of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Issuer or any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust or other material agreement or instrument to
which the Issuer is a party or by which it or any of its property or
assets are bound or any existing applicable law, rule or regulation
or any applicable decree, judgment or order of any court, federal or
state regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental
body having jurisdiction over the Issuer or any of its properties or
assets.
d) There are no facts or circumstances existing, and there has been no

4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares, it shall
immediately comply with all SEC filing and notification
requirements;

The Issuer agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, of one-half of one percent, which may be incurred by
the Purchaser in collecting any amount due or exercising the conversion
and/or exercise rights under these Securities.
6. Registration Rights: Liquidated Damages.
The Purchaser will be entitled to registration rights in respect of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and
exercise of the Warrants (the terms of which are set forth below) as
follows: (1) The Issuer shall prepare and file, within 30 days of the
initial Closing Date, an amendment to its registration statement under
the Act on Form SB-2 (the "Registration Statement"), filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on December 6,
1996, covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Debentures. The Issuer shall use its best efforts to
cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the
Commission no later than 120 days following the initial Closing Date and
shall promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of all amendments to such
Registration Statement and correspondence with the Commission with
respect thereto. The Issuer shall maintain the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement until all of the Common Stock issuable or issued
upon conversion or exercise of the Securities has been sold. The Issuer
shall pay all expenses of registration (other than underwriting fees and
discounts in respect of shares of Common Stock offered and sold under
such Registration Statement by the Purchaser, if any). (2) If the
Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission
during the 120-day period mentioned above, the Company shall pay in cash
or free trading common stock valued at Market Price, as hereinafter
defined, to the Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
an amount equal to two percent (2%) per month commencing 90 and ending
120 days after the initial Closing of the outstanding principal amount
of the Debentures, in the event that the Registration Statement is not
declared effective by the Commission within 90 days of the initial
Closing Date and three percent (3%) from 120 days after the Closing
Date until the Registration Statement is declared effective.
7. Transfer Agent Instructions, Book-Entry System, Liquidated Damages.
Each conversion of the Debentures and/or exercise of the Warrants will
be effected through a "book-entry" mechanism. Pursuant to this
book-entry mechanism, (1) immediately following each Closing, the Escrow
Agent will wire payment of the net offering proceeds to the Issuer and
the Issuer will instruct the Issuer's transfer agent to register the
Debentures in the name of the Purchaser on a Debenture Register to be
maintained by such transfer agent for the benefit of the Issuer and the
Purchaser; (2) the transfer agent will establish a set of book-entry
procedures to record transfers and conversions of the Debentures; and
(3) the Issuer will irrevocably instruct the transfer agent to issue
shares of Common Stock, bearing such legend as may be required by law,
to the Purchaser upon the valid exercise of the conversion privilege and
the fulfillment of other requirements of the transfer agent, including
but not limited to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and
the delivery of an
7
8
opinion of the Company's counsel (which the Company shall promptly
supply) as to the issuance of such shares of Common Stock. If the
Company willfully fails to deliver shares of Common Stock without
restrictive legends or stop-transfer orders within four (4) New York
Stock Exchange Trading Days of delivery or a notice of conversion
following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or fails to
deliver legend certificates if requested prior thereto, liquidated
damages will accrue in an amount equal to $1,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered up to 10 days, and $2,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered in excess of 10 days. Such amounts will accrue
and be payable to the Purchaser by the Issuer upon demand notices of
conversion shall be submitted by facsimile transmission and shall be
deemed to have been received on the date transmitted.
8. Indemnification.
Each of the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees to indemnify and to hold
the other harmless from and against any and all losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses which the other may sustain or incur
in connection with the breach by the indemnifying party of any
representation, warranty or covenant made in this Agreement. Each of
the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees that the Escrow Agent shall be
relieved of any liability arising out of acting as escrow agent and
each also hereby agrees to indemnify the Escrow Agent against expenses
including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement incurred by the Escrow Agent as a result of any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding of every nature by
reason of the fact that it served as escrow agent.
9. Notices.
All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for
herein (collectively "Notices") shall be in writing. All Notices shall
be sent by hand delivery, U.S. mail with return receipt requested,
overnight courier, or facsimile with all delivery charges prepaid.
All notices will be effective when received by the addressee as
indicated by the return receipt, the receipt of the courier service, or

