and not for resale or with a view to distribution thereof in violation of the
Securities Act.
4.3 PURCHASER STATUS; ETC. Purchaser certifies and represents to
the Company that at the time Purchaser acquires any of the Securities, Purchaser
will be an institutional Purchaser that is an "Accredited Investor" as defined
in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and was not

4.4 SECURITIES NOT REGISTERED.
(a) Purchaser understands that the Securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act, by reason of their issuance by the Company
in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act, and that the Securities must continue to be held by Purchaser and not
re-offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless a subsequent
disposition thereof is registered under the Securities Act or is exempt from
such registration and any such transfer is otherwise made in accordance with
applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. The Purchaser
understands that the exemptions from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the
provisions of which are known to it) promulgated under the Securities Act depend
on the satisfaction of various conditions, and that, if applicable, Rule 144 may
afford the basis for sales only in limited amounts. The Purchaser understands

the availability of Rule 144 or any other exemption under the Securities Act for
the re-offer, resale, pledge or transfer of the Securities.
(b) Purchaser further represents that:

Purchaser or prepared in connection with the offer and issuance of the
Securities and that neither the Company or any of its agents has
provided, and will not be providing, Purchaser with any other material
regarding the Securities or the Company prepared by the Company or any
other person. Purchaser has not requested the Company or any of its
agents to provide Purchaser with any such information.
(ii) Except as set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement, neither
the Company nor any of its agents makes any representation or warranty,
expressed or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the
information provided or to be provided to Purchaser by the Company,
and nothing contained in any documents provided to Purchaser is, or
shall be relied upon as, a promise or representation by the Company or
any of its agents.
(iii) An investment in the Securities includes a high degree of
risk. In making the decision to acquire the Securities, (a) Purchaser
has such business and financial experience as is required to give
Purchaser the capacity to protect its own interests in connection
with the purchase of the Securities, (b) Purchaser has not relied and
will not rely on any investigation that any person acting on its behalf
may have conducted with respect to the Securities or the Company and
(c) such Purchaser will make its own
5
investment decision regarding the Securities based on its own knowledge
and investigation of the Company and the Securities.
4.5 NO CONFLICT. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by
Purchaser and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby will not conflict with or result in any violation of or default by
Purchaser (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise
to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to
a loss of a material benefit under (i) any provision of the organizational
documents of Purchaser or (ii) any agreement or instrument, permit, franchise,
license, judgment, order, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulations,
applicable to such Purchaser or its respective properties or assets.
4.6 BROKERS. Purchaser has not retained, utilized or been
represented by any broker or finder in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated herein have been obtained and are effective as of the Closing Date.

The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include the
Shares and the Warrant Shares in a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the
"Registration Statement") to be filed with the SEC promptly after the Company is
S-3 eligible, and to request acceleration of effectiveness by September 29,
2000. Such Registration Statement will provide for the non-underwritten resale
of the Shares and the Warrant Shares. Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until the
earlier of (a) such time all such Shares and Warrant Shares are sold and (b)
such Shares and Warrant Shares are saleable under Rule 144(k). Such registration
shall be subject to the normal terms and conditions used in connection with
resale prospectuses.
