8. CONVERSION OF CLASS B PREFERRED SHARES AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS.
---------------------------------------------------------- ---------
8.1 Conversion of Preferred Shares. Each Purchaser may, at its option,
------------------------------
at any time and from time to time, after conversion of the Note and amendment of
the Articles of Incorporation as contemplated by Section 6.6 above, convert all
or any portion of the Class B Preferred Shares into Common Stock at the rate and
upon the terms and conditions and subject to the adjustments set forth in the
Certificate.
8.2 Exercise of Warrants. Each Purchaser may, at its option, exercise
---------------------
any Warrant, or any portion thereof, after conversion of the Note and issuance
of the Warrants, and after amendment of the Articles of Incorporation as
contemplated by Section 6.6 above, in exchange for Common Stock at the rate and
upon the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Warrant Agreement.
8.3 Underlying Shares Fully Paid; Reservation of Common Stock. The
-------------------------------------------------------------
Company covenants and agrees that all Underlying Shares shall be issued upon the

exercise referred to in Section 8.2 and shall, upon issuance in accordance with
the terms of the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and the
Warrant Agreements, respectively, be fully paid and non-assessable, and that the
issuance thereof shall not give rise to any preemptive rights on the part of any
Person. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will at all
times from and after the Shareholder Meeting have authorized and reserved a
sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock for the purpose of issuing the
Underlying Shares.
8.4 Adjustment of Number of Shares. The number of shares of Common
----------------------------------
Stock issuable upon conversion of Class B Preferred Shares as well as the number

adjustment from time to time as set forth in the Certificate and in the Warrant
Agreements.
9. PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS.
------------------
9.1 After conversion of the Notes, each Purchaser and its transferees,
successors and assigns (each, a "Holder") shall be entitled to a preemptive
------
right to purchase its pro rata share of all or any part of any New Securities
--------
(as defined) which the Company may, from time to time, sell and issue. Such
Holder's pro rata share, for purposes of this preemptive right, is the ratio
---------
that the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Class B
Preferred Shares held by such Holder (including any additional shares of Class B
Preferred Shares issued to such holder) are convertible plus the number of
shares of Common Stock then held by the Holder as a result of the conversion of
Class B Preferred Shares together with the number of shares such Holder is
entitled to purchase pursuant to Warrants bears to the total number of shares of
Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis.
9.2 Except as set forth in the next sentence, "New Securities" shall
--------------
mean any shares of capital stock of the Company, including Common Stock, whether
now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase said shares
of capital stock, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become,
convertible into said shares of capital stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
"New Securities" does not include (i) securities offered to the public generally
pursuant to a registration statement filed with the Commission and declared
effective under the Securities Act,(ii) securities issued in connection with the
acquisition of another entity by the Company by merger, purchase of
substantially all of the assets or other reorganization or in a transaction
governed by Rule 145 under the Securities Act, (iii) options exercisable for
Common Stock issued to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the
Company outstanding as of the first date on which Class B Preferred Shares were
first issued (the "First Issue Date") or options issued to employees, officers,
----------------
directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to the Employee Plan, the
Executive Plan, the Director Plan, the Market Value Appreciation Plan, or the
Pay for Performance Plan or a stock option plan adopted by the Board of
Directors of the Company and approved by a majority of the holders of Class B
Preferred Shares after the First Issue Date, (iv) shares of Common Stock issued
on conversion of outstanding Class B Preferred Shares; (v) shares of Common
Stock issued upon exercise of rights, convertible securities or warrants (A)
outstanding as of the First Issue Date or (B) issued in connection with the sale
of Class B Preferred Shares hereunder, (vi) stock issued pursuant to any rights
or agreements, including without limitation convertible securities, options and
warrants, provided, that, the preemptive rights established by this Section 9
-------- ----
shall apply with respect to the initial sale or grant by the Company of
interests in its capital stock pursuant to such rights or agreements, or (vii)
stock issued in connection with any stock split, stock dividend or
recapitalization by the Company.
9.3 In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New
Securities, it shall give the Holders of the Notes or Class B Preferred Shares
written notice of its intention, describing the type of New Securities, and the
price and terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each Holder
of Class B Preferred Shares shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt
of any such notice to agree to purchase up to its respective pro rata share of
--- ----
such New Securities for the price and upon the terms specified in the notice by
giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New
Securities to be purchased.
9.4 In the event a Holder fails to exercise such preemptive right
within said thirty-day period (each such Holder a "Non-Electing Holder"), the
-------------------
Company shall give the Holders that have elected to exercise such preemptive
right within said thirty-day period (each such Holder an "Electing Holder")
---------------
written notice of each Non-Electing Holder's failure to exercise its preemptive
right to purchase its pro rata share of the New Securities (such securities, the
--- ----
"Additional New Securities"). Each Electing Holder shall have ten (10) days
---------------------------
from the date of receipt of any such notice to elect to purchase up to its pro
---
rata share of the Additional New Securities by giving written notice to the
----
Company and stating therein the quantity of such New Securities to be purchased.
9.5 In the event any Electing Holder fails to exercise its preemptive
right pursuant to Section 9.4 within said forty-day period, the Company shall
have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to
which the sale of Additional New Securities covered thereby shall be closed, if
at all, within sixty (60) days from the date of said agreement) to sell the
Additional New Securities not elected to be purchased by Electing Holders at the
price and upon the terms no more favorable to the purchasers of such securities
than specified in the Company's notice. In the event the Company has not sold
the Additional New Securities or entered into an agreement to sell the
Additional New Securities within said ninety-day period (or sold and issued
Additional New Securities in accordance with the foregoing within sixty (60)
days from the date of said agreement), the Company shall not thereafter issue or
sell any of such Additional New Securities, without first offering such
securities in the manner provided above.
9.6 In the event no Holders exercise their respective preemptive right
pursuant to Section 9.3 within said thirty-day period, the Company shall have
ninety (90) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to
which the sale of New Securities covered thereby shall be closed, if at all,
within sixty (60) days from the date of said agreement) to sell the New
Securities not elected to be purchased by Holders of the Class B Preferred
Shares at the price and upon the terms no more favorable to the purchasers of
such securities than specified in the Company's notice. In the event the
Company has not sold the New Securities or entered into an agreement to sell the
New Securities within said ninety-day period (or sold and issued New Securities
in accordance with the foregoing within sixty (60) days from the date of said
agreement), the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any of such New
Securities, without first offering such securities in the manner provided above.
