reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors' rights and
remedies generally and except as rights to indemnity and contribution may be

laws. The Securities have been duly and validly authorized for issuance by the
Company and, when executed and delivered by the Company, will be valid and
binding obligations of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with
their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors'
rights and remedies generally. For purposes of this Agreement, the term

statute, law, rule or regulation applicable to, or any judgment, decree or order
of any court or government body having jurisdiction over, the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets. A "LIEN" means
any assignment, transfer, pledge, mortgage, security interest or other
encumbrance of any nature, or an agreement to do so, or the ownership or

the Commission all reports, proxy statements, forms and other documents required

with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may
be, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder
applicable to such Commission Filings and (ii) none of the Commission Filings

they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of the Company included
in the Commission Filings, as of the dates of such documents, were true and
complete in all material respects and complied with applicable accounting
requirements and the published rules and regulations of the Commission with
respect thereto, were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States ("GAAP") (except in the case of unaudited
statements permitted by Form 10-QSB under the Exchange Act) applied on a
consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated in the
notes thereto) and fairly presented the consolidated financial position of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated
results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject,
in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments that
in the aggregate are not material and to any other adjustment described
therein).

expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) reasonably could be expected
to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to perform its
obligations pursuant to the Documents.

any security similar to the Debenture) which will make unavailable the exemption
from Securities Act registration being relied upon by the Company for the offer
and sale to Holder of the Debenture, the Conversion Shares, the Warrant and the
Warrant Shares as contemplated by this Agreement. No form of general

the Debenture (and the Conversion Shares) and/or the Warrant (and the Warrant

Person has, and as of the Closing (as such term is hereinafter defined), no
Person shall have, any demand, "piggy-back" or other rights to cause the Company

prohibited by the Articles or Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the

party.

returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith
and has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of
all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports

outstanding, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or

I. SHORT SELLING. So long as the Debenture is outstanding, Holder
agrees and covenants on its behalf and on behalf of its affiliates that neither
Holder nor its affiliates shall at any time engage in any short sales with
respect to the Company's Common Stock, or sell put options or similar
instruments with respect to the Company's Common Stock. The parties acknowledge
that Holder shall be entitled to sell the Common Stock from each Debenture
conversion immediately upon submission of the applicable Debenture Conversion
Notice, and payment of the purchase price, to the Company for such Common Stock,
subject to applicable state and federal securities laws.
V. ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK
A. The Company undertakes and agrees that no instruction other than the
instructions referred to in this Article V shall be given to its transfer agent
for the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares and that the Conversion Shares
and the Warrant Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and
records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and
applicable law. Nothing contained in this Section V.A. shall affect in any way
Holder's obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws
upon resale of such Common Stock.
X. Xxxxxx shall have the right to convert the Debenture and exercise
the Warrant by telecopying an executed and completed Conversion Notice (as such
term is defined in the Debenture) or Warrant Notice of Exercise (as such term is
defined in the Warrant) to the Company. Each date on which a Conversion Notice
or Warrant Notice of Exercise is telecopied to and received by the Company in
accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date (as such
term is defined in the Debenture). The Company shall cause the transfer agent to
transmit the certificates evidencing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the Debenture (together with a new debenture, if any, representing the
principal amount of the Debenture not being so converted) or exercise of the
Warrant (together with a new Warrant, if any, representing the amount of the
Warrant not being so exercised) to Holder via express courier, or if a
Registration Statement covering the Common Stock has been declared effective by
the SEC by electronic transfer, within three (3) business days after receipt by
the Company of the Conversion Notice or Warrant Notice of Exercise, as
applicable (the "DELIVERY DATE").
C. Upon the conversion of the Debenture or exercise of the Warrant or
respective part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take
all necessary action (including the issuance of an opinion of counsel) to assure
that the Company's transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of
Holder (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by Holder and in
such denominations to be specified at conversion or exercise representing the
number of shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion or exercise. The
Company warrants that the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares will be
unlegended, free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain a legend
restricting the resale or transferability of the Company Common Stock provided
the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, as applicable, are being sold pursuant
to an effective registration statement covering the Common Stock to be sold or
is otherwise exempt from registration when sold.
D. The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Common
Stock in the form required pursuant to this section, or the Mandatory Redemption
Amount described in Section E hereof, beyond the Delivery Date or Mandatory
Redemption Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) could result in economic loss
to the Holder. As compensation to the Holder for such loss, the Company agrees
______________ ____________
Initials Initials
9
to pay late payments to the Holder for late issuance of Common Stock in the form
required pursuant to Section E hereof upon Conversion of the Debenture or late
payment of the Mandatory Redemption Amount, in the amount of $100 per business
day after the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, as the case
may be, for each $10,000 of Debenture principal amount being converted or
redeemed. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in
immediately available funds upon demand. Furthermore, in addition to any other
remedies which may be available to the Holder, in the event that the Company
fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Common Stock by the Delivery Date
or make payment by the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, the Holder will be
entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion or rescind
all or part of the notice of Mandatory Redemption by delivery of a notice to
such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the Holder shall each be
restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such
notice, except that late payment charges described above shall be payable
through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.
E. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. In the event the Company is prohibited from
issuing Common Stock, or fails to timely deliver Common Stock on a Delivery
Date, or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the
Debenture) or for any reason other than pursuant to the limitations set forth
herein, then at the Holder's election, the Company must pay to the Holder ten
(10) business days after request by the Holder or on the Delivery Date (if
requested by the Holder) a sum of money determined by multiplying up to the
outstanding principal amount of the Debenture designated by the Holder by 120%,
together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon ("Mandatory Redemption
Payment"). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by the Holder on
the same date as the Company Common Stock otherwise deliverable or within ten
(10) business days after request, whichever is sooner ("MANDATORY REDEMPTION
PAYMENT DATE"). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the
corresponding Debenture principal and interest will be deemed paid and no longer
outstanding.
F. BUY-IN. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if
the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of a Debenture or exercise of a Warrant by the Delivery Date and if
ten (10) days after the Delivery Date the Holder purchases (in an open market
transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a
sale by the Holder of the Common Stock which the Holder anticipated receiving
upon such conversion (a "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the
Holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the
amount by which (A) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage
commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the
aggregate principal and/or interest amount of the Debenture or exercise price of
the Warrant for which such conversion or exercise was not timely honored,
together with interest thereon at a rate of 10% per annum, accruing until such
amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be
paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if the Holder
purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to
cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of $10,000 of Debenture
principal and/or interest or the exercise of $10,000 of Warrant Shares, the
Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000, plus interest. The Holder
shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the
Holder in respect of the Buy-In.

G. The Securities shall be delivered by the Company to the Holder
pursuant to Section I.B. hereof on a "delivery-against-payment basis" at the
Closing.
VI. CLOSING DATE

documents evidencing the Debenture and all other Documents, and (ii) to the
Company the Purchase Price, and the date on which the Closing occurs shall be
referred to herein as the "CLOSING DATE".

Holder understands that the Company's obligation to sell the Debenture

and remedies for such breach or violation available to it under the provisions

its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, consultants,

any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, penalties, liabilities and
deficiencies (collectively, "LOSSES") and agrees to reimburse Holder Indemnitees
for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and

Indemnitees and to the extent arising out of or in connection with:
1. any misrepresentation, omission of fact or breach of any of

or the other Documents, or the annexes, schedules or exhibits hereto or
thereto or any instrument, agreement or certificate entered into or

C. Promptly after receipt by either party hereto seeking
indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") of
written notice of any investigation, claim, proceeding or other action in
respect of which indemnification is being sought (each, a "CLAIM"), the
Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the party against whom indemnification
pursuant to this Article VIII is being sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") of the
commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall
not relieve it from any liability that it otherwise may have to the Indemnified
Party except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced
and forfeits substantive rights or defenses by reason of such failure. In
______________ ____________
Initials Initials
13
connection with any Claim as to which both the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party are parties, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to
assume the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any
Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
employ separate legal counsel and to participate in the defense of such Claim,
and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket costs
and expenses of such separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party if (and
only if): (x) the Indemnifying Party shall have agreed to pay such fees,
out-of-pocket costs and expenses, (y) the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
Party reasonably shall have concluded that representation of the Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party by the same legal counsel would not be
appropriate due to actual or, as reasonably determined by legal counsel to the
Indemnified Party, potentially differing interests between such parties in the
conduct of the defense of such Claim, or if there may be legal defenses
available to the Indemnified Party that are in addition to or disparate from
those available to the Indemnifying Party or (z) the Indemnifying Party shall
have failed to employ legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of
such Claim. If the Indemnified Party employs separate legal counsel in
circumstances other than as described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) above, the
fees, costs and expenses of such legal counsel shall be borne exclusively by the
Indemnified Party. Except as provided above, the Indemnifying Party shall not,
in connection with any Claim in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees
and expenses of more than one firm of legal counsel for the Indemnified Party
(together with appropriate local counsel). The Indemnifying Party shall not,
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld), settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the
entry of any judgment that does not include an unconditional release of the
Indemnified Party from all liabilities with respect to such Claim or judgment.
D. In the event one party hereunder should have a claim for
indemnification that does not involve a claim or demand being asserted by a
third party, the Indemnified Party promptly shall deliver notice of such claim
to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party disputes the claim, such
dispute shall be resolved by mutual agreement of the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party or by binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the
procedures and rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon any
award rendered by any arbitrators may be entered in any court having competent
jurisdiction thereof.
X. GOVERNING LAW

the laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflicts of law
principles of such state.
XI. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION

the federal courts whose districts encompass any part of the City of San Diego
or the state courts of the State of California sitting in the City of San Diego

the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any defense of an inconvenient
forum or improper venue to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any
such court and any right of jurisdiction on account of its place of residence or
domicile. Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the

service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding in such courts
by the mailing of copies of such process by registered or certified mail (return
receipt requested), postage prepaid, at its address specified in Article XVII.

shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

XV. SEVERABILITY
In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in the other Documents should be held invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith
negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with
valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
