been duly authorized by all necessary
action on the part of such Purchaser. Each of this Agreement, and the
Registration Rights Agreement has been duly executed by such Purchaser,
and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with the terms
hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of
such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
(b) INVESTMENT INTENT. Such Purchaser is acquiring the
Securities as principal for its own account for investment purposes
only and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such
Securities or any part thereof, without prejudice, however, to such
Purchaser's right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at all
times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such
Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act or under an exemption from such registration and in
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed a representation or warranty by such
Purchaser to hold Securities for any period of time. Such Purchaser is
acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its
business. Such Purchaser does not have any agreement or understanding,
directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of the
Securities.
(c) PURCHASER STATUS. At the time such Purchaser was offered
the Securities, it was, and at the date hereof it is, and on each date
-15-
on which it exercises any Warrants or converts any Debentures, it will
be an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the
Securities Act. Such Purchaser has not been formed solely for the
purpose of acquiring the Securities. Such Purchaser is not a registered
broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.
(d) EXPERIENCE OF SUCH PURCHASER. Such Purchaser, either alone
or together with its representatives, has such knowledge,
sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as
to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective
investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks
of such investment. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of
an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to
afford a complete loss of such investment.
(e) GENERAL SOLICITATION. Such Purchaser is not purchasing the
Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other
communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper,
magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or
presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general
advertisement.
(f) RELIANCE. Such Purchaser understands and acknowledges
that: (i) the Securities are being offered and sold to it without
registration under the Securities Act in a private placement that is
exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and (ii)
the availability of such exemption depends in part on, and the Company
will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of, the foregoing
representations and such Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.
ARTICLE IV
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.
(a) The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with
state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of
Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement,
to the Company, to an Affiliate of a Purchaser, to an entity managed by
a Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section
4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to
the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form
and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration
of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition
of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by
the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Purchaser
under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.
(b) Each Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is
required by this SECTION 4.1(B), of the following legend on any
certificate evidencing Securities:
-16-
[NEITHER] THESE SECURITIES [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE
SECURITIES ARE [EXERCISABLE] [CONVERTIBLE]] HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES
COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"),
AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT
TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF
COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL
BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES AND THE
SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN
CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY
SUCH SECURITIES.
The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from
time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement or grant a
security interest in some or all of the Securities and, if required
under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer
pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such
a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company
and no legal opinion of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be
required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required
of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser's expense, the Company
will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or
secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a
pledge or transfer of the Securities, including the preparation and
filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of
the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act
to appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders thereunder.
(c) Certificates evidencing Underlying Shares shall not
contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)):
(i) while a registration statement (including the Underlying Shares
Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is
effective under the Securities Act, or (ii) following any sale of such
Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Underlying
Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such legend
is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act
(including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the
staff of the Commission). If all or any portion of a Debenture or
Warrant is converted or exercised (as applicable) at a time when there
is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the
Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule
144(k) or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable
requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations
-17-
thereof) then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all
legends. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at
such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section
4.1(c), it will, no later than three Trading Days following the
delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company's transfer agent
of a certificate representing Underlying Shares issued with a
restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser
a certificate representing such shares that is free from all
restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on
its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company
that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section.
(d) In addition to such Purchaser's other available remedies,
the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as liquidated damages
and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Underlying Shares (based on
the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock on the date such Securities
are submitted to the Company's transfer agent) subject to this Section
4.1(c), $20 per Trading Day (increasing to $40 per Trading Day 3
Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading
Day after such third Trading Day until such certificate is delivered.
4.2 ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF DILUTION. The Company acknowledges that the
issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions.
The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction
Documents, including without limitation its obligation to issue the Underlying
Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and
not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction,
regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim that the Company may
have against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such
issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.
4.3 FURNISHING OF INFORMATION. As long as any Purchaser owns
Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in
respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports
required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the
Exchange Act. Upon the request of any Purchaser, the Company shall deliver to
such Purchaser a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to
whether it has complied with the preceding sentence. As long as any Purchaser
owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such
laws, it will prepare and furnish to each Purchaser and make publicly available
in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for each
Purchaser to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company further covenants
that it will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably
request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to
sell such Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the
limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.
4.4 INTEGRATION. The Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts
to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or
solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as
defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the
offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration
under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to each Purchaser, or
that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes
of the rules and regulations of any Principal Market.
-18-
4.5 RESERVATION AND LISTING OF SECURITIES.
(a) At all times the Company shall maintain a reserve from its
duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the
Transaction Documents in an amount equal to the Required Minimum. In
order to ensure that the Company has authorized a sufficient amount of
shares to meet the Required Minimum at all times, the Company must
deliver to the Purchaser at the end of every month a list detailing (1)
the current amount of shares authorized by the Company and reserved for
the Purchaser; and (2) amount of shares issuable upon conversion of the
Debentures and upon exercise of the Warrants. If the Company fails to
provide such list within five (5) business days of the end of each
month, the Company shall pay the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount in
cash.
(b) If on any date the number of authorized but unissued (and
otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than the Required
Minimum, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall use its best
efforts to amend the Company's certificate or articles of incorporation
to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock to at least the Required Minimum at such time as soon as possible
and in any event not later than the 60th day after such date; provided
that the Company will not be required at any time to authorize a number
of shares of Common Stock greater than the maximum remaining number of
shares of Common Stock that could possibly be issued after such time
pursuant to the Transaction Documents.
(c) The Company shall: (i) in the time and manner required by
each Principal Market, prepare and file with such Principal Market an
additional shares listing application covering a number of shares of
Common Stock at least equal to the greater of (A) the Required Minimum
on the Closing Date and (B) the Required Minimum on the date of such
application, (ii) take all steps necessary to cause such shares of
Common Stock to be approved for listing on each Principal Market as
soon as possible thereafter, (iii) provide to each Purchaser evidence
of such listing, and (iv) maintain the listing of such Common Stock on
each such Principal Market or another Principal Market.
(d) If, on any date, the number of shares of Common Stock
previously listed on a Principal Market is less than the Required
Minimum on such date, then the Company shall take the necessary actions
to list on such Principal Market, as soon as reasonably possible, a
number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to the Required Minimum
on such date; provided that the Company will not be required at any
time to list a number of shares of Common Stock greater than the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock that could possibly be issued
pursuant to the Transaction Documents.
(e) The Company shall not effectuate a reverse split of the
Common Stock without the prior written consent of each Purchaser.
4.6 CONVERSION AND EXERCISE PROCEDURES. The form of Election to
Purchase included in the Warrants and the form of Conversion Notice included in
the Debentures set forth the totality of the procedures required in order to
exercise the Warrants or convert the Debentures. No additional legal opinion or
other information or instructions shall be necessary to enable each Purchaser to
-19-
exercise their Warrants or convert their Debentures. The Company shall honor
exercises of the Warrants and conversions of the Debentures and shall deliver
Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set
forth in the Transaction Documents. Attached hereto as ANNEX A is a list of the
shares available to each Purchaser in light of the limitation on conversion and
exercise set forth in Section 4(a)(iii) (subject to adjustment therein) of the
Debenture prior to Shareholder Approval (as defined in the Debenture). The
Company agrees and acknowledges that prior to Shareholder Approval and pursuant
to Section 4(a)(iii) of the Debenture, that the aggregate Issuable Maximum (as
defined in the Debenture) is 30,000,000.
4.7 SECURITIES LAWS DISCLOSURE; PUBLICITY. The Company shall, within 1
Trading Day after the Closing Date, issue a press release or file a Current
Report on Form 8-K reasonably acceptable to each Purchaser disclosing all
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company and the each
Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
other than in any registration statement filed pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement and filings related thereto, the Company shall not publicly
disclose the name of any Purchaser or the terms of the Agreement, or include the
name of any Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency
or Principal Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except
to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Principal Market
regulations, in which case the Company shall provide each Purchaser with prior
notice of such disclosure.
4.8 NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION. The Company covenants and agrees that
neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser
or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes
constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser
shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of
such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall
be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company.
4.9 USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the