applicable to the Debenture being purchased at Closing. The number of
Warrants issued will be 5,000 warrants per $100,000 principal amount of
the Debentures.
12. Conditions to the Issuer's Obligation to Sell.
Issuer shall have the right to reject any subsequent Agreement which is
tendered to the Issuer hereunder for any securities offered after the
initial purchase of $1,700,000 of the Debentures. Any tender for the
initial $1,700,000 of the Debentures may only be rejected if the Issuer
reasonably believes any representations and warranties of such Purchaser
contained herein to be untrue, and in such event Issuer shall promptly
provide Purchaser written notice of such rejection and the reason
therefor and shall provide reasonable opportunity for a response to such
stated reason. Purchaser understands that Issuer's obligation to sell
the Securities is conditioned upon:
(i) The receipt and acceptance by Issuer of this Agreement for all of
the Securities evidenced by execution of this Agreement by the
Issuer or Issuer's duly authorized agent. In the absence of a
written acknowledgement of this Agreement by the Issuer, the
delivery of Securities to the designated Escrow Agent and/or the
transfer of funds to the Issuer shall be deemed to be
constructive acceptance of this Agreement.

under, appropriate documentation (including but not limited to an
executed Agreement, form of debenture, warrants, and book-entry transfer
agreement), all in form and substance mutually acceptable to the parties
and containing representations, warranties and agreements customary for

The Issuer agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, of one-half of one percent, which may be incurred by
the Purchaser in collecting any amount due or exercising the conversion
and/or exercise rights under these Securities.
6. Registration Rights: Liquidated Damages.
The Purchaser will be entitled to registration rights in respect of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and
exercise of the Warrants (the terms of which are set forth below) as
follows: (1) The Issuer shall prepare and file, within 30 days of the
initial Closing Date, an amendment to its registration statement under
the Act on Form SB-2 (the "Registration Statement"), filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on December 6,
1996, covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Debentures. The Issuer shall use its best efforts to
cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the
Commission no later than 120 days following the initial Closing Date and
shall promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of all amendments to such
Registration Statement and correspondence with the Commission with
respect thereto. The Issuer shall maintain the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement until all of the Common Stock issuable or issued
upon conversion or exercise of the Securities has been sold. The Issuer
shall pay all expenses of registration (other than underwriting fees and
discounts in respect of shares of Common Stock offered and sold under
such Registration Statement by the Purchaser, if any). (2) If the
Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission
during the 120-day period mentioned above, the Company shall pay in cash
or free trading common stock valued at Market Price, as hereinafter
defined, to the Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
an amount equal to two percent (2%) per month commencing 90 and ending
120 days after the initial Closing of the outstanding principal amount
of the Debentures, in the event that the Registration Statement is not
declared effective by the Commission within 90 days of the initial
Closing Date and three percent (3%) from 120 days after the Closing
Date until the Registration Statement is declared effective.
7. Transfer Agent Instructions, Book-Entry System, Liquidated Damages.
Each conversion of the Debentures and/or exercise of the Warrants will
be effected through a "book-entry" mechanism. Pursuant to this
book-entry mechanism, (1) immediately following each Closing, the Escrow
Agent will wire payment of the net offering proceeds to the Issuer and
the Issuer will instruct the Issuer's transfer agent to register the
Debentures in the name of the Purchaser on a Debenture Register to be
maintained by such transfer agent for the benefit of the Issuer and the
Purchaser; (2) the transfer agent will establish a set of book-entry
procedures to record transfers and conversions of the Debentures; and
(3) the Issuer will irrevocably instruct the transfer agent to issue
shares of Common Stock, bearing such legend as may be required by law,
to the Purchaser upon the valid exercise of the conversion privilege and
the fulfillment of other requirements of the transfer agent, including
but not limited to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and
the delivery of an
7
20
opinion of the Company's counsel (which the Company shall promptly
supply) as to the issuance of such shares of Common Stock. If the
Company willfully fails to deliver shares of Common Stock without
restrictive legends or stop-transfer orders within four (4) New York
Stock Exchange Trading Days of delivery or a notice of conversion
following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or fails to
deliver legend certificates if requested prior thereto, liquidated
damages will accrue in an amount equal to $1,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered up to 10 days, and $2,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered in excess of 10 days. Such amounts will accrue
and be payable to the Purchaser by the Issuer upon demand notices of
conversion shall be submitted by facsimile transmission and shall be
deemed to have been received on the date transmitted.
8. Indemnification.
Each of the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees to indemnify and to hold
the other harmless from and against any and all losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses which the other may sustain or incur
in connection with the breach by the indemnifying party of any
representation, warranty or covenant made in this Agreement. Each of
the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees that the Escrow Agent shall be
relieved of any liability arising out of acting as escrow agent and
each also hereby agrees to indemnify the Escrow Agent against expenses
including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement incurred by the Escrow Agent as a result of any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding of every nature by
reason of the fact that it served as escrow agent.
9. Notices.
All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for
herein (collectively "Notices") shall be in writing. All Notices shall
be sent by hand delivery, U.S. mail with return receipt requested,
overnight courier, or facsimile with all delivery charges prepaid.

tendered to the Issuer hereunder for any securities offered after the
initial purchase of $1,700,000 of the Debentures. Any tender for the
initial $1,700,000 of the Debentures may only be rejected if the Issuer
reasonably believes any representations and warranties of such Purchaser
contained herein to be untrue, and in such event Issuer shall promptly
provide Purchaser written notice of such rejection and the reason
therefor and shall provide reasonable opportunity for a response to such
stated reason. Purchaser understands that Issuer's obligation to sell

Issuer or Issuer's duly authorized agent. In the absence of a

under, appropriate documentation (including but not limited to an
executed Agreement, form of debenture, warrants, and book-entry transfer

and containing representations, warranties and agreements customary for

Issuer, this Agreement will have been duly authorized by all
necessary actions of the directors and (if necessary) the
shareholders of Issuer, validly executed and delivered on behalf of
the Issuer and be a legally binding obligation of the Issuer,
enforceable in accordance with its terms.

issuable upon conversion and/or exercise thereof of such Securities,
and the transaction contemplated by this Agreement do not and will
not conflict with or result in a breach by the Issuer of any of the

issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer
following such conversion and/or exercise thereof, minus (ii)
the number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer then held by
the Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, in the event the Purchaser's stock holdings exceed
4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares, it shall
immediately comply with all SEC filing and notification
requirements;
f) Neither the SEC Filings nor the Registration Statement (as

31
The Issuer agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, of one-half of one percent, which may be incurred by
the Purchaser in collecting any amount due or exercising the conversion
and/or exercise rights under these Securities.
6. Registration Rights: Liquidated Damages.
The Purchaser will be entitled to registration rights in respect of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and
exercise of the Warrants (the terms of which are set forth below) as
follows: (1) The Issuer shall prepare and file, within 30 days of the
initial Closing Date, an amendment to its registration statement under
the Act on Form SB-2 (the "Registration Statement"), filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on December 6,
1996, covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Debentures. The Issuer shall use its best efforts to
cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the
Commission no later than 120 days following the initial Closing Date and
shall promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of all amendments to such
Registration Statement and correspondence with the Commission with
respect thereto. The Issuer shall maintain the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement until all of the Common Stock issuable or issued
upon conversion or exercise of the Securities has been sold. The Issuer
shall pay all expenses of registration (other than underwriting fees and
discounts in respect of shares of Common Stock offered and sold under
such Registration Statement by the Purchaser, if any). (2) If the
Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission
during the 120-day period mentioned above, the Company shall pay in cash
or free trading common stock valued at Market Price, as hereinafter
defined, to the Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
an amount equal to two percent (2%) per month commencing 90 and ending
120 days after the initial Closing of the outstanding principal amount
of the Debentures, in the event that the Registration Statement is not
declared effective by the Commission within 90 days of the initial
Closing Date and three percent (3%) from 120 days after the Closing
Date until the Registration Statement is declared effective.
7. Transfer Agent Instructions, Book-Entry System, Liquidated Damages.
Each conversion of the Debentures and/or exercise of the Warrants will
be effected through a "book-entry" mechanism. Pursuant to this
book-entry mechanism, (1) immediately following each Closing, the Escrow
Agent will wire payment of the net offering proceeds to the Issuer and
the Issuer will instruct the Issuer's transfer agent to register the
Debentures in the name of the Purchaser on a Debenture Register to be
maintained by such transfer agent for the benefit of the Issuer and the
Purchaser; (2) the transfer agent will establish a set of book-entry
procedures to record transfers and conversions of the Debentures; and
(3) the Issuer will irrevocably instruct the transfer agent to issue
shares of Common Stock, bearing such legend as may be required by law,
to the Purchaser upon the valid exercise of the conversion privilege and
the fulfillment of other requirements of the transfer agent, including
but not limited to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and
the delivery of an
7
32
opinion of the Company's counsel (which the Company shall promptly
supply) as to the issuance of such shares of Common Stock. If the
Company willfully fails to deliver shares of Common Stock without
restrictive legends or stop-transfer orders within four (4) New York
Stock Exchange Trading Days of delivery or a notice of conversion
following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or fails to
deliver legend certificates if requested prior thereto, liquidated
damages will accrue in an amount equal to $1,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered up to 10 days, and $2,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered in excess of 10 days. Such amounts will accrue
and be payable to the Purchaser by the Issuer upon demand notices of
conversion shall be submitted by facsimile transmission and shall be
deemed to have been received on the date transmitted.
8. Indemnification.
Each of the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees to indemnify and to hold
the other harmless from and against any and all losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses which the other may sustain or incur
in connection with the breach by the indemnifying party of any
representation, warranty or covenant made in this Agreement. Each of
the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees that the Escrow Agent shall be
relieved of any liability arising out of acting as escrow agent and
each also hereby agrees to indemnify the Escrow Agent against expenses
including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement incurred by the Escrow Agent as a result of any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding of every nature by
reason of the fact that it served as escrow agent.
9. Notices.
All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for
herein (collectively "Notices") shall be in writing. All Notices shall
be sent by hand delivery, U.S. mail with return receipt requested,
overnight courier, or facsimile with all delivery charges prepaid.
All notices will be effective when received by the addressee as
indicated by the return receipt, the receipt of the courier service, or
on the facsimile. All notices to the Purchaser and/or the Issuer shall
be delivered to the Escrow Agent (who may also act as counsel to

respect thereto) an origination fee of ten percent (10%) of the gross
proceeds of the closing. Issuer will issue Warrants having a five (5)
year term and having an Exercise Price set at the Conversion Price
applicable to the Debenture being purchased at Closing. The number of
Warrants issued will be 5,000 warrants per $100,000 principal amount of
the Debentures.
12. Conditions to the Issuer's Obligation to Sell.
Issuer shall have the right to reject any subsequent Agreement which is
tendered to the Issuer hereunder for any securities offered after the
initial purchase of $1,700,000 of the Debentures. Any tender for the
initial $1,700,000 of the Debentures may only be rejected if the Issuer
reasonably believes any representations and warranties of such Purchaser
contained herein to be untrue, and in such event Issuer shall promptly
provide Purchaser written notice of such rejection and the reason
therefor and shall provide reasonable opportunity for a response to such
stated reason. Purchaser understands that Issuer's obligation to sell
the Securities is conditioned upon:
(i) The receipt and acceptance by Issuer of this Agreement for all of
the Securities evidenced by execution of this Agreement by the
Issuer or Issuer's duly authorized agent. In the absence of a
written acknowledgement of this Agreement by the Issuer, the
delivery of Securities to the designated Escrow Agent and/or the
transfer of funds to the Issuer shall be deemed to be
constructive acceptance of this Agreement.

the Issuer's compliance with necessary corporate and statutory
formalities as Purchaser shall reasonably require. Each Closing is
conditioned upon (a) the execution and delivery of, and performance
under, appropriate documentation (including but not limited to an
executed Agreement, form of debenture, warrants, and book-entry transfer
agreement), all in form and substance mutually acceptable to the parties
and containing representations, warranties and agreements customary for
transactions of this type; (b) the truth and accuracy of each of the
representations and warranties contained herein, both when made and as

The Issuer agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, of one-half of one percent, which may be incurred by
the Purchaser in collecting any amount due or exercising the conversion
and/or exercise rights under these Securities.
6. Registration Rights: Liquidated Damages.
The Purchaser will be entitled to registration rights in respect of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and
exercise of the Warrants (the terms of which are set forth below) as
follows: (1) The Issuer shall prepare and file, within 30 days of the
initial Closing Date, an amendment to its registration statement under
the Act on Form SB-2 (the "Registration Statement"), filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on December 6,
1996, covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Debentures. The Issuer shall use its best efforts to
cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the
Commission no later than 120 days following the initial Closing Date and
shall promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of all amendments to such
Registration Statement and correspondence with the Commission with
respect thereto. The Issuer shall maintain the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement until all of the Common Stock issuable or issued
upon conversion or exercise of the Securities has been sold. The Issuer
shall pay all expenses of registration (other than underwriting fees and
discounts in respect of shares of Common Stock offered and sold under
such Registration Statement by the Purchaser, if any). (2) If the
Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission
during the 120-day period mentioned above, the Company shall pay in cash
or free trading common stock valued at Market Price, as hereinafter
defined, to the Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
an amount equal to two percent (2%) per month commencing 90 and ending
120 days after the initial Closing of the outstanding principal amount
of the Debentures, in the event that the Registration Statement is not
declared effective by the Commission within 90 days of the initial
Closing Date and three percent (3%) from 120 days after the Closing
Date until the Registration Statement is declared effective.
7. Transfer Agent Instructions, Book-Entry System, Liquidated Damages.
Each conversion of the Debentures and/or exercise of the Warrants will
be effected through a "book-entry" mechanism. Pursuant to this
book-entry mechanism, (1) immediately following each Closing, the Escrow
Agent will wire payment of the net offering proceeds to the Issuer and
the Issuer will instruct the Issuer's transfer agent to register the
Debentures in the name of the Purchaser on a Debenture Register to be
maintained by such transfer agent for the benefit of the Issuer and the
Purchaser; (2) the transfer agent will establish a set of book-entry
procedures to record transfers and conversions of the Debentures; and
(3) the Issuer will irrevocably instruct the transfer agent to issue
shares of Common Stock, bearing such legend as may be required by law,
to the Purchaser upon the valid exercise of the conversion privilege and
the fulfillment of other requirements of the transfer agent, including
but not limited to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and
the delivery of an
7
44
opinion of the Company's counsel (which the Company shall promptly
supply) as to the issuance of such shares of Common Stock. If the
Company willfully fails to deliver shares of Common Stock without
restrictive legends or stop-transfer orders within four (4) New York
Stock Exchange Trading Days of delivery or a notice of conversion
following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or fails to
deliver legend certificates if requested prior thereto, liquidated
damages will accrue in an amount equal to $1,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered up to 10 days, and $2,000.00 for each
$100,000.00 principal amount of Debentures as to which conversion has
been requested then outstanding for each day that such shares of Common
Stock are not delivered in excess of 10 days. Such amounts will accrue
and be payable to the Purchaser by the Issuer upon demand notices of
conversion shall be submitted by facsimile transmission and shall be
deemed to have been received on the date transmitted.
8. Indemnification.
Each of the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees to indemnify and to hold
the other harmless from and against any and all losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses which the other may sustain or incur
in connection with the breach by the indemnifying party of any
representation, warranty or covenant made in this Agreement. Each of
the Issuer and the Purchaser agrees that the Escrow Agent shall be
relieved of any liability arising out of acting as escrow agent and
each also hereby agrees to indemnify the Escrow Agent against expenses
including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement incurred by the Escrow Agent as a result of any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding of every nature by
reason of the fact that it served as escrow agent.
9. Notices.
All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for
herein (collectively "Notices") shall be in writing. All Notices shall
be sent by hand delivery, U.S. mail with return receipt requested,
overnight courier, or facsimile with all delivery charges prepaid.
All notices will be effective when received by the addressee as

applicable to the Debenture being purchased at Closing. The number of
Warrants issued will be 5,000 warrants per $100,000 principal amount of

tendered to the Issuer hereunder for any securities offered after the
initial purchase of $1,700,000 of the Debentures. Any tender for the
initial $1,700,000 of the Debentures may only be rejected if the Issuer
reasonably believes any representations and warranties of such Purchaser
contained herein to be untrue, and in such event Issuer shall promptly
provide Purchaser written notice of such rejection and the reason
therefor and shall provide reasonable opportunity for a response to such
stated reason. Purchaser understands that Issuer's obligation to sell
the Securities is conditioned upon:
(i) The receipt and acceptance by Issuer of this Agreement for all of
the Securities evidenced by execution of this Agreement by the
Issuer or Issuer's duly authorized agent. In the absence of a
written acknowledgement of this Agreement by the Issuer, the
delivery of Securities to the designated Escrow Agent and/or the
transfer of funds to the Issuer shall be deemed to be
constructive acceptance of this Agreement.
(ii) Delivery to the Escrow Agent by Purchaser of good funds as payment
in full of the Purchase Price of the securities subscribed for and
all fees and commission hereunder.

herein; and (iii) such documents, certificates and other evidence of
the Issuer's compliance with necessary corporate and statutory
formalities as Purchaser shall reasonably require. Each Closing is
conditioned upon (a) the execution and delivery of, and performance
under, appropriate documentation (including but not limited to an
executed Agreement, form of debenture, warrants, and book-entry transfer
agreement), all in form and substance mutually acceptable to the parties
and containing representations, warranties and agreements customary for
transactions of this type; (b) the truth and accuracy of each of the
representations and warranties contained herein, both when made and as
