RESOLVED, that the Company is authorized to issue 1,069 shares of
Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series G Preferred Shares"), $.01 par

preferences and other special rights:
(1) DIVIDENDS. The Series G Preferred Shares shall not bear any
dividends except as provided herein.
(2) HOLDER'S CONVERSION OF SERIES G PREFERRED SHARES. A holder of

any holder of Series G Preferred Shares shall be entitled to convert any Series
G Preferred Shares into fully paid and nonassessable shares (rounded to the
nearest whole share in accordance with Section 2(h) below) of Common Stock, at
the Conversion Rate (as defined below); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event
other than upon a Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section 2(f) hereof, shall
any holder be entitled to convert Series G Preferred Shares in excess of that
number of Series G Preferred Shares which, upon giving effect to such
conversion, would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates to exceed 9.9% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock following such conversion. For purposes
of the foregoing proviso, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates shall include the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series G Preferred Shares
with respect to which the determination of such proviso is being made, but shall
exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon
conversion of the remaining, nonconverted Series G Preferred Shares beneficially
owned by the holder and its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding
sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be
calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended.
(b) CONVERSION RATE. The number of shares of Common Stock

such period;
(iv) "CLOSING BID PRICE" means, for any security as of any date, the
last closing bid price on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market(TM) (the "Nasdaq-SM") as
reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets ("Bloomberg"), or, if the Nasdaq-SM is

proportionately reduced. If the Company at any time
combines (by combination, reverse stock split or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares, the Fixed Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination will be
proportionately increased.
(ii) REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION,

Series G Preferred Shares then outstanding) with
respect to such holders' rights and interests to
insur that the provisions of this Section 2(b) will
thereafter be applicable to the Series G Preferred
Shares. The Company will not effect any such
consolidation, merger or sale, unless prior to the
consummation thereof the successor entity (if other
than the Company) resulting from consolidation or
merger or the entity purchasing such assets assumes,
by written instrument (in form and substance
satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the
Series G Preferre Shares then outstanding), the
obligation to deliver to each holder o Series G
Preferred Shares such shares of stock, securities or
assets as, in accordance with the foregoing
provisions, such holder may be entitled to acquire.
Fo purposes of this Agreement, "PERSON" shall mean an
individual, a limited liability company, a
partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust,
an unincorporated organization and a government or
any department or agency thereof.
(iii) SPIN OFF. If, at any time prior to a Conversion Date,
the Company consummates a spin off or otherwise
divests itself of a part of its business or
operations or disposes of all or of a part of its
assets in a transaction (the "Spin Off") in which the
Company does not receive just compensation for such
business, operations or assets, but causes securities
of another entity (the "Spin Off Securities") to be
issued to security holders of the Company, then the
Company shall cause (i) to be reserved Spin Off
Securities equal to the number thereof which would
have been issued to the Holder had all of the
holder's Series G Preferred Shares outstanding on the
record date (the "Record Date") for determining the
amount and number of Spin Off Securities to be issued
to security holders of the Company been converted as
of the close of business on the trading day
immediately before the Record Date (the "Reserved
Spin Off Shares"), and (ii) to be issued to the
Holder on the conversion of all or any of the
outstanding Series G Preferred Shares, such amount of
the Reserved Spin Off Shares equal to (x) the
Reserved Spin Off Shares multiplied by (y) a
fraction, of which (a) the numerator is the principal
amount of the outstanding Series G Preferred Shares
then being converted, and (b) the denominator is the
principal amount of all the outstanding Series G
Preferred Shares.
(iv) NOTICES.
(A) Immediately upon any adjustment of the
Conversion Rate, the Company will give
written notice thereof to each holder of
Series G Preferred Shares, setting forth in
reasonable detail and certifying the
calculation of such adjustment.
(B) The Company will give written notice to each
holder of Series G Preferred Shares at least
twenty (20) days prior to the date on which
the Company closes its books or takes a
record (I) with respect to any dividend or
distribution upon the Common Stock, (II)
with respect to any pro rata subscription
offer to holders of Common Stock or (III)
for determining rights to vote with respect
to any Organic Change, dissolution or
liquidation.
(C) The Company will also give written notice to
each holder of Series G Preferred Shares at
least twenty (20) days prior to the date on
which any Organic Change (as defined below),
dissolution or liquidation will take place.
