         (E) Investment Experience. The undersigned is an investor in securities
of companies in the development  stage and acknowledges  that it is able to fend
for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment,  and has directly,  or
indirectly  through  its agents,  advisors or other  persons on which it relies,
such  knowledge  and  experience  in  financial  or business  matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the  investment in the Stock.  The
undersigned  also  represents  it has not  been  organized  for the  purpose  of
acquiring  the Units.  The  undersigned  further  represents  that it has had an
opportunity to review the Unit  Agreements and ask questions and receive answers
from the  Company  regarding  the terms and  conditions  of the  offering of the
Units.

         (F) Restricted Securities.  The undersigned  understands that the Note,
the Warrant,  and the shares of Common Stock  issuable upon  conversion  thereof
will be characterized as "restricted  securities"  under the federal  securities
laws inasmuch as they are being  acquired from the Company in a transaction  not
involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable  regulations
such shares may be resold  without  registration  under the Act, only in certain
limited circumstances.

         (G) Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the
representations  set forth above, the undersigned further agrees not to make any
disposition of all or any portion of the Stock unless and until:

                  (a) There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the
Act  covering  such  proposed  disposition  and  such  disposition  is  made  in
accordance with such Registration Statement; or

                  (b) (i) The undersigned shall have notified the Company of the
proposed  disposition  and shall  have  furnished  the  Company  with a detailed
statement of the circumstances  surrounding the proposed  disposition,  and (ii)
the  undersigned  shall have  furnished  the Company with an opinion of counsel,
reasonably  satisfactory to the Company,  that such disposition will not require
registration under the Act.

         (H)  Responsibility  for Tax  Consequences.  The undersigned has had an
opportunity to review the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of
this  investment  and  the  transactions  contemplated  by the  Unit  Agreements
(including  any tax  consequences  that may result  now or in the  future  under
recently  enacted tax  legislation)  and has had the opportunity to consult with
his  tax  advisors,  if  any,  regarding  such  consequences.   The  undersigned
acknowledges that he is not relying on any statements or  representations of the
Company or any of its agents in regard to such tax  consequences and understands
that he (and not the Company)  shall be  responsible  for his own tax  liability
that may arise as a result of this investment or the  transactions  contemplated
by the Unit  Agreements.  The undersigned  acknowledges  that the Company has no
obligation  in regard to the future  conduct of its  business  to act or refrain
from acting in any manner, regardless of the loss of any tax benefit to Investor
in connection with the purchase, ownership, or sale of the Units or Common Stock
issuable upon conversion thereof, which may result from such action or inaction.

         (I) Legends.  It is understood  that the Units and the shares of Common
Stock  issuable upon  conversion  thereof and any  securities  issued in respect
thereof or exchange therefor may bear one or all of the following legends:

                  (a)  "THESE  SECURITIES  HAVE NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER  THE
SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933.  THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD,  OFFERED  FOR SALE,  PLEDGED  OR

SECURITIES  UNDER SAID ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL  REASONABLY  SATISFACTORY TO
THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."
