"Purchaser" and together the "Purchasers"), and is being entered into in
connection with the transaction contemplated by the Company's Confidential
Private Placement Memorandum (the "Memorandum"), dated as of June 13, 2003.
The parties hereby agree as follows:
1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES.
1.1 SALE AND ISSUANCE OF NOTES.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, each Purchaser agrees to purchase at the Closing and the Company
agrees to sell and issue to each Purchaser at the Closing a Convertible Note,
in the form attached to the Memorandum as Exhibit A, in the principal amount
set forth opposite each such Purchaser's name on Exhibit A hereto. Each
Convertible Note will be dated the date of the Closing and will be one of a
duly authorized issue of notes of the Company designated as "6.0% Convertible
Note Due June __, 2006" (with such blank being the third anniversary of the
Initial Closing Date, as defined in the Memorandum), limited in aggregate
principal amount to $5,500,000. The aggregate purchase price for each
Purchaser's respective Convertible Note is equal to the principal amount of the
Convertible Note to be issued to such Purchaser. Each Convertible Note issued
to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement shall be hereinafter referred to
as a "Note" and referred to collectively as the "Notes".
(b) If at least $3,000,000 but less than all of
the authorized principal amount of the Notes is sold at the Closing, then,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company may sell, on
or before the termination or expiration of the offering of the Notes as
provided in the Memorandum, up to the balance of the authorized principal
amount of the Notes to such persons as the officers of the Company may
determine. Any such sale shall be made upon the same terms and conditions as
those contained herein and such persons or entities shall become parties to
this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that any additional purchaser so
acquiring Notes shall be considered a "Purchaser" for purposes of this
Agreement and any Notes so acquired by such additional purchasers shall be
considered "Notes" for purposes of this Agreement and all other agreements
contemplated hereby.

"Material Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect on (i) the business,
properties, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or results of

Stock. As of May 30, 2003, 21,278,114 shares of Common Stock were issued and

its Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan.

of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in
any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of
Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act")) in
connection with the offer or sale of any of the Notes; provided, however,
2
that no representation or warranty is made regarding the activities of the
Placement Agent referred to in the Memorandum.
2.4 AUTHORIZATION. All corporate action on the part of
the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the
authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes

creditors' rights generally, and as limited by laws relating to the availability
of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws. The Conversion
Shares have been duly and validly reserved for issuance, and upon issuance in

will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities
laws.

authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or
filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority on the part of
the Company is required in connection with the consummation of the transactions

statutory period, and the filing pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act,
which will be effected within fifteen (15) days following the Closing, if

2.7 LITIGATION. There is no action, suit, proceeding,
inquiry or investigation before or by any court, arbitrator, public board,
government agency or self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or its

decision, ruling or finding could individually or in the aggregate have a
Material Adverse Effect.
2.8 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. To its knowledge, the Company
owns or possesses sufficient legal rights to all patents, trademarks, service
marks, tradenames, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, information and
proprietary rights and processes necessary for its business without any conflict
with, or infringement of, the rights of others. Other than with respect to a
claim by Lehigh Valley Technologies, which the Company believes could be
resolved without a Material Adverse Effect, the Company has not received any
communications alleging that the Company has violated or, by conducting its
business, would violate any of the patents,
3
trademarks, service marks, tradenames, copyrights, trade secrets or other
proprietary rights or processes of any other person or entity.
2.9 COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS.
(a) The Company is not in violation or default
of any provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or of any
material instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which it is a
party or by which it is bound or, to its knowledge, of any provision of federal
or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company. The execution,
delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will not result in any such
violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of
time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision,
instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract or an event which results
in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the
Company.
(b) To its knowledge, the Company has avoided
every condition, and has not performed any act, the occurrence of which would
result in the Company's loss of any right granted under any material license,
distribution agreement or other agreement.
2.10 CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS. Except for arm's length
transactions pursuant to which the Company makes payments in the ordinary course
of business upon terms no less favorable than the Company could obtain from
third parties and, other than as disclosed in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), none of the officers, directors or
employees of the Company is presently a party to any material transaction with
the Company, including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing
for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or
personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any

corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any officer, director
or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director,
trustee or partner.
2.11 ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS. The Company (i) is in compliance
with any and all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws and
regulations relating to the protection of human health and safety, the

permit, license or approval.
2.12 INSURANCE. The Company is insured by insurers of
recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such
amounts as is prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company is
engaged. The Company does not have any reason to believe that it will not be
able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires
or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to
continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
4
2.13 TITLE TO PROPERTY AND ASSETS. The Company owns its
property and assets free and clear of all mortgages, liens, loans and
encumbrances except for security interests granted to Access Capital and Xxxxx
Xxxx, relating to loans up to an aggregate principal amount of $2,100,000, and
such other encumbrances and liens which arise in the ordinary course of business
and do not materially impair the Company's ownership or use of such property or
assets. With respect to the property and assets it leases, the Company is in
compliance with such leases and, to its knowledge, holds a valid leasehold
interest free of any liens, claims or encumbrances.
2.14 SEC REPORTS AND MEMORANDUM. Since January 1, 2002,
the Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other
documents required to be filed by it with the SEC pursuant to the reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act") (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof and all exhibits
included therein and financial statements and schedules thereto and documents
incorporated by reference therein being hereinafter referred to as the "SEC
Documents"). As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all
material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents,
and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, or the
Memorandum contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the
Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material
respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and
regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
consistently applied during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise
indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case
of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may
be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects
the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of
its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case
of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments). Since December
31, 2002, there has been no material adverse change and no material adverse
development in the business, properties, operations, financial condition or
results of operations of the Company.
2.15 EMPLOYMENT MATTERS. The Company is in compliance with
all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting employment
and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours
except where failure to be in compliance would not have a Material Adverse
Effect. There are no pending investigations involving the Company by the U.S.
Department of Labor or any other governmental agency responsible for the
enforcement of such federal, state, local or foreign laws and regulations. There
is no unfair labor practice charge or complaint against the Company pending
before the National Labor Relations Board or any strike, picketing, boycott,
dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened
against or involving the Company. No representation question exists respecting
the employees of the Company, and no collective bargaining agreement or
modification thereof is currently being negotiated by the Company. No grievance
or arbitration proceeding is pending under any expired or existing collective
bargaining
5
agreements of the Company. No material labor dispute with the employees of the
Company exists or, to the knowledge of the Company, is imminent. Except for
401(k) plans, the Company has no employee benefit plans subject to the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

filed all federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and
declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and
only to the extent that the Company has set aside on its books provisions
reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported taxes) and has
paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material
in amount, shown or determined to be due on such 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 or declarations apply.

for any such claim.

bound by or subject to (and none of its assets or properties is bound by or
subject to) any contract, commitment or arrangement with any labor union, and no
labor union has requested or, to the knowledge of the Company, has sought to
represent any of the employees, representatives or agents of the Company. There
is no strike or other labor dispute involving the Company pending, or to the
knowledge of the Company threatened, which could have a material adverse effect
on the assets, properties, financial condition, operating results, or business
of the Company, nor is the Company aware of any labor organization activity
involving its employees. The employment of each officer and employee of the
Company is terminable at the will of the Company. To its knowledge, the Company
has complied in all material respects with all applicable state and federal
equal employment opportunity laws and with other laws related to employment.

system of internal accounting controls sufficient, in the judgment of the
Company's board of directors, to provide reasonable assurance that (i)
transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific
authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to
assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific
authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with
the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with
respect to any differences.

properties, prospects, or financial condition of the Company. The Company is not
in default in any material respect under any of such franchises, permits,

to which such Purchaser is a party.

distribution of any part thereof, and the Purchaser has no present intention of
selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By
executing this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser
does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with

unless it is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and
qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the
Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Note, or the Conversion
Shares, for resale except as provided in any of the Transaction Documents. The
Purchaser further acknowledges that if an
7
exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned
on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of
sale and the holding period for the Note and the Conversion Shares, and on
requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser's
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to
satisfy.

public market now exists for the Note, and that the Company has made no
