REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
2(a) Representations, Warranties and Agreements of the Company. The
Company hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the
Purchaser:

duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
State of Nevada, with the requisite corporate power and authority to own and use
its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted.
The Company has no subsidiaries other than as set forth in Schedule 2.1(a)
attached hereto (collectively, the "Subsidiaries"). Each of the Subsidiaries is
a corporation, duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, with the full corporate power
and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its
business as currently conducted. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is
duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation
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, (x) adversely affect the
legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Preferred Stock, the
Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement
(collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), (y) have a material adverse effect
on the results of operations, assets, prospects, or condition of the Company and
the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (z) adversely impair the Company's
ability to perform fully on a timely basis its obligations under any Transaction
Document (any of the foregoing, a "Material Adverse Effect").
(ii) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite
corporate 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 execution and delivery of each of the Transaction
Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the
part of the Company. Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly executed by
the Company and when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof shall
constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its 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. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any of
the provisions of its respective certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other
charter documents.
(iii) Capitalization. The authorized, issued and outstanding
capital stock of the Company is set forth in Schedule 2.1(c). No shares of
Common Stock are entitled to preemptive or similar rights, nor is any holder of
the Common Stock entitled to preemptive or similar rights arising out of any
agreement or understanding with the Company by virtue of any of the Transaction
Documents. Except as disclosed in Schedule 2.1(c) and as issuable in connection
with (x) the conversion of shares of the Company's 7% Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock issued to the Purchaser (the "Series B Preferred") and (y) the
exercise of the Common Stock purchase warrants of the Company issued in
connection with the sale of the Series B Preferred (the "Series B Warrants"),

or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or, except as a result
of the purchase and sale of the Preferred Stock and Warrants hereunder,

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. To the knowledge of the
Company, except as specifically disclosed in the SEC Documents (as defined
below) or Schedule 2.1(c), no Person (as defined below) beneficially owns (as
determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) or has the right to acquire by
agreement with or by obligation binding upon the Company, beneficial ownership
of in excess of 5% of the Common Stock. There are no agreements or arrangements
under which the Company or any Subsidiary is obligated to register the sale of
any of their securities under the Securities Act (other than as contemplated in
the Registration Rights Agreement). A "Person" means an individual or
corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association,
joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an
agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind.
(iv) Issuance of Preferred Stock, Warrants and Underlying Shares.
The Preferred Stock and the Warrants are duly authorized, and, when issued in
accordance with the terms hereof, shall be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of first
refusals of any kind (collectively, "Liens"). The Company has and at all times
while the Preferred Stock and the Warrants are outstanding will maintain an
adequate reserve of duly authorized shares of Common Stock to enable it to
perform its conversion, exercise and other obligations under this Agreement, the
Warrants and the Preferred Stock and in no circumstances shall such reserved and
available shares of Common Stock be less than the sum of (i) two times the
number of shares of Common Stock as would be issuable upon conversion in full of
the Preferred Stock, assuming such conversion were effected on the Original
Issue Date or the Filing Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement),
whichever yields a lower Conversion Price, (ii) the number of shares of Common
Stock as are issuable as payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock, and (iii)
the number of shares of Common Stock as are issuable upon exercise in full of
the Warrants. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock, as payment of dividends in respect thereof and upon exercise of
the Warrants are sometimes referred to herein as the "Underlying Shares," and
the Preferred Stock, Warrants and Underlying Shares are, are collectively
referred to herein as, the "Securities." When issued in accordance with the
terms of the Preferred Stock and the Warrants, the Underlying Shares will be
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of
all Liens.
(v) 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 its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other
charter documents (each as amended through the date hereof) or (ii) subject to
obtaining the consents referred to in Section 2.1(f), 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

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 is subject (including federal and state
securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the
Company is bound or affected, except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and
(iii), as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or result in a
Material Adverse Effect. The business of the Company is not being conducted in
violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority,
except for violations which, individually or in the aggregate, do not have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(vi) Consents and Approvals. Except as specifically set forth in
Schedule 2.1(f), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is required to obtain
any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, 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 filing of a registration statement covering the resale of the Underlying
Shares by the Purchaser (the "Underlying Shares Registration Statement") with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), which shall be filed
in the time period set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) other
than, in all other cases, where the failure to obtain such consent, waiver,
authorization or order, or to give or make such notice or filing, could not have
or result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect
(together with the consents, waivers, authorizations, orders, notices and
filings referred to in Schedule 2.1(f), the "Required Approvals").
(vii) Litigation; Proceedings. Except as specifically disclosed in
the Disclosure Materials (as hereinafter defined), there is no action, suit,
notice of violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best
knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties before or by any court,
governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (Federal, state,
county, local or foreign) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the
legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the
Securities or (ii) could, individually or in the aggregate, have or result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

result in a default by the Company or
any Subsidiary under), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary received notice of

indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to
which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, (ii) is in
violation of any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii)

