security or other interest of any other corporation, limited partnership or

proposed, will, to the Company's knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach
of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any
contract, covenant or instrument under which any employee is now obligated. The

delivery, and performance of and compliance with this Agreement, and the Related
Agreements, and the issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant hereto and of the
Conversion Shares pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, will not, with
or without the passage of time or giving of notice, result in any such material
violation, or be in conflict with or constitute a default under any such term,
or result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge
upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or the suspension,
revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license,
authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations
or any of its assets or properties.
(b) The Company has avoided every condition, and has not
performed any act, the occurrence of which would result in the Company's loss of

to which the Company is a party if such loss would have a material adverse
effect on the assets, condition, affairs, or prospects of the Company,
financially or otherwise.
3.13 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
pending or to the Company's knowledge currently threatened against the Company
or its officers that questions the validity of this Agreement, or the Related
Agreements or the right of the Company to enter into any of such agreements, or
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or which might
result, either individually or in the aggregate, in any material adverse change
in the assets, condition, affairs or prospects of the Company, financially or
otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership of the Company, nor is
the Company aware that there is any basis for any of the foregoing. The

the Company has contracted, is in violation of any term of any employment
contract, proprietary information agreement or any other agreement relating to
the right of any such individual to be employed by, or to contract with, the
Company because of the nature of the business to be conducted by the Company;
and to the Company's knowledge the continued employment by the Company of its
present employees, and the performance of the Company's contracts with its
independent contractors, will not result in any such violation. The Company has
not received any notice alleging that any such violation has occurred. No
employee of the Company has been granted the right to continued employment by
the Company or to any material compensation following termination of employment
with the Company. The Company is not aware that any officer or key employee, or

manner. The Company has all franchises, permits, licenses and any similar
authority necessary for the conduct of its business as now being conducted by
it, the lack of which could materially and adversely affect the business,

obtain, without undue burden or expense, any similar authority for the conduct
of its business as planned to be conducted.

relating to the environment or occupational health and safety, and to its
knowledge, no material expenditures are or will be required in order to comply
with any such existing statute, law or regulation. No Hazardous Materials (as
defined below) are used or have been used, stored, or disposed of by the Company
or, to the Company's knowledge after reasonable investigation, by any other
person or entity on any property owned, leased or used by the Company. For the
purposes of the preceding sentence, "Hazardous Materials" shall mean (a)
materials which are listed or otherwise defined as "hazardous" or "toxic" under
any applicable local, state, federal and/or foreign laws and regulations that
govern the existence and/or remedy of contamination on property, the protection
of the environment from contamination, the control of hazardous wastes, or other
activities involving hazardous substances, including building materials, or (b)
any petroleum products or nuclear materials.
3.21 Offering Valid. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and
warranties of the Purchasers contained in Section 4.2 hereof, the offer, sale
and issuance of the Shares and the Conversion Shares will be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and will have been registered or qualified (or are exempt
from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit or
qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws. Neither the
Company nor any
10
agent on its behalf has solicited or will solicit any offers to sell or has
offered to sell or will offer to sell all or any part of the Shares to any
person or persons so as to bring the sale of such Shares by the Company within
the registration provisions of the Securities Act or any state securities laws.
3.22 Full Disclosure. The Company has provided the Purchasers with
all information requested by the Purchasers in connection with their decision to
purchase the Shares, including all information the Company believes is
reasonably necessary to make such investment decision. Neither this Agreement,
the Exhibits hereto, the Related Agreements nor any other document delivered by
the Company to Purchasers or their attorneys or agents in connection herewith or
therewith or with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, contain any
untrue statement of a material fact nor, omit to state a material fact necessary
in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Business Plan, dated November 1999 (the
"Business Plan") provided to each of the Purchasers was prepared by the
management of the Company in a good faith effort to describe the Company's
presently proposed business and products and the markets therefor. The
assumptions applied in preparing the Business Plan appeared reasonable to
management as of the date thereof and as of the date hereof; however, there is
no assurance that these assumptions will prove to be valid or that the
objectives set forth in the Business Plan will be achieved. To the Company's
knowledge, there are no facts which (individually or in the aggregate)
materially adversely affect the business, assets, liabilities, financial
condition, prospects or operations of the Company that have not been set forth
in the Agreement, the Exhibits hereto, the Related Agreements or in other
documents delivered to Purchasers or their attorneys or agents in connection
herewith.

the Purchasers contain a complete summary of all meetings of directors and
shareholders since the time of incorporation.

registering the Shares, the Conversion Shares or any shares of its Common Stock.
Purchaser also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from
registration under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if

of the Shares or the Conversion Shares under the circumstances, in the amounts
or at the times Purchaser might propose.

ask questions of and receive answers from, the Company and its management
regarding the terms and conditions of this investment.
(f) Rule 144. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the
Shares, and, if issued, the Conversion Shares must be held indefinitely unless
they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from
such registration is available. Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the
provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act as in effect from
time to time, which permits limited resale of shares purchased in a private
placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among
other things: the availability of certain current public information about the
Company, the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule
144 and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not
exceeding specified limitations.
