      prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries as a whole and (d) the
      Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and
      deliver, and perform all of its obligations under this Agreement.

            4.2 Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by the
      Company of its obligations under this Agreement, other than the issuance
      of stock in payment of principal or interest, has been duly authorized by
      all requisite corporate action and the issuance of any stock in payment of
      principal or interest will be duly authorized prior to any such issuance,
      and in either case, will not, either prior to or as a result of the
      consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement: (a)
      violate any law, any order of any court or other agency of government, any
      provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or
      any contract, indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the
      Company is a party, or by which the Company or any of its assets or

      or constitute (after the giving of notice or lapse of time or both) a

      nature whatsoever upon any of the property or assets of any Company
      pursuant to, or result in the acceleration of, any such contract,
      indenture, agreement or other instrument. The Company is not required to
      obtain any government approval, consent or authorization from, or to file
      any declaration or statement with, any governmental instrumentality or
      agency in connection with or as a condition to the execution, delivery or

      not in violation or breach of or in default with respect to, complying
      with any material provision of any contract, agreement, instrument, lease,
      license, arrangement or understanding to which it is a party, and each
      such contract, agreement, instrument, lease, license, arrangement and
      understanding is in full force and effect and is the legal, valid and
      binding obligation of the Company enforceable as to the Company in
      accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency
      and other laws affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally
      and to general equitable principals). Neither the execution and the
      delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions
      contemplated hereby, will (a) violate any constitution, statute,
      regulation,

      arrangement to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is
      bound or to which any of the Company's assets are subject.

            4.4 Securities Law Exemption. Assuming the accuracy of Purchaser's
      representations and warranties set forth herein, the sale of the Notes
      pursuant to this Agreement has been made in accordance with the provisions

      Securities Act and any applicable state law.

            4.5 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be
      used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

            4.6 No Other Representations. The Company shall not be deemed to
      have made any representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or
      indemnifications pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement,
      whether express or implied, except to the extent that such
      representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or indemnifications are
      made in this Agreement or the Schedules hereto or in any certificate or
      other agreement, document or instrument delivered pursuant to the
      provisions of this Agreement.

      5. Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. The Purchaser hereby
represents and warrants to the Company, which representations and warranties
shall be true and correct as of the date hereof and the Closing Date, as
follows:

            5.1 Authorization of Agreement. The execution, delivery and
      performance of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary
      action on the part of Purchaser, does not violate any laws or regulations
      applicable to Purchaser and is the valid binding and enforceable
      obligation of Purchaser in accordance with its terms.

            5.2 Accredited Investor. Purchaser is an "accredited investor" as
      that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act, and the rules
      promulgated thereunder.

            5.3 Investment. Purchaser acknowledges that this offering of Notes
      have not been reviewed by the United States Securities and Exchange
      Commission ("SEC") and that the sale of the Notes pursuant hereto is
      intended to be a nonpublic offering pursuant to Sections 4(2), 4(6) or
      3(b) of the Securities Act. Purchaser represents that the Notes are being
      purchased for his own account, for investment and not for distribution or
      resale to others. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser will not sell or
      otherwise transfer the Notes or the shares of the Common Stock issuable in
      payment of principal and interest on the Notes or upon Mandatory
      Conversion of the Notes (as defined in the Notes), unless such


                                       3
<PAGE>

      securities, as the case may be, are registered under the Securities Act or
      unless an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser
      understands that neither the Notes nor the shares of Common Stock issuable
      upon in payment of principal and interest on the Notes nor the shares of
      Common Stock issuable upon Mandatory Conversion of the Notes (as defined
      in the Notes) have been registered under the Securities Act and they are
      or will be issued pursuant to a specific exemption from the registration
      provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things,
      the bona fide nature of the investment intent as expressed herein.

            5.4 Access to Data. Purchaser has been given copies of the SEC
      Filings and has had an opportunity to review same. Purchaser has had an
      opportunity to discuss the SEC Filings and the Company's business,
      management and financial affairs with the Company's management and the
      opportunity to review the Company's facilities, each to Purchaser's
      satisfaction. Purchaser understands that such discussions, as well as any
      written information issued or provided by the Company, were intended to
      describe the aspects of the Company's business and prospects which the
      Company believes to be material but were not necessarily a thorough or
      exhaustive description thereof.

            5.5 Speculative Nature of Investment. Purchaser acknowledges that
      the purchase of the Notes involves a high degree of risk and that (i) an
      investment in the Company is highly speculative and only investors who can
      afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in
      the Company and purchasing the Notes; (ii) Purchaser may not be able to
      liquidate his investment; (iii) transferability of the Notes and the
      shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of principal and interest on
      the Notes and upon Mandatory Conversion of the Notes (as defined in the
      Notes) is extremely limited; and (iv) Purchaser could sustain the loss of
      his entire investment.

            5.6 Legends. Purchaser consents to the placement of a legend on the
      Notes and shares of Common Stock issued in payment of interest on the
      Notes and upon Mandatory Conversion of the Notes (as defined in the
      Notes), provided they are not then covered by an effective Registration
      Statement, all as set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement.

            5.7 No Other Representations. Purchaser hereby represents that,
      except as set forth herein, no representations or warranties have been
      made to the Purchaser by the Company or any agent, employee or affiliate
      of the Company and in entering into this transaction, Purchaser is not
      relying on any information, other than that contained herein, that
      contained in the SEC Filings and the results of independent investigation
      by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall not be deemed to have made any
      representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or indemnifications
      pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement, whether express or
      implied, except to the extent that such representations, warranties,
      covenants, agreements or indemnifications are made in this Agreement or
      the Schedules hereto or in any certificate or other agreement, document or
      instrument delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.


                                       4
<PAGE>

            5.8 No Broker. There is no firm, corporation, agency or other entity
      or person that is entitled to a finder's fee or any type of commission in
      relation to or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
      Agreement as a result of any agreement or understanding with Purchaser or
      any of its directors, officers, employees or agents.

            6. Legends. The Notes shall be endorsed with the following legend:

      THIS SECURITY HAS BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND MAY NOT
      BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNTIL (I) A REGISTRATION
      STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") SHALL
      HAVE BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH RESPECT THERETO OR (II) RECEIPT BY THE COMPANY
      OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO THE
      EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH
      SUCH PROPOSED TRANSFER NOR IS IN VIOLATION OF ANY APPLICABLE STATE
      SECURITIES LAWS. THIS LEGEND SHALL BE ENDORSED UPON ANY NOTE ISSUED IN
      EXCHANGE FOR THIS NOTE.

upon the Mandatory Conversion of the Notes (as defined in the Notes), then the
Company, as soon as practicable thereafter, will prepare and file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-3 with
respect to such securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the
distribution contemplated thereby.

      8. Confidentiality. Purchaser covenants and agrees that none of Purchaser,
his agents and representatives will use for their own benefit, convey or
disclose to any third party any information provided by the Company concerning
its current or proposed business, operations and financial conditions, other

required by law.

            body, whether federal, state or local, which, if adversely
            determined, could have a material adverse effect upon their

            occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in the Notes), any
