officers, directors, auditors, and counsel to cause such
registration statement to become effective as promptly as
practicable thereafter. The registration statement filed by the
Company pursuant to this section may include securities sold by the
Company or on behalf of persons other than Investor.
4. Payment of Purchase Price. The Investor shall pay for the Common
Shares by wire transfer of funds into the following bank account on
or before close of business on December 31, 1999 (the "Closing

of the purchase price, the Company shall cause Common Share
certificate(s) to be issued in the Investor's name and delivered to

agency or authority to set aside, restrain, enjoin or prevent the
consummation of any transaction contemplated hereby.
6. Representations and Warranties. The Investor makes the
representations, declarations and warranties set forth in this
Section with the intent that the same may be relied upon in

limited private offering and that no federal, state or other agency
has made any finding or determination as to the fairness of the

in part. The Investor further understands that the Common Shares
are not being sold to the Investor in a transaction registered under

state securities laws. As a result, the Investor understands that
there will be restrictions on the transfer and sale of the Common
Shares. The Investor further understands that the Company has
agreed to file a Registration Statement with the Securities and

been declared effective. Investor hereby agrees to exercise the
registration rights granted hereby, and to sell the Common Shares
pursuant to the registration, only in a manner consistent with the
representations and warranties made by Investor to the Company
hereunder. Investor understands that the SEC may in its discretion
comment on certain aspects of the Registration Statement and the
transaction and that such comments may cause delay in the
Registration Statement becoming effective. Except as otherwise set
forth herein, the Company shall have no liability to Investor on
account of any such delay initiated by the SEC.
(d) Investment Information. The investor has received and reviewed
pertinent information regarding the Company, including the most
recent SEC Forms 10-K and 10-Q prior to the execution of this
Agreement and is capable of understanding and evaluating the
information contained therein. Specifically, the Investor is fully
aware of the risks relating to the business of the Company and
purchase of the Common Shares. The Investor will rely solely upon
its independent investigation and analysis in making the decision to
purchase the Common Shares. In particular, and without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Investor has not relied on, and the
Investor's decision to subscribe for Common Shares has not been
influenced by: (i) newspaper, magazine or other media articles or
reports related to the Company or its business; (ii) promotional
literature or other materials used by the Company for sales or
marketing purposes, or (iii) any other written or oral statement of
the Company or persons purporting to represent the Company. The
Investor has had the opportunity to discuss all aspects of this
transaction with management of the Company, has made or has had the
opportunity to make such inspection of the books and records of the
Company as the Investor has deemed necessary in connection with this
investment, and any questions asked have been answered to the
satisfaction of the Investor.

is confidential. The Investor has not distributed information on
the Offering to anyone other than such legal or financial advisors
as the Investor has deemed necessary for purposes of evaluating an
investment in the Common Shares.
(f) Authorization and Formation of Investor. The Investor,
if a corporation, partnership, trust or other form of business
entity, is authorized and otherwise duly qualified to purchase and
hold the Common Shares and such entity has not been formed for the
specific purposes of acquiring Common Shares in the Offering. If
the Investor is one of the aforementioned entities, it hereby agrees
that upon request of the Company it will supply the Company with any
additional written information that may be requested by the Company.

warranties of the Investor herein in determining whether a sale of
the Common Shares to the Investor is in compliance with federal and
applicable state securities laws.
