                                 PROXY STATEMENT
                       2001 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

     Wire One Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Wire One" or the
"Company"), is furnishing this proxy statement in a solicitation by our Board of
Directors of proxies for use in voting at our 2001 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof (the "Annual Meeting").
Our Annual Meeting will be held at 9:00 a.m. local time on Friday, May 25, 2001,
at the Holiday Inn, 304 Route 22 West, Springfield, New Jersey 07081. This proxy
statement, the accompanying proxy card and the Form 10-K for 2000 for the
Company are first being mailed to stockholders on or about April __, 2001. Wire
One was formed by the merger of All Communications Corporation ("ACC") and View
Tech, Inc. ("VTI") in May 2000.

     At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to consider and vote upon
(1) the election of two directors each to serve a three-year term as a Class II
Director; (2) the approval of the issuance by the Company of more than 20% of
its common stock (based on 16,570,641 shares of common stock outstanding on June
14, 2000 (the "Original Issue Date") upon the conversion of 2,450 shares of its
series A convertible preferred stock (the "series A preferred") and exercise of
857,500 warrants to purchase its common stock originally issued on the Original
Issue Date in accordance with Nasdaq National Market Rule 4350(i)(1)(D) (the
"Rule"); and (3) the ratification of the appointment of BDO Seidman, LLP as our
independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. At the Annual
Meeting, stockholders may also be asked to consider and take action with respect
to such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Record Date; Quorum

     Only holders of record of the Company's common stock, par value $.0001 per
share (the "Common Stock"), at the close of business on April 25, 2000 (the
"Record Date") are entitled to vote on the matters to be presented at the Annual
Meeting. As of the Record Date, approximately __________ shares of Common Stock
were issued and outstanding, each of which entitles its holder to cast one vote
on each matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting. A quorum is present at the
Annual Meeting if a majority of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding
and entitled to vote on the Record Date are represented in person or by proxy.
If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting may be adjourned from time to
time until a quorum is obtained.

Voting Procedures

     The shares represented by the proxies received, properly dated and executed
and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the
instructions of the stockholders. Properly executed proxies that do not contain
voting instructions will be voted (1) in favor of the nominees for election as
directors named below, (2) FOR issuance by the Company of more than 20% of its
common stock (based on 16,570,641 shares of common stock outstanding on the
Original Issue Date) upon the conversion of the series A preferred and exercise
of the related warrants and (3) FOR ratification of BDO Seidman, LLP as our
independent auditors and other matters which the proxy holders deem advisable
during the Annual Meeting.

     Abstentions and broker "non-votes" will be treated as shares that are
present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a
quorum and as unvoted for purposes of determining the approval of any matter
submitted to the stockholders for a vote. A broker "non-vote" occurs when a
nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular
proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary power for that
particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

                                       1

Solicitation and Revocation

     Any stockholder who executes a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is
voted by filing with the Secretary of the Company a written statement revoking
such proxy. Stockholders should make such filing to the attention of Jonathan
Birkhahn, Secretary, Wire One Technologies, Inc., 225 Long Avenue, Hillside, New
Jersey 07205. You may also revoke a proxy at any time before it is voted by
executing and delivering a proxy bearing a later date or by voting in person at
the Annual Meeting. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting will not by itself
constitute revocation of a proxy.

         Wire One will bear the cost of the solicitation of proxies from its
stockholders, including the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing the proxy
solicitation materials. In addition to solicitation by mail, the directors,
officers and employees of Wire One and its subsidiaries may solicit proxies from
stockholders by telephone or other electronic means or in person, but any such
person will not be specifically compensated for such services. The Company will
cause brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward
solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of stock held of record by such
persons. The Company will reimburse such custodians, nominees and fiduciaries
for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in doing so. American Stock Transfer
and Trust has been engaged by the Company to aid in the distribution of the
proxy materials for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

Stockholder Proposals

     Proposals of stockholders intended to be presented at the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders to be held in 2002 must be received by the Secretary, Wire One
Technologies, Inc., 225 Long Avenue, Hillside, New Jersey 07205, no later than
[April 25, 2002].

     In addition, the Company's by-laws provide that, in order for a stockholder
to nominate a person for election to the Board of Directors at an annual meeting
of stockholders or to propose business for consideration at such meeting, such
stockholder must give written notice to the Secretary of the Company not less
than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the anniversary date of the
immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders; provided however, that in
the event the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 30 days
before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be
timely must be received not later than the close of business on the 10th day
following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was
mailed or such public disclosure of the date the annual meeting was made,
whichever occurs first.

                                   PROPOSAL #1
                              ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     Our directors are divided into three classes. The number of directors is
determined from time to time by our Board of Directors and currently is fixed at
seven. A single class of directors is elected each year at the annual meeting of
stockholders. Each director elected at an annual meeting will serve for a term
ending at the third annual meeting of stockholders after his or her election and
until his or her successor is elected and duly qualified.

     The directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting are Class II directors
and are to serve until the 2004 annual meeting or until their respective
successors are elected and duly qualified. The nominees who will stand for
election are Leo Flotron and Peter Maluso, both of whom are currently members of
our Board of Directors. The two nominees receiving the highest number of
affirmative votes will be elected as Class II directors. In the event any
nominee is unable or unwilling to serve as a nominee, the Board of Directors may
select a substitute nominee. If a substitute nominee is selected, proxies will
be voted in favor of such nominee. Our Board of Directors has no reason to
believe that either of Messrs. Flotron or Maluso will be unable or unwilling to
serve as a nominee or as a director if elected.

     The following table sets forth information with respect to the current
directors, director nominees and executive officers.

     The Audit Committee makes recommendations as to the engagement and fees of
the independent auditors, reviews the preparations for and the scope of the
audit of Wire One's annual financial statements, reviews drafts of such
statements and monitors the functioning of Wire One's accounting and internal
control systems by meeting with representatives of management, the independent
auditors and the internal auditors.

     The Audit Committee met with members of the engagement team of BDO Seidman,
LLP ("BDO") in 2001 to review the results of the 2000 audit and to discuss the
scope of the 2001 audit. During this meeting, the Audit Committee discussed the
matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 1 with
BDO. BDO delivered the written disclosures and letter required by Independence
Standards Board Standard No. 1. This Standard requires auditors to communicate,
in writing, at least annually, all relationships between the auditors and the
Company that, in the auditor's professional judgement, may reasonably be thought
to affect the auditor's independence. The Audit Committee has received this
disclosure and discussed with BDO its independence from the Company. In
addition, the Audit Committee discussed the audited financial statements for
1999 and the results of the audit with the Company's management. Based upon its
meetings with BDO and its review of the audited financial statements, the Audit
Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be
included in ACC's Annual Report on Form 10-K.


     The Audit Committee plans to meet with BDO again in 2001 to review the
scope of the 2001 audit.

Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation

     Scope of the Committee's Work

     The Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors has the
authority and responsibility to establish the overall compensation strategy for
Wire One, including salary and bonus levels, and to review and make
recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of Wire One's
executive officers. The current members of the Compensation Committee are
Messrs. Capolino, Hiltzik and Maluso, each of whom is a non-employee director
within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and an "outside director"
within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Compensation Committee was
established in 1999; prior thereto, compensation decisions and grants of stock
options were made by the full Board.

     Executive Compensation Philosophy and Policies

     Wire One's overall compensation philosophy is to provide a total
compensation package that is competitive and enables Wire One to attract,
motivate, reward and retain key executives and other employees who have the
skills and experience necessary to promote the short-and long-term financial
performance and growth of the Company.

     The Compensation Committee recognizes the critical role of its executive
officers in the significant growth and success of the Company to date and its
future prospects. Accordingly, Wire One's executive compensation policies are
designed to (1) align the interests of executive officers with those of
stockholders by encouraging stock ownership by executive officers and by making
a significant portion of executive compensation dependent upon the Company's
financial performance, (2) provide compensation that will attract and retain
talented professionals, (3) reward individual results through base salary,
annual cash bonuses, long-term incentive compensation in the form of stock
options and various other benefits and (4) manage compensation based on skill,
knowledge, effort and responsibility needed to perform a particular job
successfully.

     In establishing salary, bonuses and long-term incentive compensation for
its executive officers, the Compensation Committee takes into account both the
position and the expertise of a particular executive, as well as the Committee's
understanding of competitive compensation for similarly situated executives in
the Company's sector of the technology industry.

     Executive Compensation

     Base Salary. Salaries for executive officers for 2000 and 2001 were
generally determined by the Compensation Committee on an individual basis in
connection with the determination of the terms of such executives applicable
employment agreement, based upon the following criteria: such executive's scope
of responsibility, performance, prior experience and salary history, as well as
the salaries for similar positions at comparable companies.

                                       10

     Bonus. The amount of cash bonuses paid to executives was partially based
upon the financial results of Wire One and partially based on the decision of
the Chief Executive Officer. Messrs. Flotron and Scotti each received a bonus of
$157,237 respectively. Mr. Zigmont received a bonus of $35,000 and Mr. Tansey
received a bonus of $25,000 for their respective services in 2000. As noted
above, Messrs. Flotron and Scotti were also paid a bonus in 2000 in the form of
stock option grants. In 2000, Mr. Zigmont received options to purchase 100,000
shares of Wire One common stock.

     Long-Term Incentive Awards. The Compensation Committee believes that
equity-based compensation in the form of stock options links the interests of
executives with the long-term interests of Wire One's stockholders and
encourages executives to remain in Wire One's employ. The Company grants stock
options in accordance with its various stock option plans. Grants are awarded
based on a number of factors, including the individual's level of
responsibility, the amount and term of options already held by the individual,
the individual's contributions to the achievement of Wire One's financial and
strategic objectives, and industry practices and norms.

     Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer

     Mr. Reiss, who served as ACC's Chairman of the Board of Directors,
President and Chief Executive Officer since its formation in 1991 until May
2000, and has served as Wire One's President and Chief Executive Officer since
its formation in May 2000, was paid a base salary of $275,000 in 2000. He was
also paid a cash bonus of $135,000 for his service to us in 2000.

     Effective January 1, 1997, we entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr.
Reiss (see "Employment Agreements" above) pursuant to which he serves as
President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Reiss's salary and other compensation
and the terms of his employment agreement have been established by reference to
the salaries and equity participations of other chief executive officers of
companies in the Company's industry and related industries and in recognition of
Mr. Reiss' unique skills and importance to the Company.

     Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) Limitation

     Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, enacted in 1993, generally
disallows a tax deduction to publicly held companies for compensation exceeding
$1 million per year paid to certain of the Company's executive officers. The
limitation applies only to compensation that is not considered to be
performance-based. The non-performance based compensation paid to Wire One's
executive officers in 1999 did not exceed the $1 million per year limit per
officer. The 2000 Plan is structured so that any compensation deemed paid to an
executive officer in connection with the exercise of option grants made under
that plan will qualify as performance-based compensation which will not be
subject to the $1 million per year limit. The Compensation Committee currently
intends to limit the dollar amount of all non-performance based compensation
payable to the Company's executive officers to no more than $1 million per year.
The Compensation Committee is aware of the limitations imposed by Section
162(m), and the exemptions available therefrom, and will address the issue of
deductibility when and if circumstances warrant.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

     Dean Hiltzik and Peter Maluso served on the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors of ACC and Wire One during 2000. No member of the
Compensation Committee was at any time during 2000 or at any other time an
officer or employee of Wire One. We receive financial and tax services from an
accounting firm in which Mr. Hiltzik is a partner (see "Certain Relationships
and Related Transactions" below). No member of the Compensation Committee served
on the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity which has one
or more executive officers serving as a member of the Board or its Compensation
Committee.

                 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     The landlord for our Hillside, New Jersey office is Vitamin Realty
Associates, L.L.C. of which Eric Friedman, one of our directors, is a member.
These premises consist of 38,954 feet of office space and secured warehouse
facilities. The lease term is for five years and expires on August 31, 2005. The
base rental for the premises during the term of the lease is $259,100 per year.
In addition, Wire One must pay its share of the landlord's operating expenses
(i.e., those costs or expenses incurred by the landlord in connection with the
ownership, operation, management, maintenance, repair and replacement of the
premises, including, among other things, the cost of common area electricity,
operational services and real estate taxes). For the years ended December 31,
2000, 1999 and 1998, rent expense associated with this lease was $225,000,
$135,000 and $119,000, respectively. We believe that the lease reflects a fair
rental value for the property and is on terms no less favorable than we could
obtain in an arm's length transaction with an independent third party.

     We receive financial and tax services from an accounting firm in which Dean
Hiltzik, one of the Company's directors, is a partner. Since Mr. Hiltzik became
a director of ACC on September 15, 1999, we have incurred fees of approximately
$112,000 in services received from this firm, $62,000 of which were incurred in
2000.

           STOCK OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

     The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial
ownership of Common Stock as of April 4, 2001 by each of the following:

     o each person (or group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the
       Securities Exchange Act of 1934) known by us to own beneficially 5% or
       more of the Common Stock;

     o Wire One's directors and Named Executive Officers; and

     o all directors and executive officers of Wire One as a group.

     As used in this table, "beneficial ownership" means the sole or shared
power to vote or direct the voting or to dispose or direct the disposition of
any security. A person is considered the beneficial owner of securities that can
be acquired within 60 days from the date of this proxy statement through the
exercise of any option, warrant or right. Shares of Common Stock subject to
options, warrants or rights which are currently exercisable or exercisable
within 60 days are considered outstanding for computing the ownership percentage
of the person holding such options, warrants or rights, but are not considered
outstanding for computing the ownership percentage of any other person. The
amounts and percentages are based upon 17,349,144 shares of Common Stock
outstanding as of April 4, 2001.


                                                                                      Percentage

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

         Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), requires the Company's executive officers and directors and
persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity
securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Executive officers, directors and greater
than 10% stockholders are required by regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

         Based solely on our review of the copies of reports we received, or
written representations that no such reports were required for those persons, we
believe that, for 2000, all statements of beneficial ownership required to be
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission were filed on a timely basis
except as follows: one late report for each of Michael Brandofino and Kelly
Harman was filed in connection with Mr. Brandofino's and Ms. Harman's
appointments as executive officers; one late report was filed for each of
Christopher Zigmont and Louis Capolino.

                                   PROPOSAL #2
        APPROVAL OF COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE UPON CONVERSION AND EXERCISE OF
                                   SECURITIES

     The stockholders are being asked, in accordance with the requirements of
Rule 4350(i)(1)(D) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (the "Rule"), to approve the
issuance by the Company of more than 20% of its common stock upon the conversion
of the Company's series A preferred and exercise of the related warrants. The
Rule restricts the Company from issuing more 20% of its outstanding shares of
common stock at less than market value in any transaction unless the Company
obtains prior stockholder approval (the "Exchange Cap").

         On the Original Issue Date of June 14, 2000, the Company issued 2,450
shares of its series A preferred and warrants to purchase 857,500 shares of its
common stock in a private placement to institutional and strategic investors,
none of whom were officers or directors of the Company. The net proceeds of the
offering were approximately $16.3 million. A detailed description of the
material terms of the series A preferred and the related warrants is attached
hereto as Appendix A. The series A preferred and the related warrants have
customary anti-dilution provisions. Each share of series A preferred has a
stated value of $7,000, and is convertible into the Company's common stock at a
conversion price, fixed until June 14, 2001, of $7.00 per share (and then
subject to reduction as described below). Each warrant has an exercise price of
$10.50 per share. Each of these prices is lower than the $11.50 closing price of
the Company's common stock on the Original Issue Date. Thus, the Rule's
restrictions upon conversions of the series A preferred and exercise of the
related warrants may apply.

         If all the series A preferred were converted at the price of $7.00 per
share, and reserving shares for the potential exercise of all of the related
warrants, the Company would be obligated to issue 3,307,500 shares of its common
stock, representing 19.96% of the Company's outstanding common stock (based on
16,570,641 shares of common stock outstanding on the Original Issue Date).

         Beginning on June 14, 2001, each holder of series A preferred has the
right to substitute an "alternative conversion price" for the $7.00 fixed
conversion price. The alternative conversion price is the higher of (i) 70% of
the fixed conversion price then in effect or (ii) the market price on any
conversion date, which is defined for such purposes as the average of the
closing sale prices of the Company's common stock during the 20 consecutive
trading days immediately preceding such conversion date. The average closing
price of the Company's common stock for the twenty (20) trading days prior to
the date of this proxy statement was $_____. If the Company's common stock price
remains below $7.00 per share beyond June 14, 2001, it is likely that a holder
of the series A preferred will choose the alternative conversion price upon
conversion of such holder's shares.

         By application of the Rule, and based on the 16,570,641 shares of the
Company's common stock outstanding on the Original Issue Date, the Company only
may issue 3,314,128 shares of its common stock upon conversion of the series A
preferred and exercise of the related warrants. To date, 335 shares of series A
preferred have been converted into 335,000 shares of common stock. After giving
effect to such conversions, and reserving shares for the potential exercise of
all of the related warrants, the maximum number of shares of common stock that
the Company could issue upon conversion of the 2,115 outstanding shares of
series A preferred without violating the Rule would be 2,121,628 shares,
corresponding to 1,485 shares of series A preferred. Accordingly, beginning on
June 14, 2001, assuming all outstanding shares of series A preferred stock are
converted at the lowest possible alternate conversion price of $4.90 per share,
the Company would be required, by the terms of the certificate of designation
setting forth the terms of the series A preferred, to redeem the remaining 630
shares of its series A preferred stock (otherwise convertible into 900,000
shares of common stock) in the form of a cash payment in the amount of 110% of
the $7,000 per share stated value, or $7,700 per share, for an aggregate
redemption price of $4,851,000.


         Because the market value of the Company's Common Stock at and
surrounding the Original Issue Date substantially exceeded the $7.00 per share
fixed conversion price, the Company anticipated, as described above, that it
would be required to issue no more than 20% of its outstanding shares of common
stock upon conversion of the series A preferred and exercise of the related
warrants and so determined not to seek your approval under the Rule prior to the
Original Issue Date to allow such an issuance.

                                       15


         The Company believes it would be in your best interests to issue common
stock in full satisfaction of conversion of the series A preferred and exercise
of the related warrants in lieu of the cash redemption described above. The
certificate of designation setting forth the terms of the series A preferred
expressly permits the Company to issue shares upon conversion of the series A
preferred in excess of the Exchange Cap as long as the Company first obtains
your approval, in accordance with the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

         In light of the foregoing, the Company recommends that you approve the
issuance of shares of its common stock in full satisfaction of conversion of the
series A preferred and exercise of the related warrants in excess of the
Exchange Cap.

Required Vote

     In accordance with the Rule, an affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the shares of common stock present at the Annual Meeting (excluding
any shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the series A preferred) in
person or by proxy and entitled to vote is required for approval of the issuance
by the Company of more than 20% of its common stock (based on 16,570,641 shares
of common stock outstanding on the Original Issue Date) in full satisfaction of
the conversion of the series A preferred and exercise of the related warrants.

     If this proposal is not approved, the Company will promptly seek to amend
the certificate of designation setting forth the terms of the series A preferred
to provide that it will abide by the Exchange Cap, irrespective of whether it
continues to maintain the listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Stock
Market. Such amendment would require the consent of holders of not less than 2/3
of the then outstanding shares of series A preferred. Accordingly, your failure
to approve this proposal will not result in the Company's seeking a delisting of
its common stock from the Nasdaq Stock Market.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE
ISSUANCE BY THE COMPANY OF SHARES OF ITS COMMON STOCK IN FULL SATISFACTION OF
CONVERSION OF THE SERIES A PREFERRED AND EXERCISE OF THE RELATED WARRANTS IN
EXCESS OF THE EXCHANGE CAP.

                                   PROPOSAL #3
               RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors of the Company has appointed the firm of BDO Seidman, LLP
as independent auditors to audit the consolidated financial statements of the
Company and its subsidiaries for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001,
subject to ratification by the stockholders of the Company. BDO audited the
Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2000.

A member of BDO is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, to be provided
with an opportunity to make a statement if such member desires to do so and to
be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Required Vote

Approval of the Independent Auditor Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a
majority of the votes cast by holders of Common Stock present at the Annual
Meeting in person or by proxy entitled to vote.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE
APPROVAL OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS PROPOSAL.

                                   APPENDIX A

             DESCRIPTION OF SERIES A PREFERRED AND RELATED WARRANTS

The following summary of the terms and provisions of our series A preferred and
related warrants is not complete and you should read our certificate of
designation and the form of warrant, which are attached as exhibits to our
public filings.

Series A Preferred Stock

2,500 shares of the Company's preferred stock have been designated as series A
preferred stock. As of the date hereof, the Company has outstanding 2,115 shares
of series A preferred stock, with 335 shares previously converted into 335,000
shares of common stock. Each share of series A preferred stock has a stated
value of $7,000, which is convertible into the Company's common stock at a fixed
conversion price equal to $7.00 per share. Beginning on June 14, 2001, each
holder of series A preferred stock has the option to substitute an "alternative
conversion price" for the $7.00 fixed conversion price. The alternative
conversion price is the higher of (i) 70% of the fixed conversion price then in
effect or (ii) the market price on any conversion date, which is equal to the
average of the closing sale prices of the common stock during the 20 consecutive
trading days immediately preceding any conversion date. There are no penalty
provisions requiring the Company to issue additional common stock for failure to
timely deliver shares of common stock upon conversion of its series A preferred
stock.

The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion is subject to
adjustment for stock splits, recapitalizations or other dilutive transactions,
as well as issuances of common stock at a price below the conversion price in
effect, or the issuance of warrants, options, rights, or convertible securities
which have an exercise price or conversion price less than the conversion price
then in effect.

The outstanding shares of series A preferred stock outstanding will convert
automatically into common stock at the applicable conversion price then in
effect on the earlier (i) the consummation of a sale of the Company's common
stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to a
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, the public offering
price of which is not less than $12.00 per share (adjusted for any stock splits,
stock dividends, combinations or recapitalizations) and in which the Company
receives aggregate gross proceeds of not less than $40,000,000 or (ii) the
conclusion of a 20 consecutive trading day period where the closing sale price
of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $12.50.

Pursuant to its terms, the series A preferred stock and the warrants issued in
connection therewith are convertible or exercisable by any holder only to the
extent that the number of shares of common stock issuable thereunder, together
with the number of shares of common stock owned by such holder and its
affiliates (but not including shares of common stock underlying unconverted or
unexercised options, warrants or convertible securities), would not exceed 4.99%
of the then outstanding common stock as determined in accordance with Section
13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In addition, the Company can not
effect any mandatory conversion until the registration statement covering the
resale of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the series A preferred
stock and exercise of the related warrants has been declared effective.


The Company is not obligated to issue any shares of its common stock upon
conversion of the series A preferred if the issuance of such shares of its
common stock would exceed that number of shares of common stock which the
Company can issue upon conversion of the series A preferred (the "Exchange Cap")
without breaching the Company's obligations under the rules or regulations of
the Nasdaq National Market, or the market or exchange where the common stock is
then traded, except that such limitation will not apply if the Company obtains
the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the
Nasdaq National Market, or the market or exchange where the common stock is then
traded (or any successor rule or regulation), for issuances of common stock in
excess of such amount or obtains a written opinion from outside counsel to the
Company that such approval is not required. Until such approval or written
opinion is obtained, no holder of series A preferred shall be issued, upon
conversion of such shares of series A preferred, shares of common stock in an
amount greater than the product of the Exchange Cap amount multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of series A preferred issued to
such holder and the denominator of which is 2,450.

                                       A-1

The Company also may be required to redeem each share of series A preferred
stock at 110% of the stated value, or $7,700 per share, upon the occurrence of
mergers, consolidations, tender offers or the sale of substantially all our
assets, or any of the following specified events:

o    the unavailability or lapse in the effectiveness of such registration
     statement for ten (10) consecutive trading days or an aggregate of thirty
     (30) trading days per year provided that such lapse is not due to factors
     solely within the control of a holder of the series A convertible preferred
     stock;

o    the suspension or halting from trading, suspension from listing or
     delisting of our common stock by the Nasdaq National Market, the New York
     Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange for five (5) consecutive
     trading days (excluding disruptions from business announcements that result
     in any halt(s) in trading of not more than three (3) days on each occasion)
     and other than as a result of the suspension of trading in securities on
     such market in general;

o    the Company's failure to comply with conversions of the series A preferred
     stock after a conversion notice is submitted due to limitations imposed by
     the Exchange Cap;

o    specified breaches of representations, warranties, covenants (that are not
     cured in fewer than ten (10) days) or terms of the documents delivered in
     connection with the purchase and sale of the series A preferred stock which
     would have a material adverse effect on the Company; or

o    any of the shares of series A preferred stock have not been converted into
     common stock on June 14, 2003.

If the Company is unable to effect a redemption of all the shares of series A
preferred stock submitted for redemption, it will redeem a pro rata amount from
each holder.

Upon any sale of all or substantially all our assets, or a recapitalization,
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger with or into another
company in which we are not the surviving entity, the Company will obtain from
the acquiring person or entity a written agreement whereby the other corporation
will assume all of its obligations under the series A preferred stock.

The holders of the series A preferred stock are not entitled to receive
dividends. The holders of the series A preferred stock have preemptive rights to
subscribe for any additional shares of any class of our capital stock or for any
issue of bonds, notes or other securities convertible into any class of our
capital stock. The holders of the series A preferred stock have no voting rights
except as provided by law, and except to the extent such holders own common
stock.

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding
up, the holders of the series A preferred stock are entitled to receive in cash
out of the Company's assets, whether from capital or from earnings available for
distribution to our stockholders, before any amount shall be paid to any class
junior in rank to the series A preferred stock, an amount per share of series A
preferred stock equal to $7,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends.

Warrants

In connection with the sale of the series A preferred stock, the Company issued
to the purchasers warrants to purchase 857,500 shares of common stock. Each
warrant has an exercise price of $10.50 per share and expires on June 14, 2005
(subject to extension). The warrant is subject to anti-dilution provisions in
the event the Company sells common stock or securities convertible or
exercisable into common stock at a price less than $10.50, subject to
adjustment.


                                      A-2


Additionally, upon not less than 30 days advance notice, the Company may redeem
the warrants at a price of $0.10 per warrant but only if the closing sale price
for the Company's common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrant equals or
exceeds 200% of the exercise price then in effect for a period of 20 consecutive
trading days ending at least three days prior to the date of the notice of
redemption.

The warrant holder may designate a "cashless exercise option." This option
entitles the warrant holders to elect to receive fewer shares of common stock
without paying the cash exercise price. The number of shares to be issued will
be determined by a formula based on the total number of shares to which the
warrant holder is entitled, the current market value of the common stock and the
applicable exercise price of the warrant.
