----
duly executed promissory note of the Borrower, in the form of Exhibit A hereto

shall deliver to the Lender a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the
Borrower, certifying that (i) the representations and warranties of the Borrower
set forth in Section 3.1 of this Agreement are true and correct as if made on
the Funding Date and (ii) all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 shall
have been satisfied on or prior to the Funding Date.
(b) On the Closing Date, the Borrower shall (i) deliver the Designated
Securities by delivering actual stock certificates therefor in accordance with
the terms and conditions of the Assignment Agreement, (ii) deliver duly executed
copies of the Assignment Agreement and (iii) the other documents and payments

amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of such non-payment
until such overdue principal, interest or other amount is paid in full (and
shall continue after any judgment as before any such judgment).

-----------------------
(a) Interest on the Loan shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day
year for the actual days elapsed.

reimbursement obligations or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or
counterclaim and shall be made to the Lender at a bank account designated by it
for such purpose, in lawful money of the United States of America and in
immediately available funds. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on
a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest
thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If
any payment on the Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business
Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day
unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another
calendar month in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day.
2.8. Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Lender and all of its
---------
members, officers, directors, managers, employees, shareholders and partners and
any of the foregoing persons' agents and other representatives (including,
without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the "Lender Indemnitees") and to
------------------
hold the Lender Indemnitees harmless from any loss or expense which the Lender
Indemnitees may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any misrepresentation
or breach of warranty made by the Borrower in this Agreement or the Loan
Documents or any other certificate or document contemplated hereby or thereby,
(b) any default by the Borrower in payment when due of the principal amount of
or interest on the Loan, (c) any other breach of any convenant, agreement or
obligation of the Borrower in this Agreement or the Loan Documents and (d) any
cause of action, suit or claim brought by or made against such Lender Indemnitee
by a third party arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery,
performance or breach by the Borrower or enforcement of this Agreement or the
Loan Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated
hereby or thereby or (ii) the status of the Lender or the Borrower.

termination of this Agreement and payment of the Note.
SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY
--------------------------------------------------------
In order to induce the Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make the

------------------------------
organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction in which it is incorporated or formed, and has the requisite
corporate or other power and authorization to own its properties and to carry on
its business as now being conducted and currently contemplated.
8
The Borrower is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of
property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification
necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in
good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower has
furnished to the Lender on or prior to the Closing Date true and correct copies
of the Borrower's Articles of Association, as amended and as in effect on the
date hereof (the "Articles of Association"), and the Borrower's Memorandum of

have been duly authorized by the Borrower's Board of Directors and no further
consent or authorization is required by the Borrower, its Board of Directors or
its shareholders, (iii) this Agreement and the Loan Documents have been duly
executed and delivered by the Borrower, and (iv) this Agreement and the Loan

relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors' rights and
remedies.
3.3. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this
------------
Agreement and the Loan Documents by the Borrower and the consummation by the
Borrower of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result
in a violation of the Articles of Association, any Certificate of Designations,
Preferences and Rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock of the
Borrower or the Memorandum of Association; (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 material agreement, indenture or instrument
to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in
a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable
to the Borrower. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3.3, the Borrower is not in
------------
violation of any term of, or in default under, (x) its Articles of Association,
any Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of any outstanding
series of preferred stock or Memorandum of Association, its organizational
charter or any other Governing Document, respectively, (y) any material
contract, agreement, mortgage, indebtedness, indenture, instrument, or (z) any
judgment, decree or order or any statute, rule or regulation applicable to the
Borrower. The business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is not being
conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental
entity. The Borrower is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or
order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court, governmental
agency or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency in order for it to execute,
deliver or perform any of its obligations under, or contemplated by, this
Agreement or the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof.
All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the
Borrower is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been
obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof.
9
3.4. Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry
---------------------
or investigation before or by any court, public board, governmental agency,
self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the
Borrower threatened against or affecting the Borrower, the common stock of the
Borrower or the Borrower's officers or directors in their capacities as such,
except as set forth in Schedule 3.5.
------------
3.5. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Neither the Borrower, nor any director,
-----------------------------
officer, agent, employee or other person acting on behalf of the Borrower has,
in the course of acting for, or on behalf of, the Borrower, directly or

-------
claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder's fees or similar payments
by the Borrower or the Lender relating to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the Loan Documents.
3.7. Solvency.
--------
(a) Based on the financial condition of the Borrower as of the Closing
Date both before and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the Loan Documents, the Borrower's fair saleable value of its
assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of
the Borrower's existing debts and other liabilities (including contingent
liabilities) as they mature.
(b) Based on the financial condition of the Borrower as of the Closing
Date both before and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the Loan Documents, the Borrower's assets do not constitute
unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as now conducted and as
proposed to be conducted, including the Borrower's capital needs taking into
account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the
Borrower, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof.
(c) The Borrower does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to
pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of
cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). Based on the financial
condition of the Borrower as of the Closing Date both before and after giving
effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Loan
Documents, the current cash flow of the Borrower, together with the proceeds the
Borrower received from such transactions, were it to liquidate all of its
assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be
sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are
required to be paid.
10
(d) The Borrower does not intend, and does not believe, that final
judgments against the Borrower in actions for money damages will be rendered at
a time when, or in an amount such that, the Borrower will be unable to satisfy
any such judgments promptly in accordance with their terms (taking into account
the maximum reasonable amount of such judgments in any such actions and the
earliest reasonable time at which such judgments might be rendered). The
Borrower's cash flow, after taking into account all other anticipated uses of
the cash (including the payments on or in respect of debt referred to in
paragraph (c) above), will at all times be sufficient to pay all such judgments
promptly in accordance with their terms.
(e) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to
any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.
3.8. Title. The Borrower has good and marketable title to all personal
-----
property owned by it which is material to the business of the Borrower, free and
clear of all Liens, except for the Lien in favor of the Lender created pursuant
to the Borrower Security Agreement. The Borrower does not own any real property.
3.9. Business of the Borrower. The Borrower is not presently, and has not
------------------------
been, engaged in any other business other than holding securities of the
Company. The Company is the only direct Subsidiary of the Borrower. The Borrower
does not have any liabilities (contingent or otherwise), other than the
liabilities set forth in Schedule 3.11. The Borrower's principal place of
-------------
business is located at the address set forth in the Note, and the Borrower does
not conduct its business at any other location.
3.10. No Defaults. There is no Event of Default (as defined in Section 7
-----------
hereof) and no event has occurred and no condition exists which, upon the giving
of notice of the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default.
SECTION 4. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT
