which each holder of Common Stock will receive two (2) shares of Common Stock in
a newly formed Delaware entity for every one (1) share of Common Stock held in
the Company, and, if such reorganization is completed, the conversion rate under
the Debenture will adjust to $0.71 per share, the shares subject to the Warrants
will adjust to 457,746 shares and the exercise price thereunder will adjust to

rate of $1.42 per share) at the current Bank of America prime rate plus 1/2%,
and of which the principal amount is convertible (at an initial conversion rate
of $1.42 per share) into 228,873 shares of the Company's Common Stock, and (b)

as payment of interest on the Debenture, except when the context indicates
otherwise) and Warrants are referred to herein collectively as the "PURCHASED

Company shall immediately issue to the Investor additional shares of Common
Stock and additional Purchased Warrants, the amounts of which shall equal: the
number of initial shares of Common Stock into which the Debenture is convertible
on the date hereof times ($30,000,000/Total Market Valuation); and the number of

($30,000,000/Total Market Valuation).

this Agreement the Investor hereby confirms, that the Purchased Securities to be
received by the Investor will be acquired for investment for the Investor's own
account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or
distribution of any part thereof such that the Investor would constitute an

Purchased Securities.
(b) Each Investor understands and acknowledges that the offering
of the Purchased Securities pursuant to this Agreement will not be registered
under the Securities Act or qualified under any Blue Sky Laws on the grounds
that the offering and sale of the Purchased Securities are exempt from
registration and qualification, respectively, under the Securities Act and the
Blue Sky Laws, and that the Company's reliance upon such exemption is predicated
upon the Investor's representations set forth in this Agreement.
(c) The Investor covenants that, unless the Debentures the
Warrants, the Underlying Shares or any other shares of capital stock of the
Company received in respect of the foregoing have been registered pursuant to
the registration rights granted hereunder, the Investor, the Investor will not
dispose of such securities unless and until the Investor shall have notified the
Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company
to the effect that (x) such disposition will not require registration under the
Securities Act and (y) appropriate action necessary for compliance with the
Securities Act and any applicable state, local or foreign law has been taken;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Investor may dispose of such securities without
providing the opinion referred to above if the Company has been provided with

to such information together with the opportunity to obtain such additional
information as it has requested to verify the accuracy of the information
supplied; and (v) the Investor has had access to officers of the Company and an

had all questions that have been asked by the Investor satisfactorily answered
by the Company.

is defined under Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act. The Investor
further represents by execution of this Agreement that it has not been organized
for the purpose of purchasing the Purchased Securities.
(f) By acceptance hereof, each Investor agrees that the
Debenture, Warrants, the Underlying Shares and any shares of capital stock of
the Company received in respect of the foregoing held by it may not be sold by
the Investor without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption
therefrom, and therefore the Investor may be required to hold such securities
for an indeterminate period.
4

respects with its obligations to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement, the
Investor agrees that it and its affiliates shall not hold a short position or
engage in short sales or other hedging transactions relating to the Common Stock
of the Company.

reason of a stock split or share reclassification thereof, a stock dividend
thereon or otherwise and each certificate for any such securities issued to
subsequent transferees of any such certificate (unless otherwise permitted
herein) shall bear the following legend:

(including interest and penalties, if any) that may be determined to be payable
in respect of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the issue and sale
of any Purchased Securities, the expense of preparing and issuing the Purchased
Securities, the cost of delivering the Purchased Securities purchased by the
Investor to the Investor's home office, and the costs and expenses incurred in
the preparation of all certificates and letters on behalf of the Company and of
the Company's performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions
contained herein on its part to be performed or complied with. The Investor
shall be responsible for its out-of-pocket expenses arising in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereunder, including, without limitations, fees
and disbursements of counsel to the Investor and due diligence expenses of the
Investor that exceed $7,500.
(b) The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Investor
has been induced to enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Purchased
Securities hereunder, in part, based upon the representations, warranties and
covenants of the Company contained herein. The company hereby agrees to pay,
indemnify and hold harmless the Investor an any director, officer or employee of
the Investor against all claims, losses and damages resulting from any and all
legal or administrative proceedings, including without limitation, reasonable
attorney's fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith (collectively,
"LOSS"), resulting from a breach by the Company of any representation or
warranty of the Company contained herein or the failure of the Company to
perform any covenant made herein.
(c) As soon as reasonably practicable after the receipt by the
Investor of notice of any Loss in respect of which the Company may be liable
under this Section 5.2, the Investor shall give notice thereof to the Company.
The Investor may, at its option, claim indemnity under this Section 5.2 as soon
as a claim has been threatened by a third party, regardless of whether an actual
Loss has been suffered, so long as counsel for the Investor shall in good faith
determine that such claim is not frivolous and that the Investor may be liable
or otherwise incur a Loss as a result thereof and shall five notice of such
determination to the Company. The Investor shall permit the Company, at the
Company's option and expense, to assume the defense of any such claim by counsel
mutually and reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Investor and to
settle or otherwise dispose of the same; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Investor
may at all times participate in such defense at the Investor's expense; and
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Company shall not, in defense of any such claim,
except with the prior written consent of the Investor, (i) consent to entry of
any judgment that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving
by the claimant or plaintiff in question to the Investor and its subsidiaries of
a release of all liabilities in respect of such claims, or (ii) consent to any
settlement of such claim. If the Company does not promptly assume the defense of
such claim irrespective of whether such
6
inability is due to the inability of the Investor and the Company to mutually
agree as to the choice of counsel, or if any such counsel is unable to represent
an investor due to a conflict or potential conflict of interest, then the
Investor may assume such defense and be entitled to indemnification and prompt
reimbursement from the Company for its costs and expenses incurred in connection
therewith, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses. Such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed to the Investor as soon as
practicable after the submission of invoices to the Company.
5.3 DEMAND REGISTRATION.
(a) No later than September 15, 2000, the Company shall effect a
registration with respect to all of the Underlying Shares subject to the
Debenture and the Warrant, and the Company shall:
(i) within 30 days prior to the Filing of the registration
statement, promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to the
Investors; and
(ii) as soon as practicable use its best efforts to register
(including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file
post-effective amendments and any other governmental requirements) all
Underlying Shares subject to the Debenture and the Warrant which the Investor
notifies the Company in writing within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the
notice that it wishes to register; provided, that the Company shall not be
obligated to file a registration statement:
(A) prior to September 15, 2000;
(B) within 120 days following the effective date of any
registered offering of the Company's securities to the general public in which
the Investor shall have been able effectively to register all Underlying Shares
as to which registration shall have been requested; and
(C) after the Company has effected one such
registration and such registration has been declared or ordered effective,
except as provided in Section 5.4.
Subject to the foregoing clauses (A) through (c), the Company shall
file a registration statement covering the Underlying Shares so requested to be
registered as soon as practical, but in any event no later than September 15,
2000 and shall use reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement
promptly declared effective by the Commission. Investor shall be entitled to
have the Underlying Shares registered on such registration statement prior to
the time it is able to convert the Debenture into Underlying Shares and prior to
the time it is able to exercise the Warrant for Underlying Shares.
5.4 PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION.
(a) If at any time or from time to time, the Company shall
determine to register any of its securities, for its own account or the account
of any other holders of its
7
Common Stock, other than a registration relating solely to employee benefit