sale of the Securities hereunder for working capital purposes and not for the
satisfaction of any portion of the Company's debt (other than payment of trade
payables, capital lease obligations, and accrued expenses in the ordinary course
of the Company's business and prior practices), to redeem any Company equity or
equity-equivalent securities or to settle any outstanding litigation.
4.10 REIMBURSEMENT. If any Purchaser becomes involved in any capacity
in any Proceeding by or against any Person who is a stockholder of the Company,
solely as a result of such Purchaser's acquisition of the Securities under this
Agreement and without causation by any other activity, obligation, condition or
liability pertaining to such Purchaser and not to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, the Company will reimburse such Purchaser for its reasonable
legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation preparation
and travel in connection therewith) incurred in connection therewith, as such
expenses are incurred. The reimbursement obligations of the Company under this
paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise
have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to any Affiliates of the
Purchasers who are actually named in such action, proceeding or investigation,
-20-
and partners, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons (if any), as
the case may be, of the Purchasers and any such Affiliate, and shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal
representatives of the Company, the Purchasers and any such Affiliate and any
such Person. The Company also agrees that neither the Purchasers nor any such
Affiliates, partners, directors, agents, employees or controlling persons shall
have any liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or
in right of the Company solely as a result of acquiring the Securities under
this Agreement.
4.11 INDEMNIFICATION OF PURCHASERS. The Company will indemnify and hold
each Purchaser and their directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees
and agents (each, a "PURCHASER PARTY") harmless from any and all losses,
liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses,
including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may
suffer or incur as a result of or relating to: (a) any misrepresentation, breach
or inaccuracy, or any allegation by a third party that, if true, would
constitute a breach or inaccuracy, of any of the representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents; or (b) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made
against such Purchaser Party and arising solely out of or solely resulting from
the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any of
the other Transaction Documents and without causation by any other activity,
obligation, condition or liability pertaining to such Purchaser and not to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company will reimburse such
Purchaser for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any
investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith) incurred in
connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred.
4.12 SHAREHOLDERS RIGHTS PLAN. In the event that a shareholders rights
plan is adopted by the Company, no claim will be made or enforced by the Company
or any other Person that any Purchaser is an "Acquiring Person" under the plan
or in any way could be deemed to trigger the provisions of such plan by virtue
of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents.
4.13 PARTICIPATION IN FUTURE FINANCING. From the date hereof until the
later of (a) the date a Purchaser no longer holds any Securities and (b)
September 1, 2005, the Company shall not effect a financing of its Capital
Shares or Capital Shares Equivalents (a "SUBSEQUENT FINANCING") unless (i) the
Company delivers to each of such Purchasers, at least three (3) Trading Days
prior to the Closing of such Subsequent Financing, a written notice (the
"SUBSEQUENT FINANCING NOTICE") of its intention to effect such Subsequent
Financing, which Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail
the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended
to be raised thereunder, the Person with whom such Subsequent Financing is
proposed to be effected, and attached to which shall be a term sheet or similar
document relating thereto and (ii) such Purchaser shall not have notified the
Company by 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the third (3rd) Trading Day after
its receipt of the Subsequent Financing Notice of its willingness to provide (or
to cause its designee to provide), subject to completion of mutually acceptable
documentation, all or part of such Purchaser's pro-rata portion of such
financing to the Company on the same terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing
Notice. If one or more Purchasers shall fail to so notify the Company of their
-21-
willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the Company may effect
the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and to the
Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice; provided that the Company
must provide the Purchasers with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the
Purchasers will again have the right of first refusal set forth above in this
Section 4.13, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent
Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in
such Subsequent Financing Notice within 60 Trading Days after the date of the
initial Subsequent Financing Notice with the Person identified in the Subsequent
Financing Notice. In the event the Company receives responses to Subsequent
Financing Notices from Purchasers seeking to purchase more than the financing
sought by the Company in the Subsequent Financing such Purchasers shall have the
right to purchase their Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the Capital
Shares or Capital Shares Equivalents to be issued in such Subsequent Financing.
"PRO RATA PORTION" is the ratio of (x) the principal amount of Debentures
purchased by a Purchaser and (y) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of
Debentures issued hereunder. If any Purchaser no longer holds any Debentures,
then the Pro Rata Portions shall be re-allocated among the remaining Purchasers.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 4.13 shall not
apply to the following (a) the granting of options to employees, officers and
directors of the Company pursuant to any stock option plan duly adopted by a
majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or
a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established
for such purpose, or (b) the exercise of any security issued by the Company in
connection with the offer and sale of this Company's securities pursuant to this
Agreement, or (c) the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities,
options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date hereof, provided such
securities have not been amended since the date hereof, or (d) acquisitions or
strategic investments, the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital.
Each Purchaser hereby agrees to amend the notice and exercise period to three
(3) Trading Days with respect to any rights of participation or first refusal in
future financings by the Company such Purchaser may have had with respect to any
future issuances of Capital Shares or Capital Shares Equivalents, including but
not limited to, any rights such Purchaser may have had, if applicable, pursuant
to those certain Securities Purchase Agreements dated November 8, 2002, January
31, 2003 and April 16, 2003 by and among the Company and the purchasers
signatory thereto.

Subsidiary shall (i) incur, issue, create, guarantee, assume or otherwise become
liable on account of any indebtedness or (ii) increase any amounts owing or to
which such Person is liable under any existing obligations or (iii) issue or
sell any Capital Shares or Capital Shares Equivalents. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, this Section 4.14 shall not apply to the following (a)

pursuant to any stock option plan duly adopted by a majority of the non-employee
members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of
a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, or (b) the
exercise of any security issued by the Company in connection with the offer and
sale of this Company's securities pursuant to this Agreement, or (c) the
exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities, options or warrants
issued and outstanding on the date hereof, provided such securities have not
been amended since the date hereof, or (d) acquisitions or strategic

COMPANY. If the Company breaches any of the representations, warranties or
covenants set forth in Articles III and IV, and in addition to any other
remedies available to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement, the Company
shall pay to each Purchaser liquidated damages of three percent (3%) of the
outstanding amount of the Debentures held by such Purchaser per month, prorated
for partial months, in cash ("STANDARD LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AMOUNT"), until such
breach is cured.
4.16 SECURITY AGREEMENTS. The Company hereby agrees to use its best
efforts to take any action reasonably requested by any Purchaser to grant and
maintain each Purchaser's perfected first priority security interest in all of

ARTICLE V
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated by the Company or any
Purchaser, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing has not been
consummated by the fifth business day following the date of this Agreement;
provided that no such termination will affect the right of any party to xxx for
any breach by the other party (or parties).

HPC Capital Management as reimbursement for its legal fees and expenses incurred
in connection with the preparation and negotiation of the Transaction documents.

party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and
other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to
the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees, stamp taxes and other
taxes and duties levied in connection with the issuance of any Securities.
5.3 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. The Transaction Documents, together with the
Exhibits and Schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties
acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.
5.4 NOTICES. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries
required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be

hereafter, in the same manner, by such Person.
5.5 AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS. No provision of this Agreement may be waived
or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment,
by the Company and each of the Purchasers or, in the case of a waiver, by the
party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any
default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this
Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of
any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or
requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise
any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
5.6 CONSTRUCTION. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not
constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed
to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no
rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
5.7 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.
The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of each Purchaser. Any Purchaser may assign
its rights under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement to any
Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities.
5.8 NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced
by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Sections 4.8.
5.9 GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. All questions
concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this
Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of
conflicts of law thereof. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York,
borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in
connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction
Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit,
action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper
or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such
suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the
address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such
-24-
service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right
to serve process in any manner permitted by law. The parties hereby waive all
rights to a trial by jury. If either party shall commence an action or
proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, then the prevailing
party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for
its attorneys fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,
preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
5.10 SURVIVAL. The representations, warranties, agreements and
covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery, exercise
and/or conversion of the Securities, as applicable.
5.11 EXECUTION. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the
same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by
each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both
parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is
delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page
were an original thereof.
5.12 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid
and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so
agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.
5.13 RESCISSION AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHT. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the
Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election,
demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely
perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such
Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon
written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole
or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.
5.14 REPLACEMENT OF SECURITIES. If any certificate or instrument
evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate
or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable
indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument
under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs
associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
5.15 REMEDIES. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the
Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the
Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in
-25-
any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate.
5.16 PAYMENT SET ASIDE. To the extent that the Company makes a payment
or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser
enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the
proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered
from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored
to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common
law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration
the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been
made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
5.17 USURY. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby
agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will
resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of,
usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in
connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any
Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction
Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any
Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total
liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the
nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under
applicable law (the "MAXIMUM Rate"), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no
event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when
aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be
obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is
agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and
applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or
any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum
contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate of interest
applicable to the Transaction Documents from the effective date forward, unless
such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances
whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any
Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents,
such excess shall be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance
of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling
such excess to be at such Purchaser's election.
5.18 INDEPENDENT NATURE OF PURCHASERS' OBLIGATIONS AND RIGHTS. The
obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not
joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any
Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Document. Each
Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights,
including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of
-26-
the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other
Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose. Each Purchaser was introduced to the Company by HPC Capital Management,
which has acted solely as agent for the Company and not for any Purchaser. Each
Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review
and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative
convenience only, Purchasers and their respective counsel have chosen to
communicate with the Company through FW. FW does not represent all of the
Purchasers but only HPC Capital Management. The Company has elected to provide
all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience
of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the
Purchasers.
5.19 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. The Company's obligations to pay any
liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a
continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid
liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact
that the instrument or security pursuant to which such liquidated damages or
other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.
