2. Subscriber Representations and Covenants; Access to Information;

COMPANY as follows:
i. PURCHASER was at the time of the offer and is not a U.S. Person as that
term is defined under Regulation S.
ii. PURCHASER was at the time of the offer and is outside the United States
as of the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
iii. PURCHASER is purchasing the Debentures for its own account and not on
behalf of any U.S. Person, and PURCHASER is the sole beneficial owner of the
Debentures, and has not pre-arranged any sale with any purchaser or
purchasers in the United States.
iv. PURCHASER represents and warrants and hereby agrees that all offers and
sales of the Debentures prior to the expiration of a period commencing on
the date of the receipt of funds by the COMPANY and ending 40 days
thereafter (the "Restricted Period") shall only be made in compliance with
the safe harbor contained in Regulation S, pursuant to the registration
provisions under the 1933 Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration,
and all offers and sales after the expiration of the 40-day period shall be
made only pursuant to such registration or to an exemption from
registration.
v. PURCHASER acknowledges that the purchase of the Debentures involves a
high degree of risk, is aware of the risks and further acknowledges that it
can bear the economic risk of the purchase of the Debentures, including the
total loss of its investment.
vi. PURCHASER understands that the Debentures are being offered and sold to
it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of
U.S. securities laws and that the COMPANY is relying upon the truth and

understandings of PURCHASER set forth herein in order to determine the
applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of PURCHASER to acquire
the Debentures, and the Shares issuable upon conversion thereof. PURCHASER

matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investments,

ix. PURCHASER understands that in view of the SEC the statutory basis for
the exemption claimed for this transaction would not be present if the
offering of Debentures, and the Shares issuable upon conversion thereof,
although in technical compliance with Regulation S, is part of a plan or
scheme to evade the registration provisions of the 1933 Act. PURCHASER is
acquiring the Debentures for investment purposes and has no present

commit or agree to sell or pledge any shares of Common Stock of the COMPANY
or any other securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common
Stock of the COMPANY.
PURCHASER has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any
person for brokerage commission, finders' fees or the like relating to this
Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby.

representatives or other information (whether oral or written) other than as
set forth in the SEC Filings or in Annex V.
c. Independent Investigation; Access. PURCHASER acknowledges that
PURCHASER, in making the decision to purchase the Debentures subscribed for,

examine all material publicly available, books and records of the COMPANY,
all material contracts and documents relating to this offering and an
opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive answers from the COMPANY or
any person acting on its behalf concerning the terms and conditions of this
offering. PURCHASER and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with
access to all publicly available materials relating to the business,
finances and operation of the COMPANY and materials relating to the offer
and sale of the Debentures which have been requested. PURCHASER and its
advisors, if any, have received complete and satisfactory answers to any
such inquiries.

g. Binding Commitment. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the PURCHASER. The PURCHASER has full power, right
and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement. The execution and
delivery and performance of this Agreement will not violate or be in
conflict with any order, judgment, injunction, agreement or controlling
document to which the PURCHASER is a party or by which it is bound. If the
PURCHASER is an entity, it was not formed for the specific purpose of
acquiring the Debenture.

the COMPANY, any identifiable groups of U.S. citizens abroad or any U.S.
person as that term is defined in Regulation S. At the time the offer was
made and the buy order for the Debentures was originated, the COMPANY and/or
its agents reasonably believed PURCHASER was outside the United States and
was not a U.S. Person.
c. No Directed Selling Efforts. In regard to this transaction, the COMPANY

Rule 902 of Regulation S nor has the COMPANY conducted any general
solicitation relating to the offer and sale of the within securities to
persons resident with the United States or elsewhere.

accordance with the terms of Annex I attached hereto.
e. Legality. The COMPANY has the requisite corporate power and authority
to enter into this Agreement and to sell and deliver the Debentures; this

authorized by all necessary corporate action by the COMPANY; this Agreement
has been duly and validly executed and delivered by and on behalf of the
COMPANY, and is a valid and binding agreement of the COMPANY, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be
limited by general equitable principles, bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors
rights generally.
f. Non-Contravention. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
consummation of the issuance of the Debentures, other than the conversion
provision thereof, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the Debentures do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach by
the COMPANY of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default
under, the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the COMPANY, or any
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other material agreement or
instrument to which the COMPANY is a party or by which it or any of its
properties or assets are bound, or any existing applicable law, rule or
regulation of the United States of any State thereof or any applicable
decree, judgment or order of any Federal or State court, Federal or State
regulatory body, administrative agency or other United States governmental
body having jurisdiction over the COMPANY or any of its properties or
assets.
g. Filings. The COMPANY undertakes and agrees to make all necessary
filings in connection with the sale of the Debentures as required by United
States laws and regulations or any domestic securities exchange or trading
market.
h. Absence of Certain Changes. Since September 30, 1996, there has been no
material adverse development in the assets, liabilities, business,
properties, operations, financial condition or results of operations of the
COMPANY, except as disclosed in the SEC Filings or in Annex V.
i. The COMPANY has legally available sufficient authorized and unissued
Shares as may be reasonably necessary to effect the conversion of the
Debentures.
j. Litigation. There is no action, suit or preceding before or by any
court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, now pending or,
to the knowledge of the COMPANY, threatened against or affecting the
COMPANY, or any of its properties, which might result in any material
adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) or in the earnings,
business affairs or business prospects of the COMPANY, or which might
materially and adversely affect the properties or assets thereof.
k. No Default. Except as set forth in Annex V, the COMPANY is not in
default in the performance or observance of any material obligation,
agreement, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed
of trust or other material instrument or agreement to which it is a party or
by which it or its property may be bound, and neither the execution, nor the
delivery by the COMPANY, nor the performance by the COMPANY of its
obligations under this Agreement or the Debentures, other than the
conversion provision thereof, will conflict with or result in the breach or
violation of any of the terms or provision of, or constitute an default or
result in the creation or composition of any lien or charge on any assets or
properties of the COMPANY under any material indenture, mortgage, deed of
trust or other material agreement or instrument to which the COMPANY is a
party or by which it is bound or any statute or the Certificate of
Incorporation or By-Laws of the COMPANY, or any decree, judgment, order,
rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having
jurisdiction over the COMPANY or its properties.
l. SEC Filings. None of the SEC Filings with the Securities and Exchange

since before June 1, 1996, timely filed all requisite forms, reports and
exhibits thereto with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
m. Full Disclosure. There is no fact known to the COMPANY (other than
general economic conditions known to the public generally) that has not been
disclosed in writing to the PURCHASER that (i) could reasonably be expected
to have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise)
or in the earnings, business affairs, business prospects, properties or
assets of the COMPANY or (ii) could reasonably be expected to materially and
adversely affect the ability of the COMPANY to perform its obligations
pursuant to this Agreement.
n. Prior Issues. During the twelve (12) months preceding the date hereof,
the Company has not issued any securities pursuant to Regulation S or
Regulation D under the Act, except as set forth in Exhibit 3(n). The
presently outstanding principal amount of each such issuance, if any, is
set forth in ANNEX V.
o. Use of Proceeds. The COMPANY will use the proceeds from the sale of the
Debenture (excluding amounts paid by the COMPANY for legal fees and finders'
fees in connection with the sale of the Debenture) as more fully set forth
in ANNEX V.
4. Transfer Agent Instructions.
a. Debentures. The COMPANY shall act as Debenture Registrar and shall
maintain an appropriate ledge containing the necessary information with
respect to each Debenture.
b. Subject to the completeness and accuracy of the PURCHASER's
representations and warranties herein, upon the conversion of any Debenture
by a person who is a non-U.S. Person, the COMPANY shall, at its 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
without restrictive legend or stop orders in the name of PURCHASER (or its
nominee [being a non-U.S. Person] or such non-U.S. Persons as may be
designated by PURCHASER) and in such denominations to be specified at
conversion representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such conversion, as applicable. The COMPANY warrants that no instructions
other than these instructions, instructions to impose a "stop transfer"
instruction with respect to the Debenture until the end of the Restricted
Period have been or will be given to the transfer agent and that the Shares
will not be subject to any transfer limitations other than those imposed by
applicable securities law. Nothing in this Section 4, however, shall affect
in any way PURCHASER's or such nominee's obligations and agreement to comply
with all applicable securities laws upon resale of the Securities.
c. It will permit the PURCHASER to exercise its right to convert the
Debentures by telecopying an executed and completed Notice of Conversion to
the COMPANY and delivering within three business days thereafter, the
original Notice of Conversion and the Debenture representing the Shares to
the COMPANY by express courier. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion
is telecopied to and received by the COMPANY in accordance with the
provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date. Within three (3)
business days after receipt by the COMPANY of the original Notice of
Conversion and the Debenture representing the Shares to be converted (the
"Notice Date"), the COMPANY will instruct its transfer agent to issue, on
an expedited basis, the certificates representing the Shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of any Debentures and transmit the certificates
(together with the Debenture representing the Shares not so converted) to
the PURCHASER via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise.
d. The Company understands that a delay in notifying the transfer agent to
issue the Shares of Common Stock beyond the Notice Date could result in
economic loss to the PURCHASER. As compensation to the PURCHASER for such
loss, the Company agrees, in the event the Company interferes with or
obstructs, by means of unsupportable objections, threats or otherwise, the
transfer agent's issuance and delivery of the certificates, or raises
unsupportable objections to the issuance and delivery or otherwise causes a
delay in issuance and delivery without justifiable cause, to pay late
payments to the PURCHASER for late notice upon Conversion in accordance with
the following schedule (where "No. Business Days Late" is defined as the
number of business days beyond five (5) business days from the Notice Date:
Late Payment For Each
$10,000 of Debenture Principal
No. Business Days Late Amount Being Converted
1 $50
2 $100
3 $150
4 $200
5 $250
6 $300
7 $350
8 $400
9 $450
10 $500
more than 10 $550
plus $100 for each Business
Day Late beyond 10 days
The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in
immediately available funds upon demand. Nothing herein shall limit
PURCHASER's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to
issue and deliver Common Stock to the PURCHASER, in the event that the
Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of such shares of Common
Stock within five (5) business days after the Delivery Date, the PURCHASER
will be entitled to revoke the relevant Notice of Conversion by delivering a
notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the PURCHASER
shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to
delivery of such Notice of Conversion.
5. Exemption; Reliance on Representation.
a. PURCHASER understands that the offer and sale of the Debentures, and the
Shares issuable upon conversion thereof, is not being registered under the
1933 Act. The COMPANY is relying on the rules of governing offers and sales
made outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S Rules 901 through
904 of Regulation S govern this transaction.
b. Notwithstanding the provisions hereof, in no event (except with respect
to an Event of Mandatory Conversion upon the maturity of the Debenture)
shall the holder be entitled to convert any Debenture in excess of the
number of shares upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the PURCHASER and its
affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed
beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the
Debenture) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of the Debenture with respect to which the determination of this
proviso is being made would result in beneficial ownership by the PURCHASER
and its affiliates of more than 4.9% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence,
beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13 D-G
thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such provision.
6. Closing Date and Escrow Agent. The date of the issuance of the
Debentures and the sale of the Debentures as evidenced by receipt of the
COMPANY from the Escrow Agent of Purchaser's purchase funds (the "Closing
Date") shall be no later than two (2) business days after execution hereof
by all parties or such other mutually agreed to time. PURCHASER shall
within three (3) business days after acceptance and execution of this
Agreement by the COMPANY, deliver the necessary funds as indicated in
Paragraph 1 to the Escrow Agent. Debentures will be delivered to the Escrow