(d) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Subject to the Company's ability to fully
satisfy its obligations under a Conversion Notice (as defined below) as provided
for in Section 5 below:
(i) HOLDER'S DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS. To convert Series G Preferred
Shares into full shares of Common Stock on any date (the
"Conversion Date"), the holder thereof shall (A) deliver or
transmit by facsimile, for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m.,
Eastern Standard Time, on such date, a copy of a fully
executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit I (the "Conversion Notice") to the Company or its
designated transfer agent (the "Transfer Agent"), and (B)
surrender to a common carrier for delivery to the Company or
the Transfer Agent as soon as practicable following such date,
the original certificates representing the Series G Preferred
Shares being converted (or an indemnification undertaking with
respect to such shares in the e case of their loss, theft or
destruction) (the "Preferred Stock Certificates") and the
originally executed Conversion Notice.
(ii) COMPANY'S RESPONSE. Upon receipt by the Company of a facsimile
copy of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall immediately
send, via facsimile, a confirmation of receipt of such
Conversion Notice to such holder. Upon receipt by the Company
or the Transfer Agent of the Preferred Stock Certificates to
be converted pursuant to a Conversion Notice, together with
the originally executed Conversion Notice, the Company or the
Transfer Agent (as applicable) shall, within five (5) business
days following the date of receipt, (A) issue and surrender to
a common carrier for overnight delivery to the address as
specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered
in the name of the holder or its designee, for the number of
shares of Common Stock to which the holder shall be entitled
or (B) credit the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
to which the holder shall be entitled to the holder's or its
designee's balance account at The Depository Trust Company.
(iii) RECORD HOLDER. The person or persons entitled to receive the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of Series G
Preferred Shares shall be treated for all purposes as the
record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the
Conversion Date.
(e) NASDAQ LISTING. So long as the Common Stock is listed for trading
on NASDAQ or an exchange or quotation system with a rule substantially similar
to NASDAQ Rule 4460(i) then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein if, at any time, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then
issued upon conversion of the Series G Preferred Shares (including any shares of
capital stock or rights to acquire shares of capital stock issued by the
Corporation which are aggregated or integrated with the Common Stock issued or
issuable upon conversion of the Series G Preferred Shares for purposes of such
rule) equals 19.99% of the "Outstanding Common Amount" (as hereinafter defined),
the Series G Preferred Shares shall, from that time forward, cease to be
convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof, unless the
Corporation (i) has obtained approval of the issuance of the Common Stock upon
conversion of the Series G Preferred Shares by a majority of the total votes
cast on such proposal, in person or by proxy, by the holders of the
then-outstanding Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by
present or former holders of Series G Preferred Shares that were issued upon
conversion of Series G Preferred Shares (the "Stockholder Approval"), or (ii)
shall have otherwise obtained permission to allow such issuances from NASDAQ in
accordance with NASDAQ Rule 4460(i). If the Corporation's Common Stock is not
then listed on NASDAQ or an exchange or quotation system that has a rule
substantially similar to Rule 4460(i) then the limitations set forth herein
shall be inapplicable and of no force and effect. For purposes of this
paragraph, "Outstanding Common Amount" means (i) the number of shares of the
Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of the Series G Preferred
Shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement plus (ii) any additional shares of
Common Stock issued thereafter in respect of such shares pursuant to a stock
dividend, stock split or similar event. The maximum number of shares of Common
Stock issuable as a result of the 19.99% limitation set forth herein is
hereinafter referred to as the "Maximum Share Amount." With respect to each
holder of Series G Preferred Stock, the Maximum Share Amount shall refer to such
holder's pro rata share thereof. In the event that Corporation obtains
Stockholder Approval or the approval of NASDAQ, or by reason of the
inapplicability of
the rules of NASDAQ or otherwise, the Corporation concludes that it is able to
increase the number of shares to be issued above the Maximum Share Amount (such
increased number being the "New Maximum Share Amount"), the references to
Maximum Share Amount, above, shall be deemed to be, instead, references to the
greater New Maximum Share Amount. In the event that Stockholder Approval is
obtained and there are insufficient reserved or authorized shares, or a
registration statement covering the additional shares of Common Stock which
constitute the New Maximum Share Amount is not effective prior to the Maximum
Share Amount being issued (if such registration statement is necessary to allow
for the public resale of such securities), the Maximum Share Amount shall remain
unchanged; provided, however, that the holders of Series G Preferred Shares may
grant an extension to obtain a sufficient reserved or authorized amount of
shares or of the effective date of such registration statement. In the event
that (a) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon
conversion of the outstanding Series G Preferred Shares represents at least
twenty percent (20%) of the Maximum Share Amount and (b) the sum of (x) the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Series G
Preferred Shares plus (y) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that
remain issuable upon conversion of Series G Preferred Shares and based on the
Conversion Price then in effect), represents at least one hundred percent (100%)
of the Maximum Share Amount, the Corporation will use its best reasonable
efforts to seek and obtain Stockholder Approval (or obtain such other relief as
will allow conversions hereunder in excess of the Maximum Share Amount) as soon
as practicable following the Triggering Event and before the Mandatory
Redemption Date.
