             4.2 Form of 8.0% Convertible Debenture Agreement due December 31,

                 1999


Item 9.  Sales of Equity Securities Pursuant to Regulation S
         ---------------------------------------------------

             On January 31, 1998, the Company issued its 8.0% Convertible
         Debentures due December 31, 1999 (the "Debentures"), in the aggregate
         original principal amount of $200,000. The Debentures were issued at
         face value in offshore transactions pursuant to Regulation S
         promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The
         purchasers were accredited investors (as defined in Regulation D
         promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended). In
         connection with the sale of the Debentures, the Company paid placement
         fees of $24,000 to Select Capital Advisors, Inc., of Miami Florida and
         $12,500 to South Beach Financial Corporation. The Company is also
         obligated to issue to Select Capital Advisors, Inc. stock purchase
         warrants for the purchase of 20,000 shares of the Company's common
         stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"). The warrants are
         exercisable at $0.60 per share.

             The Debentures are convertible at any time commencing 45 days after
         issuance, into shares of he Company's Common Stock at a conversion
         price for each share of Common Stock equal to the lower of (a) 75% of
         the closing bid price of the Common Stock for the five trading days
         immediately preceding the conversion date as reported by the American
         Stock Exchange, or (b) 75% of the closing bid price of the Common Stock
         for the five business days immediately preceding the date of
         subscription by the holder as reported by the American Stock Exchange
         (the "Conversion Price"). Assuming that the market price of the Common
         Stock at the time of conversion is not less than the market price at
         the time of subscription, based on a conversion price of $0.375 per
         share, the Debentures would be convertible into 533,333 shares of
         Common Stock. In the event the conversion price is such that it would
         result in an issuance of 20% or more of the issued and outstanding
         Common Stock of the Company, the Company may redeem a sufficient
         portion of the Debentures so that such conversion would result in an
         issuance of less than 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding
         Common Stock. The Common Stock issuable on the conversion of the
         Debentures (if not otherwise tradable without restriction) is subject
         to certain registration rights between the Company and the purchasers
         of the Debentures.

 
             The Debentures are due on December 31, 1998, and bear interest at
         the rate of 8% per annum. Interest on the Debentures is payable
         quarterly in cash or Common Stock at the option of the Company at the
         conversion price.