Agent at the instructions of the COMPANY. PURCHASER agrees that the Escrow
Agent has no liability as a result of any fraudulent or unlawful conduct of
any other party, and agrees to hold the Escrow Agent harmless.
7. Conditions to the COMPANY's Obligation to Sell. PURCHASER understands
that the COMPANY's obligation to sell the Debentures is conditioned upon:
a. Acceptance by PURCHASER of an Agreement for the sale
of Debentures;
b. Delivery to the Escrow Agent by each PURCHASER of
immediately available funds in United States Dollars
as payment in full for the purchase of the Debentures; and
c. The accuracy on the Closing Date of the representations
and warranties of PURCHASER contained in this Agreement
and the performance by PURCHASER on or before the Closing
Date of all covenants and agreements of PURCHASER required
to be performed on or before the Closing Date.
d. There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation
prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated
hereby, or requiring any consent or approval which shall
not have been obtained.
8. Conditions to PURCHASER's Obligation to Purchase. The COMPANY
understands that PURCHASER's obligation to purchase the Debentures is
conditioned upon:
a. The receipt and acceptance by the COMPANY of this Agreement
as evidenced by execution of this Agreement by the President
or any Vice President of the COMPANY. The acceptance of funds
by the COMPANY shall be deemed to be construction acceptance of
this Agreement;
b. Delivery of Debentures to Escrow Agent as herein set forth;
c. The accuracy on the Closing Date of the representations and
warranties of the COMPANY contained in this Agreement and the
performance by the COMPANY on or before the Closing Date of all
covenants and agreements of the COMPANY required to be performed
on or before the Closing Date; and
d. Delivery to the Escrow Agent of an opinion of counsel for the
COMPANY, dated the Closing Date and addressed to PURCHASER, in
the form attached hereto as Annex II.
e. Delivery to the Escrow Agent of the Irrevocable Instructions
to Transfer Agent in the form attached hereto as Annex IV.
9. Registration of the Securities. After the expiration of the Restricted
Period, if the COMPANY fails to issue to the PURCHASER or the PURCHASER's
transferees certificates for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the Debentures bearing no restrictive legend and free of stop transfer
instructions for any reason other than the COMPANY's reasonable good faith
belief that the representations and warranties made by the PURCHASER in this
Agreement were untrue when made, then the COMPANY shall be required, at the
request of the PURCHASER and at the COMPANY's expense, to effect the
registration of such shares of Common Stock under the act, and relevant Blue
Sky laws as promptly as is practicable. The COMPANY and the PURCHASER shall
cooperate in good faith in connection with the furnishing of information
required for such registration and the taking of such other actions as may
be legally or commercially necessary in order to effect such registration.
The COMPANY shall file a registration statement within thirty (30) days of
PURCHASER's written demand therefor and shall use its best efforts to cause
such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable
thereafter. Such best efforts shall include, but not be limited to,
promptly responding to all comments received from the staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to such registration
statement and promptly preparing and filing amendments to such registration
statement which are responsive to the comments received from the staff of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Once declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the COMPANY shall cause such
registration statement to remain effective until the earlier of (I) the sale
by the PURCHASER of all shares of Common Stock so registered or (ii) 120
days after the effective date of such registration statement. In the event
that the COMPANY has not effected the registration of such shares of Common
Stock under the Act and relevant Blue Sky laws within 120 days after the
date of the PURCHASER's demand therefor, the COMPANY shall pay to the
PURCHASER by wire transfer, as liquidated damages for such failure and not
as a penalty, an amount in cash equal to $100,000. Such payment shall be
made to the PURCHASER immediately upon expiration of the 120-day period
referenced in the preceding sentence if the registration of such shares of
Common Stock is not effected by such date; provided, however, that the
payment of such liquidated damages shall not relieve the COMPANY from its
obligations to register such shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section
10. Certain Agreements. The COMPANY covenants and agrees that it will not
enter into any subsequent or further offer of sale of common stock or
securities convertible into common stock with any third party within a
period of three hundred sixty (360) days from the Closing Date, without
first offering the PURCHASER the opportunity to (which shall remain open for
a period of five business days from the date the PURCHASER receives notice
thereof) to purchase all such additional securities (in the discretion of
the PURCHASER) on the terms and provisions on which the Company proposes to
offer such additional securities to such third party. In the event that the
PURCHASER declines to participate in any such investment, the Company shall
provide the PURCHASER with prompt written notice of the consummating of any
such transaction with a third party, specifying the material terms thereof.
However, this Section 10 will not apply to (x) the issuance of securities
(other than for cash) in connection with a merger, consolidation, sale of
assets, disposition of a business, produce or license by the Company,
strategic alliance, bank loan or agreement, public offering, securities
issued at the then current market price (as determined in good faith by the
Board of Directors), or the exercise of options, or (y) the exchange of the
capital stock of the Company for assets, stock or other joint venture
interests. This Section 10 may be waived by the holders of two-thirds of
the outstanding principal amount of the Debentures (whether or not the
PURCHASER shall consent thereto).
11. Governing Law; Arbitration. This Agreement will be construed and
enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Canada,
except for matters arising under the Act, without reference to principles of
conflicts of law. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to
this Agreement (whether in contract or tort, or both) shall be determined by
binding arbitration at Toronto, Canada, in accordance with the commercial
arbitration rules of the International Chamber of Commerce. The prevailing
party in any arbitration proceeding shall be awarded reasonable attorneys
fees and costs of the proceeding. The arbitration award shall be final, and
may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