(f) FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a
share of Common Stock upon any conversion. All shares of Common Stock (including
fractions thereof) issuable upon conversion of more than one share of the Series
G Preferred Shares by a holder thereof shall be aggregated for purposes of
determining whether the conversion would result in the issuance of a fraction of
a share of Common Stock. lf, after the aforementioned aggregation, the issuance
would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the
Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or down to the
nearest whole share.
(g) TAXES. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be imposed
upon it with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon the
conversion of the Series G Preferred Shares.
(3) REISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES. In the event of a conversion or
redemption pursuant to this Certificate of Designations of less than all of the
Series G Preferred Shares represented by a particular Preferred Stock
Certificate, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the
holder of such Series G Preferred Shares a Preferred Stock Certificate
representing the remaining Series G Preferred Shares which have not been so
converted or redeemed.
(4) RESERVATION OF SHARES. During the Conversion Period, the Company
shall, so long as any of the Series G Preferred Shares are outstanding, reserve
and keep available out of its
authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the
conversion of the Series G Preferred Shares, such number of shares of Common
Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to affect the conversion of all
of the Series G Preferred Shares then outstanding; provided that the number of
shares of Common Stock so reserved shall at no time be less than 100% of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which the Series G Preferred Shares are at
any time convertible.
(5) VOTING RIGHTS. Holders of Series G Preferred Shares shall have no
voting rights, except as required by law, including but not limited to the
General Corporation Law of Delaware.
(6) LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION, WINDING-UP. In the event of any voluntary
or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, the
holders of the Series G Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive in cash
out of the assets of the Company, whether from capital or from earnings
available for distribution to its stockholders (the "Preferred Funds"), before
any amount shall be paid to the holders of any of the capital stock of the
Company of any class junior in rank to the Series G Preferred Shares (other than
the Series F Preferred Shares which shall be equal in rank) in respect of the
preferences as to the distributions and payments on the liquidation, dissolution
and winding up of the Company, an amount per Series G Preferred Share equal to
$1,000 (such sum being referred to as the "Liquidation Value"); provided that,
if the Preferred Funds are insufficient to pay the full amount due to the
holders of Series G Preferred Shares and holders of shares of other classes or
series of preferred stock of the Company that are of equal rank with the Series
G Preferred Shares as to payments of Preferred Funds (the "Pari Passu Shares"),
then each holder of Series G Preferred Shares and Pari Passu Shares shall
receive a percentage of the Preferred Funds equal to the full amount of
Preferred Funds payable to such holder as a liquidation preference, in
accordance with their respective Certificate of Designations, Preferences and
Rights, as a percentage of the full amount of Preferred Funds payable to all
holders of Series G Preferred Shares and Pari Passu Shares. The purchase or
redemption by the Company of stock of any class in any manner permitted by law,
shall not for the purposes hereof, be regarded as a liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company. Neither the consolidation or merger of the Company
with or into any other Person, nor the sale or transfer by the Company of less
than substantially all of its assets, shall, for the purposes hereof, be deemed
to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. No holder of
Series G Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive any amounts with respect
thereto upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company other
than the amounts provided for herein.
(7) PREFERRED RATE. All shares of Common Stock shall be of junior rank
to all Series G Preferred Shares in respect to the preferences as to
distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution, and winding up of
the Company. The rights of the Series G Preferred Shares shall be subject to the
Preferences and relative rights of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock,
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, Series D Convertible Preferred Stock,
Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, and Series F Convertible Preferred Stock.
Without the prior express written consent of the holders of not less than a
majority of the then outstanding Series G Preferred Shares, the
Company shall not hereafter authorize or issue additional or other capital stock
(other than the Series F Preferred Shares which shall be equal in rank) that is
of senior or equal rank to the Series G Preferred Shares in respect of the
preferences as to distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution
and winding up of the Company. Without the prior express written consent of the
holders of not less than a majority of the then outstanding Series G Preferred
Shares, the Company shall not hereafter authorize or make any amendment to the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or make any resolution of the
board of directors with the Delaware Secretary of State containing any
provisions, which would materially and adversely affect or otherwise impair the
rights or relative priority of the holders of the Series G Preferred Shares
relative to the holders of the Common Stock or the holders of any other class of
capital stock. In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company with
or into another corporation, the Series G Preferred Shares shall maintain their
relative powers, designations, and preferences provided for herein and no merger
shall result inconsistent therewith.
(8) RESTRICTION ON DIVIDENDS. If any Series G Preferred Shares are
outstanding, without the prior express written consent of the holders of not
less than a majority of the then outstanding Series G Preferred Shares, the
Company shall not directly or indirectly declare, pay or make any dividends or
other distributions upon any of the Common Stock so long as written notice
thereof has not been given to holders of the Series G Preferred Shares at least
30 days prior to the earlier of (a) the record date taken for or (b) the payment
of any such dividend or other distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Section 8 shall not prohibit the Company from declaring and paying a dividend in
cash with respect to the Common Stock so long as the Company: (i) pays
simultaneously to each holder of Series G Preferred Shares an amount in cash
equal to the amount such holder would have received had all of such holder's
Series G Preferred Shares been converted to Common Stock pursuant to Section 2
hereof one business day prior to the record date for any such dividend, and (ii)
after giving effect to the payment of any dividend and any other payments
required in connection therewith including to the holders of the Series G
Preferred Shares, the Company has in cash or cash equivalents an amount equal to
the aggregate of: (A) all of its liabilities reflected on its most recently
available balance sheet, (B) the amount of any indebtedness incurred by the
Company or any of its subsidiaries since its most recent balance sheet and (C)
120% of the amount payable to all holders of any shares of any class of
preferred stock of the Company assuming a liquidation of the Company as the date
of its most recently available balance sheet.
(9) VOTE TO CHANGE THE TERMS OF SERIES F PREFERRED SHARES. The
affirmative vote at a meeting duly called for such purpose, or the written
consent without a meeting of the holders of not less than 66-2/3% of the then
outstanding Series G Preferred Shares, shall be required for any change to this
Certificate of Designations or the Company's Certificate of Incorporation which
would amend, alter, change or repeal any of the powers, designations,
preferences and rights of the Series G Preferred Shares.
(10) LOST OR STOLEN CERTIFICATES. Upon receipt by the Company of
evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of any Preferred Stock
Certificates representing the Series G Preferred Shares, and, in the case of
loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the holder to
the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of
the Preferred Stock Certificate(s), the Company shall execute and deliver new
preferred stock certificate(s) of like tenor and date; provided, however, the
Company shall not be obligated to re-issue preferred stock certificates if the
holder contemporaneously requests the Company to convert such Series G Preferred
Shares into Common Stock.
(11) WITHHOLDING TAX OBLIGATIONS. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, to the extent that the Company receives advice in writing from its
counsel that there is a reasonable basis to believe that the Company is required
by applicable federal laws or regulations and delivers a copy of such written
advice to the holders of the Series G Preferred Shares so effected, the Company
may reasonably condition the making of any distribution (as such term is defined
under applicable federal tax law and regulations) in respect of any Series G
Preferred Share on the holder of such Series G Preferred Shares depositing with
the Company an amount of cash sufficient to enable the Company to satisfy its
withholding tax obligations (the "Withholding Tax") with respect to such
distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary, if any
holder of the Series G Preferred Shares so effected receives advice in writing
from its counsel that there is a reasonable basis to believe that the Company is
not so required by applicable federal laws or regulations and delivers a copy of
such written advice to the Company, the Company shall not be permitted to
condition the making of any such distribution in respect of any Series G
Preferred Share on the holder of such Series G Preferred Shares depositing with
the Company any Withholding Tax with respect to such distribution, PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, the Company may reasonably condition the making of any such
distribution in respect of any Series G Preferred Share on the holder of such
Series G Preferred Shares executing and delivering to the Company, at the
election of the holder, either: (i) if applicable, a properly completed Internal
Revenue Service Form 4224, or (a) an indemnification agreement in reasonably
acceptable form, with respect to any federal tax liability, penalties and
interest that may be imposed upon the Company by the Internal Revenue Service as
a result of the Company's failure to withhold in connection with such
distribution to such holder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Certificate of
Designations to be signed by ___________________, its ____________________, as
of the ______ day of _____________, 2003.