plans, or a registration relating solely to an SEC Rule 145 transaction, a
transaction relating solely to the sale of debt or convertible debt instruments
or a registration on any form which does not include substantially the same
information as would be required to be included in a registration statement
covering the sale of the Underlying Shares, the Company will:
(i) give to the Investor written notice thereof as soon as
practicable prior to filing the registration statement; and
(ii) include in such registration and in any underwriting
involved therein, all the Underlying Shares specified in a written request or
requests, made within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice
from the Company, by the Investor, except as set forth in subsection (b) below.
(b) If the registration is for a registered public offering
involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Investor as a part of
the written notice given pursuant to subsection 6(a)(i). In such event, the
right of the Investor to registration pursuant to Section 6 shall be conditioned
upon the Investor's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the
Investor's Underlying Shares in the underwriting to the extent provided herein.
The Investor shall (together with the Company and the other shareholders
distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 6, if the managing underwriter determines that
marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be
underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Underlying Shares
to be included in the registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise
the Investor and the other shareholders distributing their securities through
such underwriting pursuant to piggyback registration rights similar to this
Section 6, and the number of shares of Underlying Shares and other securities
that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated
among the Investor and other shareholders in proportion, as nearly as
practicable, to the respective amounts of Underlying Shares held by the Investor
and other securities held by other shareholders at the time of filing the
registration statement. If the Investor disapproves of the terms of any such
underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the
Company and the managing underwriter. Any Underlying Shares excluded or
withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.
5.5 EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. All expenses incurred in connection with
one registration hereof including without limitation all registration, filing
and qualification fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursement of counsel for
the Company and expenses of any special audits of the Company's financial
statements incidental to or required by such registration, shall be borne by the
Company, except that the Company shall not be required to pay underwriters'
fees, discounts or commissions relating to Underlying Shares or fees of a
separate legal counsel of the Investor.
8
5.6. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT OR DELAY.
(a) Without limitation of any other remedy available to a Investor
under applicable law or otherwise, if the Company shall (1) fail to register
Underlying Shares after it shall have been requested to do so by the Investor,
or (2) fail to perform any of its obligations hereunder and as a direct result
of such failure the Investor has not been able to sell its Underlying Shares,
or(3) act or fail to act in any manner such that the Investor has been
materially delayed in the sale of its Underlying Shares, which delay is not
expressly permitted by this Agreement, then the Investor shall be entitled to
any or all of the following remedies, which may be elected in the sole
discretion of the Investor:
(i) the investor shall be entitled to receive additional
shares of Common Stock and Warrants (the "Penalty Securities") equal to 1.5% of
its current holdings (assuming conversion of the Debenture and including
pro-rata share of interest on the Debenture) each month, or if a partial month a
pro rata amount, the registration statement filing is delayed beyond September
15, 2000. The Penalty Securities shall also have the same reset rights and
registration rights as the Purchased Securities, as further described in
paragraphs 1.1, 5.3 and 5.4 herein.
(ii) If the Company shall be prevented by law from making
any payment required to be made under this Section, the obligations hereunder
shall be continuing obligations, and such payments shall be made in partial
payments when, as soon as, and to the extent that, any portion of such payments
shall later be permitted under applicable law.
5.7 DILUTION AND ANTI-DILUTION. If, and as often as, there is any
change in the Common Stock or the Common Stock by way of a stock split, stock
dividend, combination or reclassification, or through a merger, consolidation,
reorganization or recapitalization, or by any other means, appropriate
adjustment shall be made in the provisions hereof so that the rights and
privileges granted hereby shall continue with respect to the Common Stock or the
Common Stock as so changed. If the Company issues securities (other than in a
registered underwriting as specified above) within one (1) year from the signing
of this Agreement at a sale price less than the conversion price pursuant to the
Debenture (except for shares subject to options pursuant to any employee benefit
plan or any other currently outstanding options or warrants on the date hereof
(the "Reduced Purchase Price"), the Company shall immediately issue additional
Warrants so that the Investor may maintain its percentage holdings on a fully
diluted basis as if it had purchased shares of Common Stock at the Reduced
Purchase Price.
6. MISCELLANEOUS
6.1 ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement, the
Warrants, the Debentures and the registration rights contained herein constitute

covenants and agreements of the Company contained in this Agreement or in any

thereto shall have run and the provisions of this Section 6.2 shall constitute a
waiver by the Company of any such applicable statute of limitations.
