the Investor shall acquire and receive from the Company, an aggregate of
14,700,000 shares of Common Stock (the "SHARES") "), subject to possible

transfer of immediately available funds, the credit described in Section 10 of

Shares. The failure of the Investor to purchase the Shares shall not constitute
a default under the Settlement Agreement or the Second Settlement Agreement.

Federal and state securities laws, (ii) any designations, rights, preferences
and powers set forth in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, and (iii) any
legends required to be imprinted on the certificates evidencing the Shares under

Material Adverse Effect.
(b) AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEMENT. Subject to the proposed
increase in the Company's authorized shares of common stock as described in
Section 12 of the Settlement Agreement (the "AUTHORIZED CAPITAL INCREASE"), the
Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to
carry out its obligations thereunder. Except for the Required Approvals, the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by
it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all
necessary action on the part of the Company and no further action is required by
the Company in connection therewith. This Agreement has been (or upon delivery
will have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance
3
with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the
Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as
such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors' rights and remedies or by
other equitable principles of general application.
(c) NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the
transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or
violate any provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation and bylaws, or
(ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or
lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any
rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without
notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other
instrument (evidencing a Company debt or otherwise) or other understanding to
which the Company is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company is
bound or affected, or (iii) subject to the filings contemplated by Section
3.1(d), result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment,
injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority
to which the Company is subject (including Federal and state securities laws and
regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or
affected; except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as could
not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect.
(d) FILINGS, CONSENTS AND APPROVALS. The Company is not
required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any
notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other Federal,
state, local or other governmental authority or other Person in connection with

paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens other than restrictions on
transfer provided for in this Agreement. The Company has reserved from its duly
authorized capital stock, subject to consummation of the Authorized Capital
Increase, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement.
(f) CAPITALIZATION. The number of shares and type of all
authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, and all shares
of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Company's various option and
incentive plans, is specified in the SEC Reports.
3.2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF INVESTOR. Investor hereby
represents to the Company as follows:

(a) INVESTMENT INTENT. Investor is acquiring the Shares as
principal for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or
reselling such Shares or any part thereof, without prejudice, however, to
Investor's right to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Shares
in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Investor is
acquiring the Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Investor
does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any
Person to distribute any of the Shares.
(b) INVESTOR STATUS. At the time Investor was offered the
Shares, it was, and at the date hereof it is, an "accredited investor" as
defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. Investor is not a registered
broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.
(c) GENERAL SOLICITATION. Investor is not purchasing the
Shares as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication
regarding the Shares published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or
broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other
general solicitation or general advertisement.
(d) ACCESS TO INFORMATION. Investor acknowledges that it has
reviewed the SEC Reports and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such
questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from,
representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the
offering of the Shares and the merits and risks of investing in the Shares; (ii)
access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of
operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable
it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such
additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without
unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment
decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other
investigation conducted by or on behalf of Investor or its representatives or
counsel shall modify, amend or affect Investor's right to rely on the truth,
accuracy and completeness of the SEC Reports and the Company's representations
and warranties contained in this Agreement.
(e) INDEPENDENT INVESTMENT DECISION. Investor has
independently evaluated the merits of its decision to purchase Shares pursuant
to this Agreement, and has not relied on the advice of any other Person or the
Company in making such decision.
ARTICLE IV.

4.1 The Shares may only be disposed of in compliance with state and
federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Shares to the
Company or to an Affiliate of Investor, the Company may require the transferor
thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the
transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require
registration of such transferred Shares under the Securities Act.
4.2 Certificates evidencing the Shares will contain the following
legends, until such time as the Shares are eligible for sale without restriction
under Rule 144 or state securities laws:
