this Section 2(a).
b. ACCREDITED INVESTOR STATUS. The Buyer is an "accredited investor" as
that term is defined in Rule 501 (a) of Regulation D. The Buyer is a Delaware
limited partnership. The Buyer has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an
investment made pursuant to this Agreement. The Buyer is aware that it may be
required to bear the economic risk of an investment made pursuant to this
Agreement for an indefinite period of time, and is able to bear such risk for an
indefinite period.
c. RELIANCE ON EXEMPTIONS. The Buyer understands the Securities are being
offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration
requirements of the applicable United States federal and state securities laws
and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Buyer's
compliance with, the representations, warranties, acknowledgments,
understandings, agreements and covenants of the Buyer set forth herein in order
to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the
Buyer to acquire the Securities.
d. INFORMATION. The Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been furnished
with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the
Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities that have
been requested by the Buyer. The Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been
afforded the opportunity to ask all such questions of the Company as they have
in their discretion deemed advisable. The Buyer understands that its investment
in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. The Buyer has sought such
accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to an informed
investment decision with respect to the investment made pursuant to this
Agreement.
e. NO GOVERNMENT REVIEW. The Buyer understands that no United States
federal or state
3
agency or any other government or governmental agency has approved or made any
recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability
of the investment in the Securities, nor have such authorities passed upon or
endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.
f. TRANSFER OR RESALE. The Buyer understands that: (i) except as provided
in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Securities have not been and are not
being registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws, and may not be
offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless either (a) subsequently
registered thereunder or (b) the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an
opinion by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, in form, scope and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the
securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or
transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, (ii) any sale of
such securities made in reliance on Rule 144 (as hereafter defined) may be made
only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not
applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the
seller (or the person though whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an
underwriter (as that term is defined in the 0000 Xxx) may require compliance
with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the
SEC thereunder and applicable state securities laws, and (iii) neither the
Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register such securities
under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and
conditions of any exemption thereunder (in each case, other than pursuant to
this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement).
g. LEGEND. The Buyer understands that the Notes, the Warrants, and until
such time as the Conversion Shares, the Warrant Shares and the Interest Shares
(if any) (collectively, the "Registrable Securities"), have been registered
under the 1933 Act as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or
otherwise may be sold by the Buyer pursuant to Rule 144 (as amended, or any
applicable rule which operates to replace said Rule) promulgated under the 1933
Act ("Rule 144"), the stock certificates representing the Registrable Securities
will bear a restrictive legend (the "Legend") in substantially the following
form:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS
(COLLECTIVELY, THE "LAWS"). THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND
MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF
EITHER (I) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE
LAWS, OR (II) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL PROVIDED TO THE ISSUER IN FORM, SUBSTANCE
AND SCOPE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION IS
NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE LAWS DUE TO AN AVAILABLE EXCEPTION TO OR EXEMPTION FROM
THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE LAWS.
The Legend shall be removed and the Company will issue certificates without
the Legend to
4
the holder of the applicable Notes or any Registrable Securities upon which the
Legend is stamped, in accordance with Section 5(b).
h. AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEMENT. This Agreement, the Registration Rights
Agreement and the Escrow Agreement have been duly and validly authorized,
executed and delivered by the Buyer and are each and collectively valid and
binding agreements of the Buyer enforceable in accordance with their terms,
subject as to enforceability to general principles of equity and to bankruptcy,

Agreement and the Escrow Agreement constitute the valid and binding obligations
of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their
respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws
relating to, or affecting, generally, the enforcement of creditors' rights and
remedies or by other equitable principles of general application. The Company
(and its legal counsel) has examined this Agreement and is satisfied in its sole
discretion that this Agreement and the accompanying Exhibits, Schedules and the
Addenda, if any, are in accordance with Regulation D and the 1933 Act and are
effective to accomplish the purposes set forth herein and therein.

other or prior agreements or nexus between the Buyer and the Company, whether or
not disclosed, and that any statement made by the Buyer, or any of its
representatives or agents, in connection with this
6
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is not advice or a
recommendation, is merely incidental to the Buyer's purchase of the Securities
and has not been relied upon in any way by the Company, its officers or
directors. The Company further represents to the Buyer that the Company's
decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby

f. NO INTEGRATED OFFERING. Neither the Company, nor any of its
affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or
indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to
buy any security under circumstances which would prevent the parties hereto from
consummating the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to an exemption from
registration under the 1933 Act and specifically in accordance with the
provisions of Regulation D. The transactions contemplated hereby are exempt from
the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, assuming the accuracy of the
representations and warranties contained herein of the Buyer.
g. NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an
event which 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 of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or
any of its subsidiaries is a party, or result in a violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities
laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or by
which any property or asset of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound
or affected (except for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments,
accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect). Except as set forth in Schedule 3(g)
(attached if applicable), neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in
violation of its Articles of Incorporation or other organizational documents,
and neither the Company nor any of its/subsidiaries is in default (and no event
has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would put the Company
or any of its subsidiaries in default) under, nor has there occurred any event
giving others (with notice or lapse of time or both) any rights of termination,
amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or
instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party, except
for possible defaults or rights as would not, in the aggregate or individually,
have a Material Adverse Effect. The business of the Company and its subsidiaries
is not being conducted, and shall not be conducted so long as the Buyer owns any
of the Securities, in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any
governmental entity, except for possible violations which neither singly or in
the aggregate would have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as specifically
contemplated by this Agreement and as required under the 1933 Act and any
applicable state securities laws (any of which exceptions are set forth in
Schedule 3(g)), the Company is not required to obtain any consent, authorization
or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental
agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations
under this Agreement, the Notes, the Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement
or the Escrow Agreement
7
in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, or to perform its obligations
with respect to the Notes exactly as described in the Notes (once issued), and
with respect to the Warrants exactly as described in the Warrants (once issued).
h. SEC DOCUMENTS; FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Except as disclosed on
Schedule 3(h) hereof, since at least June 28, 1999, the Company has timely filed
all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be
filed by it with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") (all of the
foregoing filed prior to the date hereof and all exhibits included therein and
financial statements and schedules thereto and documents (other than exhibits)
incorporated by reference therein, being hereinafter referred to as the "SEC
Documents"). The Company has delivered to the Buyer as requested by the Buyer
true and complete copies of the SEC Documents, except for such exhibits,
schedules and incorporated documents. As of their respective dates, the SEC
Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934
Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable
to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed
with the SEC, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of
the Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material
respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and
regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be
otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii)
in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude
footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all
material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof
and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended
(subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments). No other information provided by or on behalf of the Company to
the Buyer (including the information referred to in Section 2(d) of this
Agreement) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state
any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstance under which they are or were made, not misleading.
Except as set forth in the financial statements of the Company included in the
SEC Documents, the Company has no liabilities, contingent or otherwise, other
than (i) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business subsequent to
the date of such financial statements and (ii) obligations under contracts and
commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business and not required under
generally accepted accounting principles to be reflected in such financial
statements, in each case of clause (i) and (ii) next above which, individually
or in the aggregate, are not material to the financial condition, business,
operations, properties, operating results or prospects of the Company. The SEC
Documents contain a complete and accurate list of all written and oral
contracts, agreements, leases or other instruments to which the Company or any
subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any subsidiary is subject which
are required by the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC to be so listed
(each a "Contract"). None of the
8
Company, its subsidiaries or, to the best of the Company's knowledge, any of the
other parties thereto, is in breach or violation of any Contract, which breach
or violation would, or with the lapse of time, the giving of notice, or both,
have a Material Adverse Effect.
i. ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,
since at least September 30, 1998, there has been no material adverse change and
no material adverse development in the business, properties, operation,
financial condition, results of operations or prospects of the Company. The
Company has not taken any steps, and does not currently have any reasonable
expectation of taking any steps, to seek protection pursuant to any bankruptcy
law nor does the Company have any knowledge that its creditors intend to
initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings. The Company shall, at least until
Buyer no longer holds any of the Securities, maintain its corporate existence in
good standing and shall pay all taxes when due except for taxes it reasonably
disputes.
j. ABSENCE OF LITIGATION. Except as set forth in Schedule 3(j) (attached
if applicable), there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation
before or by any court, public board or body pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened against or affecting the Company, wherein an unfavorable
decision, ruling or finding would have a Material Adverse Effect or which would
adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority or ability
of the Company to perform its obligations under, this Agreement or any of the
documents contemplated herein.
k. FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES. Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries, nor any officer, director or other person acting on behalf of the
Company or any subsidiary has, in the course of his actions for or on behalf of
the Company, used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift,
entertainment or other unlawful expense relating to political activity, made any
direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government
official or employee from corporate funds; violated or is in violation of any
provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or made
any bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment
to any foreign or domestic government official or employee.
l. BROKERS; NO GENERAL SOLICITATION. The Company has taken no action that
would give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder's
fees or similar payments relating to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, other than to Bridgwater Capital Corporation and to
Dutchess Capital Partners, Inc. The Company and the Buyer both acknowledge that
no other broker or finder was involved with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby, other than Bridgewater Capital Corporation and Dutchess
Capital Partners, Inc. Neither the Company nor any distributor participating on
the Company's behalf in the transactions contemplated hereby nor any person
acting for the Company, or any such distributor, has conducted any "general
solicitation," as described in Rule 502(c) under Regulation D, with respect to
the Securities being offered hereby.
m. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF DILUTION. The number of Conversion Shares issuable
upon
9
conversion of the Notes may increase substantially in certain circumstances,
including the circumstance wherein the trading price of the Common Stock
declines. The Company's executive officers and directors have studied and fully
understand the nature of the securities being sold hereunder and recognize they
have a potential dilutive effect. The board of directors of the Company has
concluded in its good faith business judgment that such issuance is in the best
interests of the Company. The Company acknowledges that its obligation to issue
Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes is binding upon it and
enforceable regardless of the dilution that such issuance may have on the
ownership interests of other stockholders.
n. ELIGIBILITY TO FILE REGISTRATION STATEMENT. The Company is currently
eligible to file a registration statement with the SEC either on Form SB-1,
Form SB-2 or Form S-3 under the 0000 Xxx.
o. (Intentionally Omitted.)
p. NON-DISCLOSURE OF NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION. (a) The Company shall in no
event disclose non-public information to the Buyer, advisors to or
representatives of the Buyer unless prior to such disclosure of information the
Company marks such information as "non-public information confidential" and
provides the Buyer, such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to
accept or refuse to accept such non-public information for review. The Company
may, as a condition to disclosing any non-public information hereunder, require
the Buyer, its advisors and representatives to enter into a confidentiality
agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Buyer.
(b) Nothing herein shall require the Company to disclose non-public
information to the Buyer, its advisors or representatives, and the Company
represents that it does not disseminate non-public information to investors who
purchase stock in the Company in a public offering, to money managers or to
securities analysts; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, the Company will, as hereinabove provided, immediately notify the
advisors and representatives of the Buyer and, if any, underwriters, of any
event or the existence of any circumstance (without any obligation to disclose
the specific event or circumstance) of which it becomes aware, constituting
non-public information (whether or not requested of the Company specifically or
generally during the course of due diligence by such persons or entities),
which, if not disclosed in the prospectus included in the registration statement
to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, would cause such
prospectus to include a material misstatement or to omit a material fact
required to be stated therein in order to make the statements therein, in light
of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. Nothing herein
shall be construed to mean that such persons or entities other than the Buyer
(without the written consent of the Buyer prior to disclosure of such
information) may not obtain non-public information in the course of conducting
due diligence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and nothing herein
shall prevent any such persons or entities from notifying the Company of their
opinion that, based upon such due
10
diligence by such persons or entities, that the registration statement contains
an untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact required to be
stated in such registration statement or necessary to make the statements
contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not
misleading.
4. COVENANTS.
a. BEST EFFORTS. Each party shall use its best efforts timely to satisfy
each of the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Sections 6 and 7 of
this Agreement.
b. SECURITIES LAWS. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D (or
equivalent form required by applicable state law) with respect to the Securities
if and as required under Regulation D and applicable state securities laws and
to provide a copy thereof to the Buyer promptly after such filing. The Company
shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as is necessary to sell
the Securities being sold to the Buyer on each such date under applicable
securities laws of the United States and the relevant state(s), and shall if
specifically so requested provide evidence of any such action so taken to the
Buyer on or prior to the Closing Date.
c. REPORTING STATUS. So long as the Buyer beneficially owns any of
the Securities, the Company shall file all reports required to be filed with the
SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as
an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or
the rules and regulations hereunder would permit such termination.
d. USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of
the Securities for the payment of production expenses, securities issuance and
legal expenses and general operational expenses.
e. FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Until such time as the Buyer no longer
beneficially owns Notes and Warrants, or the Common Stock into which the Notes
are convertible and/or the Warrants are exercisable, the Company agrees to send
the following reports to the Buyer: (i) after filing with the SEC, a copy of
each of its Annual Reports, its quarterly Reports, and any reports filed on Form
8-K; and (ii) as soon as practicable after release thereof, copies of all press
releases issued by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
f. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company shall at all times have authorized,
and reserved for the purpose of issuance, a sufficient number of shares of
Common Stock to provide for the issuance of all of the Conversion Shares, the
Warrant Shares and the Interest Shares (if any). Prior to complete conversion of
the Notes and exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall not reduce the number
of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance hereunder without the written
consent of the Buyer except for a reduction proportionate to a reverse stock
split effected for a business purpose other than affecting the requirements of
this Section, which reverse stock split affects all shares of
11
Common Stock equally.
g. LISTING. Upon the Closing, the Company shall promptly secure the
listing of the Common Stock underlying the Notes and the Warrants upon each
national securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon which
shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance)
and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so
listed, such listing of shares of Registrable Securities from time to time
issued under the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.
The Company shall at all times comply in all respects with the Company's
reporting, filing and other obligations under the by-laws or rules of the
National Association of Securities Dealers and the OTC BULLETIN BOARD MARKET (or
such other national securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock may
then be listed, as applicable).
h. PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENT. The Buyer understands that the
1933 Act requires delivery of a prospectus relating to the Common Stock in
connection with any sale thereof pursuant to a registration statement under the
1933 Act covering any resale by the Buyer of the Common Stock being sold, and
the Buyer shall comply with any applicable prospectus delivery requirements of
the 1933 Act in connection with any such sale. The Company shall have the
unequivocal right to rely upon the Buyer's representation contained in this
Section 4(h), and thus, with respect to any resales by the Buyer pursuant to a
registration statement of Common Stock issued to the Buyer upon conversion of
the Notes (or in payment of interest on the Notes) or upon exercise of the
Warrants, such Common Stock shall not contain a restrictive legend of any kind.
i. INTENTIONAL ACTS OR OMISSIONS. Neither party shall intentionally
perform any act that if performed, or omit to perform any act which if omitted
to be performed, would prevent or excuse the performance of this Agreement or
any of the transactions contemplated hereby.
j. NO SHORTING. As a material inducement for the Company to enter into
this Agreement, the Buyer represents that it has not as of the date hereof, and
covenants on behalf of itself and its affiliates that neither Buyer nor any
affiliate of Buyer will at any time in which the Buyer or any affiliate of the
Buyer beneficially owns any of the Securities, engage in any short sales of, or
hedging or arbitrage transactions with respect to, the Common Stock, or sell
"put" options or similar instruments with respect to the Common Stock. The
Company acknowledges that a sale of Conversion Shares (or Warrant Shares) on the
date a conversion of the Notes (or exercise notice for the Warrants) is made,
even if such sale is made prior to delivery of the notice of conversion with
respect to such Conversion Shares (or exercise notice with respect to such
Warrant Shares), is not a "short sale" for purposes of this Section 4(j).
k. EXPENSES. The Company agrees to pay to or at the direction of the
Buyer the sum of $3,500.00 at the Closing as reimbursement for the attorney's
fees and expenses of the Buyer incurred by it in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

1. [Intentionally Omitted.]
m. RESTRICTION ON BELOW MARKET ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES. Until the date
which is the earlier of nine (9) months from the Closing Date or the date the
Notes have been paid or converted in full, the Company shall not issue or agree
to issue {other than (i) to the Buyer pursuant to the transactions contemplated
herein, (ii) pursuant to any employee stock option plan or employee stock
purchase plan of the Company established during the term of this restriction for
a legitimate business purpose and not to avoid the restrictions imposed in this
Section 4(m), (iii) pursuant to any existing security, option, warrant, scrip,
call or commitment or right in each case as disclosed on Schedule 3(c) hereof,
or (iv) with the consent of the Buyer, not to be unreasonably withheld} any
equity securities of the Company (or any security convertible into or
exercisable or exchangeable, directly or indirectly, for equity securities of
the Company) or debt securities of the Company if such securities are issued at
a price (or provide for a conversion, exercise or exchange price) which may be
less than the current market price for the Common Stock on the date of issuance
(in the case of Common Stock) or the date of conversion, exercise or exchange
(in the case of securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable,
directly or indirectly, for Common Stock). Except as provided with respect to
the transactions contemplated herein and in subsections (i), (ii), (iii), or
(iv) above of this Section 4(m), until such time as the Notes have been paid or
converted in full, the Company shall not grant any additional so-called
"registration rights."
5. LEGEND AND TRANSFER INSTRUCTIONS.
a. TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS. The Company shall instruct its transfer
agent to issue certificates, registered in the name of the Buyer or its
permitted nominee, for the Conversion Shares, the Warrant Shares and the
Interest Shares (if any) in accordance with the terms of the applicable Notes
and Warrants and in such amounts as specified from time to time by the Buyer to
the Company, upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants (as
applicable). All such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified
in Section 2(g) of this Agreement only to the extent required by applicable law
and as specified in this Agreement and the Exhibits and Addenda hereto. The
Company warrants that no instruction other than such instructions referred to in
this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(f)
hereof in the case of the Conversion Shares, the Warrant Shares and the Interest
Shares (if any) prior to the registration of same under the 1933 Act, will be
given by the Company to its transfer agent and that the Conversion Shares, the
Warrant Shares and the Interest Shares (if any) shall otherwise be freely
transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent
permitted by applicable law and provided by this Agreement, the Warrants and the
Registration Rights Agreement. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way
the Buyer's obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities
laws upon resale of the Conversion Shares, the Warrant Shares and/or the
Interest Shares (if any). If the Buyer (x) provides the Company with an opinion
of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Company that registration by the Buyer of
the Notes, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares, the Conversion Shares and/or the
Interest Shares (if any) is not required under the 1933 Act, or (y) transfers
Securities to an affiliate which is an accredited
13
investor (in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) or in compliance
with Rule 144, then in either instance the Company shall permit the said
transfer, and if applicable promptly (and in all events within two (2) trading
days) instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name
and in such denominations as specified by the Buyer.
b. REMOVAL OF LEGENDS. The Legend shall be removed and the Company shall
issue a certificate without such Legend to the holder of any Security upon which
it is stamped, and a certificate for a security shall be originally issued
without the Legend, if, unless otherwise required by state securities laws, (x)
the sale of such Security is registered under the 1933 Act, or (y) such holder
provides the Company with an opinion by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, that is in form, substance and scope reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Security may be
made without registration under the 1933 Act or (z) such holder provides the
Company with assurances reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel,
that such Security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144. The Buyer agrees that its
sale of all Securities, including those represented by a certificate(s) from
which the Legend has been removed, or which were originally issued without the
Legend, shall be made only pursuant to an effective registration statement (and
to deliver a prospectus in connection with such sale) or in compliance with an
exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. In the event the
Legend is removed from any Security or any Security is issued without the Legend
and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the sales
of such Security is suspended or the Company determines that a supplement or
amendment thereto is required by applicable securities laws, then upon
reasonable advance notice to the holder of such Security, the Company shall be
entitled to require that the Legend be placed upon any such Security which
cannot then be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144
or with respect to which the opinion referred to in clause (y) next above has
not been rendered, which Legend shall be removed when such Security may be sold
pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144 (or such holder
provides the opinion with respect thereto described in clause (y) next above.
c. CONVERSION OF NOTES. The Buyer shall have the right to convert the
Notes sold hereunder by delivering via facsimile an executed and completed
Notice of Conversion (as defined in the Notes) to the Company and delivering
within two (2) business days thereafter the original Notice of Conversion and
the original Note being converted by express courier to the Company. Each date
on which a Notice of Conversion is faxed to the Company in accordance with the
provisions hereof shall be deemed a "Conversion Date." The Company will transmit
the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of any Notes (along with a replacement Note representing the amount
of principal of said Note not so converted, if applicable) to the Buyer via
express courier, within three (3) business days after the relevant Conversion
Date (with respect to each conversion, the "Deadline"). Time is of the essence
with respect to the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence.
14
d. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF FOR BREACH. The Company acknowledges that a breach
of its obligations under Sections 5(a), 5(b) and 5(c) above will cause
irreparable harm to the Buyer by vitiating the intent and purpose of the
transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly the Company agrees that the remedy
at law for a breach of its obligations under such Sections would be inadequate
and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the
provisions of such Sections, the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all
other remedies at law or in equity, to an injunction restraining any breach and
requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing
economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
e. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR NON-DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES. In addition to
the provisions of Section 5(d) above, the Company understands and agrees that a
delay in the issuance of the Certificates beyond the Deadline will result in
substantial economic loss and other damages to the Buyer. As partial
compensation to the Buyer for such loss, the Company agrees to pay liquidated
damages (and which the Company acknowledges is not a penalty) to the Buyer for
issuance and delivery of the Certificates after the Deadline, in accordance with
the following schedule (where "No. Business Days Late" is defined as the number
of business days beyond five (5) business days from the date of delivery by the
Buyer to the Company of a facsimile Notice of Conversion (or, if later, from the
date on which all other necessary documentation duly executed and in proper form
required for conversion of Notes as described in this Agreement, including the
original Notice of Conversion, all in accordance with this Agreement ONLY IF
such necessary documentation has not been delivered to the Company within the
two (2) business day period after the facsimile delivery to the Company of the
Notice of Conversion required in this Agreement)):

The Company shall pay the Buyer any liquidated damages incurred as called
for under this
15
Section 5(e) by certified or cashier's check upon the earlier of (i) issuance of
the Certificates to the Buyer or (ii) each monthly anniversary of the receipt by
the Company of the Buyer's Notice of Conversion. Nothing herein shall limit the
Buyer's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to issue and
deliver the Certificates to the Buyer in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement or for breach by the Company of this Agreement.

to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
Neither the Company nor the Buyer shall assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and in any event any assignee of
the Buyer shall be an accredited investor (as defined in Regulation D), in the
written opinion of counsel who is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and in
form, substance and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable, any of the entities constituting
the Buyer (if greater than one (1) entity) may assign its rights hereunder to
any of its "affiliates," as that term is defined under the 1934 Act, without the
consent of the Company; provided, however, that any such assignment shall not
release such assigning entity from its obligations hereunder unless such
obligations are assumed by such affiliate and the Company has prior to such
assignment and assumption consented in writing to the same; and no such
assignment shall be made unless it is made in accordance with any applicable
securities laws of any applicable
19
jurisdiction. Any request for an assignment made hereunder by the Buyer shall be
accompanied by a legal opinion in form, substance and scope reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, that such assignment is proper under applicable
law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer may pledge the
Securities as collateral for a bona fide loan pursuant to a security agreement
with a third party lender, and such pledge shall not be considered an assignment
in violation of this Agreement so long as it is made in compliance with all
applicable law.

benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and
assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced

sold hereby.

the Buyer, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to
such transactions as is required by applicable law and regulations.
k. FURTHER ASSURANCE. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be
done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and
deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as
the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.
l. TERMINATION. In the event that the Closing shall not have occurred on
or before ten (10) business days from the date hereof, this Agreement shall
terminate at the close of business on such date. Neither party may unilaterally
terminate this Agreement after the Closing for any reason other than a material
breach of this Agreement by the non- breaching party. Such termination shall not
be the sole remedy for a breach of this Agreement by the non-breaching party,
and each party shall retain all of its rights hereunder at law or in equity.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a party whose breach of a
covenant or representation and warranty or failure to satisfy a condition
prevented the Closing shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement.
m. REMEDIES. No provision of this Agreement providing for any specific
remedy to a party shall be construed to limit such party to the specific remedy
described, and any other remedy that would otherwise be available to such party
at law or in equity shall be so available. Nothing in
20
this Agreement shall limit any rights a party may have with any applicable
federal or state securities laws with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby.