(ix) Private Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the
representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth in Section 2.2(b)-(f),
the issuance and sale of the Securities to the Purchaser as contemplated hereby
are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Neither the
Company nor any Person acting on its behalf has taken or will take any action
which might subject the offering, issuance or sale of the Securities to the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.
(x) Disclosure Material. The financial statements of the Company
dated December 31, 1996 and September 30, 1997 and any other financial
statements delivered by the Company to the Purchaser (the "Financial Statements"
and, together with the Schedules to this Agreement and other documents and
information furnished by or on behalf of the Company at any time prior to the
Closing, the "Disclosure Materials") comply in all material respects with

to normal year-end audit adjustments. There are no liabilities, contingent or
otherwise, of the Company involving material amounts not disclosed in said
Financial Statements. The Disclosure Materials do not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit 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. Other than the

has been no event, occurrence or development that has had or that could have or
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

trading or quotation facility. The Company has no reason to believe that it does
not now or will not in the future meet any such requirements.
(xvi) Patents and Trademarks. The Company has, or has rights to
use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications,
service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and rights which are necessary
for use in connection with its business and which the failure to so have would

securities of the Company.
2(b) Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser
hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Company.
(i) Organization; Authority. Such Purchaser is an entity
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite power and authority to enter
into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents and to carry out its obligations thereunder. The acquisition of the
Securities to be acquired hereunder by such Purchaser has been duly authorized
by all necessary action on the part of such Purchaser. Each of this Agreement,
the Registration Rights Agreement and the Escrow Agreement has been duly
executed and delivered by such Purchaser and constitutes the valid and legally
binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with
its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to
or affecting creditors' rights generally and to general principles of equity.
(ii) Investment Intent. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities
to be acquired hereunder by such Purchaser 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 or interest therein, without prejudice, however,
to such Purchaser's right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the
Registration Rights 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 and in compliance with applicable state securities laws
or under an exemption from such registration.
(iii) Purchaser Status. At the time such Purchaser was offered the
Securities to be acquired hereunder by such Purchaser, it was, at the date
hereof, it is, and at the Closing Date, it will be, an "accredited investor" as
defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.
(iv) Experience of 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.
(v) Ability of Purchaser to Bear Risk of Investment. Such
Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities are speculative investments and
involve a high degree of risk and such Purchaser is able to bear the economic
risk of an investment in the Securities to be acquired hereunder by such
Purchaser, and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such
investment.
(vi) Access to Information. Such Purchaser acknowledges receipt of
the Disclosure Materials and further acknowledges that it has been afforded (i)
the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to
receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and
conditions of the offering of the Securities, and the merits and risks of
investing in the Securities, (ii) access to information about the Company and
the Company's financial condition, results of operations, business, properties,
management and prospects sufficient to enable it to eval uate its investment,
and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information which the
Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is
necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment
and to verify the accuracy and completeness of the information contained in the
Disclosure Materials. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation
conducted by or on behalf of such Purchaser or its representatives or counsel
shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser's right to rely on the truth,
accuracy and completeness of the Disclosure Materials and the Company's
representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents.
(vii) Reliance. Such Purchaser understands and acknowledges that
(i) the Securities to be acquired by it hereunder 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.

representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 2.2.
ARTICLE 3.
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
3(a) Transfer Restrictions. (i) Securities may only be disposed of pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, to the Company
or pursuant to an available exemption from or in a transaction not subject to
the registration requirements thereof. In connection with any transfer of any
Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or to the
Company, 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 under the Securities Act.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby consents to and agrees to
register (i) any transfer of Securities by one Purchaser to another Purchaser,
and agrees that no documentation other than executed transfer documents shall be
required for any such transfer, and (ii) any transfer by any Purchaser to an
Affiliate of such Purchaser or to an Affiliate of another Purchaser, or any
transfers among any such Affiliates provided in each case of clauses (i) and
(ii) the transferee certifies to the Company that it is an "accredited investor"
as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. Any such Purchaser or
Affiliate transferee shall have the rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement.
(ii) The Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is
required by this Section 3.1(b), of the following legend on the Securities:
NEITHER THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE
SECURITIES ARE [CONVERTIBLE] [EXERCISABLE] HAVE 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.
[FOR PREFERRED STOCK ONLY] THESE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER
AND CONVERSION SET FORTH IN SECTION 3.8 OF A CONVERTIBLE
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1997,
BETWEEN SAY YES FOODS, INC. (THE "COMPANY") AND THE ORIGINAL
HOLDERS HEREOF. A COPY OF THAT AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE
PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.
Underlying Shares shall not contain the legend set forth above if
the conversion of Preferred Stock, exercise of Warrants or other issuances of
Underlying Shares as contemplated hereby, as the case may be, occurs at any time
while an Underlying Shares Registration Statement is effective under the
Securities Act or, in the event there is not an effective Underlying Shares
Registration Statement at such time, if in the opinion of counsel to the Company
such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act
(including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of
the Commission). The Company agrees that it will provide the Purchaser, upon
request, with a certificate or certificates representing Underlying Shares, free
from such legend at such time as such legend is no longer required hereunder.
The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any
transfer agent of the Company which enlarge the restrictions of transfer set
forth in this Section 3.1(b).
3(b) Acknowledgement of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the
issuance of Underlying Shares upon (i) conversion of the Preferred Stock and as
payment of interest thereon and (ii) exercise of the Warrants 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 obligation to issue Underlying Shares, as provided in the Transaction
Documents, is not and shall not be effected by any such dilution.
3(c) Furnishing of Information. As long as the 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 Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act. If at any time prior to the date on which the Purchaser may resell
all of its Underlying Shares without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k)
promulgated under the Securities Act (as determined by counsel to the Company
pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to
the Company's transfer agent for the benefit of and enforceable by the
Purchaser) the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such
sections, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchaser and make publicly
available in accordance with Rule 144(c) promulgated under the Securities Act
annual and quarterly financial statements, together with a discussion and
analysis of such financial statements in form and substance substantially
similar to those that would otherwise be required to be included in reports
required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act in the time period that
such filings would have been required to have been made under the Exchange Act.
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 Securities without registration under
the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act, including the legal opinion referenced
above in this Section. Upon the request of any such Person, the Company shall
deliver to such Person a written certification of a duly authorized officer as
to whether it has complied with such requirements.
3(d) Use of Disclosure Materials. The Company consents to the use of the
Disclosure Materials and any information provided by or on behalf of the Company
pursuant to Section 3.3, and any amendments and supplements thereto, by the
Purchaser in connection with resales of the Securities other than pursuant to an
effective registration statement.
3(e) Blue Sky Laws. In accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement,
the Company shall qualify the Underlying Shares under the securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as the Purchaser may request and shall continue such
qualification at all times until the Purchaser notifies the Company in writing
that they no longer own Securities; provided, however, that neither the Company
nor its Subsidiaries shall be required in connection therewith to qualify as a
foreign corporation where they are not now so qualified or to take any action
that would subject the Company to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
3(f) Integration. The Company shall not and shall use its best efforts to
ensure that no Affiliate 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 issue or sale of the Securities to the Purchaser.
3(g) Increase in Authorized Shares. At such time as the Company would be,
if a notice of conversion or exercise (as the case may be) were to be delivered
on such date, precluded from (a) converting the full outstanding principal
amount of Preferred Stock (and paying any accrued but unpaid dividends in
respect thereof in shares of Common Stock) that remain unconverted at such date
or (b) honoring the exercise in full of the Warrants due to the unavailability
of a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued or re-acquired
Common Stock, the Board of Directors of the Company shall promptly (and in any
case within 30 Business Days from such date) prepare and mail to the
shareholders of the Company proxy materials requesting authorization to amend
the
Company's restated certificate of incorporation to increase the number of shares
of Common Stock which the Company is authorized to issue to at least such number
of shares as reasonably requested by the Purchaser in order to provide for such
number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock to enable the Company
to comply with its conversion, exercise and reservation of shares obligations as
set forth in this Agreement, the Preferred Stock and the Warrants. In connection
therewith, the Board of Directors shall (a) adopt proper resolutions authorizing
such increase, (b) recommend to and otherwise use its best efforts to promptly
and duly obtain stockholder approval to carry out such resolutions (and hold a
special meeting of the shareholders no later than the 60th day after delivery of
the proxy materials relating to such meeting) and (c) within 5 Business Days of
obtaining such shareholder authorization, file an appropriate amendment to the
Company's certificate of incorporation to evidence such increase.
3(h) Purchaser Ownership of Common Stock. The Purchaser shall not convert
Preferred Stock or exercise its Warrant to the extent such conversion or
exercise would result in such Purchaser beneficially owning (as determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in
excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock,
including shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and the Series
B Preferred and the Series B Warrants held by such Purchaser after application
of this Section. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section
applies, the determination of whether Preferred Stock are convertible (in
relation to other securities owned by a Purchaser) and of which portion of the
principal amount of such Preferred Stock are convertible shall be in the sole
discretion of such Purchaser, and the submission of Preferred Stock for
conversion shall be deemed to be such Purchaser's determination of whether such
Preferred Stock are convertible (in relation to other securities owned by a
Purchaser) and of which portion of such Preferred Stock are convertible, in each
case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have
no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a Purchaser to convert
Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred at such time as such conversion will not
violate the provisions of this Section. The provisions of this Section may be
waived by a Purchaser as to itself (and solely as to itself) upon not less than
75 days prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of this Section shall
continue to apply until such 75th day (or later, if stated in the notice of
waiver).
3(i) Listing of Underlying Shares. The Company will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to list the Common Stock for trading on either the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market or Nasdaq National Market as soon as possible after the Closing
Date and to maintain such listing thereafter as long as Underlying Shares are
outstanding. If the Common Stock hereafter is listed for trading on the Nasdaq
National Market, Nasdaq
SmallCap Market (or on the American Stock Exchange or New York Stock Exchange,
or any other national securities market or exchange), then the Company shall (1)
take all necessary steps to list the Underlying Shares thereon, including the
preparation of any required additional listing application therefor covering at
least the sum of (i) two times the number of Underlying Shares as would be
issuable upon a conversion in full of the then outstanding principal amount of
Preferred Stock (plus all Underlying Shares are issuable as payment of dividends
thereon, assuming all such dividends were paid in shares of Common Stock) and
upon exercise in full of the then unexercised portion of the Warrants and (2)
provide to the Purchaser evidence of such listing, and the Company shall
maintain the listing of its Common Stock on such exchange or market. In
addition, if at any time following the listing of the Underlying Shares in
accordance with the foregoing, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on
conversion of all then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, on account of
accrued and unpaid dividends thereon and upon exercise in full of the Warrants
is greater than the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore listed, the
Company shall promptly take such action to file an additional shares listing
application covering at least a number of shares equal to the sum of (x) 200% of
(A) the number of Underlying Shares as would then be issuable upon a conversion
in full of the Preferred Stock, and (B) the number of Underlying Shares as would
be issuable as payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock and (y) the number of
Underlying Shares as would be issuable upon exercise in full of the Warrants.
3(j) Conversion Procedures. Exhibit E sets forth the form of Transfer
Agent Instructions which shall be executed by the Company's transfer agent prior
to the Closing Date.
3(k) Purchaser's Rights if Trading in Common Stock is Suspended or
Delisted. If at any time while any Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) owns any
Securities the Common Stock is not Actively Traded (as defined below) on the OTC
Bulletin Board (or, if after the Closing Date the Common Stock is listed on any
of the exchange, markets or trading facilities contemplated in Section 3.9, if
the Common Stock is delisted or suspended from trading on such exchange, market
or trading facility, other than as a result of the suspension of trading in
securities on such market or exchange generally, or temporary suspensions
pending the release of material information) for more than three (3) Trading
Days, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Transaction Document, at a Purchaser's option exercisable by five (5) Business
Days prior written notice to the Company, the Company shall redeem all Preferred
Stock and Underlying Shares then held by the Purchaser, at an aggregate purchase
price equal to the sum of (I) the number of shares of Preferred Stock then held
by the Purchaser multiplied by the product of (1) the average Per Share Market
Value for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding (a) the day of such
notice or (b) the date of payment in full of the
redemption price calculated under this Section 3.11, whichever is greater,
multiplied by (2) the Conversion Ratio on the date of the repurchase notice,
(II) the number of Underlying Shares then held by the Purchaser multiplied by
the average Per Share Market Value for the five (5) Trading Days immediately
preceding (A) the date of the notice or (B) the date of payment in full by the
Company of the redemption price calculated under this Section 3.11, whichever is
greater, and (III) interest on the amounts set forth in I - II above accruing
from the 5th day after such notice until the redemption price under this Section
3.11 is paid in full at the rate of 15% per annum. If after the Original Issue
Date the Common Stock shall be listed for trading or quoted on the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market, Nasdaq National Market or any other national securities
exchange or market, this provision shall similarly apply to any delistings or
suspensions therefrom. The term "Actively Traded" shall mean that (i) shares of
Common Stock worth at least $500,000 trade on the OTC Bulletin Board (or any
other national securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then
listed or traded) in any five consecutive Trading Day period and (ii) there are
at least eight (8) market makers actively making a market in the Common Stock.
3(l) Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use all of the proceeds from the
sale of the Securities for working capital purposes and not for the satisfaction
of Company debt or to redeem Company any equity or equity-equivalent securities.
Pending application of the proceeds of this placement in the manner permitted
hereby the Company will invest such proceeds in interest bearing accounts and/or
short-term, investment grade interest bearing securities.
3(m) Notice of Breaches. Each of the Company and the Purchaser shall give
prompt written notice to the other of any breach by it of any representation,
warranty or other agreement contained in any Transaction Document, as well as
any events or occurrences arising after the date hereof, which would reasonably
be likely to cause any representation or warranty or other agreement of such
party, as the case may be, contained in the Transaction Document to be incorrect
or breached as of such Closing Date. However, no disclosure by either party
pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to cure any breach of any
representation, warranty or other agreement contained in any Transaction
Document.
Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall promptly
notify the Purchaser of any notice or claim (written or oral) that it receives
from any lender of the Company to the effect that the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents violates or would violate
any written agreement or understanding between such lender and the Company, and
the Company shall promptly furnish by facsimile to the holders of the Preferred
Stock a copy of any written statement in support of or relating to such claim or
notice.

