consolidated balance sheet of the Company and Subsidiary as of November 30,
1999, provided to the Purchasers and "Financial Statements" shall mean the
unaudited, consolidated financial statements of the Company and Subsidiary as of
and for the eleven (11) months ended November 30, 1999 as provided to the

respect of any of the Company's capital stock, or any direct or indirect
redemption, purchase or other acquisition of any of such stock (or any warrant,

or any repayment of Company or Subsidiary debt held by any Related Party or by
an Affiliate;
(D) Any organizational activity, collective bargaining activity, labor
dispute or labor trouble;
(E) Any event or condition of any character, which, either individually
or in the aggregate, materially adversely affects the business, operations or

involving any transaction other than in the usual and ordinary course of
business, except this Agreement and the Bridge Financing Transaction;
(G) Any wage or salary increase made or granted, or entered into by the

for disclosures made to persons subject to valid and enforceable confidentiality
agreements; or
(I) Any material disposition of assets outside the ordinary course of

3.10 TAXES. The Company and Subsidiary has each filed or will file
within the time prescribed by law (including extensions of time approved by any
appropriate taxing authority) all tax returns and reports required to be filed
with the United States Internal Revenue Service and with the States of Delaware,
Massachusetts and New York, and (except to the extent that the failure to file
would not have a material adverse effect on the condition or operations of the
Company or Subsidiary) with all other jurisdictions where such filing is
required by law; and the Company and Subsidiary has paid, or made adequate
provision in the Balance Sheet for the payment of, all taxes, interest,
penalties, assessments or deficiencies due in connection therewith. Neither the
Company nor Subsidiary has ever had any tax deficiency proposed or assessed
against it and neither the Company nor Subsidiary has executed any waiver of any
statute of limitations on the assessment or collection of any tax or
governmental charge. None of the Company's or Subsidiary's federal income tax
returns nor any state income, sales or franchise tax returns has ever been
audited by governmental authorities. No tax audit, action, suit, proceeding,
investigation or claim is now pending nor, to the best of the Company's and
Subsidiary's knowledge after reasonable inquiry, threatened against the Company
or Subsidiary, and no issue or question has been raised (and is currently
pending) by any taxing authority in connection with any of the Company's or
Subsidiary's tax returns or reports.
The Company and Subsidiary each has withheld or collected from each
payment made to each of their employees, the amount of all taxes (including, but
not limited to, federal income taxes, Federal Insurance Contribution Act taxes
and Federal Unemployment Tax Act taxes) required to be withheld or collected
therefrom, and has paid the same to the proper tax receiving officers or
authorized depositaries.
3.11 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. Except as set forth on the
Disclosure Schedule, there is no loan, lease or other continuing transaction
between the Company or Subsidiary and any Related Party and/or Affiliate.
3.12 LITIGATION. Except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule, there
is neither pending nor threatened any action, suit, proceeding or claim, whether
or not purportedly on behalf of the Company or Subsidiary, to which the Company,
Subsidiary or any employee of the Company or Subsidiary is or may be named as a
party or to which the Company's, Subsidiary's or any such person's property is
or may be subject. Except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule, to the
Company's and Subsidiary's knowledge and belief, there is no basis for any such
action, suit, proceeding or claim, in which an unfavorable outcome, ruling or
finding in any such matter or for all such matters, taken as a whole, might have
a material adverse effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, operations
or prospects of the Company or Subsidiary or on the Technology. Except as set
forth on the Disclosure Schedule, the Company and Subsidiary have no knowledge
of any unasserted claim, the assertion of which is likely
-8-
and which, if asserted, will seek damages, an injunction or other legal,
equitable, monetary or nonmonetary relief which if granted would have a material
adverse effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, operations or prospects
of the Company or Subsidiary.
3.13 CONSENTS. No consent, approval or authorization of, or
designation, declaration or filing with, any governmental authority on the part
of the Company or Subsidiary, including qualification under applicable state
securities laws of the offer and sale of the Shares and of the issuance of the
Conversion Shares, is required in connection with the valid execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the offer, sale or issuance of the Shares, the
conversion of the Shares into Common Stock or the issuance of the Conversion
Shares, or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated on the Closing
Date by this Agreement or any of the Financing Documents, except the filing of
the Certificate with the Secretary of the State of Delaware, which filing has
