Agreement (this "Agreement"), made this ---- day of -------------, 2001 by
and between MANAGED ACQUISITIONS CORP. a Delaware corporation (the "Company")

acceptance by the Company, the Subscriber hereby irrevocably offers to purchase
------------------ Units (the "Securities"), each Unit consisting of one share
of Common Stock and one Class "A" Warrant and one Class "B" Warrant at a
purchase at a price of $.25 per Unit, for a total purchase price of
$-------------------. The price is payable in full by check payable to
"Xxxxxxxxxx Bank, on behalf of Managed Acquisition Corp." or by wire transfer or
money order.
1.02 Acceptance of Subscription. The Company reserves the right to reject
the Subscriber's offer in whole or in part, for any reason, and to allocate less
than the maximum number of Securities the Subscriber hereby offers to purchase.
Any sale of Securities to the Subscriber shall not be deemed to occur until the
Subscribers' offer is accepted in writing by the Company. The Subscriber shall
not have any recourse against the Company if a purchase offer is rejected in
whole or in part. The Company shall reasonably notify the Subscriber in writing
of the acceptance of a purchase offer. If the offer is rejected in whole or in
part, the Company will promptly return to the Subscriber, without deduction or
interest, all or a ratable portion of the subscription price, as the case may
be, together with all executed documents tendered by the Subscriber. If the
purchase offer is rejected in part only, the Subscriber shall immediately
complete, execute, and deliver to the Company new subscription documents for the
appropriate reduced amount.
1.03 Escrow of Funds and Certificate and Restriction on Transfer of
Securities. The Securities have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933
(the "Act") pursuant to Rule 419 thereto.
Rule 419 requires that before the Securities can be released, the Company
must first execute an agreement to acquire a business. The agreement must
provide for the acquisition of a business or assets for which the fair value of
the business represents at least 80% of the maximum offering proceeds, including
funds received or to be received from the exercise of warrants.
Once the acquisition agreement has been executed, Rule 419 requires the
Company to update the registration statement with a post-effective amendment.
The post-effective amendment must contain information about:
-- the proposed acquisition candidate and its business, including audited
financial statements;
-- the results of the offering; and
-- the use of the funds disbursed from the escrow account.
1.04 The reconfirmation offering.
The reconfirmation offer must commence within five business days after the
effective date of the post-effective amendment and must include the following
conditions:
-- the prospectus contained in the post-effective amendment will be
sent to each Subscriber within five business days after the
effective date of the post-effective amendment;
-- each Subscriber will have no fewer than 20, and no more than 45,
business days from the effective date of the post-effective
amendment to notify the Company in writing that he or she elects
to remain a Subscriber;
-- if the Company does not receive written notification from any
Subscriber within 45 business days following the effective date,
the Subscriber's escrowed securities will be returned to the
Company and the Subscriber's escrowed funds to the Subscriber;
-- unless Subscribers representing 80% of the maximum offering
proceeds elect to remain Subscribers, the acquisition of the
target business would be prevented, deposited securities held in
escrow will be returned to the Company and the funds to the
Subscribers; and
-- if a consummated acquisition has not occurred within 18 months
from the date of this prospectus, the deposited securities held
in the escrow account will be returned to the Company and the
funds to the Subscribers.
The Securities may be released to Subscribers after the escrow agent has
received a signed representation from the Company and any other evidence
acceptable by the escrow agent that:
-- the Company has executed an agreement for the acquisition of a
business for which the value of the business represents at least
80% of the maximum offering proceeds and the Company has filed
the required post-effective amendment;
-- the post-effective amendment has been declared effective;
-- the reconfirmation offer has been completed;
-- the Company has satisfied all of the prescribed conditions of the
reconfirmation offer; and
-- the acquisition of the business with the fair value of at least
80% of the maximum proceeds has been consummated.