Affiliates' equity or equity-equivalent securities or any instrument that
permits the holder thereof to acquire Common Stock at any time over the life of
the security or investment at a price that is less than the market price of the
Common Stock at the time of issuance of such security or investment (a
"Subsequent Financing") for a period of 180 days after the Closing Date, except

and the issuance of shares upon exercise of options granted, under any stock
option plan heretofore or hereinafter duly adopted by the Company, (ii) shares

in Schedule 3.1(c), and (iii) shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of

Warrants in accordance with their respective terms, unless (A) the Company
delivers to Encore a written notice (the "Subsequent Financing Notice") of its
intention 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 shall be affected, and attached to which
shall be a term sheet or similar document relating thereto and (B) Encore shall
not have notified the Company by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the tenth

willingness to cause the Purchaser to provide (or to cause its sole designee to
provide), subject to completion of mutually acceptable documentation, financing
to the Company on substantially the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing
Notice. If Encore shall fail to notify the Company of its intention to enter
into such negotiations within such time period, the Company may effect the
Subsequent Financing substantially upon the terms and to the Persons (or
Affiliates of such Persons) set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice;
provided, that the Company shall provide Encore with a second Subsequent
Financing Notice, and Encore shall again have the right of first refusal set
forth above in this paragraph (a), if the Subsequent Financing subject to the
initial Subsequent Financing Notice shall not have been consummated for any
reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty
(30) Trading Days after the date of the initial
Subsequent Financing Notice with the Person (or an Affiliate of such Person)
identified in the Subsequent Financing Notice.
(ii) Except Underlying Shares and other "Registrable Securities"
(as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to be registered
in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, and other than Company
securities to be registered for resale in connection with financings permitted
pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) through (iii) of this Section, the Company shall

to Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act, or (ii) register for
resale any securities of the Company for a period of not less than 90 Trading
Days after the date that the Underlying Shares Registration Statement is
declared effective by the Commission. Any days that a Purchaser is unable to
sell Underlying Shares under the Underlying Shares Registration Statement shall
be added to such 90 Trading Day period for the purposes of (i) and (ii) above.

outstanding, the

of the holders of the Preferred Stock, (i) amend its certificate of
incorporation, bylaws or other charter documents so as to adversely affect any
rights of the holders of Preferred Stock; (ii) repay, repurchase or offer to
repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire shares of its Common Stock other than as

of the foregoing.

Purchaser, a Common Stock purchase warrant, in the form of Exhibit D (the

issuance thereof, to acquire 62,500 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price

statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and neither
party shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public

not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that no prior consent shall be

disclosing party shall provide the other party with prior notice of such public
statement.

of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, becomes involved in any capacity
in any action, proceeding or investigation brought by or against any person,
